Clay County Fair

The Clay County Fair will be-
gin Oct. 4th. and will hold three
days. This is one of the things
that will help the citizens of Clay
county more than any other one
thing. Its people are working
hard to make the Fair a success,
and the citizens of Knox county
should attend and lend a helping
hand.
Uiay county has some as fine
took as there is to be found any
where and its resources are in
eXhaustable. They have fine
farming lands and their farm eN-
hibits will be right up to the
standard. Not only do they have
this, but they have the cleverest
people to be found, there is moth
ing too good for you when YOU go
to their homes, and they have
that old time hospitality that
makes you feel that you are right
home when you are among
them.
The c. & M. train will run in
3 miles of the Fair grounds and
there will be ample provisions to
get to the town of Manchester in
a hurry as soon as the tram
makes its stop.

WOMEN SHRINK
FROM MODESTY
Bear GrievOus Ailments
Rather Than Make Con-
ditiOns Known.

The subjects of complaints Pc
culiar to women is a delicate one
yet it is a plain duty to let these
sufferers know that most of the
arrangements from which they
suffer are due primarily to ner-
vous debility.
Many a suffering woman, in
fluenced by shrinking modesty,
has borne this grievous condition
without complaint rather than
make a personal appeal. When
women say, Il am all run down
so nervous and weak" that
means they are victims of the
modern malady.
Such women, and they are a
legion in every community, suffer
from headaches, backaches, loss
of appetite and sleeplessness.
Their spirits are alw avs depress-
ed and their lives are not the
formally happy ones of their
more fortunate sisters. Often,
too, there are spells of nausea,
weakness, or even fainting, that
makes them feel insecure and to
wonder when they will be en-
barrassed. or even in danger, be-
cause Of their condition.
For such suffering women Tan
lac. the tonic. tissue builder, ap-
petizer, and invigorant, is ideal.
Tanlac builds up the system, pro-
notes digestion and propore as
stimulation of food, vitalizes the
blood and brings back healthy
color to the cheeks and real spark
lie to the eyes.
Tanlac may now be obtained in
Barbourville at the Herndon Drug
Co.'S, where its merits are fully
explained.

WHEN YOU WAKE
UP DRINK GLASS
OF HOT WATER
Wash the polsons and toxins from
system before putting more
food into stomach.
Says Ins!de-bathIng makes any
one look and feel clean,
sweet and refreshed.

Wash yourself on the inside before
breakfast like you do on the outside.
This is vastly more important because
the skin pores do not absorb impurl-
these into the blood, causing illness,
while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce of food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounces of waste material must be car
ried out of the body. If this waste
material is not eliminated day by day
it quickly ferments and generates poi
sons, gases and toxins which are alb
sorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts
which should suck only nourishment
to sustain the body.
A splendid health measure is TO
drink, before breakfast each day, a
glass of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in it,
Which is a harmless way to wash these
poisons, gases and toxins from the
stomach, liver. kidneys and bowels;
thus cleansing, sweetening and fresh
ening the entire alimentary canal be-
fore putting more food into the stom-
ach.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate costs but very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to make any one

USE AUTO POWER
Farmers Can Run Machinery
With Motor Car Engine.
Trailers Make Cars Easy Means
of Transportation.

Manhattan, Kan. Sept 11-Be-
cause of various attachments now on
the market the farmers automobile
can not only be used as a solution of
some OF the rural transportation prob
lens, but also as a useful and con-
venlent power plant, points out F. A.
writ instructor in farm mechanics in
the Kansas State Agricultural college.
The purchase of a trailer makes
possible the transI orting of milk,
cream, garden truck, and even chick
ems to market" says Mr.. Writ. THE
tra1lers, which are of various designs
are manufactured by more than a doz-
en- companies. The engine of the av-
erage automobile is sci ON worked to
capacity and consequently there is
plenty of tractive power to take care
of the light trailer
Attachments are now being manu-
featured, at a low price, which will
transform several of the more popular
makes of cars into power plants. A
series of gears and shafting has been
devised which operates pulley on the
front of the car, and makes it possible
to turn farm machinery.
One of the smaller cars most popu-
lar on the market will develop about
twelve horse power on the brake,
and is consequently more than strong
enough for the average work required
CT farm engine. Most ia mers use a
gas engine of five or six horse power.
Run Several at Once.
It is not economical to use a
twelve horse power engine for furnish
ing power to a washing machine or a
pump. 1t is best to have a system of
shafting which can be arranged 20
drive several pieces of machinery
simultaneously. Corn shelters, feed
grinders, tanning mills, and other
small pieces of farm machinery can be
connected with the syf-em of shafting.
IF there is small electric power
plant with storage batteries on the
farm the automobile engine can be
made effective in charging the bat
teries at times when the car is not in
other use,' says Mr.. Writ, but it
would not be economical to use the
cars engine to store electrical energy
in the battery, and then use the cleo
tricity to drive small individual motors
attached to the smaller pieces of ma
chinery, excepting the washing ma
chine, sewing machine, and the like.
The overhead charges are too heavy"
Judgment should be exercised in
utilizing the automobile as power
plant or a loss of efficiency will re-
suit.

TRANSPORT JAP BABIES
High Cost of Living in L. s. Cause for
Shipping Infants to Japan.

