81 suffered much as many other
women do with Kidney and Bladder
Troubles. I tried many medicines but
got no relief till I used Dodd's Kid

''Nine boxes of this remedy cured
me completely and I feel it my duty

statement.
81 can heartily recommend them
to any woman suffering with Kid
ney and Bladder Ailments

MOST people think that catarrh is a

WON'T SELL TO AMERICANS.
FtIipInos of san Fernando Tryzns
to Keep Ont Yankee Bush
ness Men.

| American enterprise in the Philip
pines is meeting with opposition at
| some places where the natives have
stopped fighting, but are evidently
not ready for Yankee business meth
DDS. One of these places is San Fer
nando, capital of La Union province,
in the Island of Luzon, states the
New York Sun.
The city has population of about
10000 and is III miles north of Ma
Mia, with which it is connected by
wagon road. The province is fertile.
raising much rice, corn, tobacco and
sugar cane.
Gold is found in the sands of the
rivers of the province, but it is
coarse. San Fernando has a good
harboF On the western coast of Luz
con.
Naturally, some of the Americans
in the Philippines have been attract
ed to this fertile part of Luzon,
which is peaceful now, but their re-
ception, in a business way, has not
been a hearty one, according to
correspondent of the Manila Free
dom. He says:
discipline is very noticeable in this
province and in adjoining districts.
Everybody is at peace with their
ueighbors, and Americans pass
through here often without arms.
.'The natives are thoroughly con-
WINGED that bamboo cannons with tin
cans and chunks of barbed wire are
no check to American soldiers, but
they are stubbornly opposing Ameri-
can occupation and enterprise by re-
fusing to lease or sell vacant land or
lots for building purposes.
81 know of five American citizens
who have been trying for more than
a month, two of them for two
months, for location upon which
to erect business buildings. The
presidente is the chief monopolist
and succeeds very well in discourage
ing Americans from locating here.
''This place has a fine harbor-the
best there is on the western coast,
with possibly one exception. It has
fine natural drainage, is the gateway
to the gold deposits of Benguet and
Lepanto provinces. San Fernando is
the shipping point for the famous
Niguillan tobacco district.
eff the civil commission will look
up the titles to terra frma about
here, it will perform benefit which
will be appreciated by all weli-dis-
posed persons residing here. Oh, for
about $4,000 Tagalogs from the vi
cinity of Manila to settle here and
teach these dogs-in-the-manger no-
canos what civility and progress are.
with that number of energetic
Tagalogs planted in this province
with its natural advantages, it would
become the garden spot of the arch
ipeIago.'

SOME WONDERFUL CROPS IN
WESTERN CANADA.
The Territorial Government Reports
Show Results BEYOND Belief.
Regina, Assineboia. Canada. la

Regina, Assineboia, Canada, January
1oth.-At the Agricultural Statistics
Branch of the Department of AgricuI-
ture for the Territories, reports are
now being received from grain thresh-
ers throughout the Territories, for
statistical purposes. The reports are
somewhat delayed this year, owing to
the extensive crop and the delay in
getting it threshed. The Department
of Agriculture is leading the way in a
new departure, with regard to the
collection of crop statistics. In the
older provinces, crop estimates are
based entirely on the opinion of per-
sons interested in the grain business
who ought to be, and no doubt are,
well posted upon the probable yields.
Still the reports are simply matter
of opinion, in which a mistake may
easily be made. The Territorial De-
partment, however, has adopted the
system of returns of crops actually
threshed, upon which to base their
reports. The accuracy of the reports
cannot, therefore, be gainsaid, for
they represent a compilation of actual
threshing results. In this connection,
it might be mentioned that the De-
partment is organizing a system of
growing crop returns, which will be in
operation next summer. The infor-
nation thus obtained; with estimated
acreage, will be available for business
men, banks, railway companies, and
other interests which have to discount
the future in making provision for the
conduct of their business.
The crop reports already to hand
show some remarkable cases of alb
normal development. In the Regina
district, many returns are given of
crops of wheat running from 40 to As
bushels to the acre.
J. A. Smell, of YorIton, threshed
$4,000 bushels of oats from $50 acres,
an average of 63 bushels per acre for
large acreage.
W. R. AfotherweII. of Abernethy,
threshed 1850 bushels of wheat from
so acre field. an average of So bush
els per acre.
In the Edmonton district, T. T.
Hutchings threshed 728 bushels of
wheat from ten-acre plot, an average
of nearly q bushels per acre.
S. Norman threshed $3.50 bushels of
oats from 60 acres of land, an average
of 116 bushels per acre.
The publication of the actual yields
of grain threshed will likely open the
eyes of the people to the great capabil-
tiles of the western Canadian prairies.
