A recent issue of the Collegeport( Tex
as) New Era, has the following to say
concerning the orange orchard owned
by Chas. Lee of BaraboO.
I'VE were out in the country the first
of the week and our course taking US
past the orange orchards of Mr.. Charles
Lee and Mr. J. Walter, we took time
to notice slightly the condition of these
orchards. Mr. Lees orchard appeared
to be in a thrifty growing condition with
a good growth made this year. Mr.. Wal
ter's orchard also appeared in excellent
condition, although the thorough cult
walton given by Mr.. Walter together
with the excessively wet fall has kept
his trees growing too late and prevent
e / them from becoming dormant quite
as early as would have been desired but
4 excellent growth had been made and
Mr.. Walter informed US that several
oranges were grown in his orchard this
year on trees set out last spring
These orchards convince US that this
locality has bright future as an orange
producing country, and we think that
there should be at least part of every
tract or parcel of land in this locality
devoted to raising this fruit. -

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required TO Win the
Peoples Confidence.

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that 80 paany products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop
out Of sight and are soon forgotten?
The reason is plain-the article did not
fulfil the promises of the manufacturer.
This applies more particularly to
medicine. A medicinal preparation that
has real curative value almost sells
itself, as like an endless chain of sys-
tenn the remedy is recommended by
those who have been benefited to those
who are in need Of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
preparation | have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for
in almost every case it shows excellent
results, as many Of my customers tes-
tify. No other kidney remedy that
know Of has so large sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands wi @
have used the preparation, the success
of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to-
the fact that it fulfils almost every wish
in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder
diseases, corrects urinary troubles and
neutralizes the uric acid which causes
rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle of
Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton N. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention the
