MEAT CLOGS KIDNEYS

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which excites the kidneys,
they become overworked from the
strain, get sluggish and fail to filter
the waste and poisons from the blood,
then we get sick. Nearly all rheu-
matism, headaches, liver trouble, ner-
vousness. dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache IN
the kidneys or your back hurts or If
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full Of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, stop
eating meat and get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take
a tablespoonful in a glass OF water
before breakfast and in few days
your kidneys VIII act fine. This IA
nous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon Juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to flush and stimulate the
Kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irrita-
ton, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot

should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney

For Efficient FARMING.

Efficiency is as necessary on the
farm as in the factory. the shop or
the store. To be efficient in farming
involves a certain amount OF pre-
paredness just as to be efficient in
war involves careful and scientific
preparation. 1t behooyes every young
man who expects to secure his living
from the soil to prepare himself for
HIS life work just as thoroughly as his
circumstances will permit. lie may
do this by studying at horne and by
observing the methods of successful
farmers.

Criminal Captured in Texas.

The negro farm hand who on July Sd
struck Mr.. ]. w. Houston across his
face with a pillow share when he was
reprimanded by his employer for doing
poor job of blowing, was captured Sat-
urday afternoon of last week in Rich
land, Texas, by Sheriff J. F. Edwards,
and was jailed here Tuesday. Mr.. Hous-
toms death followed at Shreveport
sanitarium thirteen days later, but this
the negro claims he did not know. He
will be held for trial at the next criminal
term of Bossier District Court.
Four other negroes have recently
been jailed, and the moving of cotton,
which gives the negroes money with
which to gamble and order whiskey,
seems to have resulted in some Increase
in crime.
Will Turner, who killed Jack Lee on
the Elston place in Ward One, Saturday
night, was jailed here the following
morning.
Mack Lemons, also from South Bos-
sier, was jailed at the same time. He
killed his father, Ed Lemons, the crime
being committed Saturday night.
On the 18th Lem Jones and Dennis
Thornton were jailed. They are charged
with attempting to steal cotton from the
J.P. Allen plantation, near Bossier City.

MIR. Burt Braes on Bossier.

Mr.. E. S. Burt, farm demonstration
agent for Bossier Parish, stopped at the
Banner Office for short time yesterday
morning. He was on his way out to
Ivan, Rocky Mount and other points to
inspect crops, and, as usual, was spread
ing the good tidings of what Bossier has
done in the past and can and will vet do.
He says this seasons crops have been
good. He expects to see at the Parish
Fair the best exhibit of corn. and corn
products ever shown. Also the exhibits
OF cotton-varieties, fifty-boll contest
and long and short staples in bales-he
expects to see full and of excellent quail
ity. An abundance of peas, peanuts
and potatoes hare been made and the
exhibits will be fine.
According to Mr.. Burt This has been
an ideal cropping season, and "the best
for cotton for years and years." He
estimates about 80 per cent of cotton
crop will be harvested. There was an
increase in acreage over 1915 of about
10 per cent, but his estimate is only
about $4,000 bales. Last season the
parish produced 10000 bales. The raw
ages of the boil weevil, in his opinion,
is what cut the crop short.
He was in hurry and the reporter
could not get much more out of him, but
when asked about the mass crop he said
it was exceptionally good and the best
and fullest since the years of 1871 and
1878.
If you don't believe he said these
things and don't believe he is ever
ready to brag on Bossier Parish, just

Benton High School Notes.

School is moving along smoothly in
all the departments. The pupils are
making steady progress, and seem to be
thoroughly interested in their work. 1t
is the desire of the teachers to make all
school work pleasant for the pupils, as
we'll as instructive, and to this end they
feel that they have already met with
considerable success.
Our school will be represented at the
Parish Fair this session. While we
shall be obliged to have our exhibit
somewhat limited on account of lack of
time. However, we shall do our very
best, under the circumstances, to make
a creditable showing.
Since the weather is getting cooler
the pupils are becoming more interested
in athletics. The girls of the high
school department have begun to plan
for basket ball team, and are anxious
to begin playing just as soon as the
court can be made ready. The boys
have been playing baseball for the past
two weeks and are still deriving much
pleasure from that source.
A great deal of interest is being shown
along the line Of music. Recently the
girls, under the supervision of Miss
Crawford, have organized a glee club,
which will be beneficial to them as we'll
as source of great pleasure.
The work in the Primary Department
is progressing very satisfactorily. Each
day the little folks are eager to begin
work, and their bright little faces beam
with joy when school begins in the
morning, as if to say that there is some
thing worth while for them in this room.
The pupils in the intermediate grades
have been doing good work thus far and
it is hoped that they will continue to
do so throughout the session. The en-
rollment in this department has grown
from % to 25. Matte Green, an out-of-
town pupil, entered the fourth grade
this week. She is spending the winter
with Mrs. w. E. Ivey and comes with
Mr.. Ivey's little girl to school each
day. COR.

Car Crashes Into Ru66y.

Clarence Wilson, the twelve year old
son of Mr.. Job Wilson, who resides on
the Red Chute plantation, near Vance
vile, in returning home from Benton
ran his fathers car into buggy driven
by Mr.. Shaw, from Bluffs. Other oc-
cupants of the buggy we're Mrs. Shaw
and their baby. They were on the Bos-
sier City and Benton gravel road at a
point near Mrs. Mary Vance's home and
we're on their way to North Riverside
plantation to visit Mr.. Shaw's brother.
The collision was headon, but the car
struck only the side of the buggy. The
buggy was partially wrecked and it's &C.
cupants were thrown out, but their in
juries proved slight. At first the baby
was thought to have suffered internal
injury, and DR.. Carter, Of South Bos-
sier, Mr.. Shaw's family physician, was
summoned by telephones At last &C
counts, however, the little one was said
to be doing all right, and the party had
returned to their home. Assistance was
given the unfortunate couple by Messrs.
L. G. and G.. B. Smith and members of
their families, who drove up almost i'm
mediately following the accident.
1t is said the boy was driving by the
light of a hand lantern. The only other
occupant Of the car was colored youth.
Mr.. Shaw claims he had pulled his
horse entirely out of the road and had
brought him to stand. A poor light,
therefore, was perhaps entirely account
able for the collision.
