pleasure to confirm all L said about
Doan's Kidney Pills when | publicly

with dull pain across the small of
my back and | often noticed that the
kidney secretions Ewere unnatural.
Doan's Kidney Pills which were pro-
cured from Evenson's Pharmacy,
helped me as soon as / began taking
them and convinced me OF their
merits. / know of other persons who
have used this remedy with success"

trained men, while thousands Of young
men are graduating from our law
schools and there are jobs awaiting on
lv small percentage of them, says
Secretary Wilson of the Department
of Agriculture, and he advises educa'
tors to consider at their national meet
ing the problem Of diverting some of
the would-pe lawyers to the agricul-
tural schools.
Truly there is a demand for educa-
ted. scientifically expert farmers in
the United States, and the sons of
farmers, who might naturally be ex-
pected to take advantage OF the I'M
struction offered by state universities,
seem slow to realize the possibilities
in this line. Many of them wish to
escape from the farm. They dislike
drudgery, loneliness and the prospect
of only moderate gains. In the law
and other professions, they see, there
are some brilliant prizes and overlook
| the fact that there are many, many
blanks. :,
Young men of the cities who look
| forward thoughtfully may well consld'
er farming as life vocation while this
condition continues. If a young man
is fitted by temperament for farm life
! he will find in it profit as well az
| health and pleasure, provided he OBJ
tains a thorough education for it.
| This is the testimony of many others
besides Secretary Wilson, and 1t shoulc
be needed by all who are considering
! the choice of vocation.

Trained Agriculturists in Demand.

While all of the professions fare
crowded over with graduates OF
schools who have secured diplomas OF
efficiency, and many of these young
men are hanging on the ragged edge
of despair waiting for something to
turn up, there are always good jobs
awaiting the graduates of agricultural
colleges. In fact, the demand far ex-
ceeds the supply, and every agricul-
tural college in the country now has
among it's files requests for trained
agriculturists at good salaries, These
requests are being filled as fast as pos
sible, but the demand seems to in
crease faster than a supply Of the re-
