TURNING RATS TO ACCOUNT
Japanese Authorities Anticipate Sub.
stantial Revenue From Leather
Made From Hides of Pests.

In the neighborhOod of Aomori, Ja-
pan, the hides of squirrels are tanned
and used as carpets, neckclOths and
for other purposes. This has sug.
gested to Doctor Hasegawa KiyOnari,
head of the Hasegawa hospital at
Osaka, who is a member of the Osaka
municipal assembly, the possibility of
turning to good account the hides of
the numerous rats bought by the mu.
nicipal authorities, in view of the
great advance in the price Of hides
and leather. Doctor Hasegawa ap.
preached the authorities with the pro.
pOsal, which was favOrably received.
They accordingly tanned the skins of
two rats and sought the opinion of
dealers as to what the leather would
sell for. The dealers estimated that
the skin of one rat was worth 20 sen
in it's raw condition. The public health
authorities are now devising special
means of disinfecting and tanning rat
skins,
It is estimated that a great sum
could have been obtained by tanning
the hides of One-third of the rats
bought by the Osaka municipal au.

PLANT A TREE

A recent visitor to Ocala, in his
summing up of it's beauties and blem-
ishes, expressed surprise at the few
citrus trees to be seen in the yards
and residence lots of the town.
His comment as to the added beauty
Of most of the surrounding towns,
caused by the evergreen foliage of
well cared for citrus trees, and this
covers oranges, grapefruit, tangerines
and kumquats, was that. without re-
gard to the commercial value of such
planting, the general appearance of
a town when it's residence lots were
planted to such fruit trees was, to the
northern visitor, a confirmation of the
mental picture which had been drawn
Of Florida in his PARKWAY. frigid
home.
If one visits Leesburg, Lakeland
Orlando, Sanford. Eustis or Kissim-
NEE, the prevalence of citrus tree
growth in the town is strikingly in
evidence, and the beauty of a well
kept citrus tree can be even better
observed in that position than if il
were seen as one in a row of fifty In
thrifty grove.
In the days of a generation ago
Ocala was one huge grove and a re-
turn to that condition, so far as is
possible, would be both identifying
and profitable.
Moral: "Plant a Tree"

URIC ACID IN MEAT
CLOGS THE KIDNEYS
Take glass Of Salts if your Back hurts
or Bladder bothers you-Drink
more water.

If you must have your meat every day,
eat it, but flush your kidneys with salts
occasionally, says noted authority who
tells us that meat forms uric acid which
almost paralyzes the kidneys in their eff
forts to expel it from the blood. They
become sluggish and weaken, then you
suffer with dull misery in the kidney
region, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated and when the weather
Is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or three
time during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acid, 70
cleanse the kidneys and flush of the
body's urinous waste get four ounces of
Jad Salts from any pharmacy here;
take q tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
1ithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys,
also to neutraliZe the acids in urine,
so it no longer irritates, thus ending
hl1dder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure, and makes delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink.

AMERICAN LEGION
ON NATIONAL ISSUES

When Marion County Post No. /,
Of the American Legion meets IN the
Board of Trade room, Ocala, Thurs
Cay night, November 6. at o'clock,
the question Of bonuses will be thresh-
ed out. This and other questions con-
corning eX-service men will come be-
fore the national convention of the
American Legion which will be held
IN Minneapolis, November 10, II and
II, and every member Of the local
post, therefore. should be at the meet
ing on November 8. in order that the
delegates from Florida to the national
convention may know how the Marion
county post stands on the question to
be decided.
Thirty-six bonus bills have been in
troduced in Congress to date. What
ever action Congress takes in regard
to these measures will depend very
largely, if not entirely, upon the ma
tiOnal convention at Minneapolis.
Among the things to be acted upon
here at the national convention will
be the following: The establishment
Of the permanency of the American
Legion, and the announcement of a
future course along the lines laid
down at St. Louis and Paris, as arti-
fled or modified by the members of
the organization. This will involve
the elect on of permanent officers; the
adoption of permanent policies of or
ganiaztion, down through the state
branches and the local posts; methods
OF routine procedure; membership
questions of eligibility and transfer,
and nomenclature of post. state and
national officers; location of national
headquarters, and other matters of
organization detail now held in abey-
ance. The convention will have the
far-reaching task of declaring the
lcgion's policy with regard to national
issues, in which the welfare of the
country and the welfare of the great
war veterans are intermingled.
All of these great questions will
have to be decided on a strictly non
political and non-partisan basis. The
act of Congress chartering the Amer
lean Legion provides that the legion
shall not promote the candidacy of
any one for public office.
The American Legion has been de-
clared by newspaper editor to be
''the most important and potentially
| powerful institution in the history of
the republic" Active state branches
have been established in every state
| in the Union. Local posts have been
organized in more than five thousand
communities. When the convention
! convenes in Minneapolis. on Nov. 10
the membership of the American
| Legion will exceed one million.
Other matters of serious impor.
lance to both the country and ex.
soldiers, that will come before the
Minneapolis convention. will be: the
future military policy of the United
States, educational facilities for ex
service men and women. the future Of
war risk insurance, and soldiers lane
| legislation.

art. This was the decision handed
down in the Bronx municipal court by
Justice Robitzek in dismissing a suit
to recover alleged damages because a
baby had embellished the interior dec
orations of an apartment by frieze

They are discussing the question
of whether negroes shall be allowed
to join the American Legion or not.
We don't think it would work. The
negroes did their duty faithfully and
well during the war. and the proper
thing for them to do is to have an or
ganization of their own. same as they
have their own churches and fraternal
orders. If they form such an organi-
zation, it will be the duty of white
men to help it along and see that its
members have the treatment due to
all defenders of their country.