Toxic, Sept. 11.-Attention is being
called here to the growing success of
what is known as the Baby Carrier"
business between the United States
and Japan. The essence of the idea
is the bringing to Japan of Japanese
babies born in the United States in
order that they may be brought up in
this country and receive their educa-
ton here.
over three thousand babies, it is
estimated, are born every year to
Japanese families in California. Many
families are anxious to have their chill
dren reared in Japan but are finan-
cially unable to bring the babies home.
Consequently hundreds of babies are
brought here by carriers. On each
trip the carrier-a Japanese man or
a Japanese man with his wife-brings
from five to fifteen babies and dis
tributes them in all parts of the en-
pire, usually at the home of the grand
parents.
Masumi Yoshimi, one of those who
conceived the carrier project, says:
The only danger is mixing up the
babies hut l have solved that by keep
ing an identification card constantly
tied around the neck of each child"

Kansas Female Wage Farmers
Have No Complaint.
Minimum Salary Is Sc a Week
Turnout State.
FEW GIVEN AS HIGH AS $50
And Many Women Receive $25
and $35 Saturday Night.
Information To Be Placed Be-
fore State Commission.

Kansas women wage earnerS are
well paid according to report being
prepared by Miss Lima Bresette OF
the state welfare commission. Based
on returns from all sections of the
state Miss Bresette has learned that
the minimum wage in the state is
about Sc a week except to novices and
beginners. The lowest wages reported
in the state are SO a week
Information now being compiled by
Miss Bresette will be used by the state
commission in the establishment of
maximum hour and minimum wage
rules for women. In Topeka last
by the welfare commission, recon-
mended nine-hour day for women.
1t also provided that the nine hours
of labor must be performed in a ten
hour period and that under no cir
cumstances would women be permit
ted to work later than 9 o'clock at
night nor more than six days in any
week.
Complaint on Wages.
There is little opposition in the state
to the maximum hour rule, Miss Bre-
settle declares. Less than a dozen
strenuous complaints have been made
by Kansas merchants and shop keep
ers The real grievance concerns a
minimum wage The average mer-
chant is willing to close his store or
office early provided his competitor
complies with the same rule. But the
matter of wages is a personal affair
and the merchant wants to debate the
matter.
In contrast to the low wages paid
women workers in some lines of BUSH
ness, Miss BreSettes reports show that
in other instances women receive as
high as $50 a week. A number of
cases have been reported where wom-
en- wage earners receive weekly pay
checks of $25 and $40 week. A
smaller number receive $40 a week
and a few cash $50 a week pay checks
These large checks go to a small
per cent of the states wage earners
and are paid only to the most COM
petent and efficient store or depart
ment managers or saleswomen.

BUILD CARNEGIE LIBRARY.
Garden City Will Have Fine Structure
Donor Approved Plans.

Library association of this city is adj
vertising for bids for the construc-

ing to be erected on the east side of
Main street just north of the park.
The erection of this building has
been under consideration for some
time but the plans have but just been
approved by Mr.. Carnegie, whose
agent writes that the money to pay
for it will be sent as soon as the con-
tract is let.
Garden City has operated public
library with some 1900 volumes for
a number of years but has never pos
sessed a suitable room for the pur-
pose. The handsome structure that is
planned will be a desirable addition to
the city's public buildings.

Kansas Has Smallest Number
in Fourteen Years.
But Prices Are Higher, J. C.
MOhler Points Out.
IN SHAWNEE COUNTY, 1887
Washington i'm Lead With
Nearly $4,000 Head.
Entire Hog Population i'm State,
March, 1,573,945.

The number of hogs, in Kansas
March 1, 1916 was 1.573,945, accord
ing to official returns of assessors to
the state board of agriculture which
were compiled today. This is a de-
crease of 233,518 head, or approx
mately 10 per cent in the twelve
months and is the smallest number in
fourteen years, excepting 1914 when
the number was less than 122, 900 it
was pointed out in report issued by
j. c. Mohler, secretary of the state
board of agriculture. The greatest
number of hogs reported for Kansas
in any one year was 2,766,07 in 1898,
the report shows. The report follows:
While hogs are fewer, prices are
higher. All former records at Kansas
City have been broken by the high
prices paid for hogs this year, and the
present market at that point stands
around $1,000 to $11 per hundred
pounds. At such prices the producers
or pork are reaping a golden harvest
and the hog is adding fresh laurels to
his long established and enviable
reputation as a mortgage litter. In
creased prices will in a measure if not
wholly offset the lack of numbers, so
! far as gross income from the states
porkmaking operations are concerned,
compared with former years.
Corn Is Mainstay
CAS- is well known, corn is the main
stay in fattening hogs and in this con-
nection it is interesting to note that
the principal corn producing counties
of Kansas are also the chief hog rails
ers. In hog population Washington
county leads this year with 48,292
head. Jewell is second with 46.765.
The other ten leading counties, in or
der, are as follows: Butler, 43,11O;
Marshall, 40,919; Nemaha, 4O,656:
Smith, 38,493; Cowley, 5000; Repub-
lie, 35,055; Sedgwick, 33,354; Dickin-
son, 1853; Pottawatomie, 81, 654, and
Brown with 30,22S.
These twelve counties aggregate in
hogs ass, 561 head, or 29 per cent
of the total number for the state, and
last year their total production of
corn amounted to 44,869,760 bushels,
or BIS per cent of the states cron.
There was big surplus of corn grown
in Kansas in 1915, as indicated by the
81, 81 ,434 bushels reported on hand
March 1, this year, Smith county lead
ing with 2,304,678 bushels on hand
and Jewell county next, with 1,759,-
$40 bushels. These counties, it will be
observed, are among the prominent
hog producers. Much of the held-over
corn, high-priced as it was, has been
profitably fed to hogs.

of swine on hand in Kansas March 1 .
