RaSinS as Food.

A very general interest ia now
centered upon California RaisOn day
April 80, as a result of the determin-
ed and systematic campaign being
carried on by the raison growers of
the Golden State to convince the
people of this country that raisins
are not only an article of dessert to
be used on rare and state occasions
such as Thanksgiving and Christmas,
but an every day, staple article OF
food. When one pauses to consider
that pound of raisins is equal In

half of beef, shown by the United

NEW KIND OF ROAD MATERIAL
Salt and Aikali Scale From Boilers
Used In Parts of Kansas.

The farmers In central Kansas as
well as the people in the towns have
been interested in good roads for sew
eral years, and in Ellsworth and its
vicinity one can see almost any kind
of made road.
At one or two places in Ellsworth
county there are short roads where
treatment has been given similar to the
pavement on Douglas avenue in Ellis
worth Here there are two blocks that
fool four-fifths of the visitors to the
town. The treatment OF this street
was commenced about two or three
years ago. consisting of coarse and
fine cinders in layers. then a covering
surface of salt and alzali scale.
The water in this country is very
hard. and in all the steam boilers at
the salt mills and other factories Il sort
of alkali forms which must be remov@
ed frequently, and this, with the salt
and alkali scale that forms in the salt
pans. is used on Douglas avenue. 1t
forms a hard crust and makes most
excellent street. 1t is success on
the most busy thoroughfare of Ellis
worth. and if the supply was not so
limited the farmers would use it for
the rural roads aud more Of the streets
of Ellsworth would be paved with it,
The salt and alkali crust on Douglas
avenue is now about three inches
thick. and this lies on three inches OF
coarse cinders and three inches of fine
cinders. 1t makes a pretty street. In
appearance being like an asphalt pave
mept before it becomes dirty.

Arbor day will soon be celebrated
in the public schools and to a limit
ed extent elsewhere. There is the
usual annual discussion of forestry,
which is one of the benefits derived
from having an arbor day. The day
is not intended primarily as il forest
ry day in the sense of planting many
trees, but as an occasion for the in
5truction of the youth in the impor-
tauce of trees and in the methods of
planting. 1t has been of benefit
and will doubtless so continue to. be.
However in making Arbor Day
teachings profitable much depends
upon the enthusiasm of the instruct.

of the old Longfellow. the mide that made Clifton famous for copper over thirty years ago. and true Of the Old Dominion that has always made the fame oe. Globe.
 They were all great as prospects.
 The Little Butte of Rouse.
 This is the youngest of Arizona's great copper prospects. It has been a history maker from the start. It not only paid from the grass rots. but 1t actually paid before the grass roots were reached. l. occurs In a limestone outcrop that stuck up several feet above the grass and the ledge was mined and stripped before they got down to the level of the grass.
 It is dogn now about 100 feet and at every foot 1t has justified the hopes inspired by the rich outcrop. The bot tom is richer than the top-and the top was fine ore, too.
 Tenderfeet would call it a great mine already because it is a shipper. but it Is in the hands of old experienced min ing men who speak conservatively, and they only call it a great prospect.
 IL Is a history making prospect. and 1t looks sure to become a history mak- ing mine.
 It has already made not the history of Bouse camp alone. but more than any other property. It has made the whole brief modern history of the great Parker country.
 That is because it has been the first and only shipper
 The Parker country Is one Of the richest mineral regions of Arizona (and Arizona leads the world. remember, in the production of cupper). and has great many fine properties coming to the front They are not shipping but they are developing energeticaliy and putting great ore bodies in sight. They are too far from the railroad to ship. but branch lines will soon be run out from Bouse and bring in their ore. and perhaps send it there.
 Bouse camp had an initial advantage by being on the rairOad-the line runs right through the edge of the camp. and a spur half mile long is under construction right to the dump of the Little Butte property. so that the ore can be dumped from the bucket right into th>> car.
 For the present. Bouse Is the center of enterprise for the whole great Par ker country and the Little Butte is the bright particular star in the brilliant Armament os Bouse.
 It's on the map. It's on the railroad. It's a history making prospect, just as the Vulture. the Silver King and the United Verde. the Copper Queen and the old Dominion were history making prospects before they became history making mines.
 The Little Butte is owned by the Arizona-B -Bouse Copper company and is under the management of Charles Den ton, a mine manager of thorough ex- perience, who though man of modest speech owns up to a candid conviction that the Little Butte is destined to join the ranks of Arizona's history making mines.

