The Dog Question In Naiarsth.
Among mttny Incidents of bis wan
derings through Pa lostlne, recounted
by Harry Friuick lu the Century, is
this:
"An American who was iu Nnzaretb
long ago," said a native, "told me a
strange story. 1 did not believe him,
for it cannot be true. lie said that
lu America people buy dogs." And the
mere suggostiou of so ludicrous a
transaction sent the assembled group
into paroxysms of laughter.
"They do," I replied.
The pompous ex-mayor fell into such
convulsions of merriment that his ro
tund face grew the color of burulshed
copper.
"Buy dogs?" roared his sons in a
chorus of several languages. "But
what forr
Never having nettled that question
entirely to my own satisfaction, I par
ried it with another, "How do you get
dog if you want oner"
"W-w-w-why." answered the eldest
son, wiping the tears from his eyes,
"if any one wauts a dog he tells some
one else, and they give htm one. But

OSTEOPATHY IN
NERVE TROUBLES
, As Osteopathy deals with nerves
tery largely, and makes a more thor
ough study oi their duties and their
luffertngs than any other school, It
s not at all strange that it has
achieved better results In the treat
ment of nervous diseases thaiv old
nethods have ever attained. No
ttlmulant is administered to whip
he jaded nerves into action, no sed
itive given to make it seem as If
pain and suffering hadl departed.
The actual cause of the derangement
Is hunted down, and made normal
Again. So that cures wrought by
this method, although not always
rapid, are permanent cures every
.ime. And usually very speedy re
lief is secured.

TIMBER SALES ON
NATIONAL FORE3T8
(Continued from First page.) .
Washington, and they show timber
sales of over 52 million feet, for
nearly $114,000, during the last six
months of 1909. This comparea with
sales of about 17 million ifeet, for a
total of $27,000, during the same
period hi 1908.
The local officers of the depart
ment are much pleased with the
fact that the demand for national
forest timber Is Increasing so decid
edly. The prospects for the coming
six months are regarded as promis
ing even better than what has been
realized! in the period just past; This
Increasing timber sale business op
ens the way to management of the
national forests along the best lines,
by permitting the removal of over
mature and decadent timber which,
has practically come to a standstill
In point of growth, and allowing re
placement ct these trees .with a
fully stocked' stand of raipldlyi grow
ing young trees.

upon his wife and children. At pres
ent the ei 'ryman takes his family
Into isolated regions In which) vacant
lands can. be ifound andi keeps them
there to live a period at five years
of banishment from association with

In a great many case9 the home
steader performs just as Utile work
upon his land as possible and as
soon as he gets it he removes his
family to town; where they can, have
-he advantages of school and social
Intercourse. The real object of pro
viding homes is not accomplished by
the requirements of actual! residence
upon the land. This, object would
ae accomplished, however, by the re
quirement that a man stall bring
'its land into productiveness. To pro
duce, some one must" cultivate the
land. To cultivate economically, vi
cinity, labor and intelligent, attention
are required of the entry-man or his
representative. The entryman"s de
sire is the acquisition! andi owner-
stafp of the land; title can only be
obtained through production; produc
tion necessitates increase popula
:kn, eiiher of entrymen or their
representatives. The vahie of land
vcquired by the entrymao. depends
upon cottlnuing production. Thus,
it is certain that the land once ac
quired will, under normal conditions,
continue productive, otherwise

Necessitated production' eliminates
the evil of idle land due to non-re

My bill requires that the en try man
shall cultivate at least one-eighth
of his land the second year one
fourth the third year, one-halm the
fourth and (fifth years and that he
must file in1 the local land ctf ice iby
the first of December of each year
a sworn statement verified by the
affidavits of two persons having
knowledgv of the facts, showing the
character, quantity and value of the

gation in Congress of their view of
this measure.
