The members present signed up 202 acres to the association and it is expected about 15O acres more will be signed. But 200 acres is enough to make a good healthy working associa- tion even if no more is secured.
 Without limiting that any of the as- sociations are lacking in soil or any other desirable feature for the success of the business. it may be truthfully said that the Glendale people believe they have the best melon country on earth.

A CONSTANT ANNOYANCE

Half sthe nervousness, half the irri- liability that is so common in every day life, is really sickness, and in most cases a condition that accompanies kidney trouble.
 It is the work of the kidneys to keep the blood free from uric acid and other poisons, but when the kidneys are sick and not doing their duty, the uric acid poison permeates the body and attacks body. brain and nerves. The irrita- ton causes nervousness, irritability, headNche. dizzy spells; makes you lan- guid, unfit for work and inclined to worry over trifles. Besides. there is nothing more annoying than a bad back, and baclIache is the most com mon sign of kidney trouble. You feel lame and tired in the morning. suffer day and night with a dull aching in the back, and it hurts to stoop or bend or lift.
 Keep your temper cool and get the kidneys well. No person can feel cheerful and healthy if the kidneys are the least bit affected. A few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills, taken in the be- ginning. will set the kidneys right.
 Continued treatment cures cases of long standing.
 Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid neys only. and contain no poisonous nor habit-forming drugs. They relieve congestion and inflammation of the kidneys or bladder heal and cure the kidney tissues, drive off dangerous uric poisons, dissolve and remove gravel.

It is needless to say that have on every occasion acknowledged the genuineness of it, and in conse- quence others have been induced to try Doan's Kidney Pills, and have their word that the results obtained were most satisfactory. My original state ment was to the effect that Doan's Kidney Pills had cured me of kidney complaint from which I had been sufferer for five or six years When ever l caught a cold it settled in my kidneys and caused my back to be very painful and to the extent that I could neither sit. stand or lie down without suffering. I had to be con- stantly shifting from one position to another. When having a severe attack I learned about Doan's Kidney Fills I used three boxes and the results could hardly have been moe satisfactory. The pain and lameness left me entire ly. and from that time on I have never had return of the annOyances, all though five years have elapsed since I was cured 1"
