> I *■ v - - I For more than Forty Years I Cotton Growers have known that I POTASH PAYS &G I More than 11,651,200 Tons of Potash Salts I had been imported and used in the United I States in the 20 years previous to January, I 1915, when shipments ceased. _Of this I 6,460,700 Tons consisted of I KAINTT which the cotton grower knew was both a I plant food and a preventive of blight and I rust, —with it came also 1,312,400 Tons of I 20 per cent I MANURE SALT which has the same effects on Cotton, but which I was used mainly in mixed fertilizers. I Shipments of both Kainit and Manure Salt have I been resumed but the shortage of coal and cars and I ; high freight rates make it more desirable to ship I Manure Salt, which contains 20 per cent of actual a • Potash , instead of Kainit, which contains less than I I 13 per cent actual Potash. I %> MANURE SALT can be used as a side dressing I on Cotton in just the same way as Kainit and will 1 * give the same results. Where you used 100 pounds I of Kainit, you need to use but 62 pounds of Manure I Salt, or 100 pounds of Manure Salt go as far as 161 I pounds of Kainit. - * I i h MANURE SALT has been coming forward In I considerable amounts and cotton growers, who can- I not secure Kainit, should make an effort to get I Manure Salt for side dressing t# aid in making a . I big Cotton Crop. I Muriate of Potash I 50 per cent actual Potash, has been coming forward < > I also,—loo pounds of Muriate are equivalent to 400 X I pounds of Kainit or 250 pounds of Manure Salt, I These are the three Jt I Standard GERMAN Potash Salts * I that were always used in making cotton fertilizers I and have been used for all these years with great | profit and without any damage to the crop.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect It Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. Judging from reports from druggists Irfco are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is SQpn realized. It stands the highest for Its remarkable record of success. Aw T.mining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the as tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are re jected is because kidney trouble is no •ommon to the American people, and the Urge majority of those whose applica tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. It is on sals at all drug stores in bottles of two siaea, medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer A Cos., Binghamton, N.

LOUIS, MISSISSIPPI GOOD ROADS MORAL NECESSITY TO BUILD To Maintain Happy and Prosperous People on Farms We Must Im prove Rural Conditions. (By J. DENNY O’NEIL. Pennsylvania Highway Commissioner.) The problem confronting the high way department in these abnormal times when labor and material are so scarce and so high, is this: Shall we go ahead constructing new roads? I am convinced that good roads are an economic as well as a moral ne cessity. We must have food, and If we want boys and girls to stay on the farm to produce it, we must dig them out of the mud by building roads so they can get to market or to a rail road. There are places in Pennsylvania where it costs more to haul farm products to a railroad station than it does to pay the freight to France. As in the past, the hope of the future from a moral point of view, is to maintain a happy, contented and prosperous people on the farms and in the small towns and villages. They don’t produce I. W.

C ARMERS ARE BEHIND ROADS National Grange Officers Confer With Senator Townsend cn Bill He Has introduced. Proceeding in accordance with in structions given them at the annual meeting of the National Grange, held recently In Grand Rapids, Mich., Washington representatives of the or ganization, which comprises some 700,000 farmers, have conferred with Senator Charles E. Townsend of Mich igan and will hold farther meetings with him on the measures which he has introduced in Congress providing for a national highway system to be built and maintained by the govern ment under the direction of a federal commission. In a special report adopted at the grange meeting, it was held that the time has come when, with due regard for the present and future necessi ties for permanent, hard-surfaced high ways. all the highway activities of the national government should be unified in a single administrative department under such limitation of powers as will secure the greatest possible de gree of efficiency and economy in the expenditure of national funds. VITAL IMPORTANCE OF ROADS Modern Medicine Points Out There Are - p ew physicians and Nurses in Rural Communities. That good roads are of vital im portance to the health of a > commu nity and particularly those who live in rural communities is shown in an article in _ Modern Medicine. It is pointed out by the writer that there are few physicians, few nurses, and practically no hospital facilities in rural districts. In some communi ties, even in older states, there is only one practicing physician to 1,500 popu lation. Hardships of travel make young physicians scarce. Better high ways, he points out, will lead physi cians to go after country practice in increasing numbers.

THREE PRINCIPAL DIVISIONS Due Consideration Must Be Given to Location to Reduce Cost of Maintenance. The three principal divisions of actual road making are location, con struction and maintenance. In plan ning a road it is necessary that we take into consideration all three of these steps, since proper location af fects the cost of construction and may materially reduce cost of maintenance.

SALTS IF BACKACHT AND KIDNEYS HURT •top Eating Meat for a While If Your Bladder la Troubling You. When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region it generally means you have been eating too much meat, says a well-known au thority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they be come sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and dog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have backache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue Is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good, reliable physi cian at once or get from your pharma cist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters. It Is inexpensive, cannot injure and makes a delightful, effer vescent lithia-water drink. —Adv.
