Spencer was a great phrase maker.
It was be who popularised the word

Tblatlrs
In tbe fourteenth century thistles
were used ns food for cattle, and they
were considered as a crop. In the old
priory of Lindisfarne there is a note
in the archives of 1344-45 of thick
leather gloves required for tbe harvest
ers of the thistle crop. It is curious
that though tbe thistle is the emblem
of Scotland, the Scot never seems able
to say which kind of thistle is the
true national emblem. It Is said that a
thistle which resembles Carduus mari
anmt was figured on the old coinage r>f
the day of James V.. who was first to
Spilt thistles on the Scotch money. The
horn spoons sold in Edinburgh some
itime* have little silver thistles on tbe
end of tbe bandies.

HELP FOR THE FARMERS
PLANS OF CO-OPERATION IN DEM-
dNSTRATION WORK.
Or. 8. A. Knapp Calls on Farmers to
Unite in a Movement to Cultivate
Cotton on Scientific Principles.
Some Suggestions.
Plans for conducting a campaign on
tbe boll weevil by tbe United States
agricultural department have been Is
sued, together with suggestions for
demonstration farms, anu are as fol
lows:
After a full canvass by the United
States department of agriculture ot
tbe various lines of work which should
be immediately undertaken for the
relief ot the farmers in the boll weevil
infested districts of Texas and adjoin
Ing territory. It was decided that it
would not be practical to establish
.■nough general demonstration farms
in Texas, the present year, to meet
the requirements of the people.
First. To reach all the people there
should be two or more sneh farms in
•very county. The department did
not have the force to give such exten
sive work the necessary supervision.
Second. The funds voted by con
gress for the bol] weevil work were
not sufficient to carry out such a plan
Third. Even if these general dem
onstration farms were to be estab
lished, it would be a simple invitation
to the farmers to wait for another
ear and see the results; whereas, the
people need immediate relief.
It was further evident that the ap
propriation would not be sufficient to
furnish seed or fertilizer for general
distribution in sufficient quantity to
give any wide relief.
Under the above conditions the on
ly practical and rational plan for gen
eral relief that could be adopted was
co-operation.
First. Arrange to personally meet
the farmers and enroll as many as
possible in a general cooperative dem
onstration. in which each farmer
igrees to cultivate ten or twenty acres
of cotton under instructions given by
the United States department of agri
culture. which have been proven to
oe a success.
If the progressive fanners of the
state will unite in this cooperative
movement, it will influence many hun
dreds to line up In favor of better
methods, who might otherwise attempt
to make a crop upon the old plan, and
bring disaster to themselves and
others.
One of the most baneful results of
the successive failure of crops is the
loss of public confidence, and the ruin
of private credit.
This is especially disastrous where
crops are made largely upon advances,
as in cotton.
It is only by a general co-operative
effort that credit and confidence, once
destroyed, can be restored.
Men capable of organizing will be
sent into every district and a deter
mined effort will be made to secure
in the boll weevil sections a good crop
of cotton the present year.
We respectfully ask the cooperation
of all agricultural associations, farm
ers' institutes, the agricultural col
leges, the executive committee of the
Texas boll weevil convention, the in
dustrial agents of the railroads, the
press of Texas and Louisiana and all
practical farmers or assoc.atlons that
can aid in this work.
It is not necessary to wait until our
agent calls. Anyone is authorized to
send for papers containing full In
formation and organize for coopera
tion.
Second. The towns are vitally in
terested in making a successful cot
ton crop, and can essentially aid this
cooperative movement by establishing
a special cotton demonstration farm
near every town in the state. If a
demonstration is necessary to con
vince the farmers that there must
be a change in tbe methods of rais
ing cotton, then it should be made
possible for every farmer in the state
to observe the methods pursued and
note the results. The only practical
way this can be accomplished is to
have such a demonstration near every
market town.
It should be upon a tract large
enough to show field results, and no
larger. Ten to twenty acres adja
cent to a market town, well located
and managed by an energetic, practi
cal farmer, would meet all require
ments.
The department of agriculture will
undertake the full direction of such
farms.
We invite the citizens of any town
in Texas who are interested in hav
ing such a cotton demonstrat’on con
ducted in their locality to send to this
office for plans and full information.

CANCER CURED! I
Mr. W. W. Prickett. Springfield, Ills.,
writes. Sept. 10, 1901: “I had been
suffering several years with a cancer
on my face, which gave me great an
noyance and unbearable itching. I was
using Ballard's Snow Linlrfent for a
sore leg, and through accident I rubbed
some of the liniment on the cancer,
and as it gave me almost instant relief
I decided to continue to use the lini
ment on the cancer. In a short time the
rancer came out, my face healed up and
there is not the slightest scar left. I
have implicit faith in the merits of
this preparation, and it cannot be too
highly recommended." 25c, 50c and

A Message of Interest and Value to All Who Are
“Out of Sorts”
When the printer Is "out of sorts '
the proof appears “dirty” or imper
fect.
When one’s stomach gets “out of
sorts" and digestion is faulty it mars
temper oomfort and health, makes life
seem incomplete, imperfect and unsat
isfactory as a printer's ’‘out of sorts”
proof sheet.
The stomach is a laboratory where
in is prepared elements suitable for the
nourishment and renewal of every
structure of the body. If it is “oqt of
sorts" and gives down poorly prepared
material instead of nutritious chyle
the imperfect material will correspond
to the letters that the printer has
placed upside down and appear as
blotches and defacements on the page
of life.
If to think ugly things is partly as
bad as to say or act them, and the Re
cording Angel' keeps tab on one’s
thoughts, what a "dirty” page must ap
pear in the “book of life” against the
one whose stomach is frequently "out
of sorts" and whose type of nutrition
thus necessarily becomes such as to
keep mind and bodyjrritabte and up
set.
The efforts of the skin to excrete,
or throw out of the system, unripe or
ill prepared nutritional elements fur-'
nished by a stomach that is “out of |
sorts” frequently restilts in crops of
pimples and blotches fully as unsightly
as the Impress of the upside down let-!

GUEST OF CHINA’S EMPRESS.
English Lady Is Painting Her Portrait
for World's Fair.
London, Feb. I.—According to dis
patches from Pekin, an English lady.
Miss Kate Carl, has for some months
been staying with the dowager em
press of China as her guest. Miss Carl,
who Is an artist of great talent, left
Paris, where she has resided for some
years, for China last spring. Going
up to Pekin to stay with the American
minister, she was presented to the
dowager empress, who thereupon took
a violent fancy to her and insisted on
her taking up her abode In a suite of
rooms in the palace. Here, the first
English woman who ever stayed with
in the sacred precincts, is waited upon
hand and foot. The highest court of
ficials are obliged to kow-tow to her,
and she takes precedence over the late
Chinese ambassador in France and his
family, by whom she haa often been
entertained in Paris. The dispatches
say that Miss Carl is now engaged in
painting throe large portraits of her
august hostess, one of which will be
ready shortly for despatch to the St

up to these standards can be per- .

Was Furnished by United States.
London. Feb 1. —Another two-penny
tube, the Great 'Northern\and

brings a very populous district in
touch with the city. Several new im

structlng this newest underground
railroad. The tunnel itself is ot great
er diameter than the old ones and
this permits the use of larger rolling
stock. The stations also are roomy,
with large elevators and wide stair

the cars are of American and
are equipped with American air
brakes. The motor system also is
largely of American manufacture.
