FURRED TONGUE NO PROOF
Why 1t Is Supposed to Indicate Diges-
tive Disturbance Never Has
Been Explained.

Just why furred tongue is sup
posed to be an indication of a dis
turbance of the digestive apparatus
has never been explained. The Medi-
cal Record calls to mind "the respected
land feared) spinster in our cOmmu-
nifty a good many years ago who had
her own opinion about doctors. Urged
to consult one of their fraternity
when little indisposed, she would re-
pei the suggestion with scorn. All
they do she would say, is to say,
Lets see your tongue. HOw's your
bowels? Two dollars, please" "''
The editor says he has known physi-
clans of the old school who could di-
agnose case by looking at the
tongue, just as he has known a physi-
clan who could diagnose" case
Of pneumonia in child he had never
seen before when he got ten feet away
from the bed. And what is more, he
could tell which side it was on and
even designate the lobe affected in
some cases."
or course this is sarcasm. The edi-
tor is ridiculing the furred tongue as
a symptom of trouble in the digestive
apparatus.

ASSOCIATIONS ARE A HABIT
We Even Form Clubs Over Question
of Teething Rings VS..

Our passion for getting up associa-
tiOns is a bad symptom OF intellectual
foOlishness. Every trade and profess
sion among us, every interest and
prejudice, every aspiration, hypOthe-
sis or question about a question has
a gang of club members at it's back.
The fashionable mothers get up So
cieties to determine what plays their
children shall see during the hOli-
days. l know of one woman who was
not able to decide whether she should
give rubber ring or a coral to her
teething child or should leave him to
nature and the thumb. She according
ly formed a society. 1t is called the
Ring and Coral association and meets
twice a month. 1t has recently split
into two organizations through the Sc
cession of the antiring and coralites.
BY means of these two societies any
mother may today escape the mental
anguish of making a decision for her
self upon this teething matter.-John

Most soils will give good account
when sown to rape. Land which is
we'll suited to corn production makes
a very excellent soil for rape. How
ever, the heavier soils seem to pro-
duce the largest and most succulent
growth. To prevent injury to the crop,
hogs should not be put ON rape until
1t is about foot high.
1t is often difficult to get hogs to
eat rape at first, if they have not been
accustomed to it. However, they will
eat the rape and soon learn to relish
it if they are turned on it and allowed
no other green feed. Another diff
Guilty is that wet and dewy rape may
cause sores and scabs on the hogs.
Sometimes the skin has the appear
ance of being blistered. This seems
to be more true of white and thin
haired hogs. This may be overcome
by not turning the hogs on rape until
the dew has dried up.

EXCELLENT FEED FOR SWINE
Rape Is Large SuccuIent Plant and
Grows RapidIy-One of Best
Forages for Hogs.

Owing to the fact that rape grows
rapidly, is large, succulent plant and
palatable to hogs, it makes one of the
best swine forages. If rape is not
pastured too closely it will grow up
and make fall pasture. A good growth
Of rape will furnish pasture for about
Is to 20 hogs to the acre.
For pasture purposes the Dwarf
Essex variety is most used. The seed
can be bought usually for eight cents
pound, therefore seeding is done at
small cost, as not more than five
pounds of seed per acre is required

RECENT ARRIVAL HERE
 Is CHARGED WITH LARCENY

The United States marshals office in this city has received instructions to be on the lookout for one Charles F. Covey, who is wanted for the alleged larceny of team of dogs and sled. The description gwen of the person wanted is said to tally with that of Jack Spencer, who left here on Tuesday last for Seward, with William Taylor and bride as passengers.
 Owing to the expense that would be in cured and the fact that the alleged culprit can be readily apprehended upon his arrival st Seward, Deputy Marshal Charles decided not to follow the party for the purpose of arresting Spencer, or Covey.
 When it became known that Spencer was wanted for criminal offense, the friends of Mir and Mrs. Taylor became alarmed and Bob Soutar started out on Friday morn ing in an endeavor to overtake the party.
 Spencer, or Covey, is said to be an ex- soldier but practically nothing IS known here as to his antecedentS. He arrived here a few days ago from the Tolovana country and hearing that MT. Taylor and wife were on their way Outside, contracted to convey them to Seward.
