GOV. BLEAsE ISSUES PARDoNs.
His Terrible Record Will Come to an
End January 9.

Columbia, S. Gull pardons to
about 1900 persons convicted in South
Carolina of various crimes and pa
rolled since January l., 1911, were
granted January 8 by Governor Blease.
In addition to that number, who
were included in a blanket pardon,
and none of whom is now in the peni-
Tertiary or in prison camps, the COVER
nor also granted clemency to 81 con
victs in state prison or engaged in
public works. Eighteen were par
doned, 10 paroled and six were given
communications of sentence; seven had
been convicted of murder and 10 of
m~anslaughter.
The governor had prepared a special
decree granting full pardons to those
paToled since January, 1911, and with
one sweep of his pen he restored citi-
zenship to approximately 1900 men
and women, who collectively had been
found guilty of violating virtually
every law in the state.
Governor Blease signed the blanket
pardon in red ink. He accepted as cor
iSSt tuS eStihidtS VI uiS ollicS dtlaShO5
that his action today would increase
to 3165 the total number of pardons,
paroles and combinations of sentence
which he has granted since he be-
came governor four years ago.
According to information obtainable
here that places Governor Blease's
record for granting pardons above that
of any state executive.
He will retire from office on jan
uary 10.

Helping Kidneys
By Clearing Blood
A Function Greatly Assisted
By a known
Remedy.

Most readers will be Interested to more
clearly understand why analysis of urine Is
SO important. In the use Of S. S. S. TO
purify the blood, its action is a stimulant
to the myriad of fine blood vessels that
make up the constructive tissues Of the
kidneys. All the blood from all over the
body must pass through the kidneys. They
act as testers and assayers. And according
to what they allow to pass out in the urine,
both as to quantity and materials, the
health of the kidneys and the quality Of the
blood is etermined The catnlytic energy
forced by s. S. s.. Is shown In the urine.
1t Is also demonstrated in the skin. And
as the blood continues to sweep through
the kidneys the dominating nature Of
). =. s., acting as it does through all the
avenues of elimination, shows a marked
decrease of disease manifestations as DEM
onstrated by urine analysis. This assist
ance Is a great relief to the kidneys. The
body wastes are more evenly distributed to
the emunctories; their elimination is slim
ulated by the tonic action afforded the
liver. lungs, skin and kidneys. Thus, in
throat. huskiness of voice, bronchitis, asth-
ma and the myriad of other reflex indica-
tons of weak kidney action, first purify
your blood with s. s. S., so 1t will enable
the tissues to rebuild the cellular strength
and regain the normal health.

DRINK MORE WATER
IF KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat less meat and take Salts for Back
ache or Bladder trouble
Neutralizes acids.

Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like humps of lead. The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irri-
tated, and you may be obliged to seek re-
lief two or three times during the night.
When the kidneys clog you must help
them flush off the body's urinous waste
or you'll be real sick person shortly.
At first you feel a dull misery in the kid
ney region, you suffer from backache,
sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu-
matte twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four ounces
of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful
in a glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous 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 activity,
also to neutralize the acids in urine, so
it no longer is a source of irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia- water drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep the kidneys
clean and active. Druggists here say
they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.

That there is not a remedy known
which will cure cholera in sick hogs
is the opinion expressed by DR.. F. B.

Questions and Answers" just pub
lished by the Agricultural Experiment
station of the University of Wiscon-
sin.
Many, if not all, Of such remedies
on the market today have been care
fully tested by one or more expert
ment stations with the result that
their use is not being recommended.
THE favorable results which some
times follow the use of these pat
ent medicines or cures, says DR..

natural immunity of the animals
rather than to any curative effect
Of the remedy"
Very many of the important ques-
tons about hog cholera are answered
in this new circular, copies of which
residents of the state may obtain by
applying to the director Of the Agri-

WISCONSIN DAIRY PRODUCTS

The recent estimate by Dairy and
Food Commissioner Emery that the
dairy output of Wisconsin now
amounts to a value of one hundred
million dollars per year is made a
text by A. d. Campbell, manager of
the Wisconsin Advancement associa-
ton, who suggests that instead of
resting contented with what has
been achieved in this direction, the
people of the Badger state would do
we'll to look upon past triumphs as
incentive to new effort
1t now remains, he says, to adopt
plans for a still greater showing
and the means are at hand There
is room in the partially developed
upper counties for a million more
dairy cows The adoption of alfalfa
generally in the state will enable
the farmers of Wisconsin to keep a
much greater number of COWS The
improvement of the dairy stock of
the state will open another door
toward enlargement of their dairy
output.
Mr.. Campbell estimates that the
value of the dairy output of WiscOn-
sin can be increased to three
hundred million dollars per annum.

worthy of ambition Does anyone

enterprise in dairy farming are SD

three-quarters of a million, and had
an increase of two hundred and
three thousand while Wisconsin re-
corded a COW population Of one mil
thousand five hundred and five, and
our increase was four hundred and
seventy-five thousand one hundred
and eight Let us not get elated
over this fact but keep in mind the
enormous increase in the demand. We
are called upon to supply other
states with dairy COWS. We have to
maintain our status as the first dairy
state in the country. We go on pro
ducing more and better animals ev-
cry year; Michigan and Wisconsin
have grown more COWS because OF
their large areas Of leguminOus
plants of which clover has been the
most conspicuous.
Alfalfa Fertilizer
ct is rapidly becoming known that
alfalfa will do more for agriculture,
and the live stock industry in par
ticular, than any of the clovers. No
small part of this increase of nearly
q half million COWS may be credited
to the new country, or upper Wis
cOnsin. Seven years ago there were
fifteen million acres of new lands
there; today there is only half that
amount seeking a market. To Wis
consin farmers belongs the privilege
of leadership in all that makes for
prosperity in agriculture. The name
of the state is known throughout the
world as a dairy country.
do we realize that to us is com
mitted the opportunity to make this
state the greatest and strongest in
every phase of farm practice? In this
state more than in any other the
function of cooperative work, has
reached its highest development. To
the administrative work done in the
departments of AgronOmy and Ami
NAL and Dairy Husbandry may be
traced to high attainment of the
states agriculture. 1t has been the
good fortune of the Alfalfa Order to
have been an active factor in the
Agronomy work.
Farmers Need to Study Alfalfa
"As each individual grower learns
more of alfalfa he will the more ear
nestly appreciate it's place in farm
practice, and will be better able to
measure the value of the plant and
it's relation to the permanent fer
tility of our soil. Just now our cOun-
try is passing through a period Of
trial The more than five billions Of
dollars worth Of American crops
have already enabled us to cancel
the trade balance against us in Eu-
rope. If it is correct that our total
Indebtedness to foreign lands exceeds
two billions of dollars, let us learn
in the face of plenty to be thrifty,
to save more, to raise our standards
of value, and to face the future with
reliance on the farmer as the great
est asset in our ledger account, the
alfalfa as one of his most available
aids which offers the quickest, the
most profitable return, and which
provides the greatest addition to
farm capital"
