Valley County and wherever farming
has been carried on, 1t has produced
yields of from 20 to 30 bushels Of
wheat per acre, 40 to 20 bushels OF
oats and large crops Of hay, alfalfa

PHYSICIANS OF
OMAHA DISAGREE
DIFFERENT OPINIONS ON COOP.
ER's REMARKABLE SUCCESS
HELD BY MEDICAL MEN OF
NEBRASKA METROPOLIS.

Omaha, Neb., Feb. 16.-The aston
fishing sale of Cooper's preparations In
this city has now reached such Inn
n figures that the medical frater-
nifty at large have become forced into
open discussion of the man and his
preparations.
The physicians as a whole seem to
be divided with regard to the young
mans success In Omaha-some be-
ing willing to credit him for what he
has accomplished, while others assert
that the interest he has aroused is
but a passing fad which cannot last,
and which will die out as quickly as
it has sprung up.
The opinion of these two factions Is
very well voiced in the statements
made recently by two of a number Of
physicians who were interviewed on
the subject.
DR.. J.. E. Carass when questioned
about the matter said: Il have not
been a believer in proprietary prepa-
rations heretofore, nor can l say that
l believe in them at present. But l
must admit that some of the facts re-
Gently brought to my notice concern
ing this mar Cooper have gone far
towards removing the prejudice had
formed against him when the un-
heard-of demand for his preparations
first sprang up in this city. Numbers
Of my patients whom / have treated
for chronic liver, kidney and stomach
troubles have met me after taking
Cooper's remedy and have stated
positively that he has accomplished
wonderful results for them. l notice
particularly in cases of stomach trou-
BILE that the man has relieved several
cases of years standing that proved
very obstinate to treatment.
II am the last nan on earth to
stand in the way Of anything that may
prove for the public good simply
through professional prejudice, and
l am inclined to give Cooper and his
preparations credit as deserving to
some extent the popular demonstra-
ton that has been accorded them in
this city"
Another well known physician who
was seen took the opposite view of
the "Cooper.mania," as he called 1t,
which now has this city in its grip.
He said: II can only liken the present
state of affairs to a certain kind of
hallucination. For want Of a better
name, l might call it 'Cooper-mania.'
The people of Omaha seem to be
firm in the belief that this mar Cooper
has health corked up in a bottle.
Some of them imagine that he has
completely cured them of various ills,
judging from their statements. 1t is
beyond me to say why the city has
gone crazy over the man. It may be
safely put down. I think, to n of
the passing fads that so often attack
the American public.
Sooner or later the people are
bound to regain their senses and will
then realize that the reputable physi-
clan is the n to whom their health
had best be entrusted"
In the meantime Cooper meets sew.
eral thousand people daily, and only
smiles when statements of the above
character are quoted to him.
