RUSH OF COLONISTS.
Great Movement of Homeseekers and
 Tourists to California.

A dispatch from Chicago says the colonist traffic to California this sea son promises to be about equal to that of 1907, which was the heaviest on record
 During the spring of 1905 this move ment amounted to 39,OOO persons; ill the following year it was 33,OOO; in 1907 there were 4S,0OO persons who took advantage of the low rates to get to the Pacific Coast, and last year there were 23,5OO, the depressed times serving to keep people at home. The spring of 1907 was the best in the history of the country.
 Last year the roads increased the rate, and this action also had the eff feet of reducing the amount of travel This year the roads have lowered the rate to the basis of 1907, and the ef- feet has been that the entire move ment promises to be nearly double that of last year

 Couuh Remedy,

"As long ago as 1 can remember my mother was a faithful user and friend of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, but never in my life have I realized its true value until now,'' writes Prof. H. A. Howell, of Howell's American School, Havana, Cuba. "On the night of February 3rd our baby was taken sick with a very severe cold; the next day was worse and the following night his condition was desperate. He could not lie down and 1t was necessary to have him in the arms every moment. Even then his breathing was difficult l did not think he would live until morning. At last I thought of my mothers remedy, Chamberlain Cough Remedy which we gave, and it afford ed prompt relief, and now three days later, he has fully recovered. Under the circumstances l would not hesi- tate moment in saying that Cham berlain's Cough Remedy, and that only, saved the life of our dear little boy" For sale by Dunaway 6 Lowe, Drug gists.

APHIs DESTROYERs COME.
Millions of Lady Bugs Set at Liberty
 in Imperial Valley.

Millions of lady bugs have been turned loose in Imperial Valley the past two weeks, to make vigorous war or the melon aphis. It is expected that the depredations of this army Of lady bugs will keep the aphis pest down to condition where the can taloupe growers will note but little damage to plants.
 This was one of the practical re- suits of the recent visit of the demon stration train. Prof. Edward K. Carnes, who is in charge of the in secretary of the University of Califor- mia, and who accompanied the party on this train, brought the supply of bugs to the valley and liberated quan- titles of them at each stopping place.
 He states that placing the lady bugs in this field at such an early stage will be of great benefit to the melon and vegetable growers, as the bugs will at once begin the attack on the larvae of the aphis, at which period they get in their most effective work.
 Prof. Carnes talked very interest ingly of these bugs while in El Cen tro, and is enthusiastic over the re- suits possible to attain if care is giv- en the project of bringing ill sup plies of them at regular periods. As the lady bugs subsist principally on the aphis it is likely they will die dur ing the summer months, and next year a new stock will have to be out the valley.
 The bugs can be gathered by the quart in the northern sections of the Pacific Coast and MT. Carnes believes that the valley ranchers would do well to provide for the gathering of large quantities. which could be secured simply for the cost of gathering and the eXpressage.
 The insects which were liberated here were gathered in northern Wash ington, where they hibernate for the winter months. It is said that in some parts of that country the ground for acres is covered with these bugs, and sometimes are found ill piles two and three feet deep.
 Prof. Carnes says: II have seen the ground for acres in some places sim ply red with lady bugs. They have Of |, piling in great heaps. The insects on the outside become chilled and start to burrow into the pile, and this crowds out those at the bottom of the heap. When they strike the cold air they in turn begin to burrow in, and by this continual struggle enough heat is generated to sustain them until spring arrives.
 'The bugs could be gathered by men in the north who will work for SITS per day, and the expressage on a large quantity would not be heavy. shall be glad to give any information l can to anyone interested in secur- ing further supply of these aphis destroyers for the Imperial Valley, and letters for me may be addressed to Sacramento"
 No particular care was given the bugs when they were liberated as it is believed they will at once begin their search for food on any vegetable growth which is covered with aphis.
