wholesale clothing and notion
house in Ilarrisburg, passed
through this place last Thursday,
accompanied by his famiiy, en

teen counties in south-central
Pennsylvania, calling on dealers.
Undertaker II. S. Daniels ac
companied by A. J. Martin went
to Everett on Wednesday of last
week to receive the body of Mrs.
M. M: Hockensmith, which was
shipped from Illinois. Next day
they brought the remains to her
former home in Licking Creek

were made for the funeral on
Friday. Friends from Illinois
who came with the body were:
Scott, the son at whose home
Mrs. Hockensmith died, Ell
Sipes, a cousin; Martin Fields, a
son-in-law; and Martin L. Sipes,
a brother. These four visited
Mrs. H. S. Daniels, in this place
Tuesday, and on Wednesday re
turned to Illinois.

Country. Mr. McDowell is a
forceful speaker, and held the at
tention of his audience until long
after darkness hid the face of the
speaker from the hearers. Many
of his illustrations were drawn
from personal observation. He
is one of the Secretaries of the
General Synod of the Lutheran
Church. His work in the home
mission field has afforded oppor
tunities to study the question of
making Americans of the 1,000,'
000 lowly immigrants that annu
ally arrive on our shores. Who
knows but that the United States
may be the nation favored of God

of the world? Thousands of these

Story For Farmer Boys.
It is a loug titno since I wrote
a "story" for the farmer boys of
the Nkws, sol will tell you of a
dream I had one day when 1 was
thinking how to help tho boys to
have a botter time in thecouutry.
It was not the kind of dream we
have while slopping, but it was
one of those "dreams" we some
times have when we are widest
awake.
I dreamed of what Fulton coun
ty would be like If each and every
man and woman over eighteen
years of age was a doctor a real
doctor educated in our schools
of medicine, so that they were
skillful in the prevention, detec
tion, and cure, of all ills. What
a wonderfulcounty this would be!
Think of it! Can you imagine
how it would feel to live in a place
like that? Stop a moment and
read that again. It sounds fun
ny, does It not? "Foolish tothiuK
of it," do you say? Well Jet us
see about that.
"Sickness" is net confined to
your, and to my, body. There is
sickness on every farm in tbis
and in every other county in
Pennsylvania that is cost'.ng us
so much money that thousands of
us are kept poor during all our
lives. It is called Soil Sickness,
and it needs just as intelligent at
tention from a doctor as do meas
les, typhoid, or tuberculosis, for
which we call in the best doctor
in tho community. The man or
woman who can intelligently treat
soil sickness is every whit as
much of a doctor as is the man
who can cure typhoid. There is
not a man or a woman in the
country, if he or she have aver
age intelligence, that cannot be
come a skillful soil doctor. There
are a few counties in the State in
which a start has been made to
make every farmer a doctor, and
it was my dream to picture to my
mind what it would be like to live
In a county like that. Hundreds
of changes in our daily work will
take place when each man be
comes bis own soil doctor. To
day we buy fertilizer just like we
buy patent medicine nostrums
about which we know nothing;
but we buy it because the quack
who compounded it says it is
good for pretty nearly every
thing; and many of us will not
isten to tho advice of the dealer
who would rather sell us the
proper kind, and would do so it
we told him what wo wanted to
cure by ttlling him the "symp
toms."
The patent medicines we buy
f ir our soils are put up in bags,
and labeled "Potato," "Corn,"
'Crop Grower," "Grass," and a
ot more brands that are about
as apt to be what our soil needs
as are the patent medicines we
buy "sight unseen" for our bod
ies, and which leave bad effects
as often as we take thoua, because
they contain something that is
not suited to our pirticular case.
There is no reason why all should
not be soil doctors, because there
are less than a b&t dozen medi
cines that wo absolutely netd to
know how to compound; while
the man who doctors our bodies
must know how to compound a
hundred kinds some of which
would explode and blow him to
pieces if ho happened to mix the
wrong kinds. Just as no two
men sick with typhoid can be
treated exactly alike, on account
of constitutional differences, so
no two fiolds or both sides of
tho same field can he treated
alike without Injury to one of
them, and this injury costs dearly-
If the Nkws is not correct in
its efforts to stir up more of its
readers to tho realization of the
need of at least one County Soil
Doctor to live with us and guide
us, then pleaso explain the rea
son for the wearing out of so
much land that was once produc
tive? Explain too, tha reason
why similar land, under scientif
ic treatment, has been known to
increase in productiveness, al
though used for centuries to
grow exhausting crops?
