To The Public

In a lecture at one of the Des
Moines, Iowa, churches missionary
from India told of going into the in
terror of India, where he was taken
sick, that he had a bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy with him and believed that it
saved his life. This remedy is used
successfully in India both as a pre-
ventive and cure for cholera. You
may know from this that it can be
depended upon for the milder forms
of bowel complaint that occur in this

REDS FLOCK TO BE MARRIED
chippewas in Large Numbers Obeying
Justices Order That They Must
Be Legally Married.

Deer River, Minn.-This village was
visited by large delegation of young
Chippewa Indians of both sexes from
the Bowstring country, who came here
to be married by Justice Ed Cahill.
The justice a week ago declared he
would give them a week in which to
get married, subsequent to many ar
rests made by the sheriff of Itasca
county on complaint of the Indian
agent at Bena that young Indian
couples are living together without be-
ing legally married.
1t is not the intention of the depart-
ment, it is said, to interfere with the
marital rights of the older natives, who
married years ago under tribal laws,
but it is the younger members, and
in most cases the well-educated ones,
some of whom have college Quotations,

department of the Nebraska Agricul-
tural College total very close to $500
or from 81 to $3.50 per acre.
This figure includes depreciation
charges on buildings and machinery
an dthe value of all labor including
that of the farmer himself at the rate
of wages for hired men. 1t does not
include the interest on the value of the
land. On 500 land this would be at
least S. per acre; on $3.50 land, $3.50,
or as much as all other expenses COM
bined.
Operating expenses are about the
same on all farms with the exception
of the extremely large or extremely
small farms, regardless of whether or
not they are showing a loss or return
ing profit. This is evidence that it
is impossible to reduce expense of OPP
Grating a farm below a certain point,
and that profits are not made by reduc-
ing expenses but by increasing farm
receipts.

GREAT SAVING IN SIGHT
BY CARL YRO0MAN
Assistant Secretary OF Agriculture

WASHINGTON-Wit going be-
yond their own dooryards millions OF
American women can render real serv-
ice to the nation. The service is as
real as that rendered by the soldier
on the field of battle 1t is to plant
and care for the little plot Of land
that lies back of the house-to make
a home garden.
One million dooryard gardens plant
ed in our suburbs and cities this spring
would mean national saving of pos
sibly $50,0OO,000, sum as large as
that which President Mckinley was
given by congress for the prosecution
of the Spanish-American war. Growing
vegetables for home consumption in
these gardens would relieve the rail-
roads of the necessity of carrying
millions of pounds of bulk freight thu
releasing thousands of cars and en-
gines for hauling men and munitions.
Our experts have calculated that an
average American family uses about

not take but a fraction of an acre to
produce this quantity of this important
foodstuff since fair yield of this crop
is 200 bushels in a season, and it is
not uncommon for potatoes to run to
400 or more bushels per acre.
Radishes, lettuce, early beets, sbeans,
peas, tomatoes, spinach, and numerous
easily cultivated vegetables can be
raised in the back yard provided the |
sold is fertile and intelligence is en-
ployed in the process. There is no
reason in the world why 100000 back
yard gardens should not be planted
this spring planted as soon as the
ground is warm enough, and supply
3,000,000,000 families with good, cheap,
nutritious foods all this summer, war
or no war.
The hitherto wasted resource of our
dooryard land should be utilized at
once. 1t is no more work for wom-
an to tend a vegetable garden than it
is to tend flower garden or a house
plant. AT present it is more patriotic
to subordinate flowers to food.

Auto Tax ON Right Basis


The fact that heavy truck will
do more damage to a macadam road
than motorcycle is nothing new
to most people. Only recently, how
ever, have efforts been made to diff
ferentiate between heavy and light
weight automobiles through taxation
proportionate to the road wear for
which each type is responsible.
Idaho is the first state to make
the automobile contribute to road
maintenance on the basis of weight
Under provision of a law passed at
the last session of the Idaho legisIa-
ture and approved by the governor,
licenses will be issued according to
the following standards: Two thou
sand pounds or less, SIS; between
1000 and 5000 pounds, $40; be-
tween 5000 and 1000 pounds, $50;
and above 1000 pounds, $40
This measure is indicative of the
on the part of the pub
lie of the economic phase of the
weight question. Since
realize that the heavier
car the greater its woodworking ten
lency will be, they can easily under
stand, because of the same funda-
mental principle, the relation of heavy
weight to tire mileage and the life
