Through the Blood.
Anyone who has had an attack Of
lumbago knows the ordinary treatments,

0atirons and ba9s of heated salt or hops.
These give feeling of comfort, which

not cured and one attack follows an.
other. suddenly and painfully.
Az In the treatment Of muscular rheu-
matism, lumbago must be cured through
the blood. This 10 tho method of the
tonic treatment and it's success is shown
BY the statement of Mrs. Ida NJ Halves,
OF No. 1855 Washington street, New
Dorchester, Mass. She says:
Through exposure became afflicted
with lumbago Il few years ago. did
not mind the trouble at first but soon il
became moro serious. Tho pains would
catch me very suddenly in She small of
my back and it seemed as though I
was doubled up. My right side was
affected and the pains were worse dur.

to get around and do my work. Nv

had these pains on and off for a humble,
Of years and was frequently confined &c

six bushels which weighed from forty-two to forty-eight pounds to
the bushel, oats in Montana being sc heavy that forty-two pounds is
the accepted weight of a bushel, instead of thiry-two, as in Nebraska
and Iowa.
Yet at many points in the Missouri river valley wheat is not
worth anything. 1t is practically worthless at a time when the food
question is becoming more and more a world problem. But a COM
modify raw or finished is OF little IT no value until it has reached the
place of it's use. To grow thirty-hve bushels Of winter wheat 20 the
acre on one of the great dry farms OF the Missouri river valley means
nothing TO the farmer unless it can be fed to hogs and chickens, and
these appropriated to feed his family. To haul 100 pounds of wheat
from this region to the railroad costs from 81 to $3.50, and then it
takes from 80 to 40 cents NOR. to haul it to the primary market {
Duluth or Minneapolis.
Farm products, except under special conditions, will not stand
wagon haul of more than ten miles. Thus the farmers in Montana
as a general thing, have not only to compete with the farmers in the
older states whose lands are along the right-of-way of railroads, but
the dealer to whom these dry farmers sell their wheat and oats must
compete with buyers hundreds of miles nearer the primary markets,
many hundred miles nearer the sea-. With this longer haul as a dis
advantage a waterway offers a means of overcoming it by the lesser
transportation rate.
The key to another situation is believed to De held somewhere il

that feeling of moving with Indefinite purpose, or returning to the

chalky taste of dust on the mouth and lips, a gritty sense Of earth on

and women who have gone into the valley and settled along the
streams sixty to one hundred and twenty miles from a railroad have
already demonstrated that the lands will produce more and better
wheat than the old sad soils of the so-called western agricultural
states

shell rivers and northwest toward the Big Dry creek it is no uncom-

That Montana and the Dakotas r entering a second period Of
intense and complex development and assuming a commercial impor-
lance which cannot be ignored is everywhere recognized. Within
their borders r supplies OF precious metals. coal, lumber. grains,
