Field and Farn-The old saving.
Ii is darkest Est befoie dawn is
calculated to convey the impression
that things always look their worst
just before a change fer the better is
made. We are now leaning on the
wisdom Of this old saw in our antici-
patton of the future in the cattle sit
uation. We know that cattle prices
cannot get lower than they now are.
so the dawn must be about here.
Whenever any class Of property has
failed to make its owner a fair pro-
ht for a number Of years it is natural
that few people care TO inves: in it.
This one thing, probably. more than
any other is holding back thousands
Of alfalfa farmers from buvine cattle
right now. They have roughness in
plenty and some to spare 10 keep
over the winter a. many cattle as the
ranch will carry yet there is hesita-
tion about stocking up with the
light weight good grass stuff to be
seen any day in the Denver yards.
Some Of these people entertain a fear
that the cattle might be kept over
winter and another summer. then
sold year from now for no more
than they would cost today. as h.s
been the case in many instances dur
ing the last three or four years. Bat
the worst must be over. the low tide

its use as an anaesthetic in dentistry.

light was very soothing. The some

three minutes, caused him to lose
sensitiveness to such an extent that
q tooth was painlessly extracted, with,

the anaesthetic was general OF only
local is not reported.

Quite a large portion OF the book Is
devoted to testimonials from physi-
clans and various others relating to
the efficacy of the blue-ray treatment
in cases of general i'll health, rheuma-

the results claimed by him were due
to the "juxtaposition of plain uncol-

blue light of the armament ard tue
