That's What John Bunyon johnson,
the Well-Known Automobile
Salesman, Says of Martins
Liver Medicine

One of the latest to add his I'M
qualified endorsement to Martins
Liver Medicine is John Bunyon
Johnson, of Macon, Ga. In a letter
dated August Is, 1917, he says:
1T affords me pleasure to report
that l have taken Martins Liver
Medicine and obtained most desir-
able results. Martins Liver Medi-
cine is pleasant to the taste, does
not grippe nor inconvenience the
taker in any way. 1t acts positively
and yet gently upon the liver and it
is my opinion that it is superior to
any liver medicine sold"
Martins Liver Medicine is strictly
vegetable in ingredients, contains
no poisonous calomel, is pleasant to
take and is sold with the standing
guarantee that if it does not give
the effect desired, the empty bottle
can be returned to the drug store
and the SOC paid for it will be re-
funded. AS a medicine for consti
patton, sick headache or other liver
and stomach troubles, Martins
Liver Medicine is without a peer.
Sold by druggists everywhere.

ed in the locality, and have shipped
the seed to Idaho Falls to be clean.
ed.
w. H. Scott, of Pingree, is report
ed to have harvested some very fine
musk melons at his farm.
Heber Austin, chief agriculturist
for the Utah-Idaho Sugar company
reports that great values have been
found to exist in the beet tops if
cared for properly, and at our re-
quest he outlined the methods to
be followed.
When beet tops lie in the field
and cure, and then are rained on,
they lose value rapidly. If placed
in the silo they are worth about half
as much as alfalfa hay. 1t costs
from 81 to $3.50 a ton to gather
beet tops and place them in the silo
In the silo the beet tops are con-
sidered equal to the same amount
of green corn.
The farmer who has no silo can
preserve the beet tops in a pit like
potatoes, as has been demonstrated
in Colorado. The way it was done
there was to scrape out an open pit
as large as is desired, and pile the
dirt on the banks to increase the
depth. If the pit is dug four feet
deep, the dirt piled on the sides will
give total depth of about six feet.
Dump the beet tops into a depth
of about IS inches and cover with
six inches of straw, keep them lamp
ed or rolled as compact as possible.
Driving the wagons in on them is
good, and a roller helps. The idea
is to get all the air out and leave
a solid mass of tops and straw. Go
on filling in till it is rounded up
full, then put on the final covering
of straw, and add few inches of
dirt or manure. Adding some salt
to the mass as it is put in is good,
but is not necessary. 1t will heat
and settle and turn white and tough

like cheese, and in winter all kinds
of stock will eat it. 1t should be
fed as part of their ration, but not
as whole feed basis. Introduce it
gradually and remember that it is
a relish to add value to the rest of
their feed just as chow-chow or fruit
salad is a relish that adds to the
value Of human food.
Mr.. Austin has seen this tested
out to such an extent that he is
spending $1,000 storing beet tops
by this method on his own place,
and he has plenty of hay too. He
thinks that by utilizing his beet tops
he will have hay to sell or can feed
more stock He says every farmer
who has a few acres of beets ought
to have a few steers to eat up his
straw and beet tops and whatever
grain he has to market. If man
has no money to buy and has a
reputation for square dealing,
bank will finance him in such mat
ter. If he can handle a carload of
steers, say 20 animals, for every ton
of beef he buys to feed he sells a
ton of fat beef later at an increased
price, and he also sells the amount
of beef that he added to the original
ton, and he gets better prices for the
feed they consumed, for fat beef is
higher in the latter part of winter
and spring than stock beef is in the
fall. He also adds to the fertility
Of his soil, and this in turn adds to
the value of his next crop, and for
two or three years afterwards. 1t
gives the farmer near the factory
a chance to combine some pulp with
his hay, grain and straw, and con-
vert them all into high-priced prod
ucts instead of losing part of the
good feed already produced on the
place.
L. E. Stock bridge, of Ft. Hall, re-
ports that he sowed half an acre
of billiondollar grass on Ross Fork |
bottoms late last spring, and it grew
to height of over five feet on the
level of the yatch, while some of it |
grew to seven feet. When cut and |
cured he found that stock were very
fond of it.

