Idaho Expects Every Man to Do His Duty

far insufficient to meet the demands
The public utilities commission, the
state farm market director, the feder-
al food, the federal fuel commissioners
and members of the Idaho congression-
al delegation, have all called. to the
attention of Washington the needs OF
the State.
While the State Council appreciates
the difficulties the Director General
and those associated with him have
to face and solve in the general
freight congestion over the country,
yet it realizes, too, the loss that grow
ers and shipperc in Idaho, because OF
the failure of this State to get its
proportionate share of refrigerator
cars to carry produce to markets, are
destined to suffer, in fact have suffer
ed, in a number Of instances. 1t
lends it's appeal to those Of other rep
resentative agencies OF the State for
immediate relief. There is still a vast
quantity Of hay and potatoes to be
moved out of this state. This ton
mage must move shortly-in fact
should be moving now. Failure to
move will mean financial disaster. 1t
would take from consumers both at
home and abroad produce that can
not afford to be lost to the country.
Idaho's appeal should be needed now
and plans made early this year to pro-
| vent a REPETITION Of the conditions
that have caused so serious, and II
might also be said disastrous, car
shortage. To give this relief 5000
cars are needed, $500 of which should

WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK

Kidney Diseases Cause Many Aches
And Ills OF Stanford People

As one weak link weakens chain,
so may weak Kidneys weaken the
whole body and hasten the final
breaking down.
Overwork. strains. colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and gen
orally when their activity is lessened
the whole body suffers.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills frequently come, and
there is an ever-increasing tendency
towards dropsy, gravel or fatal
Bright's disease. When the kidneys
fail there is no real help for the suf-
ferer except kidney help.

the kidnevs. Stanford testimony is
proof Of their effectiveness.
