SPRAYING OF FRUIT TREES
swa Experiment Station, Ames.
Iowa.

The Iowa Experiment Sta
on has just issued a spraying
alendar giving full directions
or spraying. 1t tells what to
pray and when to spray, Civ
ng a list of the insect and fun
rus enemies that affect the
lifferent fruits, and the kind of
prays to use to destroy them.
It is neatly gotten up on light
ard board in calendar form,
md may be received by sending
postal card to Prof. Charles
:. Curtiss, Director of the Ex-
pertinent Station, Ames, Iowa.
t is a publication that should
De in the hands of every fruit
grower in the state. It gives
he latest formulas for insecti-
;ides and fungicides, recon-
nending among others the sui
blur, lime and salt mixtures
or San Jose scale, and lead
.rsenate for codling moth.
Thorough spraying by the
.ruit growers of the state
would do more to increase their
profits than any other one
hing that could be done. Last
ear thousands of dollars were
ost in the state by two fungus
diseases, apple scab and leaf
spot of the cherry, both of
which might have been held in
check by spraying. Orchardists
who have been spraying system
atically for a few years have
practically eradicated the cod
ing moth, and are raising
apples that are entirely free
from worms. Spraying is a
paying proposition, and fruit
growers spray because it
means big profits.
If you are interested in fruit
growing you should write for
Shis spraying calendar at once,
and if you are not already re-
:eiving the bulletines of the
Horticultural department, re-
quest that your name be put on
their mailing list.
''There should be more Judge
divers in the country" in the
opinion of the Ames Times.
The occasion for this remark
was his address, to a lot of court

Opportunities
In the South

No portion OF the United States
has made greater progress in the
st year or two than the South.
Northern and foreign capital is
rapidly invading that section,
finding profitable investment in
the various Industries and fac
tories that are being rapidly de-
veloped and built. The great
Influx of settlers is creating sn
increased demand for lands of
all kinds and prices are gradual
ly advancing, as they will for
years TO come. Work is plen-
tiful and poverty practically
unknown. Alabama is supply
ing coal and iron to all the
world. More money can be made
and with less labor in the raising
OF small fruits and berries and
in truck patching on the Gulf
Coast than in any other state in
the Union. Strawberries from
Alabama reach northern mark
cts before those from the states
inths sou hs.st. Cattle can be
raised with great rofit. there
being millions of acres of cheap
range lands. IT you are inter-

Those whopossessed sufficient
courage to brave the storm last
night enjoyed one of the best
theatrical productions of the
season in "a Royal Slave" The
scenery and costuming of the
production were without a
doubt the best seen here this
season. The various members
of the cast were of sufficient
strength to give the piece the
presentation it required.
The Boyer is reported bank
full this morning and the ice in
the river is not yet broken.
When it breaks there is liable
to be a big gorge.

Editorial Notes

The tanners had a good time
at their institute in this city,
and it is hoped much good may
come from the meeting.
A preacher in Salt Lake has
filed a protest in the United
State senate against the seating
of Senator-elect Snoot, of Utah.
There is no particular reason
that we know of why a preacher
in Salt Lake shouldn't be a fam
atical lunatic as we'll as in any
city. Snoot will be seated.
We are fully convinced that
Council Bluffs needs a CONNER
cial club. While in that city
one evening last week we saw
rabbits running around on the
street. We will admit that it
was a little late but we didn't
see a policeman or a foot pad
Persia Globe.
When a fellow begins to see
rabbits on the street he had bet
Ter consult a doctor, for he is
pretty close to the edge.
Some of our citizens are feel
ing a little sore over the "scold-
ng' the farmers gave Missouri
Valley at the Farmers Institute
yesterday. That is foolish. If
he farmers enjoy abusing the
Valley let them go ahead, it
lon't hurt anything and it re-
ieves the farmers of their pent
Up feelings. Can't begrudge
he farmer what little fun he
an have abusing the town peo-
Die, for it comes natural for the
average granger to have it in
or the city man. Its all right;
is just they way they have of
looking at things.

