"Tanlac is a grand medicine, and l

made recently by Mrs. AurOre Bar

kidney trouble, for l suffered almost
constantly from severe pains across
my back, just over the kidneys. When

if / attempted TO stoop over it just

l would get so weak and worn out

This condition made me awfully
nervous, so that l rarely ever slept
well at night, and every now and
then l would jump in my sleep, as if
in a fright, and my condition was
really becoming serious.
"Only two bottles of Tanlac have
brought about q wonderful change in

ALFALFA WEB WORM AGAIN

You have no doubt noticed the
water running earlier than usual
this year. Seems that everybody
realizes the danger and is using
very means available to stop dam
age.
One thing that may be encourag-
ed is that we have not been able to
find any eggs this year. George
Knutson Manager of the Great West
ern Sugar Company says the same
thing. The eggs may be there but
hard hunting by several have not
detected any. They might have been
parasitizzed by disease or other in
sects much like the grssshoppers in
1914. However it does not pay to
on that assumption. 1rrigate every
thing that can be soaked, run water

cover spring wheat, winter wheat

that there will be few more potatoes

EXCUSES
By DIR. w. q. BARTON

Any man Is a failure Who becomes
proficient in the habit Of inventing
good excuses.
Whether he ever uses the excuses
or not, he has already faileo by pro-
viding himself cushions to break his
fall. Wy
I know men who never accom-
plish anything except the invention
of good alibis. They can tell in ad-
vance just why the thing they have
undertaken never a be done. and
they come back with the thing un-
Cone, but with a convincing list of
good reasons why the thing was i'm
possible.
No man is good for much who
cannot do the impossible.
CowarGly Habit
No man is good for anything who
forms the cowardly habit of excusing
his own failures.
There is a thrilling moment in
the drama of Richelieu when the old
and apparently defeated cardinal,
fighting his apparently hopeless bat
tie against a weak but stubborn king

The boy undertook the expedition
and said, "And If I fail" But the

But it was not so much the action OF the court
in ordering a rehearing in the fare matter az
it was the language used by the supreme court
justice in setting forth his opinion that has
aroused public Indignation. There is every
reason to believe that the Public Utility Com
mission is conscientiously trying to do the right
thing in settling the fare question once for all.
To have its motives attacked and its integrity
questioned in such a manner could not help but
cause resentment.
1t was natural that the Public Utility Com
mission should appeal from the decision Of the
supreme court and request the calling together
Of the court of errors and appeals to decide the
issue that has arisen between the utility COM
! mission and the supreme court, and, incidentally,
determine whether rate making for a public
utility was a legislative or judicial matter.
But Chancellor Walker, who presides over
the court of errors and appeals, has declined
to call the court together. He says It is
physically impossible to do SO now. To disturb
ali the judges who are away on their vacations
and make them hurry back to Trenton in the
heat of the summer would be a hardship, of
course. What of it if the supreme court does

and regardless of the fact that such an i'm
portant issue as a ten-cent fare, affecting thou
sands of wage-earners who have to work
whether it is hot or not. is at stake, the Judges
OF the court q errors and appeals simply must
not be disturbed during the warm weather.
Thus does the Public Service Corporation
score again. Because Chancellor Walker re-
fuses to call the court OF errors and appeals
together the Public Utility Commission must
reopen the temporary rate hearing again and,
If the instructions of the supreme court is
obeyed, grant the trolley company an increased
fare.
The question naturally arises, why is the
Public Utility Commission? If, after lengthy
hearings and much elaboration. the men who
make UP this commission are incapable of
determining a fair rate to be charged for riding
on a trolley car, what is the use of paying them
s12, 900 a year each for just such work? With
all due respect to the bench, we believe that
IL e men who make up the present utility board
are possessed of just as much honesty and
integrity as any other appointments the gov
ernor makes, whether judicial or not.
By this direct interference with the work of
IH0 1uUuC Olluty AL CloA VI "a
discredited corporation, and by the refusal to
call together the highest tribunal to render a
final decision, thereby leaving the Public Service
Corporation with the upper hand with no re-
dress for the public, the courts have deliberately
invited a criticism that cannot help but reflect
upon the states whole judicial system, and
may have far-reaching consequences.
