was to constitute a guarantee fund to
protect the bankers. Otherwise the plan
was in its essential principles like that
adopted i'm Montana.
None of these methods require more
than a temporary organization. A per-
manent cooperative credit association is,
of course, different matter, which has,
however, many advantages. Such as
sociations encourage habits Of savings,
afford training in business methods and
may establish a collective fund for COM
mon agricultural purposes as well as
providing loans individually. The fun
damental principle OF their management
is that no loan must be granted unless
the committee in charge believes that
the member and the association will
both be benefited The funds for the
loans may be secured through payments
on shares, through deposits, and by bor-
rowing from outside sources. Associa-
tions doing business of this sort, howev-
er, are subject TO statutory regulations

Slowly but Surely Forging

OFFICIAL REPORT
TELLS OF WORK
Of Individuals Of Great Gu
mulative Military
Value

London, April There was given out
in London yesterday under date of April
s. British semi-weekly report on the
progress of hostitlities. 1t reads as fol-
lows:
''1he situation still remains quiet on
our front. A change in the weather linn
tied the possibilities of activity on the
part of our airmen.
EARLY in the morning of April we
successfully exploded mine under the
German trenches in the neighborhood of
La Bassee. A length of one hundred
yards of trenches and part of brick
stack were destroyed, and as a result
all German activity in the immediate
neighborhood was terminated. The Ger
man artillery, however, has subjected
our front in that quarter to heavy
bombardment.
son our extreme left the local supe-
riority obtained by our shippers has been
rewarded by the comparative immunity
with which the work on the front line
If trenches has been carried out. In
his connection it should be pointed out
hat although no reports have been sent
since March y. owing to the lack of
any incidents worthy of special mention,
vet individual activities have been of
daily and nightly occurrence along the
entire front. The general effect of these
activities, in which our troops continue
to show marked superiority, as already
recorded is cumulative and of great
military value"

and it is, of course, important that these
regulations be understood and observed
by the management.
A cooperative credit association must
not be considered as in any way sub
stitute for other banking institutions,
but rather as an ally of them. The de-
posits in such associations are frequent
" in such small amounts that it is un-
likely that they would be placed in a
regular bank. On the other hand the
total of these small sums is frequently
considerable and such part of it as is not
loaned to members of the association
is usually placed on deposit in the local
banks. In addition to the service which
the association can render to its individ-
ual members both by aiding them to OBJ
tain proper loans and by discouraging
them from making unwise ones, the as
ISOLATION can also be of service TO the
in number of ways, among
which collective purchasing is perhaps
the most prominent.

DIsAppRovES THRESHING OATS.
Writer Recommends That Entire Crop
Should be Fed.

/ believe the modern method of hand
ling and feeding is undoubtedly wrong
so far as the entire oats crop is concern
ed, SAYS a writer in the Indiana Farmer.
That is TO say, the modern method re-
quires the oats to be threshed. Then the
grain is fed, and the straw so far as
getting any good results as stock food
is largely loss. Horses, cattle and
sheep are all very fond of oats. When
either in sheaves or cut down and cured
ike meadow grasses and then put
through a straw cutter, stock eat up
cleanly both the grain and the straw. and
grow and fatten nicely with but little
other grain or hay. Animals are COM
PEELED TO eat the straw while getting
the grain. This straw gives bulk TO the
feed.
The time was when every farmer grew
large fields OF oats, and outside of what
was required for seed, the remainder OF
the crop was cut and fed to stock. In
the spring time the work horses were fed
literally on the cut oats, but during the
heavy work season chop" was made.
That is, after the oats. were cut, they
were dampened and mixed with fine
corn meal. wheat bran and mlddlngs. A
good ration OF oats so prepared, and
three to five ears OF corn, with some good
hay at night, kept the teams in good
flesh and strong for this hard labor.
Such a vast quantity Of food is pro-
duced 10 the acre. and the stock do so
we'll. that if farmers will quit thresh-
ing their oats, and feed the entire crop,
oats growing will find a better place,
and be more profitable than the present
method. For the milk cows, the chop
feed as recommended for the work horses
is found necessary. All know that
threshed oats, and then the straw baled
and sold, both together. fail to make oats
growing very profitable.

REPORT MANY CASES
OF RHEUMATISM NOW
Says We Must Keep Feet Dry; Avoid
Exposure and Eat Less
Meat

Stay off the damp ground, avoid expos
ure, keep feet dry, eat less meat, drink
lots of water and, above all, take a
spoonful of salts occasionally to keep
down uric acid.
rheumatism is caused by poisonous
toxin, called uric acid, which is general
ed in the bowels and absorbed into the
blood. 1t is the function of the kidneys
to filter this acid from the blood and cast
it out in the urine. The pores OF the
skin are also a means of freeing the
blood of this impurity. In damp and
chilly, cold weather, the skin pores are
closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do
double work, they become weak and slug
gish and fail to eliminate this uric acid,
which keeps accommodating and circulat-
ing through the system, eventually set.
Ting in the joints and muscles, causing
stiffness, soreness, and pain called rheu
matism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism, get
from any pharmacy about four ounces
of Jad Salts; put tablespoonful in a
glass of water and drink before break
fast each morning for week. This is
said to eliminate uric acid by stimulat-
ing the kidneys to normal action, thus
Kidding the blood Of these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and
is made from the acid of grapes and lem
on juice, combined with lithia, and is
used with excellent results by thousands
of folks who are subject to rheumatism.
Here you have pleasant, efferveseent,
lithia water drink, which overcomes uric
acid and is beneficial to your kidneys as
well,-Adyt.

ARoosrooK POTATOES ADVANCE.

Shortage at Shipping Center.

Caribou, Me-, April Potatoes in
Aroostook county advanced last week
from 80 cents to rs cents a barrel. This
is the first advance since last fall and
while ii is not expected to last very long,
the shippers will make the best of it.
The advance was caused by shortage
at the potato shipping centers, increas-
ing the demand suddenly, and potatoes
moved fast Thursday and Friday from
various Aroostook county points.
Shipments from Aroostook were heavy
during March, total of 1896 carloads
having been shipped over the Bangor &
Aroostook railroad during the month.
