that have the supply will override the
others that have it not.
LIVELY ANTICIPATIoNs.
Some lively discussions are anticipat-

which will not rep.lt until Saturday.
William L. Symthe of the Irrigation
Age says that it is a larger question
than that OF cesqion of lands to the
government, but he hopes for en- AMIGA

Hon. Jerry Millay says that thore are
lively times ahead for the convention on
this question of cession of arid lands to
the states and Arizonas' statehood.

UNITE THE LAND AND WATER In THE ARID REGIONS"

The readiest and most expeditions
way to bring about measures looking to
the settlement OF the arid regions BY
farming communities will be found in
the organization of the farmers now oc-
cupying them into state associations
and county societies, on the plan of the
agricultural associations OF the older
states. These latter have led not only
to the successful tillage of the area be-
tween the Atlantic and the Rocky
mountains, but also to more perfect
knowledge OF the best methods OF tillage,
proper rotation of crops. An inter
change OF knowledge between farmers
has resulted. upon which knowledge has
been founded department of our gov
eminent which represents the farmer in
the councils of tie nation. Ali this can
be made true for the irrigation farmers
of the arid regions, and such organiza-
tions az these will give all the needed
reforms have spoken OF. 1t will gather
systematic knowledge OF irrigation
results, guide to incoming population,
rendering it certainty that they can
live and thrive in the arid regions with
greater ease and prosperity than else
where. The state irrigation societies
should arrange for the meeting OF an
irrigation convention to be held in two
years to be attended by delegates from
all state societies. This general conven-
tion can then speak by authority and
communicate to the states and general
government the authentic information
upon which legislation for the benefit of
those concerned can be reliably founded.

down to a common Pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases

A benefit is always experienced from
the first bottle, and perfect cure is war

When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver or

stopped, and always disappears in a week
