that down in his state there Is tribe

There is tradition that they arc
the descendants Of the women OF

Carolina by Sir Walter Raleigh.
He settled this colony on Roanoke
island and soon sailed back to Eng.

FIRST
SERIOUS
SIGNS
OF Kidney Trouble Are Generally In
the Back Says Authority

Take care of backache. A great
many cases of kidney complaint are
reported about here, also bladder
trouble and rheumatism.
An authority once stated that pain
In the back, loins or region OF the
kidneys is the danger signal nature
hangs out to notify the sufferer that
there is something wrong with the
kidneys, which should receive imme-
diate attention. only vegetable treat
ment should be administered and alb
solutely no strongly alcoholic patent
medicines, which are harmful to the
meal and at bedtime.
The following prescription, while
simple, harmless and inexpensive, is
known and recognized as a sover-
eIgn remedy for kidney compliant
The ingredients can be obtained at
any good prescription pharmacy and
anyone can mix them: Compound
IKargon, one ounce; Fluid Extract
Dandellon, one-half ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparllla, three
ounces. Shake we'll in a bottle and
take in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and at dtlme.
This preparation is said to restore
the natural function OF the kidneys
so they will sift and strain the pols
onous waste matter, uric acid, ETC.,
from the blood, purifying II and re-
lleving rheumatism. Backache will
be relived, the urine will be neutral
ized and cleared and no longer q
cause OF irritation, thereby over
coming such symptoms as weak blad'
der, painful. frequent and other
urinary difficulties.
This is worth trying and may
prove Just what many people here
need.

years the whole of what Is now the
surplus production of the United
States wheat fields would be required
to feed their home population. That
this will come about In the short
space of three years one can hardly
believe, but there is no question
about the fact that everything points
To such a conclusion. IL may be ten
years before the United States will
cease to have any wheat available
for expectation, but IL Is certain that
We are rapidly approaching such a
time.
Taking the above salient facts In
to consideration. It will be seen that
the price of wheat is hound to in
crease during the next few years, and
will probably rise to SSs, to 4Os per
quarter. The extra cost OF living
will no doubt bear hardly upon
many, but | cannot help thinking that
Il will be to the national benefit that
wheat-growing should again prosper
in this country.
During the past 20 years great at
tention has been paid TO the growth
and development of live stock, but
IL would seem that Il is once again
the turn OF the arabic farmer.
This Is n national advantage, in
as much as tilling the land needs
two or three times the quantity OF
labor as compared with the same
area under grass, 1t would solve to
a great extent the question of the
depopulation of the villages, aud
would maintain the physique OF the
British nation, which admittedly
owes it's strength and stamina to the
countryman and not to the towns
man.-London Chronicle.
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1907-11-09

Now what Is the cause of this all
round Increase? Well, II Is to be
found In the fact that while the
number OF people is increasing in tho
world at very rapid rate. and while
the use or wheat -four for bread r.
growing In popular estimation, the
quantity of wheat grown Is the world
has not increased I'm the same ratio.
In other words, while there were
vast areas OF virgin land I'm America
upon which wheat was grown at a
price that could not compare with
the cost of production In cultivated
country, prices were bound to remain
low. At that time the American
farmer was prepared 90 take prac-
tically any price for his surplus
wheat.
TO grow anything like good
crop OF wheat now In the most favor
ably situated lands In America Il io
found necessary TO what the farm
ing community call do the land bet
ter"
This means that Il Is no longer
possible 20 simply plow the land year
after year. but that where wheat Is
still grown II is necessary TO put the
land under succession of crops In
order to maintain It's fertility. u
stands to reason, therefore, that now
80 much of this competition Is with
drawn the price has automatically
risen.
The bulk OF our wheat, as Is pret
" generally known, comes from the
United States, but II my readers will
only consider for one moment the
enormous increase in the population
OF that country during the last ten
or twenty years they will at once
see that the quantity of wheat and
-four required TO feed the increased
millions is prodigious. with the re-
suit that they now have very much
less available for expectation than
was the case few years ago.
This aspect OF the question was
most lucidly touched upon In a
report OF the department OF com.
meroe In Washington upon the food
supply OF the United States.

What Is N Watt?

In the electrical world one hears
and reads great deal abou
watts" The current Is measured
by watts; the machinery Is rated by
watts; lamps burn by watts. To the
ordinary layman all this talk oi
watts" is as mystifying as the death
of the late Akhood OF Swat.
The man 10 whom we owe tho idea
OF the horsepower was Scottish
inventor, James Watt. and when the
electric unit involving the idea OF
working capacity came TO be formu-
lated the name OF Watt was chosen
to indicate this unit. Just as that OF
Volta has given us the term volt and
Faraday the farad.
Watt considered that taking tha
average, a London dray horse was
capable of doing the work OF lifting
$4,000 pounds through out foot of
distance In one minute of time.
against gravity. The introduction
OF this time limit. the minute, gave
the unit OF power or the rate Of per-
forming work. This or It's equiya-
lent has ever since been called a
horsepower.
The electrical unit called the watt
is capable of being represented In
terms of the horsepower. and in that
form II is perhaps more ineligible
to those who are familiar with me-
ehanical rather than with electrical
expressions. The electrical watt is
the product OF volts multiplied by
amperes. where the volt is the unit
of electrical pressure and the ampere
is the unit measuring the density or
volume of an electrical current
Careful experiments have demon
strated that TAG watts per second.
are equal to $50 foot-pounds per
second, or to state the equation in
its usual form, 746 watts equal one
horsepower. The form in which
electrical power is generally sold is
computed on the basis OF kilowatt-
hours, The prefix kilo comes from
the Greek Chilioi, one thousand. A
kilowatt written also XIV. is there,
fore 1000 watts. The kilowatt hour Is
the performance or work at such a
rate that 1000 watts per second shall
be delivered continuously for one
hour.
The kilowatt-hour has a special in
