Tho readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
Of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have SO much faith in its cura-
tive powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure

When to Sell.

A potato grower of long experience,
discussing the question of whether it
was better to sell or hold the crop says:
My opinion is that it is undoubtedly
best to sell at 30 cents per bushel at
digging time. even if one were assured
of double the price four months after
storing. Handling, shrinkage and de-
cav in four months usually reduce the
amount stored about One-third, and !
have never found out when to market
a well grown crop

Retter Every Year.

Time was when the glorious climate of
California did not attract tourists But
year after year the tide of travel sets in
stronger and stronger every fall and winter
toward this favored region. There is no
climate like it on this continent for win

Union Pacific System has this season teen
brought to a degree of perfection which
leaves nothing to lie desired.
