 The disease has made it's greatest progress in the east where it has claimed its victims by the thousands Reports from other sections however, are equally alarming, and both civil and military authorities have warned the public to make every precaution to prevent its further spread. In

.NINDOOS TERRIFY
 TURKISH ENEMIES
SILENT DEATH IN BLACkNESS OF NIGHT IS FATE OF OUTPOST OF TURKISH ARMY IN HOLY LAND.

With the British Forces in Pales- tine, Sept 20.-Silent death in the blackness of the night is the fate of unnumbered Turkish sentries sur. prised at their posts by patrols of Indian troops with the British army has impressed upon the Ottoman sol. dier a wholesome respect for those dark skinned fighters who have re placed many white contingents sent to other fronts.
 The clevernesS of the Gurkhas at stalking has had terrifying effect npon the minds of the Turks, who are constantly finding their men dead at the advanced stations, with nothing to betray the coming and go- ing of the foe. The result has been case of nerves" among the enemy prompting constant alarms.
 Gurkhas and Sikhs, eager for act i've fighting, are constantly suggest. ing raids and sectional attacks, un- consciously answering the exultant predictions of enemy publicity organs
 
 would open the way for an early Turkish offensive which would sweep the British forces from the country.
 In action the Indian troops are as keen as in anticipation of it. Their approach, even after the warning of a barrage, inevitably is so swift as to take the Turks completely off their guard Recently in broad daylight Gurkhas reached unobserved point within close range of the enemy trench. They rushed it and without firing a shot killed 15 Turks and brought back as many prisoners. One of the attackers was wounded.

 Medical authorities agree that peo- ple who are weak and run down are the earliest victims of the influenza epidemic. If you find yourself tired, weak and losing flesh, or If you are in a generally run down condition or if you catch cold easily this warning should be needed promptly. You are really in great danger because the germ of this disease is very catching and you are apt to fall an easy VIC tim if you come in contact with the germs People who are well and strong are not likely to contract the disease because they are able to throw it off. The common-sense way to keep from having it is to fortify the system against attack by building up the constitution.
 In other words, use the old adage, "An unce of prevention is worth pound of cure' And if you are Tn a subnormal condition the proper thing to do is to begin Immediately to build up your powers of resistance. To accomplish this, nothing on earth will strengthen you and build you up like Tanlac, the powerful recon structive tonic, which contains the very elements needed by the system to give you fighting strength ana ward off the influenza germ.

 Look out for quacks selling medi- cine for hogs, sheep and other live stock. In the first place his medi- cine is frequently without value and cannot be relied upon. Many Arkan- sas farmers have spent their hard earned money for such remedies when they could have avoided this by getting in touch with Dr. R. M.

10000 Farmers Without Cow

10000 Farmers Without Cow
 Twenty thousand Arkansas farmers are without a good dairy COW. The advantages are so great and the cost is so small that every farmer, whether renter or landlord, must hays a COW. Fine dairy COWS frequently yield 600 gallons pure milk per year which will give family of five or six a gallon of whole milk or three glasses each daily, one half pound of butter daily, three fourths of pound of cottage cheese daily and three quarts of buttermilk or whey for making chicken and pig feed. Milk in the family diet will take the place of meat, which can be sold for cash, and the family will be made more vigorous and healthy and happy. Write to J. H. Woodley, agriculturist for the extension division of the Uni versity of Arkansas, and ask the gov ernment committee which is soon go ing to Washington to buy you dairy COW.
 This is a chance to get good men who are not allowed to take any profits to buy a good COW for you. It is their duty to help you.

WON'T LISTEN TO "BOsH"

How ineffective are the adroit eff
forts of League enemies to break into
League solidarity is well illustrated
in a letter the Leader has just receiv-
ed from a North Dakota woman, Mrs.
C. G. Wilder of Esmond, who gives
some good hits in her rebuff of one
of the enemy. Mr.. and Mrs. Wilder
have for months been receiving "sam-
pie copies" of the Minnewaukan paper
called "North Dakota Siftings' an
enemy of the farmers from the day
they began to organize. Writing to
the editor she says:
'eWe have been receiving sample
copies of your paper as regular as
though we were subscribing for it
and we infer that you are hard up for
subscribers. But you are wasting
your papers on US, as we subscribe
only to papers which tell the truth
and which are real friends of the.
farmers, such as the Nonpartisan
Leader, for instance"
Mr.. Wilder was one of the first
League members in the first League
state and as such has supported its
candidates and is now supporting the
administration Of Governor Frazier
Attorney General LANCER has been
viciously attacked by the liquor inter-
ests, the grain ring, the insurance
companies and the public utility prof

for state ownership or government
ownership, and to these attacks, re-
flected in the Minnewaukan ssscreen-.
ings," Mrs. Wilder says:
"Any man that sides against Mr..
LANCER has to side with the boozerssss
and red-light people, for these are
some of the things Mr.. LANCER is.

these concerns is neither a patriotic.
nor a respectable man.