WHY YOU SUFFER
 WITH DYSPEPSIA Here is a Cure For All
 Stomach Trouble Gives Relief In Five Minutes and Thoroughly Regulates Your Stomach Before You Realize It.

Does it ever occur to you how busy that little stomach of yours is? It actually only holds three pints, though in one year you force 1t to take in 2,500 pounds of material, digest it and prepare it for assimilation to the blood Do you wonder at the number of cases of Indigestion and Stomach trouble ? You CrOwd it with steaks and pastry. irritate it's juices with spices and acids and expect this little four-ounce mill to do its work
 Is there any wonder that your food passes undigested, or lays like lump of lead in your stomach? That every thing you eat turns to acid. Stomach gas and Stomach poison, putrefying the intestines and digestive( canals. causing Biliousness. Headaches. Dizzi- ness and Indigestion. Heartburn, Nau- seous Breath, Constipation and other more dangerous symptoms?
 Call your disease what you will Indigestion. Gastritis. Nervousness, Dyspepsia. Catarrh of Stomach. etc you know the real name. the real dis ease is fermentation of the food you eat-a sour Stomach. which belches gas an1 erupts undigested food or causes a feeling of nausea and miser- ableness.
 All these miseries vanish promptly when you stop this food fermentation. Take fifty cents to your Pharmacist for a case of Pape's Diapepsin/ Eat a triangule. and five minutes later your Stomach will do what a healthy Stomach should-that is, turn every bite you eat into bodily nourishment and without you realizing that you have a Stomach. one triangule will digest all the food you eat without the aid of the stomach. because it contains just the clements found in a good strong. healthy stomach.

 Mines Have Done MINES AND PROSPECTS

Every great mine Is history maker.
 The old Vulture mine near Wicken- burg made History for Arizona in the early days dhe dark days of the Civil war), produced seventeen millions in gold.
 Next came the great old Silver King mine in Pinal county. north of Flor ence. which made ten years of history for Arizona and produced ELEVEN millions in silver.
 Next. the great United Verde Sen ator Clark's mine )of Yavapai county. began it's great career as a history maker. producing gold silver and cop per. and uD to date has paid twen- ty-four millions in dividends -- in dividends. observe. not gross output
 The Copper Queen of Bisbee has been the greatest history maker of ali It is not only Arizona's greatest mine but it has been the mother of great mines, such as the Calumet & Arizona. which has paid ten millions in dividends. The Queen itself has prob ably paid forty millions. but as it was. up till few months ago. a close corporation there is no public record.
 The old Dominion of Globe has been a history maker for forty years.
 The old Longfellov mine of Clifton was Arizona's first history maker in copper.
 The Copper Queen has made the his tory of Southeast Arizona for a quarter of a century--all of it that Is worth talking about. It founded the towns of Risbee. where the mines are; Doug las where the .smelting is done, and of the new copper camp Of Courtland near both. These three camps contain about a quarter of the population of Arizona
 The output of the United Verde in 1906 exceeded in value the total output of Goldfield by nearly half million yet the Unired Verde is Arizona's third mine, in the value of it's output
 The output of the Copper Queen group at Bisbee Gall included) exceed the combined value of the output of Goldfield and Cripple Creek in 1907 by four millions.
 The output of the Copper Queen alone in 1907 exceeded in value the total output of all Nevada by five millions
