KIDNEY SUFFERERS HAVE
FEELING OF SECURITY

You naturally feel secure when you
know that the medicine you are about to
take is absolutely pure and contains 10
harmful or habit producing drugs.
Such medicine is DR.. KiImer's Swamp
Root, kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The same standard of purity, strength
and excellence is maintained in every
bottle Of Swamp-koot.
Swamp-Root is scientifically compound
ed from vegetable herbs.
It is not a stimulant and is taken in
teaspoonful doses.
It is not recommended for everything.
According to verified testimony it is
natures great helper in relieving and over.
coming kidney, liver and bladder trou-
bles.
A sworn statement Of purity is with
every bottle of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root.
If you need medicine, you should have
the best.
If you are already convinced that
Swamp Root is what you need, you will
find it on sale at all drug stores in bottles
Of two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first TO try this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

SALOON TAXES.

The brewers in Reading, Pa, are
taking stand for lower valuations on
the various saloon properties scattered
throughout the city. They claim the
town council should consider, when fix
ing tax valuation, the fact that pos.
sible prohibition will cause a deprecia-
ton in the value of these properties.
Ordinarily saloon properties are val
ued at a higher figure than those adj
joining because they bring much
higher price in the market
On the other hand, saloon, because
of it's usually undesirable character,
depreciates the value Of other proper
ties in It's neighbOrhood. Are they
not entitled to a reduction because Of
depreciation caused by the presence ot
the saloon2

The Making OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia Z. Pinkhan's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman s ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have tc be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal SUBJ
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes IN
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as a final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
1t is the wonderful combination Of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
so successful in the treatment of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use Of
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound which we are continually pub.
fishing attest to its virtue.

Cooperative stores.

While cooperative stores in tho
United States are relatively unsuc-
cessful as compared with typical Coz
operative stores In European coun.
tries, the lack of success is not due
to the failure of the underlying prin-
ciples of such enterprises to hold good
in America, but to the business meth.
DDS generally followed in such under1
takings In this country. This c0nclu-
sion has been reached as result Of
a survey of 60 cooperative stores made
by the Office of markets and rural orr
ganiZation Of the United States depart,
ment of agriculture. In many Ameri-
can cooperative stores which have
failed, mismanagement, inadequate acl
counting and auditing, lack of co-oper1
alton, poor business methods, and lack
of judgment are responsible.
The results of the survey indicate
that the cooperative store has tended
to bring about lower prices, smaller
margins of profit, more efficient busi-
ness methods, and other practices bens
eficial to the farmer.
With the application Of efficient busi4
ness methods and the education of
the farmer to a clear understanding
Of the functions of cooperative stores,
they may be made successful. hi
stances are cited of unusual savings
and large dividends to members of var
rious associations. Such associations
procure capable managers by paying
adequate salaries; take advantage Of
large-scale purchasing and cash dis
counts; maintain proper accounts and
cost records; and watch stock turns
overs.
The more general, underlying con-
ditions which Investigations indicated
should be present if 6 cooperative
store is to be successful are: ID good
leadership among the members, [2l
capable management (3) favorable
environment, with regard both to phys.
zeal location and to social or oceupa.
tional affiliations.

disposed of at no expense to the grow
er. This year the market has been
enlarged and a canning and drying
building added, so that gardeners can
learn to can and dry their own prod
ucts. Drying and canning work is un-
der the direction of the county home
demonstration agent of ella county.
Other Gardens Started.
The success Of the gardens has been
assured from the outset. Since last
year two other large copper companies
in the vicinity have started gardens for
their employees, on the advice of the
county agent. An estimate of what
this work has meant to ella county is
$4,000. This amount is exclusive Of
the small backyard gardens which
have sprung up everywhere. The coun-
ty agent estimates that these backyard
gardens increase from rs to 200 per
cent in a district where regular war
gardens have been started.

