Heart Troubles The heart may he weak just the same as the eyes, stomach or other organs. It often happens that a person is horn with a weak heart. Then again dis ease, fevers, over-exertion, anxiety, nervousness, rheumatism, etc. weaken the heart. The result is shortness of breath, pal pitation. pain in the heart, or in some of the nerves of the chest or abdomen. The heart should be strengthened with a tonic, and for this not liing equals Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure.

After trying a number of remedies and several phy sicians, I was just about ready to give up in despair. 1 saw Vinol ad vertised and decided to try it, and it has done more good for me than all other means combined. It has built me up and restored my strength until 1 now feel twenty years younger, and am able to attend to my work again as usual.” Job Jeavons, 1036 Lind street, Wheeling, W. Va, The reason Vinol is so successful in such cases is because it contains tonic iron and. all of the strengthening blood-making and body-building ele ments of cod liver oil, but no oil. Vinol is unexcelled as a strength creator for old people, delicate children, weak, run-down persons, and after sickness—and Is the best known rem edy for coughs, colds and bronchitis. iWe return your money If Vinol tails to give satisfaction. A. G. WANNER. Falls City. Net Some Snap Shots and Observations So far thin winter tlie Nebraska fame has had the most favorable conditions, or at least everything has worked to his benefit to a greater extent than one could rea sonably expect. With good corn husking weather clear through the old year, no one could have any excuse for not getting the com gathered and all the fall work fin ished. The weather has been so mild that the stock has hardly needed to be sbedded and as for dry bed ding, every farm lias been abund antly supplod. The hogs have fattened well under such condi tions and although we grumbled some at feeding (if> cent corn, yet after all it was mostly of our own growing and we are now getting 5i to (i cents for nogs and who dare say those are not good prices? 'I’he cholera Iimh not spread with very great rapidity and 'while we hear of a new outbreak now and then, the eases are scattered and it does not sweep over the country ms in former days. THE lit * A1) gt’ESTION. Wc have had beautiful roads for several months and so far the haul ing has been done under the most favorable circumstances, a team could pull all that the wagon could be loaded with, there was no dust and the wheels rolled along as if on city pavement. (>f course we do not expect such conditions to last forever and even now there is a stir all along the line about this ever present sub ject. 11 is very probable that some legislation will be had this winter. It is a patent fact that the Ne braska farmer does not want mac adamized mads at this time. They are very nice tliyigs to talk about, but having watched tin* sentiment of the common farmers for a few years, we find that they are of the opinion that we must build our roads of the material we have on the ground, that is of dirt. The experts from Washington put in a road at Auburn in Ne maha County and it cost from six to eight thousand dollars per mile to build it. Now that would make it cost, even at the lower figure, something like 811000 for each 100 acres of land and then we are told that it costs on an average of S.’O per mile or $2n a quarter section, to keep up the road after it is once built. Now if we should put that much I work, that is, s»2*> per quarter sec tion, on our roads in grading and dragging with the King drag, we would have very tine roads. While there are some few bottom roads that it might pay to macademize, it is the dirt road the farmers will have to depend upon. Tin: w II KA I' M i l vtiun The whole state of Nebraska, that is with a few limited excep tions, is showing a very pour pros pect for a 1909 wheat crop. Many a field that had been designated as a seed bed, was left unsown be cause the long continued drouth of the autumn forced the farmer to relinquish his hopes because it was too hard to plow or the Hods could not be pulverized sufficiently for seeding. The wheat that was sown the usual time, even if the ground had been plowed early and well har rowed and in pretty good condi tion. came up spasmodically and much that did come up was killed or stunted and we have none of the beautiful green fields of other years. Many farmers are now selling the last years crop and are getting a very good figure for it. Con tracts are being made at 95 cents per bushel. A recent order by the Agricul tural department at Washington, is just now a burning question with the millers and wheat grow ers of our state. It gives the mills six months time in which to cease the bleaching of the flour. Nebraska wheat makes a black or rather a dark Hour if it is not put through the bleaching process in milling. We can not compete with the whiter Hour made from other wtieats