and its usefulness was consequently
limited The rice growers a few years
ago had occupied all the real rice land
OF Louisiana and East Texas and they
began experiments With this sour
grass country. The result has been
fiattering. The land has hard pan
subsoil that readily retains the water.
they have sunk drilled wells and con

pumping overflow for rice fields Is
thus obtained One we'll and tank

per was among the many seekers aft
or fortune who made the big race one
fine day in April During his travelling
about and afterwards his camping up
on his claim, he encountered much bad
weather, which. together with the Sc
we're heat, gave him a very severe diar-
rhoea which it seemed almost impos-
sible to check. and along in June the
case became so bad he expected to
die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as a last hope. A big dose
was given him while he was rolling
about and in a few minutes the dose
was repeated. The good effect Of the
medicine was soon noticed and within
an hour the patient was taking his
first sound sleep for fortnight. That

A Hunch

To the property owners Of Guthrie;
Can you give a reason, logical, or
otherwise, why Guthrie with i;s many
railroads will not be within the short
space OF two years a city OF $4,000
inhabitants? Why 1t will not be the
retail and iobbing city Of the south
west? Why it should not with its
excellent railroad facilities erect
cotton mill? It's in as good a cotton
belt as any Of the mill towns Of
Georgia and a bucket brigade"
would look awful good
Why the real estate opportunities
here don't offer better investments
than other cities OF like sizs on
earth? Why the railroads are all SO
curing terminals and acreage proper
Ity here, without its meaning that
there is going 70 be something do
ing" Why you don't during this
calm before the storm have Laux
make an abstract Of your property,
so you can correct all flaws at your
lelsureg Many a good sale falls
through on account Of defects IN titles.
You experienced this during the little
furry OF year ago.
The best OF prophets for the future
is the past" Ny hunch TO you Is that
you govern yourself as above set
forth. generate a little enthusiasm foE

1T is great country down there,
and is the country for the young
man." said E. A. Brown of Arizona,
at the Royal last evening. "All we
need is water. live in Grand canon,
Ariz.. and we have to haul all the
water we use a distance of 1853 miles.
A bath is luxury and ten gallons OF
water is all that is allowed to anyone
for that purpose We are just about
1000 feet from the Colorado river,
but that two thousand feet is straight
up in the air. To pump the water it
would be necessary to construct at
least four reservoirs at various
heights, in the side of the cliff, as no
pump could get the water up direct
from the river. President Roosevelt
was In Grand canon a few weeks ago,
and in a speech he made there said
that he would do his best to get con-
gress to appropriate money to get the
water up. so that all that country
around here could be irrigated.
1 "We are indignant at the treatment
accorded us by congress in refusing us
admission to the union. You have no
idea of the progress and wealth OF
that state; it js second TO none in
mineral wealth, and in small towns Of
only 1000 there are schooi buildings
that are as fine as those in larger
cities. We have high schools and nor
NAL schools, with the best teachers,
and the people are educated. Then,
too, the census did not give the popu-
lation correctly. Arizona has not less
than 25O.09O people, and an accurate
census will show It, In some OF the
mining towns there are more men
working in the mines under ground
than we're given in the census OF those
