Forest Fires Took Heavy
Toll During Year 1919

Albuquerque, Dec. "a. -Four
hundred and four forest fires
have occurred during the past
season in the national forests of
Arizona and New Mexico, ac-
cording to report just compiled
by the Forest Service. Fully
fifty per cent of these fires were
caused by human agency, and
approximately fifty per cent by
lightning. Among those caused
by human agency, the largest
number were set by logging
operations, and the next largest
number by campers.
These fires burned more than
six thousand acres of forest
land, caused damage of about
So, 800, and cost over $4,000 to
extinguish. One and one-fourth
million boardfeet were destroyed.
Owing to heavy rains, the past
fire season was not so destruc-
tive as the average season.
With the increasing use Of the
national forests by the public,
the Forest Service is planning
an aggressive campaign to pre-
vent the careless setting of fires,
and to prosecute those respon-
sible for such fires. The mere
fact that in a favorable season
the majority of fires are held to
a small acreage does not remove
the danger of disastrous fires in
bad seasons according to for
est service officials.

Opportunity

No other business in the world
offers such unlimited opportu-
mites for the legitimate accumu-
lation of wealth as the Ameri-
can oil industry.
No other business in the world
has so continuously and so GER
tainly returned enormous profits
to investors, and no other busi-
ness in the world has ever as
sembled for and widely dis
tributed among its supporters
50 many great fortunes.
No other business in the world
exists that having accomplished
such marvellous results still con-
tinues to offer the same won
derful opportunities for the dis
/ corning investor.
In other words, oil is the most
profitable, legitimate and essen
tial business in the world today.
It's possibilities are beyond be-
lief, were it not for the facts
which lie before the interested.
Forty-nine thousand for one!
That is what the original in
vestors in the Paraffin Oil Com
pany have received during a pc
riod of ten years.
Eight thousand for one! That
| is the profit the original invest
ors in the famous Trapshooter
well in Towanda Township, Kan
sas. realized within a few months
after the well was drilled on
the property.
Thousands of fortunes have
been made by men and women
with a little capital and some
faith, and so commonplace has
become the story of rich strikes
and the good fortune which has
thus befallen another group of
investors that suc h stories
scarcely create a ripple of in
terest.
The trouble with too many
people is that they are not only
unwilling to grasp opportunity
as it hurries by, but expect her
to stop and knock them down
| and force some great benefit
upon them. 1t is never done
that way, for only the discern
ling are ever able to see far
enough into the future to take
| the chance. But the fact is
] that the avenue is crowded with
the limousines of those who did

CHRISTMAS WEEK FULL
w. 0F ENJOYABLE EVENTS

This has been a lively week
omnsements in Snowflake.
eyl Something was doing every day

Yesterday Christmas proved
an ideal day, the sun shining

have such discernment, while
their timid brethren stick to the
foot-path.
When an investment in oil or
in anything is offered you use
your brains to settle the ques-
ton. It is your money that is
to be invested, so why let some
one else decide the matter? In
vestigate the offer carefully,
prove up every assertion, and
once you are satisfied that the
proposition is honest and legiti-
mate and has a good chance of
success, then act. John Rookie
feller did.

f You Need a Medicine
 You Should Havethe Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon for gotten? The reason is plain--the article did not fulfil the promises of particularly to a medicine. A medi- cinal preparation that has real cura- tive value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recomm ended by those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of it.
 A prominent druggist says Take for example Dr. F<ilmer's Swamp Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent results, as many of my customers testify. No other kid ney remedy has so large 8 sale"
 According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulflls almost every wish in over- coming kidney, liver and bladder ailments, corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
 You may receive sample bottle of Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Ad- dress pr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y, and enclose ten cents; also mention the New Britain Daily Herald. Large and medium size bottles for sale at all drug stores.

LADIES! LOOK YOUNG,
 DARKEN GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe and nobody can tell.
 Brush if through hair.

Gray hair, however handsome, de- notes advancing age. We all know the advantages of a youthful appear ance. Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When 1t fades, turns gray and looks streaked just a few applications of Sage Tea and Sulphur enhances it's appearance a hundred-fold
 Don't stay gray ! Look young Either prepare the recipe at home or get from any drug store a bottle of ''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound" which is merely the old time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. Thousands of folks recommend this ready-to- use prepara- tion, because it darkens the hair beau- tifully, besides, no one can possibly tell, as it darkens so naturally and evenly. You moisten a sponge or soft brush with it, drawing this through the hair, taking one small strand at Q time. By morning the gray hair disappears; after another application or tWo' it's natural color is restored and II becomes thick, glossy and lus- 0nus- ana you appear years younger
