is the Cause
of Rheumatism
Lumbago and
G,out?
Bv Valentine Mott Pierce. NJ. d.

(By Valentine Mott Pierce, NJ. d.
Ever since Scheele. in 1775, discovered
that uric acid was present in the system.
scientific men have been making expert
mental Investigations and it is the almost
universal opinion of our best medical
men that the presence of uric acid in the
system in excess is the cause of rheuma-
tism and govt. When the urate salts are
precipitated out of the blood into the solid
tissue-structure the person suffers from
govt and rheumatism in the muscles and
Joints, or suffers from lumbago and pain
in the back muscles. The first aim of the
sufferer should be to get rid of the uric
acid, which, in excess is a poison, and to
do this it is well to drink about a pint of
hot water morning and night-get tablets
Of Anuric double strength at the near
est drug store and take them before
meals regularly. Anuric will do no harm
to the system and will carry off the uric
acid by stimulating the kidneys. Then
tincture iodine may be painted oyer the
swellngs, or in more severe cases hot
linseed poultces may be applied to soothe
the local symptoms. But most important
is it for the sufferer TO abstain from
meat. to diet, drink only lemonade or hot
water, and take Anuric for a consider
able time as it causes a drainage outward
of the uric acid and is many times more
potent than ltha and usually one finds
that it dissolves uric acid as hot water

Forest Receipts

The total net receipts OF the MAJ
tional Forests in the state OF Idaho
during the fiscal year 1917 amount
ed to almost s369.90O.
The National Forests located south
of the Salmon river contributed
s194,SO0 Of this sum.
25 per cent of the total realized
from the utilization and sale OF the
public resources of the National for
ests is turned over each year for
road and school purposes to the state
and counties within which the for
ests are located. Idaho's 1917 share
of this fund amounted to almost $685.
500, the Forests south OF the Sal

this amount
Besides this fund, an addittnnal
10 per cent of the net receipts is ex-

The Hay Shortage

The Breeders Gazette, probably
the most reliable and trustworthy
stock publication that reaches the
farmers, has the following regarding
the hay shortage throughout the
country:
American farmers face the worst
shortage of hay ever experienced.
They do not realize 1t. 1t will cost
some of them dearly before grass
comes green next spring. All over
the country a large proportion of
farmers plowed up meadows to
plant corn, and they plan to buy
hay to feed their stock next spring
after the stalk fields and straw stacks
are utilized. A surprisingly large
number of farmer who always har-
vest hay for their own use did not
this year put up any even for their
own horses. They say they will buy
hay for their horses when field work
begins next spring. Several OF these
men in Illinois canvassed together
the situation a few days ago and
finally concluded that they would
probably be compelled to pay $35 to
$40 a ton for hay before another crop
is harvested. They therefore decid-
ed to buy their hay now while 1t can
be secured at $40 to s25.
