The complicated female organism is
po delicately adjusted as to be easily
thrown out of balance. As a result,
health and strength are affefcted by
divers diseases. Motherhood, family,
pociety all levy such drains upon her
ptrength that most women break under1
the nervous tension. The demands
Upon her nervous strength are much
greater than similar demands of the
Opposite sex. Hence she must be sup
plied in greater measure with the ele
ment—iron—that gives strength. The
reason women feel tired and worn out
r ad suffer from headache, pains in the
back and limbs, etc., is because they
have used up their supply of iron.
Menstruation trouble is largely caused

An Illogical Defense.
The defense of the trusts on the
Assumption that they are necessa
ry to the existence of business, to
the promotion of industry, is
wholly illogical. There is wide
spread complaint of these combi
nations because they are doing in •
calulable barm in various ways.
That the popular feeling against
the trusts in all paits of the coun
try is very strong there is abund.
ent evcUence., This opposition
is not confined to those who mere
ly cry out against unpleasant con
ditions, without stopping to in
quire carefully who is responsible
for them. It is fully shared in by
the most careful students of econ
omic law and tendencies. The
president himself has confessed
the influences of the trusts upon
prices by the steps he has taken
against them, however ineffectual
they may turn out to be. His at
titude is a rebuke to those who
say there are no trusts, as well as
those who maintain that the trusts
cannot be fought and suppressed

without doing infinite damage to
busines/s The attitude of the pres
ident is inconsistent with the ac
tion of his party. If there is need
of a regulation of trusts the need
is at the present time, and Con
gress ought not to have adjourn
ed without doing something to re
strain them. To say that hostility
to trusts is hostility to business is
o rebuke tne president. But it
also gives notice that Republican
contrcl of the next House means
that the trusts will be protected.
The object is to get the people
to believe that the Republican
party will fight the trusts—after
the election. If the people bel eve
thi \ they will probably elect a
majority of Republicans to the
next House. If they do not be
lieve it, there may be a good deal
of a shower after all.—Louisville

Southern Farm Lands to Advance.
Never in the history of the
United States has there been such
an active demand for farm lands
throughout the entire northwest,
ucr such a phenomenal advance
in prices as during the past three ;
yeais. In Illinois the advance has j
been from 390-to $150 per acre; in I
Iowa from $35 to $75, and even
h ghtr; in Minnesota from $15 to {
$30, and in South Dakota from
$\5Q to $30 Real estate prophets
and (there have each year pre
dicted the top had been reached',*
and prices must decline. Such,
howevc r,has not been the case. On
the contrary, noi only practical
fai mers, but bankers, mechanics, J
merchants and manufacturers
having idle money, have sLown
their conlidence in the future of
cultivable lands by making liberal1
land investments.
The question now agitating the
mindB of all real estate agents,
through whom 90 per cent ot all
the farm lauds are sold is. where
caa we tiad low priced real estate
anlwheie will be the next great
advancein land?,
I advise all real estate agents
and others who handle farm lands
that every indication now points
t> the South as the center of the
qcx* great boom, and our reasons
for thinking this are based upen
ire lonowiug iacis:
Southern farm lands are sd low,
as compared with the maiket val
ue of Southern farm products. To
illustrate: In Iowa lands’selling
in the market for $60 to $75 per
acre, are rented for only $3 per
acre. In Mississippi, and especi
ally in the great cotton belt, the
Mississippi valley improved plan
tations can be bought at from $30
to $35 per acie, and rented easily
rented at from $6 to $7 per acre
cash, or, what is better at the
present high price of cotton, fpi
100 pounds of lint cotton per acre,,

more than half what they are in'

Eyery farm is a factory in which
nature is the boss. The soil and^
seed are the materials and the
farmer is the workmen. Those
workmen should be as skilled in
their trade as the mi chinist, the
printer, or the steelmaker. It has
come to pass that farming must be
done in the most scientific man
ner in order to insure success.

Hardy Opposed to Vardanian's Plan.
President J. C. Hardy, of tbe
Misaiaaippi Agricultural and Me
chanical College, is outspoken in
opposition to the proposition of
Major Vardaman, candidate for
governor, to divide the school
fund betweeu tbe races, allowing
the negro only such schools as
are justified by the taxes paid b>
the race, and predicts that it
would be a serious complication to
the race problem , an retie n tha
will not be countenanced by tbe
people of Mississippi.
Major Vardaman is pushing his
issue with much vigor and his re
torts to tbe public mon who op
pose him are. somewhat impolite.
In a recent issue of the Green
wood Gommonweath he refers to
Dr. T. J. Bailey, editor of the
Baptist, wbieh published a strong
editorial on the subject, as “a lit.
tie squirt, ’’ and ebarterizes his ut
terance as ''pusillanimous asini
ty.” Dr. Bailey retorts somewhat
in kind by sayiDg that Major Var*
daman is nut a decent man to
elect governor.
