SCROFULA
Il is Foul Dlood's ADVERTISE
ment
But II is Soon Cured by Hoods
SaTsapariIIa.

Yes, Scrofula, ifanything, may be called
the advertisement OF foul blood. 1t is the
scourge of the world - offensive, painful,
facilitating, stubborn and well nigh
uncomfortable.
Outward applications do not cure, they
only drive the difficulty to new quarters.
Emollients may palliate, they cannot
abolish the evil. There is but one sure
way out, and that is to eliminate the
faint from the blood.
There is one remedy that can effect this,
and it is the only one that, so 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 inn
pure blood. There were running sores
all over her body and they caused her
much suffering. We tried medicines that
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
lcine. 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 NJ

No Over Production Of Apples.

The Hon. N. F. Murray writing to
the Southwest, says that for 40 years
we have heard great deal about over
production of apples, but have never
seen it. On the other hand the apple
markets growand widen from year to
year. 1t is easier to sell 500 car loads
today than one wagon load 40 years
ago. This year the whole country is
distressingly short of apples. They
are going at fancy prices on the entire
Pacific Coast and IN the east The crop
is far short of the estimate few
months ago. The markets open TO the
apple growers in the Pacific North
west are almost unlimited and by the
time the orchards now planted come
into bearing, we will just be able to fill
a few of the large.export orders await
ing our crops. Select carefully, COM
merclal varieties and give proper at
tention to cultivation of the apple
orchard.
