U.OFD. D.FARMERS' DAY
Large Crowd. Gather at Newark
For Annual Event
SEVERAL FINE ADDRESSES

The advisability of farmers engaging
extensively in, research work in connec-
tion with the necessity of doing more
than mere actual field work if they are
to obtain the maximum results, was
strongly urged in an address Thursday
afternoon at the annual Farmers Day
celebration. held at Newark under the
direction of the Experiment Station of
the University of Delaware.
The growing Importance of research
work was stressed by President A. F.
Woods, of the University of Maryland,
in his address,:
Farmers to-day must realize the ne
cesslty of doing work aside from their
activities in the field," he said, and
pointed to the work being done by re.
search agriculturalists in an endeavor
to find things which will enable farmers
to get the largest returns from their
investments. His remarks were replete
with concrete illustrations of exempli-
flying the need he emphasized.
Present modernized agriculture has
resulted purely from work which has
been done in private and public labora-
tories," he declared.
DR.. CLINTON ADVISES RESEARCH
every farmer must believe, first,
that he can do a thing, then he must
have the will to do it," was the message
of DR.. L. A. Clinton, Director of Ag-
ricultural Extension, of the University
of New Jersey, the subject of whose
address was ''The Will To Do"

ing OF Herford cattle, loaned by the

walked a man when all of the bases
were filled, and forced their only run
across the home plate.

 Acting upon the impulse which characterizes his fairness in all things, Senator Price not only invites but urges suggestions, from his con- stituents, relative to the enactment of laws beneficial, not alone for. the Third division, but all Alaska. In this he places the people above him self; Alaska above politics
 "He is rather of an anomaly in politics from the fact that his in tegrity has never been questioned Neither is Tom Price nor Senator Price infallible; he has made mis- takes, for he is human. On the other hand, during his service in the low CT house in 1917 and later in the sen ate in 1919 Senator Price introduced and furthered meritorious legislation.
 Naturally lawmaker, the same as an ordinary citizen, has his hobbies. Senator Price has his, and has suc- cessfully ridden Education and Good Roads to certain victory. He is also an enthusiastic supporter of the min ing industry and the prospector and has advocated the tablshment of geological stations at the various mining centers, including Anchorage. During the coming session he will especially work for the establishment of such station, under the iurisdic- tion of federal mining engineer, in Anchorage.
 Although an avowed Democrat, Senator Price will never sacrifice the interests of his constituents for the selfish interests of party By invit- ing suggestions, Senator Price gives the people an opportunity to declare themselves; he is entitled to this SUD- port, for he is OUR senator, not mere politician.

PARTIAL DISARMAMENT NOT
 PRACTICAL

Senator Borah's plan of naval dis that it applies to only three powers and to navies alone, not to armament ill general. Navies cannot be con- sidered apart from armies. power with navy superior to that of the United States would be able to send an army to this country and could prevent us from sending an expedi- tfon to it's territory, though that might be the only means of secur- ing redress for fragrant wrong. Without naval superiority neither could have sent an army to France, and Germany would have had an easy victory. Naval power is neces- sary to a nation which must cross the sea to attack it's enemies or to help it's allies, or must take to the sea to prevent invasion.
 The maritime interests of the Unit ed States justify as large a navy as that of Great Britain for defense alone, without regard to possible war between the two countries, which, all agree, is too remote to be worth considering Our ocean trade is as great, our merchant marine promises soon to be as great, our domestic coast line is greater and the respon- sibiIity of defending other coasts under the Monroe doctrine is equal to that of Broain to defend it's col Onies and dependencies. If we com plete our building program of 1916 and Britain suspends building, we shall only be equal to that country in capital ships by 1922 and shall >ships, In order to attain equality, we. should build enough of these other ships to secure the due pro- portion to our strength in capital ships.
 While our navy has double the strength of Japan's, we need two fleets, one for the Pacific, one for the Atlantic ocean. An equal divi sion of our navy would make us only equal with Japan on the Pacific. Maintenance of that strength, which requires completion of the 1916 pro. gram and it's rounding out with more smaller craft could not fairly be construed as building against Japan.
 Disarmament can be undertaken only when it is general, and as the last stage in qualification of the world. The way to accomplish it is that which President-elect Harding proposes, by which the United States will join other nations in laying firm foundations of peace, and then will propose that all disarm together He will so soon set to work that nothing is to be gained by offering simply naval disarmament of three nations. Completion of our program to equal ity with that of Britain and to double that of Japan would not interfere with his plans.

URIC ACID IN MEAT
BRINGS RHEUMATISM
Says q little Salts in water may
save you from dread
attack. II

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than
to cure, states a well-known authority.
We are advised to dress warmly; keep
the feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less
meat, but drink plenty of good water.
Rheumatism is a direct result OF
eating too much meat and other ricn
foods that produce uric acid which is
absorbed into the blood. 1t is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out in
the urine; the pores of the skin are
also means of freeing the blood OF
this impurity. In damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate the uric acid
which keeps accommodating and circu-
lating through the system, eventually
settling in the joints and muscles caus-
ing stiffness, soreness and pain called
rheumatism.
At the first twinge OF rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
full in glass of water and drink be-
fore breakfast each morning for a
acid by stimulating the kidneys to nor
NAL action, thus Kidding the blood of
these impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive. harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism.-Adv.
