THE VOICE OF rae PEOPLE.

The people, as whole, seldom make
mistakes, and the unanimous voice of
praise which comes from those who have
used Hoods Sarsaparilla, fully justifies
the claims of the propIietors of this great
medicine. Indeed, these very claims are
based entirely on what the people say
Hoods Sarsaparilla has done for them.
Read the abundant evidence of its cura-
tive powers, and give it fair, honest
trial.

small grain will be planted in these
parts this year than formerly, which is
move in the right direction. Corn
has been a paying crop, at 20 to 80 bush
els to tho acre, but much more could be
realized from the smaller cereals. Much
larger proportionate crops could be
raised of these, rs our cool nights

productions" 1t is pleasant to know
that tho farmers Of north Texas are
turning thor attention TO The cultiva-
ton Of the cereals, aud while the HER.
AID would not advise that cotton should
be neglected, it can but rejoice TO know
that the farmers of this section Of the

production OF small grain and corn. A
diversity of crops will pay bettor, and
tho farmers are beginning to realize
this fpct.
