It is to be regretted in many ways that the small gristinills of the country are passing away. Combinations of capital have made the big mills to almost control the trade. These sell their flour and feed stull's in competition with the local places. The resulss nre that the fanner must pay higher prices for his bran and shorts, while obtaining no better grade of Hour. It kills a lucrative local business to build up a company of wealthy men, not always desirable. With this .state of atlairs the fanner has everything to hise and nothing to gain. .\dult*3ration is more possible and its detection more dif- ficult. Were the farmer to purchase his own feeding grains and have them ground at his local mill, he would be receiving l)etter value for his money. Thus the piuising of the old mill works against the farmer's true interests â€" Ex. I New Goods for Spring Si?

"For seven years I have had indiges- tion and dysiM'psia. I tried scores of remedies. My room resembled a drug store with nostrums which I had bought.
