farmers are planning to grow certi-
fled seed potatoes, according to the
county agent, +. E. Merriman, who

No need to suffer from that tired,
dead ache in your back, that lame
ness, those distressing urinary disor-
ders. Mt. Sterling people have found
how to get relief. Follow this Mt.
Sterling residents example.
Quint StGckdale, blacksmith, A

l got down with my back and kid
neys. The attack came on quickly
after my recovering from the grip
and was about all in. Ny back got
so painful had to go about all bent
over. The kidney secretions passed
many times during the day and night
and there was a burning sensation. A
friend advised me to try Doan's Kid
ney Pills, and 1 went to Land &
Priests Drug Store and got a box.
After using them was all right and
have felt fine ever since. / am only
too glad to endorse Doan's."

New Circular Outlines
Potato Growing Points

1t is seldom practicable to hold
tubers from the first crop Of po-
tatoes for seed and for this reason
the seed crop is usually planted from
the middle to the latter part IF July,
according to Circular No. 100, which
has just come off the press at the
College of Agriculture, and which is
intended to be a guide for junior ag-
ricultural club members who are
growing spuds as their club project.
Full details concerning soil prepara-
ton, planting, cultivation, harvest
ing and other points are contained in

been planted in corn at the last culti-
vation, where corn is grown con-
tinuously on the same ground, that
the yield of corn has been increased
only three bushels an acre. Members
of the soils and crops department Of
the station attribute the failure of
this method of cropping to the dry
weather and the competition of the
corn which prevents a satisfactory
growth.
Legume catch crops also made un-
satisfactory growth where corn ap-
peared in rotation once in four
years. The large number of drouths
in Kentucky after the planting of a
catch crop make this practice un-
profitable. The only sure means Of
keeping up the nitrogen supply is to
have a legume occupying full year
in the rotation and saving the man
ure by feeding these legumes and
other crops or turning the legumes
under, the specialists say.

FROM REMOTEST
PARTS OF GLOBE
TanIac Elements Come From Many
Lands Far Away
From Here

The ingredients from which the
celebrated medicine Tanlac is made,
come from remote sections of the
earth, and are transported thou
sands of miles over land and sea to
the great Tanlac Laboratories at
Dayton, Ohio, and Walkerville, Can
ada.
The Alps, Appenines, Pyreness,
Russian Asia, Brazil, West Indies,
Rocky Mountains, Asia Minor, Per-
sia, India, Mexico, Columbia and
Peru are among the far away points
from which the principal properties
of this remarkable preparation are
obtained.
What is said to be the largest
pharmaceutical laboratory in the
United States has been completed at
Dayton, Ohio, for the manufacture
of Tanlac, which, according to re-
cent reports, IS now having the larg-
est sale of any medicine Of its kinG
in the world, over 20.CGG,0O0 bottles
having been sod in SIX years.
The new plant occupies 10000
square feet Of floor space, and has
a daily capacity of $4,000 bottles,
Uniform quality is guaranteed by q
series of careful inspections by ex-
pert chemists from the time the
roots, herbs, bark and flowers are
received in their rough state from
all parts of the globe until their
medicinal properties have been ex-
tracted by the most approved pro-
cesses. The finished medicine is
then bottled, labeled and shipped out
to tens of thousands Of druggists
throughout the United States and
Canada to supply a demand never
before equalled by this or any other
medicine.

WANTED: The
Wisdom of Solomon

But none responded and as time
wore on, the problem of getting to-
gether a sister and brother, twins,
became more complicated. Pearl, the
boy and Bertha were born in the
Nicholas county poorhouse, their
parents being too poor to care for
them and in their desperation turned
them over to the county for better
or for worse.
The little waits, homeless, their
parents gone, came under the care
of the Nicholas county judge and he
committed them to the Kentucky
Children's Home Society, Louisville.
That was twenty years ago.
Under the care of the home and
thrown with the little wards of their
own age the little twins blossomed
into beautiful boyhood and girlhood.
Almost simultaneously two couples
applied to the Society for Children
to adopt.
The two couples were invited TO
visit the Home and select the chill
dren of their choice and one day
they arrived. Both from neighboring
communities amid both arriving the
same day.
Pearl Immediately appealed to one
couple and the other selected Bertha
for their little girl.
Then the children began TO pine
for one another. Being twins the
ties of kinship seemed even stronger
than those of brother and sister and
each foster parent realized that the
two must be brought together.
Neither would relinquish the little
ward thev learned to love. Then came
the world war.
Pearl went to a training camp.
where he became an officer, and
made heroic record overseas. His
father also enlisted and was sent to
the Philippines. At the close Of the
war Pearls foster father realized
the hoy could not stand the climate
of Uncle Sans island possessions, so
temporarily allowed Pearl to reside
in the home with his sister.
Now the twins are united Bertha,
while Pearl was fighting for human
ity, studied music and is considered

MISSION GIVES LITERALLY
 TO HELP EUROPEAN RELIEl

When the appeal for financial aid for the starving children of Europe was heard at St. Marks Episcopal mission, shortly after Christmas, the members of the staff and the children of the mission inaugurated an active campaign, putting forth every effort to raise substantial sum by Easter.
 The boys of the mission were given permission to go into town Saturday afternoons, to get jobs of piling wood, shoveling snow and other work of that nature, and they were also given the little extra jobs about the mission. The larger girls did crocheting for the mission and for number of ladies in town and the smaller girls we're given extra housework to do. It was the rule of the campaign that every one of the children work for the money contributed to the fund, anc

DEATH SUMMONS N. G. COX;
 WAS OLDTIME NoRTHERNER

N. G. Cox, who was brought to Nenana from Livengood several days ago for treatment for con- plication of diseases, died at the Government hospital shortly after two o'clock this afternoon. He was in a critical condition when he ar rived here and small hope was en- tertained for his recovery. Death is attributed to heart disease and dropsy.
 The deceased was one of the most widely known oldtimers in Interior Alaska. He was in business for many years at Chatanika and was more recently engaged in business in the Tolovana, where he is sur vived by wife. He was a member of the Fairbanks igloo of Pioneers and probably will be buried by that organization.

 One little girls father gave her $1O and she immediately put the money in the fund, together with $4.5O that she had earned. Another girl, who has not walked for nearly two years, earned $21.50 by crochet ing and knitting, and one of the boys earned $20.
 The members of the mission staff are Miss Bessie B. Blacknall, Miss Jackson, Miss Myrle Rose, Miss Fern Rose and Arthur Wright.

The picture shows a section of the glacier, with the summer sun shining brightly on the ice, and a young man in sport cap, light overcoat and pointed dress shoes, turning the crank of a moving picture camera.

The News would very much re- yret to see an Eastern man, or any Outsider appointed governor of our territory. We have had experience with the carpet bag variety of offce-holders and there is little that can be said in their favor. But what are the people of Alaska go- ing to do about it? What have they done to encourage the belief at Washington that an Outsider should not be appointed? Nothing that has come to our attention.
 As Washington sees us, we are 2 very much divided people, unable to agree on a single candidate for office in the territory, and with no show of willingness to compromise. The situation must be confusing, to say the least, to President Hard ing, who appears sincere in his de sire to do something, worth while for. the territory. It would be a lot easier if Alaskans would get to- gether on the problem of appoint ments and eliminate some of the factionalism. With solid front Alaskans can get almost anything they desire at Washington. Without it, we will get just what Washington is inclined to give us, and no more
