Jack Maltos, Copperopolis, Calf,
says: 81 had such a severe case Of
kidney trouble / thought l would have
to sell out my business. / took three
bottles of Foley Kidney Pills which
entirely relieved me and l have had
no recurrence Of kidney trouble since
then"
Some days it seems as If you can
no longer bear the pain and misery
you suffer from kidney and bladder
troubles. The ache across your back
grows worse with every move you
make. and every step you take. 1t
just seems to rob you of all strength
and energy. Your head aches, you
are nervous and worn out, sleep poorly
and have no appetite, stomach is up-
st and bowels Irregular.
Foley Kidney Pills lessen the pain,
until 1t is finally gone entirely. They
give strength and tone to the kidneys
make them strong, active, their ac-
tion 'ecomes regular and normal
again, and your health grows better
each day you take this great healing
medicine.

Delying into the paving contracts that are on file with the city, Judge 0. II. Sumpter, city attorney, has found that the paving companies which constructed the work on Nal vern avenue, on Benton street. and the concrete paving about the lower section of the city, are all still liable for the upkeep of the paving they built, and Judge Sumpter has notified them to put these streets in excel lent and satisfactory repair at once

DAIRY
FACTS
FEEDING THE DAIRY CALVES
First Aim is to Cut Down WhoIe-Miik
Period-Resuits of Tests at North
Dakota Station.

In feeding the dairy calf, the aim is
TO cut down the period of whole-milk
feeding. At the North Dakota expert
ment station, two lots of four calves
each were fed as follows: Whole milk
first three weeks, both lots. From
then on lot A was fed one-half whole
milk and one-half skim milk till six
months old. Lot B, after three weeks
old, fed skim milk with fiaxseed; just
enough flax was added to supply as
much fat as was given the calves in
lot A in their whole milk. Each calf
was given two gallons of milk a day.
The whole-milk calves made the best
gains the first three months, but dur
ing the next three months the skim
milk calves nearly caught up, the four
lacking but Is pounds of weighing as
much as the whole-milk calves. Sew
eral expert cattlemen who examined
the two lots pronounced the calves
in lot b in as thrifty a condition as
those in lot A. The saving in using
skim milk and flax in place of the
whole milk amounted to $40 per calf
for the six-month period. The grain
and hay cost the same for both lots.

DRYING UP A cow DIFFICULT
Milking Habit in Some Is So Strongly
Developed They Give Milk Up
to CaIving Time.

(By W. S. CUNNINGHAM, Assistant
Animal Husbandman, University of Ari-
IONA Expe riment Station.)
Many times certain cows are very
difficult to.dry up. The milking habit
Is so strongly developed that they tend
to give large quantity of milk right
up to calving time. The proper way to
dry up most cows is to cut off all grain
in the ration and milk only once a day
for a few days. Then lengthen the
periods between milkings by milking
only once in two or three days until
the secretion of milk is nearly stopped.
In very persistent cases the feed sup
ply may have to be cut down more
severely. However, there is little dan
ger of injuring the udder if reasonable
attention is given.

Fixes 1918 Wool Prices.

The war industries board has fixed
the price of 1918 wool clip at the prices
established July 3d. 1917, at Atlantic
seaboard markets on the secured basis.
The government is to have prior
rights on the clips for its needs at
those prices, and the remainder is sub
ject to ALLEGATION for other uses under
the direction of the board. AS the
needs of the government require con-
centration of wool close to points of
consumption, distributing centers have
been approved.
For fleece wool the centers will be
Boston, New York. Philadelphia, Chi
cago. st. Louis, Detroit. Louisville,
Baltimore and Wheeling, w. Va. For
territory wool the centers will be Port
land, Ore. Chicago, New York, st.
Louis, Boston and Philadelphia.
The only exception is that clips of
900 pounds or under may be sold by
the owner.
Fleece wool will be considered as
that grown east of the Mississippi, al
so in Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Ar
kansas and Louisiana, also those parts
of aKnsas, eNbraska, North and South
Dakota and other localities where the
same general conditions prevail. All
wool not listed as fleece wool shall be
considered territory wool.
Approved dealers will be entitled to
a gross profit in no case to exceed l IL
cents per pound on the total season s
business, this profit to cover all ex-
penses from grower to loading wool on
board cars.
Growers who desire to do so will be
allowed to pool their clips in quaint
ties of not less than minimum car.
loads of 10000 pounds and consign the
woods so pooled one to any approved
dealer in any approved distributing
center. Growers are urged to adopt
this latter course through county
agents and others, thus eliminating
the profits of one middleman.
As a guard against profiteering, the
books of all approved dealers in dis
= tributing centers shall be at all times
open to government inspection, and il
it be found that their gross profits, in
GLIDING the aforesaid commission of
per cent, are in excess of per cen
on the seasons business, then sucl
5 gross profits shall be disposed of as tn
y government decides. The books of tn
; country dealers shall likewise be opel
e to government inspection.
e The grower shall be entitled to re
l. ceive an advance up to but not exceed
r ing 70 per cent of the fair estimates
