NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE
tect the Approach of Kidney
Disease

The symptoms of kidney trouble
are many. Disordered kidneys often
eXcrete a thick, cloudy, offensive
urine, full of sediment, irregular of
passage or attended by a sensation of
scalding. The back may ache, head
aches and dizzy spells may occur and
the victim is often weighted down by
a feeling of languor and fatigue.
Neglect these warnings and there is
danger. Delay often proves fatal.
You can use no better endorsed
kidney remedy than Doan's Kidney
Pills. Here's Pullman proof of their
merit.

my kidneys, especially when lifting
anything. My kidneys acted too fire.

FOOD SUPPLIES ON FARMS

Determining by countrywide
canvass the approximate amount OF
important farm products on farms OF
the United States that is food or con-
vertible into food, is the part the Blu
reau of Crop Estimates of the United
States Department of Agriculture
will take in the national food survey
authorized by the food production
bill recently enacted. Thirty-five
thousand picked volunteers from its
corps of $50, 900 crop correspondents
will be asked to take part in the farm
survey.
Each of the field representatives,
a farmer himself and thoroughly IA
miliar with farm conditions in his
community will make a report of
food stocks, including meat animals
and crops on his farm and each of
these representatives will be supplied
with 10 extra schedules of inquiry
which he will distribute among his
neighbors, for reports upon their re-
spective farms. From the $4,000
reports thus obtained, the experts of
the bureau, knowing the total num-
Der of farms in the United States,
will make final estimates for the
farms of the country. 1t is believed
that this estimate. judging from the
accuracy of other records similarly
gathered, will be within few per
cent of actual farm food stocks.
The farm survey will begin at once.
A second survey about November /,
similarly conducted, will cover the
fall harvests.
The bureau also will extend its
regular crop estimates to crops not
reported heretofore and further en-
largo its service by special inquiries

channel, the masses of the English
people few years ago were pro-
verbally spendthrift rather than a
saving race. But the great war has
wrought change.
IN the year 1916 although pur-
chasing billions of dollars of war
bonds the small savings banks de-
posters in England increased their
deposits over $60,O00,0OO.
1t was patriotism that started this
great change in the people of the
nation. The English people started
saving their money because they saw
mat 1t meant saving England. But
thrift and economy begot thrift and
economy. They economical and saved
Tor their own sake as we'll as for
England's sake. Not only did they
save money, but they economical in
food. in fuel, in dress in luxuries.
More than one million English work
efs were purchasers, out of their say
lngs, in the second great war loan of
Great Britain, and eight million sub
scribed to their last war loan.
The question whether the civilian
population should economic and do
without certain things or the soldiers
and sailors be denied things neces-
sary for their effectiveness and safety
was answered in no uncertain or un-
patriotic way by the masses of the
English people. They did their bit
in financing their country.
No American need fear that the
results of the American peoples sup
port of the Liberty Loan will fail to
maintain Americas traditional pa
triotism and power The more than
four million subscribers and the
more than billion over-subscription
to the first issue of the Liberty Loan
Bonds are eloquent testimony of the
American peoples loyalty to their
government and their willingness
and ability to give it full financial
support.

A JUST PROTEST

The farmers of the Pacific North
west are vigorously protesting
against the action of the governm ent
in fixing a price of 1920 per bushel
for wheat, with Chicago as the basic
market. Their protest does not
prove, as some people claim, that
they are greedy and unpatriotic, be-
cause it is aimed not at the price
fixed, but at the discrimination
against them in favor of the grain
producers of the east. They will be
locked 80 cents a bushel on their
grain, the cost of shipping it to Chi
cago, while the New York farmers
will receive a premium of 10 cents
bushel over the Chicago price. Had
the necessities of the country re-
quired a price of $1.75 a bushel be
fixed for every farmers grain deliy-
cred at the nearest warehouse, there
would have been far less complaint,
bcause each one would have felt that
while he was being asked to make
big sacrifice, he was getting the same
price as every other farmer 1t is not
the sacrifice but the discrimination
which hurts.
Most of the present short wheat
crop of the Northwest will be kept
for feed, milling and seed purposes.
But a small part of it will be shipped
east, but its selling value will be de-
termined on the basic Chicago price,
less the freight rate to that city, The
New York wheat producer who sells
to the flour mills will receive about
$3.50 per bushel, while the Wash
ington producer who sells to the
local flour mills will receive about
$1.S5 per bushel. If the govern
ment had not set aside the law of
supply and demand by fixing an ar
btrary price, the farmers would
probably have received So or more
per bushel for their grain, and the
price at Pacific coast terminals would
have varied but little from the price
at the Atlantic coast terminals. No
one questions the right of the gov
ernm ent in time of war to fix lower
price for wheat than the abnormal
conditions would justify the farmers
in expecting, but many question the
right to fix one price for the farmers
in one section of the country and
different price for those in another
section. Such a policy will discour-
age rather than stimulate the plant
ing of an increased acreage in the
western states next year.
The fair way would be TO fix as
basic price for Pacific coast termin-
ais. the price fixed for Atlantic ter
minals, less the average difference in
the price for which wheat has sold
at the two points for term of sew
eraI years last past, which would be
in the neighborhood of five cents.
This plan would give the farmers OF
all sections of the country square
deal instead of discriminating
against the wheat producers OF the
Pacific Northwest.

