Tribute of Eminent Chemist on c. 5.

The claims of c. s. Gross Specifc) of being the greatest blood, kidney, pellagra and rheumatism medicine has been amply proven by the testimonials of thousands of people who have been relieved of Pellagra, Rheumatism and other ailments. But it remained for the morning mail to bring to Dr. Gross the greatest testimonial to his medicine that has ever come to any proprietary medicine made in the country.
 It comes in the shape of an unsolic- ited and unexpected letter and certii- cate from the eminent chemist, Dr. w. H. Morse, of Hartford, Conn. Hun dreds of physicians and doctors and thousands of cured people in this coun- try have given their endorsement to the splendid curative powers of c. g., but the letter and certificate from Dr. Morse, coming as they do without any sort of solicitation, brings the positive proof that this medicine is all that has ever been claimed for it.

PRAISED BY BAKER
d. r. Anthony of Kansas Thanked for
Military Committee Work.

Washington, D. c., Juno 1.-THE
work this year of preparing and put
ting through the house the military
appropriation bill, carrying as it did
the enormous total of twelve billions
OF dollars, was task so tremendous
that it has involved practically five
months of continuous labor on the
part of the members of the military
committee of the house of representa-
tives which had the analysis and final
presentation of this enormous appro-
priation bill in their charge.
Congressman D. r. Anthony, Jr, of
Kansas, is now the second ranking
Republican member of the military
affairs committee of the house, and
did a great deal of hard work in the
preparation and passage of the bill
After the measure went thru the
house last week, Mr.. Anthony was in
receipt of the following letter from
Secretary of War Newton D. Baker:
Washington, D. c., June 1, 1918.
Ny Dear Mr.. Anthony:
am deeply grateful for your part in
the debate ON the army bill, which 1 have
just finished reading. The country will
be helped by the facts which have been
produced in this discussion, and patriotic
people everywhere will be stirred by see
ing how party distinctions were lost in
the general desire to have a just presenta-
ton of the case to the congress and an
harmonious and helpful relationship es-
tablished between the congress and the de-
partment in carrying forward the heavy
burden which this war entails.
Cordially yours,
NEWTON ID. BAKER.

TO TAX PROFITS
Sen. SmOOt Would Change Ex-
cess Profits Tax.
War Industries to Bear Heav-
lest Sfa-e of Load.

Washington. June Preparation
for q congressional pursuit Of war
profits has begun.
While the house ways and means
committee postponed for one day its
scheduled hearings on the new war
tax bill, Senator Smoot and others
were preparing to contend vigorously
for a bill to change the present ex-
cess profits tax into a war profits tax.
Smoot has drawn a bill under
which,, he asserts. war profiteers will
pay the bulk of the taxes while gen.
eral business. not owing its prosperity
to the war. win not be heavily taxed.
The tax bill passed last October
taxes excess profits"-profits above
the normal returns Of pre-war years.
Shoots plan is to compute war
profits by deducting from the net in
come for the taxable year, the average
pre-war profit.
Upon the war profit Smoot would
levy taxes thus: 10 per cent on war
profits of 10 per cent; 12h per cent
on profits between 10 and 20 per cent:
is per cent between 20 and so and
then by per cent increases for each
10 per cent incsease in profits up to
so per cent on war profitA of 100 per
cent or more,

today centered in the production fore
cast of this years wheat crop. That
is an essential facto- IN the feeding of
the armies of the United States and
the allies, and the civilian populations.
With the American people using the
least amount of wheat possible and
sending to Europe every bit they can
spare, the size of this years crop will
determine the extent to which wheat
will be available for home use until
the 1919 harvest.
The government had hoped for a
billion bushels crop and while condi-
lions for winter wheat have not been
the best, a crop of that size may yet
be realized.
Ideal Weather Conditions.
Almost ideal weather conditions
have prevailed during much of the
spring growing season and it was felt
today's forecast would show an In
crease in the estimated production of
winter wheat which is growing on the
largest acreage ever planted to that
crop. A large increase in the acreage
of spring wheat, announced today for
the first time was looked for and the
condition of that crop was expected to
be excellent.
A forecast Of 572, $4,000 bushels of
winter wheat was made last month
from conditions existing May 1 when
the report showed the plant to be
S6.4 per cent Of a normal. Last year
on June 1 it was 100 and the crop
was AIS, 000,0 900 bushels while the ten
year average condition is sos and the
production average $50. 100000 bush
els. Spring wheat production last
year was 233,000.000 bushels and the
condition on June / was 916 while
the ten year average is 257,000,0O0
bushels and the condition 93.7. Last
years acreage was is, 511, 900 acres.
Dat production last year was 1887
100000 bushels and the condition on
June 1 was S8.s, while the ten-year
average is 1895, 100000 bushels and
the condition 1914. Last years ay-
erage was 1852, 900 acres Barley
production last year was 209,0OO,o00
bushels and the June 1 condition S9.3
while the ten-year average is 100000
900 bushels and the condition 9O4
Last years acreage was s,S35,000
