For derangements of the di gestive organs it is a natural corrective, operating directly upon the liver and ali mentary canal, gently but persistently stimulating a healthful activity. Its beneficial influence extends, however, to every portion of the system, aiding in the processes of digestion and assimilation of food, promoting a wholesome, natural appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad breath, irregularities of the bowels, con stipation and the long list of troubles directly traceable to those unwholesome conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi ness, headache, backache and despond ency due to inactivity of the liver, kidneys and digestive tract. It is a strengthening tonic of the highest value.

"There are jH-ople who will tell you that superstitlun is dead nnd that in theso muter-of-fact days there is neither room nor time to pay heed to the strange fancies and beliefs so commonly held many years ngo," says Grace George.

Boston Transcript. daho Experiment Station Man Writet Concerning It. By R- E- Hyslop. Aitronomint, Univer"ity of Idaho Alf r.cultural Experiment Station, Moscow. On account of the numerous in quiries coming into our station, wc find it necessary to issue this press bulletin concerning the so-called "Alaska" wheat. This wheat, when given ample field space or conditions favorable to the individual plant, has a branching head borne on a rather tough straw at a height of between four and five feet. The mesh bears two and three ker nels. When grown under close field conditions the head tends to be much smaller, branches less, and the mesh bears from one to two kernels, very seldom three. If heads grown under these conditions alone were examined the impression would be obtained that this wheat never bears but two ker nels to the mesh, a mistake which some writers appear to have made. The beards, while not numerous, are dark in color and considerably stronger than w find on our common wheats, but not so long or stiff as those found on the durums or maca roni wheats. The normal kernel i? light in color, short and plump, with an unusually open groove, which al lows the kernel to be easily broken in threshing. A cross-section shows the interior to be white and powdery, with comparatively little horny starch. The shrunken kernels naturally are harder. Taking everything into considera tion, I am led to conclude that this is the Egyptian or Miracle wheat, a Poulard, and that it belongs to that variety of the Egyptian known as Eldorado, which is very closely re lated to the seven-headed variety. The Poulards are peculiarly adapted to dry regions, but never have been grown to any extent in America Their yields have never proved to be of such a nature as to warrant their extensive growth, even for stock food. And the inferiority of the flour pro duced from them has prevented their use to any extent for the production of bread. The high yields claimed for ths wheat in this section of the country, in some cases 277 bushels per acre, are fabulous. One of the promoters states that from one. head of the wheat he obtained seven pounds; from these seven pounds he produced 1545 pounds, or a yield in round num bers r,f 2'2n fold. It is from these figures that the yields noted in the various papers, and in the circular of the Adams-Hobe Seed Grain com- f liiliaetta. Idaho, are com puted. To show the ridiculousness of computing yields in this way. we de termined in a couple of cases, the number of grains produced from one seed of Little Club grown under fa vorable conditions in our breeding plat. One plant produced 1176; the other 1800 kernels. Now, reasoning as this seed company has done, if we should plant one bushel of this Little Club to the acre, wc would obtain 1176 or 1S00 bushels. This would be a rather high yield, even for Idaho. This year the company had 700 acres in "the wheat grown on different farms in this locality. A thirty-acre tract near Moscow, which was threshed in the middle of August, went about thirty-two bushels per acre. Mr. Adams stated at that time that his best yields had been thirty five bushels. He supplemented this remark, however, with the statement that his stands were poor in every case. But considering the large acre age, the fact that several different farmers grew the crop, and the effect of a close stand, noted above, we must take this as an indication, at least, ot the yielding power of the wheat. This, however, would not be considered an extra large yield for this country. The analysis of the wheat upon which the company appears to base its hopes amounts to practically noth ing in determining the bread-making nti'-ilitv of the flour. It is true, that bhiestem wheat, which analyzes higher in protein than Little Club, makes a better quality of flour, but it is also true that macaroni wheat, which an alyzes higher in protein than Blue stem, makes a lower class of flour, and consequently is discriminated against by the miller. The low-grade flours turned out from our mills usu ally show a higher protein content than the patent. Corn has consider able protein, but the chemist seems unable to find any gluten (that all es sential part of a good flour). Even if the chemist had found a high gluten content in "Alaska" wheat, we would still not be justified in concluding that the wheat would make a good quality of flour. The proof of the wheat is in the bread it will make, promised to have a milling test madt Upon our request the company has soon. Until this test is made, how ever, we must assume that the wheat will make no better flour under the name of "Alaska" than it did when known as "Wheat of Miracle." In spite of all the beautiful stories which have been written concerning the origin of this wheat, regardless of the many wonderful things which have been imagined about its quality, and taking into consideration the im pression as to yield, which has so skillfully been thrown broadcast throughout the American continent by this seed company, who advertise their wheat for sale at $'-'o per bu-hcl. we have yet to find any point of merit in it which would warrant the public paying more for "Alaka" wheat thai: the prevailing mapket price of oui common varieties.

MAKES A LASTING CURE There are certain mineral medicines which will remove the external symptoms of Contagious Blood Poison, and shut the disease up in the system for awhile, but when the treatment is left off the disease will surely return Then the loathsome symptoms of ulcerated mouth and throat, copper-colored spots, falling hair, sores and ulcers, etc., are usually worse because the disease has made rapid progress on the internal members, and weakened the constitution and general health of the sufferer. S. S. S. is the only remedy that can be used with perfect safety in the treatment of Contagious Blood Poison, and with the assurance that a lasting cure will result. This medicine, made entirely of roots and herbs of recognized curative and tonic value, antidotes and destroys the powerful virus of the disease, and by purifying the blood of every particle of the poison and enriching and strengthening the circulation, removes every sypmptom of the trouble. S. S. vS. does not hide or cover up the disease in any way, but drives it entirely out from the blood, leaving not the slightest trace for future outbreaks.
