DR. HOUSEAL'S HELENA i REHABILITATION FARM All professional men after years of toil in their professions and the carcs incident to the strenuous life of most professions have a tendency as they grow older to have hobbies, and naturally most of them turn to the farm, "* and it is well, because the farm gives a certain recreation and pleasure that can be gained from no other source. (* i Dr. Gu> Werber, after years of ser| vice in the government in Washing-1 | ion and the hard life of the city, as r he grew older felt a desire to hark p back to the farm, so he came down to!' ] Newberry and amused himself with his conservation ranch and dreamed of things that would help the human race, if he could only make the race; see the advantages as he did. Dr. Houseal coming from the sturdy stock t.h*> other days, ? urnl micu iiiv .--v.. ... very naturally desired to amuse him- j self and help his fellows by exper-! imeriting with a farm. Not that we i -desire that it shall be understood that we mean that either one of i these eminent men in their profession , is growing: old. Not at all, because both of them are still in the prime of sturdy young manhood, and are still plying their trades and serving humanity as healers of the sick in a most efficient manner. ! The editor of this paper has had' ^.i- ^ J -Fm- momr vonr.< to hark ucs.iic iui iuumj v? back to the hills, but unfortunately. the profession of editing and pub-1 Jishing a country newspaper, while it i? A great service, yet it does nott bring1 the returns that other profes-' % sioiis do for the labor and mental,1 work necessary to prcaiue a credit-, able product, and, therefore, he must j still serve and labor, but then he has the satisfaction that possibly he too j. has been able to render, some helpful j service to his day and generation, j ; But the oint of this psrory is to tell, you of the Helena Rehabilitation I .Farm of Dr. W. G. Houseal, and the. success he is making of it, and he is, not only getting the recreation which; conVes from the farm and the amuse- j' luent it affords him, but it is a profit-; able enterprise, and he is doing that] which more farmers in this country > should do, and it would pay many of; them to take a trip to this farm and see what he has done to rehabilitate the land, that is to build it up, and at the same time make the process ( of building profitable to him and;. those who work with him. And the j process is simple enough and could1, be followed by others with profit, j Some years ago he bought a small; farm of some 60 acres near the town 1 < Helena, and by rotating crops and j j * 1 ?- nn J nlnTOirtor : ' crimson ciuvcx auu pivniu^ | It under he has built up the poor land j \o the point where now produces) two bales of cotton to the acre where j , before it took two acres to make a j, bale and sometimes more than two. j 1 On this farm he plants the cotton-, right in the clover field and before j the clover in the middle of the rowsj r * is turned under and up against the,.' cotton, and rich crimson, luxuriant in! < growth, is beautiful to look upon, and j when other lands are suffering for,] rain the clover keeps his lands moist!* and the cotton grows right on. And he has the practical demonstration!, -nlavor* OC a ljJTlfl VI bllt; VtHUC UI V1UO V1VT VI uv> u .V...V. builder right on the farm. The;( same class of land in the same field; that has the clover maWes just twice" the cotton per acre as the land that' has not had the clover growth. j, And another thing he has refused:' more than twice what the land cost, j ( and only the other day he bought j some three or four acres thr.-: rejoined him to get another outlet to |, the road for something around $500 j - the acre. It is just ordinary land t < but by the planting of crimson clover \ ' v' ) and .the right sort of cultivation it j ; " lias become very productive. GoJ out some dav and take a look at it. j: After the above was written and J in type the editor received a letter , from Dr. Gus Werber who is now in;Washington from which we take the j following paragraph which confirms j what we have said above that his' i mind is now turned toward the farm: i: "The world is certainly rushdng'1 forward at a wonderful pace; and Ij a meven told you are to have a successful cotton picker, the Dana pneu-1 matic picker, on demonstration at' m?i_ 4.V ? ! your cwite xair. x ruiy wic cigimi wonder of the world which we have all waited to see/' \ It would be a great thing for the cotton growers if ths eighth wonder could be a reality because with the 'gicareity of labor on the farm something must happen to make it profitable to grow cotton even at the present prices. And the gathering of the crop is one of the big problems connected. with its production. Rheumatism "is completely washed out of the system {>3 the celebrated Shivar Mineral Water.
