NO CUT LIKELY IN
FARM FOODPR|CEs
Production IS Reduced and
Labor is Higher
MANY LEAVING THE FARMS
Statistics Sent To The Department
OF Agriculture Show A Reduction
Of Three Per Cent. In The Num-
Der OF People On Farms.

MISUNDERSTANDING that serious
risk OF reduced food production inn
ponds because of high wages demand
ed by farm laborers, high cost of farm
equipment and supplies and pro-
nounced movements Of people from
the farms to the cities was given by
the Department of Agriculture on the
basis OF reports and letters from all
sections of the country.
The most definite of these reports
come from New York State,' the de-
partment's announcement said, where
records of the population on BITS rep
resentative farms on February / this
year and February year ago were
made by federal and state workers.
1t was disclosed that during the past
year the number of people on these
farms decreased nearly per cent. and
the number Of hired men decreased
more than IL per cent. If the same
ratio holds for all farms in the State
about $4,000 men and BOYS left farm
ing to go into other industries, while
only about 1000 have changed from
other industries to farming This is
a more rapid movement from the
farms to other industries than took
place in the early part Of the war.
The same conditions in varying
degrees exist in all sections, accord
ing to the Federal Bureau of Crop
Estimates, although they are not so
acute farther from industrial centers.
Another New York report, apple.
able in some degree in every part of
the country, is that farm wages this
year will average IA per cent. higher
than they were in 1919, although in
1919 they were so per cent. higher
than they were at the beginning of
the war. Estimates from $50 farmers
in all parts of New York indicate that
experienced farm help, hired by the
month, will be paid this year about $50
a month and board as compared with
$45.50 last year. Experienced married
men, not boarded but provided with a
house and farm products, are expected
to receive on the average about $68.50
month in cash, as compared with
$50 last year.
Numerous letters to the Depart
ment of Agriculture from it's field
workers or from farmers indicate
widespread disposition to cut down
paintings so that the work of cult
waiting can be attended to by the
farmer himself or by members of his
family. The assertions that farmers
cannot pay the high wages demanded
in competition with other industries
and make profit on their products is
frequently made. Many farmers also
declare it is unfair to them to be I'M
der the necessity of working 10, Il
or more hours day when the ten.
dency in other industries is toward a
shorter working day and decreased
output"

DRUGS EXCITE YOUR
KIDNEYS, USE SALTS
It Your Back Hurts or Bladder
sothers, Drink Lots OF
Water,

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with
lot OF drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you keep.
your bowels clean, by flushing them
with mild, harmless salts which re-
moves the body's urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ-
ity. The function of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a nours they
strain from 1t 500 grains of acid and
waste, so we can readily understand
the vital Importance of keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots Of water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of JaJ Salts:
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast each morning
for few days and your kidneys viii
act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to clean
and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutralize the acids in urine so it no
longer is source of irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot i'm
jure; makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep
their kidneys clean and active. Try
this. also keep up the water drinking.
and no doubt you will wonder what
became of your kidney trouble and

weak nations to exist and to thrive
and the right Of Jugo-Slavia and AL
bania particularly to a place in the
sun. T ia
These are some of the disclosures,
some of which had been Officially inti-
mated in the last two weeks and all Of
which have served to create re-
strained relationship between this Gov
eminent and the Governments Sasso-
ciated with it in the prosecution of the
war against Germany.
Unless the note which the Allies dis
patched tonight to Washington is, in
effect, surrender to the President,
steps of the most far-reaching char
acter may be the immediate result.
In the first place, the President is
expected to withdraw the treaty of
peace from the Senate if the response
of the Allies is not satisfactory to him.
His advisers insist that he was never
more in earnest in his life than he is
at this moment and that he did not
deliver an empty threat when he
warned France and Great Britain that
it might become necessary for Amer
lea to retire from further concert with
her war associates upon the issues Of
peace.
If the note which is yet to be de-
livered is conciliatory, if it holds out
a definite hope OF some revision of
the Adriatic settlement along lines laid
down by the President, he may be ex-
pected, it is said, to leave matters in
suspense pending the execution Of
such promises as the Allies may make.
But if the second note of the En-
tente is as firm as the first, or If it
announces that the Treaty Of London
is to be carried out in lieu Of all
other Adriatic proposals, the chances
are ten to one that the President will
dispatch a message to the Senate
forthwith asking that the two treaties
be returned to him.
The whole capital was stirred by the
revelations of the Adriatic correspond
ence and particularly by the sharp and
decisive way in which both parties to
this fateful controversy deal with the
questions at issue. Mr.. Wilson scarce
ly could have been more emphatic and
at the same time clotihe his words in
diplomatic form; nor could the Allied
Premiers have been more curt and
remain courteous in their attitude to-
ward the American Executive.

policy.
In accepting the leaders program,
Chairman Kahn obtained an agree
ment for consideration of the plan

LIVESTOCK LOSS
BY WOLVES SMALL
Killings Are Evidenced in the
Highwoods, Says Forest
Service Man.

Although there are evidences that
stock has been. killed this winter by
wolves in the Highwoods, investigation
by A. G. Adams, supervisor of the Lewis
and Clark and Jefferson national for
ests, indicates that the loss has not been
heavy.
Mr.. Adams was in Great Falls Mon
day after. a week spent in the Highwoods

pointed forest ranger for that district.
All of the stock has been taken off
