The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that is
Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitu-
tional disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing it's work. The
proprietors have 80 much faith in its
curative powers that they offer One

ails to cure. Send for list of testi-

Fancy Fruit Pays.

Outing for October, says under
the caption, "a Real Orchardist, )"
Julian A. Dimock, author of "Outdoor
Photography, has taken upon himself
double responsibility, wife and an
apple orchard incidentally he is
demonstrating to the farmers of YER
mont that that state is one of the
greatest in the Union in point of ap-
pie growing possibilities.
Mr. Dimock's methods are out of
the well worn rut. His apples go di-
rect to the consumer and are sold
through advertisements in current
magazines. The apples are all care
fully graded, packed in boxes of from
"a to 100 at a price of from 81 to SO
box. How many farmers in YER
mont get three cents apiece for even
their best fruit?
Those who do not know Mr.. Dimock
will be surprised to learn that the
man who is showing that Vermont
need not be step behind Oregon and
Washington in apple growing is not
to the manor born. AS an illustrator
of magazine stories and books on out
door subjects, he has no superior. His
work has always stood in class by
itself as his apple growing now does.
What he has done with apples, how
ever, can be duplicated by every farm
er in the state who will apply the
same amount of enterprise, foresight
and ingenuity, all qualities for which
Vermont has so long been noted.
Others have come into the state and
showed profit in specialization. Helen
Dodd writing in Outing on her eXpe-
riences in sugaring in the Green
Mountain hills said, eve have per-
sistently followed every hint of better
methods until we have advanced the
pr ce of our product 400 per cent. We
sold our first years sugar without
grading at 10 cents pound. Now we
make three grades, soft sugar, cake
and cream in one pound boxes, and get
40 cents for the best"
Another specialization crop in Yer
mont, one as yet scarcely dreamed of
by the majority of farmers is that of
raising late season crops, especially
strawberries to come into market
when prices are high and just before
the produce has passed from consider
alton for another year. The farms on
higher attitudes in Vermont are adj
mirably adapted to catch the market
on this flood tide. Yet one will travel
far among them without seeing more
than hay and potatoes with an occa-
sional field of oats. These are the
foundation upon which numbering has
been carried on and now that so many
sections have given over numbering
\ the farms are going back to wild land
Experiments have proved they coulc
be put to far better use.
The soil is unsurpassed in any
state of the Union. The climate is
suitable for growing almost any crop
Drought is unknown. Growing thi:
is altitude, delaying maturity just lone
enough to catch the crest of the wave
of high prices. 1t is like a specia
privilege. Vermont is full of sucf
special privilege, unrecognized, un
claimed, even spurned.
In Vermont the advantages of soil
climate, strategic location for agri
cultural specialization are combined
in degree not found elsewhere
When will the farmers of Vernon
awaken to their opportunity?

that the appropriation during the
last democratic administration. ol
1909 and 1910, there was appro-
priated for the agricultural board
the sum of $1i9,372.3S, and in addi-
tion thereto $4,000 to the agricul,
tural board for the aid of annual
tairs, for the promotion OF agricul'
ture, horticulture and stock grow
ing industry.
Every dollar OF these appropria-
tions was paid During the second
democratic administration, of l9l
and 1912, there was appropriated to
the agricultural board the sum oil
$225,O0O, which, however, includes
$4,000 for the Fort Lewis school
and $4,000 tor the horticultural
and forestry school at Grand juno
ton.
So you can readily see that dur
ing these democratic Administrations
we have done more for the agrlcnl-
tural board. and the agricultural m
terests, by far than any OF the al
ministrations of the republicans. In
other words. over and above the
mill tax levy which goes to the Ag,
ricultural college, the agricultural
board received during the three re-
publican administrations OF 1905
1904, 1905, 1906, 1907 and 1905
according to the treasurer. but sSs,-

democratic administration OF l9o'

ceived $119,372.3S, besides the APP
propriations for fairs, and even our
ing the present administration the
agricultural board has received thus
tar $55,OOO upon their appropria-
ton of $225,OOO.
In addition to that the agricni-
tural board has received in the IN
crease from the mill levy OF 10 per
cent more in the democratic admin
istration than in the republican aa-
ministrations. In other words Mr..
Kenehan in his speech shows tha'
the increase in appropriations over
the Peabody administration, or isoo
and 1904. amounted to over 3oO per
cent.
1t is very difficult to meet all OF
these increased appropriations pu'
we are doing our best for the Asr'-

