did not appropriate money for the
states part of the work, but realizing
the Importance of the work at this
point, the government stationed a man
there and the agricultural college, out
of its general funds, bought a team
of horses, a wagon. buggy, pillow, lister,
disc, and a one-horse cultivator. A
shack was constructed from an old
cattle shed and in this the man in
charge of the station patched for four
years, keeping the horses in a rear
room in bad weather. During these
four years the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture paid the salary of
the man while the college paid part
of the few expenses for maintenance.
In the spring of 1911 the state Iegis-
lature appropriated $500 for equip
ment and maintenance for the two
succeeding years of 1912 and
1912513. This money was expended
on machinery, horses, the erection of
buildings, and in preparing more land
for eXperim entail purposes. While this
amount is just about one-half what is
generally recognized as the amount
needed to put a station of this char

SERVE SUBPOENAS
 FOR GRAND JURY
ONE MEMBER OF NEW GRAND JURY TAKES ADVANCE STEPS
 FOR INFORMATION.
Evidently Wanted .o be Certain That Some Witnesses Would be Pres ent On Opening Day to
 Give Testimony.

Summons for certain witnesses to attend the grand jury room on the opening day of court, were served yesterday by Sheriff Williams and his deputies, under instructions from Prosecuting Attorney Witt, who af' ter conference with Circuit Judge Gotham had issued the subpoenas.
 Tae summons. it was stated, were addressed to men who mad been iden. tified with the operation of club rooms in this city up to the time they were closed through the sledge hammer work of Sheriff Williams, and later more effectively closed with the passage in the state legis. Aature of the anti gambling bill, mak- ing the exhibiting of gambling de vices a felony
 1t was stated that one member of the coming grand jury had urged the issuance of the subpoenas, rather fearing that the jury might not have grist to pour through it's hopper on the opening day, and on the other hand making it certain that none of the club room operators would have other business in other localities about grand jury time.
 It was also reported that for the most part the men summoned had indicated they would be willing, quite willing, to appear before the grand jury and talk, and the subpoenas were for the purpose of catching them while they were in the no' ton, or rather encouraging the idea.
 It is also reported that there will be number of other subponeas issu- ed later in the week so that others who have been in a position to know great many things of interest to the grand jury might not take fishing expeditions alone about Sunday after noon.

BRIeHT's DISEASE.

We submit the following as our ideas of tae probabilities under Fdl- tons Renal Compound in Brights and kidney. disease:
 Where patients are seriously weak ened and crisis are expected, proba- bly not more than ten to twenty per cent respond. Where physicians aid by holding up the heart, increasing the eliminations, etc, the efficiency can be increased. In cases wlere the patients have from thirty to sixty days of life we look for correspond ingly better results.
 Where patients do not wait until bedridden and take the treatment on the appearance of the disease, 1t Is our belief that most cases respond with final recovery or prolongation of life.
 Albumen, casts and dropsy do noI prevent recovery, provided the renal inflammation is attacked before the heart and recuperative powers are too greatly weakened
 Fulton's Renal Compound is used both with and without physicians prescriptions. The motive of. the Renal Compound being to relax the kidney (the Old School having nota- ing to reduce the inflammed kid- neys) it will be seen that the heart, eliminative and tonic treatment usu- ally prescribed in Bright's and kid ney disease do not conflict but are often required in extreme cases. It can be had at Sorrells Drug Go.
 Ask for pamphlet or write Joan J. Fulton Company, San Francisco. Cal We invite correspondence with phy- sicians who have obstinate cases and desire patients not improving the third week to write us.
