XUMA's PROsPEEsETY.

Looking at Yuma and the county from every possible standpoint, one can plainly see that she is just enter ing upon an era of great prosperity. The success which has attended that which has been done in mining, farm ing and fruit growing is evidence sufficient to show that those who are putting their money into projects for the development of her vast natural resources. and are putting their shoul- ders to the wheel, to carry these pro jects on to completion, and thus de- velop these natural and oft times hid- den resources and bring them to pro- duction; are acting wisely, with fore thought, and so as to reap grand re- suits in the end. With such gold mines as Harqua Hala, where a 30 stamp mil pounds out from $85,000 to $l00.000 every month, with several other mines that promise just as well in fact much better at the same stage of development, with such inexhausti- ble quantities of rich ore, rich in lead, silver and gold, as are now being work ed in the Eureka, Silver, Castle Dome and other mining districts, with the gold belts of Tyson's Wells, Plo- mosa, Harrisburg and other sections, what may we not expect from her mineral resources when the present developments are completed and the mines put to production. There never has been time in their history when they produced more gold and silver than at the present, and when they looked as promising, nor were the de- velopments more satisfactory,
 The results in farming are as satis- factory as they are in mining. Everywhere Tn the county that the soil and water have been brought to- gether, the results have been wonder ful. The farmers who have tried their hands at what the soil would bring forth, have been surprised at the growth which it produces. Alfalfa  sown in October has produced two tons of good hay per acre in the fol- lowing May, and such has been the strength of the roots of the same crop that they produced no less an amount of good hay each month for five months following, or twelve tons of alfalfa hay per acre when one year old from the sowing. Other crops do as well. Two crops of corn have been raised on the same ground in one season Tn several different localities.

When sudden fainting spells come upon a lady, you may always suspect some uterine disturbances or trouble, or some great disorder in the circulation and nerve centers. < remedy that has al- ways proved successful in warding off and removing the tendency to 8 recurrence of fainting spells-that removes the cause of them, cOrrects the circulation of blood, and gives to the system that even run ming nervous energy so essential, is pr. Pierces Favoritc Prescription.
 The "Prescription :" is guaranteed to give satisfaction in every case, or money refunded. Nothing else does as much. You only pay for the good you get.
 Can you ask more?
 As Q regulator and promoter of func- tional action, at the critical period of change from girlhood to womanhood, "Favorite Prescription" is a perfectly safe remedial agent, and can produce only good results. It is equally effica- cious and valuable in it's effects when taken for those disorders and derange- mentS incident to that later and most critical period, known as "The change of Lite."
