DELTA COUNTY'S FUTURE
LOOKS ESPECIALLY BRIGHT
improvements Will Come Thick and
Fast to All Parts of the Ban
ner County.

Picture to yourself, if you please,
a string of refrigerator cars thirty
six miles in length. loaded with Del
ia county fruit. Add to this twen-
ty miles of sugar beet cars; then
add a line of twenty miles Of cars of
the other products and you have
solid train of cars seventy-fivs
miles in length, loaded with the
shipping products of Delta county
for this one year.
The production record of Delta
county is making people sit up and
take notice.
Capital is also looking this way
and must regard the field as partio-
ularly inviting.
The great crops this year of fruit,
sugar beets, potatoes, alfalfa and
grains, have proven to the railroad
that better service. more equipment
and improved roadbed conditions are
necessary.
Hence the broad-guag aging of the
Marshall pass division is being dis
cussed. a new depot has been prom
ised Delta, and many new locomo-
tives, with hundreds of cars, have
been ordered to handle the products
OF the Western Slope.
In addition to this railroad in
provement, there will doubtless ba
constructed new short lines over Sur
face Creek and cutoff lines con-
structed wherever they will shorten
the distance to markets our pro-
ducts must reach.
The season is proving, too, that
the future acreage of beets will be
far too large for a single factory.
and Delta will come in for the local
factory she has for a number of
years coveted, and which will add
another million dollars to her prop
erty list, aside from giving work
to several hundred additional pec-
pie.
With the flood of money that must
flow in from this years enormous
crops, debts will be paid, NOR Cages
lifted and there will be an ample
surplus for many new farm houses
barns. storage buildings and the
many such improvements go to per-
many such improvements which go
to perfect this class of country.
BY the county and state, new
bridges are to be built across many
streams. new roads graded and all
county roads improved.
BY the completion of the In
compahgre reclamation project, on
which about So, 100000 have already
been expended, thousands of new
acres will be watered and made into
sister farms with those that have
already astonished the world with
their constant production.
With the things already men-
toned. there is room for many 9TH
ers. Canning factories. alfalfa mil
ling and kindred industries could
be made to flourish as well here Us
elsewhere, as in no section do finer
canning products grow. while our
alfalfa fields are not only the de-
light of their owners, but of all
beholders.
Is it any wonder that Delta coun-
ty has won and easily holds the
title of the Banner County of the
United States" for productiveness?
And in this short story only a
part has been told.

MOTHER AND GIRL
JAILED FOR THEFT
DIAMOND TAKEN FROM A PIN.
Sheriff Williams Made a Search of
Trunks and Found Much Stolen
Property, But Could Not Lo-
cate the Diamond.

Mrs. Anna Keck, a comely little
woman about 3S to 40 years old and
her daughter, Neaur.ne, / 6. who were
employed at the home OF Mr. and
Mrs. ]. E. Hanson on Rogers mesa,
for some months past, are prison
ers in the county Jail awaiting the
termination of a hearing in the To-
cal courts. which will determine
what penalty shall be imposed upon
them for the crime OF theft.
The two women were placed un-
der arrest by officers of Grand
Junction as they stepped from the
evening train in that city last Fri
day on advices from the sheriff of
this county. and it is stated that
both strongly maintained their in
nocence of the charges as tears
flowed freely and they faced the
walls OF a Grand valley prison.
Mrs. Keck and daughter decided
TO give up their work at the Han
eon home last Thursday and return
20 their old home in California
They put in some little time pack
ibg up their personal effects for the
trip and Mrs. Hanson gave not a
thought TO the possibility of nim-
BILE fingers in slowing away items
not their own. until they had gone
and she noticed the absence of a
diamond setting from an Eastern
Star pin which was present TO
her from the local order.
She then notified officers here of
the theft. gave a meagre description
OF the two women, and 1t was soon
learned that they were on the Mont
rose-Grsnd Junction train and due
ip Grand junction about 8 SO Thurs
day evening. The officers of that
city were Instructed TO be ON the
watch for the pair and they were
taken as above stated.
Sheriff Williams went down to
Grand Junction and after landing
the prisoners in Delta Saturday.
made Though search of their bag
gage but failed to locate the miss
ing diamond. Other goods. however.
belonging to Mrs. Hanson and identi-
fled here by her. were taken from
Mrs. Keck's trunk. These were ex-
pensive laces. uncut linen. table
linen. silk hose. sheets, pillow cases
and plush hat.
Mrs. Keck had firmly protested
her innocence OF the theft until
these discoveries were made and she
then reversed her decision and as
sumed all responsibility. Her daugh-
ter. she said, had nothing whatever
to do with the stolen goods.
\ preliminary hearing was had in
Justice Fairbanks court at .: 80 Sat
urday afternoon. when the fair
prisoners were held In the sum of
$500 bond for continued hearing
tc be held yesterday. This continu-
alton was taken with the hope that
the missing diamond might be re-
covered. The women were unable to
furnish the required bond and were
thereupon returned to jail to re-
main until the September term of
district court.

HUMAN MACHINE
VIII Not Run True aud Strong
Day After Day
Under the Unnatural Strain of
Modern City Life.
DEBILITY THE RESULT
New Tonic Introduced in This
Country to Combat Trouble.
Little Happiness For An Indi-
vidual Feeling Dependent.

