the Commissioner and the assem-.

viewed the treaty of 1889, pointing
out that the provisions Of that
treaty had not up to this late day
been carried out by the Federal
government, most important Of
which was the failure to make
allotments to the Red I Lake In
dams; he also went carefully over
the legislation proposed by the
General Council. Regarding the
efforts being made by the non.

PEPTO-MANCAN
KEEPS BLOOD Pure
GROWING CHILDREN NEED
PLENTY OF RED CELLS
IN BLOOD.

When the young body is growing,
children frequently experience weak
ness. Girls and boys sometimes play
too hard and over-tax their systems.
They become pale, weak and sickly.
They lose their appetites, become Ian
guild, and are not able to make prog
ress in school work. "Growing too
fast" is often true. 1t is most i'm
portant to keep the blood of growing
girls and boys in healthy state.
Pepto-Mangan keeps the blood pure.
The red cells in the blood are increas-
ed. They carry life-giving oxygen to
all parts of the body, and wholesome
youthfulness blooms again in clear
compilations, bright eyes and buoyant
spirits. Sold both in liquid and tab
let form by druggists everywhere.

Mrs. George Jay Gould, wife of the
capitalist, dropped dead Sunday while
playing golf with her husband on
the private links at Georgian Court,
their country home in New Jersey.
She had just finished a drive at the
fifth tee and was watching the flight
of the ball when she collapsed without
a word. Mr.. Gould turned to speak
tc her and was astonished to see her
lying across the tee. Thinking his
wife merely had stumbled, Mr.. Gould
hastened to assist her to her feet, but
when she failed to speak to him he
sent the caddie on a hurry call for
physicians, who pronounced her dead
from heart disease.

MONKEY GLAND IN A MAN
Writer Undergoes Very Strange Oper-
alton to Regain Youth.

An operation which marked the
first case in the United States where
a man had a gland removed from
the body of monkey and implanted
in his own was performed a few days
ago in New York city. The patient
ic Irving R. Bacon, one time lawyer
and writer. Mr.. Bacon permitted
the operation to be made public so
that humanity will know whether
there is any good in the socalled
monkey gland operation" for man.
kind.
A local anaesthetic was used for
the patient, at his own request, as
he desired to remain conscious dur.
ing the process of gland transplanta-
ton. Eighteen minutes before DR..
McLeay made the incision on the pa
tient, Miss Vrooman, the nurse, liber-
ated the monkey in the operating
room where Mr.. Bacon was lying.
Originally it had been planned to
have the patient ard animal side by
side.
DR.. Edgar, who performed the oper-
alton, said of the solution in which
the gland was kept, that "in that
solution I have kept the heart Of a
tortoise alive and beating for six
hours. In it are salts contained in
the human blood" The violet rays
were played on this solution and an
electric current sent through it for
purposes of ideal stimulation.
Bacon bore up well. He said he
felt no pain, but was nauseated. He
seemed interested in the fate of the
monkey, for he asked: as the mon
key all right?" He said it was "only
the thought that nauseates me-"
Prior to the operation, Bacon, who
is a highly educated man, declared he
was going through the operation for
his own good, to restore youth to a
mentality which he said was suffer-
ing from grim inroads OF age. Also
he said that if the operation is all
that he, as a layman, understands it
to be, he looks for restoration of his
general physical condition.
"I have carefully gone over Mr.. Ba-
cons blood in my laboratory, and have
found that he is suffering from a
secondary anemia, which is due to
his presenilic condition" DR.. Edgar
said. "This is one of the subnormal-
tiles which 1 hope to rectify."
"The animal chosen for the surgi-
cal operation was a native of North
ern Brazil" he continued. at is
monkey of the ring tail variety stand
ing approximately two feet in height.
It's intelligence is above that of the
ordinary monkey of its weight and
environment. The ring tail monkeys
are unusually free from diseases
prevalent in the species"

