DAVE ABEL IS SURE
PROSPERITY IS NIGH

Nevada and California are in line
for an exceptionally prosperous sea-
son next year in the livestock indus
try. according to Dave Abel, cattle
buyer of this city. He gives as his
reason for this deduction the copious
rainfalls in both states during recent
months. Thursday night he said that
the result assured. and perhaps the
snow of that night that is now on the
ground land more falling this morn
ing) will make his prediction good.
Abel said the trouble next year may
be shortage of cattle, but certainly
not shortage of feed He said the
buying season for this year is about
over, but there has not been much of
a turmoil from the ranges because
cattle men have cut down the number
in their herds because of bad year
for feed and finances. Prices gener-
ally were low this year, he said, and a
very unsatisfactory condition was met
by growers. One other hardship Is
the fact that there is no market for
hides. But next year Abel looks for
better state of affairs for the rea-
son mentioned.
Next years prosperity will be gen.
eral because the agricultural interests
will be benefited by the rainfalls as
well as the stockraiser, Abel said. In
all sections of the country he has
noted the ground is fairly soaked and
green feed is plentiful.
California is in exceptionally good
shape in this respect. according to
Abel. who said that state has lots of
green feed now and cattle lie down
contented at 10 o'clock in the morn
ing, a remarkable thing not seen in
years and signifying that feed is ex-
ceptionally plentiful.
Altogether Abel is of opinion. the
West looks like winner in 1921 from
every angle of viewpoint.

Directions for the Use of Vicks

VTICK'S VapoRub comes in salve
v form. When applied to the body
its action is two-fold.
1st.--INTERNAL. The heat of
the body releases the ingredients in the
form of vapors. These vapors are in
hailed with each breath, carrying the
medication through the air passages
to the lungs.
2nd.-EXTERNAL. In addition
Vicks is absorbed thru and stimulate
the skin, attracting the blood to the
surface and aiding the vapors inhaled
to relieve the congestion.
For Deep Chest Colds, Sore Throat,
Bronchitis, Coughs, Hoarseness
For severe cases, hot. wet towels should
be applied over the throat and chest to
open the pores of the skin. Then Vicks
should be rubbed well in, spread on
thickly and covered with two thick
nesses of hot, flannel cloths. The
clothing should be left loose around the
neck and the bed clothes arranged in
the form of a funnel, so that the vapors
arising may be freely inhaled.
For Head Colds, Asthma, Catarrh,
Hay Fever, Whooping Cough
For these troubles, Vicks can be used
as for chest colds or can be melted in

How the Use of this External Treat
ment for Cold Troubles
Has Grown

X TORE than score of years ago, Luns-
MH ford Richardson, druggist in a little
L Y a. North Carolina town, was trying to
find a new way to treat spasmodic Group and
colds. He had been trying to find it for years
he needed such treatment in his own home
he knew that epicac and internal medicines
disturbed the delicate digestions of children
that the only way to get medication directly
to the air passages and lungs was in vapor
form. So he was searching for an effective
vapor treatment which would be economical,
convenient, and which could be used without
the necessity of closing up the sick room and
thus excluding the fresh air, SO important in
the treatment of colds.
At last, this druggist found a process by
which he could combine in salve form the
standard, time-tested remedies - Camphor,
Menthol, Eucalyptus, Thymol and Turpentine
with other volatile oils SO that when this
salve was spread over the throat and chest the
ingredients would be vaporized by the body
heat. These vapors, inhaled with each breath
all night long, carried the medication directly
to the parts affected and at the same time the

For Spasmodic Group and

Vicks is particularly recommended
for childrens colds, since it is exter-
nally applied and can, therefore, be used
often and freely with perfect safety.
For spasmodic Group. rub Vicks over
the throat and chest until the difficult
breathing is relieved; then spread on
thickly and cover with hot flannel

in spite of the fact that Vicks is still new form

DESERVES A DANIELS MEDAL

The National Democratic club has
made Cox an honorary member for
life "for his services to the world"
No one will cavil at that. 1t was the
gutter politics of Mr.. Cox which had
much to do with rolling up the tre-
mendous Republican majorities, Har-
ding would have been elected over a
far ADLER man than Cox, but the value
of Mr.. Cox's service to the nation,
hence to the world, in insuring a
humping Republican majority in
both Houses Of Congress was incal-
culable. With such majority the
Republican party is in position to
do much to restore confidence to the
country and to the world, and by
making good record during the next
four years, the reelection of Hard
ing will come as a matter of course.
. If it is any honor to become a life
member of the National Democratic

pressed for particulars it turned out
that Mark was a private in Con-

In connection with river and har-

at the coming session Of Congress, it
is likely that the control Of the course

It seems that in recent years the
Mississippi, which is always trying TO
change it's course, has been trying to
return to one of it's old channels, IN
which, if it should succeed, it would
run many miles west of New Orleans.
