 My Dear Sir:

 'I saw after taking some Cardui .. that I was improving. The result was surprising. I felt like a different person.

FRUIT CROPS IN ARIZONA
 WILL BE SMALL THIS YEAR

Phoenix, ArlZ., May 11,-EXcept in the Salt river and Iuma valleys, the fruit crop in Arizona this year will made public today by L. NJ. Harrison, lbcal statistician of the United States department of agriculture. Late frosts were blamed for the smallness of the crop
 Almost total failure of the peach crop in Yavapai, Apache, Navajo, Gila. Cochise and Santa Cruz counties was reported. Yuma county reported it's peach crop would be about normal while the crop in Maricopa county was reported as 70 per cent of normal
 Yavapai and Santa Cruz reported their apple crops would be about 50 per cent of normal while Cochise said it would harvest 9 per cent of nor nal crop Apache and Navajo coun ties reported their crops would be al most complete failures.
 General Fruit Outlook Poor
 For the United States, the outlook generally is for a poor fruit crop,' said the report Severe damage from April freezes is reported from nearly all of the principal producing states.
 California reports considerable dam age to the apricot, peach, apple and grape crops in several important dis tricts The New Mexico cr6p is prac. tically a failure. Idaho, Utah and Colorado report heavy damage from the frosts of April "A and 25. The outlook for the apple crop in Wash ington, Oregon and Montana is re- ported as satisfactory
 Discussing prospects in other states which do not directly compete with Arizona in the fruit industry, MT. HaT rison said, that with the exception of apples in New York and peaches in Alabama, practically all of the fruit crops of every state east of the Rocks mountains had suffered greatly from the frosts. He pointed out that the frosts extended as far south as Flor ida. damaging the peach crop in thst state.
 Wheat 30 Per Cent Normal Wheat production in Arizona this year will be 80 per cent normal, if estimates based on conditions on May 1, are correct, according to report compiled by L. NJ. Harrison, local stat istician for the United States depart. ment of agriculture in cooperation with the University of Arizona eXten- sion service. The report showed a marked increase in the acreage de- voted to wheat in counties where cot ton usually is grbwn, but other dis tricts that planted wheat last year did not do so this year so the total acreage devoted to wheat May 1 was about 42.000 acres, about the same as ] last year.
 The prospects for the wheat crop ip the principal wheat producing coun- ties follows: Maricopa; S2 per cent ! Iof normal Graham, so per cent; Pinal 1 65 per cent: Navajo. so per cent; Pima 75 per cent; Santa Cruz. 80 per cent {: Cochise, 70 per cent.
 This report said that the reports on the condition of the crop m various l parts of the state forecast an average 1 yield of "A bushels per acre. or a total { harvest for the state of about 1000.- 1 900 bushels.

the tops of the mountains would be

Georgetown, it seems, is engaged in
the short sighted work of cutting off
its nose to spite its face with regard to
the Silver Plume road, and it is not i'm
probable that the result will be that we
will be side-tracked from the public
highway. The town has created the

we have been informed, by its refusal
to do anything whatever toward keeping
in repair that part of the state highway
within the limit of the town. The idea
seems to prevail that the town has the
cinch on the state and county and does
MT have to do anything. Maybe it has
but that cinch isn't safe one. Efforts
are now being made and money offered
by outsiders to remedy the short curve
in the road as it leaves town. Tnis can
be done either by broadening the curve
or extending the road lower down to Ar.

side track the town. The cost in either
