E dito it Advehtisku:
I hardly think it needful to apol
ogize for sending you this brief let
ter regarding fruits, since it is ac
companied with mellow pears,
peaches and apples; some of which,
I hope, may reach your palate.
Now interest has been awakened
hero with us by tho exhibits at our
Agricultural Fair just held in
Ornngo County.
We were ourselves surprised at
the showing of so many kinds of
fino varieties of apples, peaches,
plums, pears, grapes, etc.
Nothing I can say through your
sheet would avail to induce owners
of plots and farms to plant trees
and vines so much as to seo some
of the samples sent from this re
gion where only a few years ago it
was as harren of Iruit as is yours
at present.
Tho amount of the healthful
food given to the homo and to tho
market is surprising. Attention
to the trees and vines after being
once planted Is required once or
twice each year. This is absolutely
necessary to tho giving of fine
crops.
To mention something regarding
some of the food products shown in
our fair will interest readers, per
haps, and givo them an idea of
what, by fairly good culture, cati
be produced up here in our colder
climate.
The variety of vegetable products
shown was much larger than I hud
conceived as possiblo anywhere
except in the tropical regions. A
prize was offered for tho greatest
variety from one farm. From a
comparatively small one there was
spread out on a long table one
hundred different sorts. Anothor
showed eighty. Among the
growths were squashes weighing
110 lbs, cabbage heads 2-llbs, enor
mous potatoes of quality very line,
turnips, beets, egg-plant8, and spec
imens of all the cereals with fruit
from tree, shrub and vine.
The thought that anyone should
lack food in a country where so
plentifully and cheaply it can be
provided, seems absurd.
More and more interest appears
to be taken by the people, particu
larly by tho farmers, each year in
these agricultural exhibits. There
were 27,000 people in attendance
hist week and $4,000 dollars paid
in prizes.
Remember too this was only a
county fair. How grc.tly they
help to educate the people on prac
tical lines of industrial work in art
and general farming is plainly
shown in the growing interest and
improvements shown, each year.
These statements and sugges
tions to the people of your parts
might appear impertinent and un
gracious were I not certain that
you can do its well und in tho pro
duction of most of tho kinds of
fruit even better.
While we have a line showing of
stock, both of horses and cattle,
and the finest trotting horses of the
world originated in this (Orange)
county, racing at the fairs has been
discontinued. They are attended
by men, women and children, and
there it as good order on the
grounds generally as at most pub
lic gatherings,?even better, for
our rural population up here repre
sent our most moral and sober citi
zens. P. W.
Poisoned by scrofula is tho sad
story of many lives made misera
ble through no fault of their own.
Scrofula is more especially than
any other a hereditary disease, and
for this simple reason: Arising
from impure and insufficient blood,
the disease locates itself in the lym
phatic.:, which are composed of
white tissues; there Is a period of
foetal life when tho whole body
consists of white tissues, and thore
fote the unborn child is especially
susceptible to this dreadful disease.
But there is a remedy for scrofula
whether hereditary or acquired.
It is Hood's Sarsaparille, which by
its powerful effect on the blood, ex
pels nil trace of the disease and
gives to the vital fluid the quality
and color of health. If you decide
to take Hood's Sarsaparilla do not
accept any substitute.
When you need a good safo lax
ative, ask your druggist for a box
of Ayer's Pills, and you will find
that they give perfect satisfaction.
For indigestion, torpid liver, and
sick headache, there is nothing su
perior. Heading physicians recom
mend (hem.
In advanced age the declining
powers are wonderfully refreshed
by Hood's Sarsaparilla. It really
doos "make the weak strong."
For some time past I've been a
rheumatic. I recently tried Salva
tion Oil which gave me almost in
stant relief. 1 sincerely recom?
mend it as it has entirely cured
me. Jambs Gordon, Balto, Md.
The best reform in domestic life
is without doubt tho introduction
of Dr. Hull's Baby Syrup. Now no
more laudanum need be given to
babies.
Hall's Hair H?nower is free
from alcohol and all dyes that in
jure tho skin. It is scientifically
prepared, and will restoro gray
hair to its original color and vigor.
Professor Oautbier, of Paris,
slates that certain vital processes
of the body develop putrefying sub
tnnces in the tissues, which, If not
speedily eliminated, produce dis
ease. Ayer's Sarsaparilla effects
the removal of those substances,
and t her by preserves health.
Croup frequently finds a house
hold unprepared for his visit, while
the rapidity with which it develops
calls for instant treatment. For
this dangerous disease Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral is an admirable
remedy. It saves many lives every
year. Keep it in the house.
A doctor's bill is seldom less than
live dollars, and this doesn't in
clude the cost Of filling prescrip
tions. Ono dollar purchases a hot
tlo of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which,
in nine cases out of ten, is all the
medical treatment needed. Try it
and save your money for a rainy
day.
Improve tho nutritive functions
of the sculp by using Hall's Vege
table Slcllllail Hair H?nower, and
thus keep the hair from falling and
becoming gray.

that have accumulated during
tho thirty-eight (38) years of
constant use of the waters of your

tho Lithia Spring are odorless and

rather palatable. When taken in

from* nn|analysis of the waters they

They react upon the blood, chang.

In indigestion, catarrh of stom

with a proper diet they are a cer

MR. J. T. HARRIS,
Dear Sirs?T havo
been a sufferer for some time from
an affection of tin. kidneys. I tried
a number of remedies without any
relief. Some times the pain in my
back was so severe that 1 bad 'o
have help to get up when silting
down. Some of my friends asked
me to try your mineral water, 1
did so, and the result was most
gratifying. I felt relief after tho
first day. After using it a week I
was entirely well. It has been some
six weeks since 1 first used it, and
my general health is greatly im
proved. Too much cannot be said
in its praise. It is undoubtedly tho
best water that I know of,
Yours Respect fully.
