BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute 6

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets the sub
stitute for calomel-are mild but sure
laxative. and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. These little olive
colored tablets are the result of DR..
Edwards determination not to treat
liver andbowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the good
that calomel does, but have no bad after
effects. They don't injure the teeth like
strong liquids or calomel They take
h2id OF the trouble and quickly correct
it. Why cure the liver at the expense of
the teeth? Calonel sometimes plays
havoc with the gums. So do strong
liquids. 1t is best not to take calomel.
Let DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets take
its place.
Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel 'iogy" and
heavy. They clear" clouded brain
and 'pc-s Up" the spirits. 15c and 30c.

RECORDS SHOCKS OR
BLOWS ON BRIDGES
New Instruments Makes Certainty in
r.. Bridge Designing Possible
Effect of Motor Trucks.

WASHINGTON, Nov "a new in
strument which it is believed will do
away with uncertainty in designing
and building bridges. has been devised by
the bureau of public roads of the de
partment of agriculture. The instru-
ment measures with scientific precision
every shock and blow delivered by NOV
ing vehicles in crossing a bridge.
The device. which can be attached TO
any part of the bridge structure. makes
Photographic record of the effect of
the moving load. The amount of stretch
ing or shortening due to shock is repre-
scented by a fine black line on the pho
tograph. No blow or shock can be de-
livered so quickly that the instrument
viii not record it.
As engineers heretofore have been
unable to measure the effect of quickly
delivered impacts or to proportion the
various parts of a bridge with absolute
assurance. il has been necessary to make
liberal allowance for this unknown
quantity. In some cases the allowance
has not been sufficient and bridges have
collapsed under moving loads.
Recent experiments with motor trucks
have shown. it is said at the bureau,
that swiftly moving truck may strike
blow equivalent to seven times its ac-
tual weight.

NEW COOPERATIVE
MARKETING PLAN
Livestock Producers Meet
to Form National
Organization
AMERICAN FARM
BUREAU SCHEME
No Pool Nor Contract PIanned-HOpe to
Regulate Flow of Livestock to Market
and Stabilize Prices-Win Help Small
Commission Firms.

CHICAGO, Nov. lO-For the second
time this year farmers OF the county
meet here today to consider launching a
national cooperative marketing move
meut This time it is of livestock. After
working nine months a farmers live
stock committee of Is named by the
American Farm federation brings in its
report today to a ratification conference
representative OF livestock producers.
Unlike the national grain marketing
plan adopted last spring and incorpor-
ated IN the L. S. Grain Growers, Inc,
the livestock plan calls for no pool nor
contract covering a period of years.
Establishment OF a national livestock
producers association Is one of the out
standing features of. the program laid
before today 5 meeting. More important
yet. as the heart of the plan, Is the ere
alton of cooperative livestock commits
sion associations at the various stock
yards, with allied stoeker-and feeder
companies.
Cooperative livestock commission com
pautes. wnicn have recently grown mum
eroue, are To be strengthened. \ pro
gram of orderly marketing Is to be
worked out. 4 transportation depart
ment Is TO be created. Livestock sta
tlstIcs are to be interpreted. In addition
it is advancing public appreciation OF
meat as a food
" hat the plan proposes to do in short,
is to greatly extend the cooperative mar
keting OF livestock from the faTmer TO
the packinghouse, to do this through a
national organization, overseeing, dove
failing and working out plans. and to
eventually regulate To a considerable de-
gree the flow of livestock to market so
as To prevent gluts and disastrous price
breaks.
What is expected for the farmer is a
arger vo.ce III the sale OF ms hve-
stock, a saving in marketing costs, a
saving in purchase ana sale of stocker
and feeder cattle and eventually a more
stabilized market Through large num-
bers of farmers marketing together It
is anticipated they may be able To sell
TO better advantage than the individual
farmer does today.
If the plan Is ratified today as 1t Is
anticipated It will be, formation OF the
National Livestock Producers associa-
pral cooperative livestock commission
houses have recently been formed, and
more will be established as soon as
practicable.
The livestock business runs into the
hundreds of millions of dollars annually
and proponents Of the plan anticipate
a substantial share of this but have no
expectation of getting it ali EXten-
sion of the plan viii chiefly affect small
and inefficient privately owned livestock
commission firms ON the various mar
kets. according to the COMMITTEES, which
saws il is generally recognized there are
too many of these now. operating to
handle the business efficiently.

Cent Profit Oh Meat.

KANSAS CITY. Mo. Nov. 10.-Why
the finished product of the farm and cattle

day az a conference here under the aus
pieces of the Chamber of Commerce of the

J. y. Van Der Fries. general western
manager Of the chamber said statistics
showed that the farmer and livestock
raiser received about 81 per cent of the
price the consumer paid fer their prod
uctS
Thomas f. Wilson said 50 per cent of
the amount the packers received for all
meat products went to the livestock rails
ers. leaving a gross margin of profit of IL
per cent to the packers.
