 More Producers Needed.
 Tt is obviously desirable that there should be more producers. For years I have studied this aspect and I have come to the conclusion that the fu- ture of England and it's dominions, and might also say of the western world, depends on the land dweller. We want to get more land dWellers, more country villages, more country homes Look at Aus tralasiar Think for a ment how many millions could be happy and thrive within its limits"
 Sir Rider declared that to turn the people out in raw country and bid them make a living out of if was i useless, and it was equally foolish ito set them at distance from railroads Settlement" he said, must become a scientific pursuit and must be thor oughly we'll thought out beforehand by responsible governments or great business concerns"

kEURALGIA'S ONE SYMPTOM

Neuralgia is disease which has but one symptom-pain.
 The pain of neuralgia is sharp and shooting with intervals of freedom.
 An attack of neuralgia does not give immunity but occurrences are the rule The same nerve is generally affected which means that this particular nerve has lost it's resistance and that there will be recurring attacks until the strength of the nerve is built up.
 How can the strength of a nerve be restored? The nerves are nourished en- tirely by the blood and weak nerves are toned up by supplying to the blood the elements that the nerves lack. As the general health and strength of the patient are built up the nerves resume their normal functions, inflammation caused by lack of nutrition disappears and the neuralgia attacks cease.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills are a tonic exceptionally we'll suited for the treat ment of neuralgia because they contain no alcohol, stimulating or habit-form- ing drugs. The tonic treatment with these pills is we'll worth trial by any sufferer from neuralgia
 Write today for booklet on nervous disorders to the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, N. Y. Your own druggist sells the pills or they will be sent postpaid at 50 cents per box.

German Women Protest Against Con-

Correspondence of the Asso. Press>.
 Cologne, May 24-Disappointed that both personal and official pleas and warnings have had little or no affect the Woman's Alliance of Col ogne and thirty-five associated wom- ems associations and organizations have petitioned the governor of the fortress to issue a decree forbidding the wearing of highheeled shoes, wife flowing, short skirts and other apparel that has been smuggled in from countries at war with Germany or that is patently a copy of foreign mode and fashion.
 Tt shows a lack of patriotism and is a disgrace for German women,' - says the petition in part, that many go about in clothing which by it's striking, frivolous nature mocks the earnest sentiment that rules among the people at this time of manifold need and severe personal suffering" The petition declares that luxury of a noticeable sort in clothing is noth- ing put an insult to the unfortunate and is unworthy of the German wom- an at this time
 Since all the pleas of sensibIv thinking people, as we'll as the of ficial cautions, have been without result concludes the petition, i've ask the governor to take steps against the above-named evils.'

ALMIGHTY DOLLAR IS LESS MIGHTY
Decreasing in Value at Stockholm
 Because Of Trade Conditions

Correspondence of the Asso. Press.l
 Stockholm, May 1.-The American dollar has been steadily declining in value on the Scandinavian bourses until on May 10 the drop represented a loss of 12 per cent. more than half of which has occurred in the last two months. The normal value of the dollar in Stockholm and the other Scandinavian capitals is kroner and 73 ore. It was quoted today on change at 3.2S, whereas only 3.20 was paid at banks on American dol lar drafts.
 This condition is partly accounted for by the fact that the Germans have recently dumped a great quantity of American money and bills receivable on the Stockholm market. It is be- lieved however, that it is principally due to the falling off in American trade during the past six months ow- ing to the difficulty and danger in transferring money caused by the tightening of the British blockade. The seizure and holding up of mails also is a factor.
 Letters reaching Stockholm today were mailed in New York seven weeks ago. As mails to America are stopped also by the British patrol boats and the letters censored in Eng land merchants must figure on three and a half months on an exchang> of letters. This makes is practically inn possible to transact business in this way.
 The English pound sterling has been leading the dollar downward. From the normal Is kroner and 20 ore if was quoted today at 15.42, while still less was paid on exchange, a loss of more than 5 per cent. German marks showed a loss of more than 30 per cent. They have dropped from a normal price of 90 kroner per hum dred to 60.SO. The Russian ruble and the Austrian crown are worth to- day about half their normal value. <nd the French franc is 25 per cent under par.

Must Increase Whites

In his speeches here Sir Rider has asked how it will be possible to hold the British empire together if every possible step is not taken to ensure an increase of it's white population. To-day the empire covers fully one fourth of the entire globe,' he said, "and it is held by about 60000,0O0 white people, of whom about 40,000,- 900 dwell in the United Kingdom. It is just all that we can do to hold the empire with that population of. white people. With that population de creased I doubt if we could hold it.
 It seems to me therefore that each component part of the empire should take every possible step to ensure an
