ASTHMA.

Perhaps there is no disease that
causes so much suffering and anxiety
as Asthma. 1t comes without warn
ing and after torturing its victim for
hours or even days, disappears as
suddenly, leaving the sufferer de-
pressed and exhausted.
To prevent these attacks, il is nee
eSSrry to get at the seat of the tire Ible
and remove the cause, which is
poison in the blood that causes
Spasmodic contraction of the mus
Giles in the air tubes of the lungs.
Plant Juice Asthma Remedy is the
proper medicine TO remove ASth-
matte poison from the blood, strength
en- the muscles and nerves and re-
store the health.
Plant Juice Asthma Remedy is 50 a

Plans For Another Organization

Pueblo, Colorado, April 2S.-There
Ia talk OF centralizing the splendid
commercial organizations OF the Mis-
souri, Pacific country as has been done
In the Arkansas Valley.
The suggestion has been made that
there be held shortly Missouri Pa.
citic country conference, like the one
in the Arkansas valley at La Junta
rece ntly.
Meanwhile, the spirit keeps up, and
the alcrtness OF the Missouri Pacihc
section is apparent. Ordway Is still
talking about the new organization,
and has asked some boosters to be
ready to help out on the plan some
night soon.
G. l.. Wilson, mayor OF Tribune,
president Of the Central Kansas-Colo.
RADIO boulevard. and general hustler.
was here the first OF the week to
see the Trailers and ask them to
spend as much time as possible In the
Missouri Pacific country. Entertain.
ments were arranged, and the utmost
courtesy was shown those who were
returning into Kansas from the big
new Santa Fc Trail endurance run.
Mr.. Wilson gives it as his word that
the roads movement iu his sec.
tion Is pronounced and vigorous. and
that he will yield to no man or men
as to the efficiency or the Boulevard
when completed.
Scott and Leoti, as we'll as Dighton,
vie with each other 10 showing of to
the Trailers the good things OF their
section. Irrigation is now being
practiccd quite extensively In that
region, and that Is one reason why the
Missouri Pacific country Is so friendly
to the Eighteenth National Irrigation
Congress. September 1890. next. Pro-
jccts are being established In Wichita
and Scott counties. with success, so
far. This takes the irrigated portion
OF Kansas away from the Arkansas
valley and up toward the north.
All these towns are preparing now
for the Eighteenth congress, and
while the Arkansas valley will proba-
bly, have the bulk OF those attending
the congress on account Of more popu.
lation and more irrigation, 1t is the
sincere determination uf the Missouri
Pacific towns to get ready for the big
event.

partly into Kansas. Is an interesting
souvenir prepared by a Pueblo man.
which will probably gain wide circu-
lation and do the valley u great deal
Of good, especially this year with the
Eighteenth National Irrigation Con-
gress meeting in the valley, Scptcm-
Der $3.50.
This map is IL feet In length; sh"ws
Pueblo as the valley capital; shows
every stream, every railroad, every
Irrigation project, as we'll as roads and
projects under contemplation.
A color scheme will illustrate the
different valley resources. and there
will be a footnote fully explaining
these.
The map, folded, will be contained
in a book, which will have descriptive
matter setting forth the claims of
the Valley OF Content.
The purpose Is TO put this into the
hands of prospective investors and
settlers, but it will be a revelation to
residents Of the valley as we'll.
The first edition OF this book and
map will be 100000.

Tho Fruit Crop Lost

According to the newspaper reports
the fruit crop of the United States
has within the last ten days been Sc
riously damaged and In many states
completely lost. 1t is reported that
the loss from this source will reach
the enormous sum of $50, ,OOO, 100000.
Fortunately, the fruit in this sec.
ton has, up to this time. escaped
damage from frost. From present
prospects IL appears that we are to
have a record breaking fruit crop.

