CREIGHTON.

Creighton. Nov. 27-The farmers in- stitute held in the Creighton school house Monday afternoon and evening was well attended. School was dis missed for the afternoon and the chil- dren joined their elders and listened to the every interesting and instructive talks made.
 Prof George w Freeman. plant breeder of the Arizona experiment sta .tion made d very able address on The Improvement of Farm Crops by Selec- tions and Breeding" Professor Free man called attention to some of our we'll known fruits and gave a brief his tory of each showing how by breeding and cultivation they had been brought from the wild state to their present perfection. He then showed how many of our present crops can by careful breeding he greatly improved and made to yield larger returnsA
 In the evening Professor Freeman spoke on Alfalfa. the Different Vari- cities and Their Improvement Among the various points brought out was the necessity of breeding an alfalfa for the specific purpose for which it is desire6- That is to say, the same variety of all falfa that would yield the most seed per acre might not yield the best hay either in quality or quantity.
 Professor Clothier's lecture on "The Improvement of the Dairy Cow proved very interesting and instruc- tive.
 The lecture that our people were in terested in, perhaps. more than any other was that on "The Control of Git rus Insect Pests,"T by A. W. Morrill,. entomOlogist of the Arizona horticul- tural commission. Among other things he warned against was planting trees that were infected by scale or even trees that came from a district that is so infected The large audience that greeted the speakers and the interest taken in the institute shows that the farmers are anxious to learn, and the next institute held will be more largely attended.

Persons who at middle age should feel the full strength and energy of youth are often rheumatic nervous. irritable and inclined to worry too much. There are spells of utter weariness. life is made miserable by constant lameness and dull backache and sleep is disturbed with pain and distressing urinary disorders. You have tried to shake this off and wonder why you can't. Proba- bly you have missed the hidden cause sick kidneys. Prompt treatment with Doan's Kidney Pills would right things quickly.
 An active life weakens the kid neys and something must be done to stimulate the little filters of the blood-to keep them working as they should.
 Every day of your life the blood gathers up a dangerous amount of uric poison. and if the kidneys do not pass it all off with the urine. there is bound to be serious trouble. Uric acid weights the blood. clogs the circulation, weakens the heart, dulls the brain. irritates the nerves and forms little jagged crystals in the pain when these parts are moved. These pains you know as sciatica. rheumatism. lumbago. gout or neural gia. according to where they occur.

Ariz, says: T had a constant. dull ache in the small of my back for a long time and while it was not very severe. it was sufficient to make me feel miserable I often went to bed with a backacne and got up in the morning with it still clinging to me. There was also a weakness across my Joins that made it difficult for me to stoop, and if I did bend over I became very dizzy. The kidney secretions were too frequent in passage, causing me much annoyance and I was bothered by a swelling in my limbs. in fact my whole system was run down. About year ago I procured a supply of Doan's Kidney Pills at the Adams Pharmacy and the use of two boxes disposed of the backache and all fault with my kidneys. I cannot say to much in praise of Doan's Kidney PfnS."

FOR CEDAR
IN PENCIL MAKING

The approximate failure of the sup
Ply of pencil cedar has led to substi-
tutes in pencil making. The govern
ment, which owns millions of acres of
land on which Alaska cedar grows, is
suggesting the use of that wood in
the place of red cedar.
There are just two objections to
the wood. One is it's color and the
other its door. The people are ia
miliar with the red cedar pencil,
which has an odor that is decidedly
pleasant to most people, and to its
color, which differentiates it from ali
other woods that have so far been
tried, except, perhaps, redwood, or
big tree. The latter and also the
Western white cedar are too coarse
and brittle to make satisfactory pen.
eli wood.
This preference, due to custom,
may be difficult to overcome, but the
Alaska cedar seems to answer every
requirement in point of texture. 1t is
almost identical in that particular
with the best qualities of pencil cedar
The American Lumberman does not
know that these tests have been mad.
on this point, but from its observation
it would think there is no difference
between the two woods in straight
ness of grain, strength, softness and
the ease with which the wood is cut
with a knife in sharpening.
In point of color the public should
readily get used to the Alaska cedar
1t is not a white wood, but, when
freshly cut, is sort of bright lemon
yellow, darkening to a light orange
tint when exposed to the weather. II
presents such a contrast to the old
fashioned pencil cedar that it might
be objected to at first, but it is a
beautiful wood that, in the qualities
so far mentioned, would we think. be
acceptable. but the odor would be OBJ
ljectionable to many. It is as strong
ly scented as pencil red cedar. but the
odor is somewhat unpleasant. SEEM
ing to have rancid quality to it.

COTTON INDUSTRY.


nURING the spring of 1861 President Brigham
- Young and other leading made a trip
through southern Utah-They passed through Paro-
wan, Cedar City and st. George and noticed the
start which had been made in the raising OF
cotton President Young was much impressed with
what he and at the following October con-
ference several hundred families were called to
go south to strengthen the settlements already
there and to raise cotton The colony was headed
by George A. Smith, Erastus Snow and Horace s.
Eldredge These settlers went vigorously to work
and the following the first cotton crop of any
consequence-about 100000 pounds-was gather
ed Joseph Horne. formerly of Salt Lake City. had
charge of the cotton industry.
A cotton factory built at Parowan In 1861,
by a Mr.. Hanks. and the crop of the southern
Planters was shipped there for several years but
in 1S69-70 the Washington cotton factory was
built George. and all the local cotton prod
uct handled at that mill for many years.
Machinery was added later to the factory for
the weaving of silk. but this, like the cotton in
dustry was doomed to annihilation through the
stress of competition and unfavorable conditions.
