The farmers on Mud Fork are
protecting themselves against the
worthless ours that are running

resided in this locality he would not
have made such a mistake IN the
location and would have changed the
date of his visit back to about 1875.

the Town Clerk at Cavalier, N. D.,
Mr.. w. Sererus, says: 81 was troubled
with asthma for twenty years; about
eight years ago I started to use your
Asthma Cure, and | have not had an
attack for six years"
