QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER.
Take a glass of Salts if your
Back hurts or Bladder
troubles you.

No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by
flushing 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 rheuma-
tism, dizziness, sleeplessness and ur-
mary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a 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 sensation of scalding,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy; take tablespoonful in glass
of water before breakfast and in a
few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid Of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined 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
irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can.
not injure; makes delightful effer-
vescent lithia-water drink which
everyone should take now and then
to keep the kidneys clean and active
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding
serious kidney complications.

TUBER SUBJECT TO INQUIRY
Uncle Sans Experts Trying to Develop
New Varieties Specially Adapted
to Different Localities.

Uncle Sans experts are conducting
a number of potato investigations in
various states. One of the main fea-
lures of the work Is the development,
from seed, 'of new varieties of pota-
toes specially suited for certain pur-
poses and adapted to the special grow
ing regions in which such products can
most economically be produced.
A large number OF seedlings have
been grown and those of greater prom
lse only retained, of which 1t Is under
stood there are some 300 considered of
sufficient value to warrant further test
ing. These are being tried out in CO.
operation with the various state agri-
cultural stations, and as soon us they
have proved their worth In any local
ity arrangements will be made to es-
tablish the variety in the region 10
which 1t is best adapted.
In this very interesting investigation
experiments are being made leading to
a determination of the factors neces-
sary for the production of dIsease-free
potatoes. 1t has been found that
where land has previously been in
cultivation with grains and alfalfa II
may produce dlsease-free potatoes.

SCHOOL TERMS LONGER
Reports Show Many States Have
Raised Legal Minimum.
Development Of State Financial Aid
for Weak Districts Has Aided
In Bringing About Change.

Forty-four states have established
by law minimum terms Of from go to
190 days term of school for each or
ganized district, according to bulle-
tin just issued by Uncle Sam through
the bureau Of education. ]. g. Muer-
man, who compiled the bulletin, points
out that four states, Louisiana, Ala
.bama, Rhode Island, and Georgia, have
no minimum requirement laws, but
that one of these, Rhode Island, has
for over ten years maintained the
longest average term In the United
States. While the minimum number
Of days required is almost invariably
much less than the actual average
number Of days in the school
term for the state, majority of the
states still report many schools unable
to meet even the low minimum require
ments. Within the past three years,
12 states-Arizona Colorado, Idaho,
Kansas, Maine, Nebraska, New York,
North Carolina, North Dakota, Yer
mont, and Wyoming-have added from
10 to go days to the legal requirement
of minimum school term.
Some of the factors that have oper-
ated in favor of longer school term,
aside from the general awakening of
public sentiment, are the phenomenal
growth of the public high schools, the
development of state financial aid for
weak districts, equalization funds, and
penalties for not maintaining mini
mum term required by law.
The growth of the public high
schools has tended to lengthen the
term in the elementary schools by set
ting up standards of admission by GER
tificate or examination which can or
dinarlly be met by grade schools with
a term of at least eight months.
LACK of provision for adequate funds
is perhaps the greatest hindrance
to a longer school term," declares
Mr.. Muerman. "a majority of the
states have fully realized the necessi-
ty for more state financial assistance
and have enacted laws giving state
aid to weak districts to enable them to
maintain a minimum school term. A
wise provision in most of these laws
makes the levy Of specified minimum
rate of local taxation necessary and
provides for certain specified stand
ard of school before aid becomes avail
able. These laws are, as a rule, in
tended to help only those who first
help themselves. The necessity of
greater local cooperation and aid is
urged In the 1912 report of the state
department of public instruction for
Georgia. This report calls attention
to tendency to lean too heavily upon
state aid, and cites the laws of anoth.
er state which require county levy of
not less than three and not more than
seven mills before state aid can be
secured"
In answer to an inquiry from the
commissioner Of education, over one
half of all the state superintendent
have expressed willingness to CO.
operate In securing uniform 100 days
term for all schools, including rural
schools. This would represent con.
siderable improvement over the pres.
ent average Of 1871 days. g. '.

