MAN Of EXPERIENCE
BECOMES A SETTLER

A California mana physician--is
selling out profitable almond grove
and giving up a practice worth $751;
900 year, for the sake of being able
to homestead in the Quinn River
valley, near Rebel Creek. The man
is not a tenderfoot-far from it. He
is sure he knows what ts Is doing
knows from experience. He pioneered
for eight years in North Dakota. He
left there eight years ago and bought
land in Colusa county, California,
where he was assured almonds could
not be grown. There were one or
two abandoned groves in the district
when he went in.
This man was told in California
that there was no water to be had
where he located, and that his farm
was principally hard pan. He knew
better. He set out twenty acres to
almonds after drilling well and put
ting in pump. That was eight years
ago. He has made money, and now
there are 1890 acres Of paying almond
groves in this same district. The
growers there built large warehouse
two years ago. Next spring they will
build another one to give them neces-
sary capacity.
All this is the story of DR.. w. Fl
Harlan, of Arbuckle, California. He
paid, it might be mentioned, 500 an
acre for the California land he Will
sell it for $4O0 an acre. Dr. Harlan
took up 160 acres of desert land at
Rebel Greek some months ago. He
yesterday filed on a 160-acre home
stead, when he arrived here on his
third trip. He exhibited some very
in the north of the county, taken on
his previous visit. One of them shows
his well in working order He drilled
thirty-four feet and has a water flow
of $50 gallons a minute. The photo
graph shows an irrigation ditch ap-
parently four feet wide, with fast
flowing stream of water.
DIR. Harlan has brought seven of
his. friends from Arbuckle to locate
at Rebel Creek. Three came up with
him Monday. They are Peter Brooks,
who took a 160-acre desert claim
Harry Estis, a 160-acre homestead:
and a Mr.. Carlson, who took 100
acres desert. These men are all ex-
perienced agriculturists and horticul-
turists, and they are delighted with
their Nevada prospects. They made
California land pay where they had
to go three times as deep for water
or more. They say irrigation water at
thirty-four feet is better than any
thing else short of glory-hole.
DR.. Harlan is not rushing into the
homesteading business. He knows
the cost of tanning wild land, and the
time required. He is going back to
California for Christmas. and will do
no further work in Nevada until next
spring. when he will return to work
until September. The year after he
will move here permanently and
| build. 1t is understood his friends
are planning much the same way.
DR.. Harlan moved from North Da-
kota to California. intending to give
up medical practice entirely; but in
the new district of Colusa county, he
says. a practice was virtually forced
upon him. He is pioneer by in
stinct and rejoices in overcoming
rough, wild country.

Diseased TOnSilS

THE function of the healthy ton
sill is to defend the body
against the bacteria which
flourish in the mouth. But when
the tonsil becomes diseased il con-
stitutes a menace instead of a de-
fense. 1t then becomes an avenue
Of entrance for a great variety of
disease-producing germs.
The defensive function OF the
tonsil is particularly active up to
about the completion Of the fourth
year of life and it should not be
removed before this time unless the
indications are very clear.
tuberculosis baeilli and the or
ganisms which cause pneumonia,
diphtheria, influenza, and rheuma-
tism often invade the body by way
Of the diseased tonsil. These germs
stand ready to multiply and cause
infection whenever resistance is
lowered by exposure. exhaustion
or indigestion. Indigestion affects
vitality because of the resulting in
reference with nutritive processes.
Tonsils subject to frequent in
hammation which are chronically
enlarged because of smouldering in
fectiOn, and which are the seat of
puS pockets SnOuld De removed in
toto. They are then of no value,
but on the contrary source of i'll
health.
Removal OF diseased tonsiIs will
improve the voice as well as the
health.
Chronic inflammation Of the ton
sils is very frequently the cause OF
joint infections (arthritis), which
commonly goes by the name of
rheumatism. In most such cases OF
rheumatism careful inquiry will
elicit a history of sore throat. In
flammatiOn of the joints and valves
of the heart has been experimental
ly produced in animals by the in
lection of the organisms found in
the mucus covering the tonsils.
Attacks of sore throat are best
treated by gargling with very hot
water every half hour. Drinking
hot water is also efficacious, as il
not only relieves the soreness, but
aids in eliminating the toxins gem
Grated by the germs. An ice-bag
applied to the neck is useful

A s Puss Junior and his fellow
"A travellers left Little Tom
Tinker's house they heard q
child crying some distance on. The
sound seemed to come from a small
bakers shop, and thither our trav-
elers turned their steps. Outside
his door stood the, baker, whip in
hand, and by his side was a small
boy, weeping bitterly.
whats the matter?" asked Puss
Junior.
Charley, Charley, stole the bark
barley
Out OF the bakers shop;
The baker came out and gave him
a clout,
Which made poor Charley hop"
Puss Junior looked at the big
baker, whose face was flushed and
angry. and then at little Charley,
whose face was streaked with tear
stains.
Don't strike him again, please"
said Puss. The baker dropped his
whip on the sidewalk. perhaps
I've whipped him enough" he said;
but it's bad boy who steals, and
Charley certainly stole my barley,
for there is the bag on the ground
just where he let it drop when I
caught him." Yes, II certainly was
so. The bag had broken and the
barley was scattered over the walk
Charley stopped crying and looked
very guilty.
"And it was only last Friday that
I sent his mother some cakes" said
the baker, because she was i'll and
could not bake"
"She is i'll today" sobbed Char
ley, land Mrs. Brown camc over to
take care of her. But we had no
barley in the house to make broth
for her; neither did we have any
money: that's the reason took the
bag of money. didn't mean to
steal it"
What" cried the baker, ais your
good mother sick? Take her the
barley and tell her to pay me when
she can" and then he ran into his
shop and brought out another bag
of barley and handed it to- Charely.
You are a kind man." said Puss
Junior, as the small boy ran off to
his home. Have you any nice fresh
rruIIers?" Yes" said the baker.
In a few minutes Puss and Jacky
were eating crullers, while Tom
Thumb and the BIackbird were eat
ing the crumbs. You see. a cruller
was as big as little Tom. In fact,
he could crawl through the hole;
so he and the BIackbird were quite
content to eat the crumbs
