A Month of War

The European war. that is, the war exclusive of
the operations between Austria and Serva and the
military preparations of Russia, began month

of France begun the border between those
two countries and which appears to have been
feint rather than attack. Great Britain was yet

expected it would slip. The neutrality of Belgium
had already been disregarded. Germany explained
because it lay the easiest and most direct
route to the heart of France. 1t is quite APP
parent that that route chosen, not with Paris
the first objective but because it afforded the
most direct of controlling the north of France,
shutting off British reinforcements, for although
Great Britain not involved, Germany knew that

DANIEL A. CAMFIELD
DIES in new YORK
GREELEY MAN WAS PROMOTER
OF THE IRRIGATION PROJECT
NORTH OF HERE

Yesterday morning Daniel A. Cam
field, prominent promoter of Greeley,
Colo, died of apoplexy in New York
city He was stricken while walking
on the street and died while being
taken to hospital. Mr.. Camfield had
been in the east for only three days
when he was stricken. Mr.. Camfield
was one of the first men in the coun-
try to concoct and carry out schemes
for irrigating the dry western lands.
His first project was the promotion
of the Greeley-Poudre irrigation plan.
He was SO years oldaand he had lived
S5 years of that time in, Greeley.
M. Camfield was born in Provi-
dences r. I. He began his business
career as a grocery clerk in that town
but soon moved out to Greeley, set
tling in that place when 1T possessed
population Of only 1900. He had
few dollars but by scrupulously saw
ing the wages he earned as ranch
hand he was enabled to get enough
to enter the stoekraising business.
He prospered in this line. possessing
at one time a farm of $4,000 acres.
He was heavily interested in several
irrigation systems, chief among which
were the Bijou, Julesburg, Empire,
Jackson and Riverside along the trib-
utaries of the South Platte river the
Montezuma system in southwest Col
orado, the Eden system in Wyoming
and the Camfield project north of
this city. At the time of his death
MIR. Camfield was president Of the
Farmers Trust company of Greeley,
owner of the Camfield hotel property
and a large stockholder in the Home
Gas and Electric company He is
survived by a widow, son, John, and
three daughters, Edna, Elizabeth and
Gladys.
Mr.. Camfield was well known in
this city. A few years ago he under
took, through the Camfield Develop
ment company, to build what is
known as the Camfield project, which
would water $4,000 acres on the Las
Vegas grant In advance payment
he received large number of acres
of the land surrounding the dam.
After the work had proceeded for
some time Camfield gave it up claim
ing that he had not funds sufficient
to complete it. He offered to give
back the land if the grant board would
refund to him $65,OOO he had spent
on the work. At the time of his death
the land was being held in trust by D.
n. Hoskins, the local banker, pending
the result of the litigation now pend
ing by the grant board for its erecov-
cry. The grant board is seeking also
to collect Camfield's 100000 bond. It
was intended, if the project were un-
dertaken by another contractor, to set
tie with Camfield, according to the
general opinion here

HOW TO PREVENT
 ACID STOMACHS AND
 FOOD FERMENTATION
Bv a Stomach Specialist.

As a specialist who has spent many years in the study and treatment of stomach troubles. I have been forced to the conclusion that most people who complain of stomach trouble possess stomachs that are absolutely healthy and normal. The real trouble, that which causes all the pain and diffi- culty. is excessive acid in the stomach
 aggravated by food Fermentation Fly peracidity irritates the delicate lining of the stomach and food ferme causes wind which distends the stom- ach abnormaily, causing that full bloated feeling. Thus both acid and ferm entation interfere with and retard the process of digestion. The stomach is usually healthy and normal but irri- tated almost past endurance by these foreign elements-acid and wind. In all such cases-and they comprise over 90 per cent. of all stomach difficulties the first and only step necessary is to neutra1ize the acid and stop the fer mentation by taking in a little warm or cold water immediately after eating
 from one to two teaspoonfuls of bisur- ated magnesfa, which is doubtless the best and only really effective antacid and food corrective known. The acid will be neutralized and the fermenta- tlon stopped almost instantly, and your stomach will at once proceed to diges the food in a healthy, normal manner
 Be sure to ask your druggist for the bisurated magnesia as I have found other forms utterly lacking in its pc culiarly valuable properties-F J. G.
