old friend that soon drives out the point
and aches.
Sloan’s Liniment is so easy to apply, na
rubbing at all, it sinkB right in and fixes
the pain. Cleaner than niussy plasters and
ointments. Try it for gout, lumbago, neu

France delights in naming i:s streets
after some particular building, nr some
happening, or a great vielory, ami this
is also true to a certain extent in
Canada, where there is only uni capi
tal City which commemorates an indi
vidual. This is Charlottetown, the
capital of Prince Edward Island. The
Charlotte so remembered was the
daughter and only child of (Jeorge IV,
who died only a year after her mar

Overheated Air.
A rise of temperature in the sur
rounding air diminishes the amount of
oxygen consumed and the amount ot
dioxide discharged. A fall of tem
perature has the opposite effect. In
addition, the overheated air forms a
hot jacket around the body, which pre
vents the radiation of heat neees-ary
to keep the body in a healthy condi
tion. With a sedentary occupation a
temperature of from 65 to 70 should be
maintained for comfort and health.

SUPERSTITION OF GEN. GRANT
Union Commander Believed It Bad
Luck to Turn and Retrace
His Steps*
The country folk in the vicinity of
Grant's boyhood home were as super
stitious as was the general run of
rural people in that day. One thing
grew out of these notions that fixed
itself permanently in tile mind, of the
youthful Grant that had, no doubt,
marked effect on his later life.
He says that- ho came firmly to be
lieve that it meant had luck for one to
turn round and retrace ids steps when
on n journey. One might, with impu
nity return home without reaching his
intended destination, hut he must do
it by another road—not the same one
he traveled in going.
This feeling may have hud some
thing to do with his entrance tit West
Point. It is commonly known that his
appointment was not of ids choosing,
but that of his father, (’.rant himself
hung hack and hail to he pressed to
go to tlic academy. Even after he was
well on Ids way—nt Philadelphia and
New York—he sincerely hoped that
some accident might happen that
would make ids return imperative. But
he would not turn round and retrace
ids steps.
The feeling seems to have grown
gradually into set rule with him that
after having set out to go anywhere,
or to do anything, he must go to the
end of the thing, and there must be
no such tiling as turning back. That
was characteristic of his course in the
Civil war when he rose to positions in
which he had supreme decisions to
The only time in his life when he
seemed near to breaking in on this rule
was when, after the Mexican war, he
decided to resign from the army and
change tin* whole course of his life up
to that time. But for the Civil war
that called him hack, it is likely tlurt
he would hardly have been heard from
again.
SHUTTING UP THE STORE
Visitors to South America Surprised
to Find the Shops Closed at
Night.
It is rather surprising to the for
eigner visiting South American coun
tries for the first time to find most
of the best and prettiest shops almost
hermetically sealed at night. If the
building is of the older style of con
struction the heavy shutters are closed
and locked by iron bars; if a more
modern building, the flexible sliding
doors and windows are completely
drawn, and the passer-by cun see
nothing within tire shop.
All is darkness save tlie light of the
street lamps; no brilliantly-lighted
windows help to add cheer and bright
ness to the street.
In European and American cities
the average merchant is willing to
spend money freely for nightly dis
play of ids wares and merchandise,
lie realizes and appreciates the pub
licity. Tlie evening crowds upon our
streets are highly entertained and
even instructed by window displays
of tln> busy streets.
Herein lies the difference; for, as
a rule, the South American streets,
busy and attractive during the day,
are quite the reverse at night. Even
in some of the larger cities the old
custom *f hermetically sealing the
shop at night prevails.
Cured of Borrowing.
“Well, I’ve found a way to stop my
neighbors from borrowing,” said a
young suburban matron gleefully.
“You see,” she explained, “we are not
near any store, and. of course, some
nines one nus to oepena on a netgnnor
in an emergency. Hut my particular
neighbor seemed to have such emerg
encies nearly every day. And it was
n- ually vinegar that she wanted. Now
we are particular about our vinegar,
and get the best variety, and of course
'.'hi'ii Mrs. Neighbor asked for vinegar
we gave her our best. But when she
returned it she sent a very cheap
grade, which we were unable to use,
and were obliged to throw out.
“This was repeated so often that we
began to weary of it. and suddenly a
11 right idea struck me. I carefully
red her cheap vinegar into a bottle
I saved it. Next time site asked me
i h i, | her vinegar I sent her own to

RIGHT CARE OF BROOD MARE
Careful Plowman Can Use Her Up to
Within Few Days of Time She
Is to Drop Her Colt.
A careful plowman can use the mure
up till within a few days of the time
she is to drop her colt without dan
ger, and likewise he can begin work
with the mare ten days or two weeks
after the colt is born, provided the
work is reasonably light and the mare
is eared for properly.
It is not necessary that the colt fol

but it is better to leave the colt in the

Mendoza Is Old City.
Mendoza is the metropolis of west
ern Argentina. It is a city of some
size carefully planned and able to
stand comparison with any town in the
new world or the old one the point of
municipal beauty. It looks distinctly
new, but as a matter of fact it is one
of the oldest towns in the western hem
isphere. It was founded fifty years be
fore the well-known settlement of
Jamestown in Virginia, while the fa
thers and mothers of the Pilgrims were
still living peacefully in England.
Not Always Happy.
It is customary but I think it is a
mistake, to speak of “happy” child
hood. Children are often overanxious
and acutely sensitive. Man ought to
be man and master of his fate; but
children are at the mercy of those
around them. Mr. Rarey, the great
horse-tamer, has told us that he has
known an angry word to raise the
pulse of a horse ten beats in a minute.
Think then how it must affect a child!

