Your Druggist Says
Ask Your Druggist

The great army of American druggists are mighty intelligent and well-educated men. They know the properties of drugs and med'- cnes and have experience with all kinds ot troubles which people come into the store to ask relief for. So their practical knowledge is very valuable and their advice is worth great deal to all sick people :. If you know your druggist well enough to ASK his advice for your female trouble, do so and ne VIII tell you that thousands of women have written letters telling of relief obtained from taking Cardui. In his experience. he has heard and read ot many cases of female weakness which have been re- lieved or cured by Cardui. So, when you ask his opinion, he will not offer prescription, but VIII probably say: "7ake CaydMi" And you will do well to follow his advice.
 Cardui is advised in ali the common forms of Womany trouble due to disorders peculiar to females. It has been found to relieve or prevent head- ache backache side ache, dragging sensations, nerV- ousness, irritabty, ireguarity, and general female weakness and misery.
 Many thousands of sick ladies have been ies stored to health by the use of CaTdul, and have written to tell of the good it did them. Cardu is composed of pure, vegetable ingred- ients-hence has no harmful effects, like many mineral compounds It acts gently and naturally, is good tor young and old and should be in every ladys home, even if not an invalid to take during her bad days.

JACKSON, Miss, April 2U.-Folly
five hundred delegates, representing
practically every county in the state
have assembled in Jackson for the
annual convention of the Mississippi

All of the night and early morning

There is not a single kind of animal
food which we might not replace with
a vegetable counterpart. In most cases
it is merely matter of choice which is
preferable, the animal or the vegetable.
In the matter of cooking fats, however,
the vegetable has far the advantage.
Lard is made from the fat of hogs
often impure and unclean, always indi-
gestible. Cottolene comes from the cot
ton fields of the Sunny South. 1t makes
food that can be digested with ease,
even by invalids. Cottolene is recon-
mended by both physicians and noted
cooking experts as a much more health
full and desirable cooking fat than lard.

some quarters, the lumber business
seems to be holding its own taken as
a whole The thing of greatest mo-
ment Just now is the question of sup
ply and demand in the yellow pine
field, and the recently issued report
of cut and shipments of 166 of the
mills confirms a conclusion arrived
at by the manufacturers at their re-
cent meeting in Chicago and concurred
in by producers throughout the coun--
try, that too much lumber has been
made since the first of the year. AS
suggested by one large manufacturer,
only when the price of yellow pine
gets down to point where the pro-
Queer can lose less by operating than
by shutting down, can he be expected
to close his plant and cease operating
That condition of prices almost pre-
Sails and it is doubtful if the mills
could show a profit on some of the
business they have been handling
lately. This, however. is having it's
moral effect, since the very apparent
showing of overproducton. coupled
with a sharp decline in demand from
certain sources and made more i'm
pressive by the instability of values,
has led to a decrease in production
not through shutdown to any extent,
but by shortening shifts, elimination of
night running, etc. The effect is not
apparent as yet, and, considering the
accumulation of common lumber at
the mills, need not be expected immed-
lately.
Fortunately the demand for lower
grades is holding up fairly we'll, al
though it is not the sort of a demand
which has a lettering effect upon
prices. The surplus at the mills will
be cleaned up however, in reasonable
time, if it is not augmented by the
manufacturers. AS the season ad-
vances, the retail trade will take care
OF large portion of it, and from some
quarters it is reported that the rail-
roads are taking advantage of abnorm-
ally low prices to pick up some need
ed stock. Opinions among manufac-
turers themselves differ as widely as
their possible viewpoints Some are
inclined to be pessimistic over the
fact that only a readjustment of the
business so that production could be
regulated by the mills would restore
values to a profitable basis. Others
are inclined to believe that the right
ing of general business conditions will
take place Immediately upon the solu-
ton of the tariff problem, and that
with 1t Will come resumption of de-
mand great enough to take care of the
normal output The latter view seems
to be better sustained by the evidence |
and if the manufacturers will adhere |
to the policy of making as little lumber
as possible and offering as few con-
cessions as possible on what they do
make, the trade certainly will not suf-
Ter as greatly as it has during the last
few months.
The sharp falling off in the export
trade in pitch pine during March had
a discouraging effect for a time. but
The principal markets abroad are not
az all pessimistic,, report consumption
about normal and look for improve
nent as sudden as the decline. Stocks
abroad are considerably lower than in
April, 1908 and the Gulf coast mills
expect to enjoy a moderate and grad

PLANS OF THE QUEEN
 VALLEY CO. MATURING
THE STANDARD DRILLING RIG TO BE ORDERED THE FIFTEENTH OF THIS
 MONTH
The Township Filled With Home
 steaders May be Resurveysd Soon

