The Nervous System the Seat of Life and Mind. Recent
 Wonderful Discoveries.

Recent discoveries have demonStrateQ tnat all the organs of the body are under the con' trol of the nerve centers, located In or near the base of the brain, and that when these are deranged the organs which they supply with nerve fluid are also deranged. When 1t Is re- membered that a serious Injury to tho spinal cord will cause paralysis of the body below the injured point, because the nerve force is prevented by the injury. from reaching tho tho dcrangement of the nerve centers will cause the derangement of the various organs which they supply with nerve force.
 Two-thirdS of chronic diseases are due to the imperfect action of the nerve centers at the base of the brain, not from derange- ment primarily originating in the organ It. Self. The great mistake of physicians In treating these diseases Is that they treat the organ rather than the nerve centers which are the cause of tho trouble.
 DR. FRANKLIN MILES, the celebrated spc- cialist, has profoundly studied this subject for over 20 years, and has made many important discoveries in connec tion with 1t, chief among them being the facts contained In the above statement, and that the ordinary methods Of treatment are wrong. All headache, dizZl- ness. dullness, confusion. pressure, blues, mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, St. Vitus dance, etc, arc nervous diseases no matter how caused. The wonderful success of Dr, Miles Restorative Nervine is due to the fact that it is based on the foregoing principle.

COCON|NO COUNTY
THE ONLY COUNTY IN ARIZONA WHERE CROPS CAH BE RAISED WITH
 OUT IRRIGATION.
Rich Valleys, Broad Expanso of Tow crinR Pines.-A Magnificent CH- mate, Where sickness is Almost Unknown.-Catti sheep, Farm ing and Timber Industries

CocOnlno county was, Iill reuruaty, 1891, part of the original mother county of Yavapai. Approaching the needs of the country around Flagstaff, the legislature of that year passed an amicable act of separation, dividing the area into two almost equally sized counties. Coconino's portion of about l5,000 square miles includes the major portion of the Grand Canyon of the Col orado of Arizona, extending north to the line of Utah.
 About two million acres of this ex- panse is covered with dense growth of fine pine timber; naturally, therefore, numbering is one of the principal in dustries. Cattle are reared by the thousand, and sheep in numbers almost beyond computation graze on the yer dant slopes. Farming of latc has be- come an important factor in the devel- opment of the counIy's resources. There are many beautiful mountain valleys where farms of fifty to hundred acres have already been established, and the extension of the county's cultivated area is being pushed by intelligent farmers from the Eastern States.
 Within the county of Coconino, of which Flagstaff is the county seat, are about 2,750,000 acres of fertile farm ing land susceptible of cultivation without irrigation. Of this vast area not more than ten thousand acres are under cultivation. Almost in the cen ter of this garden land Flagstaff is located. It is to her markets that the patrons of husbandry must look for their supplies, and this is the gateway through which their products flow into 'the markets of the world"
 The soil for the most part is rich oam, containing the elements of sus teEance on winch cereals and potatoes best thrive. In an average season the yield of potatoes IS from five to six tons per acre. Grain harvests arc as abundant as in the rich fields of Kan sag and Illinois. The fruits of Oak Creek and those raised by the settlers in the rich region around Tuba City are equal in slze and flavor. to the picked specimens which grace the hor- ticultural fairs of renowned fruit-grow. ing sections.
 Of such land as is above described there is still quantity equal in area to the State of Massachusetts open to settlement under the homestead laws. It is safe to predict that within a few years there will not be within Coconino county ten square miles of land having any agricultural value under the owner ship of the government. Resulting from this, community of the utmost desirability will develop, of which Flagstaff will be the trade center and supply point
