The People Believe
What They Read About Hoods
Sarsaparilla
Their Faith in This Medicine Is
Grounded on Merit
They Know 1t Absolutely Cures
When Other Medicines Fail

Hoods Sarsaparilla is not merely SIM
pie preparation Of Sarsaparilla, Dock,
Stillingia and a little Iodide of Potassium.
Besides these excellent alternatives, it
also contains those great anti-bilious and
liver remedies, Mandrake and Dandelion.
1t also contains those great kidney reme-
dies, IVA Ursi, Juniper Berries, and
Pipsissewa.
Nor are these all. Other very valuable
curative agents are harmoniously COM
bined in Hoods Sarsaparilla, and it is
carefully prepared under the personal
supervision of regularly educated phar-
macist.
Knowing these facts, is the abiding faith
the people have in Hoods Sarssparilla q
matter of surprise? You can see why
Hoods Sarsaparilla cures, when other
medicines totally, absolutely fail.
"My little girl was afflicted with
eczema and suffered for seven years. She
was attended by physicians and tried
many different kinds of medicine with
out relief. After taking a few bottles Of
Hoods Sarsaparilla she was cured" MRS.
EMMA FRANKLIN, Honeoye, New York.

BIG ARKANSAS DRY
MR. JONES SAYS TIE RIVER Is
FILLED WITH SAND AND TREES.

Mr.. Siias Rut,edge Yesterday on Behalf
of the Farmers Living Along the Big
Arkansas River Paid to Messrs. Crew.
son and Houston the Money Necessary
to Commence the Suit Against the
Rocky Ford Irrigation Company There
Is Absolutely no Water In the River Bed
North of the Junction
On last Thursday the Eagle published
an account Of the farmers living along
the Arkansas river bringing suit against
the Rocky Ford Irrigation company. re-
straining them from using the water of
the river for irrigation purposes. Yes
terday Mr.. Silas RutIedge, as the repre-
sentative Of the farmers concerned,
paid TO Messrs. D. B. Crewson and ]. D.
Houston the amount necessary TO start
the suit and to defray the expenses of
the attorneys to Denver, where the ac-
ton will be instituted
Mr.. Dan NJ. Jones, who lives on his
farm in Delano township. was in the city
yesterday. His farm borders on wha,
was once the Arkansas river. He is one
Of the oldest citizens in the county. He
said yesterday in regard to the proposed
movement: IF the sand and trees en-
croach on the bed of the Arkansas river
in the next five years as 1t mas in the
past five years there will be no river bed
perceptible. During the past five years
millions Of small cottonwood and willow
trees have sprouted up along the banks
OF the river. They have now grown to
the height Of about seven feet. Sand mas
blown among the trees until now what
was once the river bed is good substan-
tial river bank. At the present time
where the main channel Of the river was
wont 10 run is covered with cottonwood
trees about six inches high. The river
bed is gradually filing up and it won't
be long until there Is no bed at ALL There
is no water in the Arkansas river above
Where the Little Arkansas river empties
into it. 1t is absolutely dry for many
miles beyond Hutchinson. The water is
all consumed by the irrigators in the
western part of the state. The trees and
sand which is now filling in the river,
does not occur only on one side of the
river but will probably 200 feet fiIl-in on
one mans farm on the west side and will
then skip for some distance and fill in
on the east side. Should there be an ex-
ceptional heavy snowfall this winter i'm
the mountains when the spring thaw
comes the farms in this section of the
country will De flooded and the crops
along the river bottom farms will be de-
stroyed. 1 think the action now in hand
should receive the assistance of all the
farmers living along the Arkansas river,
if for nothing more than their own pro-
lection. 1t would vastly increase their
crops besides furnishing good fishing for
those interested in the piscaterial art"

