TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS
IN FLINT TOMORROW

To make the final arrangements for
the hiring of crop expert, the execu-
tive committee of the Genesee County
Crop Improvement association will meet
in the board of commerce rooms in the
Flint P. Smith building at 2 p. m. on
Saturday.
Secretary Galbraith reports con-
stantly increasing interest in the work
of the crop association, which will be
further intensified by the presence of
the expert. The government allows $l0O
per month for a crop expert in each
county, and the local association will
add to this figure, if necessary. in
order to secure an able man to raise
Genesee's agricultural productivity.

If it had happened last year about

WHO WILL HEAR THE CRY?

With the coming of new industries
into the village of Clio, the ques-
ton now arises, what will we DO
for houses to accommodate the peo-
ple?" Build more, of course. The
opportunity is here for some one to
build about 25 or so good substan-
tial houses and make good returns
on the investment. Our business
men have produced the demand by
securing the factories. Now, who
will be wise enough to see the OPP
portunity and take advantage of it,
to build the houses? There is plenty
of land obtainable, and all we need
is the men with the wherewith to
do the rest and necessary thing.
With one factory employing 20
men, another 40, and the brickyard
20, not counting the labor to be en-
ployed in the construction of our
pavements and new buildings this
summer. Is there an opportunity?
It's up to you to answer. These are
simply facts. What are you going
to do about it?

The Cause of Rheumatism

Stomach trouble, lazy liver and de-
ranged kidneys are the cause of rheu-
matism. Get your stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels in healthy condi-f
ton by taking Electric Bitters, and
you will not be troubled with the
pains of rheumatism. Charles B. AL
len, a school principal, of Sylvania,
Ca, who suffered indescribable tor
ture from rheumatism, liver and
stomach trouble and diseased kid
neys, writes: "All remedies failed un-
til fused Electric Bitter, but four
bottles of this wonderful remedy cur
ed me completely" Maybe your rheu-
matte pains come from stomach, liv-
er rand kidney troubles. Electric
Bitters will give you prompt relief.

SATURDAY, MAY 3, 1913.
A WARNING.

It has been reported that q number of people intend to To- tate lots on the ground which it is thought will be needed by the Road Commission for the con- struction of the glacier dike and also that homesteads will be talk en up on the ground upon which is growing the only available brush for the construction of the dike.
 The people of the town should not, and we are inclined to think they will not, tolerate such loca- tions, only made' in order to se- cure a piece of money from the commission.
 The commission has no money with which to buy land but must put all of the S55,0OO, or such part thereof as is needed, into the dike and if litigation is start ed the work of building glacier barrier will be delayed many months and possibly year.
Valdez daily prospector., 1913-05-03

whatever his claims as a scientist may be, he is lacking in tact. The fact that he has established his reputed tuberculosis cure on a business basis in Providence, R. l., shows what will be generally considered as a too hasty desire for profits.
 It is noticeable that we no long CT hear so much concerning the progress of his patients. It may be that the news interest in them has died out, but We hardly think so. If any of his patients have been completely cured in the short time that has elapsed since his arrival in America fL would appear to have distinct and high news value. Instead we read that the doctor is prepared to treat patients at Providence at a flat rate of S20.
 If Dr. Friedman can cure iI- berrulOSiS for $2O no one will nb- ject to the size of his profits. That is very low rate, value cons idered. But there still re- mains reasonable doubt as to the efficacy of his cure. The first optimistic interviews were fol- lowed by others not so encourage ing. Our own government off cials have made no report on his serum. The important question still seems to be in as great doubt as ever.
 In view of this condition would it not have been the better part of discretion to have waited un- til there was some definite ap- proval of his methods before op- ening shop in Providence? It may be doing Mr. Friedman a even to suggest that he is taking advantage of the publicity accorded him. But his haste to put his practice on a business
Valdez daily prospector., 1913-05-03

basis is a fair cause for at least a little suspicion.
 There is no objection to Dr. Friedman profiting by his dis covery. He is well within his right in doing so, but his anxiety to make it pay is disturbing. If he has a cure his profits are cer- tain. Gold bullion is not more valuable than his serum. A lit tie patience in this matter would have been much better for his repul at ion as a man and a Srien.. list. t.--EX.
