AFTER SIX YEARS
This Testimony Remains mistaken

Time is the best test of truth.
Here is an Alexandria story that
has stood the test of time. 1t is a
story with a point which will come
straight home to many of us.
c. E. Farrar, PA Main ST.. NJ,
Alexandria, Mimi, says: Colds al
ways settled on my kidneys, causing
me much pain and annoyance. MY
back ached; I felt tired and unfit for
work and my whole body was stln
and painful The kidney secretions
were unnatural and contained sed1-
ment. Doan's Kidney Pills cured
the attack
SIX YEARS LATER, Mr.. Farrar
said: 'I cheerful1y confirm my
former endorsement. I use Doan's
Kidney Pills occasionally for back
ache or other kidney troubles and
they always act as represented.

States Revenues Increased


Interest received upon state funds
in the hands of Henry Rines, state
treasurer, for the year ending May
1, 1918, amounts to $170,721.95, an
increase Of $60,259.78 over the pre-
vious year. Some of this increase is
due to an increase in funds, but the
greater portion is due to larger de-
posits having been kept in the in
active banks which pay three per
cent interest as against two per cent
in the active or checking account
banks.
1t is the policy of Mr.. Rines to
keep as much of the states funds
as possible in the inactive accounts,
which has resulted in large in
crease in the states interest account.
Included in the interest collections
for the past year is $3,567.94 re-
ceived as interest from daily deposits
of departmental funds. Previous to
May 1, 1917, these funds were de-
posted monthly and the state re-
ceived no interest for collections
made during the month. The law
directing daily payments of these
collections was passed by the 1917
legislature at the suggestion of State
Treasurer Henry Rines.
Since assuming Office he has insti-
tuted number of reforms in the
treasury department in the interest
of economy and greater efficiency.
Mr. Rines is serving his first term
and is candidate for reelection.

CORN VS.. PORK
BY HAMLlN GARLAND
of the viQiIantes,

| If the war goes on Gas 1t seems likely
to do) we may come to Doctor Kel-
logg's way of thinking and cut out
the raising Of pigs altogether. He es-
Inmates that 1t takes nearly ten pounds
Of corn to make pound of pork, and
that when we get the pork we are
worse Off than If we had none. This,
l suspect, is true, for /, under orders
of my doctor, have had no pork Of any
kind for three years.
Kellogg Is an extreme vegetarian, Of
course, and his statements must be
read In the light Of that fact. And
yet he has logic on his side. Why
continue to feed the most vital food
Of the human race to droves of ami
mails whose flesh is admitted to be I'M
wholesome to many people and without
which all of us would be better Off?
Another curious reflection comes In
when discussing the raising of any
kind of flesh food. How much Of the
corn or oats goes to supply energy for
exercise on the part Of the animal?
Every time pig or steer takes a
trot or gallop around the yard a
considerable amount Of food Is used
up in muscular action. This sounds
like a joke, but 1t isn't, 1t is q seri-
Gus observation on the part of vegeta-
rians.
cheney, have taken these matters In
hand. They have decreased the num-
Der of pigs not only to save food, but
to preserve certain balance in the
ration. We may yet come to Kellogg's
point of view and begin the re-
| duction Of pork raising to save corn.
retaining only enough pigs to act as
scavengers of the kitchen refuse.
This much we can do, we can feed
our hogs with care. / wonder how
many Western farmers still feed their
pigs as they used to do by throwing
the corn into the pen? At that time,
with corn at Is cents bushel, it didn't
matter how much was trampled into the
mlre, but now the case is different. We
are careful to clean our own plates,
and yet am not sure that the farmers
are making their cattle feed go as far
as it might by careful rationing. AMI
mails used to be overfed on our farms.
Are they being scientifically fed now?
Corn and wheat can win this war,
and when the final choice Is made pigs
must go, cotton and wool be reduced
In amount, ana cattle be raised without
exercise and in the most economical
way.
AS l write these things / am sud-
denly taken anew with the wonder Of
the changes that have come to this
America of ours. That we Of all ma
tons Of the world should be seriously
considering how to conserve our food
supply, makes clearer than any other
measure the appalling blight which the
war, with its destructive agencies, has
thrown over the entire earth. 1t is in
credible but 1t is true. 1t is not only
true, but is becoming each day more
vital in our thinking. How shall we
feed the allies, ourselves and the waves
of the North sea?
We must double production, we must
save, and we must use with scientific
precision.

these scientific savages.
God grant that your dear boy may
come home to you safe and sound, but
If he should be hurt give m chance

condition to work for his future, and
for the future Of those who love him.
And so you will do most for him,
most for yourself, and most for the
country he gave SO much to save.
