CALOMEL SALIVATES
AND MAKES YOU SICK
Acts like dynamite on a slug

a DAVIS work

There's nc reason why & person should
take sickening, salivating calomel when
60 cents buys large bottle OF Dodson's
Liver Tone-a perfect substitute for call
Cnel. -.-- --.r
1t is a pleasant. vegetable liquid which
will start your liver just as surely rs
calomel, but it doesn't make you sick and
cannot salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is per-
fectly harmless.
CaIcmel is dangerous drug. 1t is
mercury and attacks your bones. Take
a dose of nasty calomel today and you
will feel weak, sick and nauseated to-
morrow. Don't lose a days work. Take
a spoonful of Dodson's Liver Tone In
stead and you will wake up feeling
great. No more biliousness, constipa-

Liver Tone acts better than horrible

i'm Torreon is very soant and the lower
CLASSES have little if anything. They
have no work to enable them to earn
money and the supply of corn and beans
is much drawn upon. The people with

the Mexicans of the lower class follow
enough to know that they would much
rather be engaged in peaceful pursuits.
The middle classes in Torreon, as well

state of anarchy and. naturally they are

course he said, because of the reign
of terrorism he inaugurated there, but
it must be remembered that the Villa
of today is not the Villa of five years
ago. In the early part of his career he
was very liberal with the people about
him. If he got $500, say, in a raid,
he would give half of it away, but when
he began TO gather power, he seized
everything for himself. Those people,
among whom he is now, have a long
history of murders and attacks on their
women to avenge. The only hold he has

CBy Associated Press,

MEXICO CITY. March 1s.-The min
lister of war, General obregon, issued a
decree today declaring all participants in
the Columbus raid outside the law. The
decree gives the right to any citizen to
apprehend and kill if necessary the fol-
lowers of Villa who crossed the Anleri-
can frontier.
The first victim of this decree was
summarily executed in the city of Her
mosillo near which place he was captur-
ed by men who denounced him as one OF
the raiding party.
The authorities declare that the efforts
to run down the bandits will increase
with time and that the government will
not rest until all those guilty of the
crime against the United States have
been run to earth.
General Pesquira, assistant minister
of war, has been in conference with his
chief on the subject.

nually ever since the latter date. The
act of 1889 was the earliest statute
containing even suggestion of COM
prehensive dealing with the subject
of agriculture by the Federal Gov
ernment.
While the department was under
the direction of commissioner the
work became so enlarged and varied
that it was necessary to divide it into
distinct units. In 1880 congress Gre
ated six divisions-chemical, seed,
chronological, statistical, microscop-
ical, and botanical-in addition to
the Office Of the commissioner, and
experimental garden and grounds,
laboratory, museum, and library.
In 1884 a bureau of animal indus
try was created.
The first appropriation for inyesti-
cations on forestry subjects was
made in 1876. In 1886 division Of
forestry was formed to carry on this
work
In 1889 the department became an
executive department, having at its
head secretary, who occupies a
place in the Presidents cabinet. Its
functions have grown to such an ex-
tent that now they touch almost all
lines of agricultural endeavor of gen.
eral interest to the citizens Of the
United States, as we'll as other lines
of activity related to agriculture.
The units of organization of the
department have been changed from
time to time, to meet growing con-
ditions, and, as at present recognized
by Congress, are 16, composed of 10
bureaus, including the forest service
and the states relations service, four
Offices, divisions, and the library.
