EVERY NIGHT

STONE IN KIDNEY

An interesting case was that OF Mr..
II. l.. McDuffee, member Of the firm
OF II. C. DeWolfe & Co., of the Crock
er Building, San Francisco.
The case was puzzling. There was
pain in the kidney with a showing OF
blood Examination by seven physic-
clans proved that the blood was from
the kidneys, and II was the opinion
OF all that there was stone cutting
the kidneys, as the least exercise
caused showing OF blood.
Four X-Ray pictures were taken.
three OF them showing stone half
an inch in diameter. To be certain
that II was a stone that cast the
shadow. a similar stone about the
same size taken from a patient was
put under him for comparison-both
stones showing on the plate.
An operation was about decided up
on when Fulton's Renal Compound
was recommended to Mr.. McDuffee.
He feared the knife and gave II a
trial.
Within ten weeks the blood and
pulu Hdu Otdocu anu III oiA heheho hO
considered himself we'll.
We also have q three-page letter
from an old school physician .ectur'
er In one OF the San Francisco Medi'
cal colleges, covering a similar case
OF stone in the kidney. An operation
seemed inevitable.
He prescribed Fulton's Renal Com
pound upon the theory that as II was
getting results In Nephritis II ought
to have some effect to reduce the In
1ammation and excessive uric acid
that attends Calculus. He was so
surprised 10 get a complete recovery
that ne thought n record ought to be
made Of Il and gave us the letter
above referred TO.
Fultons Renal Compound seems to
have about the same percentage OF
efficiency In stone in the kidney that
II has shown in Brights Disease.

AIeHT TIME FOR IRRIGATION
Nature Of Crop, Soil and Weather Are
Important Factors In Determin-
ing Puzziino Question.

When should water be applied? This
is question In which no definite an.
swer can be given. except that water
should be applied before the plant
shows signs of distress. 1t therefore
follows that the time when water
should be applied cannot be deter.
mined by watching the plant. Thrifty
growth should characterize the plant
and crop from start to finish. Even a
small degree Of drought will induce
some plants to enter upon maturing
processes and then a new moisture
supply may start an undesirable new
growth rather than promote the old.
Many irrigators decide when their
crops would be watered by an exam.

RESERVOIR is A NECESSITY

In Emergencies.

(By B. P. FLEMING. New Mexico Agri.
cultural College.)
II seldom requires more than one

able If not necessary adjunct The
pumping plant which will operate day
In and day out through the entire
season without some serious difnculty

week at time. quite invariably occur
when the crop is In most need of
water. A shut down at such a time.
particularly with garden crops or
melons, may mean the loss of the
crop and It is highly important, there
fore, that there be some reserve sup
ply of water against such emergen-
cies.
There are also other arguments in
favor of the reservoir. among which is
the fact that by means of reservoir
1t is possible to make use of greater
head of water when irrigating than
is yielded by the pumping plant since
the discharge of the pump for sew
eral hours may be retained by the
reservoir and then rapidly drawn OFF
through good-sized ditch to the
place of use. By so doing 1t is pos
sible to cover a larger amount of
land with the same quantity of water
than would be possible with a small
stream, fact which every practical
i frrigator recognizes. Moreover, by
use of reservoir 1t Is possible to ir-
rtgate profitably a much larger area
with a small pumping plant than
would otherwise be possible, since the
plant may pump water into the reser.
voir in the night time and during in
tervals between irrigations, reducing
In this way the standby expenses or
length Of time during the year that
the large plant would be idle and dur.
ing which time interest charges on the
plant and depreciation keep accumu.
lating the same as though 1t were in
operation.
A reservoir suitable for the pur-
pose should not be an expensive piece
of work. The chief consideration, of
course, is water tightness, but by use
of straw or manure on the adobe bot
tom and banks. and trampling or pud-
ding thoroughly while wet by driving
sheep or goats about the basin, a very
compact water-tight surface may be
secured.
Pigs are equally effective Il al
lowed to wallow in the reservoir
when 1t is nearly dry and a vigorous
and sufficiently long continued tramp
ing by men provided with rubber
boots will frequently work wonders
in preventing seepage.
Where adobe or clay is not found
on the site 1t will pay to bring it
from distance and spread a layer
six to eight inches thick over the
bottom and sides. Mix 1t with straw
and puddle as above described.

BY KNOCKOUT.

Jack johnson now finds himself in
much the same position that Jim JEFF
fries was in when he defeated Jack
Munroe back in 1904. There is no
body for him to fight. johnson has
proven beyond the shadow of doubt
that he is the peer of any man in
the mitt game and If he takes care of
himself it will be long time before
any man will be able to take the cham
pionship crown from his head.
Sam Langford talks of fighting Jack
and has challenged the big black for
battle. Johnson says he will pay
no attention to the def, declaring such
fight would not draw. II don't think
Langford can whip Kaufman or
Ketchell." said Jack. "and everybody
knows neither of these men have a
chance with me-"
Tommy Ryan has been coaching a
Under Ryans Instructions O'Kelly
won his first battle, a fight with a
man named Comiskey, whom no per
son ever heard of. but foxy Tommy
isn't going to put his man against
johnson for some time to come, II at
all.
johnson is SO much better than any
other man now in the ring that the
only hope for the white race lies in
some unknown being developed in the
next year or two who can get him
into the ring out of condition as he
has been in several battlesAsince he
defeated Tommy Burns.
Up to the time Johnson fought JEFF
fries there were many who said the
negro didn't have the necessary punch
to defeat good man. This no doubt
was due to the big blacks peculiar
style of milling. He always has been
content to take his time and go easy
with an opponent Before the fight
with Jeffries. Johnson said he intended
to prove that he did have the punch,
and he did.
Then there were the people who
said that Johnson had yellow
streak" If he has Jeffries was un-
able to find 1t, and if Jeffries couldn't
make it show there's little chance for
any other man to do So Jim Corbett
was one of those who openly declared
that johnson was lacking in bravery.
"Jeffries will make him jump out of
the ring" said Corbett. Again Pom
padour Jim" was wrong. 1t is a no.
torious fact that Corbett never has
been able to pick winner. He
thought Burns would whip johnson.
He thought Cans would defeat Nelson.
We all know the results of those bat
tlese.
Corbett complained before the fight
that Jeffries did not box enough. He
made the same excuse after Jeffries
was knocked out. There probably is
some truth to this. but it is doubtful
whether the result would have been
any different.
Now comes the question: Could
johnson have whipped the Jeffries
that whipped Bob Fitzsimmons? It's
a hard question to answer and the ex-
perts fail to agree. From present day
indications 1t 10 doubtful whether
there ever was better man than
johnson. John l. Sullivan was the
kind Of man who 10 made to order for
Johnson's style of lighting. Sullivan's
wild swings and bull like rushes would
have. been easy for Jack. johnson
would have peppered John L. the way
he did Jeifries. He would have met
