Although the sky was cloudless, q
strong equinoctal wind sprang up after
midnight last Thursday night. The
wind reached alarming proportions ir
the city, and in the Lower Valley
many apples were blown from trees.
The protecting rangesides to the
west of the valley acted as a wind
brake and prevented loss of apples in
the outlying sections of the valley.

WHAT CATARRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat Its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott's Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
rom alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.

ed will be forwarded to members of the
legislature at once. At the concluding

and passed. The board adjourned to
