Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates general weakness

Denver-To prevent bean producers
OF the state being deprived of part OF
their profits through the operations oil
spectators, an organization known as
the Colorado Bean Growers ASsocia-
ton was formed at conference held
at the United States office of mar
kets. The object of the association is
to gather reliable information rs to
crop and market conditions so mem
hers may obtain reasonable price for
their product.
Colorado will be one OF the big bean
producing states OF the union this
year, according to an authoritative
statement made to the conference by
Prof Alvin Kezer OF the Fort Collins
State Agricultural college. He esu-
mated that the state would plant from
10000 TO 1870 900 acres. which should
produce 100000 bushels. This is
conservative estimate figured on
basis of ten bushels TO the acre the ir-
rigated districts having frequently
produced up to sixteen bushels. Last
year the state planted only 10000
acres which yielded $4,000 bushels.
The organization is patterned close
ly after the Michigan Bean Growers
Association, with which 1t hopes to
cooperate and which is credited with
having saved its members 100000.
Within a few weeks a county organ
ization will be formed and ramifica-
tions will ultimately extend into every
township in the state,