az DON'T DELAY

Nov, on the other hand, if the peo
pie of that section devoted themselves
to a number of products, say, cotton,
oranges, figs, olives and cemphor, there
would be hardly possibility of any
thing occurring that would destroy all
of them at one time, so that they would
have one or more product to fall back
on in case of the failure of others.
''The Department of Agriculture is
doing a great deal to induce the exten
sion of olive growing. The olive js c1il.
tivated quite extensively i'll California,
and with great profit, fer olives grow
ers sell all of their product right in
their own State so that almost none of
it comes East.
"The department is now trying to
induce olive growing in the South, but
like every thing else connected with
this branch of the department, it is
slow work. The people want to see
some one growing the thing and know
that it is profitable before they will at
tempt it themselves.
''Our experiment. stations through
out the country do not do as much in
that line as they would. They should
take hold of some of these articles and
show that they can be grown success
fully and with profit, and have suh
cient accurate data to give to the peo
pie in regard to the various products
They spend too much time growing
lots of potatoes in order to ascertain
which is the earliest-a fact which the
farmers knOw-instead of introducing
new things and showing that there is
prOdG in their growth.
'The olive was introduced into Flor
ida about $50 years ago by the Minor
cams, who came TO this country from
Spain, and olives are known to have
been grown as far North as South Caro-
lima. The Minorcams we're kind of
semi slave race, and were all the time
lighting among themselves, and " lGh
other nations who drove them out of
Florida, and the olive industry then
went to ruin.
This raising Of olives is not all there
is to the industry. The hardest part
is TO get in with the trade. A gentle
man from the South. who had raised
olives took his oil to New York but the
merchants there would not buy it, and
he afterwards sold it to shoe factory.
The merchants said that the people
who use olive oil are very particular,
and only use certRin brands Of i'm
ported olives. They said they could
not sell a new brand and consequently
would not buy his oil. 1t requires a
great deal of time, and American
olives can only De made profitable when
the people realize that the American
product is as good as the imported one.
I'm California, when the people first
made olive oil, they had the same
trouble IN selling it. and in fact gave it
away until the people began TO find out
that it was q splendid article. The d.
mand for California olive oil increased
until now the supply~dOes not equal
the demand" SMITH D. FRY.

The butter is shipped to the Agent Of
the Bureau of Animal Industry, at
London, and he places it in the hands
of commission men or retailers as he
sees fit, and gets from them and the
consumers statements concerning the
butter and their ideas of it as compared
with other butter which is found on
the market at the same time. These
statements have been most encourRg
ing, and IN many cases they are to the
effect that the American butter is bet
ter than it was possible to find on the
market before it's advent. -----.-
The shipments of the department
have resulted in some of the large com
mission men in London sending over
to the Americans to make permanent
arrangements to take their entire out,

forwarded butter in carload lots on the
strength of reports which have come
from those who have been handling
the department butter.
A great many inquiries have been
received at the department for direc
tion as to how to prepare and pack
butter for the English market, and a
bulletin will be issued and arranged
giving in full the information which
has been obtained by experiments.
It has been found that the best
American butter can be sold at shil-

the English consumers for the Danish,
French, and Finish butter OF the very

have shown decided profits. The de

The Bishop Apologizcd.

DR.. Temple was wont to rule the do
cese of Exeter with an iron hand, and Il
tale is told of deanery meeting at
which he presided, when the subject for
discussion WAS 1.-The Hindrances to the
Spiritual Life of the Diocese" After tho
discussion had proceeded for some time
a vicar electrified his audience by de-
claring that the greatest hindrance TO
the full spiritual life was none other
than the bishop himself. II repeat it, I"
said the speaker calmly, ''our right rev
ercnd father i'll God is very far from be-
ing II father to any of us. Your manner
toward u.s." he continued, turning to
the bishop, is harsh i'll the extreme,
while your method of rule is this: You
treat us all, old and young, las if we
were set of schoolboys." This bold
statement drew from the bishop an apol-
ogy, and he explained that beneath his
brusqueness of manner was very gen.
uino sympathy with the work of all tho
clergy. This impeachment created the
more sensation i'll the meeting because
it came from son of DR.. Temples pred
eccssor. tho famous Henry of Excter.-
Westminster Gazette.
