If mankind can get down to solid, substantial

there can be UtOpia-that operation OF human I'M
Outstanding and mundane conditions cannot produce
an ideal state in any land under the sum- and all that
can be hoped is to carry things along there may be
full and free development along natural llnes with
all having fair chance for living decety, honoraby
and justly.
If men could grasp and build upon the truths in
the.foregoing paragraph there would be better I'M
derstanding all around with less friction and trouble
between classes and interests. That well" 'Ting
things nearer Utopia than anything else that could be
devised But the difficulty is to make men see it.
All think something different is needed-except those
who try to grab everything in sight IF ~ can
grab unrestrained whv the world suits them, and
they put up stiff maigant fight against all who op
nose them And those who see the evils have
many different ways among and between them for
finding and applying remedies that they quarrel over
means and methods. The Socialist sees one cureal,
the orthodox politician another and when men get
together to formulate policies for control and re-
etraint of undue influence in the body polite, why
those same undue influences represented at the
council board bent upon waxing the ca"@= 'hlch
they generally succeed in doing.
Surveying these facts and conditions the fair
minded man or woman honestly a.;rutted bv desire
to see prevailing upon all sides wht is right and
meet, hardly knows which way to turn in exercising
his voice and influence toward making the world BET
ter and more comfortable for existence by those who
are not wolfike in character and disposition.
There is one of the great difficulties in the stua-
ton The wolf nature in some is too strongly
accentuated and their snarling and Quareing among

the great war our Oil companies consumption con-
stantly exceeding production the who raised his
voice against the national policy which dscour-
aging oil production, was 1idculed and condemned
by vote seeking politicians.
Well the oil shortage is here as any person who.
uses oil testify. The beIstcd passage &C lie oil
land leasing bill will help the situation next year
In the meantime the talk that the Oil shortage is put
up job is just as foolish the former t2". that
there danger of falling Of our oil supply.
Oil companies are spending millions drilling in
old and territory anG doing everything possible
to increase the supply by modern th Ids of refining.
In the meantime it would be well for govern

possible instead of limiting it as in the past

Kurtz Writes from Idaho

Grand View. Ida. March 81, 1920.
Dear Keota Folks: left keota on
Wednesday and arrived in Mt. Home
Thursday evening. My brother-in-law
met me. and on Friday We drove by
auto to Grand View. a distance OF
twenty-five miles. found everything
about as expected SO went to work.
A week later Mrs. Kurtz and baby
came from Greeley. We got settled in
our new home and have been busy get
ting our ranch ready for water.
Grand View is near the center of
Grand View valley on the Snake River.
1t is an old town but not large. IL has
a good general store. bank, ten
grade school. church. garage. etc.
Grand View Valley is about fifteen
miles wide. 1t is considered one of the
finest hay sections in the States. owing
to the great depth Of soil and the cx-
trcmely hot weather which makes the
alfalfa grow rapidly. The mild winters
make it an ideal place for stock. there
fore thousands Of sheep and cattle are
driven in from the range and fed the
alfalfa that is raised in the summer.
The valley is dotted here and there with
old placer mines and oven now you will
see prospectors boating up and down
the river in an cffor; to ''strikc il rich.
Our ranch is right on the bank Of the
river. II has iifty-iivc acres: forty in
alfalfa. five in apples. and ten in feed
yards. We like IL real well. This for
ty acres of hay will cut two hundred
tons while some of the best cuts as
high as ten tons per acre. There aren't
any large ranches. the average being
about eighty acres. Land sells from
$50 to $3.50 per acre when there's any
for sale

Thousands upon thousands of women

Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result Of kidney or bladder disease.
II the kidneys are not in healthy con-
ditiou, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita-

any one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Ki,ner's Swsmp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