That the plans for bringing the lands in the vicinity of Queen creek and Higley under a high state of cultivation regardless of the reclama- tion service and the Roosevelt dam seems to look more like a certainty than for good many years.
 While there are a good many de- tails to be worked out in the bring ing to a successful culmination of the irrigation scheme yet every day is seeing more men signify their opinion of the plan by subscribing for stock.
 The general plar. as is generally so. las leen discredited. but when it is known that no less than twenty five men from California who are from district where water is pumped even fron, a greater depth than that at Queen creek, are allying themselves with the project, it at least has the appearance of being worth serious consideration. However, regardless of any minor obstacles the plans are being furthered regularly and stead fly.
 The drill which is to be a standard rig will be ordered the 18th of the present month and it is anticipated that it will commence active opera tiOns no later than August 1st. The wells are to all be sixteen inches in diameter.
 The latest proposition is to get survey of the township in which the greatest number of claims are located which is township 2 and R. F. Over seventy-five homesteads have been taken in this township and all of them not under any canal what ever. In this connection it might be well to make public a circular issued by the surveyor general of the terri tory which is as follows:
 It is a matter of general interest to prospective applicants for the sur vey of public lands that congress an nually appropriates the sum of S400, poo for the survey and re-survey of the public lands of the United States, which sum is apportioned among thirteen western states and territories according to the requirements of these respective districts.
 Under existing law, the expenditure of the annual appropriation for pub lie surveys is restricted, first, to lands occupied in whole or in part by ac- tual settlers on the public domain, and, second, to lands adapted to agri- culture. It will therefore be seen that the applications of actual bona fide settlers will be given preference in the matter of authorizing the surveys of townships.
 In making application for the sur vey of public lands, the applicant

 In order to secure the survey of full township and the quickest possible action by this office in awarding a contract, it would be ad- visable for the applicant to have two or more other settlers who are living within the same township make si- milar applications for survey.
 Public land surveys. payable from the regular annual appropriation, are made without cost to the settler, the government paying all expenses in connection herewith.
 Further instructioN relative to the method of procedure in the matter of securing the survey of public lands will be cheerfully given in reply to communications requesting specific information.

THE LESUEUR.G|BBONS
 WAREHOUSE CONTRACT
HAS BEEN LET TO VIM. BURTON. WORK WILL COMMENCE THIS
 MORNING ON EAST MAIN
General Building Revival Begun ir East Part of Town. Several
 New Residences.

The contract for the corrugated iron warehouse, 120x50 feet has been let to w. A. Burton and work will com mence this morning. The building is to be located on the skirt lot belong ing to the LeSueur addition fronting Main street and immediately south of the Mesa Milling company's plant. This building will be used exclusively for the storage of hay and in con neetion with it public scales will be installed.
 It is entirely probable that the grocery warehouse which will be erected in a short time will also be located on the lot immediately south of the one to be occupied by the hay warehouse.
 While the locations are made the more valuable on account of being on the main road and the railroad as well, it will in no wise become the warehouse district. MT. LeSueur has his own residence located in the block to the west and has also sold off a good many of the lots to prospective home builders.
 Right at the present time the east end of town is building up with more rapidity than any other section. AL bert Coplin is erecting a four room frame residence on a lot recently purchased from O. s. Stapley and immediately south of his residence. The lot immediately~ north of the Stapley residence in the LeSueur ad- dition has been sold to Mir. Motley of the firm of Wheems & Motley and will erect a splendid cottage this fall. The contractors are already well on the way with a house for Lide Pom eroy which is also in the LeSueur addition. The foundation is complet- ed for the seven room concrete house to be immediately erected for Geo. Ellsworth.

Mention has been made from time to time Of the good work being done by Raymond Satterwhite since he be- came a special agent of the land office by promotion from the position Of chief clerk in the office of the surveyor general of Arizona Recently it was stated that he had been directed to go to the Imperial valley and straight en out the land titles there which seemed to involve almost everybody. It is learned that he is making good progress and hopes with the aid of a stenographer and other facilities to be able to finish his assignment about the first of July recent letter from him says he is getting along well and is quite busy, as may be judged from the fact that he interviews from fifty to sixty people every day on the sub feet of the local tribulations. It is un- derstood he has been given special au- thoritv to make a satisfactory adjust ment between the settlers and from the conditions as described by the Daily Free Lance, one of the papers of that valley, he will need all the authority he can get, and will still have trouble enough. The Free Lance says:

It has been the nightmare of the investors, the enig- ma of the land office officials, the annoyance of the settlers and the Joy of the land attorneys. ever since the work of retaining the Imperial val ley. erstwhile the Colorado desert, was begun.

The members of company D met last night in the armory hall in re- sponse to an order by Captain J. B. Nelson. There is 8 plan on foot for the erection of an armory building. The idea is to rather make the arm ory a club room where the boys may congregate and amuse themselves in a legitimate way. It is believed that this will increase the interest in the militia and be the means of putting a premium on service in the order. The plan is a commendable one and should have the support of the citi- Zens.

AN AMUSING INCIDENT.

The fact that the United States treasury is in the receipt of lot of Confederate bonds, from Pau, France, the lawyer holding them demanding their immediate redemption, causes a smile to spread all over this country. It is said that these bonds are held all over Europe. and that the delusion prevails there that they will eventually be redeemed by the United States. The abundance of these bonds abroad is thus accounted for by the Boston Transcript:
 There must be large accumula- tion in Europe of Confederate prom ises to pay, for twenty years ago there was a. great buying movement of all Confederate issues which was apparently directed from Frankfort Many firms in this country acting un- der instructions from Frankfort bought Confederate bonds, the going price being s1 per bond without re- gard to denomination. The supply that came out in response to this de- 1nand was SO great that some of the American agents, suspecting counter feiting, became cautious and suspend cd their purchases. No clew was ap- parently ever found to the Frankfort belief that there was money in pick ing up these souvenirs of the lost cause.'"
