GASOLINE BUT TWENTY
CENTS AT LANDER

Twenty cents for gas looked
mighty good to the Lander motorist
Monday morning when the sign was
hung out on the several filling sta
tons. 1t looked like a local gas war
was on but with the cut of from 3
to A cents in IL states of the CEN
trail west it was the following of the
market by Lander business men.
h reduction is not in line with
the market, it is claimed by the
refineries. They ann supply gas
oline under present quotations with
out a continued loss. The cut came
as a reprisal for price-cuttins by
independent service stations and
jobbers.-Wyoming Journal.

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James II. Allen, of 2G Forbes
st., Rochester, N ". suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him help
less and unable to work.
lie finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac-
cumulated impurities, commonly
called URIC acid deposits, were dis
solved in the joints and muscles
and expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he con-
Suited physicianc, made experiments
and finally compounded a Drescrip-
tion that quickly and completely
banished every sign and symptom
of rheumatism from his system.
lie freely gave his discovery,
which he called Allenrhu, to others
WHO took it, with what might be
called marvellous success. After
years of urging he decided to let
sufferers everywhere know about
his discovery through the newspa-
pers. He has therefore instructed
druggists everywhere to dispense
Allenrhu with the understanding
that if the first pint bottle does
not show the way to complete re-
covery he will gladly return your
money without comment.

Clark EndOr ses
One Variety Idea
Cotton Growing

CALEXICO, Oct. 16,-H. H.
Clark, president of the California
Cotton Growers Association believes
that the organization can success
fully press legislation looking to
one variety of ttton in each com
munity, the variety tc oe determin
ed, by the community itself. Last
spring campaign was made through
out Imperial Valley to secure the
planting of Acala based on the
fact that better price can be Sc
cured if thu variety is uniform. 1t
was fairly successful and those who
are now marketing their cotton are,
in most cases, claiming TO receive
better prices.
Cotton has become It big and i'm
portant California crop, says CLARK
and he thinks everything should be
done to get the best price possible
for the grower.
