There still remain in thi valley consid erable government land But it is going rapidly. I have seen on one side of the road a bright, grain field a Oregon boasts in May while just across the road every thing is a barren a a desert. On inquiry I bnd the difference due to irriga tion . I .and i useles without water right, and hence some of the largest interprtass are in the line of canal project. Ijand varies from gJ5 la WO per acre according to location and with the Land usually goes a perpetual water right. The valley is rapidly being covered wilh a net work of canals'. Oo either side of the valler is a range of rough ragged mountains when.'e the water Bows to the valley, and whence comes the cool air of the night. Monev is a easy here a any place I have been.

School, churches, charitable invitation and society average well with older com munities, ami there is an abundant new ror all to work upon. A fine specimen of the Indian as I ever caw are in this valley, great big. broad chested, robust bocks with all the fantastic features of the painted warrior and squaws lanouen ana pwnieai in tv ana ranou colors. There are many relics of the pre historic occupants of this valley, and one can not but wonder at the evidences o an early civilization little behind that which now obtains, tt hence these people came , and whither they have gone is the theme j of many a learned and eloquent diaquistion I but the mystery of their being and ctviliza- U n remains to t fathomed.

Hall, 217 Genessee St., Lockport, N. Y., says : "Over thirty years ago, I remember hearing my father describe the wonder ful rnrative effects of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. Daring a recent attack ot La Csrlppe, which assumed the form of a twtnrr h , soreness ot the lungs, accom panied by an aggravating cough, I used varioua remedies and prescriptions. While some ot these medicines partially alleviated the coughing daring the day, none of them afforded me any relief from that spasmodic action of the lungs which would seise me the moment I attempted so lie down at night. After ten or twelve suah nights, I was Nearly in Despair, and had about decided to sit up all nigbt in my easy chair, aad procure what sleep I could in that way. It then oc curred to me that I bad a bottle ot Ayer'a Cherry Pectoral. I took a epoonful of this preparation la a little water, and was able to lie down without soughing. Itt a few moments, I tell aalesp, and awoke in tha morning greatly refreshed and feeling much batter. I took a teaspooniul of thj Pec toral every night for a week, then grad aally decreased the- dose, and In two weeks my cough was cured." Ayer's Cherry Pectoral Prepared by Dr. J. C.