Chicago & Northwestern Takes
Complete Control Of Trans.

Complete Control Of Trans
missouri Lines.
BidweIl Remains In General
Charge
''The Nebraska and Wyoming
division of the Chicago &
Northwestern railway will be
the new name of the Fremont,
Elkhorn & Missouri Valley
railroad. George F. Bidwell
will remain in general charge
of the division, c. C. Hughes
will remain in charge of the
operating department and John
A. Kuhn will be assistant gen
eral freight and passenger
agent of the Chicago & North
western railway, with head
quarters at Omaha, and in
charge of the traffic department
of the Nebraska and Wyoming
division. w. H. Jones will he
division freight agent in charge
of the freight side and j. w.
Mum will be division passen-
ger agent in charge of the pas
senger department, says the
Bee.
All this is to take effect on
March l, and the information
was brought to Omaha yester-
day from Chicago by General
Manager Bidwell and General
Freight Agent Kuhn, who went
there on Monday for this pur-
pose. Mr.. Bidwell on his re-
turn made the following state
ment:
"The Northwestern lines
west of the Missouri river will
ON and after March l be oper-
ated as the Nebraska and Wy
oming division of the Chicago
& Northwestern railway. The
Offices will remain in Omaha
and the business of the lines
will be conducted in all essen
tial particulars the same as
heretofore. think am safe
in saying that | shall remain in
charge as manager, Mr.. Kuhn
in charge of traffic and Mr..
Hughes in charge of operating.
Some details had not been fully
arranged at the time OF my last
advices and | am not in position
therefore, to say more at this
time"
NO MENTION OF BUCHANAN.
Thus the changes in the traf-
fic department are all arranged
and the new titles set. Mr..
Jones has been chief clerk in
the freight department, Mr..
Mum chief clerk in the pas
senger department. The cir
cular announcing the new ap-
pointments is issued by H. R.
Mccullough, third vice pres
ident of the Chicago & North
western railway and in charge
of traffic matters. No provision
is made for General Passenger
Agent Buchanan in this circu-
lar, both freight and passenger
jurisdiction being combined
under Mr.. Kuhn, who has been
general freight agent.
In the operating department
exact titles are not yet pub
lished. This department is in
direct charge of President
Marvin Hughitt, who has been
i'll for ten days, and has not yet
issued his circular on this mat
ter. Mr.. Bidwell's statement
conveys the general information
save as to the titles he and Mr..
Hughes will have. Mr.. Bidwel]
will probably be made an as
sistant to General Manager
Gardner and Mr.. Hughes divi-
sion superintendent in charge
of the Nebraska and Wyoming
division.

MILLER HOTEL is FLOODED
Sewer Clogs and Water Pours
into Hotel. Doing Consider
able DaRllQf,

During the heavy rain last
night, the entrance to the sew
er at the corner of Fifth and
Ontario streets became clogged
with refuse matter and instead
Of flowing into the railroad
sewer at that point, the water
continued to gather until it
overlooked the sidewalk and
was soon pouring intothe Miller
hotel dining room and office.
The thick, muddy water soon
covered the floors, causing con-
siderable damage to the carpets,
etc.

Wilkes-Barre journalist, and
the author of "The Parish
Priest a brilliant play in
which Daniel Sully is starring,
and Mr.. Callahan is credited
with writing Coon Hollow
and SFogg's Ferry" "Pennsyl-
wanna" contains the same witty
flow of language which charac
terizes Mr.. Harris other piece
and has, besides a bustling plot,
strong climaXes, and a scenic
thriller" in the explosion of a
mine from fire damp. In the
mine scene there is a real ele-
vator or cage, built by the
Reedy Elevator Company,
which the characters use to
make their entrances and exits,
real coal cars, etc.

kidney troubl.

Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their BEGIN
ming in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the extraordinary effect Of Or. Kilmers

soon realized. 1t stands the highest for its
wonderful cures Of the most distressing cases
