SAYS BEWARE
OF BACKACHE
Prescription to Prevent Ser
iOus Kidney Disease.
MANY WAIT TOO LONG.
Lame Back and Urinary Trouble Are
the Danger Signals--What to Do--Mix
It at Home--SpIendid for Rheu-
matism--Relief Is Prompt.
MANY WAIT TOO LONG.

More people succumb each year to
some form Of kidney trouble than any
other cause. The slightest form of kidney
arrangement often develops into Bright'i
kidney disease, diabetes or dropsy
When either Of these diseases are sus-
pected, the sufferer should at once seek
the best medical attention possible. Con-
suit only good. frst-class physician.
There are many Of the lesser symp-
toms Of kidney trouble which can be
treated at home, is stated by well
known authority. For some of these,
such as backache, pain in the region OF
the kidneys, weak bladder, frequency
especially at night, painful, scalding
and other urinary troubles, try the fol-
lowing simple home remedy: Fluid Ex-
tract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Com
pound Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. These
simple ingredients are harmless and can
be obtained at any good prescription
pharmacy and anyone can mix them by
shaking well in bottle. The dose for
adults Is teaspoonful after each meal
and again at bedtime.
There is no moro effective remedy
known to relieve all forms of rheuma-
tism, because it acts directly upon the
kidneys and blood II cleans the clogged
up pores in the kidneys so they can FL
ter and strain from the blood the poison
GUS uric acid and waste matter which
if not eliminated remain in the blood,
decompose and settle about the joints
and muscular tissues, causing the untold
suffering and deformity of rheumatism.
Backache is natures signal notifying
the sufferer that TIE kidneys are
not acting properly. Take care Of
your kidneys" Is now the physicians
advice to his patients.

James ]. tiiIps Idea o. ! Farm.

There viii be much discussion of
farming for the next few months from
many angles, one among them being
the most useful size Of farms. We do
not wish to be one sided and shall al
ways state fairly the large farm or
combination arguments, but 1t seems
to us that farming in this respect is
the exception among businesses. Econ
omy in the cost of supervision is the
only reason for the expansion of the
Unit in any business, and land is more
productive under the small farm sys-
tenn. Even # larger farm units are
possible they are not desirable. We
do not want the European regime of
ON overload with tenant farmers. We
want the greatest number of inde-
pendent little farmers. who hardly
need even one farm hand. James J..
Hill has more sense than nearly all Of
the professors. and he delivered an
opinion two years ago to the effect
that the individual farmer must have
fewer acres and more hoes.

h FURTHER PROTECTION
 OF WATER POWER SITES
AND PROBABLE DEPOSITS OF Pe-
 TRolEUM.
The Abandonment of California
 Reclamation Project.

Washington. Nov. 16.-In line with his policy of waiting for legislation af- fecting the disposition of public lands containing power sites and petroleum deposits. Secretary BalIinger today announced the withdrawal from set clement of lands in different parts of the west. These included 2.6S2 acres along White river. 40 acres of which. however. are embraced in pending claims: approximately 20S20 acres along Crooked river. 6.441 acres along the middle fork of John Day river; 9.031 acres along the north fork of the same river. and 1880 acres along the south fork All these withdrawals are in oregon and are believed to contain water site possibilities.
 Secretary Ballinger also announced the withdrawal of 2,e35 acres in Cali forni;i, containing petroleum deposits There are now 3,621 .O62 acres of this class of withdrawals. Because of the uncertainty regarding the results sought the interior department has abandoned the proposed construction cf the Walker river reclamation project in California and Nevada. Secretary BaIIinger today announced that lands withdrawn from settlement m l9n4 and 1905 in connection with that project had been restored tO the pub lie doman. with the exception of those sites thought to contain water power possibilities Notice is given that probably 4V per cent are emDraced within the pending segreSations and intending settlers should bear in mind that, irrigation must depend upon their individual efforts or be obtained through private enterprise

 You in Arizona have got more than thirty times as much in proportion to your wealth and population as any other state And when we get Ne braska and Wyoming filled up with settlers and the money begins to come back into the treasury then you can have all your needs supplied"

 Talk by Senator Jones. Senator Jones' was the last speaker and a large part of his address was humorous He needs no introduction. for Arizona well remembers his faith fuI efforts in behalf of the statehood cause and the fact that he probably made the most telling speech in con gress in behalf of the admission of this territory Senator Jones said in part:

 Seriously this is great project aud hope it may be finished. There has been much money invested. We want it finished SD we can get the money back" Mir. Jones spoke of the increased cost of the dam and of the creation of the irrigation law and the original purpose to establish Tevolv- ing fund. He said he had the honor of being one of the seventeen men who drafted the law.
 Continuing he said: "Whatever es- innate the engineers have made as tc the cost of the project they cannot override the law and We who are in the house and senate are bound to full i'll it. and I believe the people in the west are behind us in our stand. (Ap- pIausei And we have confidence tc ask for more. believing that the peo- pie will also stand behind us in oul promise to repay the government.

pIication to lands being reclaimed by the government or through private enterprise and if not, what amend ments are required?
 AnsWer-Yes-
 Third-Is the administration of the law by the reclamation service satis- factory. and if not. what are the ob- jections and what remedy is proposed?
 Answer-Yes.
 -Fourth-Is yoUr water supply ade- quate both for irrigation and domestic uses2
 Answer-Not under present condi- tions. but it will be when the recia- nation project is fully completed.
 Fifth-Where your towns have been laid out by the reclamation service, how do you provide for the improve ment of streets adjacent to lots owned by the government, and how do you provide a municipal water supply?
 Auswer-Does not apply to this pro icct.
 Sixth-Is your canal and distributing system satisfactory. and if not. what are the defects, what caused them, and what remedy is propdsed2
 Answer-The distributing system under the canals acquired by the gov crnment is steadily improving. and un- der those canals on the south side of the river which have been for years controlled and operated by the peo- ple who own the lands under them. the distributing system is in a very satis- factory condition. on the north side the enlargement of the Arizona canal and the development of the lateral system should be pushed to carly completion.
 Seventh-Can the cost Of maintain ing and operating the canal and dis tributing system be reduced. and if so. in what way and to what extent?
 AnsWer-OD the north side of the river, under government operation. we believe the cost Of maintaining the ca = nals and distributing the water can be reduced by lessening the number of canals and decreasing the number of small private ditches.
 Eighth-Can the water users by em- ploying reasonable industry and econo- my promptly make all payments re- quired by the existing law?
