RESULTS THAT REMAIN
Are Appreciated by Alma People

Thousands who suffer from back
ache and kidney complaint have tried
one remedy after another, finding
only temporary benefit. This is dis
couraging, but there is one kidney
medicine that has earned a reputation
for lasting results and there is plenty
of proof of its merit right here in
Alma.
Here is the testimony of an Alma
man who used Doan's Kidney Pills
years ago, and now makes his testi-
mony even stronger.
Ezra Robinson, 1l3 Grant Ave,
says: 81 have the greatest conf

PRESIDENT WILSON
PRAISES FARMERS
Nations Chief Executive Says Amer
lean Agriculturalists Can and viii
do Much to Win the War.

President Wilson in his message to
the farmers of the United States, of
January 81, voices q strong faith in
their loyalty and makes a strong call
for their cooperation in winning the
war.
1t has been the fashion of many
writer's to compare the production per
acre OF European farmers with that
OF American farmers to the detri-
ment of the American. The Presi-
dent however, makes the assertion
that the farmers of this country are
as efficient as any other farmers in
the world, and that while they do not
produce more per acre, it is not only
not necessary that they should do
SO, but perhaps it would be bad econ
omy for them to attempt il. The real
test is that they do produce by two
or three times more per man per unit
of labor and capital than the farmers
OF any European country; they are
more alert and use more labor-saving
devices than any other farmers in the
world.
The response Of the farmers, says
Mr. Wilson, to the demands of the
present emergency has been in every
way remarkable, and he quotes figures
in proof of the assertion. These
achievements, he urges, should be re-
peated and even exceeded.
The President denies that the Gov
eminent has sought to fix the price of
foodstuffs and not sought to fix other
prices which determine the expenses
of the farmer, stating that the Gov
eminent has successfully regulated the
prices of many materials underlying
all the interests of the country, and
such regulation was not only for the
purchases of the Government but for
the purchases Of the public, and in
fixing the prices Of foodstuffs the Gov
eminent has sincerely tried to keep
the interests of the farmer as much
in mind as the interests of others.
Recalling the historic action of the
farmers at Lexington, when they fred
the shot that was heard around the
world President Wilson says that the
toll, the intelligence, the energy, the
foresight, the sacrifices, and devotion
of the farmers of America will bring
to triumphant conclusion this great
last war for the emancipation of men
from the control of arbitrary govern
ment and the selfshness of class legis-
lation.

LIVES LIFE OF A uERMIT
Petition Says His Wealth Is Estimated
at Many Thousand Dollars And That
He Is Incompetent to Care for Him
self and Urges Guardianship.

James Fl. Karnes, Agent of the Ken
osha County Humane Society filed a
petition in the County Court this morn
ing asking that Judge Taylor appoint
a guardian for Henry T. Smith, 60
years of age and one Of the oldest and
weathiest of the pioneer residents of
the town of Salem.
Smith it is declared in the petition
is living the life Of hermit on his
farm near Benham s corners. It is
declared that he has improper care and
that his farm IS being neglected and
that it is feared that he may be over
come with sickness or even death with
out any one knowing about his con-
dition.
The petition recites the fact that
Smith has neither wife or child or de-
cendant Of child to care for him, that
he has neither, sister or brother and
that SO far ass can be discovered he
has no kin within the state Of Wis
consin.
It recites the fact that consider
able money and many valuable papers
are secreted in the old house in Salem
and that Smith is not able to take pro-
per care of them; that he is unable to
give the proper care to his person and
his clothing and that there is grave
danger that his valuable property
might be destroyed as a result of the
ravages of fire or the intrusion of
thieves.
Smith is a nephew of the late Nancy
Burritt former resident of Kenosha and
at the time of her death he was named
IN the will and given a. bequest of ten
thousand dollars. In addition to this
be had property valued variously at
from twenty to thirty thousand dol
lars.
complained to the Humane Agent that
She case was one which demanded his
attention. He went to the Smith home
and made provisions to have the old
man attended to and his property
guarded until such a time as the
County court could act on the petition
for guardianship.
In the petition it is suggested that
Herbert E.. Robbins of the town of
Salem be named as guardian.
Smith himself has expressed will
1inoness TO have some one look after
his affairs.

CHICAGO MILK DISTRIBUTORS
ACCEPT COMPROMISE PRICE.

Kenosha dairymen were notified to-
day that Chicago lsilk distributors
have accepted the compromise price for
March milk agreed upon by the milk
producers with the food administra-
ton. AS result the 1910 per 100
pound price to the producers and the
retention of the 12-cent- quart price
to milk consumers becomes effective
at once. Because Of this agreement
the indictments against the milk pro-
ducers undoubtedly will be dropped.
This conclusion is based upon the fact
that the Milk Producers Association
has made presentations to Washing
ton that in establishing price for
milk it was attempting in good faith
to obey the order of the food admins
traitor to act in a collective capacity
to keep production at It's highest
point of efficiency.

LYMAN H. HOWE's TRAVEL FEs-

Education, Interest, Sight Seeing,
Thrills and Journeys in
Howe's New Films

is an American institution. for LYMAN
Il. Howe s Travel Festival fills a place
IN the esteem of the American public
that it has earned for itself by the
high character and educational adj
yantages Of its programs
This season IS presentation reveals in
spectacular fashion the almost incredi-
bic feats of gigantic caterpillar war
tractors III the service of Uncle Sam S
army. These caterpillars are being
used on the different battle fronts to
climb steep hills, uproot trees, ford
streams and combat mud.
Then we see the wonders of Alaska,
with the huge icebergs and glaciers,
together with the beautiful streams
and some of the industries of that
country. This series contains some
very remarkable views Of immense
falling icebergs and also shows large
numbers o. leaping salmon which brave
waterfalls and swim against heavy
currents to get to inner waters where
they spawn and die.
Thrills aplenty are furnished by q
fearless man and equally dauntless
woman who go into the wilds of the
great northwest to seek the mountain
lion. How they find and capture it,
with only rope and a few trained
dogs to aid them, is more than words
can tell, for to appreciate this exciting
undertaking one must see the film.
A trip through China, with all the
forbidden scenes of yesterday and to-
day, is most interesting and educa-
tional part of the program. Five
years were spent in the filming of this
subject, with the result that every
conceivable feature of life in the

We are not so much interested in
the attitude that men in public life
took before the United States entered
the war as in the whole hearted sup
port that they have given the admin
istration since war was declared. Be-
fore the war men had a right to their
own opinions as to just what was the
best position for America to take. At
ter we entered the war there was no
chance for divided sentiment or di-
vided loyalty.

We agree with the members Of the
council that if $4,000 is to be raised
for school buildings the people should
vote ON it and know just what they
are voting on. Camoufaging the peo-

tax levies is not good practice. The
people will look at fair proposition
in an intelligent manner and render
an intelligent verdict.

Loyalty is not limited to the Demo-
cratic party either. There is no rea-
son that Wisconsin should elect a De-
mocrat to succeed Senator Husting
just because Husting was Democrat.
1t may be however that history will
repeat itself and the state will o.ect a
Democrat just to be able to show de-
feat to "dog in the manger' methods
of certain Republican politicians.
