MEAT SCARCER, HENCE
 DEARER.

Bulletins sent to The Graphic by the United States department of agricul- ture says that the production of meat throughout the nation must needs be increased considerably if the present tendencies of high prices in the cities is to be checked.
 At first blush, high meat prices sounds well to cattle raisers in South east Arkansas; but cattle raisers should realize that the higher meat prices soar in the cities the less of Il is bought and the less of demand there is for cattle. Also, that the cat. tie raisers do not as rule get the benefit of high meat prices-not by jugfull, as there are too many itching palms between the cattle range h grazing field and the consumers tables.
 The bulletins state that more cattl' for butchering purposes could witl profit be raised in the East. In ad dition, it is stated that there shoul' be a slow increase in the output Q beef and mutton in the range states 0 the West, one bulletin states. The in crease referred to, however, is likei. to be accompanied by an increase I the cost of production in the far Western states.
 Another bulletin states that ther is no reason why more extensive cat tie raising does not take place in tn South, especially to take care o Southern home consumption.
 Better methods and more efficier utilization of available forage is give as one reason why more meat animal will be produced in the near future.

Edward Gray of Sank City, one OF
the contestants in the auto races at
the Sank County fair last month, does
not feel satisfied with the result Of
the races, and wishes to try conclu-
sions again with r. w. Prothero, the
winner of the contests held in Bara-
boo. With that end in view, it is said
that Mr. Gray has challenged Mr..
Prothero to race him again at the
fair grounds as soon as satisfactory
arrangements can be made. The To-
cal speed king is busy getting his
racer in shape and indications point
to a track record being made at the
fair grounds in the near future.
A few days ago Wendell Rosa, who
lives on Debello Ridge, in Richland
county, had four sheep killed by
dogs, but he couldn't find the owner
of the dog. The next night he set a
trap by one Of the sheep and cap
tured the dog, which enabled him the
next morning to find the owner.
The highway in Greenfield, just
before reaching the Falkenstern mill,
is being made straight, and a new
bridge is being erected over the creek.
The old road makes a d(just be-
fore reaching the mill in going from
| BarabOO, and when completed the
bend will not be there. The dam at
the mill has gone out several times
and played havoc with the bridges
and highway just below. The new
bridge is long one, and is thought
| to be above high-water mark. The
hill on the curve is very sandy and
since there are many automobiles 60
ing to Durward's Glen, the new i'm
provement will be greatly appreciat-
ed. Years ago the old road was Sc
lected in order to accommodate a
family which resides there no longer.
The state of Wisconsin last year
paid out $4,000 to give country school
boys and girls free rides to school.

THE NEWEST REnEDY
FOR
Backache, rheumatism and Dropsy.

Kidney, Bladder and Uric Acid troubles
bring misery to many. When the kidneys
are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse the blood sufficiently. and
the poisonS are carried to all parts of the
body There follow depression, aches
and pains, heaviness, drowsiness, irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness ard rheu-
matism. In some people there are sharp
pains in the back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstin-
ate dropSy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones. When
the uric acid affects the muscles and
joints, it causes lumbago, rheumatism,
govt or scfatica. This is the time to try
" Anuric." Send 1Oc. for trial package.
During digestion uric acid is absorbed
into the system from meat eaten, and
even from some vegetables. The poor
kidneys get tired and backache begins.
This is good time to take "Anuric,"

ment or settling sometimes indicates kid

Bill For Legal Work
Needed Would Be
Enormous
MEANS REVAMPING
OF LIQUOR LAW
Gigantic Task Would
Face Supreme
Court

LANSING, Mich, Nov. What
It will cost the state Of Michigan TO
pass the wet home rule amendment
has been figured out by an ottawa
lowing statement 10 the Michigan
dry campaign committee:
There are on the statute books
of Michigan more than 100 sections
relative 10 the conduct of liquor
traffic. which cover at least - pages
in the statute books.
THE supreme court of Michigan
has rendered more than 500 opin-
ions constituting the applying the
laws on this subject. At a very con
servative estimate each case must
have entailed an expense of at least
$500 This makes a total OF $3.50.
000 which is probably less than
one-half the true amount.
Now. II the fake Home rule
amendment carries. it will be neces-
sary for the supreme court. under
the last paragraph OF the amend
ment, to re-construe each and every
section as applied 10 different cir
cumstances and determine what the
law is. and probably more than
one-half Of these laws will be found
unconstitutional.
What will happen 10 Michigan in
the meantime II has taken the su.
preme court half a century to set
tie the law as il now is. The home
rule experiment would be expensive
in more ways than one"
