EXPERT ADVISE
BY WEBSTER

Speaking of NJ. H. Webster, who has
teen giving some expert addresses at
the September meetings of the county
farm centers, correspondent from
Mesquite Lake for the Imperial En-
terprise, makes the following obser-
vatiOns:
"Mr. Webster's talk was fine and to
the point. The writer has heard him
give much the same lecture in the
east. He put especial emphasis on
the fact of better handling if we ex-
pect better COWS. Mr.. Webster is a
Woodson county, Kansas, boy. After
graduating at the Kansas State Agri-
cultural College, he went to Ames.
Iowa. He was then called to posi-
tion in the Agricultural College of his
home state, then to position in the
Agricultural Department at Washing
ton While in this capacity he was
sent to Denmark to study dairy condi-
tons in that country. Later he re-
turned to Kansas Agricultural College
rs dean of the experiment station. He
later gave this up to take up the pos
ition as associate editor of Hoard's
Oairyman He served two years in
that capacity, when he resigned to ac-
.cept a most lucrative position in the
biggest creamery concern in CalifOr-
ria. Mr.. Webster will be in the valley
all the winter, and we hope to hear
more Of him on the lecture platform.
We would like to hear him lecture on
Danish dairying and. especially on
how the Danish people built up their
present dairy breed of cattle"

CONQUERS RHEUMATISM
In A VERY FEW DAYS

1t is an established fact that one
half teaspoonful Of Rheuma taken
once a day has driven the pain and
agony from thousands of racked,
crippled and despairing rheumatics
during the last five years.
Powerful and sure, quick acting,
yet harmless; Rheuma gives blessed
relief almost at once. The magic
name has reached every hamlet in
the land and there is hardly a drug
gist anywhere who cannot tell you
of almost marvellous cures.
If you are tortured with rheuma-
tism or sciatica, you can get bottle
of Rheuma from The Clark & Brain

than SO cents, with the understand
ing that if it does not completely
drive rheumatic poisons from your
system-money back.

(By curator SChurr.)
Many people came from out of town
TO see the big parade and do honor to
the returned soldier boys last Saturday
awaited themselves of the opportunity
OF visiting the museum Of natural his
Tory and art at the New Britain Insti-
tute. Between 8 and o'clock over
zoO people crowded into the museum
and the total number of visitors for
the day was 5S7. When the parade
passed the Institute, the windows of
the museum were filled with cheering
and app1auding children and adults.
Many of the visitors from near by
towns were loud in their praise over
the display Of natural specimens and
works of art. A common expression
was eve did not dream that New Brit
ain had such an institution One
gentleman made q remark which every
art lover in the city should take pride
in. He said, "the paintings you have
here are on a par with thase shown in
the best art museums in the country"
1t is good to hear such remarks AL
though the museum is not as large as
some cities can boast of it has a won
derfully fine display and what it pos
sesses is of the best Better still, the
museum is growing, growing rapidly,
and within q few months will take it's
place among some of the larger in
situations. We take pride in our mu-
scum and it's growth and feel graft
fed that the stranger who comes with
in our gates can enter this institution
