When you think of Indigestion
think of Kodol, for it is without
doubt the only preparation that
completely digests all classes
of food. And that is what you
need when you have indigestion
or stomach trouble-something
that will act promptly but tho
roughly; something that will
get right at the trouble and do
the very work itself for the
stomach by digesting the food
that you eat and that is Kodol.
1t is pleasant to take.

Snow Storm

A violent wind storm accom-
panied by rain and snow ragged
all day Sunday last from far over
in New Mexico as far west as
Needles, Cal. At Winslow the
wind blew all day Saturday
reaching it's highest velocity
along towards midnight. Early
Sunday morning rain began fall
ing, but was of short duration.
West ofhere snow became general
from Flagstaff as far west as the
local offices get reports. 1t was
reported that snow fell as far
west as Peach Springs Ariz., and
that the wind and rain storm
had invaded the sacred precincts
of Needles. At Flagstaff the re-
port said there was two feet of
snow and at 8 O'Clock Sunday it
was still showing. The reports
Monday indicated that snow had
fallen all day Sunday between
Flagstaff and Seligman, various
depths being reported. Between
Flagstaff and Williams the snow
was a foot deep on the level,
while the extreme high wind was
causing bad drifts. At Williams
thirteen inches of snow had fall
en- previous to 8 O'Clock Monday
morning, after which time the
fall was light. From Ash Fork
to Seligman the snow fall was
light, but the extreme high winds
prevailed all the way from Nee
dies we'll over into New Mexico.
From Winslow east there was
very little snow reported along
the line OF the railroad, but heavy
rains were general between here
and Albuquerque. The Santa Fe
trains suffered no delay on ac-
count of the storm, everything
running on time and with but
little inconvenience. Unexpected
that the loss among cattle and
sheep will be rather heavy on ac-
count of the storm but just what
may be looked for in this line will
not be known tor some time.

The Clovis Boom

Mr.. w. H. Moody, the Clovis
real estate man, has been in the
city for several days in the inter
ests of the new Santa Fe town
site.
Practically every new town
along the line of the Santa Fe in
the west has had it's boom at
one time or another, and not a
few investors throughout the
country have been made victims
of the townsite scheme.
However, that element of un-
certainty is lacking in the Clovis
boom. The Santa Fe is spending
nearly a quarter of a million in
substantial improvements and it
is their intention to make Clovis
the largest division point in the
southwest.
The new Harvey Hotel, now
under construction, will be one
of the largest on the entire sys-
tenn and there are number of
substantial business blocks be-
ing built, adjoining the townsite.
The country for miles around
Clovis is considered the best
farming and stock raising land
in the territory and the discov-
cry of artesian water at Clovis
caused considerable interest
throughout the entire south
west.
Quite a number of prominent
businessmen in Winslow have
purchased lots in the residence
section of Clovis, with the 1nten-
ton of holding them for invest
ments. They are adjoining the
business section and within easy
walking distance of the depot.
The fact that the largest pur-
chasers of these lots are railroad
men who have been over the
ground personally, and it is GER
tainly an attractive proposition
for the small investor.
Mr.. Moody has a book of
views, showing the construction
work now in operation at Clio
Wis, and will be pleased to show
them to anyone. He is located
at the Navajo and will remain
here until the Goth, when he will
leave for the east.
