Many a Mother in Grand Rapids VIII
Appreciate the Following.

Many strong man and many a
healthy woman has much for which
to thank mother The care taken dur
ing their childhood brought them past
the danger point and made them
healthy men and women. Thousands
of children are bothered with incon-
thence of urine, and inability to re
tain it is ofttimes called a habit. It
is not always the children's fault-in
many cases the difficulty lies with the
kidneys, and can be readily righted.
A Grand Rapids mother tells how she
went about it.
Mrs. L. j. Thompson, 512 Johnson
ST., Grand Rapids, says: "My young
est boy was afflicted with weak kid
neys from birth and the kidney Sc
cretions seemed to be beyond his con-
troll.
Two or three boxes of Doan's Kid
ney Pills quickly cured him and the
trouble has never returned. 1t is a
pleasure to recommend Doan's Kidney

MUCH WORK TO
Be DONE HERE
Polk County Experiment Station
to Carry on Fight Against
Animal Diseases.

A more determined fight than ever
before will be made this year by the
Polk county experimental station at
Crookston against animal diseases.
according to announcement in giving
the Crookston station a larger budget
this year than formerly.
The loss from contagious abortion
alone. says the monthly report Of a
station bulletin just issued, amounts to
not less than ten million per year in
the state. The loss from hog cholera
and other diseases is also enormous.
Laboratories have been established in
most of the experiment stations
throughout the state in an effort to
investigate the matter fully, but here
tofore funds have not been available
The directors report also points out
the need Of gaining control Of plant
diseases. such as rust, which did much
damage to wheat last year. Along
with the work of preventing rust will
go that of preventing potato and
fruit diseases.
A soil survey Of Polk county and
other sections Of the state will also
be made during the coming season,
according to the report.
The past year in Minnesota has been
one Of progress, declares the report,
but one which has pointed out new
and imperative needs.

SAYS GERMAN PEOPLE
ARE HEALTHY AND THE
INFANT DEATHS LOWER

Amsterdam. (via London). March
22.-The health of the German peo-
pie is surprisingly good and infant
mortality Is lower than in peace
times, according to Vice Chancellor
Helnerich. The vice chancellor is
quoted by Berlin dispatches to Reu-
ter's as saying in speech before the
Reichstag as saying:
Our fears regarding the possible
effects of restricted food supply are
unfounded. Moreover the health Of
the people is surprisingly good and
infant mortality lower than in peace
times. =" Great. Britain's efforts
with the plough proves the import
ance she attaches to the submarine
war. Her imports will be further re-
stricted by our submarines"

VALLEY FLOOD
IS FEARED
THIS SPRING
Preparations Made in East
Grand Forks for Annual
Overflow of the Red.

Preparations are being made in
East Grand Forks for q flood. Every
thing that would float away has been
removed from the city park at the
end Of North Fourth street, and many
of the residents in the lower sections
ef the city whore the river could reach
during a flood have made prepara-
tions to meet the conditions.
Many OF the residents in the flood
districts will leave their homes for
higher land during the fiood season,
while others will attempt to keep the
water out by means of low dykes
built up about their buildings All
have emptied their Easements of mov-
ables. in order to prevent them from
being destroyed when the water en-
ters this spring.
Dyke Proposition Dropped.
The proposition of constructing a
dyke. 800 feet long and 10 feet high,
In tho north end OF town about the
city park district considered by the
city council at the last regular coun-
cost 1t is feared at this time Of the
year. would be prohibitive. az the
ground would necessarily have to be
blasted with dynamite.
Action, however. may be taken by
the city authorities this summer to
construct dyke in order to prevent
future floods of this nature.
Work has been started by west side
and local officials, working in con-
junction, to strengthen the east ap-
proach Of the DeMers avenue bridge
to Withstand the pressure that will be
put upon it when the heavy ice cakes
begin floating down the river after the
spring breakup. Piles are being driv-
en- today, and ice breaks will be con-
structed.
Bridge is Repaired.
In the central portion Of the bridge,
where the ice breaks were destroyed
last spring, large booms, securely
fastened to the remaining portion OF
the ice breaks with steel cables, have
been placed. 1t ia hoped that this will
prevent the ice from striking the pier
underneath the center of the bridge.
In the farming districts north and
south Of the city. preparations are be-
ing made by the farmers to save
their crops and buildings.