Marriage a Failure

Her life Is a failure, the whole world
knows, her illusions have gone to
smash; for she married cane and a
suit Of clothes, and a smile and a
blonde mustache. When first heard
she was bound to wed, talked to her
long, In vain; "the man you haye
chosen Is cheap" l said, "Maria Sa'

since he was lad, In the days OF the
long ago; he grieves his mother and
Sights his dad. and that's all l need
to know. just write it down In your
new spring hat, Maria Samantha
Jane, that man is mean as Nor

l know he's as slick as buncO man;
you think he is free from guile; but
you will find IT u risky plan to marry

he has tried to break; he's worried
them all his life; aud he'll be as mean

Mapping the boundary lines for the
proposed division Of Otcro county Is
a favorite diversion OF some Of the
newspapers OF the county these days.
La Junta Is saying nothing. saving

Ordway, Of course. wants the north

the eastern section should be rent In

burg as the county capital. Now

sion muddle by advocating the reten-
ton Of the present boundary lines and

1t Is n pious idea for cantaloup
growers to get out right now and
begin the soil preparations for the
forthcoming crop. The field should
be plowcd foot deep. disking and
leveling into as mellow u state as
possible. A week or more before
planting make good furruws so that
the water may at no time during irri-
tiUn flow over or lie on tho seed bed.
The vines should at all times be on
dry ground and should be trailed so
as to lie on top OF the bed out OF the
furrow. 7 he seed bed or space should
be seven feet wide from furrow to
furrow. A short time be fore planting
run water through all the furrOws to
insure sufficient moisture by sub
bing for terminating the seed and
and also guage the line for planting.
The time OF planting is governed en-
tirely by the season and character OF
soil but we are looking for an earlier
seeding this year by at least a fortnight.
Soil which warns up readily can be
planted with success much earlier
than that which does not. Warm
days and nights are essential to rapid
growth OF the cantaloup and under
favorable circumstances the vines will
be In bearing ninety days after plant

Poor Mix

There Is no article OF food so gener.
ally used from the cradle to the
grave as milk. In this we are all
agreed that it may be good, bad, or
Indifferent, and the meagre intelli-
gence, or shall we say Instinct, OF the
infant Is equal to the task Of diiferen-
tiating one quality OF milk from
another. But the children OF larger
growth are generally ignorant OF the
conditions which enter into one phase
OF the production OF inferior milk.
What | refer to Is the common mis-
take in believing that the quality OF
milk is determined largely by the
nature OF the food that the COW eats.
One Of the arguments used in Den.
yer against the feeding Of brewers
malt TO dairy COWS was that it pro-
duced poor quality Of milk. The
same argument has been used in the
case OF beet pulp. This Is a mistake.
Each COW is psychological unit in
the production OF milk constituents.
when In healthy condition. The
quantity OF milk varies greatly
according 70 the kind and amount OF
food consumed, but the quality re-
mains uniform with remarkable per-
sistency.
II the COW Is sick or starved, and
the body functions abnormal, then IL
may be different. 1t Is fact Of much
Interest, as well as OF economic impor-
tance, that the COW under all sorts Of
adverse conditions will persisteDtly
adhere to her standard In the relative
proportion Of milk constituents.
The flavor OF milk will vary accord
ing to the feed aud other things. The
milk may be red or blue In color
and the cream may be rOpy: II may
sour quickly and many things may
happen to 1t because OF the presence
OF bacteria-when cans and bottles
are not sterilized and the mixer Is
careless; but the same amount OF
cream. casein, milk sugar and other
constituents are there. quart for
quart, provided the COW Is healthy
ana the mtlkman has not SKINNED IL
down TO three per ccnt-or more.
There Is a great diGenence In the
quality Of milk in individual cows, rs
, we'll as In breeds. Samples Of milk
from certain COW were brought to
the Veterinary Department OF the
Colorado Agricultural College for
analysis. The complaint was that
there was no cream on the milk. An.
alysis OF each sample revealed about
two per cent butter fat. The COW
has been examined and found healthy.
The feed has been changed, but the
milk remains poor. She Is that kind
Of a COW.
