MARK FOR SOLDIERS GRAVES
United States Government Provides
Tombstones Free and Pays
Freight to Destination.

The United States government has
provided 600, 900 markers for the
graves of soldiers. From two marble
quarries, one at Lee, Mass. and n
at Rutland, Vt, all these tombstones
have been taken. Lee has furnished
300 900 markers in the last 35 years
and is turning out gravestones at the
rate Of 10000 a year.
Each marker is three feet long, n
foot wide and four inches thick and
weighs 200 pounds. Just under the
rounded top is outlined an inlaid
shield and within this is cut the name,
age, company, rank and regiment OF
HI soldiers, sailor or marine whose
grave it is to mark.
The stones are shipped usually by
the carload to certain distributing
points named by the war department.
For the New England states Boston
is the distributing place, New York
for the middle states, Chicago for the
middle west, while Denver, San Fran
cisco, Atlanta and Houston, Tex, are
other points Of shipment.
Washington has received the great
est number Of these markers. Thou
sands have been set up in Arlington
and other government cemeteries.
Not only does the government fur
nish the tombstone free, but it pays
the freight to it's destination. All that
las to be lone when the stone has
been delivered is to have 1t carried to
she grave from the freight Office and
set up. Many Grand Army posts look
after this.
Hundreds of stones have been SUI
piled to mark the graves Of women
nurses who served in the Civil war.
Nearly all the applications come in
The names of privates or sailors.
Occasionally there is found the name
of a line officer and there have been
occasions when the grave of a staff
officer has been marked. Two gener-
ais and perhaps half a dozen colonies
are buried in cemeteries Of the United
States and have over their grave the
small white stones provided by the
government.

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR

AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation Of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dan

beauty Of the hair, the following spa-
cial treatment Is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura ONT
ment into the parting with a bit OF
soft flannel held over the end Of the
finger. Anoint additional paintings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-

the hair. II is we'll to place a light
covering yer the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning. shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and not water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.

The man who takes proper car Of

To insure success in having good

Eats Freely But

A Little PepSin in a Mild Lava
hUe Promptly Corrected
q Bad INDIGESTION.

Fortunate is the one who can eat
anything" without suffering the tor
lures of dyspepsia, but as few are so
fortunate, care should be taken in the
matter of diet. Eating slowly, masti-
eating the food thoroughly aud taking
a short walk after the heavy meal of
the day will do much towards assisting
digestion. Any grown-up person ought
to know the peculiar foods hat do not
agree, and these should be avoided.
When these common-sense aids fail.
the next thing to do is to take a mild
digestive tonic with laxative proper
ties, and there is none better than DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. 1t contains
the greatest Of all aids to digestion,
good pepsin. 1t has other ingredients
that act mildly on the bowels, which
together form a combination for the
relief OF dyspepsia or Indigestion that
is unsurpassed.
It's action is to tone and strengthen
the stomach and bowel muscles SO
that they can again do their work nat
urally without outside aid, and when

1t is generally conceded that the
best soils for the production OF sugar
beets are the sandy loans and the
clay loans. However, any good soil,
if properly handled, will produce salts
factory sugar beets, provided climatic
conditions are favorable, states Farm
ers' Bulletin sos of the department of
agriculture. In general, more depends
upon the physical condition Of the
soil than upon its strict classification.
Select the field for sugar beets with
reference to the quality Of the sur
face and subsoil, conditions of drain,
age and the fitness to follow the pre-
ceding crops. Plow thoroughly and
deeply in the fall If possible. Make
the seed bed firm below as well as
near the surface. Plant in the spring
as soon as the soil and weather condi-
lions are right. Use plenty of seed
to insure. a good stand. and do not
plant too deep. Hold the moisture in
contact with the seed by use of the
press Wheel and rollers. Cultivate as

