aHEN ASHCRAFT'S Condi
tion Powders are fed to horses
an mules, marked improvement
will be seen after the first few
doses. There is no doubt about it.
The Powders, acting direction the
digestive organs, first thoroughly
cleanses the stomachand bowels,
correcting all disorders, and then
good healthy appetite comes nat
urally and surely. It is the most
powerful tonic and appetizer on
the market to-day, and when once
used horsemen will have no other,
j Ashcraft's Powders produce that
silky sheen of coat and hair so
I admired by horse fanciers. The
Powders fatten but never bloat
Always high grade and put up
in doses never m bulk.
T3y the use of three or four doses
a week your horse or mule will
not be subject to colic or any dis
ease of the stomach and bowels
"I had an old horse that was in very bad
condition generally. He was thin and had a
blood disease that was causing the hair to
come off. 1 gave the horse three doses of Ash
craft's Condition Powders a day for seven days
and fed him liberally. The appetite improved
from the first few doses and the animal gained
nfty-two pounds in flesh during the week 1
rave it three doses a day. The general health
of the animal was greatly Improved by the use
of the powders and he was made almost a new
horse. I most heartily recommend Ashcraft's
Condition Powders, as 1 Know mey are a splen
did tonic and appetizer. c. C. 81 K

THE BOLL. WEEVIL. IN TEXAS
Fort Worth, Tex., Mall.
Shortly after his visit to Texas last
fall Secretary Wilson, of the depart
meat of argriculture, expressed the
opimou that au the money in tbe
federal treasury could not eradicate the
boll weevil. The south woald never
get rid of the pest, he intimated, unless
cotton growing was abandoned or the
insect went as it came of
as it came oi its own
accord.
And now comet Expert W. D. Hun
ter of the department's entomological
bureau, with a report which is a pessi
mtstic as was Mr. Wilson's statement,
Mr. Hun terras been studying the boll
weevil for several years now and his
conclusion is that there is not even
remote possibility that the peet can be
exterminated
So it's up to the Texas farmers and
in lesser degree, to those of the entire
south.
Tbe weevil has so far invaded only
small portion of Louisiana, but, all the
facts being considered, there can be no
doubt that it will in time spread over
that state as it epread over Texas and
that eventually it will cross the Missis
sippi as it crossed the Rio Grande, and
.... .
attack all of the cotton growing slates
in turn. As it does this, it may aban
don the territory in the rear, where it
first appeared. But that is a tnntter of
mere conjecture. The only things that
are absolutely certain are that the pest
is steadily pursuing its grim march
across the cotton belt, and is carrying
with it a degree of destruction to prop'
erty compared with which the damage
done by the human invaders who
marched "from Atlanta to the sea
was insignificant.
The situation is grave assuredly, and
yet there is no reason for tbe farmers
of Texas or any other state in tbe belt
becoming unduly depressed in conse
quence. There are other crops besides
cotton. That staple is still king, despite
the boll weevil, and with prices at the
present level is much of the whole
royal family, as well. But tbe condi
tions which prevail now are abnormal
and the chances are more or less against
their continuing in evidence. Unless
all signs re at fault, cotton will never
again go to the 5 cent mark, or perhaps
Kven to the 8 or 9 cent mark. But
there is equal reason to believe that it
will not remain a,t the 18 cent plane,
unless the crops of tbe next few years,
by reason of the ravages of the boll
weevil, or for some other reason
should be unprecedentedly short. The
crop is enormously profitable even at
prices much lower tha-i those which
prevail now, but the degree of risk
which now attends cotton planting in
this section being considered, there are
other crops just as profitable and just
as easily converted into cash. It is
only necessary to break away from
some of the old ideas of past decades
to realize this. In tbe coast country of
Louisiana and Texas there are still
from 8,000,000 to 10,000,000 acres of
land available for the culture of rice,
a crop for which the boll weevil does
not care and which yields profits second
not even to those which come from 18
cent cotton. Farther north in Texas,
there are more millions of acres on
which wheat and corn and other grains
may be raised to advantage. In addi
tion there are the sections where fruits
and vegetables equal to any in tbe
world may be grown. Practically the
whole of the agricultural portion of the
sUte will produce alfalfa, a money-
making crop of great value. Tbe pos
sibilities of profit from the raising of
standard bred swine and other live stock
are almost dazzling.
So, even though the gloomy opinions
of Secretary Wilson and bis experts are
fully borne out, there is no reason wby
the southern farmer in general or the
Texas farmer in particular should be
nnduly cast down. Cotton baa been
the best of money-getting crops, and
is so far aa the whole south is con
cerned. But there are other aaops
I which may be grown with profit and
L the event the planters aw forced to
turn to them they will baye thje si tisf ac
tion of knowing th it they are still hold
ing up their end, as it were while at the
same time depriving the pernicious
weevil of bis only means of susleuanco.
In the meantime, a vigorous crusade
against the weevil is in progress and
means of exterminating it may yet be
found despite the gloomy view of the
experts.
What la Lllef
In the last analysis nobody knows,
bat we do know that it is under strict
law. Abuse that law even slighty, pain
results. Im-gular living means derange
ment of tbe organs, resulting in corjsti
pataon, headache or liver trouble. Dr
King's New Life Pills quickly re-adjnsts
this. It's gentle, yet thorough. Only
26 cents at all drag stores.

