NOTHING TO IT

There is story going the rounds
of some of the state papers to the eff
feet that Congressman Clark win
shortly receive a judicial appoint
ment, in the Philippine Islands. This
story wss. first given prominence in
the Jacksonville Metropolis. and has
caused considerable comment
Inquiry at Mr.. ciark's Office brought
forth a vigorous denial from his Sec
rotary. Edward Clark His statement
follows:
Yes. I saw the story in the Jack
sonville Metropolis. and If Mr.. CLARK
is to be appointed judge in the Phil
ippines it is news to those in his Of
fee here. and will be news TO him
when he returns from a short ocean
trip which he is taking at this time.
in order to get much needed rest
before the beginning of the next reg
ular session of congress.
"Of course the whole story is a lot
of silly rot. which doubtless original
ed in the mind of some reporter who
was short on news and long on mag
ination. Mr.. Clark is not now. nor
has he in the past contemplated an
appointment to a judgeship in the
Philippines: the only thing in this
line which he is contemplating at
present is reelection from his con-
gressional district to the sixty-fourth
congress.
The article further says: Frank
Clark was considerably out of tune
with the felicitous Tyre being played
by the other Florida congressman, and
every now and then a discordant, not
TO say embarrassing note was thrown
in from his part OF the band
This part of the story is not only
a lot OF rot. but a vicious falsehood
as well. and certainly entities the
aforesaid reporter to all the rights
and privileges of charter membership

DOCKING WASTE IS HUGE
New York Commission Seeks Better
Handling Of PerishabIe Food
Loss Is $500, ooo, 600.

New York.-As a step toward the
solution of the problem of the high
cost of living Mayor Gaynor's mar
'ket commission hopes to find some
way of providing better terminal IA
cilities for handling perishable pro-
duce. 1t is estimated that under the
present docking system there is an
annual waste of $500, 100000, This is
demonstrated by the report of con-
formations made by order of the New
York board of health, showing that
last year 100000 pounds of fruits
were destroyedi 100000 pounds of
vegetables, $4,000 pounds of eggs,
100000 pounds of fish and $4,000
pounds of miscellaneous market prod
ucts.
The COMBINATIONS made by the
100 inspectors of the health depart
ment represent only a small fraction
of the real waste in the markets of
the city. The waste in handling eggs
is estimated at 10 per cent, or $780,
100000 year, and the loss in poultry
is more than 100000.

to learn that the yeritable Little

Backache Makes Anyone Feel Old

Nothing ages anyone more quickly than
weak kidneys.
It is not alone the aching back, the stiff,
painful joints, but the evil effect of bad,
poisoned blood on the nerves, the vital
organs and the digestion.
The condition of the kidneys makes good
health or ill-health.
The kidneys are the filters of the blood.
Active kidneys filter from the blood ev-
cry day over one ounce of poisonous waste
and pass it off dissolved in the urine.
If the kidneys are weak or diseased, only
part of this fltering is done and the blood
is heavy with uric acid and other poison
Gus or waste matter.
Instead of being nourished by the
blood, the nerves and vital organs are IT.
ritated, and the circulation, digestion, ETC.,
are disturbed.
If your back aches constantly, if your
joints are stiff, lame and painful, suspect
the kidneys.
Kidney sufferers are likely to feel dull,
heavy, restless at night, rheumatic, dizzy
at times, subject to headaches and an
noyed with sharp, piercing pains that
make work an agony and rest impossible.
Doan's Kidney Pills are the best-recom-
mended and most widely used remedy for
weak or diseased kidneys. They act quick
ly; contain no poisonous nor habit form
ing drugs and leave no bad after-affects
of any kind-just make you feel better all
over.

the results than the silage. At the
station three years ago the eve flock
had considerable silage, in fact, all
they cared for. Also, the lambs were
not IS strong at birth as they ought to
have been, and some loss was expe-
rienced at Landing time. But an ex-
cessive amount was allowed and ewes
were entirely too closely confined
without adequate exercise. Exercise
is an absolute necessity for pregnant
ewes il satisfactory results are to be
had at lambing time. Lack of an ex.
perienced shepherd to handle these
ewes at lambing time doubtless con-
tributed to the loss. Since that year
we have had no bad results.
Back in the fall of 1907 the Indiana
station began to experiment with
silage for feeding pregnant ewes.
One lot Of ewes was fed silage along
with clover hay and grain. while an
other lot was fed more hay, slightly
more grain, but no silage. These two
lots of ewes were as nearly alike as
could be had. The next year prac-
tically the same experiment was re-
peated, and again In 1909. During the
first year a limited amount of silage
was fed. The second year, four
pounds per head, per day. was allow
ed and as no bad results accompanied
this liberal feeding. the last year the
ewes were given all they wer4d clean
I'D. KhSeks=es practically 4.6 pounds
with all they wished of the silage. no
delete-ious results were observed eth.
<er in the ewes or IN the lambs.
AS to results from these three
years experiments. the authors of
the bulletin concerning this expert
ment say that the general thrift and
appetite Of the siIage ewes was supe-
rior to that of the lots fed hay and
grain alone. The ewes. having a guam
tity of siIage. made each year a larg-
er gain over winter than did those on
dry feed The latter averaged for
the three years gain of six pounds
while the, silage ewes gained 1875
pounds, or more than twice as much.
Yet the writer's state definitely that
this gain was not mere fat like corn

With popcorn so popular an article

do well on any land that win produce

It should be cultivated and cared

and it should be shocked at soon as It

With the tremendous increase in the
use of silos for utilizing a larger
amount of the corn plant and the
greater use of silage generally during
the last two or three years, there has
arisen a great deal of inquiry, espe-
cially during the present winter, as
to the value of silage for sheep. Re-
Gently silage has come into general
use on cattle farms. Now that its
value as cattle food, from the stand
point of cheapness, Ss becoming more
and more apparent, the man who
owns sheep is beginning to ask why
he cannot share in a good thing, too,
writes Ellis Rail of the University of
Nebraska in Wallace's Farmer.
Unfortunately, the use Of silage for
sheep feeding purposes has been tried
out to but a limited extent Few
farmers have used it and the expert
ment stations have done little. From
all sources of investigation it seems
now that there is no reason why sill
age shall not find a permanent place
in the list of desirable and economical
foodstuffs for sheep. The writer has
met several men this winter who have
used it with satisfactory results, and
one man especially, who had fed out
quite a string. Of sheep with silage al
most the sole feed, was very enthus-
iastic in his appreciation Of 1t. We
have not found any men who have
had trouble from feeding it.
There has been a popular concep-
ton that silage is more or less dan
gerous to feed sheep, especially breed
ing ewes. It was thought that 1t had
a weakening effect on the lambs. also
that there is likely to sbe some NOR
tality among the ewes. Such ideas do
not seem to be well founded. 1t is
true that such results have been not
ed in focks which had silage, but
careful observations show that other
factors may have had more to do with
