ECZEMA DISFIGURED FACE
Hampton Springs,Fla—"I had had ec-
gema on my face and bands for about
three years. My face was badly dis-
figured. The eczema broke out in
pimples and Itched so very badly 1
would scratch it all the time. It was
the most irritating disease I ever had.
It started on my face and hands and
It spread all over my body. 1 had
great large sores all over me, caused
from the eciema. It bothered me day
and night so that I could not rest
at all.
"I used three remedies for skin dis-
ease and they didn't give relief at all.
1 was almost terrified until a friend
recommended Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment to me. They helped me from
the time 1 started to use them. I only
used two cakes of Cuticura Soap and
two boxes of Cuticura Ointment and
■was cured." (Signed) Mrs. E. C. Park-

An Initiative petition asking a refer-
endum on the first six sections of the
general election law passed by the re-
cent legislature was filed with the
secretary of state by Ben W. Riley,
secretary of the state election boasd.
The question, according to the peti-
tion, as It will go before the voters,
If the required number of signatures
are secured, wfll tit whether or not
the six sections shall be repealed.
The election law is a non-emergency
act of the extra session of the fourth
legislature and under the constitution
will not become effective until October
3. If the 12,500 signatures to the peti-
tion necessary to refer any state ques-
tion are secured before that time the
law will remain inoperative until after
the next general election, at which
time the question will be voted on.
Only that portion of the law which
makes Ned Mc Dan lei, secretary of the
senate, ex-olficio secretary of the state
election board, providing the manner
of naming the other two members of
the board and providing for the ap-
pointment of county election boards
will be referred.

dred men in our penitentiaries and
reformatories for whom we must
necessarily provide means of employ-
ment and believing that it would be
better to use these men in Improving
our agricultural interests, which at the
same time would mean the Improve-
ment of our towns and cities, until
some better means of doing this can
be found. I have made up my mind
to urge upon the people of this state
to take up this matter and keep it be-
fore the public until such time as some
kind of arrangements are made to put
our farms in better condition than at
the present, and I urge a movement
that will immediately put these unem-
ployed men who are being supported
by the state, to the work of building
dams, ponds or some other arrange-
ments for preserving the moisture
that we need during the months of
July and August, when we have a dry
year in this country.
"I believe Oklahoma could take up
no better slogan than that which has
been recently broached In Missouri
of 'WATER FOR EVERY FARM.'
"It has been suggested that reser-
voirs be established along rivers to
take care of the overflow waters. Per
haps that scheme could be carried
out, but why shouldn't a state com-
mission or someone, take up the sub-
ject and work out a plan? Perhaps
it might be better for each county to
handle its own problem, but be that
as it may, let's do something! I think
it would be a mistake for us to let
the lesson of this season be wasted.
We are going to have such seasons as
this occasionally, and we might as
well make up our minds to do what
we can to reduce the evils by making
reasonable preparations for preserv-
ing our water and having it at such
times as this when it would mean so
much to our people and to this state.
"In addition to studying the matter
of irrigation while away, I also took
occasion to observe the many good
roads built by the state of Colorado,
with their convict labor. These good
roads have been one of Colorado's
greatest assets and have not only
meant a great convenience to the citi-
zens but have attracted the invest-
ment of thousands of dollars in that
state.
"I talked with people who had
charge or had an interest in the work
during the time these roads were be-
ing built by the convicts of Colorado
and without exception found that ev-
eryone and every person cognizant of
what had been done, not only praised
the officials of the State for their
work, but assured me that the very
fact of working these convictB out on
the roads in the fresh air and the
better treatment, made of them, when
their terms expired, better men, and
those whose terms had not yet expired,
better prisoners.
"In fact, from every standpoint,
Colorado is greatly benefited by rea-
son of working convicts upon her
roads, and why should Oklahoma not
do likewise?
"The conditions are such that as
good, if not better, roads can be
made for. a minimum cost and a mini-
mum amount of work, as compared
with the roads that it was necessary
for Colorado to build through her
canyons and mountains.
"Good roads and a practical appli-
cation of some scheme or other, yet
to be figured out, of irrigation, would
be the greatest thing that Oklahoma
can do for herself. It would not
only assure to our farmers, crops
each year, but would assure to every
mechanic and laborer in this state,
work at his own trade in the future,
with good roads over which to trans-
port the products of our irrigated
farms. The improvement by reason
of these roads and this irrigation
would mean yearly a great deal more
to our state than some of our rich
mineral interests to which we pay so
much attention at the present time.

about the noble conduct of the United

men who bad served In the Civil
War. "I do not wish to disparage
