COWS REQUIRE MUCH WATER
Practice Of Watering Herd But Once

they can be induced to drink twice or
three times a day, 1t should be done.
Cows need much water.
1t has been found that the average
mich COW requires about 81 pounds
of water a day while in milk (nearly
ten gallons), and about 81 pounds
while dry. OF this, the COW in milk
takes rather more than two-thirds
(say seven gallons) as drink, and the
rest In her food, while the dry COW
takes rather less than two-thirds as
drink, and little more than one-third
in the food.

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS

Harmless to Flush Kidneys and NeU
traliZe Irritating Aeids-Splendld
for the System.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
inaame, causing burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck Of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer Is In
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with a scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there Ia
difficulty in avoiding It.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
II, because they can't control urina-
ton. While 1t is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this In
really one Of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
Of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in glass OF
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids In the urine so It no
longer is source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with li.hia.
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts In
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have pleasant, efferves-
cent Whitewater drink, which quickly

A MAN TO FIT THE PLACE.

The secretary of stateship of Con- necticut is not what it was? It has been raised in dignity and responsi- bility by the automobile laws and now calls for a judicial mind instead of a political f1gurehead.
 The Hartford Times has the cour- age to notify the party managers that a different kind of man is needed for secretary of state in future than has been necessary heretofore, because he must hold hearings and render judgments somewhat after the manner of the judges of courts.
 This is true. And the increased in terest which these new traffic rules have created in the proper filling of the office, will prompt the interests to quietly impress upon the political candidate makers that the honor of holding the office in future must de- pend upon recognized efficiency of Q different type.
 The secretary of state today has a closer relation to the people than ever before, and in a degree is commission ed as their protector through the proper administration of the motor vehicle law.
 Everybody is interested in having Q. man in this office who will be fear less and just in his rulings and de- Cisions.

WHAT WAS HER MIssIoN?

Some Americans have the temeTity to raise the question as to what the mission of the Deutschland to this country really was.
 There Is no mystery concerning the visible cargo she brought or the visi- bIe cargo she is taking away.
 The question is as to the real pur- pose of this submarine merchantmen. Whether Germany did not need to get secretly in touch with her emissaries in this country, make new suggestions to them for continuing a neutrality, violating propaganda here, and to get information which could not be safely transmitted in any other way.
 That everything is considered fair In war has been continuously demon strated by all the belligerent nations; and the conduct of the Germans here has given good grounds for any sus- picions the mind of loyal and zealous Americans may suggest; but it is fair to the Germans to say they have been grossly nlisrepresented, as has been shown by the French consent to Mex leo, who reports that the stories of German influence upon Carranza have originated in America among men who profit by war and have no truth in them.
 And yet, Capt. Koenig's statement that he will sink the Deutschland be- fore he will ever surrender her sug- gests that there may be upon her doc uments which under any circum- stances never should come to light.

TRYING TO BE cITlFIED.

There doesn't seem to be a good reason why Norwich should not have the appearance Of a first class city in every respect. There is no decent req son why it should not keep it's streets and it's ordinances up to date and so regulate it's traffic that all reasonable citizens will be satisfied.
 The object of traffic laws is not to drive trade out of town, but to give visitors who live out of town @ chance at the curb and sufficient time to do business; also to give the people on foot Q chance to embark or disembark from the trolleys, or. to cross the bus mess streets in safety.
 It is clear that a traffic law must be adjusted for the protection of those who walk as well as for the conven- fence. of those who ride. These matters have not been attended to in Norwich as they should have been. t is healthy sign to see a city government that recognizes good law and proposes to enforce it.
 The effort is to regulate, not to an initiate anything. except that which Is now intolerable.
 The rational objections to the law are worthy consideration, and the city fathers have nothing to fear if they insist upon doing their duty to the honor of themselves and the honor of Norwich

The democrats do not hesitate to say the Mexican troubles were an in heritance from Taft's administration; but they haven't the courage to say that the mistakes made in dealing with Mexico were republican in their ori- gin.

 Of course we cannot let this stand in the way of our relief for physical suffering. The call of the French churches, however, is an imperative obligation for American Christianity, and no amount of physical relief could compensate for the calamity which would come if the French churches should lose their power.
 It is an opportunity almost without a parallel in the history of the Chris tian church, to demonstrate the real ity of fellowship in Christ Jesus.
 still hope that the American churches will not fail to reply to this Macedonian call.
 Please do as much as you can, but send something even if it be but a moderate offering.