Striking,' sensational, thrilling in its
live and absorbing interest is the start
ling revelation made In the March Mc-
Clure's by Samuel Hopkins Adams in
a plain and forceful statement of the
facts in the "Cae of the State of Ken
tucky versus Caleb Powers." In spite
of a national interest in the great pol
ltical tragedy which so recently rent
Kentucky in twain the surprising thing
is that there has nowhere appeared any
thing like a complete and accurate
statement of its dramatic details. It is
stated on the editorial authority of Mc
Clure's, and fully substantiated, that at
the time of the trials of Caleb Powers
far the murder of William Goebel, who
died Governor of Kentucky four years
ago, from the r.fle shot of an unknown
assassin, tbe newspaper reports which
were sent out both by omission and
bias presented an entirely distorted view
of the case. The impression of the de
fendant's guilt thus created was so
widespread that, outside of Kentucky,
the conviction of Powers was universal
ly accepted as righteous. Mr. Adams'
article purposes tJ deal with tbe actual
facts in the case, without respect to
political opinion. Nothing short of a
revelation is the result.
Simply, directly and vigorously Mr.
Adaftis ttlla tbe dramatic story of the
political feud which culminated in the
death of Goebel. He describes the pol
itical situation in Kentucky which pre
cipitated the tragedy, as much aa is
definitely known of tbe tragedy itself,
events connected with it, tbe arrest and
trial of Secretary of State Caleb Powers;
Jim Howard, the mountain feudist,
and Henry Youtsey the proven fakir
and manifest degenerate. The three
trials of Powers are described as mere
travesties of justice. Tbe Republican
leader was each time condemned in
advance by solidly Democratic juries
picked for that purpose, before pre
judiced judges on evidence totally in
sufficient. The character sketch Mr. Adams
draws of Powers is most attractive. It
in that of a fine, strong, young moun
taineer of unflinching courage, cool and
unbroken self posession even when
standing in tbe very shadows of the
gallows. Mr. Adams rightly places tne
fespontibility for Powers conviction
and threatened death upon the State of
Kentucky. Under similar circum
stances Powers' fate might have been
precipitated by either political party in
Kentucky. It is not the party, but tbe
system, which is at fault.
This timely article adds materially to
McClure's reputation as an exponent of
national journalism. Tearing the veil
q partisanship from the case it lets in
the light of unbiased truth which
.simple justice and common humanity
is due. In tbe light of the enlightened
public sentiment it does not seem pos
sible that toe State of Kentucky will
care to assume the onus of a legal
lynching, no matter how bitter may be
the political feud which would inspire it
Beautify tbe Country Home.
Progressive Farmer.
A new spirit seems to have taken
hold of our country dwellers, and iu
every section there are evidences, of
determination o improve the splendid
opportunities for bringing new beauty
to field and yard and dweling. Clear up
the overgrown places; plant flowers and
trees about the yard and lane; paint
the buildings; whitewash tbe fences
trim up the trees that have be
gun to look ragged; enlarge the
yard a little; cover all old Wells and
nsightly places with vines; put some
pictures in tbe home. Consciously,
and unconsciously, this will cause every
member of the family to love home
more, to take greater pride in tbe farm,
and to feel a greater interest, art and
morals. The increasing interest in
more beautiful homes is on of the
most gratifying features of rural life in
the South.

