Mrs. Jno. O'Goaner, who lives at

|OALY ONE MORE WEEK
|. FOR TEXAS LEGISLATURE

AUSTIN, Texas, May Tit Is ex-
pected that both houses will work
with a vengeance this week. as it is
the last full week of the session.
There is plenty to do Tor both, but
there is ample time for the passage
sof all appropriation bills in the Two
branches, besides a number OF the
many local bills submitted by the
governor.
AS yet the senate has considered
ne appropriation bills, while the
house has disposed OF two and made
progress with third. leaving only
one untouched. In former sessions
lit was usually the senate which was
ahead with appropriation and gem
eral legislation, but the house is
leading today.
Another transposition CT the two
bodies Is with reference TO appro-
priations. In the past the house
committee has been for retreneh-
ment and cut allowances to the bone.
In this session the house committee
has shown li3erality wluie the senate
committee siashed the budgets rec
commended by department and insti-
tuition heads.
With the s1.0o0.o00 military bill
and the textbood bill pending today
In the senate that body promises a
parliamentary struggle to determine
which bill has the right of way on
the calendar The house probably
will continue on the military bill and
then return to the educational APP
preparation bill.
1t Is limited that il the Bee text
book bill is not defeated in either
house and there is no apparent ma
iority against it. but it fails OF pas
sage for lack of time. the governor
probably will call another session to
consider the textbook matter, as he
has shown intense interest in it. as
has the state superintendent of pub
lie instruction.

AN ANTIDOTE FOR
URIC ACID POISON

There is process going on with
in the body which often poisons us.
II is something like the story of the
snake being able 10 kill itself with
its own poisons. This is the forma-
ton of uric acid in excess within
the body. 1t is waste product
which takes place in the liver. This
poisonous uric acid is then passed
on to the kidneys, which act as a
filter to pass off and excrete this
poison. II the kidneys are clogged
up. inactive, the poison degenerates
these organs and causes kidney dis
ease. II it is deposited in the tissues,
around the joints OF the body, it
causes rheumatism or govt.
Consequently We must do every
thing to throw off this uric acid
poison, and simple methods are best.
Flush the kidneys by drinking plen-
ty of water between meals; pint

llCaElT SUPPLIES

| WASHINGTON. MAY siao
drier sections of the Southwest where
corn can not be depended upon TO
thrive. farmers can best add to the
nations food supply by growing
grain sorghums more extensively,
say specialists of the u ). depart
ment OF agriculture. These crops, In
Guiding kafir. milo. and feterita, are
drought resistant. and in most sea-
sons produce profitable yields even
/ though corn may be failure III the
same localities. The states In which
these crops may be grown 70 best
advantage are Kansas, Oklahoma,
Texas. New Mexico and California.
Although the sorghum grains.
when ground and used in making
mnshes, breads and puddings. are
comparable to corn in food value,
they have not been used generally Tor
human food in the United States.
Their chief value, therefore, in the
present emergency will be as feed
for live stock and poultry. II used
| in this way they will release for use
las human food large quantities OF
the more common food grains now
| fed to animals.
Because the section in which grain
sorghums may be grown to best adj
vantage is also the most important
lcattIe-raising section in the country,
| farmers growing the sorghums can
combine profitably the growing OF
these grains and the feeding OF live
istoek. the specialists point out. Most
Of the cattle now raised in the grain
sorghum growing country are ship
ped TO the corn belt for fattening on
corn. The sorghum grains which,
| because of their relative newness,
are more difficult TO market than
corn. therefore are left largely I'M
used in the regions of production
and must be held until the supplies
OF corn have been used up in large
part. when the demand for feed
grains draws them into the market.
Il the growers of grain sorghums
will plan To carry more cattle this
season and to fatten them on home
grown grain instead OF shipping
them to the corn belt to be finished,
no difficulty will be experienced in
marketing the sorghum grains. a
ready market for all the meat that
can be produced this year Is assured
The sorghum grains make good
stock feed, having about 80 per cent
the feeding value OF corn, When
these grains can he produced or
bought for less than so per cent of
the cost of corn, it is more profitable
to feed them than to feed corn The
lfattening OF cattle and other stock
in the grain-sorghum belt is made
the more profitable by the fact that
| this region is close to the source of
Icottonseed meal--one OF the most
nutritious protein concentrates for
the feeding ration.
The third tyne of feed needed for
| the efficient fattening OF stock
lsucculent material--may be produced
by ensiling the grain sorghums when
the grain is in the hard dough stage
This silage is as high in food value
as corn silage.
Stock-raising farmers in the sor-
ghum belt should plant large
enough acreage to supply an abund-
anee OF both grain and silage.
