In 106 there were shipped 23.000
Italee of hop, which at the average
weight of ISO iHiuml to the bale, ag
gregate a total of 4.140,000 pound.
At an average ot lfi cents per pound
to the nrower thl vast amount ot
boM represents a revenue ot $602,
400, and, when It Is considered that
It cost the grower an average of 9
cents iter pound to produce these
hop and place them on the market.
it will be readily seen that the bulk
of this enormous amount goes to the
laboring class ot people and Is all
put Into circulation and Its benefits
reaped among the cltiieus ot the
county.
Next tn point ot Importance In the
agricultural line comes the prime In

as being merely In Its Infancy. There

and nooselierrles. all of which grow
to perfection In the valley, and no re

I'm in IjiikI Value-.
Notwithstanding tbe handsome re
turns to be realised from energetic
and judicious farming, as shown by
the above figure, based upon actual
statistic, the price ot farming land
In Marlon county Is quite reasonable
aud within the reach of all. The
pr'ces ran-e from $S5 per acre for
unimproved land to $300 per ncre
for ho land, while th average grain
land averages In price from $&0 to
$75. Many farms are for snlo on
reasonable termt. one-fourth cash
with two to four years' deferred pay
ments. Farms vnry from 10 to jo
acres In fruit tracts, to a half sec

tains about ICO acres. Tho coun

Strength
A weak and exhausted con
dition usually follows over
work, too close confinement, or
unusual mental strain. Every
day a certain amount of vital

plenished by sleep, rest and
nourishment, soon wrecks the
nervous system. The results
arc sleeplessness, headache,
indigestion, imperfect circula
