DRY FARMING IN COLORADO.
Rapid Advance of Tills Method In
And Regions of Tliat State.
Great progress has been made In
dry farming the past year or two,
That is. a great deal more land Is
now being cultivated by the dry farm
lng method than a year ago. As show.
Ing the advance of the work In Color
rado.. the Denver Post gives the fol
lowing:
The total acres dry farmed In Col
orado, 300.000. Total acres dry farm-
ed In eastern Colorado, 200,000. In
crease over last year for the state,
100.000.
This shows that the Increase In the
acreage under dry farming during the
year In Colorado is 50 per cent. This
Is quoted to show what Is being done
In the simi-arld sections of other
states, in order that those w-ho live
In the semi-arid sections of Oregon,
may be encouraged to take up the
work wheh kas been very success
ful In Colorado, and which may prove
beneficial In this county, by well di
rected effort.

from Pendleton Second Team
Sending Out Export Hour.
Athena, June 11. As a result pt
cold, backward weather, a red rust
has invaded the wheat fields of this
section. So far no fears beyond a
slight decrease In yield Is -predicted.
The fields which have been Invaded
by rust Is confined to those where
the grain Is heavy and of exception
ally rank growth.
In fields where the grain Is thin
the rust Is of little consequence. Up
to the present only the blades on the
plant has been affected, the stock
yet remains undamaged -and It Is
thought that the present warm weath
er will serve to check any further
damage to crop prospects.

Often The Kidneys Are
Weakened by Over-Work.
CtabealUty Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
It used to be considered that only
Brinary and bladder troubles were to be
traced to the kidneys,
but now modern
I science proves that
nearly all diseases
have their beginning
in the disorder of
these most important
organs.
The kidneys filter
and purify the blood
that is their work.
Therefore, when yourkidneysare weak
or out of order, you can understand how
quickly your entire body i affected and
bow every organ seems to fail to do its
duty.
If you are sick or " feel badly," begin
taking the great kidney remedy, Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, because as soon
ts your kidneys are well they will help
11 the other organs to health. A trial
trill convince anyone.
If you are sick you can make no mis
take by first doctoring your kidneys.
The mild and the extraordinary effect of
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great
kidney remedy, is soon realized. It
atands the highest for its wonderful cure
Of tbe most distressing cases, ana is sold
