The Indians on our Western Plains to-day can produce roots and herbs for every ailment, and cure diseases that baffle the most skilled physicians who have spent years in the study of drugs. From the roots and herbs of the field Lydia E. Pinkham more than thirty years ago gave to the women of the world a remedy for their pe culiar ills, more ¡intent and effica cious than any combination of drugs. Lydia E. Pinkliun’s Vegetable Compound is now recognized as the standard remedy for woman’s ills. Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 616 N.C.

In reponse to inquiry, J. R. Shepard, whose farm is at Zen a, but who himself has recently moved to Salem, states that his cherry crop for 1907 was har vested from practically three acres, two of which have just come into bearing. The acre of old trees brought him $500. One Governor Woods tree, 50 years old, netted $20 at the low rate of 2 l4 cents per pound. A Bing tree, 19 years old, a graft from the original tree at Mil- waukie, Oregon, brought $40. Mr. Shepard has also a prune orchard of 1000 trees, covering about nine acies. The crop this past year, he states, was not by any means phenomenal yet it brought him $190 per acre.
