Durango.--All freight and passenger
traffic on the Rio Grande Southern
between this city and Telluride has
been abandoned indefinitely owing to
the washing out of a large section OF
track by tho swollen Dolores river be-
tween Dolores and Rico.
So much Of the roadbed has been
washed away and SO rapidly is the
river rising that there Is no telling
when conditions will be normal. 1t
is feared that thousands of dollars

the young maggots make their way

blotches to appear. The maggots OF
a later brood infest the full-grown

struction in the root-house during the
winter. Celery and parsnips are also
attacked.
Preventive measures seem to be the
only remedies available. To deter the
fly from laying her eggs. the rows Of
young carrots, when ready for thin

PHYSICIAN ADVISES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

"Four years ago I had places break
out on my wrist and on my shin which
would itch and burn by spells, and
scratching them would not seem to
give any relief. When the trouble first
began. my wrist and shin itched like
poison. l would scratch those places
until they would bleed before l could
get any relief. Afterwards the places
would scale over, and the flesh un-
derneath would look red and .feverish.
Sometimes 1t would begin to itch until
1t would waken me from my sleep.
and I would have to go through the
scratching ordeal again.
Our physician pronounced 1t "dry
eczema" used an ointment which
the doctor gave me. but 1t did no good.
Then he advised me to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies. As this trouble has
been In our family for years. and 10
considered hereditary. felt anxious
to try to head 1t on. I got the Cuti-
cura Soap. Ointment and Pills. and
they seemed to be Just what needed.
THE disease was making great
headway on my system until I got
the Cuticura Remedies which have
cleared my skin Of the great pest
From the time the eczema healed four
years ago. until now, l have never felt
any Of Its pest, and am thankful to
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment which
certainly cured me. always use the
Cuticura Soap for toilet. and I hope
other sufferers from skin diseases will
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment"
