Material and equipment for the dig
ging of the huge ditch that will
straighten the Iowa river from the
Hardin county line to this city and
provide drainage for thousands OF
acres in the river valley are being as
sembled on the ground by Pollard d
Campbell, contractors of Omaha, who
were awarded the work. Considerable
progress has been made in getting
ready. but the task is a long one.
1t is expected that actual dredging
probably will not be begun until Dec.
/, or perhaps a little later. The job OF
moving the dredge in sections from
Omaha to Liscomb, hauling it to the
spot where work is to be commenced,
and erecting it in the water, Will con-
sumo weeks.
Fills Seven Cars.
The dredge alone requires seven
freight cars to carry all the parts. The
first of the shipments have reached
Liscomb and are being moved to the
site about five miles northwest OF the
town. ...
AS all the equipment must be car
ried down stream as the work pro-
crosses, barges have been built on the
river at the county line to carry equip
ment and tools and two house poats
are being erected for quarters for the
men. One is to be for sleeping quar-
tiers and the other a kitchen and DIN
ing room.
Floats and Digs.
As the dredge, which will head the
squadron Of floating craft of the outht'
eats it's way down stream, cutting thru
bends of the river at places and wioen-
ing the stream at others, the Whoie
outfit, including the dredge, barges anu
Households will slowly float DOWN
stream behind it.
The dredge, of necessity, must De
set up in the water and the work Is
necessarily slow.
Because the dredge works under
water and is constantly cutting away
the bank ahead of it, dredging can De
continued most of the winter, except
ing during the extremely cold weather.
when work will be discontinued. IL
will require the larger part OF a year
to finish the job.

RHEUMATISM
is A DISEASE
OF THE BLOOD
This New Hampshire Woman Tried
Building Up the Blood and
Found Quick Relief.

The fact that rheumatism runs in fam
lies and that tendency to it may be
inherited stamps it as disease of the
blood
The poisons of rheumatism are in the
blood and as the disease progresses the
blood loses red corpu - IS, the part that
carries oxygen. the great supporter Of
life. This is true of all facilitating dis
eases, but it is more marked in rheuma-
tism than any other. A remedy that will
restore the oxygen bearers in the blood
will at once start to repair the damage
that the disease has done in the vital
fluid of the body. 1t is the oxygen in the
blood that burns up the rheumatic poi
sons just as the oxygen in the air viii
burn up iron exposed to it, leaving moth
ing but rust.
1t is evident, therefore, that it is high
ly important to overcome the anemia, or
thinning of the blood, that is so charac-
teristic of rheumatism, and there is good
authority for the belief that the disease
cannot be overcome until the blood is
built mp. For this purpose there is moth
ing better than the remedy employed by
Mrs. NJ. A. Towle, of No. 43 Woodland
