Another Missouri in the spring of this year spent triumph for the nature-wlsard or the na- JS.OOO for crude oil to keep fires alight' in his 640-acre orchard for several cold nights. His neighbors laughed at his folly. He sold his crop In the orchard for t4,00Q. His neighbors didn't have any apples this year. It Is all a question of protecting the buds from a possible late frost. The ques tion of the success or failure of an apple crop Is often the question of one night. Heating In orchards Is accomplished by means of large lamps, resembling .cuttles, in which crude petroleum I. burned with a wick. They give forth heat and .end up enough smoke to lie as a protecting blanket over the orchar. . One orchardlst had eighty acre, of app'e trees. He equipped It with 4.000 heating pots and bought 25,000 gallons of fuel. The actual cost of the oil used and of a tenth part of the cost of the pots their life Is ten year. was only 1S75.I To this was added the expense of seven nights' firing. If it had not been for thl. heat the apples would have been completely killed, as was the case In neighboring orchards. With the firing frost was driven eff, and the crop amounted to 40,000 cases of apples, which sold for more "than $20,000.

There are no less than BOO standard va rieties of apples grown In the United States. Each section ' has its peculiar favorites, and soma are grown to eat and some are grown to sell. The man from Oregon or Washington wilt staka his for tune, his life and his sacred honor upon the proposition that a northwestern Spits enberg is the best apple on earth. Any Virginian will accept his challenge and ride forth to battle as the Knight of the Albemarle Pippin. The rural New Yorker will defend his Balwins to the last ditch. The Missourlan and Arkansas traveller will Join forces In defence of the primacy of the Wlnesap. It is a well known fact to the people of the Ozark mountains In Missouri and Ar kansas that the Wlnesap apple Is the best fruit grown on earth.

Doe. human health depend on one organ alone? This question la becoming widely discussed since L. T. Cooper first advanced his theory that th stomach la the true seat of life and all health de pended upon It. Mr. Cooper, who ha. met with remark able success in the .ale of hi. new medicine, believe that th stomach is responsible for most sickness, and that this organ la weak In the present gene ration. While discussing this theory recently, he said: "I am asked time and again to toll why my medicine has made such a record wherever I have introduced It. My answer always is 'because It re store, th stomach to normal condition.' No one .will dny that today there ar mor half-sick men and women than ever before. Nothing critical seems to be th matter with them. They, ar Just half-sick most Of the time. They don't know really what is th matter with them. I hav talked with thousands during the past two years, and few knew Indeed what their trouble was. One said nervousness, another said kidney trouble, another liver complaint, some constipa tion or heart trouble, or , lung trouble. Many .ha4 treated, aa they called it, for moat -of these disease, at different times. A very common complaint Is 'all run down," or 'tired all the time,' or 'no appetite.' "I know positively that every, bit of thl. chronic 111 health Is caused by stom ach trouble, and nothing else. My New Discovery put the stomach in sound condition In about six weeks. Mighty few people can be sick with a sound di gestion. That is w hy . my medicine Is selling at such a tremendous rate, I have convinced may ( thousands of people that these thing, are bo, and the number la growing by leaps and bound.." Among recent converts to Mr. Cooper', belief. Is A. D. Henry, a prominent farmer living on Rural Route No. 6. Jonesboro, Ark. Mr. Henry says: "For six years I wa a chronic! suf ferer from slomach trouble. In all that time I did not eat a meal to enjoy It. No matter what I at. It caused me suf fering and distress. Th pain from in digestion was terrible. I lost In strength and flesh, and was unabl to find relief. I suffered night and day, was robbed of -my sleep and rest, and ' arose In the morning feeling a tired as whan I -went to bed. ... ,. "I became all run down, and . was dragging out a miserable existence. I derived no .benefit whatever from any medicine I took and had' come to th con clusion that nothing would help me. Several months ago I was induced to. give the Cooper remedies a trial and be gan taking Cooper's New Discovery. Ita remarkable effect surprised me.
