LIVESTOCK GROWING
DECREASES BECAUSE
OF FEED-FARM BUREAU
Los Angeles and San Francisco Are
Urged to Establish Stockyards So
That the Livestock Raiser Can Get
Fair Price for His Beef, Pork,
Mutton and Poultry.


That the amount of livestock
raised in the Valley has decreased
rs per cent in the past year is
the assertion of a proposed res
olution, drafted by the directors
of the County Farm Bureau,
which will urge Los Angeles and
San Francisco interests to es-
tablish public st0ckyards.
The high price of feed is re-
sponsible for this condition, the
resolution recites The alleged
unfair methods of the big pack
ing concerns in both cities is an
other contributive cause. If stock
yards were established, the small
butcher could 60 to them and get
one critter or a carload, and es-
cape the packer.

in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control urinatiOn.
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments to
overcome. Get about four ounces OF
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take tablespoonful in a glass of wat

two or three days. This will neutral

7 MILLION SHIP LINE
Head of Great Argentine Marine Com
pany Once PenniIess Sailor.

BuenoS Aires, Oct. 15.--The sale of
the Mihanovich Steamship line this
week to the Royal Mail Steam Packet
shipping firm, is by far the most i'm
portant of the many sales of Argentine
shipping which have been recorded
since the war commenced. The price
paid for 8 per cent of the preferred
and common stock was equivalent to
S7,005.900, United States gold. The
new holding company will have as a
base of operations about $50 ships and
several shipyards
The MihanOvich line was the owner
of the steamship Presidente Mitre, the
capture of which nearly embrOiled
Argentina and Great Britain in inter
national difficulties two years ago, the
problem being solved by the return
of the vessel to Buenos Aires by its
English capturers.
The founding of Mihanovich line
was one of the most dramatic stories
of the many men who came to Argen-

three years ago, Nicholas Mihanovich,
a poor Austrian sailor, landed in
Buenos Aires penniless- After making
his way to Paraguay and working
there awhile. he returned to Buenos
Aires homesick to await a chance of

For some time he rowed a small

Americans Photographed Ra-
vine Filled With Bodies.
CHILDREN WERE BURIED ALIVE
Thrown Into Graves With
Mothers Bodies by MOsIems.
q. S. Missionary Tells of Unbe-
Iievable Atrocities He Saw.

New York, Oct. 15.-Burial alive Of
babies in trenches with the bodies of
their mothers, who had been slaugh-
tered or allowed to perish from ex-
posture, was practiced by the Turks in
their work of discriminating the Ar
menians, it was declared here today by
the Rev. Henry H. Riggs, missionary
of the American board of commits
sioners for foreign missions to Harput,
Turkey, who recently came back to
this country. A trench was dug beside
camp of Armenian women, he said,
and as they met death the survivors
were forced to drag their bodies to it
and bury them.
THE gendarmes said they could not
take care of the babies that were left
behind so many of those were buried
with their mothers" DIR. Riggs said.
when I visited this camp I frequently
saw Turks wandering about among
the Armenians picking out pretty girls
and little children to take away to
their homes Some mothers told US
that they had themselves thrown their
babies into the Euphrates river rather
than allow them to be taken to Moslem
homes. Many more threw themselves
into the river to escape a bondage of
shame worse than death.
500 Men Bound and Slaughtered.
About fifteen miles from Harput is
lake hidden from sight with many
ravines about it. We were told that
the Armenian exiles were being killed
and left in these ravines. Two Ameri-
cans investigated and brought back
photographs and actual facts. They
saw in a twenty mile ride 10000
human bodies, most of them killed by
the bayonet. With a few exceptions
they were women and children and
the mangled condition of their bodies
showed the horrible fate that has been
theirs
The story of the deportation of the
Armenians of Harput is one of per
fidy, violence and murder" DR.. Riggs
went on, adding, 1T is nearer to the
truth to say the Turkish government
undertook the extinction of the Ar

Nervous Period
fcaI Headaches

This trouble commonly called sick
headache, - is said to be due to the retention
OF urea In the system. Often it is stated that
poor condition of the blood is a cause of
these headaches, or that 1t is a nervous con-
dition; and in certain cases. no doubt this
IS true.
Where treatment is demanded, 1t is mora
for the pain than anything else, and DR..
A. F. 5chellschmidt of Louisville, has found
anti-kamnta tablets to give prompt and
satisfactory relief. Rest should be insisted
upon" he says. "and the patient should go
to bed, darken the room, and all the atten-
dants and family should be as quiet as pos
sible. An emetic will sometimes shorten
the attack. The bowels should be kept open
and a hot bath and a thorough rundown
with coarse towel, often give grateful
relief. Two anti-kamnia tablets when the
nrst signs appear, will usually prevent the
attack During an attack, one tablet every
hour or two will shorten the attack and
relieve the usual nausea and vomiting
These tablets may be obtained at all drug
gists. Ask for AK Tablets. They are also

DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets Get

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the substi-
tute for calomel, act gently on the bowels
and positively do the work.
People afflicted with bad breath find
quick relief through DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets. The pleasant, sugar
coated tablets are taken for bad breath
by all who know them.
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets act gently
but firmly on the bowels and liver,
stimulating them to natural action,
clearing the blood and gently purifying
the entire system. They do that which
dangerous calomel does without any
of the bad after effects.
All the benefits of nasty, sickening,
gripping cathartics are derived from DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets without gripping,
pain or any disagreeable effects.
DR.. F. M. Edwards discovered the
formula after seventeen years of prac-
tice among patients afflicted with
bowel and liver complaint, with the
attendant bad breath.
