Northwood, Jan. 4.-The next lot OF
military rifles served out by Uncle
Sam to his soldiers, will very probably
have stocks made from northern Iowa
walnut trees, from the timber of A. ].
Johnson's farm, northwest of this place.
Mr.. Johnson recently entered into a
contract with Des Moines firm, which
supplies such timber to the govern
ment, for the sale of large number
of his largest and best black walnut
trees. He made delivery the latter part
of last week. For two or three days,
his teams were busy hauling the logs
which were cut into about six foot sec
tons. to the depot, for shipment to Des
Moines.
Mr.. Johnson has not stated what
price was received per 1000 feet for the
timber, but it is known to have been a
fancy" price, for he has refused what
would be ordinarily considered good
offers from furniture manufacturers.
The filling of this contract has by no
means stripped Mr.. Johnson's farm OF
walnut timber. however. There still re-
main many large trees, and e. fairly
heavy second growth.

CHAMBERLAIN'S COUGH REM.
EDY A FAVORITE EVERY.
WHERE.
Enormous Sale on It Largely Due
to Personal Recommendations
ofPeople Who Have Been
Cured By It.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has been on
the market for over one-third of century.
Starting from small beginning it has grown
in favor and popularity until the demand for
it often requires shipments in carload lots.
1t is now on sale at almost every drug store
and most country cross road stores in the
United States. There is no question as to
its merits; in fact, the enormous sale on It
has been brought about to large extent BY
the personal recommendations of people who
have been cured by it. When You use .
remedy for cough or cold and find II far
superior TO any other that you have ever
tried, it is natural that you should tell your
friends of your good fortune. It has become
the mothers favorite for coughs, colds and
Group, as they found that it can always be
depended upon, and that it containsno opium
or other harmful drugs. During these years
in which we have been making, selling and
using this preparation we have never known
of single case Of a cold resulting in pneu-
monia when Chamberlain Cough Remedy
was used, which leads US to believe that it is
a certain preventive of that disease. The
fact that II can be depended upon in every
case has crowned it with the success it enjoys.
