Pepto-Mangan Makes Rich, Red
Blood-Builds up People
Who Lack Vitality

If your body is sound and your
blood is rich and red, your acts and
thoughts will be quick and strong.
Let your blood get weak, and your
food won't nourish you nor your sleep
refresh you.
Too much hard work, an illness, or
a mental strain can thin down your
blood, and Pepto- Mangan is needed to
bring it back to a healthy, normal
condition.
Knowing this, doctors for years,
have recommended Guides Pepto-
Mangan because of its bodybuilding
and tonic properties.
Pepto- Mangan is such simple and
harmless tonic, yet such prompt
builder of red blood, that it's reputa-
ton has spread all over the country
To-day every druggist sells it and
thousands of men and women use il
as restorative whenever they OF
their children seem to feel below par
Pepto-Mangan agrees with the most
delicate stomach, and is obtainable in
either liquid or tablet form.
Be sure the name "Gude's" is on
the package when you buy Pepto-
Mangan. Ask the druggist for
"Gude's." If "Gude's" is not on the
package, it is not Pepto-Mangan.-

NOTES FOR
THE HOME GARDEN

"Plants can easily be protected
from Colorado potato beetles, when
are giving the gardeners much trouble
at this time by applying a mixture Oh
equal parts of powdered arsenate OF
lead and air-slacked fme," say the
garden specialists of the Extension
Division.
"This is a stomach poison and Is
effective against other leaf-eating IN
sects also, such as the bean-leaf beetle
the cabbage worm and the tomato
horn worm. The poison mixture can
be applied by busting through a
cheese-cloth sack.
"Onion thrips, plant lice, and other
soft-bodied insects can be destroyed
by spraying with solution OF nlco
tine sulphate-one ounce Of sulphate
mixed with six gallons of water. DIS
solve about one-half pound OF laundr!
soap in the water before mixing II

NO TRACE SEEN OF
 SLAYER OF JOE TEDESMA

The sheriff's office is still search ing for Manuel Evqueda, thought to be the murderer of Jose Ledesma at Jerome last Wednesday morning. So far no trace of the suspect has been found, and the fact he has disap- pcared adds to the shaved of guilt which the authorities believe falls over him.
 The circumstances of the killing are thus narrated in the "Nerde Cop per News"
 At 12:30 o'clock last night as he was coming off shit from the Daisy mine, Jose Lcdesma was shot twice through the back and instantly kill ed. The United Verde Extensoin watchm2a heard the shots and ran to the spot. near the lumber piles along the road leading from the mine, but the man was already dead.
 Circustantial evidence points to Manuel Esqueda as the murderer. The two men had had frequent quar- rels and fights, beginning with the return of Esqueda to the mine, af- ter having laid off for a couple of weeks, and finding that Ledesma had been given his job Esqueba could not get his old job back, and that started the trouble. Only last eve ming. on the HOO level of the mine, the two had quarreled, and Ledesma. to make Esqueda leave him alone, had hit him with light steel drill ThereupOn Esqueda swore that he would get" Lcdesma and make him pay for all his offenses. On several other occasions he had threatened to dispose of Lcdesma. At S:50 O. clock Esqueda left the mine, and it Is presumed that he lay in wait for Ledesma and shot him from behind the lumber pile as he came off shift Ledesma's lunch bucket was found at some distance from the body, and it is believed that upon seeing Es- gueda he turned and ran in the di- recliOn of the mine. The shots were fired as he fled. and one undoubt- edly took effect after he had fallen.

Paradise Valley ranch of the Rolanc brothers. exactly 2.5 miles from tn,
 bank corner. or about 10 minutes
 average drive.
 IL was visited yesterday by d dele
 gatiou from the chamber oi com mcrce, who made it on high all the
 way.
 The route will be easy to learn for tourists. Crossing the covered bridge south of town. where the street department has been making some needed road repairs, the route follows the Copper Basin road for 2.2 miles to the entrance of the Para disc Valley ranch road. From here, rancherS have made and kept up an excellent short road of less than three-quarters of a mile length right to their barnyard, which is just across the creek from the spot proposed for the camp site.
 The grounds lie in a little shelter ed valley. Aspen creek meanders through it, carrying a big head of clear water now and said to be good fer sufficient flow for camping the entire summer. Around the rim of the little valley, the pine hills tower, offering good dares for the climbers. Thumb butte and In- dian Mountain are visible. and all the campers have to do to see d vista of peaks and desert clear to the San Francisco Mountains is 10 climb to the rim a few rods from the crecl, bed.
 The ranch owners have promis- ed to install tables and swings for the kids and to do other things to make the stay of the campers pleas ant. The city will sign the road so that the strangers will have no diff culty in finding his way in and out.

 The Stay. Cowboy" banners are in demand. and auto parties leaving for the north and elsewhere are anxious to avail themselves of a banner and to advertise the contests to the world. From Phoenix requests have also been received for banners.
 Prescott is going to have the larg- est crowd ever seen in its history not only of spectators but also contest ants. The old adage that it pays to advertise" is eNemplhed in the From tier Days celebration, but the biggest ad which Prescott has is the fact that the contestants themselves go away satisfied and advertise the con tests.