ducers a simple homemade sterilizer,
costing not more than $15, which if
used ON the farm will help guard the
milk against this initial and serious
contamination. How great a bearing
sterilization of milk utensils on the
farm has on the bacterial content
Of milk is shown by expert
ments which have proved that the
average milk can, when washed in the
ordinary way, may contain over eight
billion bacteria, and that almost every
milk can so treated harbors millions
Of bacteria which give a high bacterial
count and hasten the souring Of milk.
The homemade sterilizer for dairy
utensils which is to be demonstrated
uses steam as sterllizing agent. All
that is required to develop steam
enough to sterilize the ordinary dairy
utensils is twO-burner Kerosene stove,
and there is nothing about the device
which calls for special skill in its eff
fective use. The department has
twenty of these sterilizers, described
In Farmers Bulletin 74S, and has Of
Tered to supply an outfit for two
weeks demonstration to any local
health or dairy official who will agree
to show it in operation to the milk pro-
ducers in his section.
The effectiveness of this sterilizer
has been fully proved both in the labo-
ratory and on the farm. In one ex-
pertinent ten gallons of fresh milk
were divided into two parts. Five gal
Ions, passed through separator into a
6ve-gallon can, both utensils washed
In the ordinary way, showed at the
end of an hour 1,S80,000 bacteria per
cubic centimeter. The other five gal
Ions, passed through a separator into
can, after both utensils had been
washed and sterilized by means of the
homemade sterilizer, showed olly "a
900 bacteria per cubic centimeter.
The device, moreover, removes foul
Odors and leaves the utensils dry as
well as sterilized. Experience shows
that the bacterial count is thus mate
rally reduced, while the producer finds
that his milk does not sour so quickly
and has an improved flavor.
The specialists Of the dairy division
are hopeful that the device, wherever
1t is demonstrated, will come into COM
mon use. 1t is believed that this ster-
llizer will find ready adoption among
small dairymen because of its low cost
of construction and operation, and be-
cause its use will tend to improve the
quality and increase the keeping char
acter Of the milk.

The president Of the Czecho-Slovak
republic, Prof. T. G. Masaryk, formerly
Of the University of Prague, in lee
ture on Educated Circles Must De
stroy Alcohol Superstition" shows the
responsibility Of the individual for his
neighbor.
Progressive ethics demand of the
modern man a higher state of mind I;
alcoholism degrades the whole man
It is hostile to progress, retrogressive.
"The modern ethic holds love Of
neighbor to be the root of all moral
duties. Love Of neighbor means labor
for ones neighbor. Do not ask Of
the modern man sentimental phil
anthropy but the consciousness of
responsibility for the alienation Of
physical and intellectual need. But
alcoholism weakens sympathy for fell
lowmen, weakens the will to work,
weakens belief and confidence in mans
worth. For an active love of ones
neighbor and labor for him, clean
heart and clear head are also neces-
sary.
Love OF and work for ones neigh.
Dor require, in the case under discus
sion, the example Of abstinence. Ex-
ample against example! Through the
example of drinking are most drink
erg seduced to drinking, No man has
natural craving for alcohol poison.
Especially should the educated give
the example in the present stage OF
our scientific knowledge about alcohol.
A physician, teacher, or educator who
tolerates drinking commits crime. 1t
Is incumbent on the educated and lead
ing circles to destroy the alcohol SUI
perstition theoretically by enlighten-
ment of the people, and practically by
abstinence.

A DENVER BANKER ON PRoHIBI.
TON.

Albert A. Reed, vice president and
trust officer of United States Ma
tlonal bank, says:
without any reluctance and with
out qualification Of any sort am able
to state that the effect of prohibition
in Denver and Colorado have been
beneficial from every point Of view
moral, social, industrial and financial.
This seems to be the almost universal
opinion and judgment of the business
and professional men of Colorado.
"There is no demand, and dare say
little desire, to return to a liquor pol
icy. Personally am in favor Of pro-
hlbition, local, state and national. /
have never heard or seen a valid or
sound argument in support of the
traffic in intoxicating liquors"
