THE wool market remains inactive as far as

Farmers Are Warned

Madison, Wis.-The State Depart
ment ofAgriculture has issued warn
ing to farmers concerning the low nu-
tritive value Of a new stock feed that
is now on the market. Millet bran,
the offal obtained in the manufacture
of millet flour, has low value as feed
stuff. An analysis in the feed inspec-
tion laboratory of the department
showed that it had about the same
composition as oat bulls and, there
fore, the feed belongs in the class
with roughage, such as hays and
straws and not with concentrates, such
as middlings The product looks very
much like wheat middlings.

London, Aug. 14.-Many old
theories regarding the treatment of
tuberculosis are disputed by DR..
Marcus Peterson, resident. medical
officer of the Brompton hospital,
and longtime superintendent of var
ious important sanatoria.
He holds that: -
Pine trees do not help to cure con-
sumption.
Great attitudes are not necessary
for consumptive patient.
No special diet is required.
A sea voyage or visit to the sea-
side may prove worthless.
Emigration or change of air is
not valuable.
There is no special value in a
warm climate.
If any climate hastened the cure
of tuberculosis, DR.. Peterson says,
then the climate of respective
health resorts" should kill all the
tuberculi bacilli in the neighborhood

says, that all alleged health resorts
have constant death rate of native
residents from the disease.

and sanitarium in a London sium

and who had other necessary qrali-
fications--a temperamental under

of old France to visitors.

Nothing is inaccessible, and smart
hotels have sprung up in full opera

on a kind of inauguration with
Comte Raoul dArnaud of the
Touring club, and M. Charles La
faurie of the French foreign Office.
Among other things, we saw the
antique palace in the clouds. And
we saw the fair sex crowding to it,
drawn by natural curiosityAbecause
they had been forbidden the whole
territory for 1000 years.
The palace is called the Grande
Chartreuse.
II is the desert land, high up i'll
the mountains.
On dizzy Alpine heights there is
this vast deserted palace. In a
chaos of gigantic rocks, chaos OF
lightning struck pine forests, above
the clouds, its hundred pointed tow
ers swim in silent sky.
Women Forbidden, Entrance.
For 1000 years no woman was
permitted to set foot inside the vast
and lonely palace guarding the
snow line under its $4,000 square
yards OF roofs, covering IA acres.
For 900 years the entire desert
principally was forbidden even the
