Died of Premature
Old Age!
BY v. NJ. PIERCE, NJ. d.

How many times we hear of COMPARE
lively young persons passing away
when they should have lived to be 20 or
30 years of age. This fatal work is usu-
ally attributed to the kidneys, as, when
the kidneys degenerate, it causes auto
intoxication. The more injurious the
poisons passing thru the kidneys, the
quicker will those noble organs be de-
generated, and the sooner they decay.
To prevent premature old age ana
promote long life, tighten the work OF
the kidneys BY drinking plenty of pure
water all day long, and occasionally TAX
ing Anuric double strength) before
meals. This can be obtained at drug
stores. Anuric will overcome such con-
ditions as rheumatism, dropsical swell
ings, cold extremities, scalding and
burning urine and sleeplessness due to
constant arising.

POWER FROM THE SUMS HEAT
Scientific Records Show That Efforts
to Utilize Old soI's Rays Date
Back TO 1915.

Scientific records show that at
tempts to utilize the heat of the sun
date back to De CauX, who in 1915
undertook some solar work, and includ-
ed the experiment of Button, who in
1741 succeeded in setting fire to q
tarred plank by solar rays reflected
from q combination of flat mirrors at
distance of $50 feet. He did this to
show the possibility of the legend that
Archimedes thus set fire to the fleet
of Marcellus at Syracuse in 212 B. G.
One handicap, so far, has been the
fact that the efficiency of solar en-
gineS has not been over 4.32 per cent
of the heat value received, while that
or the ordinary steam engine is about
lis per cent, and the gas engine as
high as 25.5 per cent. 1t appears,
nevertheless, that with experiments
lasting over number of years
through which the coaI-fed steam boil
ers have been improved, sun boilers
will be brought to far better state
Of efficiency. This view is said to be
supported by recent experiments con-
Quoted at Meadi on the Nile river, sew
en- miles south Of Cairo, during two
years work The plant was composed
of five 205-foot boilers placed on edge
and in the focus of five channel-shaped
mirror reflectors of parabolic cross
section, totaling an area of 13, 269 feet.
The maximum quantity of steam
produced was II pounds per 100
square feet of mirror surface eX-
posed to the sun, and the maximum
thermal efficiency of the mirrors was
4O.1 per cent. The maximum output
for an hour was $50 brake horse
power, result about ten times as
large as anything previously attained
and equal to SO brake horsepower per
acre of land occupied by the plant.

PAYS FOR 16O
ACRES OF LAND
From the Crop of Wheat on So
Acres in Western Canada.

This story Of paying for your land
out of one years crop is fully anthem
ticated by q great many farmers in
Western Canada.
And now, all that the farmer makes
is velvet and you find him going more
extensively into stock raising, for all
authorities agree that in short time
there will be demand for live stock,
such as even will tax the vast re-
sources of Western Canada. They
will go into stock raising because Of
the adaptability Of the country to pro-
vide food and fodder without feeding
grain if necessary. They will go into
stock and improve their places. They
will install steam and heating plants
In fact, many are now doing 1t. They
will have automobiles, in fact in many
districts there is not farmer but has
one. They will beautify their homes
and erect fine barns until the whole
country will be as attractive as many
of the counties in the best states in
the Union. But we started out to tell
you of the farmer who paid for $50
acres of land from the crop Of wheat
off Of SO acres. The Holden district
on the line of the Grand Trunk Pacific
does not appear to the ordinary OBJ
server to be any better than many
other districts along that line, and
probably isn't. 1t was in this district
that John Larcome, settler, pur-
chased in 1915 100 acres Of raw prai-
RE land. He broke and seeded So
acres. His crop turned out weh, and
he sold the greater portion of it for
S2,97O. His land cost him S16.50 per
acre, or $3.50. So that the crop from
the SO acres paid for the land and left
q balance of over $500, which with
part of the crop left over would just
pay for the cost of operation. This
Is not really an unusual case, hundreds
of other farmers in Alberta and Sas-
katchewan having been able to do the
same.
Sales Of land are being reported
from many districts in Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan and Alberta at good prices.
And values are yet low, but with the
flow of any value that will take place
after the war, no doubt they will be
considerably increased. The home
steads in the Park sections which are
to be had actually free are having
the attention of a good class of set
