WILL NOT ACCEPT SCRIP
Newelrs Device for Aiding Settlers
Is Illegal.


Washington, June 2S.-Secretary
Ballinger has put an end to the CO.
operative plan of building govern
ment irrigation projects. Hereafter
all such works will be built entirely
by the reclamation service and be
paid for exclusively out of the rec
lamation fund.
This change grows out of the sec
retary's disapproval of the scheme
devised by Director Newell, under
which settlers on uncompleted pro-
iects were permitted to work on
canals, bitches, etc, and receive in
PAYMENT for their labor a certain
kind of scrip, which was later ac-
cepted by the reclamation service in
payment for water rights In de-
vising this scheme, Newell sought to
give the settlers employment during
the time when their farms yielded
little or nothing and at the same
time lessen the burden imposed upon
them by the payment for water de-
manded during the early years OF
their settlement, when their eX-
penses were heaviest.

simple that anyone can prepare it
at home at small cost. It is made
up as follows: Get from any good
prescription pharmacy, fluid ex-
tract dandelion, one-half ounce:
compound kargon, one ounce: COM
pound syrup sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking in a
bottle and take in teaspoonfnl

failure of the kidneys to properly
filter or strain from the blood the
uric acid and other matter, which,
