more beef. If the beef growers of this
learned body will set themselves at work
to insure the farmers living price for
the animals they now grow, the increase

stanchions will fill and beef stock will
multiply. Here is the right end of the

There is more Catarrh in this section

be lncurable. Doctors prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to

greatly influenced by constitutional con-

The resident nurse for the Passama
quoddy Tribe of Indians, provided for by
the both legislature, has been on duty
since about the first of August and her
work has been very gratifying. Sister
Mildred divides her time between Pleas
ant Point and Peter Dana's Point and has
all the rights and powers OF local health
officer, as well as valuable experience
gained in several years at Bar Harbor and
elsewhere. The amount of illness since
her going to the Indians has materially
decreased, with cutting down of the
medical attendance bill from over 500
per month to 81 for August, for a popu-
lation of about 400. She has also become
very popular with the Indians and is do
ing much toward lettering both their
mental and physical condition.

the longest river in the world. Her
nando de Soto lake and not .Lake
Itasca, as commonly supposed. is now
considered by some authorities as its
place of beginning.
There is a difference Of 1.47O feet
between the elevations of its mouth
and Of its head and during its journey
from Minnesota to the Gulf of Mex.
leo the temperature depending upon
the season, sometimes varies as much
as $50 degrees.
Its waters wash the soils of ten
states. In the vicinity of Red river,
Louisiana, the volume of its flow is
estimated to exceed 100000 gal
Ions per second.
The Wisconsin, Des Moines. Illi-
nois, Missouri, Ohio, White, Arkansas
and Red river systems. as well as a
large number of 'lesser lights" with
their myriads of tributaries. flow into
it. These rivers carry drainage from
2S of the 4S states. This tremendous
watershed has an area of 1,24OOOO
square miles or 419o of the entire
United States.
The Mississippi is navigable for al
most its entire length or from st. Paul
TO the Gulf
Large numbers of passengers are
transported between local points and
tremendous quantities of freight-prin-
cipally grain, cotton, live stock, coal,
lumber, logs, provisions, stone gravel
and sand are carried upon it's sur
face. The river freight at the port
Of New Orleans, during a recent year,
approximated 1.OOOOOO.OOO tons.
