Foreign news was reported rather
disturbing. foreign security issues

tons in the stock market were less ia
vorable, with actions restricted, fluctu-
atoms narrow. but nearly continuously
in the line of fractional recessions, dur

favorable for assumption of control OF

of the managers for higher freight

The result was quickly evident in

Get the Habit Of
Drinking Hot Water
Before Breakfast
Says we can't look or feel right
with the system full
Of poisons.

Millions of folks bathe internally
now instead of loading their system
with drugs. "What's an inside
BATH" you say. Well, it is guaran-
teed to perform miracles if you
could believe these hot water en-
thusiasts.
There are vast numbers of men
and women who, Immediately upon
arising in the morning, drink glass
of real hot water with a teaspoonful
of limestone phosphate in it. This
is very excellent health measure.
1t is intended to flush the stomach,
liver, kidneys and the thirty feet of
intestines of the previous days
waste, sour bile and indigestible
material left over in the body which
if not eliminated every day, become
food fo rthe millions of bacteria
which infest the bowels, the quick
result is poisons and toxins which
are then absorbed into the blood
causing headache, bilious attacks,
foul breath, bad taste, colds, stom-
ach trouble, kidney misery, sleep
lessness, impure blood and all sorts
of ailments.
People who feel good one day and
badly the next, but who simply can
not get feeling right are urged to
obtain a quarter pound of limestone

DRUGS EXCITE YOUR -
KIDNEYS, USE SALTS
If Your Back Hurts, or Bladder
Bothers, Drink Lots of Water

When your kidneys hurt and. your
back feels sore, don't get scared
and proceed to load your stomach
with a lot of drugs that excite the
kidneys and irritate the entire uri-
nary tract. Keep your kidneys clean
like you keep your bowels clean,
by flushing them with mild, harm
less salts which removes the body's
urinous waste and stimulates them
to their normal activity. The func-,
ton of the kidneys is to filter the
blood. In "a hours they strain from
it 500 grains of acid and waste, so
we can readily understand the vital
importance of keeping the kidneys
active. a -
Drink lots of water-you can't
drink too much; also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces Of
Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast
each morning for a few days and
your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid
of grapes and lemon juice, combin-
ed with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean and stimulate
clogged kidneys; also to neutralize
the acids in urine so it no longer is
a source of irritation, thus ending
bladder weakness. ID.
Jad Salts is Inexpensive; cannot
injure; makes a delightful efferves-,
cent lithia-water drink which every
one should take now and then to
keep their kidneys clean and active.
Try this, also keep up the water
drinking, and no doubt you will
wonder what became of your kid
ney trouble and backache.-Adv.

GARBAGE FOR FEEDING HOGS

Since the establishment of canton
ments for the training of our soldiers
there has arisen considerable inter-
est in the use of the large amount
of garbage from these institutions
for the feeding of hogs. For the
prevention of disease which might
be carried to other animals by garb-
age and stable manure from these
camps there has been in a disposition
to burn them, the safest and easiest
manner of disposal. Already stock
yard companies have been required
to burn the manure from their pens
and the ashes are being disposed of
for fertilizer. In the burning of
The Abbeville press and banner. [volume] (Abbeville, S.C.) 1869-1924, 1917-11-27

garbage and manure much valuable
hog feed and fertilizer are destroyed
In burning the stable manure only
the lime, phosphoric acid and potash
are saved, the nitrogen, its most valu'
able constituent, being driven off
into the air and lost.
Garbage from largehotels and
some cities is used for hog feeding
to some extent. There is danger OF
spreading disease, but this can be
supply is sufficiently large and its
permanence assured it may be found
profitable to cook it, save a large
part of the fats or grease and feed
the balance to hogs, At present
the grease should more than pay for
the cooking and saving of the fats.
A reader wants to know if this gar
bage is complete ration for finish
ing hogs?
In feeding garbage it is necessary
to make sure that the lye and wash
ing powders used in dish washing
and broken glass and other such
foreign matter be kept out of it. If
this be done and the hogs are i'm
munized against cholera, or if the
garbage be cooked, there, is little
danger from feeding it. There is,
however, some danger in feeding
it if it is not fed comparatively
fresh. Cases of poisoning have oc-
Cured when garbage has been al
lowed to partially decompose be-
compose before being fed.
We think it will be found advis-
able to use some hard or dry grain
with the tankage. AS to whether
the tankage carries sufficient of
each of the nutrients to form a
fairly well balanced ration and give
the best results will depend on what
is included in the garbage, but we
think the chief reason for feeding
some dry or hard concentrate in
finishing the hogs is to harden and
improve the carcass. For the last
four or five weeks before slaught-
ering or selling a mixture of two
or three parts of corn to one of
cottonseed meal might constitute
at least half the ration to good ad-
vantage.
Tankage alone may make cheaper
