fairs OF the mint at this city has made

Sick kidneys weaken the body
through the continual drainage of life
giving albumen from the blood into
the urine, and the substitution of pois-
onous uric acid that goes broadcast
through the system, sowing the seeds
of disease. LOSS of albumen causes
weakness, languor. depression. Uric

back, gravel and kidney stones. The
proper treatment is a kidney treat
ment, and the best remedy is Doan's
Kidney Pills.
William Gerlach, living at Ill s.
Fourth street, Victor. Colo, says:
For five or six years I was subject
to spells of backache. Sitting still
and working steady in a stopped po-
sition no doubt was the cause. On
many occasions I could scarcely
straighten on account of the aching
and lameness across my loins. Diff
Guilty existed with the kidney secre-
tions as was shown by their unnatural
color, often being riley and causing
a great deal of brick dust sediment.
An advertisement of oDan's Kidney
Pills came to my notice and so con-
vincing were the claims made for this
medicine that I was led to get box
at the drug store. Their use brought
genuine results. My back and kid
neys were strengthened, the aching
and lameness entirely disappeared.
and the secretionss became clear and
were devoid of sediment The cure
affected was not only complete, but

has remained permanent I can con-

THE CATTLE MARKET
DEPENDS ON HOGS

The Colorado Agricultural College
would urge all cattle growers of the
state to raise hogs and to induce their
neighbor farmers who are not cattle
growers. to make hog raising promi-
nent feature of their work, in order to
secure a good market for the cattle.
There are few lines of farming in
Colorado that pay as we'll for capital
invested, and for labor required, as
raising and fattening hogs, and the
business gives quick returns. Less
than one and one-half per cent. Of
the hogs needed by the Denver mar
ket alone are fattened in Colorado,
while only a small portion of the cat
tie raised in the state can be handled
by our packing houses. If Colorado
farmers would raise enough hogs to
supply the full demand of our market
100000 head month through the
year, then our packing houses would
need for slaughter all the cattle that
Colorado could raise and fatten.
The hog is the market builder of the
meat trade, as we'll as the money
maker for the farmer. Pork is the
foundation upon which packing
center is built The fresh meat trade
Is profitable, but the trade is limited,
the permanent footing of the packing
house industry and its expansion de-
pending upon the amount of pork
that can be secured for an all year
business.
The sailing, curing, and smoking OF
the meat and the rendering, packing
and dispcsing of the lard and OF
other pork products, gives regular en-
ployment to packing house forces.
Colorado for years has been one of
the most important states in raising
cattle for feeders in the corn belt to
fatten. We have the feed to fatten
every beef animal grown in the state,
and our feed will produce a flavor
in beef as much superior to that from
corn feeding as Colorado fed mutton
ranks above that from all other
sources
Every Colorado stockman knows
how advantageous it would be to have
all our cattle fed, fattened, and
slaughtered within the state, with a
great packing center developed at
home.
Let the cattle growers raise the
hogs needed to supply in full the de-
mands of our home packing centers,
for in SO doing, they will also provide
a good market within the state for
all the cattle they can put on the
market.

Presidsnt's PROCLAMATION Calls
Upon Nation to Give Thanks
for Blessings Vovchsafed
During Year.

Washington, Oct. 26.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today issued his
Thanksgiving proclamation, nam
ing November 28th, the last Thurs
day in the month, as a day of
thanksgiving and prayer. The
thanksgiving proclamation fol-
lows:
Once again the season of the
year has come when in accordance
with the custom Of our forefathers
for generations past, the president
appoints the day as the especial
occasion for all our people to give
praise and thanksgiving to God.
During the past year we have
been free from famine, from pesti-
lence, from war; we are at peace
with all the rest Of mankind. Our

great as those of any other nation.
We believe that, in ability to de-
velop and take advantage of these
resources, the average man of this
nation stands at least as high as
the average man of any other.
Nowhere else in the world is there
such an opportunity tor a free peo-
pie to develop to the fullest extent
all its powers of body, Of mind and
of that which stands above both
body and mind-character.
Much has been given us from
on high, and much will rightly be
expected of us in turn. Into our
care the Ten Commandments are
entrusted, and we are to be par
doned neither if we squander and
waste them, nor yet if we hide

them in a napkin, for they must be
fruitful in our hands. Ever
throughout the ages, at all times
and among all peoples, prosperity
has been fraught with danger,
and it behooves us to beseech the
Giver OF all things that we nay not
fall into the love Of ease and lux
ury; that we may not lose our sense
OF moral responsibility, that we
may not forget u duty to God and
to our neighbor.
"A great democracy like ours, a
democracy based upon the princi-
pies OF orderly liberty, can be per-
petuated only if iii the heart of the
ordinary citizen there dwells a keen
sense OF righteousness and Justice,
which should grow ever greater in
the hearts of all of us, that all our
souls may be inclined ever more
both toward the virtues that tell for
gentleness and tenderness, for low
ing kindness and forbearance one
with another and toward those no
less necessary virtues that make
for manlinesS and rugged hardi-
hood-for without these qualities
no nation or individual can rise to
the level of greatness. Nov there
FORE Theodore Roosevelt, presi-
dent OF the United States, do set
apart Thursday, the twenty-eighth
day of November as a day for
general thanksgiving and prayer,
and on that day | recommend that
the people shall cease from their
daily work, and in their homes or
in their churches meet devoutly to
thank the Almighty for the many
and great blessings they have re-
ceived in the past, and to pray
that they may be given the strength
so to order their lives as to deserve
a continuation Of these blessings
in the future"
