Those Dreadful Sores They Continued to Spread In Spite or Treatment but Now They are Healed -A Wonderful Work. "For many years I have been a great Sufferer with varicose veins on one of my limbs. My foot and limb became dread folly swollen. When I stood up I could feel the blood rushing down the veins of this limb. One day I accidentally hit my foot against some object and a sore broke out which continued to spread and was exceedingly painful. I concluded I needed a blood purifier and I began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla. In a short time those dreadful sores which had caused me so much suffering, began to heal. I kept on faithfully with Hood's Sarsapa rilla, and In a short time my limb was completely healed and the sores gave me no more pain. I cannot be too thankful for the wonderful work Hood's Sarsapa rilla, hag done for me." MBS. A. E.

Lono Cbebe, April 30, 1899 Editor Gazette: Aooordiog to prom lse, I will drop you line regarding my brief visit in the Susanville Camp, Not being able to prooore a borse, I doned my brngans and took a bee line across the oountry, through mud and snow knee deep, fully realizing upon my arrival in camp the true version of a "renl estate exchange." I found tbe camo far mors promising than expected. Tbe snow, wblc'c is about five feet deep along tbe base of the Green Horn, detered my investiga tion. However, judging from what I oan see at present writing, I prediot wonderful discoveries within tbe very near future. No attempt in way of development bad been mads up to tbe advent of tbe Badg er Company, aid tbe Ames & Simmon people last fall. Tbe results of tbeir devel opment np to date is most satisfactory, from tbe faot tbat tbe mill runs constan tly. New pumps tor bath tbe Badger and Stockton (Ames & Simmons pro perty) are being shipped io and every foot of available prospective territory Is being acquired by tbe reepeotive com panies. I am folly satisfied tbat with a few hundred dollars and carefully exploring the distriot good and most valuable pro perty oan be acquired in a comparatively abort time. Tbe faot is, tbe ground floor of tbe Greeu Horn belt is opened for big opportunities. It one could but take tbe old Green Horn and transplant it in tbe moat inacoessabls part of Col orado within 3) days there would not be left one foot of vaoant territory. CrossDig the Hock If s.

Pague, section director V. 8. department of agriculture: Weather Rain In the Columbia river valley and rain or snow over the plateau region oc curred almost every day of the last seven. The total precipitation for the week ranges from .80 to .75 of an inch, except over the central por tion, where the total was about .85 of an Inch. Thursday, Friday and Sunday had less precipi tation than the other days. The mean temperature for the week, 44 de grees, Is four lower than for the proceeding week and nine lower than for the correspond ing week of last year. In the Columbia river valley the temperature was 11 degrees higher than It was over the plateau region, In the valley the maximum temperature averaged 57 degree and the minimum 41 degrees. Over the plateau region freezing temperatures occurred almost every night. The total snowfall over the plateau region during the week ranged from 8 to 5 inches, much of It melting within 24 hours. On the mountains over a foot of snow fell. Crops-Blow growth In vegetation Is reported by all correspondents. There has been no growth over the plateau region, except In the bunch grass, and that Is making good growth. The sol) Is well soaked, and with reasonable temperature a rapid growth would ensue. The grain crop In the Columbia river valley Is in much better condition than usual at this season of the year. Tha upward growth Is slow, but the stooling Is superior to the ordinary good year. While cool temperatures prevailed, spring work was pushed wltb vigor throughout the Valley. In many parts of theOrande Ronde valley the soil is wet, and farm work Is some what delayed. The grain crop, the principle crop of Eastern Oregon, Is In good condition and has excellent prospects, Deep roots, good stooling and a moist soil are conditions conduc ive to a big crop. Tbe fruit prospects hav. not changed. Buds are swelling over the plateau region. In the valley the early blooming trees are dropping their bloom. The apple crop In Hood river valley la yet problematical, but a failure is not expected. Tbe strawberry crop is very promis ing, and unless unforseen circumstances arise the crop will be larger than It was last year. Hheep shearing has commenced. The cold weather has killed some of the shorn sheep. The wool clip Is fully up to the normal grade. Where the food was plenty the grade Is extra fine. Range stock is fattening and Is In aver age condition. No snow has melted In the mountains or foot hills, so thai the mining season will be later than usual. Robbed the (irav. A startling incideot of wbiob Mr. Jobn Oliver of Philadelphia, was tbe subject, is narrated by bim as follows: Ml was in a moet dreadful condition, My akin v. as almost yellow, eyes auokeu, toogue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite gradually growing weaker day by day Tbree physicians bad given me np.
