DIsFIeuRED WITH cRusTs

Some time ago l was taken with
eczema from the top Of my head to
my waist. 1t began with scales on my
body. l suffered untold itching and
burning, and could not sleep. l was
greatly disfigured with scales and
crusts. My ears looked as II they had
been most cut off with razor, and
my neck was perfectly raw. suffered
untold agony and pain. l tried two
doctors who said had eczema In its
fullest stage, and that 1t could not
be cured. I then tried other rem
edies to no avail. At last, tried set
of the genuine Cuticura Remedies,
which cured me of eczema when all
else had failed, therefore cannot
praise them too highly.
81 suffered with eczema about ten
months, but am now entirely cured.
and l believe Cuticura Remedies are
the best skin cure there is" (Signed)
Miss Matte j. Shaffer, R. F. D. 1, Box
s, Dancy, Miss, Oct. q, 1910.
Il had suffered from eczema about
four years when boils began to break
out on different parts of my body. 1t
started with a fine red rash. My
back was affected first, when 1t also
spread over my face. The itching was
almost unbearable at times. l tried
different soaps and salves, but nothing
seemed to help me until l began to
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
One box of them cured me entirely. l
recommended them to my sister for
her baby who was troubled with tooth
eczema, and they completely cured her
baby" (Signed) Mrs. F. L. Marber-
ger, Drehersville, Pa, Sept. 6. 1910.

Seventy-one Years in Shoe Shop.
Charles H. Wilson of Troy. N. Y.
occupies the unique position Of having
been in business in one building for II
years: at least he will have completed
Il years in the shoe business at 242-
244 River street August IL next. This
record, it is believed, can be equaled
by few If any shoe retailers In this
country. Mr. Wilson has also been in
business for himself for more than SO
years. Mr.. Wilson is today just as
much in active business as he was al
most three-quarters of a century ago.
when as thirteen-year-old lad he en-
tered the employ of John Leonard
Williams Of Troy. To be exact, that
was August IL, 1910. Mr.. Williams
kept a shoe store at 242-244 River
street in building which had been
erected in 1903, and so the building
now occupied by Mr.. Wilson for his
retail shoe business is one of the old
est buildings in Troy.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING

Notice IL hereby given that the
Annual Meeting Of the stockholders
OF The North Fork Fruit Growers
Association will be held in Kennedy
hall, Paonia, Colorado, at two
O'Clock p. m, Thursday. February
I'd, 1911, for the purpose Of electing a

iness that may properly come before

The Paonia newspaper., 1911-01-20

1t can hardly be said to be
wholly disinterested advice given
by the Du Pont Powder company
to fruit growers, but all the same
it may be valuable. The advice
is that it is cheaper and better to
excavate for tree planting by US
ing dynamite instead of a spade.
The explosion not only digs a
hole, but it loosens the ground
for some distance and kills every
grub near it. A hole is drilled
with an auger and a charge OF dy-
Mantle put into the hole. If the
ground is inclined to be wet, the
breaking up of the subsoil lets the
water down. 1t is said that trees
so planted bear more heavily and
better fruit.

1t is certain the federal govern
ment will abandon the Teller In
dian school at Grand Junction.
The property has been offered to
the state, but the people OF Grand
Junction do not seem to appreci-
ate their opportunity. The indus
trial school tor boys at Golden is
badly situated. There is not
ground enough that can be irriga-
ted to supply the school. IT IT
we're located on the Teller grounds
plenty of land could be secured
to make the institution practically
self supporting. besi.es adding
vastly to its usefulness. Instead
of requiring many thousands OF
dollars annually from the state
treasury, the school could nearly
if not quite earn its way. The
buildings at Golden would be USE
full for some other institution.

pie get a move on1

RAMBLING REMARKS

Education is a good thing. Its

AN ELEVENTH HOUR MAN.

By the death Of the late George w
Mcbride a stirring chapter In the
political history OF oregon is recall
ed. Mcbride became United states
senator from Oregon during the last
hour Of the famous deadlock in which
the legislature was engaged when J.
y. Dodph was defeated for reeIec-
ton in 1895.
During the entire 40 days Of the
session the members of the house
and senate had balloted in vain for
senator. Though the republican eau
Gus had endorsed Dolph for reelec-
ton band OF 30 bolted the caucus
and refused to stand for Dolph's re-
election. During the 40 dsys various
candidates were brought forth but
the opposing elemtnt in the republi-
can party were unable to unite until
after midnight on the closing day Of
the session when Mcbride was chosen.
Until the news Of McBrides election
went forth few people even knew he

streets IS Of especial value in the sum-
