OLD LADY
FEELING FINE
After Taking -Four Bottles o.
Cardui, The Woman's Tonic.

Golden, Ill.-"Having used Cardui,
the woman's tonic, in my family, for a
number Of years." writes Mrs. Kate
Metz, Of this town, "and always with
such good results, feel it my duty to
write you about it, SO that you may
publish my letter.
My mother is living with me, and
she is 81 years old. For the last three
or four years, she has been troubled e
great deal with cramping spells, and
for days at time, she would have a
severe headache.
She read of how much Cardui has
helped other women who were sick
and ailing, and decided to give it a
trial. She began taking it three times
a day, and since then has been getting
along simply fine. $50.
Mother only used four bottles Of
Cardui, but she is no longer troubled
with the severe headaches, and her
stomach is so much stronger that she
can eat most anything.
We both feel that any lady who Is
not strong and we'll, would be greatly
benefited by the use Of Cardui."

Breed for Dairy Calves.

COWS calving in the fall not only
produce more butter fat, but pro-
uucs the larger part of it at a time
when it 10 most valuable, Proba-
bly, the most profitable month for
COWS to freshen are October and
the eearly part of November. In
btderi,to do this, they should be
bred during January or early in
February.
Cows freshenipg in the winter
can be turned out on pasture when
The milk flow begins to slacken and
needs the stimulation of succulent
feed. The calf is carried through
the winter on milk and by spring
is able to make better use OF pas
ture. On the other hand, a spring
calf is carried through the pasture
season on milk and has to be put
on dry feed during the winter.
At the Ohio Experiment Station
some calves born in the fall were
raised for about SIS less than Others
born in the spring. Under average
farm conditions this difference
wouldgbe even greater, as no grain
would be fed to fall born calves on
pasture, while those at the station
were given grain because of short
age of pasture this season.
The fill calf must have good
shelter and be given little better
q, care than the spring calf, but there
10 more time.in winter to do the
extra chores.-Kansas Farmer.

TO CRUSH DISLOYALS
LABOR MEET CLOSES WITH ELEc-
TIoN OF. GoMPERs.
Statement Of Aims Given Which Says
Preservation Of Democracy Is
Overshadowng Issue.

Minneapolis, Sept. 10.-The Ameri-
can Alliance for Labor and Democ-
racy, organized three weeks ago with
President Wilson's approval, concluded
It's big loyalty conference here on Fri
day with the election of officers and
the adoption of ringing declaration
of principles.
The alliance, composed of the ma
tons labor leaders and having as it's
double purpose the crushing of dis
loyalty and the solidifying of labor
in the war for democracy, by unani-
nous vote elected as it's leader Sam
uel Gompers, president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor.
'The overshadowing issue" the dec
laration says, sis preservation of
democracy. Either democracy will
endure and men will be free or au-
tocracy will triumph and the race
will be enslaved. To compromise
now would be to sow seed for a
bloodier war;"

Petrograd, Sept. 8.-Russia's Baltic
feet will make desperate defense of
Petrograd and the bases Of Kronstadt
and Reval. Official assurances to this
effect were given in dispatches to the
provisional government from the COM
manders of those ports.
A most significant feature Of this
important development is that it shows
that the grave new peril facing Russia
since the fall Of Riga Is uniting the
hostile political factions. A large part
Of the Baltic fleet has been under con-
troll of the Maximilists, who, up to the
present, have maintained hostile at
titude towards the Kerensky govern
ment.

Washington, Sept. 11.-Diplomatic
relations between the United States
and Sweden are strained as the result
of discovery that German official tel
egrams were forwarded to Berlin
through the Swedish legation at Bue-
nos Aires. The fact that messages
from German Charge d'Afaires Lux
burg at Buenos Aires to the German
foreign office had been forwarded
through the foreign Office at Stockholm
was revealed in an official statement
issued on Saturday by the state de-
partment. The messages concerned the
diplomatic situation in Argentine and
dealt with the method to be pursued
by submarines in sinking Argentine
ships
The text of the messages forwarded
to Berlin by way of Stockholm is in
the hands OF the state department.
Secretary of State Lansing made the
following statement:
'The department of state has se-
cured certain kilograms from Count
Luxburg, German charge d'affaires at
Buenos Aires, to the foreign office at
Berlin, which, regret to say, were

ton by the senateias soon as the pend,

wanted to make it $4,000, but Demo
cratic Leader Kitchin would not agree
to that.

per cent bonds, subject to supertaxes
and war profits taxes, and to termi-
nate at the discretion of the secretary
of the treasury. OF this total $4,000
