Lightning strikes loamy soil most
frequently, according to recent inves-
LEGATIONS. Then, in diminishing order,
sandy soil, clay, and chalk. In fact
loamy soil is struck twenty-five times
as often as chalk.

COULD BEAT HANDS SHUCK-

SO, After Being Relieved OF
Dyspepsia BY Tanlac.

MY wife and myself have had
stomach trouble" says Mr. ] A
White, residing on the Leestown
Pike, R. F. d. No. 6, near Lex
ington, KY, land have both been
nervous and run down."
I'VE could not see anything
without suffering afterwards and
could not sleep at night. We
were regular nervous dyspeptics.
We tried many remedies without
permanent benefit until we heard
of Tanlac. | got this medicine
and began using it. We noticed
immediate results. We are both
greatly improved by Tanlac. We
give all credit for the change of
health to Tanlac. 1t is a remark
able medicine.
Il personally feel so good that
l told my hands a day or two
ago that l could beat any Of
them shocking corn. | meant it
and believe l could have beat 'em
all.
Of all the maladies that afflict
humanity chronic dyspepsia, such
as Mr. and Mrs White suffered
from, is probably the most pre-
valent and hours might be con-
sumed in describing the suffer
ings, mental and bodily, of the
victims of chronic dyspepsia.
A morbid, unreal, whimsical
and melancholy condition of the
mind, aside from the nervous
physical suffering, is the usual
state of the average dyspeptic
and life seems scarcely worth
the living.
Tanlac, the celebrated medi-
cine, was designed especially for
overcoming this distressing con-
dition and millions of people
have taken it with the most as
tonishing and gratifying results
1t seems to go straight to the
spot, toning up and invigorating
every organ of the body.
Tanlac is sold in Bradford by

United States Marshal Arthur P
Carpenter arrested Frank o Carpen-
ter of BrattleborO, a we'll known
farmer, July 20 on a warrent charg-
ing him with violating the federal
prohibition law by selling intoxicat-
ing cider April II, the claim of the
government being that he sold the
cider to Archie Mellen Of Guilford,
who is a one-legged man more than
80 years old. The respondent was
taken before United States Commits
sioner c Menzies Miller, who fixed
bail at $500 and ordered respondent
to appear at the October term of the
United States District Court at Rut-
land.
The body of igadier- General Ben
jamin Gearney Roberts, U. S. A,
retired, who died Saturday, July Is
while visiting in Ossining, n. Y, was
taken to Manchester and buried
there in the Dellwood cemetery on
Monday, July Is. General Roberts was
"a years old and the son of General
Benjamin Roberts, a veteran of the
Civil War. His father and grand
father were in the American army
the latter fighting under General
Ethan Allen i'm the Revolutionary
War. General Roberts served during
the last years of the Civil War and
was in charge of the Sandy Hook
Notifications during the Spanish
American War. He was born in
Memphis, Tenn; but secured the
greater part of his higher education
in Vermont, being at one time a
student at the Vermont Episcopal
Institute in Burlington. He finished
his education atPNorwich University.
At the time of his retirement he
was ranking artillery officer in the
regular army. Roberts Post, e.. A. X.

George Roberts, an uncle Of the
deceased.
Because a merchant, a boy and a

$4,000 had been distributed among
the depositors, the bank did not take
of the so days provisions
given under the bank laws of YER

on the institution. The news Of the
run came out Of a clear sky and was
as much of a surprise to the bank
officials as it was to the public in
general. A well-known bank official

the buildings. The cattle sheds
located at the entrance to the
grounds have been torn down, max
ing large area for other exhibits.
1t is planned to have the biggest
automobile show this season and this
display will be made on the ground
formerly occupied by the cattle
sheds.
1t will interest the breeders of
dairy stocm to know that the new
housing conditions will be almost
ideal. The former oxen shed has
been converted into barn that will
accommodate 100 head of stock, and
the old horse barns have also been
remodelled to take care of nearly
200 head. These improvements will
move the cattle to another part of
the grounds, a much desired change.
As now arranged there will be four
good dairy stock barns-as good as
any in the state-and this will be
welcome news to exhibitors.
A twelce foot addition running the
length of the poultry building has
been built on the west side. This
will be good news for poultry ex-
hibitors.
The new buildings have been paint
ed green with white trimmings.
A new automobile road is being
constructed about midway Of the hill
rising from the Junction. This road
will permit autos to reach the
grounds without driving to the en-
trance and will relieve the conges-
ton that has happened on the rush
days of the fair in former years.

Meat Market Cheap Cuts.

TIE current period of excessively
warm weather has affected meat
prices. Net il years have forequar-
ters of beef been selling as cheaply
as at present, according to !. state
ment issued by the Institute of Amer
lean Meat Packers. The statement
says:
Whole forequarters of excellent
quality beef now are selling at whole
sale at Chicago for to cents a
pound, and in some cases even less.
Even at such relatively low prices,
the demand for forcquarters and
forequarter cuts is relatively limited.
This situation is not local but coun-
trywide. Navel ends, which can be
used for a variety of dishes-pot
roast and soup, for instance are SELL
ing at whoiecalc for from 2 to cents
pound and chucks from to 8 cents
pound. The chuck, which is a
shoulder cut, has high value as a SOL
id meat and is suitable for pot roasts,
stews, casserole dishes, and spiced
beef. 1t is economical meat, not only
because of it's very low price but be-
cause it consists of about two-tbirds
lean meat, one-fifth fat, and only
from one-quarter to one-eighth bone.
1t has an excellent flavor and may be
cooked in variety of ways
I'm commenting on the wide diff
ference between fore and hindquar-
ters and the limited demand for fore
quarter meats, the manager of one

Undoubtedly the warm weather
has affected the demand for forequar-

more time for cooking. A good part
OF the consuming public seems I'M
willing to eat anything except center
cuts of ham, steaks, chops and rib

been produced that vas all loins.
Fcrequarters must be produced along
with headquarters. AS matter of
fact, meat from the forequarter is
every bit as tasty, and, in the major
ity of cases, Just as nutritious as loin
or rib cuts. And why shouldn't it be?
Both the foroquarter and tie hind

and are nourisEed from the same
