New Kind Of Calomel
Safe And Delightful

The new kind of calomel, known as
Calotabs, retains all of the good med
icinal virtues of the old style calo-
mel, yet is entirely purified from all
of the nauseating, disagreeable and
dangerous qualities. You can, there
fore, eat what you please and go
where you please, with no loss of
time from your work.
One Calotab at bedtime, with a
swallow of water-that's all. Next
morning you awake feeling fine, your
liver cleansed, your system purified
and with a hearty appetite for break
fast. Calotabs are sold only in orig
'inal, sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Your druggist recommends
them and will refund your money, IL
you are not delighted.

to government requirements, must be
increased to $4,000 acres for 1918. In
diana farmers are interested in pro-
ducing crops that are needed to meet
the demands of our boys at the front.
Surely no farmer can serve in more
direct way than by growing a few
acres of tomatoes and supply food
stuff that is needed and which will
serve so valuable a purpose. AS
State food director for Indiana I urge
Indiana farmers to give consideration
to these problems and that they exert
every possible effort to produce in
1918 the largest quantity of tomatoes
ever grown in the history of the
State. With the spirit of service and
an attempt to meet the program of
the government we can back the boys
in a way that will bring the war to
a speedy and successful conclusion"

TOMATOES FOR THE ARMY

many housewives in the county are
endeavoring to can enough tomatoes
for their own use
It seems that canned tomatoes are
considered the most satisfactory OF
canned vegetables for army use. On
that account the canned tomatoes
from the big canneries should be left
for the use of the army, and the home
folks use the product preserved in
the home kitchens and local can
neries.
According to bulletin OF the Unit

place in feeding the army, the gov

In Indiana, the bulletin reports, the
farmers are asked to bring the to-

Boy Scouts To Take The Field
Tomorrow In Behalf of
Third Liberty Loan

Atlanta, Ca, April 26.-Approxi-
mately $4,000 active canvassers in
behalf of the Third Liberty loan will
be given free rein throughout the ma
ton on Saturday morning, when the
Boy Scouts of America will take the
field to bring the fourth and last week
of the campaign to a close with a
whirlwind drive.
The youngsters have been doing
valiant service all along during the
past three weeks. They have hung
door knob bells, put up posters and
done hundred and one different
things to further the work of local
committees; but for the fourth week,
they are going out as statesmen, to
solicit every man, woman and child
who has not yet signed up.
To use the expression from head
quarters, they are to be the CLEAN
ers after the reapers" picking up ev-
cry wisp of straw that the advance
workers have allowed to fall.
Every boy in the national organi-
cation is in this selling proposition to
the last ditch. Members have been
offered a War Service Emblem for
those who sell bonds in ten or more
homes and there is not thing going
to stand in the way Of winning that
emblem, so far as the vast majority Of
boys are concerned. None of the work
which they may have done previous
tc April 9th will count in the win
ming of this coveted honor Every boy
will start from scratch on Saturday
morning, and the whole Boy Scout
membership will keep scratching un-
til the end of the campaign.
The Scout organizations in several
cities have tried to get good start
by beginning their canvass before the
day, but all this has been stopped by
Chief Scout Executive James E. West
who has instructed Scout officials not
to allow boys to receive pledges o.
subscriptions prior to April q.
+ The efforts Of the Scouts must b5
directed to selling private people ant
not corporations. No subscriptions re-
ceived from corporations, railroads
factories, banks or other large bust
ness organizations will count in thei1
record for the service emblem.

NO FOOD AND FUEL FAMINE
In CATO this WINTER

Gallo won't suffer from famine or
near famine this winter. 1t is a
groundless fear that has been express
sed by a number of citizens who were
misled into a mood of pessimism be.
cause of the incessant insistence upon
meat!ess days and the "don't waste"
campaign. We have enough food for
ourselves and our allies, but we must
not waste. We may eat more of GER
tain foods-which cannot be shipped
over the ocean-than of other foods
which can be exported. This commu-
nifty is merely doing her part in the
way of conservation. The key note
of the entire food campaign is that
we are to consume as little as pos
sible of food that will be better utili-
ED by shipment to our allies and our
troops. Such men as Carl Vrooman.
assistant secretary of the U. S.. De.
partment of Agriculture; Robert G.
Gould, editor and publisher of the
American Food Journal; Armour &
Co., packers; Herbert Quick, men,
ber of the Federal Farm Loan Board,

that America is NOT headed toward
food famine. The nervous ones
should take heart. We are safe only
we must not waste. Gallo News.

Alta, the land where milk and honey
flows. Where the Canadian govern

where the coal lies on the surface
merely to be hauled away, and best
of all where nature has supplied

Seeing all the opportunities of the
SUNNY land of Alberta, Mr.. Wirth

Park River Boys
Inventive Genius
Will Revolutionize the Power
of Engines by the Use of
Oxygen in Air.

If the motor invented by Henry
Lohse, son of John Lohse, proves to
be the success it now seems to prom
Use, it will revnlutionize the entire
gasoline engine, traction, automobile,
submarine and aviation business of
the world. Henry Lohse, who is a
graduate of the Park River high
school, has invented motor which it
is claimed, derives it's power from the
oxygen in the air, the exact pro-
cess being secret.
Young Lohse constructed a small
motor, which ran his mothers wash
ing machine. and kept running with
out interruption for some weeks. He
applied for and received patent
from the U. S. patent office. His
invention as soon as pantented,,
created intensive excitement among
the eastern manufacturers of motors,
and he Immediately received number
of flattering offers for his patent, but
he declined them all. His invention
will do away with the necessity of
earring fuel in an automobile or afro
plane which especially in airoplanes,
means a complete revolution, as in
aviation the matters of weight is the
greatest problem or factor inventors
must deal with.
A short time ago Mr.. Lohse received
an invitation from the United States
government to come to Washington, D.
c., and while there he demonstrated
his machine before Secretary Baker
and committee of experts. The
trial tests proved entirely satisfactory
to the government officials and the
war department has now undertaken
the construction of large model
which will develope about 80 horse
power to be used for further tests.
| When this is completed Mr.. 'Lohse
expects to make second trip to
Washington, from which place he
returned on Friday.
While at the capital city he spent
about two hours with Thomas A.
Edison, who complimented the young
man very highly on his ingenuity.
This invention will make Park River
famous.
