Some SeasonabIe Advice.

1t may be a piece of superf1ous ad
vice to urge people at this season OF
the year to lay in a supply of Cham
b~erlain's Cough Remedy. 1t is almost
sure to be needed before winter is
over, and much more prompt and sat
i~sfactory results are obtained when
taken as 70 as a colo is contracted
and before it has become settled in
the system, which can only be done
by keeping the remedy at hand. This
is so widely known and so
altogether good that no one should
hesitate about buying it in perfer-
to n other. It is for sale by
all dealers.

A Judicious Inquiry.

A well known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has of
ten heard druggists inquire of GUS
toners who asked for a cough medi-
cine, whether it was wanted for a
child or o an adult. and IL for a
child they almost invariably recon-
mend Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
The reason for this is that they nov
there is no danger from it and that
it always cures. There is not the least
danger in giving it, and for coughs,
colds and Group it is unsurpassed. For

1t is at times difficult to separate
actual facts from glowing descrip-
lions of the wonders of the Pecos Val
ley in this Territory and to give real
results in dollars in cents. But r. F.
Barnett, who owns a &c acre orchard
that he planted / ears ago, gives
the figures of net profits he has thus
far made from his venture. When the
orchard was five years old it yielded
a net profit of $500; the sixth year it
yielded $1,000; in the seventh year
$4,000; in the eighth year 81, 800; and
the present veal $2,875. These pro-
fits will continue to increase annual
ly as apple orchards are long lived.
In other words, the man who plants
thirty acres of apple trees will be as
sured a competency within six years,
not only in the Pecos Valley but in
the Santa Fe, the Tesuque and other
apple growing valleys of the Terri
tory. An apple orchard is better than

IRRIGATION AS OLD AS TIME.

The reclamation of arid lands is
nothing new under the sun. In the
Old Testament of the venerable book
called the Bible, there are expressions
like these:
Thus saith the Lord, make this
valley full of ditches......Ye shall
not see wind, neither shall We see
rain; yet that valley shall be filled
with water. that We may drink, both
you and your cattle and you beasts
II Kings, 3:16-17.
An the parched ground shall be-
come a pool, and the thirty LAND
springs of water; in the habitation of
dragons, where each lay. shall be
grass with reeds and rushes."-Isaiah
25:7.
THE wilderness and the solitary
place shall be glad for them and the
desert shall rejoice, and blossom as
the rose."-Isaiah 25:1.

ter with this country is the growing
tendency to look down on the man
who works with his hands, or, the
woman who works with her hands.
The tendency is devilish and dan
gerous.
Let us learn again that the hands
that are SCARED by honest toll bear
wounds as honorable al those re
ceived in battle.
Let us learn again that the doctrine
of the dignity of labor is fundamental
to the Republic.

two-who loved each other for what
they were and paid no attention TO
the accidents of fortune.

HIRED GIRL, HIRED MAN.

From Memphis News-Scimitar.
Considerable fuss is being made be-
cause an eastern millionaire has
stopped" to marry a hired girl liv-
ing in Iowa
Why?
The girl must have graces and per-
sonal points or the millionaire would
not have chosen her. And it is safe
to say morally she is his equal, If
not superior.
They were on a level, u, if any
thing, the hired girl was just a little
above the millionaire.
All of us in America who amount
to anything are hired people.
No doubt the millionaire is a hired
man in charge Of some big corpora
ton.
Roosevelt is a hired man.

(By William R. Draper.)

A party of men from the East were
ped train racing southwark across
the wide stretch of ranch lands of
the Panhandle OF Texas. For ten
hours we gazed u over this vast
expanse of country; on every side
it was evident that the cattle business
was the chief industry. Toward IN
down we crossed the Pecos river
and passed int a modern Garden of
Eden. Trees took the place of sage
brush. Alfalfa grew instead of buffa-
10 grass; beautiful farm houses sup
planted the shacks on the ranches.

We had arrived at Roswell, a mod

to the Pecos Valley. For six years
/ have visited various sections of the
Southwest to investigate the natural
resources and this is certainly one
of the finest pieces of handiwork in
the worlds creation. Especially is
this true as it pertains to climate
and general agricultural conditions.
The Pecos Valley is worthy of Sc
rious consideration from n man
who wishes to better his conditions
and find real pleasure in life. In the
Valley people live and enjoy every
day of the year.
