Modern Farming Methods to Be Shown
In Novel Way.
Like the phonograph, the moving pic
ture machine is to be made to serve
a more worthy purpose than gathering
tn the nickels and dimes at small the
ater doors. It is to be put to the most
practical purpose imaginable showing
modern methods on the farm.
C. W. Martin, an Omaha Insurance
man, has demonstrated that the-moving
picture machine was made for a
more worthy purpose thau reproduc
ing a prize fight by rounds, showing
children how daring firemen rescue
people from burning buildings" or
throwing upon a white sheet a Mex
ican bullfight or the dancers of a bal
let show. .
As a result of a conference with the
managers of the national corn exposi
tion, which is to be held at Omaha
Dec. 9 to 19, Martin is visiting the
"moder farms of Illinois, Iowa and
Nebraska and making pictures which
are to be later shown at the big agri
cultural show In Omaha and the vari
ous colleges and experiment stations In
the west. Farmers will be shown on
the canvas using the latest planting,
cultivating and harvesting machinery.
says an Omaha correspondent of the
Chicago News. While a lecturer ex
plains the process the model farmers
will be seen going about their work.
Every one will ' be Interested In
knowing something, more of the proc
ess responsible for the loaf of bread
that comes to the table dally. The
moving picture camera will show the
modern wheat drill at seeding time,
the perfection self binder which . cuts
the grain, binds, bunches, ready for
the shockers at one process, and the
modern steam thrasher which cuts the
bands from the bundles, feeds the
grain into the machine with more than
human precision, separates the grain
from the straw, fans and cleans it
ready for the great mills and elevates
the grain into the wagon ready for its
Journey from the farm to the flouring
mills.

Chronic Diarrhoea Relieved.
Edward E. Henry, with the United
States Express company, Chicago,
writes: "Our general superintendent,
Mr. Quick, handed me a bottle of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea remedy some time ago to checlt
an attack of the old chronic diarrhoea
I have used .it since that time and
cured many on our trains who have
been sick. I am an old soldier who
served with Rutherford B. Hayes and
William McKinley four years in the
23d Ohio regiment, and have no ail
ment except chronic diarrhoea, which
this remedy stops at once." For sale

TIN CAN CLUBS.
De-
Their Mission Is to Supply the
mand For New Forests.
B. H. Green of Monterey, Cal., has
sent out a circular giving information
regarding the tin can clubs through
whose beneficent activities he expects
to see the United States supplied with
needed forests.
The attempts to cultivate tree claims
in the Dakotas many years ago were
rather discouraging, says the National
Magazine, but Mr. Green insists that
he has been successful in planting tree
seeds, nuts and cuttings in refuse tiu
cans and can how show an oak tree
twenty feet high, only eight years of
age, and also a redwood tree, grown
from seed, which Is now fully thirty
feet high and only twelve years of
age. .
Mr. Green Insists that a tomato can
with a fair sized' hole'punched in' the
bottom and filled with good .earth Is
just the thing heeded to start a tree In
and that if the earth is never allowed
to become dry the growth of the young
tree will be amazing. Later the little
trees are transplanted without remov
ing from the cans, for the rust eats
away the can sufficiently to allow the
roots to free themselves as they need
more room.
An Appetizing Breakfast

Frank's Famous Frankforter Sausage.1

Cured in the good old-fashioned way by hang

Just as good for luncheon or supper, too.

kitchen from, the very choicest cuts of meat O. K.'d by government in
spectors. No adulterants are used. Chemicals and preservatives never

insist on the purest food are the largest users of them. Sold by the best
