COTTONWOOD CURSE
 CAUSES WORRY BUT
 HERE'S AN ANSWER

Cotton is both blessing and a curse in Salt River valley, according to the various viewpoints of the numerous inhabitants.
 But they all agree at that Every one knows that Pima cotton has done much to make more famous this al ready far-famed valley, and added mil lions to the bank accounts of the growers.
 It is the cotton that grows, and blows, from the cottonwood trees, that causes the rucus.
 It starts the asthmatics to wheezing. the hay fever victims to sneezing. It tickles the nose of the baby in his crib and makes him howl, drifts into the soup of the dinner guest we wish to impress, buries the lawn under an arctic looking carpet, and raises the dickens generally.
 Whereat many, yea. numerous. citi- zens both good and bad have risen up in their wrath and demanded that the nuisance be abated, abased, prevented, shut off, eliminated, stopped.
 They worried the city commission nearly distracted. Whether they want ed the trees cut down, or court in- junction got out to prevent them from ittering up the landscape and irri- tating the irrigators was not apparent, but they wanted something done
 The board of supervisors were, bom- barded, too, and the highway depart ment and it is said that one irate citizen thought the governor ought to do something about it.
 And now comes forward one who would save the situation-and maybe the trees. The proposed remedy is simple, and said to be unfailing. It is merely to bore a hole in the tree. and presto, she, he, or it stops shedding the annoying particles of fluff.
 (We hesitated @ long time about dis closing this secret. for fear the hard ware merchants might be embarrassed by 8 sudden and unprecedented de- mand for augers, but have decided to take a chance. The cure is not en- dorsed, nor sworn to, nor guaranteed- we just heard about it)

When receiving gentleman caller never fuss about his hat or stick. Let him find place to put them without any trouble.
 He must also struggle into his own coat unaided unless there IS another man present to aid him. A woman does not help him with this nor should he expect it. An exception may be made in the case of a very old, feebl, or crippled gentleman who is to be assisted by his hostess, as a matter of difference to age and in firmity. If there is brother in the house, however, 1t is always well for him to aid any men guests in these matters.
