behind In everything else. No battle
on the European field of war has been
fought more earnestly or with greater
ferocity and with happier results, for
there were no dead or wounded after
the noise of the guns had ceased and
the smoke had cleared away.
Trained From Cradle.
Japan is nation of soldiers. They
train them from the cradle. Hetaisan
is favorite game with the small boys.
Often the narrow streets are block
AIDED with squads of small, kimono-
clad figures-shoulders erect and with
tiny paper flags and wooden sticks for
guns, If not in the act of fighting, be-
ing put through innumerable drills by
a small captain. They are put into
uniforms as soon as they leave kinder
garten. All government schools in
towns of any size are military schools,
where boys get the training of soldiers
along with how to read and write.
Every man must do military service
at the age Of twenty-one. They are
divided into four classes, according to
physical perfectness. First-class men
enter the army at once and do three
years straight service. Second and
third classes do several months of the
year for three years, then go into the
reserves, subject to be called out at
any time. Even the fourth class,
normal, get a few weeks of training
each year for three years. Only the
deaf, dumb and blind or physically dis
abled escape military duty entirely.
Well Fed and Neat.
The expense OF the army to the gov
eminent is very small, considering Its
size. 1t takes very little food to keep
them "well fed" A bit Of beef is add
ed to the daily fish and rice when some
unusually hard training is being done.
In appearance they are neat and
clean. Uniforms much the same as
those of our own soldiers are worn
blue flannel in winter and khaki
trimmed In red for summer Puttees
are worn with foreign" shoes, and
after never having worn anything but
straw sandals or wooden geta Except
for the few who were fortunate enough
to have attended military schools
where uniforms similar to those of the
soldier are worn) getting accustomed
to the foreign shoes is not the least
of hardships of military training.
The regular soldiers are paid about
yen 1.50 Tor rs cents gold) per month,
for tobacco and spending money, ev-
erything else being furnished them.
To US this seems an absurdly small
sum, but In Japan, where the cost of
living is so low, this seems to provide
very comfortably for the modest needs
Of the japanese, who have practiced
self-dcnial from infancy.
The patriotic spirit is absolutely ma
tional. 1t has been instilled into them
since Japan was nation, and is one
of their most marked characteristics.
In the days when the old feudal lords
and daimios ruled the land, before the
| western civilization reached them
when they had so many other things
| to think Of, 1t was even greater than
1t Is now. For a man to give his life
in defense of his lord and master was
not only a duty, but great honor, a
thing which he would go out of his
way to obtain, for In this manner he
| might bring honor and a great name
to his family which could be handed
down from generation to generation.

PRICES OF FARM PRODUCTS.

Commenting on the silly boycott
Of farm products by a few society
danes in some OF the cities, Home
and Farm makes the following
very timely remarks:
The discussion OF prices of farm
products has spread all over the country
during the past few monthe. The
wonder is that this problem, how to
live at present prices, has not attracted
the attention OF the country before this.
Surely the price OF butter and eggs is
Of little importance compared with the
price OF -four and meat, also farm pro-
ducts; or compared with the price Of
coal, OF household furniture, of cloth
ing, and OF building materials, which
are not products of the farm in their
finished form.
The farmers have the same right to
complain Of the high cost Of living.
They pay their proportion OF the taxes
and they pay their double proportion
Of high freight rates, These rates are
higher than they ought to be because
Of the high price of materials that
enter into the building and mainten-
ance of railroads. The prices OF these
materials are kept up at an abnormal
range, avowedly for the purpose OF in
surfing the prosperity ofthe manutactur-
ers and the men in the iron and steel
regions OF the North and South.
If there is to be general movement
for reducing the price OF farm products,
or if the government at Washington
takes any steps with this end in view,
the farmers should demand full con-
sideration OF their claims to cheap
materials entering into the production
OF crops, entereing into the Transport
tation Of crops, entering into the
maintenance OF the home. The time
has passed when the government can
afford to do anything for the protection
OF manufacturing and mercantile and
transportation interests at the expense
OF the farmer and leaving the farmer
unprotected even in our home markets.

CALOMEL DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes into sour bile, making
you sick and you lose
a days work.

Calomel saivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into it,
causing cramping and nausea
If you feel bilious, headachy, consti-
pated and all knocked out, just 60 to
your druggist and get a so cent bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is harm
less vegetable substitute for dangerous
calomel, Take a spoonful and if ii
doesn't start your liver and straighten
you up better and quicker than nasty
calomel and without making you sick,
you just go back and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides,
it may salivate you, while if you take
Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition and ready
for work or play, It's harmless, pleas
ant and safe to give to childrenj they
like it.

increase in price. Thursday
$4,000 pounds of tobacco was sold
at an average of 1882 per hun
dred; leaf brought from $11.75 to
$3.50 and Tugs from $40 to $11.75.
One hundred and twenty-five
thousand pounds were sold at an
average of $12.16 per hundred.
W. J. Pearson sold 1860 pounds
of tobacco on the Farmers Loose
