HELPFUL WORDS
From an Emmett Citizen.

Is your back lame and painful?
Does it ache especially after exer-
ton?
Is there a soreness in the kidney
region?
These symptoms suggest weak kid
neys.
If so there is danger in delay.
Weak kidneys get fast weaker.

Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak
kidneys.
Your neighbors use and recommend
them.

irregular action of my kidneys and

EASTER
Comes On April 9Th And Here's Some
Facts Abont h.

Easter Sunday falls in this year Of
grace on April s. being neither late nor
early. Last year it came on April %.
and next year it will fall on March 81.
In 1913 Easter Sunday came upon Il e
earliest date for it in this century,
March %. Last wears Easter SUNDAY,
on April %, was as late az IT will be
before the year 1900. when it again
falls on that date.
Easter is what is called movable
festival. 1t is always ned on the next
Sunday after vernal full moon, with
the exception that if the vernal full
moon should fall on Sunday. then, to
avoid all conformity with the Jewish
practice. Easter is not kept till the fol.
lowing Sunday, The vernal full moon
Is thai which takes place either on
March z. or on the next date after
March 81. II the vernal full moon falls
on March q and that day happens to
he Sunday then Easter cannot be held
till April 20, which is the latest date
or which Easter can fall, the earliest
being March %
From the earliest ages various Gus
toms and superstitions have associated
themselves with Easter. As at Christ
mas, II used to be believed that I'LL
water was turned into wine and that
ali cattle kept in their stalls knelt in
alteration Of the infant Savior. so it
was held that at Easter the sun danced
in honor Of Christs resurrection.

One Egg in Every Six is Wasted.

1t is estimated that seventeen
per cent, of the eggs produced,
one of every six is wasted be-
cause of improper handling by
producer or distributor.
Thirteen million dozen, we are
told, spoil every year from tiny
cracks not observed by seller or
buyer. Over five million dozen
spoil from the effects of washing.
Many more millions of dozen
decay because the ROSTERS are
left with the hens after the
Matching season is over.
Some day farmers will candle
all their eggs at home and send
only fresh, clean eggs to market.
Some day the buyers will accept
no other kind, or if they buy
cracks" and 'dirties," or take
fertile eggs In the summer time,
take them at a reduced price for
the local market only. Some
day, too, the farmers will work
out a better system of marketing
than the country store and the
retail grocery, with their care
less methods of handling and
long delays in shipment, now
offer.
In the meantime it will pay any
farmer who has many eggs to
sell and who wishes to build up
a reputation and a profitable
market for his product, to sep
arate the male birds from the
laying flock, to provide clean
nests, to gather up eggs every
day and store in a cool place, to
take them to market 80 often as
may be, to leave all that are
stained, cracked, understood or
of doubtful age at home. South

The Truck and The Trucker.

The most modern and efficient
means of marketing is the motor
truck. With the motor truck a
farmer living, say eight miles
from the city or station, can
start at 8 o'clock, deliver his
goods and get home in time to
eat his dinner and get the truck
for the next day in readiness;
whereas, the same farmer, by
the old way of horse and wagon,
would have to start before sunup
and would usually get back home
by shutdown. He would then
have to take the next day to get
his truck ready. In that way
he would lose a day, and might
lose some truck that would have
been all right had it been mar
keted a day earlier.
Some truck farmers buy a reg
ular motor truck, while others
get "traiiers, a" that is, a small
wagon, to hook on behind their
car. By the former way they
can carry heavier loads, but the
latter is preferred by the major
ity, as it is large enough to han
die the products of most truck
farms, and the car can also be
used for pleasure, as the trail
err" can be unlocked at any
time.
Another way some truck farm
ers do is to buy a secondhand
Ford roadster or touring car and
have truck bodies :put on them
by the blacksmith, who will usu-
ally do it cheap. This is cheap
er, at first cost, than buying a
new truck, but it will pay in the
long run to buy a new one.
If you want to get the best
service out of your car or truck,
keep it we'll oiled and the spark
plugs clean. You can never get
full power from your engine I'M
