A dozen different measures have
been drafted in the last thirty days,
all containing the essential features
of the act presented. Finally the
health committee of the house step
ped in and took over the task Of
framing the kind of a law the state
needs. The committee has been

in removing freckles and giving a
clear, beautiful complexion that it is
sold under guarantee to refund the

Don't hide your freckles under a

move them. Even the first few appli-
cations should show wonderful i'm

may be of interest to some of our readers
to know THAT the Imperial Valley is a

many years ago it was desert. Today
it is fertile farming district and strange
to say lone of the principal crops is cot

adapted to the production of this staple.
Irrigation prevents drought, the dry air
prevents mildew and the heat kills the
weevil. " lille the average crop in other
cotton growing States is about ITS pounds
per acre, that in the Imperial Valley and
other favored localities in California is
400 pounds per acre. The State produce
ed last year more than $4,000, 900 pounds
and this cotton is of the finest quality,
being pure white and having long fibre.

LOOK AFTER HOME GROUNDS
Farmhouse Is Attractive or the Re-
verse According to the State
of Its Surroundings.

Farmers just now have plenty of
troubles: they are short Of help. and
much of the little help they are able
to obtain is poor and unreliable. The
women of the family are working like
beavers; in fact the women on many
of the farms along the roadside were
helping the men in addition to doing
their housework. The plucky spirit of
the women is unconquerable.
Where there is successful farm
generally, if the real truth can be ar
rived at, very much of the credit will
be due to the spirit of woman, who
In times of encouragement insists on
another and greater effort and who
sees that the men are up and doing
daily.
If women knew how cheaply and
with what little labor the home
grounds could be improved they would
see that the men made the necessary
effort, or more likely would themselves
do the work.
A house in the country, standing out
prominently. surrounded only by broad
fields, swept by the blasts of winter
winds and consumed by the fire Of
the summer sun, with the barns and
scape, is surely a lonesome place, to
be avoided. There is no comfort there.
