learn that there is at least one dreaded dis
ease that science has been able to cure in all
its stages and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being constitu-
t1onal disease, requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing it's work.

We believe it would be a good
deal better plan for the San Luis
valley pea feeders to cut and stack
their vines instead of turning the
sheep in upon them as is the COM
mon custom. In this event the
peas should be cut before the
frost catches them. They will
mature better in stack than when
left standing to freeze. The peas
wither and lose much of their
value, when they are allowed to
fall onto the ground to absorb al
kali. AS usual thing fourteen
