Pullman, Wash. Friday, November IA, 1o15

again. There has been a bumper
crop in all the Northwestern states.
This crop in the Dakotas and Mon
tana has been phenomenal. No
sooner, however, was the crop
reaped and put in the shock or at
least soon after, the rains began.
The outcome has been, that thresh
ing was greatly delayed. Expensive
threshing outfits were idle in some
instances for two weeks at a time
The threshing crews had to be kept
in line meantime. The farmers were
kept virtually idle and also the
horses, when both should have been
busy turning over the ground for
the next years crop. This they could
not do, although the ground was
nicely moistened with the rain, for
the shocks which might have been
in the stack were yet in the field.
1t is peculiarly unfortunate when
such a condition meets the farm ers
of the Northwest. In 1912 the farm
ers lost heavily or at least very many
of them did, because of the rainy
weather after harvest. Where pro-
ceeds of that crop helped many it
did not help them nearly as much
as if they had saved it all. Now in
10
but it is much damaged by rain.
This means a lessened value in pro-
portion to the damage done. This
year again the crop will not mean to
these states what it ought to mean.
1t does not mean to them what it
would have meant had the grain
been stacked or threshed before the
bad weather came on.
Many will answer stacking was
impossible, owing to the scarcity of
labor. In some instances it was i'm
possible to stack it all, but part
could have been stacked. In other
instances, and these are greatly in
the majority, it was possible. 1t is
not because of the impossibility of
stacking that so much grain was left
unstacked, it was because the farm
ers felt that it called for less work
to thresh from the shock. Because
of this belief, which of course is well
founded, they preferred to take the
risk.
Can this risk be avoided? Assur-
eddy it can. How, it will be asked?
1t may be avoided first, in the case
of small farms, by stacking; or Sec
ond, by threshing with small ma
chine Machines for threshing are
now on the market that may be OBJ
tanned at a cost of not more than
$3.50. They will thresh, say 500
bushels a day. They can be run with
but few hands, probably not more,
in some instances, than half dozen.
Two or three farmers could run such
a machine. They could well afford
to own it and also to own the power
to run it, which need not be more
than, say eight to 10 horsepower. In
this way but little of the crop need
be lost.
That is one way of saving the
crop, but there is another and bet
ter way. II is to get much of the
land put into alfalfa, and to lay a
considerable proportion of it down

The coffee drinker who has suffered
and then been completely relieved by
changing from coffee to Postum knows
about it.
Il learned the truth about coffee in
peculiar way" says a California wom-
an. My husband who has, for years,
been of bilious temperament decided
to leave off coffee and give Postum a
trial, and as did not want the trouble
of making two beverages for meals l
concluded to try Postum, too. The re-
suits have been that while my husband
has been greatly benefited, have my
self received even greater benefit.
When l began to drink Postum i
was thin in flesh and very nervous.
Now l actually weigh 16 pounds more
than l did at that time and l am
stronger physically and in my nerves.
while husband is free from all his ails.
I'VE have learned our little lesson
about coffee and we know something
about Postum, too. for we have used
| Postum now steadily for the last three
years and we shall continue to do so.
I'VE have no more use for coffee

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur properly compound
ed. brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded. streaked

Nowadays we simply ask at any

large bottle for about so cents. Every
body uses this old, famous recipe, be-
cause no. one can possibly tell that
you darkened your hair. as it does it
SO naturally and evenly. You dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair. taking
one small strand at time; by morn
ing the gray hair disappears. and
after another application or two. your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years younger.

ADVANTAGE of SiIencer.

This crash of the bullet makes the
value of the Maxim silencer very little,
so far as military efficiency is con
cerned, in the way that the fiction
writer imagines the silencer to be use
full, but not to prevent the enemy from
discovering the position of the men
firing as many fancy.
Its value lies in the fact that 1t
eliminates fully half of the recoil of
the rifle from the action Of the gases
in its chambers, and it gives the Off
GERS much better control over the fire,
because of the lessened noise OF the
rifles. 1t cuts down the roar Of the
Springfield to about the noise 'of the
25-20 and thus the roar of the rifles
at the firing line is much reduced. and
the commands of the officers can be
heard.-Outing.

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER B0THERS
Harmless to Flush Kidneys and Neu-
traIize Irritating Acids-Splendid
for the System.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder.
where it often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing burning, scalding
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 scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get ab~ut four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take n tablespoonful in glass of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia-water drink. which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.-Adv.

Mining Man Shot From Ambush.

Walsenburg, Colo, Feb. 15.-William
Dick, 45. director of the First National
Bank of Walsenburg, one of the own
ers of the Oakview coal mine and a
partner in the ownership of the Huer-
fano and Pinon Trading Companies,
which supply chain of stores
throughout southern Colorado, was
shot from ambush and instantly killed,
four miles from Walsenburg, Saturday
afternoon, while driving to the Oak
view mine with $4,000 in cash to be
used in paying the. men.
Dick was at the wheel of big ma
chine when the shots were fired from
behind a bridge. about fifty feet away.
He was struck by the first bullet and
released his bold upon the wheel. The
reened. crashed through an irrigating
ditch and turned upon its side. The
assassins. who until that time had
been concealed behind tne bridge, then
ran to his side and searched his pock-
cts. The turning over Of the car un-
doubtedly saved the cash, as the
money was pinned beneath the rear
seat. where 1t had been concealed.
Gabriel l.. Murphy, Walsenburg liv.
eryman, was the only witness to the
crime. He was driving toward the
mine, about half mile behind Dick,
when he heard the shots. Looking up,
he saw the car dash from the road and
turn over. Two men, he says. sprang
from the bridge and ran to the
wrecked machine. Murphy then turned
his horse about and drove at break
neck speed to Walsenburg, where he
notified Sheriff Jeff Farr, and posses
were organized, which secured the
hills, and are believed to be closing in
on the assassins from three sides from
what is believed to be their hiding
place in the hills. The spot where the
killing took place is in an exceedingly
lonesome country, on the road to the
Oakview mine, and the slayers had
plenty of time for concealment In the
neighboring hills.
