boys and girls clubs, and promoting better methods of marketing. He works with the extension service of the college and can call on experts in any particular branch of agriculture
 The United States department of agriculture pays $500 of the agents salary. the college furnishes $500 and the county pays the remainder
 There are from ,, 900 to 5000 farms in each of the counties of the state, too many for the agent to be in per sonal touch with. He overcones this by working in groups, One demon stration of pruning fruit trees should be enough for several farmers, for those living rear the selected orchard can observe the methods used and thus obviate the necessity of repeat the denonstrat ton in their own or chards. This is only an example of how the county agent organizes his work so that he can reach all of the farm in his district.
 MT Baker believes that the work of the farm bureau in this state will broaden to include other subjects not strictly agricultural He says that there will probably be workers ln home economics and in the boys and girls club movement. It is not only the farmer who is interested aiTl benefited by the farm bureau but the business men and, in fact, everyone. If the farmers are prosperous, then business ir general will improve and the world at large will prosper.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET HAD FIRM TONE. United States Steel Stood Out as thC Strongest of the Leading Stocks.

 New York, Feb. 5.-Latest fogeign developments as embodied in the Bro clamation of the German admiralty regarding the marine war zone formed the basis of general discussion in fi- nancial circles today and added to the feeling of depression in speculative quarters. Liquidation on a broader scale than any recently witnessed att cended the days fairly large operations international shares being again the centers of attack.
 Canadian Pacific, Southern Pacific, New York Central and Reading show ed losses at one stage of the. ses- sion of two or more points, the move ment finally attending to the grang- CTS and southern railways. Indus trials as a whole maintained a firmer tone. although coppers were off q point, also some of the highly man ipulated automobile issues United States Steel stock stood out as the strongest of the leading stocks, all though declining under 10 when the unloading process was under full swing.
 Canadian Pacific at 153 3-4 and Southern Pacific at S1 1-4 were with in fractional limits of their minimum prices, while New Haven fell 1-2 to it's minimum of 49, due largely to it's very unfavorable statement of De- cember earnings.
 Pressed Steel Car preferred came within easy distance.
 Half way recoveries were register ed in the late afternoon, when the liquidation seemed to have run it's course. Trading became dull on the rally, however, in the final dealings prices again evinced variable ten dencies, Bethlehem Steel rising to it's best wits some heayiness in United States Steel.
 Considerable new financing was re- ported, Lackawanna Steel selling S6,- 000,000 six per cent. two year notes, Panhandle" a Pennsylvania railroad subsidiary, disposing of $3,00Q,000 f 1-2 per cent. bonds and the Erie road con- summatins negotiations for the sale of S7,00000O of Erie and Jersey railroad 6 per cent
 Further accessfons to the large cash holdings of local banks are indicated by weekly forecasts, there having been a large inflow on the interior. Foreign exchange failed to reflect un- usual foreign happenings, renittances to London and the continent being steady.
 Bonds were reactionary, some issues making wide fluctuations. Total sales (par value) aggregated $2,575,- GOO

F KIDNEYS AND
 BLADDER BOTHER
Take glass of Salts to flush out your Kidneys and neutralize irri-
 tating acids.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid. says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irritate and inf1ame, causing burning, sCaldinE sensation. or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with a scaidiRg sensation and is very prOfuse; again, there is difficulty in avoiding it.
 Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they cant control trina ton. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Ciets about four ounces of lad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful in a glass ot water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neu-, tralize the acids in the urine so it no bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again.
 lad Salts is inexpensive harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice. combined with Iithia. and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irritation. Jad7 Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever.
 Here you have a pleasant, efferVes- cent Hthia water drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble.

PLENTY OF BASEBALL FOR
 NEW ENGLAND FANS.
Feds Threaten to Put Teams in the Field That Will Outclass Anything in Class B.

If all plans go through and neither side is bluffing, New England fans are apt to be well supplied with base balll the coming season. In fact we are liable to get more than a fill. The F'ederaIs say they will come into New England with a league which will in every city represented in the inde- eTn association or a New England league club. This means that organiz- ed ball and Federal league will inhabit the same territory and will work in operation during. the 1915 season. It is believed that the FederalS still have an idea that the two minor o. B. leagues in this section will quit cold before the opening time in the sprng and leave the territory for independent 1 baseball. On the other hand President l Jim O'ROUrGe wants HIS to believe
 that the Federals are only blufTing and | will not open up shop. He feels that the Feds tried to throw a scare into 1 Q. B. by meeting a cauple of days pre- 1 yious to the directors of the Eastern 1 association and making a lot of noise about plans for the season. He points
 l out to the fact the Fed have dnoe nothing yet buh houd a meeting and i talk over plans with several promoters i from various sections of New England and say they will announce their plans in three or four weeks. It is true the Feds have done nothing yet that has put them to any great expense of 8

GOLF HITS HARD
 BLOW TO BASEBALL.
Popularity ef Sport Takes Away In- tereSt Prem National Game All Over the Country.

Golf has delivered the coffers of the big league magnates 9 harder waIlop than the general business depression, the European war or any of the other causes given for the falling off in the 1914 ball game attendance.
 Golf is wearing the folks away from baseball. Ten years ago-even three years. The golf fever has ravaged the years ago there weren't many golfers The golf fever has ravaged the nation most in the last two years. The golf devotees numbered probably 5000 or 10000 fifteen years ago. The estimates of the golfers in the United States to- day range up to 100000.
 In other years when the American business man couldn't tear himself away from his regular chores during the summer time he would hustle out to the ball parks. Now the once time fan who is a. golfer skids past the ball park and hustles out to the links so as to get in IS holes before sundown.
 Watching a baseball game is good sport and 1t is thrilling, but man who loves baseball and golf at the same time usually loves golf the more Baseball to a, golfer, is only baseball but golf is 8. heaven sent pastime.
 In every big league town at least 300 men who used to be regular at tendants at the ball games now go golfing. The figure may go higher probably may reach 1000 a. day The loss of 300 fans at each game means a, total loss of 2,400 a day.
 Over a seasons stretch of 154 games it will be seen that at the rate of ?. 400 a day a total of nearly 400. 0.OOO fans are weaned away from baseball gn1es by golf. At 75 cents head it means that the total money loss for a season Is S300.00O.
 Split among the 16 clubs in the or ganized majors makes averages near nGi fSo 1F, ,T,, f-- cause golf has stolen away some of the fan.
