Satisfactory Conditions in
Yalley Dry Weather in
Eange Country.
"W. M. Heed, district engineer of the
reclamation service, has returned to the
city after a week's absence. He has
beenat Hoswell, X. M., and otner
points in the Pecos valley on routinu
business connected with the reclamation,
service.
Mr. Reed reports good farming- con
ditions in the valley on jOe irrigated
lands and states that the farmers in
that section are establishing a record in
the reclamation service in the payment
of their water dues.
"About 5 percent of the first instal
ments have been paid," said Mr. Reed,
"and that is as good as could be found
in the reclamation service anywhere. It
is my observation," he continued, "that
the farmers who have a medium acre
age are the ones that are in the best
condition, judging- from the prompt
payment of the instalments.
"As regards the range country, how
ever, there is a different report. Al
ready the effects of continued dry
weather are being felt."

FINE LEGAL POINT
INVOLVED IN CASE
Catarrh
Mr. A. E. Chase, 11 Bridge street,
Nashua, N. H., wants to tell catarrh
sufferers what Hyomei did for him. He
writes:
"About six years ago I first began
using HS omei. I was at that time badly
affected with catarrh, had been for over
twenty years; had been to doctors times
without number who, of course, would
help a little while, and then I would
soon be as bad as ever. I had become a
nuisance to my family and friends,
would cough, hawk and spit all night,
and it was generally believed I was
soon to beoome a victim of consumption.
I can testuy I have been thoroughly
cured by breathing Hyomei. I always
keep Hyomei on hand, however, for use
when I catch cold only, and after six
years experience in mv own case and
hundreds of others I have recommended
I can safely say it is all you claim for
it."
No stomach dosing when you use Hy
omei (pronounced High-o-me). Pour a
few drops into the little hard rubber
inhaler and breathe it ,in. It kills the
germs; soothes the raw and sore mem
brane and cures catarrh.