You say in your letter that po--

Num-. Colo, Feb. 16, 1912.
Greeley Tribune:
The citizens of Num- and vicinity
wist to thank the Minnequa Coal
| company and the citizens of Greeley
or their timely help to the home
steaders in northern Weld.
We also wish to express our
thanks and appreciation to the
Union Pacific for the free transpor-
taton of car of coal and boxes of
clothing which have been shipped
in for free distribution.
Although there has been but lit
tie help needed in the immediate
vicinity of Num- we nave been glad
to be able to help those further on.
Num- has been the distributing
center for homesteaders from eight
to 25 miles east and northeast, eN-
tending over territory ranging
few miles east and southeast of
Pierce, on the south to Carr and the
Chalk Bluffs on the north and about
25 miles east, over in the Willow
Creek district and to four or fami-
lies west of Num-.
Most of the calls for help have
been from foreigners. Some very
worthy people have been helped.
Owing to drouth and existing cir
cumstances some have been forced
to accept help.
Some in need of fuel would not
accept help unless they would be al
lowed to pay for 1t later. This we
told them they could do and it
would be placed in the bank to start
a relief fund for future needs. This
is an independent spirit which we
are glad to see exist and which
would show they would not accept
help unless they were forced to do
So
AS the homesteaders have ex-
pressed their gratitude to us l wish
in behalf of the homesteaders to use
this means of extending their graft
tude and appreciation to those who
have so nobly come to their assist
ance in their time OF need. In all
about 35 families have received

One Of the reasons for the embar-
ressment of the state treasurer now
in the payment of moneys. is due to
the tact that the people voted last
fall year ago to pay the old out
standing warrants, which had been
issued by previous republican admin
intrations, to the extent of two mil
lion one hundred and fifteen thous-
and dollars The interest on that
amounts to $l26,0OO each biennial
term, and that has to be paid be
fore even the salaries of the supreme
court judges are paid.
The entire legislature republicans
and democrats, by unanimous vote,
insisted that court of appeals De
created, at an expense of S7S.oOO Tor
the biennial term. l did not sign
the bill, but in view of the universal
demand for it. I let it become a law
The people voted, in November'
1910. to increase the salaries OF the
legislators, which takes $37 900 au-
ditional out of the revenues. the
legislature unanimously voted lot
the creation of home for mental
detectives and appropriated Sll7,-
coo for the same. The United States
government offered to the state oil
Colorado the Fort Lewis buildings
together with 5000 acres OF lahl
underlaid with fine coal: the lana
was estimated to be worth from one
to three million dollars. The ol1er
was made upon the condition that
the state of Colorado establish
school at Fort Lewis. The legisla-
ture, by unanimous vote OF both re-
publicans and democrats, voted an
appropriation of 100000 for the es-
tablishment of that school.
The legislature unanimously ap-
propriated 100000 for the establish
ment of a public accountary bureau
by which the books of every state
and county officer are examined bS
experts, and is saving in defalcatlohs
and misappropriations hundreds OF
thousands of dollars.
These, and other appropriation
we're made for most excellent pur-
noses. but all of them are burdens
never before borne by an admins
tration. A.
MIR. Kenehan feels that. with the
railroads threatening not to pay
their taxes, because they claim the
assessments were too high, and WIN
MANY cases now pending in the su-
preme court involving many thous
apds of dollars. he is not justineu
in advancing money until 1t Is re-
ceiyed by him. or he knows Ger
tainly that 1t will be paid into the
treasury. ~ of
feel quite confident that all oi
the third class appropriations win
be- paid. He has now paid t~ehts-
five per cent of them and ! nope
that he will be able to see his way
clear to give an increased amouh'
within n short time. a.
The treasurer informs me thai
there is now in the treasury iuhI
