AS ROBERT MIN
BY ROBERT MINOR
Copyright, 1916, BY Newspaper
Enterprise Association.)
A crowd was gathering in the sta
ton at Geneva, Switzerland, prepar-
ed to receive the "grands blesses"
on their way back to Germany from
prison camps in. France. The Red
Cross flags and the flags of the city of
Geneva and the republic of Switzer-
land were lined up in front of
troop of Whitehead nurses, rows OF
great pots of coffee and manybaskets
and boxes of food. What lucky
place for fags In front of. healers
instead of killers of men.
Thetrain arrived 'Hoch der
Schweitzp' shouted Is carloads of
German boys. They were nearly all
boys-not strong, healthy boys ready
to recommence life's struggle, but
one-Iegged boys. For the "grands
blesses'' (greatly wounded) are cho-
sen to be returned TO tner naClVe
land because they cannot fight
again, can never work again, to any
good, and must be fed.
Switzerland does this work of ex-
change. They ship train loads of
German wounded prisoners back to
their homes with the consent of the
French government and send equal
number of French wounded prisoners
back to Frence with Germany's per-
mission, in exchange. The only adj
Vantage is to have themen at home
instead of in foreign prisons. The
surest guarantee of inability to fight
is the lack of a leg. So the train load
was mostly of one-legged men.
The flags Strengthened out in the
wind of the train, and deep, joy
GUS welcome came from the thous-
ands of threats of the sanest people
in Europe, the Swiss. From the train

Your
Roses

District Horticulturalist Powell
sends the following recommends
tions for sprays to control mildew
on roses:
FORMALDEHYDE-One table
spoonful of formaldehyde to. one
gallon of water.
AMMONIA-Sixteen ounces of
ammonia water to six ounces of
copper sulphate. Dissolve the cop
per sulphate in the ammonia. Use
one teaspoonful of this solution to
one gallon of water in preparing
the spray.
Spray your roses as soon as they
have made growth of from a to
IL inches, and follow this up any
time later when you see the mil
dew showing up on the foliage. 1t
is practically impossible to control
mildew with only one application.

The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there Is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that Is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
Influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally
and acts thru the Blood on the Mucous
Surfaces of the System thereby ds-
stroying the foundation of the disease,
giving the patient strength by building
UP the constitution and assisting ma
ture in doing its work. The proprie-

Treatments

The department. of forestry Iof
the Washington State college in CO.
operation with the experiment sta
tion and the department Of agri-
culture has just inaugurated a Sc
ries of fence post treatments to
prolong durability. One of the
large items of expense to the farm
ers everywhere is the annual out
lay for fence posts. In Iowa, for
example, 25,000,OO0 fence posts
are required annually, and the cost
is no less than 100000. 1t has
been found that this expense can
be cut in two by giving the pests
proper ire. Inert before they are
set. 1t is with view to furnish
ing Washington farmers and other
users of fence posts in the state
accurate information on this ques-
tion that the college has undertake
en- this line of experiments.
inexpensive treating plants are
being installed on the College
Farm at Pullman, also on the sub
station farms at Lind and at Wat
erville, where the experiments
will be conducted. The work will
be confined to post timbers native
to Washington, such as red cedar,
Douglas fir, yellow pine, lodgepole
pine, tamarack and cottonwood.
The treating material that will be
used for the most part is coal-tar
creosote.

Smith Here

H. Alexander Smith of Colorado
Springs, legal and otherwise rep
resentative Of the Henry K. T. Ly-
ons interests, which now include
the old Hanford project, was in
the valley this week, going over
the company's holdings.
While here, Mr.. Smith is report
ed to have said that if the land
owners under the project would
get together and decide on some
definite plan of settlement of the
water question, his company would
give it serious consideration.
During the past two or three
months, there has been a tendency
on the part of all the interests in
the valley to get together and set
tie this question once and for all.
This movement, while an uncon-
scious one, has been nevertheless
definite and argues we'll for a final
determination of the question.
All hands are beginning to real
ize that court decisions and legal
victories, while costly, are not
worth much unless both sides are
satisfied, which is seldom the case.
And this water question, like a
great many others, will be settled
finally only when plan is arrived
at that will be beneficial and profit
able to both sides.

Proven Swamp-Root
 Aids Weak Kidneys

The sym mptoms of kidney and blad- der troubles are often very distressing and leave the system in a rundown condition. The kidneys seem to suf- fer most, as almost every victim complains of lame back and urinary troubles which should not be neg 1ected, as these danger signals often lead to dangerous kidney troubles. Dr. kilmer's Swamp-Root which soon heals and strengthens the kid neys is a splendid kidney liver and bladder remedy, and, being an herbal compound, has a gentle healing effect on the kidneys which is almost imme- diately noticed in most cases by those who use it.
 A trial will convince anyone who may be in need of it. Better get bottle from your nearest drug store and start treatment at once
 treatment at once
 However, if you wish first to test thls great preparation send ten cents to Dr. klmer & Go. Binghamton, x. Y., for a sample bottle. When writ Ing be sure and mention the New Britain Herald.
