hurts or Bladder bothers.

We are a nation of meat eaters and
our blood Is filled with uric acid. says
a wellknown authority, who warns us
to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork: they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps of lead, and you have sting
ing pains In the back or the urine is
cloudy. full of sediment, or the blad
der is irritable, obliging you to seek
relief during the night; when you have
severe headaches, nervous and dizzy
spells, sleeplessness, acid stomach or
rheumatism in bad weather. get from
your pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts: take tablespoonful in
glass Of water before breakfast each
morning and In few days your kid
neys will act fine. This famous salts
Is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice. combined with lithia, and
has been used for generations to flush
and stimulate clogged kidneys. to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so it is no
longer source Of irritation, thus end
ing urinary and bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferves-
cent Whitewater drink, and nobody

First Duty Of . City.

A city is in reality q kind Of appa-
ratus or mechanism consisting Of
fixed places in which to live, work
and be amused. with means Of trans
portation Of products to and from de-
sired points.
The first duty Of the city is to fur
nish free means Of access, belong
ing to the public, to the private prop
.erty of each individual. Such ave-
nues Of communication in the rural
districts are called roads and are
widely separated, but In cities they
are multiplied and called streets. It
must always be possible. and It is
possible. for q citizen to take to the
highways and reach without inter-
ference the land sof1any other citizen
throughout the United States.

ting what it has a right to expect in
the way of road improvement. It is
well to remember that If for any rea-
son an Incompetent man is placed In
charge of the work the responsibility
for failure rests upon the community.
There should be no other consideration
therefore in selecting road overseer
than that Of securing man with the
ability to perform the duties required.
It should be realized that good roads
have much to do with the prosperity
of a community and that united ac-
ton in the right direction is the surest
and quickest way to secure them.
Where the road overseer has had but
little experience in road work or where
some new and difficult problem is pre-
sented to the experienced man the Of
fee Of public roads and rural engineer
ing Of the department Of agriculture
when requested will offer advice and
suggestions for carrying on the work
and how best to overcome the dim-
culties.
To secure satisfactory road of any
type it is absolutely necessary to re-
member: First, drainage; second, drain
age, and, third, drainage. The earth
road, properly cared for, will answer
satisfactorily for the traffic Of many
rural sections that cannot afford the
better types of roads, but the earth
road must bezwell drained. After this
fact is well understood two other re-
quirements may be taken up-the To-
cation Of the road and the reduction
of grades to general average Of per
cent.
With the exception Of sandy roads,
which are easiest for travelling when
damp. all roads must have proper side
bitches to carry away the surface wa
ter. In order to lead this surface wa
ter to the ditch the, road surface must
have a crown, or rounded roof, highest
in the center and sloping toward the
side ditches A very easy and satisfac,
tory way to keep earth, clay and
gravel roads crowned by the use Of
the split log drag is explained In
Farmers Bulletin 597, copies of which
may be obtained upon application to
the department.
After the road has been crowned and
the crown is kept in condition by the
wise use Of the road drag 1t should be
seen to that bitches are kept free from
weeds. etc.. and that they are deep
enough to carry of the water which
runs into them. In most cases wide.
shallow ditch is best. Deer bitches
are dangerous to traffic At spaces Of
every few hundred feet along the road.
way culvert Of some kind should be
placed to carry away the water which
has gathered in the bitches.
A road properly built generally will
not have an average grade Of more
than 8 per cent. By "per cent Of
grade" is meant the number Of feet the
road rises or Climbs for every 100
feet Of its length. On a road of per
cent grade the horses need pull the
load up a rise Of only i foot for every.
100 feet they travel. It has been found
that where horse can pull full load
on level ground he Is able to pull only
one-half that load on a 5per cent grade
and only one.fourth that load on a 10
per cent grade. More. trips must be
made to and from market on a road
with just one bad hill In order to haul
the same amount that can be hauled
at one trip on, level road.
