Don't Blame the Child.

Don't scold your children for
lack of control over the kidney
secretlons. It is not always the
chlldren's fault-in many cases it
means weak kidneys and can
be readily righted. Read this
Salisbury parents advice.
D w Morris, sol N. Fulton St,
says: When my child was about
two years old it had an attack of
kidney trouble. The child's
kidneys were weak and the secre-
tons were scanty. The trouble
became worse as time passed.
Finally [ gave the child Doan S
Kidney Pills and it certainly Was
wonderful how Doan's helped it
and in a few days had the kid

GRAIN AND MILLING NEWS.

c. NJ. Sherer. of the bureau of plant
industry, department Of agriculture,
says Montana has lost not less than
100000 bushels of wheat this season
through smut, because the seed grain
was not treated sufficiently to kill the
smut spores.
The big crop of wheat raised in the
Judith basin this year can not be
moved unless help from the outside
can be secured, says a dispatch from
Lewistown, Mont. Farmers are offer
ing the highest wages ever paid for
harvest hands in Montana. Three
hundred men can secure steady en-
ployment for two months or longer.
Many fields of grain remain uncut.
while thousands of acres cut lie on the
ground unshocked. 1t is estimated
that the Judith basin has raised over
100000 bushels of grain.
