ages, IL Of Which Are Full
Size 25-cent Jars.

Fifteen years ago, in a little North
Carolina town, a druggist discovered a
process of combining the oldfashion-
ed emedies-Camphor, Turpentine
and Menthol-with certain volatile oils
such as Eucalyptus, Thyme, Cubebs
and Juniper, so that, when applied
externally, the body heat would
vaporize these ingredients. These
vapors, inhaled all night long, carry
the medication, with each breath, di-
rect to the air passages and lungs.
Today this vapor treatment, Wick
Vapo Rub, is almost universally used
throughout the South in preference to
internal dosing" It is quick in its
action, and what is more important,
particularly to mothers with small
children, it is applied externally and
hence does not disturb the most deli
cate stomach. Colds are easiest treat
ed at the beginning and VapoRub
makes the ideal preventive for the
entire family.
This preparation comes in salve
form and it's action is twofold. EX-
ternal1y, it is absorbed thru and
stimulates the skin, taking out that
tightness and soreness in the chest.
Internally, the vapors inhaled loosen

FARMERS CONGRESS cLo89o
MEETING At FORT COLLINS.
Resolutions Urge Branch Of Connie
sary for Colorado and state Con
troll Of Coal Lands.

| Western Newspaper Union News Service.
! Fort Collins, Colo.-The Farmers
and Farm Women's Congress finished
its session here, and adopted resolu-
tons calling upon the government to
establish in Colorado a branch Of the
purchasing bureau of the commissary
department. SO that farmers OF the
state may dispose of the increased
crops grown at government request.
The resolution stated that the farm
production Of 1917 was IS per cent
greater than in 1916. and that this was
directly due to the request for greater
crops to help in winning the war.
The resolutions also demand state
control OF the coal lands within Colo
RADIO, both to increase the production
here to an equality with the demand
and that the state may save money
by mining its own fuel.
Farmers are asked to make efforts
to further increase crops and to hold
their lands for the soldiers until they
return from war
An appeal is made for the residents
OF Colorado to consume more home
grown products and to use those that
will not be required for the soldiers.
The congress also called attention
to the scarcity of farm employees in
the service of the state The resolu-
ton states that there are 700 persons
employed at the capitol, of whom 10
come from Colorado Springs and Pu-
eblo, and all the others from Denver
1t urges that the proper proportion of
places be given farmers, who pay one
third Of the taxes to support the state
government
The following were elected officers
of the congress: President, NJ C.

ident. George McCarroll of Denver;

FITZGERALD AND HARDWIcK

When Fitzgerald people decided to
have grand patriotic celebration on
the Fourth of July, invite the people
of five or six counties, have the can
didates for the United States senate
on hand, either for a joint debate or
separate speeches, they decided that
one candidate was not needed-Hard-
wick. Therefore. they purposely left
his name off the list of those invited.
Inasmuch as the event is to be de-
cidedly patriotic "a rally of the loyal
people of that section, inviting a man
with record like Hardwick's would
be like asking a whisky distiller to
make speech at a w. c. T. U. pic
mic. There would be a lack of har-
mony, lack of congeniality, lack
OF sympathy between the speaker and
the audience that would make the oc-
casion failure. A man-whether he
be candidate, officeholder or plain pri-
waite citizen-who has been disloyal to
his government in a time of war, as
Hardwick, has no place at a meeting
where the genuine brand of patriot
ism is to be a feature, where loyal
sacrificing, willing patriots gather to
celebrate the natal day of their coun-
try.-Dublin Courier.
