How To Prevent
Acid StOmaChs And
Food Fermentation
By a New York Physician.

"My experience has forced me to the
conclusion that most people who com
plain of stomach trouble possess stom-
achs that are absolutely healthy and
normal. The real trouble that which
causes all the pain and difficulty, is
excessive acid in the stomach, aggra-
waited by food fermentation. Hyper
acidity irritates the delicate lining of
the stomach abnormally, causing that
full bloated feeling. Thus both acid
and fermentation interfere with and
retard the process of digestion. The
stomach wall is usually healthy and
normal, but irritated almost past en-
durance by these foreign clements
acid and wind. In all cases-and they
comprise a great majority of all stom-
ach difficulties-the first and only step
necessary is to neutralize the acid and
stop the fermentation by taking in a
little warm or cold water Immediately
after eating, from one to two teaspoon
fuls of bisurated magnesia, which is the
most effective antacid and food cor
rective | have ever found. The ex-
cess acid will be neutralized and the
fermentation stopped almost instantly,
and your stomach will at once proceed
to digest the food in a healthy normal
manner. Be sure to ask your druggist
for bisurated magnesia rather than
magnesiaS in anv other form.b

ANOTHER VIEW OF
MIR. CHAPIN'S WORK

If this is the greatest agricultural
valley in the world as Mr.. Peterson
states, why do we need book expert

have farmed for years, without his
help, and far more successfully in the
Ajority Of cases, than we have since
taking mis- advice
What we need is more sociability be.
tween farmer and merchant,
The money paid out for county ag'
riculturst's salary could be- used ia
much better advantage for the farmers
if expended to maintain clearing
house produce building which would
handle the farmers products in such d
way as to be more profitable to the
farmer as well as the consumer.
If this S2i is to be used to benefit
the farmers, why not use it for the
benefit of all, instead of for favored
few in the northern part of the coun
ty. | believe it would be only fan
to allow the farmers to vote on thi'
question before using their money fol

INFORMATION THAT DOES NOT INFORM

railroad report Of its earnings and expenses is ABOUT
as hard for the unntated to understand as the time

Northern Pacific has just filed with the Oregon Public
Utility Commission its report for the year ending June
80 1915.
1t states that it's gross earnings, it states it,
ts operating revenues for the year, tOtaed
while expenses for railroad operations S31O8048
The net revenue from railroad operations was $26O636O3
This sounds all right and small sum in subtraction
shows the latter amount barring one dollar error is the
sum left after paying operating expenses Then the re-
port goes on to say that the gross income S32263
and the net income $18819040 The difference between
gross revenue the amount receved) and gross income
(aso the amount received) and the further difference
between net revenue (the amount and above eX-
penses and net income (aso the amount the above
expenses is too fine distinction for the average man to
understand AS experts in nomenclature the railroads
are certainly in class by themselves No doubt it is all
clear to those who made the report out and perhaps in
tegble to the Public Utility Commissioners since they
are experts along those lines but this report and all other
railroad literature is understandable by the gen
era public than the hieroglyphies cunefom tablets
of our remote ancestors.

One Good Job For Board Of
Trade Fire Protection
Committee

Among the various committees APP
pointed by President A. X. Jewett OF
the Skowhegan Board of Trade, one
Is charged with the study of fire pro-
lection. There are many things they
could profitably attempt and one al
least which would be comparatively
easy OF accomplishment. Counting
retail stores and Offices together
there are about 200 places of business
on Water Street and Madison Avenue
Some 40 of them have one or more
chemical fire extinguishers. Every
one of these is not only protection
to its owner but to all property in
the neighborhood. Why can't our
fire protection committee start cam
paign to induce everybody to put them
in? Think what 1t would mean. in
case of a fire in the business district
to have 200 volunteer firemen, each
with a chemical fire extinguisher, get
after it at the beginning. About the
same argument applies for introduce
ing them in the residential district,
but OF course along the business
street the fire hazard is of more con-
Germ.
These extingushers cost about
$3.50 when bought singly; 100 or
more in one lot would probably Sc
cure a quotation of $500. In this
connection it should be observed that
by vote of the town all extinguishers
are re-charged, upon request, at the
cost of the municipality. Those who
now own them or may hereafter put
them in, can take them to the fire de-
partment building and have them re-
charged without any trouble or ex-
pense The independence Reporter
has four of these extinguishers, but
would be willing to join in a cam
paign of this kind by taking a couple
more. Come on now Chairman Geo
H. Plummer and your associates OF
the fire protection committee, let's
put this job through.