FACKRELL FAMILY REUNION

N. P Fackrell and wife left Fri.
day afternoon for Salt Lake City
for conference, and to attend the re.
union of the Fackrell family al
Woods Cross on Monday.
Out at Thomas there are several
of the Fackrell families, and two or
three of the men have initials that
look or sound about alike. AS to
size they are quite different, but
telephone calls from P. P. Fackrell
may be thought to come from T. P.
Fackrell and who would know
whether it is the big one or the
little one?
One day when N. P. Fackrell was
coming to town, his brother T. P.
told him to bring out a horse collar
for him of certain size. He got
the collar and told the salesman to
charge it to T. P. Fackrell. Later
in the season P. P. Fackrell dropped
in at that place to pay his bill and
on observing an item for horse
collar stated that he had not bought
one, and paid all Of the bill but
that. The bookkeeper reasoned that
If it was not for T. P. Fackrell it
must be for some other Fackrell,
and that if he just kept charging
1t to one after another he would
eventually find the right one, and
he did. He got his money.
But that isn't the way it turns
out when one of them rings up and
says his wife wants some butter

PORTLAND MARKET LETTER

Conditions in the North Portland
yards at the weeks opening have
been healthy. The tone of the mar
ket thruout is good and the receipts
show a volume of business that il
very gratifying.
Cattle
The string of cattle offered in the
yards, generally speaking, was bet.
ter than those offered at the week s
opening previous, but not any better
than those coming at the close of
the week. The general range of
prices in the cattle pens is the same
as for the previous week with breed
er trading very active. The follow
ing quotations are current: Best
beef steers, 9.00-975; good beef
steers, 7.50-S75; best beef cows,
6.75-7.50 ordinary cows, 4.OO-6.75;
best heifers, 7.00-S.OO; bulls, 400
$50; calves, 7.OO-9.5O; stockers
and feeders, 4.00-7.25.
Hogs
The hog alleys were treated to a
little aristocratic society this week
by the presentation of the prize VIM
ners from the Salem fair. and the
porkers of the Marion County Pig
club, some of which, altho they came
here on contract, are Said to have
brought as high as 20 cents a pound.
Aside from this, one load of strictly
prime light packers crossed the
scales at $3.50, which was the top
for the day. The general market
range is as follows: Prime light,
S.15-1S.25; prime heavy 1900
1915; pigs 16.OO-17.25; bulk 1900
1926.
The volume Of the business in the |
sheep houses continues to increase at |
satisfactory rate, but the increase
loes not keep pace with the demand. |
The packers are in need of more
butcher stuff, and the demand for
eeders and ewes is very strong. The
quotations have advanced a notch,
md still the sales are practically all
made at the top end Of the quota
ions as on the previous week. The
figures are current: West
rn lambs, 13.60-14.O0; valley lambs
2.75-13.50; yearlings 11.25-11.5O;
ives, 8.0O-9.50.
RAISE More Hogs'-Hoover
The necessity of encouraging the
armers to raise three times as
1any hogs this year as they did last
ear was emphasized by Herbert
loover, Saturday, in addressing a
bod supply conference composed of
TENDERS of the Pennsylvania com
littee on public safety and others
lterested in the food problems.
We are sending abroad more hog
roducts at the present time than
e produce" he asserted.

.Rhinehart Yerke was in from his
dry farm north of Moreland, Fri
day, and was investigating tractors
for blowing. He had been consult
ing the Cub reports and wanted to
see the Nielsen tractors at work.
]. G.. Patterson had a fine war
garden on his place at Presto, and
in our August report we predicted
that his water melons and musk
melons would not mature. The
warm season has been so extended
that the Pattersons have enjoyed
lot of melons ripe and luscious.
w. G. Cannon, who lives a couple
of miles west of Snake river bridge
had few sweet potato plants this
year and raised some nice tubers,
altho he neglected them for some
time when they needed attention.
He is going to try some more next
year and try to give them a chance
in the world.
Mrs. e. L. Garst, who has been
doing residence on a homestead
northwest of Moreland and east of
Taber, has gone to Pocatello for a
few months leave of absence.
Fred Bennett, of Presto, had a
large tract of navy beans that were
planted late, and prediction was
made that they would not mature.
We have report from a passer-by
to the effect that he threshed 35Ol
pounds from a few rows of brown
beans, and prospects were good for
the navies.

Closing Vermont Schools in Winter.

Before there is any talk about closing
schools in Vermont we ought TO close all
club rooms, poor rooms, bowling alleys
and various other places of entertain
ment, Closing the schools would not
only be an economic loss far beyond the
value OF the fuel burned 10 keep the
schoolhouses habtable, but ii would be
an injustice on the children and the
teachers. There is almost nothing that
the children can do at this time of year
in the way of gainful occupation to
themselves or in help for the common
cause of the country. Closing the schools
would be throwing away the time OF the
scholars and to large extent of the
teachers. Next summer the children can
help in the gardens and on the farms
and they can devote their time when not
employed TO outdoor activities of help
full physical nature. There ought to be a
lot of other closing before the schools are
shut up The present conditions do not
demand such sacrifice, Brattleboro Re
