Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications they cannot reach the
diseased portion of tne ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness. and hat Is by con
stitutional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the.
Eustachian Tube. When this lube is inf ed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the inffam ma
tion can be taken out and this tube restoree
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are
caused by Cstarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any

COMMERCIAL CLUB MEETIN J

large portion of the time at the
commercial club meeting last Fri
day evening 1t develops that the
La Jara creamery is making an
extra good grade of butter at the
present time and the demand is
steadily increasing but a consider
able quantity of ranch butter is
still being made in this vicinity
that is marketed at Alamosa and
Romeo. The farmer milking two
or three cows claims it does not
pay him to keep a separator and
bring his cream to town but saves
considerable money by trading
butter at % cents a pound for
merchandise.
All the trouble and extra work
of churning on the farm seems
to be uncalled for, the creamery
is buying hand skinned cream
right along and glad to get it.
All they ask is that it be in good
condition which in this country
of artesian wells and cool milk
houses is an easy proposition. If
the farmer will stir his cream
every day and keep it in cool
place it need be brought to town
but once a week.
All these facts were brought
uuJ at the discussion OF the ques-
tion at the last meeting. For fur
ther information see Mr.. Rogers
at the creamery who will explain
all the points that have not been
made clear.
