 Rheuma passes the deadly poisonous secretions into the bowels and kidneys from which they are quickly thrown off in a natural, healthy way

OUR FARMERS ARE PATRIOTIC

William Phar of the Gilbert sec
ton is probably fair sample of the
average farmer of this part of the
United States. Speaking Of the war
and the need of food conservation
Mr.. Phar expressed what is perhaps
the sentiment of our farmers gener-
ally when he said: 1.-The boys in
the trenches must have all the food
and clothing they need; If there Is
any going short it's up to us here
at home for whom these boys are
fighting to do the going hungry.
If they need all the white -four I
am going to eat something else, no
matter If 1t cost more" A group
at the depot Wednesday morning
were discussing the war and max
ing some criticism of the apparent
injustice of many articles. MI.
Phar hits the nail by declaring he
is going to keep right on doing his
level best, even if it does take the
Food Administration some time to
correct abuses. and stop profiteer-
ing. He does not like the way the
wheat situation has been handled,
nor approve of the manner in which
the sack deal is apparently bungled
to the detriment of the grain grow
ers, but he will not sit down and
complain while we have boys in the
trenches to feed. And this is what
the Clearwater Republican calls true
and unadulterated patriotism.
