PLANT MILLION TREES

Spokane, Oct. 11-More than L.
100000 fruit trees will be planted
in the Yakima valley this fall and
next spring, according to estimates
made by expert horticulturists. In
GLIDING the trees planted during the
season just closed this will give the
valley 5,399,400 trees, of which up
ward Of 100000 were set out this
year. F. A. Huntley, state commits
sioner of horticulture, shows in his
report that Yakima county had
1885, 692 apple trees, 776,6O0 peach
trees, 571,SS2 pear trees, 1906
cherry trees and 27,262 plum and
prune trees, or 3.399,402 of a total of
11,212,511 trees reported in the state
at the close of 1908. The shipments
of fruit amounted to more than 900
cars this year and it is expected that
the trees coming into bearing in 1910
will yield 1000 cars, and growers
look for an equal number to come
into bearing yearly thereafter for
from 10 to Is years, until the total
yield is almost beyond computation.

A STARTLING STATEMENT
New York Medical Authorities Claim
Dyspepsia Causes Consumption

The post mOrtem statistics of the big
New York hospitals shows that some
cases OF consumption are due to IN
checked dyspepsia, especially when the
victim was predisposed to tuberculosis.
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
brain, the weakened, irritable stomach
is unable TO digest food, the bo0y does
not receive the required nouirshment,
constipation ensues and the victim be-
comes thin, weak and hsggard. As a
result, the body becomes a fertile field
for the germs of disease to lodge and
flourish
Therefore, the person who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhindered is
guilty of contributing toward the de-
velOpment of one of the most insidious
and fatal diseases known to mankind
Dyspepsia is durable if properly treat
ed. A. j. Johnson sells a remedy which
he positively guarantees will cure indi-
gestlon or dyspepsia or he will pay for
all the medicine used during the trial.
ms remedy is an absolutely new medi-
cal discovery and has been named Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets. Certainly no offer
could be more fair, and the offer of A.
j. Johnson IS proof positive that Rexall
pysnepsla Tablets are a dependable
and infaihble remedy. Inasmuch as the
medicine will cost you nothing if it does
not benefit you we urge you who are
suffering with Indigestion or dyspepsia
to try this remedy. A twenty-five cent
box of Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets con-
tains enough medicine for fifteen DAYS
treatment. Remember Rexall Dvs-
pepsia Tablets are only sold in Viroqua
by A. j. johnson Druggist.
