At times when you don't feel just
right. when you have a bad stomach.
take something right away that will as
sist digestion; not something that will
stimulate for a time, but something that
will positively do the very work that the
stomach will do under ordinary and nor
NAL conditions, something that will make
the food digest. To do this you must
take a natural digestant like Kodol For
Dyspepsia. Kodol is a SEMITIC prepare
ton of vegetable acids with natural
digestants and contains the same juices
found in a healthy stomach. Each dose
will digest more than 5000 grains OF
good food. 1t is sure to afford prompt

pleasant to take. Sold by w. A. Fer

Portland Cement Production.

The Portland cement producers of
the United States have replied so
promptly to the statistical inquiries
addressed to them by the United
States Geological Survey that it is
now possible TO make a very close esti-
mate of the Portland cement produc-
tion for the calendar year 1907. Mr..
Edwin c. Eckel who is in charge of
the statistical work on cement for the
Survey, has accordingly prepared the
following statement:
Returns have been received from
eighty yseyen plants, representing over
% per cent of the Portland cement pro
duction of the United States. AS the
ten plants which have not yet replied
include only two large producers it is
possible to make fairly accurate esti-
mate of the total cement production
of 1907. The returns so far received
indicate that the total output of Port
land cement in the United States dur
ing the calendar year 1907 was approx
imately AS 600 zoe barrels. This should
be compared with an output of &C.
4G3.i24 barrels in 1906, and of 35,24G,-
Sl2 barrels in 1905.
Though the production of 1907 shows
an increase over that of 1906. it is
slight as compared with past annual
gains in the cement industry. indicat-
ing tnat the Portland cement produc-
tion of the United States has now
reached stage in its development
where it is directly and promptly af
fected by general business depression
An official statement that the ce-
ment required for the Panama Canal
would be only 4.500.000 barrels has
served to put at rest exaggerated ideas
concerning the Importance of this
work to the cement trade The fur
ther statements that bids would be
asked for delivery of clinker on the
isthmus, and that the government
might possibly erect its own cement
plant there, are also of interest to ex-
listing American plants.

tor is required to notify the company.

Lawful to Tax Claims.

Colorado or any other state has the
right to collect taxes on unpatented
mining claims. After being disputed
in every state of the West, this uues-
tion has at last been settled by de-
cision of the United States Supreme
Court, received at the Office of the
United States district attorney in Den
yer.
The decision also authorizes a state
to seize an unpatented claim, and, in
order to give il a tax title, to sell il to
the highest bidder. 1t is said that more
than 100 controversies over the taxa
tion of unpatented mining claims are
now pending in the courts
The district attorneys Office inter
prets the decision as also affecting
titles to homesteads and desert claims
or any other form of claims.
The decision is the result of a suit
for the possession of one of the most
valuable claims on the Comstock lode
in the Leadville district. Mining ex-
perts claim that millions in gold ore
are b&ried in the claim. The suit was
entered by George Elder, Samuel Nc
MILAN, Alice J. McCombe, administra-
trix and John McCombe. and others
against Tingley S. Wood, Mary NJ. Bull
lard, Anna l.. Finerty and Cecilia l..
Wahrer.
Before the famous claim had been
patented Wood bought a tax title from
the state. The property had been in
herited by Wilhelmina GUIDE. She
failed to pay taxes, because she did
not believe it necessary until the claim
had been properly patented. When the
state sold her claim George R. Elder
Immediately bought a quitclaim from
Mrs. GUIDE. The result was a long con
troversy which began in the District
Court at Leadville. and was fought
inch by inch until 1t had passed from
the Colorado Supreme Court into the
hands of the United States Supreme
Court
