FEEDER ]|!]F ROAD FUNDS FL
AMENDMENT TO CONSTITUTION
Is NEEDED TO OBTAIN AID,
SAYS BABCOCK.

Minneapolis Tribune 10y: Unless tho
the next general election, Minnesota
will lose millions Of dollars Of federal
road aid funds, according to G. NJ. Bah
cock, state highway commissioner, who
is working to save the federal aid APP
preparations for the state. -
Mr. Babcock said last night that the
trouble arises because this state is pro-
hibited by it's constitution from making
any direct tax or appropriation for
roads. This makes it impossible for the
state to meet the requirements. Of the
government, he explained. The govern
ment requires that the state appropri-
alton shall equal the amount of the fed.
eral appropriation.
AS Minnesota is unable to meet this
requirement, Mr.. Babcock conceived the
plan Of having the various counties
match the federal aid allotment. This
plan would have met the difficulty had
it not been for a contemplated change
in federal government policy under
which federal aid is to be extended
only where state funds are provided for
inter-county roads. Should the coun-
ties, as units, attempt to meet the fed
eral appropriation, it would be neces.
sary for them to issue bonds. Mr.. Bah
cock pointed out. This would be i'm.
possible, he explained, because the
counties have already bonded almost
to their limit and will therefore, be IN
able to match the federal appropria'
ton.
"This condition. MI. Babcock add
ed, "makes it necessary for the state
to amend its constitution so that the
state itself may make an appropriation
equal to that offered by the federal
government. Unless this is done Min

FAITHFUL HORSES
DID THEIR PART
ALLIES HAD MILLION AND A
HALF IN FRANCE, AND u. S.
10000 ANIMALS.

After the battle of Verdun, in
which the French held their lines
against the desperate and protracted
onslaughts of the German crown
prince with troops and munitions
rushed forward almost wholly. by au-
tomobile transport, the great strug-
gle in Europe became known as a
gasoline war. The term stuck. The
wonders of modern armys transport,
the quickness with which large bodies
of men and huge quantities of sup
plies are moved have become COM
monplace. The automobile does it.
So it is recorded, and so it has been
accepted. The horse hasn't figured
much in the calculations.
Where Gasoline Can't Go.
The automobile may have won at
Verdun, declare the officers of the re-
mount division of the American ex-
peditionary forces, but the horse has
won more victories than he has hairs
on his top-knot-for, say they, no
victory could have been attained, no
push could have succeeded, unless the
horse was on the job to pull the guns
forward, to take up the rations, the
water, the ammunition through mud
where trucks could not 90, or over
shell-swept ground equally impassa-
bic for the gasoline-propelled vehicle.
There are 100000 horses and
mules doing their bit for the allied
cause in France now. Approximately
half of them are in the artillery serv-
ice. Virtually all of the field artil-
lery of all the allied armies below the
siX-inch gun is horse-drawn. The re-
mainder of the horses are working at
a multitude of duties, most Of which
took them under fire at the front.
1t is the horse which took the ra-
ton cart forward over the shell-swept,
shell-pitted roads to the men in the
line. 1t is the horse which likewise
carried forward the water. 1t was the /.
horse, too, which transported most of /
the small arms ammunition and some .
of the artillery shells, and it was the .
horse who did this when conditions .
were the hardest and the weather the .
worst.
10000 Horses in U. S. Army.
The American army now has 169,-
600 horses and mules on active duty.
This is what is left, fit for service
at present, of a total of 10000 .
horses and mules put into service by
the army. The rest were killed,
wounded or became sick, and are be-
ing treated in hospitals.
Owing to the scarcity of ocean
transport facilities, the value of an
army horse in Europe is almost in
calculable. His cash value is several
times what it is in the United States.
For that reason extraordinary means
are employed for conserving the
present supply.

SPANISH INFLUENZA OR GRIP
nv nR. LEE r.. SMITH

An old enemy is with US again, and
whether we fight a German or a germ,
we must put up good fight, and not be
afraid. The influenza runs very brief
course when the patient is careful, and
if we keep the system in good condition
and throw off the poisons which tend to
accumulate within our bodies, we can
escape the disease. Remember these
three C's-a clean mouth, clean skin,
and clean bowels. To carry off poisons
from the system and keep the bowels
loose, daily doses of a pleasant laxative
should be taken. Such a one is made
of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root Of
ialap, and called Dr.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used
freely if attacked by cold, and the
patient should be put to bed after hot
mustard foot-bath.
To prevent the attack of bronchitis or
pneumonia and to control the pain,
Anuric tablets should be obtained at the
drug store, and one given every two
hours, with lemonade. The Anuric tab

cleanse the kidneys, they carry away
much of the poisons and the uric acid.
1t is important that broths, milk, but

be given regularly to strengthen the sys-
tenn and increase the vital resistance.
The fever is diminished by the use of the
Anuric tablets, but in addition, the fore
