Constipation, Kidney Trouble.
Mrs. Mahala Reid, Corbyville, Ont,
Canada, writes:
"Your celebrated remedies have been
a wonderful boon to me in my old age.
I have not been in SO good health for
several years as now.
'I was troubled with constipation,
rheumatism and kidney trouble. A
little over two years ago completely
lost my health, becoming almost help
less, when dear friend sent me your
remedies, Peruna and Manalin.
81 began to take them, following the
directions on the bottles. I very soon
began to feel benefited by their use, and
continued to take them.
"I am now completely recovered from
the above ailments, in fact, better than
I have been for years past.
"I cannot praise the remedies too
highly and will always recommend
them to others"
Pe-ru-na In Tablet Form.
For two years DR.. Hartman and his
assistants have necessarily labored to
create Peruna in tablet form, and their
strenuous labors have just been crowned
with success. People who object to
LIQUID medicines can now secure Pc
runa tablets, which represent the
medicinal ingredients of Peruna. Each
tablet is equivalent to one average dose
of Peruna.

titled land contiguous to the city OF
Grants Pass which, together with our
mining and timber industries, yield
Ms an annual income Of 800, OOO.
And these resources have built Grants
Pass from a mountain hamlet to a city
of 5000 in q few years. He per-
tinently asked what would be the re-
suit in five years if the 100, 900 acres
OF uncleared land tributary TO the city
were pot under cultivation with an
annual income of 500 to $500 per
acre.
The suggestion is one worthy OF
consideration, and while the estimate
may seem large TO some it is con-
seryative to u degree and should en-
list the attention Of every resident OF
Grants Pass and Josephine county.
Think what the aggregate would mean
One hundred Thousand acres OF land
planted TO fruit at even 800 per acre
would add $4,000, 600 to the annual
income Of Grants Pass This would
soon mean population of 80. 900 peo.
pie for Grants Pass. The natural
effects Of such development would
bring the proposed electric and steam
roads, irrigation bitches, factories,
ETC., along with them in their regular
course.

NATIONAL FORESTS.

The first step toward carrying out
a comprehensive plan OF redistrictipg
the National Forests in western states
has Just been made by the president
in signing executive orders effective
July /, establishing the Cache and
Pooatello National Forests in northern
Utah and Southern Idaho. The object
Of this plan is to equalize areas OF
administrative units and re-arrange
the boundaries in such manner as TO
promote the most efficient admins
tation. No actual addition to the
National Forest area is involved in
the plan.
The Cache forest will consist Of the
Logan and Idaho divisions OF the
Bear River National Forest, and will
be administered by Supervisor Wood
rnff. with headquarters at Logan,
Utah. The Pocstello National For
est will consist OF the present Poca'
tello and Port Neuf National Forests,
together with the Malsd Division OF
the Bear River Forest. These areas
will be administered by Supervisor
wrensted, with headquarters at Po-
catello, Idaho.
Undsr the general plan Of redistrict'
ing i8 new administrative units will
be established from the existing
National Forest area. The attempt II
being made by the Forest Service Il
reduce the area Of theradministratiy'
units to an average Of approximately
1000. 900. acres This will on be pos
sible in all cases, as is shown by thu
fact that under the plan Of redistrict
ing there will be l44 supervisor
who will administer more than l6b,
600. 900 acres Of National Forest area.

A WONDERFUL FUTURE
FOR GRANTS PASS

In . recent interview with W. b.
Sherman relative to the future dovel.
opment Of Josephine county and =
greater population for Grants Pass,
Mr.. Sherman said. that while he full
ly apprecited the numerous advantages
of the proposed electric belt line from
here to Ashland, the steam road to
Waldo and through to the coast and
the irrigation projects suggested by
various people, and hoped that all
these snt,cipations might be fully
realized, yet he thought that the time
was premature for their acquisition,
and inasmuoh rs the Southern Pacific,
in his opinion was giving ample trans
portation. considering our present de-
velopments, and suggested the devlop'
ment Of those resources and possibilities
which now lie at our door, such as
the clearing Of land and tillage Of soil
now in practically is virgin stae aud
awaiting the clearing and planting to
make this section OF the Rogue River
valley a veritable garden. at the same
time the employment will be most re-
munerativs,. He was enthusiastic and
confident that tho electric roads and a
greatly Increased population would
follow. naturally the utilization of the
idle land now tributary to Grsnts Pass,
and that the convenienoes sought are
bound to come as u natural sequel tC
prudent industry.
Mr.. Sherman came here six year,
ago from Traverse City, Michigan, anC
has since been engage ed in the timber
and land business which has given him
an excellent opportunity to view tn,
country and carefully judge OF the soil
timber and fruit industries. He said
"what we want is the clearing o.
these lands and more people here Il
enjoy the products Of ,he soil thui
cleared; bigger city and more railroad
communication must OF necessity fol
low"
He says there are now 7 900 acres Of
