Courage is a matter Of the blood.
Without good red blood a nan has a

blood is thin and watery, face pale or
pimply, generally weak, tired and list

cleaning, an old-fashioned herbal rem
edy that was used by everybody nearly
80 years ago is still safe and sans be-
cause it contains no alcohol or narcot-
lie. 1t is made up of Blood root, Gold

Kidney disease carries away q large

be done? The answer is easy. Eat less

of vegetables, drink plenty of water

Anuric double %strength), obtainable at
almost any drug store. II was first

New Drive Is In Sight
For Higher Wheat Price

Washington, Sept. 26.-Adoption Of
the Anderson and Norris resolution
almost simultaneously by the House
and Senate means that another drive
soon will be made on the White
House to induce President Wilson to
increase the guaranteed wheat price
to 1926 a bushel for the 1919. crop.
Senator Norris resolution calls for
all the facts the Department of Agri-
culture has in its possession on the
cost Of grain and live stock produce
ton. Its purpose Is to get at the de-
partment's figures on wheat raising.
Representative Anderson of Mime
sofa succeeded in getting the House
to ask Secretary of Agriculture
the wheat price advisory committee,
as we'll as his w report to President
Wilson.
Much Wheat is sown.
Although reports from the winter
wheat section indicate large acreages
are being sown again this fall, there
is much agitation for an increased
price. t4
Part Of the agitation is prompted
which have been informed that in
vestigations by the Department of
Agriculture show the cost Of raising
wheat has gone up in the past year.
DIR. William j. Spillman, for many
years chief OF the Office of Farm
Management Of tho department, and
N. II. Thompson, acting chief, recent
ly appeared before the Senate agri-
culturalscommittee and divulged these
figures. The hearings have not been
published Inc for this reason the in
formation has not been available to
the public.
A statement sem to President Will
son within the past few days says
that DR.. Spillman told the Senate
committee "the average cost Of pro-
duction of wheat per bushel for the
year 1918 crop, based on careful
Investigation by the Department OF
Agriculture, was in the western plains
'ssIseesa1bushel, in North Dakota s1.sl,
central states 1925, in south central
states $3.50 And in central, Atlantic
territory $2.25.
"Dr. Spillman has shown that on
100 wheat farms in the Western plain.
Central plains and North Central
states the cost of production of 80 IL
per cent of the crop was 10 per cent
above the, average and the average
cost of production was 50 a bushel.'
n. Average Cost $2.O8.
According to the. statement sent to
mated the cost of production of the
1919 wheat crop at s1.95 in the Great
Plains states and s3.52 in the North
Central states; for the South Central
states he estimated the cost at $2.97
and the Middle Atlantic $2.67. For
the Pacific Northwest his estimate is
$1.43, but much Of the wheat raised
in that area is a soft wheat Of an ex-
~ceptionally high. yield per acre. used
not for human food, but for feeding
cattle.
