THIS IS SAID
TO HELP MANY

Get from any prescription phar-
macist the following:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon one ounce:
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Shake we'll in a bottle and take a
teaspoonful dose after each meal and
at bedtime.
The above is considered by an emf
nent authority, who writes in New
York daily paper, as the finest pre-
scription ever written to relieve
Backaehe. Kidney Trouble. Weak
Bladder and all forms of Urinary
difficulties. This mixture acts
promptly on the eliminative tissues
of the Kidneys, enabling them to fill
ter and strain the uric acid and other
waste matter from the blood which
causes Rheumatism.
Some persons who suffer with the
Affections may not feel inclined TO
place much confidence in this simple
mixture. yet those who have tried it
say the results are simply surprising,
the relief being effected without the
slightest injury TO the stomach or
other organs
Mix some and give it trial. II
certainly comes highly recommended.
1t is the prescription of an eminent
authority. whose entire reputation, 1t
is said, was established by it.
A druggist here at home when
asked stated that he could either
supply the ingredients or mix the
prescription for our readers, also rec
ommends ii as harmless.

r,o,res indicate that there

Figures indicate that there are
very few hops in consumers hands
in the United States. The last three
years production, plus stocks on
hand September /, 1907, and plus
! last two years imports, less the ex-
ports and two years United States
consumption, leaves 207.O00 bales.
The available stocks in Great Brit
ain are around 100000 cwts. This
does not include stocks on hand Sep
TENDER I 1905. These. were very
small, in fact. nearly nothing by all
reports at the time, and also proved
by the fact that the English trade
has been paving up to 50 cents over
here for hops to exc out their sup
ply.
With total stocks on hand of $780,
000 cwts. Great Britain must buy
$4,000 bales of hops to make her
years requirements good. But the
brewers will not dare go into 1903
with less than a 90 days supply. This
will be 10000 bales more. So that
we can safely say Great Britain must
and will import 225,000 bales of
hops during the next 9 months. Her
brewers can afford to wait five or
six months before buying, but buy
they must before the 1908 crop can
be harvested.
protect themselves. Dealers will
make all sorts of representations and
arguments to the growers to prevent
them joining the Hop Growers un-
ion. 1t will only be necessary for
growers to remember that dealers are
fighting to retain business worth
annually $450,000, with the privi-
lege of mulcting growers occasionally
to the extent of some three millions
of dollars, as is going on now. With
a knowledge of all these facts, if a
grower listens to a dealer and lets
him persuade him not to join the
union, such a grower is weakling
with not manhood or courage enough
to stand up with his brother hop
growers and fight to free themselves
from this annual tribute of millions
we are paying other people to do
our business for us.
How can a hop grower having a
family at home look his wife and
children in the face and know that
he is allowing them to be robbed of
the advantages, comforts and neces-
itsies which he has worked hard to
give them, and yet which he allows
set of dealers TO mulct him Of
merely because he has not the STAN
ina, the backbone, the manhood to
unite with other hop growers and
| fight for that which by right belongs
to his wife and children.

The proposition is to organize hop
growers of the Pacific coast into Il
union. with the following principal
ends in view:
1. To secure the cooperation OF
Pacific coast hop growers in doing
any and all things which will bene-
fiji the industry
,. To finance all hop growers, so
that they will be able to grow, har-

3. TO annually export the sur

4. To handle the entire Pacific
coast crop as unit, and thus secure
to hop growers an average OF AT least
90 cents per pound for his hops.
These three LIST provisions will do
all that is needed TO convert hop
growing into the most lucrative pur-

SHAW GETS ANOTHER OFFER
Can Become President of Bank IN
Omaha, Nebraska.
Secretary OF Treasury Says He Has
in Business and Has No Plans.

According TO a report received in Wash
ington last night. Secretary Of the
Treasury Shaw has still another offer
awaiting him when he retires from the
Cabinet on March l.
The last place 10 be offered him is the
presidency Of bank in Omaha. The re-
port received in Washington was TO the
effect that the bankers there were giving
much credence TO the story and expect
the Secretary TO return 10 Omaha when
ne lets loose Of the reins over the gov
eminent Treasury.
The story was called 10 the attention
Of Nr Shaw. who declined 70 make any
statement concerning his plans for the
future. saying he has made none. Il
has been reported that he would settle
in New York Seattle. and other places,
but so far II seems none Of the offers
have been accepted.
Il is known that Mr.. Shaw has been
told by six OF seven persons 20 make no
business plans for the future without
consulting them.
What effect Mr.. Shaw's removal from
Iowa would have on his well-knOwn pO-
litical ambition is a matter OF speculation,
and the theory has been advanced that in
the present state Of Iowa politics, the
secretary might be disappointed in any
hope he may have of capturing that
States delegation 10 the Republican ma
tional convention in 1903.
Whether this condition Of politics will
have any effect upon Mr.. Shaw's choice
Of a residence or place OF business IS not
known.
