Leonard Faus started on his vaca-
lion this week. He expects to make
several short trips. His first trip was
to Wrights ranch on the upper Rio
Grande.
The grocery department received
their first large shipment of water
melons this week. These melons
were part of carload and have been
proving very good melons.
The cherry crop according to re
ports is about over.
Mr.. Fornwald left Wednesday for
few days fishing trip at Wright's
ranch above Creede.
We had shipment of butter to
send out this week to the Process
factory. This is the first surplus we
have had for some time. If this had
all been first class butter we would
not have had this
The store has the addition of sew
eral punches of sweet peas each day
now. From reports we would Judge
that the sweet peas raised in this
country are superior.
Our buyers will leave for the east
in the next day or two now. A large
part of our fall merchandise has been
bought and in the house, but there
is always quite little novelty stuff
and new things that we have to pick
up by going into the market.
A shipment of all kinds and styles
of oil cans was added to the hard
ware department this week. Our
shelf hardware department is very
complete and we-ca fill your needs
very nicely in this line.

Struck Oil

Jackson was drilling a water
well for Mrs. Buck Ramsey on
Ramsey Branch just East of Ar
temus, the other day and struck
a rich oil and gas well at 70 feet.
1t is producing 8 barrel a day and
not pumping. 1t is thought that
this oil, though shallow. will be
a producer. Some say that if
this well was pumped it would be
a fine producer. The gas is very
strong and it is said by many
that it will be piped into Artemus
for lighting and heating pur-
poses.

Does your back ache, feel weak

Do you suffer headaches, lam
guor and depression?
Is the urine discolored, pas

The kidneys may be calling for
help.
Weak kidneys cannot do their
work.
Give them the help they need,
To cure kidney backache you
must cure the kidneys.
Use a tested and proven kidney
remedy.
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood
the test.
Convincing proof of merit in
the following endorsement:

liamsburg, KY, says: MY eX-
perience with Doan's Kidney
Pills has been such, that | rec
ommend them for kidney trouble.
The action of my kidneys was
irregular and often accompanied
by pain. My ba * also bothered
me and felt all worn-out. When
! heard about Doan's Kidney
Pills, used them. They made
me feel better in every way"

Horses Exceed
Autos In Value.

William D. Hunt, Brookline,
Mass, treasurer of the Mass
achusetts Protective Association
for Horses, recently said that the
value of the horses and mules in
the United States is three times
as great as the value of automo-
biles.
III all the horses died tomor-
row we should all probably
starve to DEATH" said Mr.. Hunt.
I'VE depend upon the horse for
what we eat and for what we
wear"
His statistics showed that as
reported by the Department of
Agriculture there were on jan
uary /, 1916, q, 166, 900 horses
on farms, 4,565, 600 mules and
