A Ml11lEBIIAy INQUIRY
Answered by the Statement of Mid
dlebury Resident.

Answered by the Statement of a Mid
dlebury Resident.
When first the long series of reports of
Middlebury people who have been re-
lieved by Doan's Kidney Pills were pub
lished in the local press, great enthusiasm
and interest were aroused. But Middle
bury is now inquiring "How are these
people keeping today? How has the
benefit they received withstood the test
of time?' For that, after all, is the
essential test of a cure. On this point
doubt can no longer exist. for after
many years those who have been cured
emphatically declare their cures to be
lasting.
w. w. Counter, "a North Pleasant
street, Middlebury, says; Nothing has
changed my high opinion of Doan's
Kidney Pills. They still have my en-
dorsement. While have had no symp-
toms of kidney trouble since Doan's
Kidney Pills cured me nearly three
years ago, another of the family has
since been cured. This experience has
increased my confidence in the curative
powers of this remedy. You may con-
tinue the publication of my former
statement"
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mr.. Coulter
had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props, Buff

SOME NEW PLANTS.

This year the department of agri-
culture has distributed in all some 90
900 packages of seeds of new forage
plants and grains, chiefly feterita and
Sudan grass, which are particularly
suited to the semiarid conditions found
in the west and southwest Nothwith-
standing the extreme drought Of last
year, these two and some other new
dry belt crops came to maturity and
furnished forage where practically all.
other crops failed. Feterita is a grain
and forage sorghum similar to Katlil
and milo while the Sudan grass is a
wild form of sorghum somewhat
coarser than millet. Among other new
crops, the seeds of which were dis
tributed. were the Amraoti and Ban
gala varieties of field peas, also new
strains Of wheat, millet and TeWry
beans, which latter are especially
drought resistant and give much prom

SOME SUGGESTIVE FIGURES.

Here are some interesting facts that
ought to furnish suggestion or two
for corn growers. In no ten year pc
riod in the history of corn growing in
the United States has the average yield
per acre exceeded twenty eight bush
els, while no state has averaged for
any year over tfty-four bushels per
acre. In contrast to these figures is
the significant fact that in most every
section of the country that pretends
to raise corn yields of more than a
hundred bushels per acre have been Sc
cured. With such low average yields,
1t is humiliating to contemplate what
the production per acre must be of
those growers who bring the average
for the country down to so low level.