5oOn as the rows can be seen, but
DO not throw the dirt over the beets.
Block and thin the beets just as soon
as they are large enough to handle.
Space with reference to the strength
and moisture-holding capacity of the
soil.
Rotate with other crops to improve
the soil condition n to eliminate
pests. Keep plenty Of live stock to
utilize the beet tops and other feed
and supply stable manure. In har-
yesting the beets see that they are
all gathered, properly topped, and as
tree as possible from dirt. Cover the
oeets as soon as topped to prevent
evaporation, and utilize beet tops,
pulp and lime with a view to improv-
ing soil conditions.
The b~y-products of the beet field
and sugar mill that are of particular
Importance to the farmer are the beet
tops, the pulp and the waste lime. If
properly handled, the beets form a
valuable asset for h beet grower,
and in considering the value of a beet
crop they should be reckoned at their
real worth as a stock food. Many
farmers sell their tops at a cash price
ranging from $3.50 to SIS per acre, in
which case the grower is the loser
for the reason that the tops are Of
greater value to him as a stock food,
and If he allows the tops to leave his
farm he loses their manurial value,
consisting of a large part of mineral
plant food taken up by beets in the
process of growth, and also their
humus value, which results from re-
turning the tops to the soil in the
form of stable or barnyard anure
The most economical way to handle
the tops is to gather them into piles
Don after they wilt and before
they become thoroughly dry. In this
condition they can be gathered with
much less loss than would be the case
If they were left scattered over the
ground until dried. After they have
cured in the piles they should be
hauled to the feed yard, where they
should be fed in properly constructed
racks to avoid waste.
Beet pulp is al excellent stock food
This %by-product is the refuse that re-
mains after the beets have been
sliced ana the sugar extracted. AS
a stock food 1t may be used either as
green pulp, that is, just al it comes
from the mill, or it may be dried.
Waste lime is a by-product of the
sugar mill, which under certain con.
ditions is of considerable value to the
farmer for correcting the acid condi.
ton of the soil. Ii is well known that
a soil should De neutral or Slightly
alkaline in order to produce the best
results. Lime has the ability to com
bine with the injurious acids that de,
velop in the soil and thereby render
them neutral. Ordinarily an applica.
ton of from 500 to 1000 pounds OF
waste lime per acre will correct the
acidity and otherwise improve the soil
Poultry as Food.
Although not as many varieties OF
poultry are in common use in the
United States as in Europe, and al.
though eggs form perhaps the most
important part of the total poultry
industry in the United States, enough
birds are raised and sold for their
flesh 10 make poultry an important
tom in the list of foods. says the de
tr1ent OF agriculture. Chickens

are, Of course, far the most common
Of the kinds Of poultry. Next come
turkeys; then ducks n geese, fol-
lowed by capons and squads, the other
varieties, such as guinea fowl, pleas
ants and quail being least common Of
all.
In raising birds for the market spe-
cial %fattening has not heretofore been
practiced in this country with any
thing like the same frequency as in
Europe; but American breeders are
gradually coming to it more and more,
especially on the large poultry farms
which are Springing up in many places.
The extreme methods used SO much
in France are not, however, consid-
cred advantageous by most American
breeders.
Live poultry is very commonly mar
keted, especially in the southern
states, where it is the custom to kill
a short time before cooking, but, con-
sidering the country as a whole, it
is doubtless true that the dressed
birds are marketed more than the
live, and the buyer must depend
mainly on the appearance Of the skin
and flesh to tell him how fresh the
bird is, and whether 1t has been prop
erly dry-plucked or plunged into boil
ding water to MAKE the plucking as
Ter. In most cases, also, the age must
be determined by the pliability of the
breastbone or, in duck and goose. OF
the windpipe.
The methods of cooking poultry IRE
in general the same as those for other
kinds of meat. The tougher the bird
the more cooking will be needed to
make it tender and easily digested.
and the larger it is the more heat will
be required to cook it thoroughly.
AS regards composition poultry does
not differ as much as is commonly
supposed from meat of other domestic
animals used for food. Individual
kinds n specimens, Of course, vary
in the relative amounts of protein and
fat contained, and there are certain
1avors in poultry which differ from
those. in other meat But these diff
ferences are SO small that they are
practically negligible in ordinary diet.
Nor is there as much difference in
digestibility as is often stated. On
the average, poultry is somewhat more

OLD SOLDIERS TALK ON WAR
Veterans Learn of Scientific Names Of
Bones and Organs Injured Dur
ing Some Big Battle.

Three veterans of the Civil wal sat
on a bench OF new, sweet-scented pine
in a wood. The occasion was a
Fourth Of July picnic, and the vet
erans, eating sandwiches and drink
ing lemonade, talked Of war, relates
the Chicago Record-Herald.
Yes, this here" said the first vet
eran, twiddling with a f1attened bull
let that dangled from the n of his
watch chain-"this here entered my
tibia at Bull Run, fractured my tibula,
and tore up my gastrocnemius quite
some"
The second veteran displayed a fiat
tened bullet that served, surrounded
with tiny diamonds, as a scarfpin.
This f~eller,' said he, went
through my radius and ulna."
The third veteran, showing a fat
tened bullet that formed the central
ornament of a massive gold ring,
said:
This ball, friends, vas dug out OF
my deltoid."
The veterans munched their sand.
wiches calmly, and calmly drank their
Lemonade; and an army surgeon re
marked to a bystander, with a wink:
"a queer thing about old soldiers
the world over is that they preserve
as ornaments the bullets that have
wounded them. Another queer thing
is that they always learn the scien,

ness Of digestion, and, If SO, young
birds are more easily digested than
old, and the less-used muscles OF the
chicken, such as the breast. more so
than the much-used tissues Of the legs.
Similarly, white-feshed birds may
be more easily uigested than dark
fieshed, because the fbers of their
flesh are less closely set; but this is
not fully proved. Indeed, very little
is positively known on this subject,
and that little seems to indicate that
the differences in t~horoughness OF dl-

ing has much more to do with the
