Dear Editors of the Times
As my father is a subscriber to
the Times, | am always anxious
to get it from the mail box and
I TO read the news from home or
rather near home. Father be-
ing an old settler and coming
from that vicinity in Iowa, we
always appreciate any news
from that section and any
news from that our many
friends that have moved from
there may write in letter form.
The warm weather now pre-
vailing in this immediate coun-
TRY, is sending the snow to the
lower places, but on account of
the ground not freezing in the
fall and as the snow has been
on all winter the water in
those low places will soon sink
away.
There are many public sales
this spring. Some people are
moving to this country.
We live in view of two grain
markets. The G. NJ. V. st. P.

corner of the farm we are on.

climate for most people.

Annual Report,

Annual Report of the Missouri
Valley Improvement League,
March 3rd, 1910.
Although our membership has
fallen off in the past two years,
yet we feel that our financial
returns have been quite favor
able. OF course we should have
been pleased had the sum reach
ed the thousand dollar mark,
but withall we are glad to be
able to show even this much.
We have held seven regular
meetings and one special. The
average attendance has been 13.
One of the most pleasant fea-
lures of the past year were the
Library Teas" or they were
pleasant when some one else
acted as hostess They Melted
the sum of S5205
We must not forget the kind
ness of Mr.. Dickman and Mr..
Heath. for their money from
their sales, also the bass ball
donation. The returns d ri
we'd from these sources came
with such ease to us, to whom
it usually means much effort,
when our funds are to be in
creased.
The Celebration of the 18th of
July, while not so great finan-
cially as we might have wished,
was, nevertheless, a success, as
it made every one who so kind
ly assisted and made the ladies
all feel they had a part in rails
ing the money for the Library,
now looming in the distance
We have taken in from var :

GIVEN UP TO DIE
By Four Fort Worth Physicians, Mrs. W. M. Smith of 1O4 N. Burnett Street
 Saved by Electric Radio

The verdict of four prominent physi- was death without an operation. Hear ing about the wonderful cures per formed by Electro Radio Mrs. Smith, as last resort, called upon them one ment was made by each of them and that her case was refused because she refused to undergo such a trying or deal as an operation for gall stones. She was brought to the Beatty building, S11h Main street, where the treatment began. After the fourth treatment the gall stones were removed and Mrs. Smith declares that she was saved from the grave. She is now able to walk to the office from her home for treat ment. The following letter was re- ceived:
 Aledo, Tex, Jan. 2S, 191O-This is to certify that had been suffering for a year with what was supposed to be appendicitis. I was told that unless I was operated on within three days l would die. I could not believe the verdict to be true and refused to be operated on. I heard of the Electro Radio experts and applied for treat ment They told me that I was trou- bled with gall stones and that the at tacks I had been suffering with was gall stone collie. I took the treatment and after only one treatment passed a number of gall stones.
 After one weeks Urea tment consid- cred myself cured and am highly pleased with Electro Radio methods.

 a meeting of state conservation con-
 mssioners. At this meeting Henry Hart ner of Louisiana declared that the con servation principles favored by the con

 with much heat that the congress was much less a conservation congress than
 a straight political meeting, the tendency of which seemed to be to exalt MT. Roosevelt at the expense of President
 Taft.
 The state commissioners thereupon vot- ed to demand that Taft's name be men tioned the same as that of his prede- cessor.

 Statisticians of the census bureau do
 not consider the falling off in the fig
 ures of the first ginning report to east
 ern states as significant, as they might appear They attribute the decrease to the lateness of the crop rather than to any cause which, in the end, would affect its volume. They say that the spring was late throughout the east ern southern states, retarding the growth of the plant and delaying its maturity for about two weeks. With out having any other definite informa- tion, they expect material improve
 ment in future reports. The season has been unusually good in Texas which facts accounts for the prospective larger crop there.
