ment Of Tartar republic In the Cri-
mea is announced, according to the
Petrograd correspondent OF the Times
who adds that details are unknown.
In this connection the correspondent
refers to the declaration Of independ-
ence made by the Caucasus and the Sc
cession of Siberia. He declares 1t is
difficult to say where the process OF
disintegration will end. 1t appears to
cause little concegn to the politicians
In power who are wholly absorbed in
the peace program.
The Crimea, peninsula projecting
into the Black Sea is the scene OF the
Crimean war, 1t is about $500 square
miles in area and has population of
about 100000 most of whom are Tar
tars. There are also Greeks, Ger
mans and Bulgarians. The Tartars set
tied there in the thirteenth century.

DO YOU HAVE DIZZY SPELLS
It's Important to Learn the Cause
as Many Pullman People Have

Dizziness is never a disease of it.
self-it's only a symptom of some
deeper-seated trouble. Much dizzi-
ness is caused by disorderly kidneys
failing to filter all the poisons from
the blood. These poisons attack the
nerves and dizziness results. If you
are subject to dizziness, there is good
reason to suspect your kidneys, and
il you suffer backache, headache, and
irregularity of the kidney secretions,
you have further proof. Many Pull
man people have learned the value of
Doans Kidney Pills in just such
cases. Read this Pullman residents
statement:
Mrs. NJ. E. Foot, 519 Paradise ST.,
says: 81 can hardly describe the
misery I endured from backache last
winter. My back was so painful /
couldn't sleep well and when l
stopped 1 just felt miserable. had
that tired feeling, along with head
aches and dizzy spells. A friend ad-
vised me to use Doan's Kidney Pills
and took fully dozen boxes. They
surely gave me fine results

PASSING OF THE PLoWMAN'
The Synmotor, Which Guides Itself
Makes Farm Work Lighter.

The latest thing in the tilling of the
soil lis the synmotor, which, while il
guides itself, plows and cultivates,
sow , and reaps. The farmer may sit
on his front porch and see his crops
planted and grown and gathered
without putting his hand to the work.
The device, patented by Herbert l..
Washburn Q. Laurel Springs, N. j.,
consists of 4 or 8-horsepower gas
oline tractor adaptable to any ordi-
nary agricultural implement and with
delicate guiding apparatus connected
by broom wire to a drum mounted
on a steel post in the center of the
field. AS the tractor moves the
wire winds about the drum, shorten
ing the radius just enough to guide
the working implement into a gent
.ly, inwinding spiral The circumfer-
ence of the drum is thus the width o.
the furrow or row or swath. All the
man has to do is to connect the wire
and crank the engine. The symotor
will then work its way around and
around without attention, till the
small circles near the post are
reached and the field is done.
Another question is whether the in
vention is limited to small scale farm
ing. One might doubt whether the
guiding cable would work so accur-
ately at long distance; but Mr. Wash
burn says that the matter of steering,
which first occurs to questioners, is
the least of his difficulties. Last year
he successfully worked field OF
seven and one-fourth> acres planted
with COW peas and sorghum, and he
thinks that Io-acre field should he
the standard among farmers who
would use the synmotor. This would
require a cable 371 feet long.-Phila-
delphia Record.
