A BAD CASE OF FLux CURED.

My little boy. about eight months old was
taken with tiux. After several days, we
commenced giving Chamberlain's collie,
cholera, and darrh@a remedy, according to
directions. We were very uneasy about the
child and sent for physician. l told him
what we had been doing, and showed him
the medicine. He examined it, and told ms
the best thing we could do WAS to go ahead
and give the remedy. We used about half OF
small bottle, and cured the child, although
the child was so low that he had no use of
himself. We thought so much of our rem
edy that we would let no one else have it.
told my wife few days ago that must write
and tell you what Your medicine had done.

The Experimental Farm.

Delta county offers the best location
for tie experimental farm on the west
cru ainps. Here is soil typical of til.
whole reservation. 1t is near a rail
road. 1t is midway of the lowest an,
highest farming lands and fruit grow
ting sections. 1t would be centrall
located for the distribution of seeds,
plants and trees. The water supply
would be sufficient. Montrose would
he to" far to the south and too high to
give any tests for the whole country.
Grand Juacti0u would be too far to the
north and too low to give accurate tests
for the whole country. In this we do
mot insist that Nontrose and Mesa
counties are not good agricultural coun-
ties. but that each is an extreme of the
producing portion of the reservation.
We want to see such public enter
prise aS is an experimental farm. so To-
Gated that there will lie the greatest
good to the greatest number. We do
not place this demand upon county
lines. The State undertakes the MAIN
tenance of the farm not for counties
but for the people. We intend to dis
cuss this question fairly and ask that
the press of the State have a clear un.
drrstanding OF the subject.
Our Representative. we do not wish
to call in question his motives. had the
location of the farm restricted to town
ship II. in ranges 81 or 92. on the North
Fork. That is a fine fruit gr6wing sec
tion. but it is 80 miles from railroad
and. while the soil is very fine. it is
mostly river bottom loan and would
not be type of the greater part of the
reservation. The mistake was made,
the delay must follow, the people must
be deprived of the benefits of the farm
for at least two years and perhaps long
er. 1t WAS a piece of special legislation.
The act. SO far as the western slope is
concerned, was not drawn with that
breadth of comprehension necessary to
benefit the greatest number of pesple.
The time has passed for special fa-
vOrs topersons or interests to he shown
in Colorado legislation. Colorado is
no longer corrupt pocket borough. it
is a great State. with great possibilities.
The people are citizens. not by virtue
of county lines. We ask tina, this new
spirit of State pride. OF fairness and of
reform be given Il part in the location
of the experimental farm on the west
ern slope.

w. C. 7. u. NOTES.
"For God and Home and Ndtire Land"
Edited by Mrs. Rose G. Brnsted. Supt. of Press
Work and Hygiene.

The Home Protection Club entertained a
large number of our citizens at their last
meeting, by an interesting discussion as to
the necessity Of a third party in the ultimate
extermination of the liquor traffic.
1t was thought best to render no decision
as to the merits of the disputants. We do not
criticize, however we cannot forbarc speaking
of some points made by the negative, e. the
introduction of Temperance text books in our
schools. If credit were given where due, it
would be to the hard working women Of our
Union, who can tell pretty well how much
talking tramping, working and praying it
takes to influence a Republican or Democrat
ic Legislature.
And if You will read the history of Women
and Temperance. by Francis f. Willard, you
will not wonder that we have grown tired of
having to work so hard to get men to do what
is right and best for themselves, their child.
rem and their homes. And so it is very nat
ural for the w. C. T. T. to help and cheer ON
the Prohibition party, and to feel justly proud
of men who are disposed to do what is right
without being driven to it.
Who is your candidate for President? Don't
settle the matter until you have a talk with
your wife ask her advice. Ifshe SAYS "Fisk :"
don't tell her she knows nothing about poll
ties, but find out whether her reasons for that
decision are not such as should influence you.
AS the Republican party is not afraid of
women in the ranks, we know of no reason
why the Prohibitionists should be. Our Miss
Francis E. Willard is not bit more danger
Gus than the Republican, Mrs. J. Ellen Fos-
ter. Both are as sharp rs steel traps, and can
command larger audience than any male
speaker in either party. And when they do
speak they say something whether you like
1t or not. Women are "Wonderfully and
Feariuly" gotten up, and when they take
hold of political questions the fur flies.
They say Gen. Harrison is a temperance
man, though the indianapolis Journal says,
che is too good Republican to be Prohib-
ZIONIST" At the request of Mrs. Cleveland her
husband has become an nbstainer. Clinton
b. Fisk not only drinks no intoxicants, but is
opposed to allowing anybody else to be tempt
ed into indulgence of a dangerous appetite.
Which is the best temperance man?
