You don't know what upset your
stomach-which portion Of the food
did the damage-do you? Well don't
bother. If your stomach is in a revolt;
if sick, gassy and upset, and what you
just ate has fermented and turned
sour: head dizzy and aches; belch
gases and acids and eructate undigest-
ed food; breath foul. tongue coated
just take a little Pape's Diapepsin to
neutralize acidity and in five minutes
you wonder what became of the in

Millions of men and women today
know that it is needless to have dys-
pepsia. A little Diapepsin occasionally
keeps the stomach sweetened, and they
eat their favorite foods without fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care of
your liberal limit without rebellion; if
your food is a damage instead of
help, remember the quickest, surest,
most harmless antacid is Pape's Dia-
pepsin which costs only fifty cents for
a large case at drug stores. It's truly
wonderful-it stops food souring and
sets things straight. so gently and cas-
lily, that 1t is really astonishing. Your
stomach will digest your meals If you
keep acids neutralized.-Adv.

the war question, as they have a right
to divide on all questions" said Mrs.

concerned the organized suffragists

"On that date the executive council

Farm Machinery Needed.

The U. S. secretary of agriculture
says:
"It 10 obvious that the greatest and
most important service that is re-
quirsd Of our agriculture under ex-
listing conditions is an enlarged pro.
duetion Of the staple food crops. Be.
cause Of the shortage of such crops
practically throughout the world
there i. no risk in the near future Of
excessive production such as some
times has resulted in unremunerative
prices to producers. This is particu-
!arly true of the cereals and of peas,
beans, cowpeas, soybeans and buck
wheat. In view Of the world scarcity
of food, there is hardly possibility
that the production Of these crops by
the farmers of the United States can
bs too great this year, and there is
abundant reason to expect generous
price returns for all available sur
plus"
This strong encoura cement to farm
ers suggests new methods of meeting
old problems. Machinery must largely
replace human hands in all kinds OF
farm work. Modern machinery is nee
essary to successful farming. Many
farmers get along" without tools that
would save their cost and earn many
dollars every year. Extraordinary con-
ditions exist: we must do our best to
meet them.
With good prices practically assured
this year. would 1t not pay many Of our
farmers to invest in machinery that
would add largely to the productive
ness Of their acres? Even were it nee
essary to make time purchases OF need
ed equipment. would 1t not pay the
farmer to buy. and the country to en-
courage and assist such outlay.

Editors Letter Box
The "Othar Siden

One of the most persistent writer's
to the Kennebec Journal on the ques-
ton OF Americas course in taking up
arms against Germany, is Ennis Mac
Laird Of Cedar Grove, Maine. This
writer claims to have given PRO.
tracted study" Of the subject, but, OBJ
viously. has studied with a preiudiced
mind only to find reasons why this
country should make war on England
as well as Germany. We could have
saved our Cedar Grove friend all this
"protracted study" by forwarding only
small portion of the irresponsible
utterances of the German propaganda
in New York. All these writer's refuse
absolutely to see any difference be-
tween interference with our commerce
and the ruthless slaughter Of our citf
zens. Their grasp of human affairs
shows the animus behind submarine
piracy.
This Cedar Grove writer thinks the
oASieu against England Is
the other side" which American
papers have not published, and that it
should interest every American today.
AS a matter of fact every bit of this
and volumes more have been consid-
cred. discussed and weighed in the
news columns and editorials of the
press Of the Iand. We have con-
demned the pig headed performances
of certain British officials and of wars
red tape, but we have no grievance
against the British government that
cannot be. and must be, adjusted In
dollars. And we would suggest to our
Cedar Grove friend that it would be
an excellent plan to study these two
solemn facts:
That the British fleet today, as it
has for years, stands between America
and Prussianism; that the sub ect
uppermost in America today is to dis
pose of U-boat piracy as Prussianisn's
last bloody card, before it disposes of
England and the democracy of
Europe and leaves US alone guarding
the western hemisphere and our Mon.
roe doctrine.
We publish the last MacLaird letter
to show the much demanded "other
SIDE" but solemnly suggest to the
writer that there comes a time under
war conditions when giving comfort
to the governments enemy becomes
not only unpatriotic but seditious:

Next to the War Problem.

Yesterday we treated one phase of
the agricultural problem and today we
are able to offer from a man familiar
with agricultural affairs of the State
and nation. another side Of 1t. Mr.. c.
e. Embree. known to almost every
farmer In Maine. writes as follows:
About l5 years ago James ]. Hill.
president OF the G. n. II. X. predicted
that within 80 years the farms OF the
United States would not produce suf-
ficient food to meet the requirements
OF the country without sharp curtail-
ment In consumption. Even one year
ago the people would not believe that
there could be a shortage of food
stuffs. However. the time has arrived
and we must meet the situation as
best we can. Potatoes by reason of a
short crop advanced to unheard of
prices, and until their use as food be-
came almost prohibitive. Potatoes
have dropped in price and grain is
having its inning and Maine is send
ing Its wealth to the West in order to
get the material to assure dairy
products. In a letter received from
one Of the officials at Washington I
quote the following:
I'VE realize that there Is a great dispo-
sitton at the moment to forget that the
present high prices to the producers are
simply helping 10 even things up If aver
aged with the low prices which prevailed
a short time ago.
1t Is fully realized that portions of our
distributing machinery have failed to
work as smoothly as they should during
the past season and have aggravated the
situation, which was unusual in that sew
eral Of our perishable crops were short at
time when the buying power of the
country was unusually great. There
seemed at first to be no disposition to
curtail consumption in the face Of ligh
prices. and this. we think. has contributed
largely to very high levels which have
been reached. especially by cabbage,
onions. potatoes and grain"
Aroostook county farmers sold and
are selling their potatoes at high
price but they are paying out a part of
the extra price they received for corn
