Farmers, dout trust too much to others to help you, make an effort each and every man of you to help yourselves, try a few acres on the Aldrich system of growing two rows of cotton alternating with two rows t of corn. Tnere is nothing to lose 'n giving this plan a fair trial We have been watching this system of planting two rows of cotton and two rows of corn siDce this plan first ? ? i-" UnnA .<nma f r\ came mtu nonet*, uuu uaro vuww w tile conclusion that there must be something in it, or about twenty good man we know of, have been doing some good lieiDg about this thing. At least four of our neighbors, as well as ourselves, are to try several acres on this "Aldrich *plan" this season. Some how or other we have got it into our heads that there may be too much cotton on hand next fall, and in case "something drops" we hope to have more food for both man and beast, and not trust to others for our feast. Our plans are as follows: Where * ->l- i -i J_ i t our lands nave axreauy ueeu iei tiu&eu and prepared for cotton, cake a large double Jack plow and throw down the whole cotton bed, with one furrow, in two rows and plant early corn in the bottom of these furrows, covering corn with small double foot plow, then leave next two rows for cotton, continuing the whole field on this plan. This early corn will mature and be out of growth by the time when cotton needs all help possible to put on a good crop of fruit and retain it. At the last plowiog of the corn rows we are to sow inoculated cow-peas in these corn rows ahead of the plows. Bv this plan aa acre package of nifcroculsure will inoculate two acres of land. Of course, we will not be able this season to inoculate all our peas, but we will do so as much as possible. Quite a number of practical farmers report that they have made as much cotton to the acre under the Aldricb plan as they did by planting every row in cotton and have the corn and peas as a profit to the credit of this plan. Now, farmers, hn Knnocf. fn fiVfirvhndv. DUfe ft ffOOd | WW WW? WWV J 7 X c. number of acres on this plan and let us hear from you. Tee, we may say to those who have not cut their acerage and are feeling bad about it that this Aldrich plan will give them a good opportunity to relieve their conscience and at the same time give thom a splendid chance to make a profitable cotton crop at mostrany old price and have more corn, peas and fodder that bring good prices all the while aod never fails to bring good, fat hogs, horses and cows. Since writing the foregoing we have had an interview with several farmers not far from Pendleton that tried this Aldrich system last season, and some of them will plant their whole crop this jear on this plan. S. L. McCarley, J. W. Durham and 0. Brock are among the farmers who have been successful with this system of mixed crops. These farmers explain that the corn roots feed near the surface of the soil snd the cotton roots go down deeper for their main support. Now there is good solid sense and reason in this, and another good reason for the remarkable results is that wide spaces between the double rows give more air space and sunlight, which is of great advantage to the fruiting of both corn and cotton.?J.

WOMEN NOT This Statement Has Beei Modest Women Eva Male Physicians. An eminent physician says that 1 "Women are not truthful: they will lie J to their physician." This statement] should be qualified; women do tell^he truth, but not the whole t#uth, to a male physician, but this is .only in regard to those painful and troublesome disorders peculiar to their sex. There can be no more terrible ordeal to a delicate, sensitive, refined wolnan than to be obliged to answer certain questions when those questions are j asked, even by her family physioian. i This is especially the case with un-1 married women. Is it any wonder, then, that women continue to suffer and that uoctors fail to cure female diseases when they cannot get the proper information to work on ? This is the reason why thousands and thousands of women are now corresponding with Mrs. Pinkham. To her they can and do give every symptom, so that she really knows more about the true condition of her patients, through her correspondence wfth them than the physician who personally questions them. If you suffer from any form of trout^e peculiar to women, write at once to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., and she will advise you free of charge. The fact that this great boon, which is extended freely to women by Mrs. Pinkham, is appreciated, the thousands of letters received by her prove. Many such grateful letters as the following are constantly pouring in. , Ask Mrs, Pinkham's Advice?A Woma Mrs. Adds Valentine, who was convicted at Lodi, N J , a year ago of the murder of Mip* Roea Salzs? on account of Mrs. Valentine's husband?was resentenced on Tuesday acd will be banged the 12rh day cf May, her attempts to get a new trial having failed.

In the year 1770 Captain Cook sailed into'Botany bay in his ship, the Eud<*ivor. A foraging or exploring party brought back to him the news of the discovery of a new and strangely formed animal. It was described as mouse colored in hue and of the size of a T^ut which struck Cook's men as most singular was its movements. - "It sprang or leaped with great swiftness, by the aid of its long hind limbs," while the possession of a strong tail was also noted. On July 14 a Mr. Gore, one of Cook's pnrty, shot a kangaroo, the name by which the animal was known to the natives. At their dinner on Sunday, July 15, 1770, they dined off kangaroo joint and pronounced the meat to be excellent eating. As early as 1711. however, a Dutch traveler in Australia, of the name of De Bruins, had captured a kangaroo, which he took to Batavia alive, so that Cook practically rediscovered the family. I ' An l'nni'ce*Hnry Distinction. The two expressions "by and. by" and "by the bye" are really derived from the sume original word, and the words 1 "by" and "bye" have the same general il.yv boo 1 StfUStf. CUL LUC apvui.115 u\c; IIUJ IVHI, [ been used in the second of these ) phrases without any real reason for j the change. We should not speak of a bye law or a bye path, and yet many are careful to write "by the bye" and j "by the by." In "goodbye" there might be some reason for keeping the final "e." since it stands for the word "ye" in the shortened form of "God be with ye;" but where so much has been droned the "e" is hardly worth keepf ing especially as the old meaning is sel^vm recalled.?St. Nicholas. TRUTHFUL i Unjustly Made, Because de Questions Asked By Mrs.Ella Lee, Frankford, Ind., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham 44 I want to thank you for what your medicine has done for me. 44 Three years ago I had inflammation of the claries and ulcers on my womb. I was under the doctor's care for about three months, and the only time I was not in pain was when under the influence of morphine. The doctor finally said I never would be better, and would be an invalid the rest of my life. I had given up in despair, but one evening I came across one of your advertisements and decided to write you for advice. I did so and commenced to take Lydia E. Ptrffchanrs Vegetable Compound. I began to improve at once, and to-day I am a well woman, and I know t is all due to your advice and medicine. Mrs. J. H. Farmer of 2809 Elliott Avenue, St. Louis, Mo., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:? 441 cannot thank you enough for what your advice and medicines have done for me. They have done me more good than all the doctors I ever had. 44 For the last eight years I have suffered wim lemaie irouDies; was very wean; naa nervous prostration, and could not do ray work; but I am happy to say Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has made a different woman of me. I am in perfect health and have gained ha weight from 98 pounds to 122 pounds.* No other medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. No other medicine has such a record for actual cures of female ills as has Lj-dia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound. Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women to write her for advice.
