Occasional attacks of backache, ir- ragutar urination, headaches and dizzy spaus are common early symptoms of kidney disorders. It's an error to nagiect these ills The attacks may pass off for a time but return with greater intensity.

Begin taking Doan's s Kidney Pills. and keep up the treat nsent until the kidneys are well, when your old time health and vigor will return.

The Westerly town council met on Wecnesday evening for the purpose of counting and officially declsrinq the ballot cost at the town election Tues- day. President Clarke presided and these councilmen and Clerk Everett E Whlpple were present: Albert H. l4angworthy. William Culley, John T. Edmond, Wayland A. Saunders and Maurice W. Flynn. The count gave the counclimen opportunity to see just how they were treated at the polls by their constituency, and to handle the identf- cal ballots by which they were elected to office.
 The ballots cast in the First dis trlct were first taken in hand, One ballot was found in the republican straight tickets with Langworthy and Clarke scratched. This changed the number of straights from 70 to 69 and lessened their vote one each The 4s straight democratic votes as returned oN the counters was verified. Subse- quently democratic balot was de- cared defective because it was mark ed with an indellble pencil As the count progressed the councilmen found amusement a the manner in which some of the tickets were split. which
 ne could almost see the photograph of the voter on the ticket. Three voters had voted for a candidate each whose name was not printed on the ticket Iney neglected to write in the address and therefore the individuals voted for were not counted. After these discov- erles the count proceeded for just one noufs from [ to s, without interr11p- 'lon Ihe counting was necessarily slow. as only President Clark and '-ierk Whlpple could do the actuaI counting, Nr. Clark calling off each name on the split tickets separst stelv and Mr. Whipple doing the tabI1Istfng
 The count by the Westerly town council at the returning board made no changes in the results, but reduced ne majority of Kingsley over Bah cock, for assessor. from 5 to 3. All other republican candidates avera gel Q majority of 150.
 Ine actual counting of the First dis
 rict ballots was completed at 8.30 ana then came the figuring for totals on the tally sheet, which was com pleted at g o'clock The returns show | ed loss Of ore for Eugene Pendleton moderator; James M. Pendleton. treas Wer; Everett A. Whipple. town clerk and Everett A. Kingsley, for assessor This reduced Kingsley's total majority l to 4
 Then the count of the vote in the l second district was commenced. The l straight ballots showed a gain of one 1 over that returned by the moderator on the republican side, which restored
 hlngsley's majority back to ,. as orig. | lnally reported on election day. Tht counting ot the split ballots was ther commenced, each candidates vote he. 1 ing counted separately. The only clos. vote is on Kingsley for assessor.

has been given the opportunity to
rapidly multiply without any natural
check. 1t is possible that the natu-
raj enemies may become abundant
enough to control the Army Worm
when the next brood matches out, but
we are unable to tell whether or not
this will happen; so, therefore, our
farmers should be prepared to com
bat them,
AS the natural food plant Of these
worms is grass, all grass fields
should be plowed under or closely
grazed with cattle, horses, sheep
and hogs in order to prevent these
insects from breeding and develop
ing in large numbers. Especial pre-
cautions should be taken to prevent
the growth of crab grass, as it is
the favorite food of the pest in this
locality. Where grass lands in
| waste or idle places are fount MIST.
ed, many of the worms may be de-
strOyed by running over these areas
with a heavy roller of some kind. In
some instances it may be practica,

destroy the food of these worms.
They may be destroyed on corn, cot

green or powdered arsenate of lead
We have found that a mixture OF
Paris green to fifteen to twenty
parts by measure of lime has given
satisfactory results. Paris green
will burn the leaves of most plants
If applied without mixing with lime,
flour or dust, but the arsenate OF
lead may be applied alone without in
jury. Paris green is cheaper, how
ever than the arsenate of lead,
and is more commonly found through
out the country; therefore, the ma
jOrity of farmers will be able to pro
cure the former poison more readily
than the latter. The poison may be
applied with one of the common
dust guns manufactured for this pur
pose, or bags made of Osnaburg, OF
cloth Of that nature, may be used
and the poison sifted from them or
\ to the plants. These bags are us