Tor a third time they returned at 4

Captain Myers on the right and
Thompson on the left, with Custer

the foe, Custer was to gauge the time
necessary and give the signal to attack
with the bugle.

style and continued them IN
der the most distressing conditions In
the winter. Among his ablest and most
daring ~lieutenants at the time was
General George A. Custer, the dashing
cavalry hero of the Army of the Poto-
mac.
His final campaign is so s~trikingly
remembered that 1t is well here to give
q short description Of n of his thrill
ingly successful battles, sometimes
called Clusters Victory of the Washi-
ta."
General Sheridan, who was In com
mand Of the department, was himself
in the field. These Indians having
perpetrated many outrages, popular
indignation seconded and demanded
active retribution. The Indians nat
urally in winter drifted southwark II
possible, and Sheridan had made a
rendezvous at Camp Supply. In Indian
Territory, a hundred miles south OF
Fort Dodge. Believing that they were
In camp In concealment somewhere,
Sheridan elected to detach Custer and
his regiment and send them On a scout,
while he himself would seek in anoth-
Ell direction, with Camp Supply as q
base. On Nov. %, at 4 O'Clock In the
morning, In a snowstorm, Custer re-
ported himself ready to march with
his usual evidenced anxiety to fight.
On the Goth the Canadian river was
reached, and Major Elliot was sent ON
a prospecting tour, willie he crossed
the river with his immediate COM
mand. The ice was not strong enough
to bear them up, SO they had to break
through 1t in fording the river. After
crossing Scout Corbin brought news
that Elliot had struck a trail on the
south side OF the river. This he was
sent orders to follow until night and
then to wait for Custer and his men.
Leaving the wagon train behind him
under an escort, abandoning some and
taking their pack train of mules, a
hundred rounds Of ammunition and
commissary stores of one days rations
of coffee and hard tack and some for
age for his horses, he FASTENED on.
Troop after troop was relieved at the
front for breaking the road, and the
horses were pushed to the limit Of
their condition of safety, as the In
dams, If they were in as large a mum
Der as believed. might ambush Elliot
and his men. They reached Elliot at
8 o'clock.
A council was called, and 1t was de-
cided to wait until the moon rose and
then to follow the Indian trail. The
rest did the command some good. the
saddle girths being loosened and the
horses given their scanty supply. With
an able disposition Of the scouts in
advance, Custer led his men, and in
about an hours ride Little Beaver ap-
preached and said he smelt fire. A
halt, and Custer and the scouts went
forward, crawled up over the ridge,

could not be eaten. Suffering became
intense, and sending for help was abb
solutely necessary, else the command
would perish. Jack Stilwell, a noted
scout, then a beardless youth In buck
skin, volunteered to go to Fort Wal
lace. Old Pete Trudeau, a frontiers
man, said he would go with him. At
midnight the pair crept out from the
breastworks and were quickly lost
sight OF. Stilwell decided that the
best route to take would be by going
directly ashore and over the bluff and
not to detour up or down the river or
follow the ravines into the interior,
for he judged that the Indians would
guard these seemingly less perilous
avenues, feeling that no n would
take a chance Of escaping owe the
bluff. Crawling on their stomachs and
sometimes IN their hands and knees,
three miles were covered before dawn.
They saw Indians on every hand. The
first stage of their long journey
brought them to the top of the divide
between the Arickaree and South Re-
publican rivers. There they concealed
themselves for the day in a washout,
or head Of a draw, where the banks
had been overgrown with tall grass
and sunfiowers. From over the hill
they could hear firing all day. which
todd them that their comrades still
held out.
Next night they crept away across
the south fork Of the Republican, and
the morning OF the fourth day found
them On the prairie at the head of
Goose creek. The Indians seemed to
have been left behind, and the boy
and man decided now to travel also by
day. This piece of recklessness near
ly cost them their lives, for about 8
o'clock in the morning they saw In
dams coming toward them, and they
dropped into the grass. Fortunately
the Indians had not discovered them,
but 1t vas necessary to hide quickly.
In looking for a place to conceal them
selves on the open plains they discov-
cred some weeds growing around a
buffalo carcass. Crawling to their
prospective shelter, they found that
the buffalo had been killed about a
year before and that the skeleton was
intact, with little bits of hide hanging
to the ribs in places. In a moment
they had crawled into the skeleton
with its almost unbearable stencil.
The tenseness Of their situation, ou-
pied with the dangers at hand, began
to affect Trudeau's mind, and be al
most broke down completely. He
wanted to shout, shoot his revolver
and leap out from their hiding place,
but Stilwell persuaded him to remain
quiet until dark, when a refreshing
drink Of water revived him, and they
Travelled on through the night. The
next day was foggy, and they travelled
by daylight without trouble. About
II o'clock, when almost utterly ex-
hausted, they saw coming out of the
haze of the Denver wagon road two
soldiers bearing dispatches. The cou-
riers were on the way to Colonel Car
penter's command, lying at Lake Sia-
ter, about fifty miles from where Gen
eral Forsyth was besieged. Squirting
their horses, they made all haste to
Colonel Carpenters camp, and bis
force was quickly marched to General
Forsyth's relief.
