Would Extract Sugar
From SpineIesS Cactus

Santa Rosa, Cal, Feb. 27.--Luthcr
Burbank, plant wizard, went "over the
top" today with another suggestion for
helping to win the war.
With the shortage in sugar and the
proposed reduction of tile quantities
used in soft drink manufacture and can
dy making, Burbank proposed to extract
glucose, or fruit sugar, from the fruit
of the spineless cactus, which he has
brought to perfectioA.
"The cactus is going to surprise every
body some of these days" he said to-
day, "Like alfalfa, which languished
for so many years without appreciation,
it is due for great utilization
"No such thing as crop failure need
be feared in cactus. lC will produce
fifty tons. of fruit to the acre in tiny
climate. Drought does not hurt it, yet
water does not harm IL and frost neN cr
touches it. The cactus fruit is very iich
in sugar, especially that grown in the
hotter climates, Tut it is fruit sugar
and no known process will cStfacr the
sugar and crystalli"e it. The cactus
sugar is refined in the fora Of glucose,
which is the basis Of most candles ahd
used as a binder in practically all. There
is immense opportunity here for service
to the nation.
Burbank s statement on cactus glu-
cose was made as the result of publ
cation recently of the srory of 1eAas
man who made candy from leaves. A
Santa Rosa woman then announced that
she had done better and had preserved
and made glace fruit from cactus fruit
using practically no sugar im the process
Burbank says he. has now pcrfected d
the cactus TO such Il point4 that ii Is
not only srineiess put the spinos and
seeds have oeeh eliminated from tac
fruit

SALTS IF KIDNEYS
OR BLADDER BOTHER
Harmless 10 L'IJril Kidneys
and Nau;raiizc Irritating
Acid; Splendid for
System

Kidney and bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder
where it often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck Of the bladder, obligine
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is il
constant dread, the water passes some
times with a scalding sensation and is
very profuse; again, there is difficul'
ty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call 1T
because they can't control urination
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments to over
come. Get about four ounces of JAG
Salts from your pharmacist and take
a Tablespoonful in a glass of water be
fore breakfast, continue this for tive
or three days. This viii neutraliZe the
acids in the urine so it no longer is
a source of irritation to the bladder
and urinary organs which then act nor
mally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid Of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used by thousands Of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caus
ed by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes nc
bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant efferves
cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.
