TO AILING WOMEN
A Little Sound Advice Will Help Many
a Sufferer in Glenwood Springs

No woman should consider herself
healthy and well if the kidneys are
weak. Poisons that pass off in the Sc
cretions when the kidneys are well, arc
retained in the body when the kidneys
are disordered. If the kidneys and
bladder become inflamed and swollen
worse troubles may quickly follow. This
is often the cause of bearing down
pains, lameness, back ache, cts. Uric
poisoning is also frequent cause Of
headaches, dizzy spells, languor ner-
vousness and rheumatic pains.
When suffering so, try Doan s Kid

SEVEN LOAVES OF BREAD
FOR EVERY PERSON IN
U. S. SAVED FROM WASTE
Farmers and Threshermen Patriot.
caliy Respond to Call Of Food
Administration.

From Information received by the
U. S. Food Administration from the
principal grain growing states, 1t is
now possible to announce with fair ac-
curacy the amount Of wheat saved last
harvest by improved methods of han
ding. According to official cacula-
tions, efforts toward cleaner threshing
saved fully 100000 bushels of wheat
with corresponding savings of other
small grain harvested and threshed in
a similar manner. In addition. other
states, though unable to furnish fig
ures reported greatly reduced harvest
losses.
The figure for wheat alone is equiv
alent to seven one-pound loaves Of
bread for every person in the United
States and represents food that form
erly was either an absolute loss or
was recovered to only slight extent
by poultry and livestock. While op-
portunities In this branch Of conserva-
ton were large, the quantity Of grain
recovered surpasses early expecta-
tions. 1t Ii noteworthy also that re-
suits were secured principally through
voluntary cooperation.
No conservation measure OF the
Food Administration, 1t Is declared,
has received more wholehearted sup
port than that pledged and rendered

HOG CHOLERA APPEARS
IN MoNTRosE COUNTY

Hog cholera has broken out in Mont
rose county. The agricultural college
received a call for assistance on No
vember 81 and DR.. g. A. Wright, vet
erinary extension specialist, was imme-
diately dispatched to the scene of the
outbreak. The call came from Mont
rose and was to the effect that twenty
farms were infected. This should be
warning to hog growers in other parts
of the state, to take all precautionary
measures possible to protect their hogs
from this disease.

MEAT INCREASE
AT TIME NEEDED
Producers Responded Nobly
When Deman1 Was Shown
to Them.
CATTLE AND HOG FIGURES.
Government Justified in Pork Policy
Which Nov. Provides Grief Sup-
ply to Meet Three Billion
Pound Fat Shortage.

In line with the general plan Of con-
servation formulated by the U. S. Food
Administration Immediately following
the entrance of the United States into
the war the contribution made by the
meat producers of this country to the
war program is of particular signifi-
canoe, as 1t demonstrates the hearty
cooperation accorded the Food Ad-
ministration by the IN ,at producers of
the country
According to reports of the q. 8.
Department of Agriculture, there was
an increase in cattle of lG,23S, 900 head
and 10, AL 900 hogs. these figures COM
piled to January 1 last. In the same
period there was decrease of $4,000
head of sheep, but indications are this
decrease will show an increase follow
ing the latest reports.
Since January l unofficial informa-
ton indicates an increase in hogs OF
not less than eight per cent. and not
more than fifteen per cent. compared
with one year ago, with an increase in
average weight.
Administration for increase in hog
production for the fall of 1918 and the
spring of 1919 the increase may yield
not less than 1,6O0, 100000 pounds
more of pork products than We're
available last year. Without this In
crease the shipping program arranged
by Mrs Hoover regarding animal food
products would have been impossible.
The dressed hog products during The
three months ending September 30.
1917 amounted to 9O3, ,l72,C00 pounds,
while for the same months of 1918 the
production was 1,277 $4,000 pounds,
an increase of over 374 100000 pounds
for the quarter.
During the same period in 1917 in
spected slaughter records of dressed
beef showed 1908, 100000 pounds as
against 1,454 100000 pounds for the
three month period ending September
1, this year.
We must increase our meat ship
ments, especially our pork products,
to meet the added demands of the mil
lions liberated from German oppres-
sion. And at the same time we must
look forward to the rehabilitation of
the European meat herds. The policy
which guided our meat program in the
past year has been fully justified, for
only the heavy pork production which
1t has brought about will enable US
even partly to satisfy the increased
demands on US for the coming year.
There will be world shortage in fats.
and 1t is to the United States that Eu-
rope must look to supply its deficien-
cy. At the same time there will con-
tinue to be heavy demands for beef.
Owing to the limited refrigerator ship
ping capacity European imports OF
beef for some time will be limited.
The United States, Australia and
Argentine will be able to maintain
supply that will keep all available
freezer vessels operating at capacity.

IT the response should he that the
imperial German chancellor accepts

subsequent addresses. then it must
necessarily follow that the dynasty

armies are on conquered territory.
like that part of the note especially
which suggests that they should get
out before talking of an armistice In
making the inquiry as to whom Prince
Max represents. the president is mere
whom he is dealing, and it is a very
pertinent inquiry. The president
wants the German government to
come out in the open and be entirely
frank before he goes any further in
dealing with them"
Senator Fletcher of Florida:

the line of the reply TO Austria Hun

IAN out sympathy for the chan

ing that his peace offer is based and
drawn UP just as little on political
foundation as all former offers. Chan
cellor Macmillan evidently still re-
CARDS Alsace-Lorraine as an internal

declare in Germanys name that she
is ready for direct discussion with
France on this point"
Referring to Russia's formal re-
quest for the revision of the Brest-
Iitovsky treaty, the writer adds:
at is now. therefore. know that at
the international peace conference
Russia will put forward her claims to
the border lands. How, in these cir
