STOCKMEN.
They Are Making All Kinds of Money
This Year.

John w. Springer, chairman of the
National Stock Growers association,
returned last night from quite an ex-
tended trip through Wyoming. Mon

years for the ranges" he remarked.
that the ranchmen have any memory
of. In Wyoming. Mantana and North
and South Dakota they appear to have
what might be termed a new grass
that is. it is new to the scientific world.
The ranchmen call it the wheat grass
on account OF the resemblance it bears
to wheat in height and head. AS you
look a field of it over it almost seems
that it is a field of the bread-giving ma
tcrial. There is a berry in the head
that is practically wheat in miniature
and seems to possess all the food
critics that wheat would. The stock
fattens on this easily and when it
cures and lays on the ground it be-
just about as good a winter food
as il is a summer food. know of some
l200-pound stock that brought SAGE on
the Chicago market and the returns
came in while I was there. 1t is a great
country.
Yes. there is a great shortage in cat
tie. Out in that country | think it is a
fair estimate to say that the shipments
will be 40 per cen less thar they were
last year. The cattlemen are making
money this year, however. and are tax

the national association to exert con-
centrated action for uniform laws to ap-

Yes, Scrofula, II anything, may be called

scourge OF the world - offensive, painful,

uncomfortable.
Outward applications do not cure, they
only drive the difficulty to new Quarters.
Emollients may palliate, they came.
abolish the evil. There is but one sure
way out, and that is to eliminate tho
faint from the blood.
There is one remedy that can effect this,
and it is the only one that, 80 far as We
know, has almost invariably succeeded
even where the system has been poisoned
by long years of faint, and the ravages to
be repaired are tremendous. That remedy
is Hoods Sarsaparilla. Read this:
"My daughter was afflicted with i'm
pure blood. There were running sores
all over her body and they caused her
much suffering. We tried medicines thas
were recommended as blood purifiers,
but could not see that they did any good.
A friend told me about Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla and began giving the girl this med
icine. The result was that she was per-
fectly cured after taking a few bottles.
She has had no symptoms OF scrofula
sores since that time" MARIETTA M.

so small as to indicate that the system

it is no random assertion to say that
