the size has not yet been determin

The hole is in splendid condition
and it is the idea of the owners to

and in the event no pay is struck
at deeper level they will plug back
to the 230O foot sand and shoot it,
1t was estimated at about 20 bar

The Caddo company, which is the

Scouts and operators point that
every completion serves just that

LESS MEAT If BACK
AND KIlNEY Us HURT
Take a Glass Of Salts to Flush
Kidneys If Bladder Bothers
YOu--Drink Lots of Water

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says well known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys, they become overworked; /;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu.
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irri-
tation.
The moment your back hurts or kid.
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take q tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal ae-
tivity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine so it no longer irritates, thus
ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot iniure anyone;
makes delightful efferveseent hthia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then to keep the
kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus
avoiding serious kidney disease.

IRRIGATION roR 1918

For the purpose of trying to mako
the irrigation service more satisfac-
tory the city will be divided into two
districts so that each district will get
the full service of the plant upon the
day it irrigates.
The plan is to have the houses which
bear even numbers on the streets irri-
gate only on Monday, Wednesday, Fri
day and Sunday, and the houses which
bear odd numbers on the streets irri-
gate only on Tuesday, Thursday, Sat-
urday and Sunday. Tins plan will per
NIT every house to irrigate four days
out Of each week.
The purpose of the Water company
in furnishing water for irrigation is
not to furnish all the water person
can run through the hose in the SIX
irrigation hours every day, but to furn
ish enough water to keep the lawn in
lcondition. To use mose than enough is
la waste. We will pump the usual
amount Of water and hope to furnish

Secretary Lansing Tells
Of German CroOkedness

Schnectady, N. Y, June liter
many's crookedness was held up to
scorn by Secretary Of State Lansing in
a speech yesterday to union college
students.
"It is fact not generally known, "
he said, "that within six weeks after

this government its solemn promise
that it would cease ruthless slaughter

promise, asked the Berlin foreign Of

the submarine murder campaign was

merchant ships in American ports to
destroy their machinery in preparation
for war.
"We admit we have been the dupes
of the military clique in Berlin because
dishonesty of this sort seemed to us
Iinconceivable in these days of inter
national honor and christian civiliza-
tion.
"We have learned our lesson and it
has cost us dear. But we will never

spirit rise above them"
Lansing's speech reiterated that
there can be no compromise between
the United States, the allies and Prus-
sianism as it exists today. The war
must be fought through to a finish, he
declared, and Prussianism must be
beaten. He cited many other examples
of German dishonesty to show it would

Seattle, Wash, June 11.-Coming to
Seattle to finish its convention after
having been driven out of Walla Wal
Ia, the Washington State Grange wired
President Wilson asking for full inves-
iigation Of the Walla Walla meeting.
The attention of the president is directed
to the fact that the first act Of the
convention was to pass strong resolu.
tions pledging earnest, united support
to the government. The telegram fur
ther states that the only act Of dis
loyalty in connection with the meeting
was when the school directors refused to
allow the grange to take up collection
for the Red Cross in the school hall in
which the meeting was held.
The grange had to leave Walla Wal.
la last week when it was refused furth-
er admission to the school hall after it
had gone on record as favoring the Nom

ALKALI IN SOAP
BAD FOR THE HAIR

X X X X x X X X X X X X X \
Soap should be used very carefully,
il you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared ham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries tho scalp makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), and is
better than the most expensive soap or
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
It in. It makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rlnses out easily,
removing every particle Of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
bsr of the family for months.
