BUMPS ITcHED ON BODY

Route No. 3. Cooper. Texas.-'T was
taken with an itching and my whole
body got covered with little red
bumps. It would itch till I would
scratch the blood out Of my skin and
then It was just like fire. I could not
sleep at night until I got Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. I would battle In
warm water with Cuticura Soap and
then put on the Cuticura Ointment
and I got well quick. Two weeks
from the time I commenced to use
Cuticurs Soap and Ointment I was
sound and well and ] have not been
bothered since.
MY baby had q breaking out on his

YOUNG MAN WELCOMED SIGN

Senator A. o. Bacon Of Georgia tells
this story of Colonel Clayton, q fiery
southerner who went out Of the Union
when his state did. and fought bravely
through the war. He refused to be
reconstructed" after the war was
over.
"'Once Q Confederate always q Con-
federate,' he was wont to say, and
although he recovered from the Bit
terness engendered In the four years
Of strife he regarded himself az an
alien in the restored Union, and re-
fused to vote or to exercise any Of the
duties Of q citisen.
When the war with Spain broke
out, however. the old IRE burned In
his eye. and he offered NO objection
when his son. Q stalwart specimen Of
young manhood. joined the national
army and went to Cuba to fight.
"One day. after the battle of San
Juan. the young man received Q letter
from him.

reading 1t. father II back in the Union

PROTECTION FOR THE SHEEP
Rowing. Nondsseript Dogs Do Most
Damage and May Be Kept Away
BY UsIng Woven Wire Fences.

The dog question il a serious one in
many sections. and better state legis-
lation is needed to protect flocks from
the ravages of worthless ours. Woven
wire fences will turn dogs. While It
is. expensive to fence large pastures
in this way. smaller fields devoted to
forage crops will carry the flock In Q
more healthy condition and require
much less outlay for fencing. The
whole forage crop area can be fenced
and lower portable fences used for
combining the sheep to the particular
crop ready for grazing.
It is seldom that the highly-bred and
well-kept dogs attack sheep. The row
ing nondescripts do most Of the dam
age. Communities in which the ma
jority of people consider sheep to be
of more importance than dogs win
have q sentiment that is not healthful
for dogs that travel Independently.

WHY BOYS LEAVE THE FARM
Texas View Of Problem Which May
BE One Of Dollars and Gents
Other Reasons Given.

Many reasons have been advanced
al Of which are probably more or less
true. AZ to the cause of the American
farmer and his son, especially the lat
ter, leaving the farm for the city. We
suspect however. that the fact that
they have been unable to derive a
reasonable revenue from their labor
and Investment has not been sum.
GENTLY stressed. remarks the Dallas
News. II there IL one thing more
than another that 10 calculated to
make one dissatisfied with his lot II
10 the failure to receive q reasonable
return for his work. This added to
several other things. such a. lack Of
satisfactory social opportunities, alb
sence Of entertainment and amuse-
ment and consequent monotony and
% on. naturally induces discomfort
A recent writer brings out the matter
Of insufficient dividends from the
farmers labor and Investment rather
strongly when he quotes some data
from the United States census fie.
ures. He says:
THE average farmer in the United
States tills farm Of 1873 acres and
has an average investment Of 96,443.
OF this investment his buildings rep
resent 1894, his implements and ma.
chinery $199. There IL an average
mortgage on this average farm of
Sits. bearing an average of six Der
cent. His gross income is $980.55.
and out Of this he pays an average
expense account Of $340.14. His inter.
est on the mortgage averages $1O2. 80.
80 that his income after all charges
are deducted IL $53750. On this he
must live. educate his family and have
fun"
From which It IL at once seen that
'the average American farmer" IL not
receiving reasonable returns for his
time. labor and money. With this
condition prevailing. II is not at all
diflicult for him to discover other lacks
and unsatisfactory conditions, the re-
suit Of which IL 20 often removal to
the city. or at least quitting the farm
for the town by his sons. It therefore
Is manifest that the most potent In.
fuence toward keeping the country
boy on the farm" will prove to be
better return for his work and Invest
ment Just how this influence is to
be brought about depends largely upon
the farmer himself for the very good
reason that 1t Is he who will have to
increase his revenue by improved
methods. by the study of what crops
are most likely to bring a proportion
ately high price. and In this he should
have the cooperation Of those of other
callings In receiving the best possible
values for what he has to sell. A good
income Is very effective In producing
