FORM BERKSHIRE ASSOCIATION Marks Important Step In Livestock Industry of Northwest. By J. L. Ash lock. Washington State CoUsere. Pullmaiij Precident E. A. Bryan, of the Wash ington State college, has just received notice of his appointment as temporary president of the State Berkshire associ ation, which is affiliated with the American Berkshire congress. Presi dent Bryan's appointment is the begin ning of the organization of the Berk shire association in the state of Wash ington. This association reaches through nearly all ' the states o' the union, and in the opinion of President Bryan, its coming into the state of Washington marks an important step In the livestock industry of the North west. Discussing the matter President Bryan said: "I believe the Berkshire association is one of the most active and successful livestock associations in the United States, and that its work in the North west cannot fail to produce good re mits. The Berkshire is favored by many of the most prominent stock raisers in America, among whom I might mention Nick Gentry, of Se dalia. Missouri, who is the greatest breeder of Berkshire hogs in the conn try; Reuben Gentry, of Kentucky; Mr. Hood, of 'Hood's Sareaparilla fame; and George Vanderbilt, of Ashe vi lie, Tennessee. Among the most promi nent breeders of Berkshires in the Northwest are the Ladd estate, of Port land, and Mr. Paul Clagstone, of Spo kss9. I hs?e r!;?d Berkshire h2 on my Pussy Willow ranch near Pall man for the past ten years, and am thoroughly convinced of the desirable qualities of this breed. "It is proposed by the Berkshire association to conduct an active cam paign in the state of Washington, in favor of this breed of hogs, prior to the Alaska-Yukon exposition at Seattle. Then by the time of the exhibit, our state organisation will be able to get up a splendid exhibit, and we will show the farmers of the state what sort of an animal the Berkshire is when proper attention is given him. Yes, it is very likely that the state experi ment station will have a few Berk shires at the exhibit. At the present time we have some specimens of this breed that have been pronounced by the best Eastern experts as equal to anything in the United States." President Bryan today announced his appointment of the officers and direc tors of the state association who will work with him in getting the Berkshire association established in Washington. They follow: Vioe president, Paul Clagstone, Spo kane; secretary, J. H. Smith, Pullman; treasurer, W. D. Goodrich, Wauna. Directors: At M. Stevens, Ellensburg; A. A. Somerville, Centralis; PJinny Shepardson, Castle Rock; W. W. Shields, Bprague; D. 0. Dilworth, Spokane.

PUTNAM SKIN DISEASES HUMORS IN THE BLOOD TvTien the blood la pure, fresh and healthy, the skin will bo soft, smootl and free from blemishes, but when some acid humor takes root in the circu lation its presence is manifested by a skin eruption or disease. These humors get into the blood, generally because of aa inactive or sluggish condition of the members of the body whose duty it is to collect and carry off the waste and refuse matter of the system. This unhealthy matter is left to sour and ferment and soon the circulation becomes charged with the acid poison. The blood begins to throw off the humors and acids through the pores and glands of the skin, producing Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum and skin eruptions of various kinds. Eczeina appears, usually with a Blight redness of the skin followed by pustules from which there flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense. It is generally on the back, breast, face, arms and legs, though other porta of the body niay be affected. In Tetter the skin dries, cracks and bleeds; the acid in the blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, which are intended to keep it soft and pliant, causing a dry, feverish condition and giving it a bard, leathery appearance. Acne makes its appearance on the face in the I suffered with Eczema for forty PimPle? d black heads while year and could find nothln to 1 sonasis comes in scaly patche9 on differ- V&tir&l.W. nt P3 body One of the worst In and burning; pnseulet would forms ol Bkin trouble IS Salt Rheum; ;&&T0hwdU it9 faTorite P!nt t attack is the scalp, the akin and when soratohad off sometimes causing baldness.