Thanksgiving Proclamation

President Harding has issued a
proclamation designating Thursday,
November "a, as the day of thanks
giving, devotion and prayer and urg-
ing the people to give thanks "for all
that has been rendered unto them"
and to pray "for continuance OF the
divine fortune which has been show
cred so generously upon this nation"
The proclamation follows:
"That season has come when, alike
in pursuance of 4 devout peoples
time honored custom in grateful rec
ognition Of favoring national fortunes,
il is proper that the president should
summon the nation to day Of de-
votion, Of thanksgiving for blessings
bestowed, and Of prayer for guidance
il modes Of life that may deserve
continuance Of divine favor.
Foremost among our blessings Is
the return Of peace, ana the sppgoaeh
to normal ways again. The year has
brought us again into relations, after
a long period Of struggle and tmbu-
lence. In thankfulness therefor, We
may well unite in the hope that prov
idence will vouchsafe approval to the
things we have done, the aims which
have guided US, the aspirations which
have inspired US. We shall be pros
pered as we shall deserve prosperity,
seeking not alone for the material
things but for those OF the spirit as
we'll; earnestly trying to help others;
asking, before all else, the privilege
of service. AS we render thanks
anew for the eXaltation which came
to US we may fittingly petition that
moderation and wisdom shall be
granted to rest upon all who are in
authority, in the tasks they must dis
charge. Their hands will be stead
led, their purposes strengthened, in
answer to our prayers.
"Ours has been a favored nation
in the bounty which God has bestow-
ed upon it. The great trial of human
ity, though indeed we bore our part
as we'll as We were able, left us COM
paratively little scared. 1t is for US
to recognize that we have been thus
favored, and when We gather at our
altars to offer up thanks, we will do
we'll to pledge, in humility and all
sincerity, our purpose to prove de-
serving. We have been raised up and
preserved in national power and con-
sequence, as part of a plan whose
wisdom we cannot question. Thus be;
lieving, we can do no less than hold
our nation the instrument of the prov
idence which has so wonderfully fav-
ored US. Opportunity for very great
service awaits US if we shall prove
equal to it. Let our prayers be raised,
for direction in the right paths. Un-
der God, our responsibility is great;
to our own first, to all men afterward;
to all mankind in Gods own justice.
"Now, therefore, l, Warren G.
Harding, president Of the United
States, hereby designate Thursday,
the twenty-fourth day of November,
to be observed by the people as
day of thanksgiving, devotion and
prayer; urging that at their heart
sides and their altars they will give
thanks for all that has been rendered
unto them, and will pray for contin-
uance of the divine fortune which has
been showered so generously upon
this nation"

Now t;lat the farmers of the South
are organizing in strcng business as
sociations throughout the cotton and
tobacco belts, and the success of the
cooperative marketing movement is
inevitable, a miracle of change has
taken place.
Despairing of financial aid as indi-
viduals, while the Federal Reserve
Hoard turned deaf ear to pleas for
rural credits, and New York bankers
chuckled gleefully over the half billion
collars which th4 farmers Of Ameri-
ca lost in the sudden price deflation,
the farmers organized in despera-
ton.
Suddenly the Federal Reserve
Board passed resolutions promising
LIBERAL rural credits to enable grow
ers to move and market crops, the
War Finance Corporation revises and
agrees to lend some thirty million
dollars to efficient marketing asso-
Citations and New York bankers, who
were chuckling year ago over the
farmers plight, are now preparing
t. stack million for million along with
the State banks which are backing the
organized farmers Of the cotton belt
The farmer in the Marketing AS
sociation can now talk business, and
big business now sits up and takes
notice of the farmer,-now that he
holds the majority of his states cot
ton or peanuts, raisins, prunes or
tobacco in his hands, AND under con-
tract for five years.
During this year the Prune Grow
ers' contract in California expired.
Instead of signing a five year con-
tract for marketing their prunes
through thei, cooperative association
the growers made contract for sew
IL. years with their association. In
stead of signing 60 per cent or 70 per
cent of the prune growers of Cali
fornia, their association gained 80
per cent sign-up for the entire state.
T. S. Montgomery, president of the
Garden City Bank of California wrote
OF this cooperative marketing move
rent in his secticn: "The perpetua-
ton of the California Prune and Apri-
cot Growers Association is the very
foundation of our future prosperity.
It's discontinuance would be calam-
ity. Any grower who is too short
Of vision to look forward, should look
backward" and profit by experience" "
Looking backward in California
means looking backward from pros
perity to such debt ridden bondage
as our tobacco growers, with 60 per
cent of them loaded with mortgages
row labor under, and such poverty
as the cotton growers are enduring
today.
1t is no wonder that 80 per cent of
the prune growers signed the market
ing contract for seven years more
