SAND For FILTERS.

The demand is increasing for the
finer grades of sand suitable for filters
for city water supplies and for various
manufacturing plants. According to
specifications prepared by the geolog-
zeal survey, filter sand should be clean
sand with sharp or rounded grains. 1t
should be entirely free from clay, dust
or organic impurities and should, If nee
essary, be washed to remove such mate
rails. The grains should be of hard ma
terials which will not disintegrate and
not less than % millimeter nor more
than .35 millimeter in size. Such sand
should not contain more than 2 pei
cent by weight of lime and magnesia
taken together as carbonates.

LOOKING BEFORE LEAPING.

If there is any type of folly that
needs discouraging more than another
in a considerable class of folks it is
that Of pulling up stakes in a locality
where there has been fair measure
of contentment and work to do where
with to earn the necessalies of life
and hiking off to some boom section on
the strength of the outlandish claims
of real estate and railway immigra-
ton agents. A number of instances of
this sort have lately come to the writ
ers attention where the victims not
only knew mighty little about the re-
sources of the sections to which they
were going. but didn't have enough
money saved up so that they could
afford to buy tickets back home for
the purpose of getting their families.
This proposition sounds pretty luny,
We'll admit but the information comes
straight as string. In a good many
other cases of a type familiar doubt
less to many readers of this depart
ment home seekers have not been as
badly strapped as this. but they have
had so little to go on in a money way
that when crop reverses have struck
them through their own inexperience
or unfavorable climatic conditions they
have suffered the severest hardships
before they could get squared away
and on their feet. The above is not
written to discourage any one from
seeking a new home where it is be-
lieved conditions for getting ahead will
be more favorable. but to urge the
exercise of good sense and a reason
able amount of caution. Doing so will
In the end save deal of grief and dis

ABOUT WHITE DIARRHEA.

Studies that have been made in the
past three or four years by eastern
poultry experts show some very inter
estlng facts in connection with the de-
structive disease known as white diar-
rhea. Careful experiments carried on
at Storrs. Conn, and at experiment
stations in Rhode Island and Mary.
land show that the disease known
as white diarrhea is caused by bac
terial organism, that the original source
of infection is in the mother hen, that
eggs laid by infected hens contain the
organisms. that chicks produced from
these eggs have the disease when
Matched. that the germs of the disease
may be transmitted from one chick to
another through the medium of food
and water, that there is little danger Of
infection after the chicks are four or
five days old and that the infection
does not pass readily from one adult
fowl to another. The means found Of
combating the disease seem to be the
rejection of infected breeding stock
and the feeding of sour milk, which
seems to be helpful both as a means
of checking the disease and as a pre-
ventive. Medical treatment of any kind
was found practically useless either be-
fore or after the disease was contract
ed. Sanitary quarters, good feed and
ample range are considered more effec.
tive in eliminating the disease than
any cures that science can produce.

We HAVE FAITH IN
THIS STOMACH REMEDY

A woman customer said to us the other
day, "Say, you ought to tell everyone in
town about Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. L
would myself if | could" That set us to
thinking. So many people have used
them and have 30 enthusiastical sounded
their praises both to us and their friends,
that we had an idea you all knew about
them. But, in the chance that some of
you who suffer from indigestion, heart
burn, dyspepsia, or some other stomach
complain, don't know about them-we
are writing THE.
They contain Bismuth and Pepsin, two
of the greatest digestive aids known to
medical science. They soothe and COM
fort the stomach, promote the secretion
of gastric juice, help to quickly digest
the food and convert it into rich, red
blood, and improve the action of the
bowels. We believe them to be the best
remedy made for indigestion and dys-
pepsia. We certainly wouldn't offer
them TO you entirely at our risk unless
we felt sure they would do you a lot Of
good. II Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets do
not relieve your indigestion, check the
heartburn. and make it possible for you
to eat what you like whenever you like,
come back and get your money.
Sold only at the more than 1000
Rexall Stores, and in this town only by
us. Three sizes. 25c SOC and $1.00.

NO WONDER THERE'S DOUBT.

1t is small wonder that q whole lot
of farmers who have been up against
the loss of hogs during the past eight
or ten months are puzzled in getting a
solution of the matter in view of the
figures published by the Breeders Ga
zette in regard to the causes of the
death and sickness of hogs that had
been shipped to Chicago during the
past season. Postmortem examina
lions Of dead and slaughtered hogs
have been made by qualified veteri-
narians, and these show that but 10
per cent Of the hogs classed at ship
ping points as afflicted with cholera
have shown meteorological evidence
of being i'll or having been i'll with the
disease. Subtracting this means that
30 per cent of these so called cholera
hogs have been afflicted with other
diseases. Among these typhoid fever
and pneumonia have been the chief
causes of losses, while many have been
afflicted with worms, tuberculosis and
other ailments. The figures given by
the Gazette seem almost preposterous;
but, taking them as the truth, it seems
to indicate a prolific reason why pure
hog cholera serum, administered under
the most favorable conditions, has had
little or no effect in checking losses
from supposed hog cholera in so many
cases. Applying the serum treatment
to hogs ill with typhoid or pneumonia
would do no more good than injecting
it into the bark of a nearby tree. In
view of this situation it means that
the character Of the plague prevailing
in a neighborhood should be definitely
determined before well hogs should be
given the serum treatment as a pre-
ventive. In the case of q typhoid cpl
demic incubation might be given, but
typhoid serum would have to be used.
More than this, typhoid fever is a filth
disease, and this should suggest both
the wisdom and necessity of keeping
food and water supplies free from filth.
