Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp-Root, Dr.. Kilmer's Prescrip-
ton, 0vercOmeS Kidney Trouble

1t is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs 70 a re-
markable degree and do a tremendous
amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
filtering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some as
sistance when needed. We take less ex-
ercise, drink less water and often eat
more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing
the kidneys to do more work than nature
intended. Evidence of kidney trouble,
such as lame back, annoying bladder
troubles, smarting or burning, brick
dust or sediment, sallow complexion,
rheumatism, maybe weak or irregular
heart action, warns you that your kid
neys require help Immediately to avoid
more serious trouble.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as a kidney and
bladder remedy is DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. There is nothing else like it. 1t
is DR.. Kilmer's prescription used in pri-
vate practice and it is sure to benefit you.
Get a bottle from your druggist.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kiimer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

Jefferson City.

Estimates on the Missouri corn
yield for 1916 call for 146,000,0O0
bushels, according to the crop report
issued by w. L. Nelson, assistant sec
rotary Of the state board of agricul-
ture. The report is as follows:
Corn-Official crop reporters of the
state board of agriculture place the
condition of Missouri corn at 64.8, and
estimate that SO per cent of the crop
is now safe from killing frost. This
is a more optimistic report than was
made on September /, when the con-
dition of corn was given as 53.4, with
grave fears of heavy damage from
frost. At that time the indicated
yield of corn was for but 135,000,000
bushels, but it was also stated that
with a seasonable September and
late frost, later figures should show
material increase over the prelimi-
nary estimate-an increase now
placed at 100000 bushels.
Wheat-Based upon the most re-
cent reports of correspondents, the
Missouri wheat acreage for the 1917
harvest will be about 100000 or
about 100000 more than was indicated
on September l. This, however, will
be the smallest acreage for many
years-12 per cent less than that seed
ed for the 1916 harvest. Fields were
plowed too wet in 1916, the ground is
hard, and a vast amount of work is
required to get it in shape for seed
ing. In some sections it has been
practically impossible to break and
prepare stubble ground. The result is
that a very large per cent of the
wheat crop is going in on corn
ground, which in most cases is work
ing well. The poor yield Of wheat for
the 1916 harvest, the present high
price of seed and the difficulty of get
ting the ground in condition are in,
fluences in the present decreased
acreage. By sections, October / seed
ing shows: Northeast, 46; northwest,
So; central, As; southwest, so; south
east, %. Present acreage estimates
for the 1917 crop, as compared with
the previous year, are as follows:
Northeast, 81 per cent; northwest,
104; central, 81; southwest, 80; south
east, 20. With sufficient rainfall at
once, and this followed by fair wealth
er, these figures may be raised.
Other Crops-The harvest of tim
othy seed, of good quality, will aver
age about "a bushels per acre. The
clover seed crop has been cut some
what short and may not average bet
ter than is bushels. Potatoes are
about 60 per cent; tobacco, 81. Con-
dition of cotton is 67, but the short
age in yield will be made up in re-
turns by the increased price. Rye
acreage is Sc per cent. Condition of
cowpeas is II; alfalfa, 70.
Live Stock-Pastures are poor and
much live stock is now being fed new
corn. There is a scarcity of stock on
most farms. But little hog cholera
is reported.

Is Missouri Doubtful

Missouri seems to be considered
doubtful by both parties. The ablest
speakers of the state and of the ma
ton are out on the firing lines. Never
before have the Republicans made
such a fight in this state to carry
its electoral vote and never before
have the Democrats made such a
fight to hold it's vote In the Demo
ccratic column-the loss OF the state
in 1904 and in 1908, and the~fact that
in 1912 the Wilson vote did not equal
the combined vote of Roosevelt and
Taft in Missouri have forced and is
forcing the Democrats to overlook no
move which might help them to a
victory.

How many people realize the sensa-
tlonal development that the pneumatic
tire business has experienced? The
first company to undertake the manu-
facture of pneumatic tires was the
Dunlop Company, organized at Dub
lin, Ireland, in 1889, with a capital of
about $4,000 to make tires for bicy-
Giles, and it rapidly grew to be a great
business. Then came the automobile
to add its demands, and today, only
twenty-seven years later, the pneu-
matte tire business Of the world is esti-
mated at the enormous sum of $780,

Corporations Remiss.

Five hundred and thirty-five St.
Louis corporations have failed to COM
ply with the statute requiring each in
corporated company to report to the
secretary of state before July 1 Of
each year the amount of its capital,
assets and liabilities and to furnish
affidavit that it is not a trust or COM
bination in restraint of trade.
Recorder of Deeds Joy, who is re-
Quired to give the corporations notice
of their delinquency, said that officers
of many concerns declared that they
had never been notified by the secre-
tary of state that reports were due.
The statute is more than 10 years old.
Failure to file a report within 80
days after July makes the corpora
ton liable to the payment Of fee of
So to the secretary of state. Further
delays increase the penalties, the
maximum being custer from the state.

Reorganization Plan.


The reorganization plan for the Mis-
souri, Pacific and st. Louis & Iron
Mountain railroad systems was pre-
scented to the state public service COM
mission by B. +. Bush, receiver for the
property, and attorneys representing
the roads and the New York banking
houses that will undertake the re-
financing plan. 1t was stated that all
interests, excepting the holders of
bonds of $3,000,0OO supposed to be in
Germany, have assented to the plan.
The commission was told that one
system under a Missouri charter will
be made out of the 1000 miles of the
two lines. Paul d. Cravath of New
York declared the Missouri Pacific
had been forced into receivership
because of bad financing and not be-
cause of the roads earning capacity
had decreased. He stated that a syn
dictate has underwritten $48,000,0O0 in
cash. or as much of that amount as
may be needed, to take up the $780,
100000 of gold bonds, and also to pay
off some 100000 of interest now
due.
