years / was in n terrible state. l
could hardly keep a morsel OF food
down. 1 had indigestion so bad; / had
headaches. dizzy spells and lost
heavily in weight; 1 could not sleep
at night and was badly run down.
I read OF the wonderful cures made
by Plant Juice of people I knew. and
try it The result was certainly
wonderful and my appetite is now
fine; I sleep we'll atsnight and get
up in the morning feeling refreshed
and ready for my days work. My
wife was in rundown condition and
had indigestion. too. When she saw
the wonderful benefit I got, she
started to taking Plant Juice also,
with the Same fine results 1 got. She
looks fine and is not troubled with
indigestion any more; has a good APP

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-Manufac-
turers and shippers in general were
urged to assist American railroads
in making fullest use OF their rolling
stock In an appeal issued today by
the railroad committee Of the U. S..

the railroad equipment. Under pres
ent economic conditions. 1t was
added. the railroads cannot obtain
the cars at reasonable prices or make
terminal improvements that might
expedite their movement
An average freight car spends 81

in trains moving between terminals.

was suggested that shippers volun-
tarily reduce the time cars are kept
by them TO twcnty-four hours. which
practice. If adopted. tho committee

Quote. Harding on 81 wheat.

CHICAGO. Sept 9.-Congrcssnan
Frank Dorcrnus. chairman of the Cen
trail Western headquarters of the
Democratic National Committee, to-
day issued the following statement
on Senator Hard!ng's speech at the
Minneapolis State fair grounds yes
tcrday:
Senator Harding'a st. Paul speech
was an adroit effort TO placate farm
crs, who remembered what he said
when the bill for 81 wheat was on its
passage. He said then. as nc does not
undertake to deny IT now. that dollar
wheat makes a very profitable occu-
patton and that If the qualities of
American patriotism arc such that we
must guarantee the American farmer
a price for his wheat in the face of
world famine. then there is not pa
triotism enough in this country to win
the war
Senator Harding said at that time,
as the Congressional Record for July
10. 1917. shows. that it would be
agreeable to him to strike at the
manifest greed in some agricultural
sections. But he now sidcNeps by
declaring that no public servant
would dare TO say he believed in dol
lar wheat amid the price wildness
which is prevailing today
when the Senator made that speech
the United States was at war. Tho
farmer was in worse case for labor
by far .han he is now. If Senator
Harding thought dollar wheat was
profitble then and the demand for 81
wheat was greedy. he will have diff
fculty in explaining 1t away now TO
the hard-headed farmer of the wheat
belt, however reseate the program
he may lay out on paper
