CROP REPORTS
ARE ENCOURAGING
GOVERNMENT FIGURES FORE
TELL ANOTHER PROSPEROUS
YEAR FOR THE FARMER.

NEW YORK, April 15.-The weekly
financial letter issued by Henry Clews
says:
| "Outside of Erie there have been no
events of Importance in the financial
world. Operations on the stock eX
change are being conducted on very
moderate and conservative lines; the
indications being that this policy win
be followed for some time to come.
Our big leaders are generally inactive
preferring to await the outcome of pol
itics, or to hold back until signs of
business revival are more evident.
Perhaps the most encouraging news
of the week was the government report
| on winter wheat. indicating a yield Of
493, 100000 bushels this season. Condi-
ton is reported at 91.3 on April LIST,
compared with 91.1 on December l, and
with 500 on April l, 1907.
These figures are sufficiently high to
allow for considerable deterioration as
well as for the reduced acreage result
ing from winter killing. and still leav-
ing an ample yield for the coming har-
vest. Operations for planting in all
parts of the country are we'll advanced
and the season is fully two weeks
ahead OF the same time last year.
] considering the profitable prices
which farm products generally are
bringing, there is little prospect of any
reduction in acreage; and the general
conditions are such that farmers have
every irducement for increasing their
output during the coming season. It is
noteworthy that there are not many
complaints of the scarcity of labor.
which last year materially interfered
with a proper cultivation of the crops
in many districts.

More people succumb each year to
some form Of kidney trouble than any
other cause. The slightest form of kid
ney derangement often develops into
BIisht's kidney disease. diabetes or
dropsy When either of these diseases
ere suspected the sufferer should al
once seek tne best medical attention
possible Consult only a good, fist
class physician. leave patent medicines
alone.
There are many of the lesser symp-
toms of kidney trouble which can be
treated at home is stated by a we'll
known authority For some of these,
such as backache. pain in the region
Of the kidneys, weak bladder, frequen-
c.. ESPECIALLY at night painful scald-
ing and other urinary troubles, try the
following simple home remedy. Fluid
Extract Dandelion one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup of Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. These simple ingredients are
harmless and can be obtained at any
good prescription pharmacy and any
one can mix them by shaking well in a
bottle. The dose for adults is a tea
spoonful after each meal and again at
bedtime.
There is no better general remedy
known to relieve all forms of rheuma-
tism either because it acts directly
upon the kidneys and blood. 1t cleans
the clogged up pores in the kidneys so
they can filter and strain from the
blood the poisonous uric acid and
waste matter which if not eliminated

settle about the joints and muscular
tissues causing the untold suffering and
deformity of rheumatism.