KEEP UNO BUSY;
STATE NEEDS FIOD
As Soon as One Crop Is Off the LarvJ
Plant Something Else—Keep ths
Land, Men and Teams Busy.
By L*. W. Osborn, College of Agricul
ture, University of Arkansas.
Help feed the Arkansas troops and
their horses. Put something on stub
ble land as soon as possible, and do
everything to help produce a surplus.
Make your land work as far as possi
ble all the time. As soon as the oat
and wheat crops are off the land, plant
something and keep the teams and la
borers busy. Remember, you are
working for Arkansas now.
The crops which can still be plant
ed at this season of the year are the
old stand-bys—the cow peas, peanuts,
sorghum and sw'eet potatoes. Aside
from these can be mentioned the soy
bean and late corn. The velvet bean
can still be planted for forage or soil
improvement. The yields of forage
from these late planted crops are good
even though lighter than can usually
be expected from the earlier plant
ings. A combination of sorghum and
cow peas, seeded with a grain drill,
will probably produce as large a yield
of forage as anything. Com planted
in rows five or six feet apart with
cowpeas, soy beans, or peanuts, drill
ed through the middle! is a good prac
tice where grain is desired and the
forage can be pastured. Planting
cowpeas or soy beans in the row' with
: corn makes an excellent combination
; for the silo, especially on good soils.
KEEP EARLY ARKANSAS IRISH
POTATO CROP AT HOME.
How To S».ve Spring Crop and Pro
duce Fall Crop.
By H. F. Kapp, District Agent, Exten
sion Division, IT. of A.
"Some means should be taken to
keep the early Irish potato crop in
Arkansas this year. Our farmers are
! making a great mistake in permitting
them to leave the state. There is a
serious shortage in the world’s supply
and the practice we have of shipping
out the early crop in June and by the
niidale of July or August 1 receiving
return shipments to supply our needs
may prove disastrous this year be
cause it will not only be practically
impossible to get Irish potatoes back
into the state, but the price will be
prohibitive.
How To Save Them.
"The spring crop of Irish potatoes
can be saved for home use by spread
ing them out on a floor in a well ven
tilated building, or on the ground un
der a building. The latter plan is pre
ferable if suitable place is at hand.
The potatoes should be spread out
very thin. It is best if they do not
touch each other. After a few days
they should bo gone over carefully and
any that have begun to decay should
he picked out. If the potatoes are
very wet at digging time, scatter air
slaked lime over them to absorb the
moisture. In this way a home supply
can he kept until December or Jan
nary. after which they will become so
shriveled and watery that they are
not fit for food, and are not good for
soea.
Plant a Fall Crop.
“Most farmers do not attempt to
grow a fall crop of Irish potatoes for
the reason that it is so difficult to
get a stand that is worth while. Some
Arkansas farmers, again, have prov
en that it is possible to get a very
good stand for a fall crop. Their meth
od is as follows:
‘ Select a plat of good ground for
the fall crop and plow it immediately.
Then plow and repiow it as the sea
son advances. Get a deep, thoroughly
pulverized seed bed. Do not let any
weeds grow on the plat. Only mature
potatoes should be used for seed, ('till
out the smaller potatoes from t!i»"
spring crop and care for them as indi
cated. About the middle of July plant
them in the seed bed prepared accord
ing to the directions just mentioned.
It will be found that enough moisture
lias been conserved by thorough pre
paration, plowing ami harrowing, to
sprout the potatoes and get a fair
start'd. It cannot be expected that as
good a yield will be obtained in the
fall as with a spring crop, but plenty
can be produced to supply the needs
of a family and provide seed for plant
ing next spring.”
Green Seed Potatoes.
‘‘Take the seed potatoes culled
from the spring crop as soon as dug
and bed them out in a dense shade;
under a tree where sunlight trickle
through is a good place. Scatter
enough dirt over them so that about
one-half of the potato is left exposed.
Keep them damp. In two or three
weeks the exposed part of the potato
will turn green. In this condition it
will not rot and is sure to sprout. If
both the land preparation and green
ing methods are carried out a good
crop of fall potau>es may be expect
ed unless the fall is extremely dry
Of course, it is to be presumed that
fertilization and good cultivation will
be given the crop.”
“With the present* high price of po
tatoes, the shortage of acreage on ac
count of the cost of seed and the great
demand that will probably incrVa'se
rather than diminish, every farmer
should provide for hts own use and
be certain to have hi* own seed next
spring. A fall crop will solve tho
