At times when you don't feel jus

At times when you don't feel just
right, when you have bad stomach,
take something right away that will
assist digestion; not something that
will stimulate for a time but some
thing that will positively do the very
work that the stomach performs un-
der ordinary and normal conditions
that will make the food digest. TO do
this you must take a natural diges-
tant like Kodol for Dyspepsia. Kodol
is "a scientific preparation of vegeta-
BILE acids with natural digestants and
contains the same juices found in
healthy stomach. Each dose will di-
gest more than 5000 grains of good
food. 1t is sure to afford prompt
relief; it digests what you eat and Is

IS ATTRACTING

Fruit Growers of Valley investigating Smudge Fuel That
Has Proven so Successful in California
Cost Extremely Low

What promises to prove great
boon TO the fruit growers of the
/ Grand valley is just now being in
troduced here, and those who have
made Investigations of the PROPOSE
tion are highly pleased and most ia
vorably impressed.
The question of what smudge pot
will prove the cheapest. yet give the
best service. has been threshed out
for months in the valley, and now
the growers are beginning to think
of the fuel proposition and are en-
deavoring to ascertain the most eco
nomical plan to follow in regard to
fuel for the pots.
Charles a. KitZmiller and other
well known local citizens have made
arrangements to give the fruit grow
ers of this valley an opportunity to
use the smudge pot fuel that has
created such Il sensation in southern
California during the past few years
and which is being used successfully
by many of the greatest fruit grow
ing concerns of California each sea
son.
This is the famous Griflths' heat
and orchard fuel, patented some time
ago, and pronounced by experts in
many fruit growing states as a great
success. AS kilograms given below
show. the Arlington Heights Fruit
Company of Riverside. Cal, which
company has over 5000 acres in
growing orchards, use this Grifliths'
fuel with great success.
1t is declared that this fuel. when
properly adjusted in a smudge pot
will burn EIGHT HOURS WITHOUT
HAVING TO REFILL OR RELIGHT.
This. as all growers will realize. is
a great advantage, AGAIN, THE
FUEL MAY BE USED IN ANY
MAKE OF SMUDGE POT; it does
not require any one kind of pot
1t burns successfully in all kinds.
The heating qualities of the fuel are
said to be marvellous
II is said that the local men in
charge of the fuel for this district
win be able to guarantee to our
growers that the fuel will not cost
to exceed 81 per acre per night;
therefore, the cheapness and econ
omy OF using the Grifiiths' fuel is
most apparent.
All fruit growers who expect to
prepare to smudge next spring
should investigate this new fuel.
Demonstrations win be given with
out any costs whatever. All that is
necessary Is to see or get in COM
