CORN PROSPECTS NOT BRIGHT


According to the Burlington's
weekly crop report for Nebraska.

bumper point. On the basis of 100

divisions, covering the winter wheat
area OF the state, the estimate was:

where the rainfall wes the heaviest and

Wheat over the entire territory has

ACID IN STOMACH
SOURS THE FOOD
SAYS EXCESS OF HYDRoCHLORIC
ACID is CAUSE OF INDI-
GESTION.

A well known authority states
that stomach trouble and Indigestion
is nearly always due to acidity-acid
stomach--and not, as most folks be-
lleve from a lack of digestive juices.
He states that an excess of hydro
chloric acid in the stomach retards
digestion and starts food fermenta-
bage in can. forming acid fluids
and gases which initiate the stomach
like a toy balloon. We then get
that heavy. lumpy feeling in the
chest, we eructate sour food, belch
gas or have heartburn, flatulence.
waterbrash, or nausea.
! He tells us to lay aside all dlges-
tive aids and instead. get from any
pharmacy four ounces OF Jad Salts
and take a tablespoon in a glass of
water before breakfast while II is
effervescing, and Furthermore, to
continue this for one week. While
relief follows the first dose, It is im-
portant to neutralize the acidity, re-
move the gas-maklng mass, start the
liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus
promote free flow of digestive jul
ces.
l Jad Salts is inexpensive and il
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with llthia

people for stomach trouble with ex.

GRAIN BAGS ARE
BADLY NEEDED
Wednesdays Market.l

PORTLAND, Ore.-The United
States government will be asked to aid
grain bag importers in securing sup
plies in time to handle the coming
crop. The local grain trade has Sc
cured the services of Senator Cham
berlain to advocate their cause before
federal officials.
The situation is so extremely seri-
Gus that the trade here fears that II
the government delays in coming to
the aid of the trade by furnishing
ships to bring the cargoes of bags
from Hongkong. a large percent OF
the Pacific Coast wheat crop will be
ruined.
So tight is said to be the congestion
in Hongkong shipping that little relief
is expected through the regular ship
ping channels, The harvesting Of
grain starts in the Pacific northwest
in less than a month, therefore quick
action in securing bags is necessary
Grain trade is very limited. The
season is closing fast With the ex-
ception of oats little business has re-
suited recently. Oats have been beat

Sales of lambs continued at IS in

This Position Will Be Basis of
Representations in New
Notes to Allies.
WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, March 19-The
blockade" of Germany by Great
Britain and France must be real TO
give the allies the legal right to stop
commerce TO that nation in neutral
ships and through neutral countries.
This was understood today TO be the
position of the administration relative
to the British order lin council and
il was expected it would be the basis
of "a new representation soon to be
made To the British and French gov
ernments.
Doubt still exists in the minds Of
officials as TO whether the blockade is
TO be a legal one as suggested in the
clause stating the order would be en-
forced by u cruiser Gordon, or
whether future detentiOns Will be
based on the ord nary rules of con-
traband or nOn-contraband.
A strong disposition was evident in
administration circles TO recognize
the right of the allies to stop COM
merce with Germany by means of an
actual blockade, but the legal au-
thority To halt other goods moving in
neutral ships and through neutral
territory was denied.
Government experts continued
their examination OF the data at hand
to establish a basis for the American
position as it will be. outlined in the
forthcoming communications but it
was apparent that the issue most
likely would be narrowed down 10
these points 1t was expected also
that this would be used as ground for
further damage claims for ships and
cargoes that may be held up by
France and Great Britain.
Another point raised by high Off
cials Of the government that no notice
Of a blockade haC been served on the
neutral countries. Such notice. Il was
argued is required by international
law. II was pointed out that the or
