Kansas City, Mo-, has what is believed
to be the only balloon troop In the

manufacture of hydrogen gas for use

troop in many of the peace and war
time uses of this gas. He has given
them the balloon. Recently the troop
took 1t through Kansas City streets

n part of the anti-alrcraft defenses OF
the city of Paris, and had actually en-
tangled several German planes IN It's

No organs Of the human body are so
important to health and long life as the
kidneys When they slow up and com
mence to lag in their duties, look out!
Danger is in sight.
Find out what the trouble is--with-
out delay. Whenever you feel nervous,
weak, dizzy, suffer from sleeplessness,
or have pains in the back, wake up at
once. Your kidneys need help. These are
signs to warn you that your kidneys
are not performing their functions
properly. They are only half doing
their work and are allowing impurities
to accumulate and be converted into
uric acid and other poisons, which
are causing you distress and will de-
stroy you unless they are driven from
your system.

tee the interest on drainage or irriga-
tion tonds for Ave years.
The State is not asked to pay or
guarantee the bonds. The bonds are
secured by local land and are paid
by local districts. During period of
construction, and in preparing of his
land for maximum production, the
farmer is hard pressed for money,
and the State of Oregon, by extend
ing its credit to aid in development
of his lands, without paying out a
cent of taxpayers money makes it
possible to develop all of these
millions of acres of good farm land
The interest, which State is asked
TO guarantee, will be paid by dis
tricts and State of Oregon simply
acts as banker and financial agent
for districts. 1t is extending results
of Rural Credit act to organizations
of farmers.
II will mean millions Of dollars
spent for construction work and
hundreds of millions added to as

The other measure is the Roose-

interested in being linked with the
other coast states by all year north