so we are told that we will have a depreciated crop on our hands next year. This is a pure food order that hits the whole state, for our foundation of wealth is in agriculture and anything that tends to depreciate our grain val ues hits us hard. NEBRASKA HORSES. Nebraska hns some great im pot ters of the heavy draft stallions and many a first class horse has been stationed throughout the state and tine colts have been the progeny as a result. Even the ranches have used good stallions and if their herd mares had been good specimens to start with, their results would have been splendid, lint the farmers have made one great mistake, we have sold our highest priced mares and have thus disposed of our breeding stock. Horses have been traf ficked away as carelessly as we sold our wheat or corn. The goob brood mare ought to become a fixture on the farm and not a trinket of traf fic. Another great hinderance to the production of the best horses is the fact that for a few years a town or village may boast of a splendid stallion of a certain breed, say a Belgian or a Shire, then he is disposed of and only a Clyde or a Percheron can be reached, thus we have a continual mixing of the types and breeds. There is no at tempt or at least scarcely any, to continue the breeding along breed lines. The men who never think of mixing their cattle, will not make the least attempt to produce high grade horses of any particu lar breed. Now we may be producing very good horses and of good stamina, but we are not doing the best for keeping up with European breed ers. The only way to do this would be for breeders to demand a certain breed and force the keep ers to it. a noth hk nn; mistake. The general farmer is making a mistake along some other lines loo just now There is a strong senti I merit against fruit growing, Many I who have good orchards are now I letting the stock ruin them, do not replace the trees that die and even trees in order to make more space to grow more corn to feed more lu gs. \\ e have gone corn and hog crazy ! m this great state. I recently heard a man wlio had bought a line young orcherd of 2»> acres, planted by one of ihe most careful men in the state, whose selections were of the best, say that he was going to cut it down. I met an apple buyer one day and he was using no moderate language in condemning the farmers of this section. He said, they care noth ing for apples and let thousands of bushels rot, or turn in the hogs. But it is not apples alone we neglect, A nurseryman said his business was very light, no one j seemed to care to plant trees. Ne braska can grow the best pears, grapes, cherries, apples and peach es and every farm ought to have enough of these fruits for home use. If we expect to buy, we will go without half the time, besides there is nothing like picking your own choice fruit. While we busy grain, hay and pork growers may not cart- to grow fruit on a com mercial scale, we ought not neglect I [ o ir own fruit baskets. Then too, we must not stop planting for shelter and wind* breaks, as the old ones die out or crow 1111 and the lower branches fall oil’, new trees should be set. •lust now when the new catalogs are beginning fo come in, we ought to get these things on our minds. The catalog' is a great educator, put them away carefully on a pile and get them out some evening and compare prices and select some new fruits and ornamentals for spring planting. Plant a little every spring and keep up your groves and orchards. A Religious Author's Statement For several yearn I was alllieted with kidney trouble and la.-t winter 1 was suddenly stricken with a severe pain in my kidneys and was confined to bed eight days unable to get up without assistance. My urine contained a thick white sediment and I passed same frequently day and night. I com menced taking Foley’s Kidney Rem edy, and the pain gradually abated and finally ceased and my urine became normal. I cheerfully recommend Foley’s K i d u e y Remedy. Kerr’s Pharmacy.

MR FARMER: —Are you looking ahead for your son, or if you are a renter are you looking ahead for yourself? Are you going 1o accept this chance for a homestead that Uncle Sam has made possible for you? Are you dozing over this, while your more alert neighbor is acting? Don't you realize that the irrigated homesteads now being offered by the government iu the Big Horn Basin and North Platte Valley will prove to be the richest land prizes that the government has yet bestowed on its citizens. You certainly ought to know of the present land hunger in this country. Now yon have the govern ment furnishing you 80 and 1G0 acre tracts of land irrigated by the intelligence and financial security of Uncle Sam who has suddenly be come the greatest irrigator the world has ever known, who offers you abundant and perpetual water with the choicest laud at $.'15 to $45 per acre in ten annual payments without interest; land that will yield more in one year per acre than the price of the farm.
