Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription
stands alone, as the one and only remedy
for leucorrhea, female weakness, pro-
1apsus, or falling of the womb so abso-
lutely specific and sure in curing these
common ailments of women, as to war
rant its makers in offering to pay, as
they hereby 10, the sum of $500 reward
for a case of the above maladies which
they can not cure. This is remarkable
offer. No other medicine for the cure
of woman's peculiar ailments is backed
by such a remarkable guarantee. No
other medicine for woman's ills is pos
sessed of the unparalleled curative pro-
perties that would warrant its makers
in publishing such an offer; no other REM

century of cures on which to base such
q remarkable offer.

When the strikers returned to
work they signed an agreement to

weekly, to allow all automatic
looms, running at II o'clock, with
full batteries-the engines run

and to abide by changes in wages
to conform with changes made
by the Cotton Manufacturers
Association. Owing to the fact
that several weavers struck work

price.
Some of the owners of FIVE
ACRE TRACTS are now getting as
much as $500 each year from
the sale of the products of their
farms. Last year TEN ACRES of
this land sold for $1,000, the same
tract having been sold for s. 900
in 1901.
The success of the first ditch
was so pronounced that another
and larger irrigation system cost
ing $4,000 was constructed to re-
claim the balance of the tract. 1t
has practically all been sold at
from $3.50 to $500 per acre since
the ditch was finished. AS an
illustration of what water will do
on Montana land this is probably
as good an example as can be
furnished.
In 1900 there were but four
farms of 2,I85 acres. To-day
there are 400 families living in
prosperity and content and deriv-
ing comfortable living from the
cultivation of tracts which in
other sections of the country
would not be considered as fair
sized gardens.-Butte Mont. J

productive garden, another a good
stand of alfalfa-only five acres
of it--and so on. The story is
one of intensified and diversified
farming.
Soon we shall find the entire
West taking up the idea, and
with irrigation it will be not only
practicable, but highly profitable.
The exhaustion of our non-arid
public domain compels the settle
ment of the remaining portion,
and there must be irrigation be-
fore there can be successful settle
ment. At the same time irriga-
ton makes intensified farming
profitable, for under irrigation
there is often more productiveness
in forty acres than there is in a
whole section where the farmer
must depend upon the weather
and stand total or partial crop
losses two years in FIVE.
If there is a tendency to inten-
sive farming where there is no ir-
rigation it is safe to predict that
not many years will elapse before
the range country is broken up
into irrigated farms of compare
lively few acres each wherever
irrigation is possible, and Congress
can hasten the day by turning
a deaf ear to the cattle kings and
timber barons and legislating in
the interests of the plain people
who are anxious to make homes
for themselves.
Congress has fought shy of the
question of preserving the remain
ing fragment of public domain for
the people, but public opinion
will surely force a repeal of the
laws making monopoly possible
and small individual proprietor

public land has been given to the

A special to the Boston Trans
cript from Fall River, under date
of July 1st, says the Bourne Mills
are paying their thirtieth semi
annual dividend to their employees
to-day, who are entitled to a dis
tribution under the profit-sharing
plan in use by the corporation.
A circular signed by George A.
Chace, treasurer, is enclosed in
each envelope. The circular says
in part: "It is with usual pleas

that proft-sharing will be con-

turned out to be an advantage.

RESULTS OF IRRIGATION.
What Can be Done on Five-Acre Tracts
of Land in Montana.

Here is a brief description OF
the benefits from irrigation in
Montana. 1t was furnished to the
officials in Washington by a
citizen of the State, and the
scene of the operation is near
Missoula. The facts are familiar
to people interested in that sec
ton of the State, and the realty
agents in Butte and elsewhere
are urgent in invitation to invest
ors to visit the Bitter Root Valley
and learn from the practical OBJ
ject lessons:
In 1900 tract of land contain
ing 3,IS5 acres was purchased,
upon which at that time four
families were residing and hav-
ing a hard struggle to make a
living. An irrigation system
costing about $1,000 was construct
ed, the laterals covering about 4So
acres. AS soon as the water was
turned in the ditch this land was
put on the market at $500 per
acre, on five years time, the pur-
chaser paying 10 per cent. of the
purchase price down, and the bal
ance in 60 equal monthly pay
ments. There was no difficulty
in disposing of the land at this

Corn Stalk Disease.

Farmers will soon commence turn
ing cattle into the stalk fields and If
proper precautions are not observed
there will likely be some reports of
corn stalk disease. Not that all deaths
from the pasturing of corn stalks are
due to lack of care on the part of the
caretaker of cattle, but we believe by
far the greater part of them are. From
some quarters an unusual development
Of corn smut is reported and some

fearful that this forbodes greater tlls-
aster from the corn stalk disease as

Cattle grazing ON stalk fields should