often and so unrestrainedly that the
twins shook In their beds with rage
and disappointment.
1t speaks well for the courage of
Babbie, and the attractions Of Fairy,
that he came to the parsonage again
and again. In time he became the
best of friends with the twins them
selves, but he always called them "the
adorables," and they never asked him
why. The punishment inflicted upon
them by Prudence rankled In their
memories for many months.
"The offense was against Fairy"
said Prudence, with solemnity she
did not feel, "and the reparation must
be done to her. For three weeks you
must do all Of her bedroom work, and
run every errand she requires. More
over, you must keep her shoes well
cleaned and nicely polished, and must
do every bit Of her darningl'
The twins would have preferred
whipping thousand times. They felt
they had got whipping's worth of
pleasure out of their mischief! But a
punishment like this sat heavily upon
their proud young shoulders, and from
that time on they held Fairy practi-
cally immune from their pranks.
Prudence did not bother her head
about etiquette after that experience.
I'm strong for comfort she declared,
"and since the two cannot live together
In one family, say we do without eti-
quette."
And Fairy nodded in agreement,
smiling good-naturedly.

snatch Of song.
But Prudence did poor job of en-
tertaining Babbie during her sisters
absence. She felt really dlzzyl Such
way to introduce Etiquette into the
parsonage life. She was glad to make
her escape from the room when Fairy
returned. graceful figure in fine blue
silk!
A little after nine she called out
dismally, Fairy" And Fairy, fearing
fresh disaster, came running out.
"What now? What"
~ forget what you told me to say"
whispered Prudence wretchedly,
"what was 1t? The soup Is ready, and
piping hot-but what is 1t you want
me to say?"
Fairy screamed with laughter. "YOu
goosel" she cried. "Say anything you
like. 1t doesn't make any difference
what you say
"Oh, am determined to do my part
just right" vowed Prudence fervent-
ly, according to etiquette and all.
What was 1t you sald?"
Fairy stlfled her laughter with diff
Guilty, and said In low voice,
wouldn't you like nice, hot oyster
stew?" Prudence repeated it after
her breathlessly.
SO Fairy returned once more, and
soon after Prudence tapped on the
door. Then she opened it, and thrust
her curly head inside. "Wouldn't you
like little nice, hot oyster stew?"
she chirped methodlcally. And Fairy
said, "Oh, yes, indeed, Prudence-this
is so nice of you"
The three gathered sociably about
the table. Babbie was first to taste
the steaming stew. He gasped, and
gulped and swallowed some water
with more haste than grace. Then he
toyed idly with spoon and wafer until
Prudence tasted also. Prudence did
not gasp. She did not cry out. She
looked up at her sister with wide eyes
"a world Of pathos In the glance.
But Fairy did not notice.
"Now, please do not ask me to talk
until ! have finished my SOUP" she
was saying brightly.
Then she tasted 1t She dropped
her spoon with great clatter, and

FOOD BILLS TO
Be REDRAFTEp
Production and Regulation
Will be Two Great
Divisions

washington, May 22.-Food legisla-
tion was temporarily laid aside late
yesterday by the senate. After several
hours debate the first bill, providing for
a food survey, the licensing of dealers
and steps to prevent boarding, was
sent back to the agricultural committee
for redrafting to include several of
various amendments offered.
Quicker action on legislation to stim-
ulafe foodstuff production is expected
to result, and Chairman Gore of the
committee did not object to recommit-
ment. Many senators objected to furth-
er consideration OF the measure in its
present form because Of amendments
and others held in waiting.
Division Of food legislation into two
main sections production and regu-
lation probably will be agreed on by the
COMMITTEES.
The administration bill dealing with
stimulation of production was, with a
slight change, introduced in the SEN
ate just before it adjourned last night
by Senator Gore. 1t will be consider
ed today by the senate committee and
probably reported within 48 hours.
Regulation Of food supplies and the
appointment OF a food administrator
will be subjects of a separate bill. This
new measure will be introduced in the
house today and the senate probably
will not take up regulation legislation
until the house acts.
The bill dealing solely with steps to
augment production OF foodstuffs, it is
believed, will be promptly enacted.
That covering the question of regula-
ton promises long and vigorous dis
cussion.
Whether prohibition legislation will
be considered as a part OF the food
program or the war tax legislation was
another question raised and not de-
termined.
