IDEAL TOBACCO WEATHER

At last the good old weather clerk
has done the square thing and come
across with a real, cd time, first
class tobacco season. The snow OF
Thursday morning was washed away
by rain that night that continued
with rising temperature until
yesterday, making just the tobacco
season needed t6move the crop.
Everybody with energy enough to
grasp an opportunity is now busy
stripping tobacco and by next week
a great deal of it will be brought to
town and converted into Christmas
money. For once, even the merch-
ants were glad to see rainy spell,
which fortunately came a week
ahead of Christmas. 1t was rough
while it lasted. but every downpour
means flood of dollars in the end.
No sales have been held this
week but arrangements have been
made for them to begin next
Monday. The sale Monday will be.
gin at 10 a. m. at r. E. & w. ID.

lowing order: Hancock Warehouse

All of the regular buyers will be
on hand and there is an air of OPP
timism on all sides.
Tobacco is already coming in at all
of the floors and there will be fine
opening sale Monday.

Landing Of Italians in Albania
Said to Simplify the
Situation. ~
GERMANS ATTACK SALGNIKI
Greece May Keep Bulgarians
From Lending Aid to The
German Army.

London, Dec. 17.-There is a more
hopeful feeling in London with re-
gard to the Balkan operations now
that it is definitely announced that
the Italians have effected landing
on the Albanian coast and that the
Anglo. French force, which has fallen
back toward Saloniki has been strong..
ly reinforced with men and guns, in!
GLIDING some heavy naval weapons.
1t is not stated how large a force
the Italians will send to the assist
ance of the Serbians and Montsne-
grins. but from the fact that the
official account intimates that land
ings have been made at more than
one port, it is taken for granted that
an army of considerable proportions
is to be sent across the Adriatic. Ihisd
with the Montinegrins and Serbianss
who escaped from Albania will be a.
serious threat to the central powers
right flank, while they can never
look on in idleness to the concentra-
ton of an army at Saloniki, which at
a chosen moment, would undertake
an offensive, and to the gathering of
Russians in Bessarabia.
1t is anticipated therefore that the
Germans will strike at Salonild be-
fore the Anglo.French forces grow
too strong, and it is believed with
that end in view, they are now ne
gotiating with the Greek govern
ment.
GREECE TO OPPOSE BULGARS.
If their plans include the partiei-
patton of the Bulgarians in the at
tack, they ere likely to meet With
opposition from Greece. as Greece is
strongly adverse to any Bulgarians
crossing her frontier. This applies
also to some extent to the Austri-
ans, whose ambitions always have
Deen Tor portion OF the Aegean
preferably Saloniki. ~
On the whole, therefore, il rs
thought here that he Greeks might
prefer to see the entente allies re-
main there until the end of the WIFI
Ia fact, Lord Robert Cecil, under
secretary of foreign affairs, said in
the house of commons that the Ang-
lo-French pla was to keep the cen
trial powers from that city in accord
ance with the wishes of Greece.
Reports that the Germans are ere
pairing for an offensive in the wsst
persists, bat thus far there has been
little but artillery engagements and
aerial fights and raids.
General Townshend, commanu glg
the British forces in Mesopotalzais,
reports the repulse of another attack
on Kut-El. Amara. since which the
Turks have been quiet.

the middle, just above the pilot. The recoil of the cannon does not jar the craft, owing to an automatic device, explanation of which is not permissible.
 The other type, cruiser-aeros, or avions de chase, mount one sin. cannon in the middle and just ahead of the pilot These cruisers can mount almost straight up from the ground, at the rate of about 2,O0o meters in two minutes, so that they can go straight up to an enemy as soon as he is observed, instead or mounting slowly on long curves as of old.
 But France is not stopping with these new devices, and her engineers and constructors are inspired With the thought of a rich prize Of 5O,ooo francs for a still further advance, which will realize 200 kilo-meters an hour with four motors, two pushing and two pulling.
 The "esquadrille' or squadron IS only the unit of organization and it is in assembling them that the real fighting manoeuvers are accomplished The directing head of the organiza- ton is here in Paris, connected With the Ministry of War. Here all the orders are given and the service regu- lated. The machines themselves are

lorries, 9 trailers, portable can- vas aero-sh eds, autos.
 There is one lorrie and trailer and one shed, for each of the fighting craft, so> as to transport it rapidly to any point, and house it until need- ed. The autos are for the com manding officers, and to follow up the flyers when possible. Gasolene' tools, supplies, etc., are carried on the lorries.
 The "esquadrille' thus made up, is commanded by a commissioned of- ficer of the army, who acts as plot of the squadron. Commissioned ot- ficers also operate the fighting and cruising aeros, with expert non- commissioned officers and soldiers for the lesser craft. Including the soldiers on the lorries, trailers, etc., an "esquadrille" has a complement or upward of 70 officers and men, of which, however, only a dozen or so are actual flyers
 New Types of Fighters.
 M. Rene Bernard, the newly desig- mated Secretary of State of Aviation. has recently given opportunity for inspection of the new types of air fighters. The battleplane avion de combat) and the cruiserplane (avion de chasse,) are the two main de- velopments. Only partial descriptions of these craft is permitted; nothing can be stated as to the number of planes of the monster battleplane. But it is permitted to indicate it's power by saying that it has carried 12 men in it's flights, and that 1t m cunts on it's huge outstretched wings two Sin. cannon, one at either tep, with rapid-fire mitraleuse in

We eat too much meat which clogs Kidneys, then the

Uric acid in meat eXcites the kid neys, they become overworked; get sluggish, ache, and feel like Jumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irritated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body's urinous waste or you Il be a real sick person shortly. AL first you feel a dull misery in the kid ney region, you suffer from pack ache, sick headache, dizz ness, stom- ach gets sour, tongue coated and you fal rheuma i, twinges when the weather is bad
 Eat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of lad Salts; take a table, spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This fla nous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activ- ity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weak ness.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in jure; makes delightful effervescent Iithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of lad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble.

FRANCE ORGANIZES
 AERIAL ! SQUADRON
Overhead Service Drilled With
 Exactitude of Army

tCorrespondence of Associated Press.)
 Paris, Oct. 27.-Now that France has developed an aerial force with battleplanes, cruiser-planes, scouts and lesser aircraft, which the officers refer to as torpedo-planes, it has been necessary to organize this over head service with the same exactness of details that armies and fleets are organized, with tactics and manoeu- Vres of advance and retreat, attack a2d defense. Unlike an army or fleet, which can move only in one direc- tion parallel with the surface of the earth or water, a fleet of air warships can move in any direction, upward, downward, forward or backward and at any oblique.
 All of these tactics of the air are now being worked out with pre- cision. Already the official reports refer almost daily to the. manoeu- vres of an "esquadrille," which is the French term for a squadron of air-fghters, and soon there will be mention of the advance or recoil of the right wing or left wing" of these squadrons, as the tactics pro- vide for the assembling of num- Der of "esquadrilles' into fleets which can be increased in size al- most indefinitely Wells, the Eng fish novelist, suggested the deadly effect of 1000 aeroplanes lowering over Berlin and dropping bombs. The number an manoeuvre was at the tune regarded as fantastic But the organization of squadrons and fleets of battleplanes and cruisers brings this measurably within realization, and already one attack has been made with 65 aeroplanes, two with over 60, and five with from 30 to 40 air-fghters.
 Made Up of Unit.
 The "esquadrille,' which is the unit of the aerial organization, at first consisted of six aeroplanes. But the organization so that the "es- quadrille" is now made up prac- ticafly as follows:
