Tho ooel question wtn b. eolvsd. ao far as the West Coast 1, concerned. with the completion of the new Unitea States government railroad In Alaska in the spring of 1918.
 Government contracts will be award ed to Southern California corporations for the construction of gigantic col Hers.
 Steel factories will be established ih Los Angeles for the handling Of iron ore from Riverside and SanBernardino counties.
 re reindeer ranches of the Far North are destined to settle the mea, question for the United States.
 The fisheries of the north coast waters will be able to furnish prac tically all the sea food of the entire country within the next century.
 The gold. copper and other valuable mines of Alaska have scarcely been scratched and the next few years will see an Alaskan boom not now dreamed of by the most optimistic business men of the United States.
 These are some of the statements and predictions of F. R. Feitshans, president of the Los Angeles Desk Company and a prominent mining en, gineer, who has just returned from visit of two months in the northern territory, during winch time he was the guest of Governor Strong and other prominent government ol..c'&t. at Seward and at other points aIons the new railroad, says & recent Issue of tNe Los Angeles Times.

mously, while live stock in every case has gone down,
 The falling off in cereals last year was about 10000 acres: this year there Is an increase of 467,000 acres The falling off in green crops last year was 22.000 acres; this year there is an increase of 151,000 acres. The total ac2ss of cereals and green crops, plus flax end fruit, is now S,osss,ooo acres, an Increase Of ss7,ooo acres or 2s par cent. the largest comparative increase being in Connaught, with s2s percent. and the smallest in Ulster. with POT per cent.
 The greatest cereal crop In Ireland Is oats, which stands a. 1,4e4.0o acres, an increase over last year of 3S2.000 There are many possibilities as a re- suit of this remarkable expansion, not the least Of which Is the Likelihood of a greatly increased local manufacture of oatmeal for human consumption, for which purpose some of :he old windmills may be set going again.
 The acreage sown with barley also shows an increase. In the face of the fact that the business of breweries and distilleries has been heavily re- stricted. A ten per cent. increase in turnips notwithstanding c decrease in cattle and sheep of over s0,ooo head. is no doubt explained by the fact that ,urnips--formerly a purely fodder crop are being increasingly used this year az human food and have been selling at good prices.
 The potato acreage has Increased from 5ss8,O0O acres to 7O9, 9,000 This Is due largely 60 the high prices which formers obtained for last year's crop. and the fact that they have been guar anteed e good figure for the crop of this year

mrs PHILLIPS TAKES
IRON If BLOOD IS BAD
Suffered Two Years With Peliagra.
Couldn't Walk About the House.
Iron Built Her Up.
TELLS WHAT KIND OF IRON TO
TAKE.

Everyone's energy, vitality and
general good health depends so much
upon the condition of their blood, and
the normal functioning OF the vital
organs of the stomach, kidneys, liver,
and bowels, the slightest irregularity
should be corrected Immediately.
Anyone troubled with their blood
for instance, is sure to sooner or later
experience uric acid pains, weak,
lame back: lost strength; nervous
ness; headaches; dizzy spells, or some
other kindred symptoms, and iron
has become so we'll known as the one
best remedy everybody should use
it. The question is, in what
form? Iron is put up by the
chemist in pills, liquid solutions,
and mixed with all sorts of
elements, including, in some cases,
altogether too much alcohol for the
good of the system.
The cheapest, strongest, most eff
cient remedy is plain, natural iron,
highly concentrated, and bottled just
as nature intended it should be TAX
en-. 1t is called Acid Iron Mineral, is
sold by druggists in fifty-cent and dol
lar bottles. 1t goes from two to six
times as far. 1t will help the diges-
ton, stomach, kidneys and blood. If
the bowels are inactive good liver
pill like the AIM Liver Pill at 25c
for a generous size box is recommend
ed. People with normal bowels
should not use iron formed in COM
bination with laxatives. Altogether
too many remedies contain purg-
atives.
To indicate how quickly Acid Iron
Mineral will cleanse the blood and
tone up the general system and re-
new the wasted strength the state
ment of Mrs. n. E. Phillips, of Ker-
shaw, S. c., is quoted below:
II began to be troubled with my
bowels, stomach and blood little
over two years ago. 1t finally turned
into pellagra and at the end of that
two years suffering l couldn't even
walk about the house. Mrs. Ella
Hunter suggested I take Acid Iron
Mineral and after taking it six weeks
and using but four small bottles, am
up and about doing my work and
gaining in strength every day. 1t
has done me more good than anything
I have ever tried and am glad indeed
to recommend it to anyone who needs
a good tonic or for pellagra or stom-
ach trouble
A teaspoon of Acid Iron Mineral
in glass of drinking water after
meals makes an unusual, powerful,

Last Spring We heard quite num-
Der of people say they were going tc
experiment with barrel gardening
All sorts OF stories were told of the
possibilities of a hill of Irish pota'
toes in a barrel But, somehow, We
have never heard from the expert
ments. Won't some of those who
tried it out tell us the results?
The colored people of Bambers
did handsomely by the coiored select
ed men Thursday night. The negro
population of this county has stood
squarely with the government in al
respects, as was to be expected. The
fcr,y-eight men leaving Friday morn
ing for Camp Jackson were fine
looking and intelligent lot of men
and We have no doubt they will rend
er patriotic service both at home and
abroad The whole people of the
county stand behind the Bambers
men in service, both white and col.
ored, and we do not doubt that the
county will be made to feel proud OF
them.
The Herald apologies to its read
ers for again incorrectly quoting the
Bamberg cotton market. Two weeks
ago we quoted cotton at three cents
below the prevailing price, and last
week did worse-quoting it at five
cents under the price paid by the
buyers. There was no plausible ex-
cuse for making the error, and we
can only attribute it to the hurry of
"getting to press" The first quota
ton we received Wednesday after
noon was 25 Il cents, few minutes
later we learned that 25A was being
paid In changing the line to read
25A, the error was made on the
linotype maCn1ne, anu IN tue hurry
to get the form on the press the cor
rection was not prof-read.
Rev. J. D. Higgins, in a letter to
the Baptist pastors and churches
published in this issue, uses strik-
ing thought: Our president, thanks
to our gracious Father in heaven, is
one of the best and wisest men who
ever sat in this high place, and one
of the best and wisest in all the
world. We will take his word" That
has ring to it that is good to hear.
Undoubtedly He who holds the des
tiny of the world in the palm of His
hand has directed the affairs of this
nation wisely in permitting this great
mar to be the chief executive of the
greatest nation in the world at the
most critical period in the history
of the world. Let us have absolute
confidence in this man who has dis
played his wisdom on so many oc-
,casions. I'VE will take his word
