TRUE FACTS
ABOUT POOL
Continued from First Page.

was going on in Christian County
On more marked degree than in
any other county in the State.
You make the statement that the
same fertilizer manufactured in
Tennessee mines and for which the
farmers will have to pay SIS 70
per ton, is sold in Baltimore at
.$S.75. This being the case the
farmers feel that you should lend
t'lcm every assistance in their right
eo1s fight to get this price reduced.
You state that 'the farmers do
not seem to be very enthusiastic
over the Pool" The farmers have
asked me to state that they were
never more enthusiastic over any
thing in their lives, and that they
are determined to keep up the fight
until they can buy Acid Phosphate
at the same price at which farmers
in other States are buying it. We
feel that you were grossly misled
when you wrote the article and that
you probably got your information
from some friend of the fertilizer
manufacturers, but we feel sure
that we can count, hereafter, on your
hearty cooperation, now that you
know the whole truth about the
Fertilizer Pool.
Yours very truly,

THE MYSTERY OF
THE WEATHER.
By Garrett 2. Seryiss.

"Wlll man ever be able to control
the weather." Not as long as it re-
main a mystery to him. and a mys-
ttry il still is in spite of all the stud
les end all the experience of the
weather bureaus and the prognos-
ticators.
When Eve took Adams arm and
walked with him out of the Gard n
OF Eden's gate, she first Il armed what
damp weather means for d womsn's
frizzes, while Adam was probably
not long in feeling the first twinges
Of rheumatism. The conclusion that
a persistent spell of rainy and gloom
y weather followed the Great Ex-
plosion is as warranted as many
others that have been drawn by
learned men, because that would be
a logical means of causing the Offend
Ing pair to appreciate what they
had lost.
Ifyou ask a professional meteor
ologist why the North Atlantic sea-
board has been so persstently sfflict-
ed with clouds. rain, mugginess, ex.
cessive humidity and general atmos-
phere gloom this summer, he will
very likely look you defisntly in the
eyes and assert that you are suffer-
ing under an illusion; that the
weather is all right and running its
regular gait. and that you have for
gotten what happened last year.
Tnen he will discourse to you on the
law of averages, and prove mathe-
matically that. in the ,ong run, the
seasons don't vary.
All this is really confusion of ig-
norarce. Meteorology, at present,
is a science of averages and general
tiles. 1t has to deal with a subject
whose elements are so shifty that
nobody can surrey foresee,their vary.
ing combinations.
To foretell change of weather is
like foretelling the shape that puff
of smoke will take; and to account
for a spell of good or bad weather
is as difficult as to account for the
birth end persistence of a cloud that
hangs for hours in blue sky. The
general causes are known, or te.
lieved to be known, but science, tic
have much practical value, must
master the details.
| do not mean to cast doubt upor
the general usefulness of weather
bureau work, but there should be M
mistake concerning the bases OF
which it rests. When weather pre-
dictions succeed, it is because the at
mosphere has settled into state OF
regular action and reaction between
the forces that control its phenome.

can follow the course of a storm and

There is Heap of Solace in Being Able
to Depend Upon Well Earned
Reputation

For months Wa-Keeney readers
have seen the constant expression of
praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and
read about the good work they have
done in this locality. What other
remedy ever produced such convinc-
ing proof of merit?
Mrs. A. G. Baughman, Ellis, Kans.
says: about two years ago l had a
severe spell of sickness and was laid
up for several months. After re-
covering, l found that my kidneys
were disordered. My back ached all
the time and i also had headaches. A
few months ago / began using Doan's
Kidney Pills and they improved my
condition so greatly that / consider
it pleasure to recommend them"
NO TROUBLE SINCE.
On being interviewed some time
later, Mrs. Baughman said: Il value
Doan's Kidney Pills as highly as ever.
During the past three years, I have
had no need of a kidney medicine"
