GIVES AWAY 10000 IN BONDS.
Calumet Baking Powder Company a
Supporter of Liberty Loan.

Chicago, Oct. 23.-The Calumet
Baking Powder company of Chicago
are staunch supporters of the policy
of literally rewarding the efforts of
their statesmen. Each year-for years
they have given valuable prizes to
statesmen securing the greatest volume
of business.
This year they will distribute more
than $4,000 in liberty bonds among
their high record statesmen
The giving away of prizes in the
form of liberty bonds was prompted
by a spirit of loyalty to employees and
patriotic duty to country. It answered
the call of ervation'-without
depriving statesmen of awards to which
conscientious selling endeavor is en-
titled. 1t will aid the nation in time
of need and at the same time prove
prizes of real worth and ones of which

Area Far in Excess of
Any Previous Record.
Assurance of 81 a BHsheI Is In
centive to Farmer.
KANSAS WILL DOUBLE CROP
With Spring Acreage, Total
May Reach as Million.
May Need Labor COnscriptiOn
To Handle 1918 Crop.

Chicago, Oct. 23.-American farm
ers will plant more than forty million
acres of winter wheat this year-far
in excess of anything ever known in
this country or any other, B. w. Snow,
grain expert declared today.
This will largely be the result of
government price regulation, assuring
the farmers 50 a bushel for their
crops, Snow told the United Press.
The winter wheat harvested this
year was gathered from 27,763, 900
acres, which was below normal be-
cause of winter killings by frost.
Spring wheat this year had an acre
age of 19.029,0 900. If farmers show the
same disposition toward spring wheat
they do toward winter the combined
wheat acreage in the United States
will reach the enormous total of more
than 100000.
More Than Double in Kansas.
"A winter wheat acreage of more
than 40,060,00O seems assured from
early reports" said Snow. "altho an
accurate estimate cannot be made be-
fore December 1, owing to the differ
ent times for planting in various parts
of the country.
kansas will more than double its
wheat crop, and every other state that
would naturally rotate for wheat, corn
and other crops is putting all avail
able ground into wheat. Unfavorable
weather conditions in southern IL
linois, Missouri and other central
states were relieved early and oondi-
tons are generally favorable for a
banner yield. Early wheat is up and
a good stand is reported
2,50O,0OO Acres in Missouri.
f b. Mumford, dean of agricul-
ture at the University of Missouri, to-
day estimated that the winter wheat
acreage of Missouri will be $500, 600
this year, compared with 10000
last year. He believes improved farm
machinery will help to solve the labor
shortage problem.

When Itching Stops

There is one safe, dependable treatment
that relieves itching torture and skin irri-
tation almost instantly and that cleanses
and soothes the skin.
Ask any druggist for Csc or 81 bottle
of zemo and apply it as directed. Soon
you will find that irritations, pimples,
blackheads, eczema, blotches, ringworm
and similar skin troubles will disappear.
A little zemo, the penetrating, satisfy
ing liquid, is all that is needed, for it
banishes most skin eruptions and makes
the skin soft, smooth and healthy.
