BLACK CANYON AFFAIRS
IN VERY GOOD SHAPE

For the past week or so persistent
rumor that the reclamation service
had not fully released the lands of the
Black Canyon District and was intend
ing to take the matter of reclamation
of these lands in hand Immediately,
has been afloat.
In last weeks edition of one of the
local papers appeared an article from
the pen of Mr.. Clambey which stirred
up some comment because OF mis-
comprehension.
These things come to the settlers on
any project. As a matter of fact the
affairs of the Black Canyon were new
er in such good shape as at this mo-
ment The government is not think
ing of taking up the work OF reclama-
ton in the lands covered by the
Black Canyon. The only reason that
the district was formed at all was be-
cause the government would not gel
to this part Of the work for some
seven years yet-and the settlers die
not want to wait. The government ha!
released all of the lands within tn,
district and the district will begir
work this fall If the present plan'
materialize.
As for Mr.. Clambey's article, thu
gentleman will. if he closely examines
the facts OF the case. find that tn
sum of $3.50 includes all charge
and good contingent margin; it is |
conservative figure, and the amour
Necessary to do the work will not ruI
above the mark set, unless some grav
unforeseen circumstances arise.
Che directors of the district are abi
gentlemen, vitality interested, and in
defatigable in their endeavor to fur
Their the interests of the district. TIL
settlers may rest assured that their in
terests are in good hands.

TELEPHONE co. SPENDS
$55,00O IN CALDWELL

The Mountain States Telegraph &
Telephone Company has large corps
of men busily engage in making ex-
tensive improvements, practically re-
placing the entire system in and
around the city. The company had
originally planned to spend about
$25,OOO0O here but after careful
survey decided that in view of the GER
tain growth of the community in the
next year or so, the additional invest
ment would be more than justified.

CANADA'S PROSPERITY.

The New York Times Of March %,
da's progress, says:
AT the present moment eight ship
loads Of European immigrants are
afloat for Canada, while there are
signs that the outward movement
which is customary with us during
labor troubles will be marked this
year. There is no such startling rec
ord Of our loss to Canada. Our citi-
zens quietly slip over the border in
groups or trainloads, but their going
is not advertised
There is no mystery why Canada
Is the good thing the United States
used to be. 1t Is because Canada is
following In its neighbor's footsteps
that it is repeating the fortunate ex-
perience which it's neighbor is envy
ing, even while deliberately turning
Its back on the teachings of the past.
fortnight ago the Dominion budget
speech reported the unprecedented
surplus of $39,00O,OOO. and on Thurs
day the Government passed through
the Committee on Supply credits of
$3S,00O,000 for railways and canals.
With this assistance the railways
themselves are both enabled and COM
PEELED to increase their facilities. Ac-
cordingly we find a single road allot-
ting ten millions for work of it's own.
Naturally the Canadian newspapers
contain announcements calling for
fifty thousand men for construction
work. This influx is apart from those
Americans who go with money in their
pockets obtained by cashing in their
high-prfced American lands.
"A st. Paul dispatch says that with
in fortnight two thousand carloads
of farm animals and machinery have
passed toward Canada, the property
of men who expect to pay for their
farms with the first crop"

old, she had eczema and rash very
badly. l noticed that her face and
body broke out very suddenly. thick.
and red as a coal of fire. l did not
know what to do. The doctor ordered
CASTLE soap and powders but they did
no good. She would scratch, as 1t
itched, and she cried, and did not
sleep for more than a week. One day
l saw in the paper the advertisement
of the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment, so l got them and tried
them at once. My baby's face was as
a cake of sores.

fectly, and her skin is now pretty and
fine through using them. l also use
the Cuticura Soap today, and will
continue to, for it makes lovely skin.

Remedies. They are good for all
sores, and the Cuticura Soap is also
good for shampooing the hair. for

To begin with, If your hair is dry.
harsh. given to letting unlovely wisps
of uneven lengths stick out round
your face, and at the nape of your
neck, do not shampoo too frequently
Instead, shake equal parts of powdered
orris root and cornmeal into it once
week, and then, with soft, fine in
sants' brush, take 1t all out again.
Some women use merely dry starch
and are satisfied when they see the
powder that went in SO white coming
out dark gray. They know that
their hair has been cleansed. This
process over, dip the finger tips in
olive oil or rub them along a piece OF
cocoa butter. Carefully and gently
massage the scalp till every part has
benefited by the emollient. Then.
take another soft baby's brush (not
the one that cleansed your hair), and
which you have divided your tresses
many, many times.
The Irregularities of length always
found when weak or neglected hair
Is beginning to be strengthened by
care can only be dealt with, almost
hour by hour, after the following
fashion: Have innumerable tiny hair
pins matching your hair. Ii that is
dark, fine black pins will do. If 1t is
extremely blond, you should purchase
the tiny silvered invisible pins-they
can be procured. If your tresses are
any of the various shades of brown,
use bronze or gold invisible hairrins.
Curl the recalcitrant locks and then
skewer them to the longer and more
solid masses with these pins.
or course, If you have to make a
hasty toilet curling irons must be re-
sorted to. But soft piece of old
muslin, or a kid curler-these are of
various qualities, and the more ex-
pensiye are many times worth the diff
ference in price-will produce a more
natural curl and one that stays in
longer. Some people are able to keep
these straying wisps in pretty curIs
merely by steaming them. Others
dampen their fingers just before they
begin to dress in the morning and
twist their little bits of hair round
and round the dampened fingers, leav-
ing them thus twisted for half an
hour. This produces the most natural
and lasting curl OF all.
Further remedies for dry locks are
the following emollients, sparingly
used:
