large openings, but not large enough
to let a persons hand through. The
cage is detachable and fits on the
base through the engagement Of
strips of spring metal which run
across it's ends. At the same time it
holds the paper in place and there
is no danger of a gust Of wind taking
up the sticky mass and whirling it
about the room. In such cases it in
variably falls sticky side down or Is
found clinging tenaciously to some

A woman who is sick and suffering, and won't at least
try a medicine which has the record Of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, is to blame for her own wretched
condition. ~
There are literally hundreds of thousands of women in
the United States who have been benefited by this famous
old remedy, which was produced from roots and herbs over
thirty years ago by a woman to relieve womans suffering.
Read what these women say:

NAL for Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, hoping it
may induce other suffering women to avail themselves Of the
benefit of this valuable remedy. .a. as- ~

these women it will help any other woman who is suffer-

CROPS AND PROSPERITY.

The Inland Empire has the prom
ise OF the largest wheat crop ever
produced and, according to the re-
ports OF the government, favorable
conditions exist over the country for
a big crop of wheat and a crop Of
corn never before eQualed. What
effect these conditions will have on
the market is probIematical, but 1t
Is safe to say that prices viii remain
frm and the farmers will have we'll
filled purses as result. This means
prosperity of a substantial nature,
because IL is the prosperity OF the
tillers OF the soil that makes the
country prosperous and times good.
The government crop report for
July makes very pleasant reading for
the country. Reduced into plaiE
terms II indicates a yield Of $751;
100000 bushels OF corn, 663, 000,-
600 bushels OF wheat, 963,000,000
bushels OF oats, $4,000 900 bushels
OF rye, and 1874 100000 bushels Of
barley. Except In the single item OF
wheat this Is a lead over 1908, and
the falling on In wheat 10 only
100000 bushels. Save In 1902 and
1905, the oats crop promises to
break all records Barley Is far
ahead OF the biggest crop OF the past.
II Is In corn, however, that the
largest gain Is made. The crop Of
1905, which was 1891. 200. 900 BUSH
els. holds the record for corn along
10 the present date but II existing
Indications are maintained the yield
for 1909 will be 234. 200, 900 bushel1
in excess OF that OF that year. Al
the value Of corn Is double that OF
wheat the gain which is promised FOL
1909 Is important. Owing to the
comparatively low price Of corn II
1905, the big crop Of that year die
not place az much money In th'
farmers pockets as did the smaller
ones OF 1907 and 1908. That o
1909 yielded the farmers s1,61S
100000. Undoubtedly the heav.
crop OF the present season. II tn
present prospects are continued, will
reduce prices somewhat, but tn
growers viii be compensated by tn
increased output. Two months NOR
must pass, however, before the GRO
can be estimated with any conf
