The climatic conditions are just ex actly what ate needed, tbe majority of the growera are college gtaduates and everything is done in a scientific way. "Beginning at Palisade, Col , tbe land is worth M.000 aa sere. Every where is piosperity and energy. Ev erywhere are irrigation canals, cleuu cut orchards, tbe most up to date ma chinery lor the extermination ot iu seoti and worms that destroy fruit, and tbe best implements for the out tivation of tbe ground. "Further on, io the Hood River valley io Oregon are the dry farms, just as valuable. There, by iutense cultivation and by conservation ot moisture men are groning rich on ti e proceeds of a few acres. Why out there, teu acres of fruit oultirattd land in enough to keep a family in luxury.

They're better quality, larg er, firmer aud Ireer from tbe UaB of iiisecta aud worms aud much of that quality is due to the systematic way in wbioh they are grown. " Mr. Stark pulled a large pear shaped apple from bis pocket. "Tbe Delicious, " he said, "and a product ot the west. Every one is tbe tuiiie in size and firmness. It has the tu-le of everything from pineapple to pear aud this apple is just one of the fruits that makes that western lud worth $4,000 an acre." The l'ure Food Law . Secretary Wilson says, ''One of the ob jects of the law is to inform the consum er of the presence of certain Jiarniful drugs in medicines." The law requi es that the amount of chloroform, opium, morphine, and other hahit forming drills b" stated ou the.lub.-l "f each bot tle. The inantifacturersofChaiiibei Iain's Cough Remedy have already claimad that their remedy did not contain any of these drills, and the truth of this claim is now fully pr jven, bh no mention of thein is made or. the label.
