MILLINERY GOODS

Ribbons, Lace, and everything else in my store.]
This sacrifice sale is being made in order to make room
RSr my new stock of goods. Now if you want a bargain come
at once. This sale will only last for a short while. Courteous
treatment to all. Yours Truly.
“By this time the tollkeepers saw
something was up, for the pedestrians
on the bridge began to run, drivers
YfriUpped up their horses and men and
women with blanched faces declined to
set foot on either end of the structure.
A messenger {there were no tele
phones then) was dispatched for the
superintendent, and’he came running.
The old fiddler was ‘pointed out, and a
constable was ordered to arrest him:
but, there being no suspicious person
law then In existence, the officer shook
his bead. The bridge was cutting up
all sorts of capers, swaying back and
forth like a swing, until at last the su
perintendent in desperation ran to the
fiddler and promised never to demand
toll from him. An agreement was en
tered into, the fiddler pledging to keep
secret to his dying day the keynote, so
that no revengeful musician ever again
could place the structure in Jeopardy
without studying out the keynote him

PUMPKINS IN QUANTITY.
The Xe*» laduatry of ftrowSn* Them
Cnnainic FnctaiWea.
lu northeaster* Ohio lanr** quantities
of punipkina are raised for canning
purposas. Tuls Is especially true in the
vicinity of Csnneaut, where Is locat
ed one of the largest canneries for
ponxpklns on the Ametlcan continent.
More than 2AX) tons of this product are
ftftnn used at a cannery in one season,
stud this quantity is equivalent to about
1.&& wagon loads, says a writer in
'Ohio Farmer.
-A field that will yield twenty tons of
pumpkins to the acr» Is considered ex
cellent. T^ie pumpkin field shown In
Tthe cut was an unusually productive
•one. Pumpkins only were raised in
stead of <00111 and pumpkins together.
PART or A PROLIFIC PATCH.
Most farmers raise pumpkins In the
midst of their corn and cannot, of
course, expect so large a pumpkin crop.
The size of the annual crop also de
pends a great deal upon the weather at
the time when the vines are in blossom
The yield may therefore vary from
year to year, and on this naturally de
pends the price which Is paid per ton,
it ranging in different years from $2.50
to $5. And when the crop In the vicini
ty of a canning factory Is small it is
necessary to ship pumpkins in from
other parts of the country in carloads.
Pumpkins are being grown In much
greater quantities today than they were
a few years ago. States like West Vir
ginia and Arkansas, where the agrlcul
turlst has given little attention to them
in the past, are finding that under cor
tain conditions they are a profitable
crop. Michigan, where so much atten
tion la being given to firults, sugar
beets and other products In recent
years, is giving increased attention to
this crop too. A ton of pumpkins will
make about 1,200 pounds when canned

To hold the timber in place when
sawing secure a hickory pole about
tu-o inches in diameter and six feet
long. Fasten one end to the ground
at one side of the horse by means of a
stake or a bout wooden staple, as Il
lustrated. Bend the pole over the tim
ber to be held and fasten with a forked
stake set in tbo ground. A small post
with holes bored In one side a few
inctu* apart and a pin to fasten in
thelioles will be fouud preferable to a
'‘forked stick, as the pole can thus be
sprung down and held at different
points to suit the various kinds of

“Cotton Cnltnres** CondeNtned.
When the warning against nltrocul-

based upon the worthlessness of the
cotton cultures. We supposed the bits
of cotton contained living bacteria, and
the thought was only that thousands
were paying $2 a package for bacteria
When they either had the bacteria In
their soils or else had soils in which
these bacteria would not live.' The ad
