Peoples Experiences.

Occasional attacks of backaehe, ir-
regular urination, headaches and diz-
zy spells are common early symp-
toms of kidney disorders. It's an er-
ror to neglect these ills. The at
tacks may pass off for a time but re-
turn with greater intensity. If there
are symptoms of dropsy-puffy swell
ings below the eyes, bloating of the
limbs and ankles, or any part of the
body, don't delay minute. Begin
taking Doan's Kidney Pills, and
keep UP the treatment until the kid
neys are well, when your old time
health and vigor will return. Cures
in Mexico prove the effectiveness OF
this great kidney remedy.

IT is peculiar rule of economy
to spend a thousand dollars to save
fifteen hundred If 1t would have
that result. The petition Sam Bovine
is circulating throughout the county
to call a special election for the
abolishment of the position of Coun-
ty Highway Commissioner, If 1t
bears Is per cent. of the tax
payers in the county, will result in
the expenditure of $1,000 for spec
ial election. The result Of this elec-
tion is in doubt. The money paid
the present incumbent was formerly
paid the county surveyor. If his Of
flee is done away with, the surveyor
will again receive it. Where is the
saving? When you have one man in
charge of the road and bridge work,
he can get better results than an
other who has other duties besides,
The great saving Mr.. Wakefield has
succeeded in making for the coun
ty is one of the greatest arguments
in favor of the continuation of his Of
flee, In every department of his
work he has saved hundreds Of dol
lars. Will the abolishment Of
County Highway Commissioner save
us money? Before you sign a peti
ton or vote on any matter, 1t il
always well to inform yourself fully
concerning il. The money for tn,
salary of Highway COMMISSIONS
comes from the general funds ant
not the road funds, as some think.

REFERRING TO the assessment Of
Missouri property, the Troy (Mo.
Free Press says: "Said one of our
best farmer friends to us Tuesday:
The Free Press Is exactly right on
the subject of land assessments. If
my horse, worth $50 at liberal
cash value, is assessed at $40, why
should my neighbor's land, worth
the same per acre, be assessed at
only IS to $12? In my opinion" he
continued, "the reason land is pass
ing into the hands of the few so rap
idly is largely due to the fact that
the investors know that their taxes
will be less if their money is in
vested in land

HEN SYNDICATE.

. Il Is claimed that the average pro-
duction of hen is 200 egs per an
mum, but 1t is safe to assume that
the actual is much below this figure.
Adopting the very conservative fig
ure Of 100 egs per hen per annum,
we find on the above basis of pro
duction there are $150,000,000 lay
ing hens i'm the United States re-
sponsible for the production of 49,
900, ,O00,0 900 eggs.
At the farm price of zoe per dozen
the total income derived from each
hen annually would amount to 50.
Allowing 40 cents for maintenance,
and 10 cents for depreciation, which
latter would wipe out the market val
ue of the hen in four years, irrespec-
tive of salvage when the period Of
production is over, the net profit pei
hen per annum amounts to $3.50.
This profit, according to Wall
street standards, capitalized on a
per cent income basis, would plcae
a nominal value of $50 ON each hen
For the 15O,Oo0,0O0 hens this would
amount to the enormous total Of
$4, 500. 100000
That the American hen can re
turn yield of 5 per cent per an
mum on a capitalization of $4,000,
100000 appears nothing short of re
markable, but such is the case
The entire outstanding capital obi
cations of the railroads of the Unit
ed States in 1907 were less than foul
times this amount, or $16,0S2, LAG, ,6SS
while the total paid out in interes'
and dividends represented but 4.0I
