associations. The inquiries in
dictate a widespread interest in
the rural credit system and
shows the system has been need
ed this long time.
The New Orleans Item, in the
following, sets forth in the SIM
plest terms the rules for forming

ton:

cles for such associations have
been printed and are now ready

neighborhood who wish to Dor
row money of the farm loan
bank, adopt the articles sent
you, have each person sign them
and acknowledge them. Have a
notary public present to take
the acknowledgements. Fill in
the blank space at the top with
the name your association
adopts.
"No one can borrow of a farm
loan bank except he be a men,
Der of a farm loan association.
"At this meeting elect board
of five or more directors, a pres
ident, a vice-president, secre-
tary-treasurer and a loan COM
mittee of three members. The

once to value the lands of the
members and prepare its writ
ten report of these valuations,
which must be unanimous.

Trade Hits New Record.


The commerce of the world last year
amounted to $4,000, 00e, 900, compared
with $4,000, 100000 in 1918, the former
high record year, according to a com.
.pilation made public by the National
City bank of New York
AS shown in the banks statement,
the total commerce of the leading ma.
lions in 1916 and 1918, respectively,
was as follows:
United States, s7.7s2,ooo,ooo; $4,277,-
100000.
Great Britain, $1,000, 100000; $685.
100000.
Canada. s1,s5s,ooo,ooo; s1,os5,ooo,-
900.
Japan, $685., 100000 900; s67S,oOo, 900.
In many of the less important coun.
tries the 1916 figures were materially
in excess of those of 1913.
1t was pointed out that these figures
for the countries at war were approx
mately $4,000, 100000 below the real to.
tai, because of the fact that the mer-
chandise imported by the respective
governments for war purposes was not
included in the official trade returns.
In the united kingdom alone the i'm
ports of merchandise for the govern.
ment were estimated at more than 81,
900, 100000, while the value of imports
for the governments of other countries
at war probably amounts to more than
81 900, 100000.

The horse-meat shops in New York
City have either failed outright or
been but indifferently successful.
Why? Horseflesh has long been a
staple article of food in Paris, Berlin
and other cities of Europe, and in
nutritious quality, in flavor and in
cleanliness it is at least comparable
to other meats that are everywhere
regarded as fit for food. It may be
that our prejudice has it's roots in
our appreciation Of the horse as the
best friend of man. %

LADIES! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Grandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attract
i've. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store fora SO cent bottle OF
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
preparation, improved by the addition
of other ingredients, which can be
depended upon to restore natural col.
or and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it
has been applied. You simply dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one strand at time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an.
other application or two, it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire more youthful
appearance. It is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention of
disease.

SENATOR BORAH AGAINST
OUR AIDING THE ALLIES
Will Support Plan to Defend Honor,
But He BaIks at Loan or Sending
Army to Europe.

Washington.-Senato Borah, mem
Der of the senate committee on for
eign relations, Saturday gave out this
statement, which is certain to create
a sensation in administration and con-
gressional circles.
1T is my purpose to support the
government in any measure neces-
and the protection of the lives Of our
citizens. But if the program includes
anything like loaning the credit of
the government or opening the public
treasury to any European nation or
sending our soldiers to the trenches
of the allies or forming alliances with
European powers, l shall not support
that part of the program.
II want to protect American lives
and American rights wherever and
Mexico or in Europe by one belliger-
ent or another But will support
no alliance, and that, in my Judgment
is the thing for which a. great many
people are driving rather than for
the protection of American citizens
Put another. way this means that
Senator Borah, figure Of influence
in the senate, is willing to stand for
armed neutrality, but not for any one
of the other degrees of delinquency
that have been advocated.
Cummins, Norris, Kenyon and Jones
are regarded as very likely to fol-
low Borah's example.

MEAT CAUSE Oh:
KIDNEY TROUBLE
Take Salts to flush Kidneys if
Back hurts or Bladder
bothers.

If you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys
with salts occasionally, says noted
authority who tells us that meat
forms uric acid which almost para
lyzes the kidneys in their efforts to
expel it from the blood. They be-
come sluggish and weaken, then you
suffer with dull misery in the kid
ney region, sharp pains in the back
sick headache, dizziness, your stom-
ach sours, tongue is coated and when
the weather is bad you have rheuma-
tic twinges. The urine gets cloudy,
full of sediment, the channels often get
sore and irritated, obliging you to seek
relief two or three times during the
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces Of Jad Salts from any pharm-
acy here; take tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for
a few days and your kidneys will then
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid Of grapes and lemon
Juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine, so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and makes delightful effer-
vescent Whitewater drink.
