One Of the worst features Of acid

It is that the people with acid-stomachs
seldom know what their trouble
really is.
No matter how good or wholesome
the food may be. or how much they
eat, they do not gain IN strength.
This is clearly explained by the fact
that an acid-stOmach cannot properly
digest food. Instead Of healthy, nor
NAL digestion. the excess acid causes
the food to sour and ferment. Then
when this mass Of sour, feruented
food, charged with excess acid, passes
into the intestineS, IL becomes the

absorbed into the blood and in this
way distributed throughout the entire

that so many thousands OF people eat

POULTRY NOTES

After all, it is the little things that
count for the most in poultry raising.
Early Matching means chicks less
troubled with lice and disease
Experience teaches US that great
care is needed to prevent poultry par
asities and poultry diseases
Early Matching means chicks that
are past the danger point before hot
weather comes.
The fresher the eggs are when used
for Matching, the better, and eggs over
10 days should be discarded
Comfort for the hens in winter Is
very essential if they are to lay or
get ready TO lay in the spring.
Lice are a menace in winter as well
as In warm weather. and the only pro-
lection for the flock is the dust bath
Hens OF the American and Asiatic
breeds frequently become too fat to
lay, especially after they are two
years old
Csrelessness In purchasing hatch
ing eggs retards flock Improvement.
A turkey raiser must attend to bust
ness TO be successful. Even then a
lot of things can happen to them
If it is worth your while to set any
eggs at all, it surely is worth your
while to set the eggs worth while
When the parent birds lack vitality
the chicks are naturally weak. not
worth raising. and it is time, patience
and money thrown away.
Thirteen. eggs, odd though it may
seem. is the usual number Of eggs to
put under the average sized hen in
the spring Matching.
New blood should be introduced
into the flock as often as possible ana
this can best be done by purchasing
cockerels from some reliable breeder.
Clean eggs are the only kind to use
for Matching. Careless people, and
people who don't care. usually use
the other kind OF eggs and take their
chances accordingly.

Counties Have Until Next Tues
day to Give Proof That
Roads Are Going to
Be Built

Five days remain as days Of grace
for Kansas counties which have been
authorized federal aid money for
building hard-surfaced highways, and
have not at least started operations.
The Kansas Highways commission
has authorized approximately 500
miles of hard-surfaced road, which
will have up to 80 per cent Of cost paid
by the federal government, provided
That by next Tuesday the commits
sion is given proof that the roads are
actually going to be built. The proof
will be that the surveys Of the roads
approved have at least been made, and
that preparations are going forward
for the letting Of contracts.
Roads that do not give the desired
proof will lose the authorization Of
federal aid. OF the 500 miles Of road
approved for federal aid, only 16O
miles SO far has passed the survey
stage. Only q little more than 80
miles is under construction. The $50
miles hangs in the balance.
Meanwhile, in many Kansas cOun-
ties, authorities are rushing work 90
that they can keep the assurance Of
federal aid money. If they do not
succeed, well, other Kansas counties
have their applications for aid money
waiting with the highway commission.
The total amount Of federal aid for
the next thirty months is $1,000. 900.
Practically all of this has been prom
ised, unless some counties have not
made the progress required and the
aid money is withdrawn.

ZINC MARKET GAINS
STRENGTH, PRICE UP
Buyers Offer $3.50 and Pro
ducers Hold Out for
$55-Lead Up to
$65.00

The zinc ore market continues to
gain strength and buyers were Offer
ing $3.50 with most Of the producers
holding out for $55. While the buyers
were apparently confident Of cOmplet-
ing their orders today the producers
were expecting q repetition Of last
weeks performance, when the price
had to jump before the buying could
be completed. The price for high
grade was $3.50. Lead ore was re-
ported at $65 q ton, q $3.50 increase
over last week.
The continued strength Of the metal
markets both in America and London
indicate the possibility Of q further
increase in the zinc and lead price
here and the probability Of q more
stable market than in former years.
The coal shortage in England which
is expected to prohibit the smelling Of
ore in England, Is given as the cause
Of the increase on the London market
of American zinc. The English smell
ters have been run ON the low Erads
Australian ore, which must be hauled
q greater distance than from the Ok
lahoma-Kansas field to Liverpool. The
long haul and low grade Of the ore
(abOut 2sS6) coupled with the eoal
shortage Is expected to keep the Eng
lish manufacturers In the American
market for some time, unless the Am
eriean price goes too high.
Exporters are also anticipating
large orders from Germany within the
near future.
The price Of refined Eine went to
