II you must have your meat every day,
eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts
occasionally, says a noted authority who
tells us that meat forms uric acid which
almost paralyzes the kidneys in their ei
forts to expcl it from the blood. Thy$
become sluggish and weaken, then ya
suffer with dull misery in the kidne,
region, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated and when the weather
is bad you have rheumatic twingcs. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or three
time during the night.
10 neutralizc these irritating acids, to
cleanse the kidneys and flush of the
6odys urinous waste get four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any pharmacy here;
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
water before breakfast for a few dats
and your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid Of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
ilthla, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate sluggish kidpeys
also to neutralize the acids in urins
so 1T no longer irritates, thus ending
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in.

With so per cent Of all the students

70 lack Of workers to speed up the
oates farm development.
The other so per cent Of the stu
Dent body Is divided among the other
schools as follows: Engineering 25
per cent? Industrial education Is per
cent, general science 10 per cent.
Z This is the first statement Of the
classification of this years students
and was given out today by President
6. r. Hightower when he has finished
checking up the report of the register.
One Of our great needs in work
ing for the betterment of Agriculture
in the state" said President. High
tower, in commenting on the large
number of boys taking agriculture,
is the right kind of men for county
agents, for extension workers. and
teachers of agricultural high schools.
Within the past six years over tive
hundred agricultural students have
graduated from the college. Many OF
these have gone back to their own
farms. Where they have the neces-
sary capital, this is one of the best
things they can do for themselves.
Where the young man is without cap
ital, however. we believe that 1t is bet
ter business for him to work for a
few years on salary.
There are number of lines of ag-
ricultural work that offer both good
salaries and the opportunity to aid in
the states development. Our gradu-
ates are employed as farm managers,
as county demonstrators and teachers
of agriculture. A number have posi-
tions with the government in tick
eradication and live stock work. 9th
ers are veterinarians, agricultural
chemists and nurserymen."

oREENvlLLE's FACTORIES.

Washington, d. c., Nov 4.-A pre-.
liminary statement of the general re-
suits of the census of manufactures
for the city of Greenville, Miss, has
been issued by Director Sam L. Rog.
ers, of the Bureau of the Census, De-
partment of Commerce. 1t was pre-
pared under the direction of William
M. Steuart, chief statistician for man
ufactures.
The figures are preliminary and sub
ject to change for correction as may
be found necessary from a further ex
animation of the original reports.
The census excluded the hand
trades, the building trades, and the
neighborhood industries, and took ac-
count only of establishments conduct.
ed under the factory system. Stats.
tics we're not collected for establish.
ments having products for the census
value at less than $500, except that re-
ports were taken for establishments
idle during a portion of the census
year, or which began operation during
that year, and whose products for
such reason were valued at less than
$500.
The word establishment" as used
in the census report may mean more
than one mill or plant, provided they
are owned or controlled and operated
by a single individual, partnership,
corporation, or other owner or oper-
ator, and are located in the same town
or city.
There were 25 establishments re-
ported as located within the corporate
limits of the city during 1914.
The capital inquiry contained in the
census schedule calls for the total
amount of capital, both owned and
borrowed, invested in the business,
but excludes the value of rented prop
erty, plant, or equipment which was
employed in the conduct of manufac-
turing enterprises. The capital in
vested amounted to $1.695,00O.
The cost of materials used, in addi-
tion to the component materials which
enter into the products of the estab-
lishment for the census year, includes
the cost of fuel, mill supplies, and
rent of power and heat. The cost of
materials, however, does not include
unused materials and supplies bought
either for speculation or for use dur
ing subsequent period. The total
cost of materials used during the year
amounted to $1,177,000.
The census inquiry does not include
amounts paid for miscellaneous ex-
penses, such as rent of office, royal
ties. insurance, ordinary repairs, ad-
vertising, travelling expenses, or allow
ances for depreciation.
The value of products, which
amounted to $1.935.OO0. represents
their selling value or price at the
plants as actually turned out by the
factories during the census year and
does not necessarily have any relation
to the amount of sales for this year.

COCKTAILS IN HIS PLACE.

The frequency of serious landslides
into the Panama canal indicates that
the work of the builder is by no means
completed and that the situation de-
mands as capable supervision as it has
received in the process of original ex-
cavation. There now is one blockade
which will require months diligent
work before the canal will again be open
to traffic. Furthermore, there is like
lihood that there win be other slides Of
more or less serious nature. With that
conviction in mind, the public of the
United States will take satisfaction in
the decision just announced by Major.
General Cocktails that he has decided to
withdraw his resignation as governor OF
the Panama canal zone and viii retain
the position indefinitely. This means, OF
course, that he will remain at the head
of the administration which has TO do
with the supervision of the canal itself.
His value in that important post is too
certain TO permit of a transfer 20 some
other position in which there would be /
more uncertainty as TO his adaptibility
although there is quite marked conf
dence in the general abilities Of the man.

The people of Rutland have reason to
view the census bureaus statistics OF
their manufacturing industries with
great satisfaction, for the statistics re-
veal marked advance during the period
from 1909 to 1914 Most striking of all
in the figures is the development of the
amount of capital used in those indus
tries, the amount increasing approx
mately so per cent in the five years.
This increase must represent a consid-
cradle addition of industries. Other in
dictations of the growth of Rutland are
contained in the building operations, no
less than AZ houses having been erected
during the past season, not to mention
smaller construction innumerable. Rut-
land is certainly one of the growing