GEN. GORDON'S LAST COM HI UN ION
Neosho, Ho., Cor. Kansas City Star. .
Having read several article in fhe
Star referring to tie late Gen. Gcrdon,
especially the service held at the Central
Methodist Church in his memory, I
thought it might interest his admirers
to have a description of what must have
been his last communion. He came to
Neosho on October 3 and delivered his
lecture "The Last Days of the Con
fedjracy." While here he was enter
tained by one of our prominent citizens,
Mr. Thorn, who was present at the sur
render of Gen. Lee.
The next dsy being Sunday, the day
f6r our regular 'communion service in
the Presbyterian church, the general
accompanied Mr. Thorn's family to
church. Mr. Thorn, being an elder,
made it known that the general was
also an elder in his Presbyterian church,
and was invited to take a seat with the
session and assist in the distribution, of
the emblems. The congregation was
struck with, the modest, simple manner
in which he conducted himself. While
passing the bread and wine the great
general was forgotten and we law only
the Christian gentleman. It was my
privilege, as one of the elders, to serve
him with the bread and wine and sit
by his side till the benediction was pro
nounced by the Rev. Mr. Ely. I then
offered my band, saying, "Brother
Gordon, it gives me great pleasure to
know you." He gave me a warm
grasp of the hand and said, "Thank
you. This has been a precious occa
sion to me." I then said it was a
great privilege to meet and know one of
the men who was present and took such
a prominent part in tbe surrender of
General Lee. General Gordon replied,
"At the time I determined to make it
my life work to bring about a recon
ciliation between the people of the
North and the South, and I am glad to
know there is such harmony and good
feeling as there is to day,"
During my seventy years of life it
has been my privilege to meet many of
our great men, but no one ever im
pressed me so much as General John
B, Gordon. It was a strange coin
cidence that his death was announced
from tbe pulpit the morning of our
next regular communion day.

RUSSIA WILL CHUMI JAPAN.
St. Petersburg, Feb. 26. Jfnau
thority i, touch with sbe Russian war
plans whose opinion rttleats the belief
in the highest quarters, said to the As
sociated Press to-day: "The war will
end in August or September, in com
plete defeat of the Japanese. How the
Japanese can hope to succeed when
our army in the far .East is strengthen
ed to a point equal Jr superior to theirs,
we are honestly unabla to comprehend.
It wall not be difficult to place. 200,000
to 000,000 additional men in the field
if neSessary.. When our forces are con
centrated and ready, we will finish by
driving the Japanese into the sea.
Frankly, it seems that the Japanese ut
terly have failed to anticipate Russia's
resources, or have counted on the aid
of Great Britain or the United -States,
neither of which ever contemplated b.
ing involved. We think the Brianh
statesmen who did s much to push
Japan into the war, realized that it
would accomplish two things for Great
Britain, first to give Russia check, for
the war must impede our progres tem
porarily; second, to cripple the Japan
ese maritime power, which is begin
ning to be felt greatly in the Pacific."
It can be said with the utmost posi
tiveness that Russia will "bide her time.
She will wait until her weight of num
bers will leave no doubt as to the result.
Reinforcements are going forward 'at
the rate of 3,000 per day. Probably
some lime will elapse before Russia

applies not only to the employes in

the President had pursued a course in
the Panama matter that would have