In a recent interview one of the
physicians who are introducing the re-
markable new tonic "Tona Vita to the
American public, had this to say:
1.-The manner of living in the larger
cities of the United States is such that
perfect health is almost impossible;
the human machine will not run true
and strong day after day with its vi
tally continually being sapped by the
constant nervous strain. Irregular
hours, hastily eaten food, the wear and
tear and rush of city life, are largely
responsible for the immense amount of
dull, listless, half-sick people of the
present generation. Debility or
rundown condition as it is called, is
everywhere. Half the people see IN
street cars, restaurants, theaters or on
the street are Enthusiastically in a de-
bilitated condition, with their nerves
in such a state that they either wish to
lie down and rest or rush after some
excitement.
stream of nervous debilitated people
as I have since 1 began my present
work, can tell a man or woman in this
condition at glance. 1 wish to en-
phatically state that the number of de-
bilitated people in the larger Ameri-
can cities is appalling.
fiona Vita the medicine I am
helping to Introduce, is to combat this
condition. I believe it to be the best
preparation ever before sold to the
public, in that it is Immediately effec-
tive in case of debility and other trou-
bles that go hand in hand with this
disease"
You can not hope to enjoy life or
meet with much success if you are
tired all the time have little ambition,
and feel continually depressed in mind
and body. Every half-sick, wornout
man or woman, owes 1t to themselves
and their family, to try 'TOna Vita. II
the tonic does not make life more
worth living. and bring back the
healthy, energetic spirit. that is now
lacking, the price Is refunded The
Arnold Drug company, 523 Kansas
avenue, has the agency for '.Tona
Vita" in Topeka; also for Lees Rhu-
barb Laxative, the purest and best
family Laxative on the market. Lees
Rhubarb Laxative will not injure the
most delicate constitution. 1t is ideal
for children.

Easy Aids to Good Looks
ella Ellis in the Arch.)

after motoring or golfing the hair
may be dusty-with no time for wash
ing the head. In this dilemma you
will find a dry shampoo good
friend. Put four ounces of powdered
orris root in fruit jar, add an origi-
nal package of therox and mix to-
gether. Sprinkle a little on the head
and brush through the hair. Therox
removes dust, oil and dandruff, and
leaves the hair light, fluffy and easy
to do up.
"Disfiguring wild hairs can be
made to vanish quickly from face or
forearms by applying delatone paste,
made by mixing powdered delatone
with water. Cover the hairy surface
with this paste for minute or two,
then remove, wash the skin, and the
hairs will be gone.
'Short and thin eyelashes detract
from otherwise beautiful eyes. Weak
and straggly lashes can be strength
ened if plain pyroxin be applied to the
lash roots with thumb and forefin-
ger. Thin eyebrows always improve
with daily applications of pyroxin.
"A complexion can not be dainty if
the skin is shining from perspiration.
A complexion beautifier that will not
rub off or show like powder is made
easily by dissolvfng an original pack
age of mayatone in a half-pint of
witch hazel. This holds and does not
smear. Gently massage with this So
luton daily, and the skin will be soft
and satiny, velvety and smooth

HIGH LIVING AND
POOR NOURISHMENT
You Do Not Get the Full Value from the Food You
Processes Of Digestion and Assimilation Are Working Perfectly

When your food does not nourish
you, the blood is thin or impure. I'm
less the blood is pure, assimilation,
the final step of digestion, is imper-
fectly done and the body poorly
nourished. Every day instances of
lack of nourishment because of thin
or impure blood are seen in children,
who eat almost continually yet do not
grow; in convalescents from the grip,
fever. or some other serious disease,
who remain pale, weak and debilitat-
ed; in persons who are run down
through overwork, worry or grief and
are unable to get back their strength.
Before the body can be properly
nourished, the blood must first be
cleansed, built up and made fit to
work. DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People will do this more quickly
and effectively than any other medi-
cine. They contain the very elements
which the thin blood lacks. Not only
do they strengthen the stomach but
they build up the blood so that it gets
full nourishment from the food.
In the case of Mrs. z. s. Reynolds,
of Paris. Mo-, stomach trouble fol-
lowed an attack of the grip. She says:
IA few years ago L began to have
trouble with my stomach. It followed
a severe attack of the grip and lasted
for over two years. My stomach was
so weak that I always had to be
careful what I ate. Otherwise my
stomach would distress me greatly.
I had palpitation of the heart with
shortness of breath. I had dizzy spells
and was q great sufferer from chronic
constipation.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1912-07-12

tried many remedies but receiv-
ed no benefit and began to doubt if 1
ever would get relief. I read about
the case of woman at ST. Joseph
who was cured by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and I started u.s.
ing them. In very short time 1 no.
t1ced an Improvement. 1 took the
pills for some time and have since
been in good health. l can truthfully
say that DR.. Williams Pink Pills made
me well and cannot speak too high
ly of then.''
In deciding what to do for your
stomach trouble, distrust any treat
ment which claims to cure you with
out building up the blood. Medicines
which digest the food in the stomach
do very little good because they don't
provide for the assimilation of the
food. Only when the blood is pure
can digested food be taken up and
made to nourish the body DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People will
make new blood and will cure your
recomm ended for anaemic or blood
less, rundown conditions and during
convalescence and old. age.
