BAD BACK ToDAY7

Backache is usually kidney ache and makes you dull. nervous and tired. Use Doan's Kidney Pills for weak kidneys-the rem edy recommended by your friends and neighbors. ASK your neigh bor!
 Chas. A. Mulvenon, GurIey & Granite Sts., Prescott. Arizona, says: ''I was a railroad man for s several years and being continu- ally shaken up on the trains put my kidneys out of order. My back was so lame, l could hardly go. Bending over was impossible and when 1 tried it. sharp pains would catch me in my back. My kid- neys were badly disordered. They acted unnaturally. I certainly felt out of sorts when I began us- ing Doan's Kidney Pills, but they soon fixed me up in good shape. 1 always can recommend Deans, because 1 know they are all right. ''
 Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidne remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills, the same that Mir. Mulvenon had. Foster MiIburn Co.,, Mfgrs. Buff falo. N. Y.

FOOD GOING TO WASTE.

Tons of wild rice, as nourishing as the cultivated kind and obtain able for harvesting, is going to waste in marshes of the Northwest. The only persons using it as food are a few Indians and the city epi- cures who have it served with wild game dishes. It is on sale in prob ably half dozen places in the Northwest.
 Wild rice is hard to get at and difficult to harvest. The Indians get it by paddling through swamps and knocking heads and kernels into sheir canoes. They parch the rice in kettles over fire of red coals and then shake it vigorously in blankets to loosen the chaff.

PULvERIzED COTTON.

It is announced from France, says Popular Mechanics Magazine, that five or six factories there are en- gagged in the industry of pulverizing cotton and wool for several quite di- verse applications. Very finely pow dered cotton is used as a Altering material for clarifying certain solu- tions that are difficult to filter, such as collodion. It is also used in the manufacture of photograph records, insulators and decorative fabrics.

MARRIED AFTER FIFTY YEARS
tury to Wed the Sweetheart of His Childhood.

A boy and girl romance which be- gan 50 years ago, during the reign of the third Napoleon, ended hap oily in London register office re- gently when Duke de la Chatre, a member of an old French family, married the widow of British dra- goons officer, Mrs. Digby Went worth, a pretty woman with slightly fading hair. The age of both bride and bridegroom is given as sixty five.
 Mrs. Wentworth's first husband was Capt. William Digby Went worth, Seventh dragon guards. The duke and Mrs. Wentworth were playmates in childhood, and as years passed the early friendship con- tinued. It was while the duke, who is a great traveller, was abroad that Mrs. Wentworth met and fell in love with Captain Wentworth. They were married and came to live in England. The duke, who remained bachelor, maintained affection for his early playmate and recently met Mrs. Wentworth again in London.

IDENTIFICATION MARKa.

An important adjunct to crime detection is reported from Paris. This new plan supplements the Der. tillon system of measurements and fngerprints. It has been found that a man can be traced not by finger prints alone but by marks on any part of the body. Any of the pores of the skin may be employed. This is the discovery of Doctor Locard, head of the French police school at Lyons. Criminals often use gloves to foil detectives, but the forearm or the elbow may give print equally as valuable for identification.

CHICAGO GRAINS
AND PROVISIONS

Chicago, ILL.,, June 21--Drought in
the domestic spring crop belt and al
so in France did much to stimulate
buying of wheat today and cause
prices to ascend. The market closed
strong. 2hc to 4Ac net higher with
July $1.2sls to sl.20 and September
s1.23 to s1.l3i4. Corn gained &C to 1hc
and oats &c to 1c. In provisions the
outcome was unchanged to zoe higher.
Bulish sentiment in wheat was
given its first impetus by leading
authority VINO reported from Aberdeen.
S. d., that fields were firing badly and
that in soma places the crop had been
destroyed Ivy drought. He asserted also
that wheat was heading very short
and would not recover with rain. The
fact that the New York stock market
was rallyius from yesterdays acute
weakness tended further to lift wheat
values. which in the late dealings how
ever derived strength to much
greater degree from gossip that
drought in france was the worst since
1853. Talk was current too that ex-
Meanwhile, disappointing threshins re-
turns continued from the southwest
and from Illinois, Indiana and Ohio
and it was generally admitted that the
movement of new wheat was slow in
getting under way.
Apprehension of damage by drought
was largely responsible for the
strength of corn and oats.
Provisions averaged higher with hogs
and grain.

IMPROVED
ROADS
ROAD CONSTRUCTION in 1920
Cost Was About Twice as Much as in
1917 on Account OF Distinct
Shortage of Labor.

prepared by the U. S. Department of
Agric1lture.)
Every kind of road cost about twice
as much to build in 1920 as it did in
1917, according to the chief Of the
bureau of public roads, United States
Department of Agriculture, and high
way construction suffered more than
any other class of work through rail
road congestion, strikes, labor troubles
and material shortages.
After the war there was a great
public demand for improved roads.
Many roads had been seriously dam
aged by war traffic, and it appeared
that the return of men from military
service would provide an abundance
Of labor. The army of laborers which
was expected to apply for the work
did not, however, materialize. On the
contrary. there was a distinct shortage

this world you can say "Take the bur-
den on thy shoulders" Don't let your
child grow up in ignorance.
Now, there is one other thought
you have heard of the great old ex-
preston SIN union there is strength" "
We want to say there must be union
in two ways. There must be a union
in labor and union in spirit. Rob
either of the other and you have no
union. Now, you have got two things,
you have labor on one hand and cap
ital on the other. What is a mans
capital without labor and what is la
bor without capital? They are both
equally important as much as and as
dependent upon one another as the
lungs in our body, even more so for
it is said that man can live while
with only one lung. That is the way
the whole matter stands. Let US have
harmony always, live in harmony
with the people you work for and
with, and if you do that we will all
be better people and much better

Well Kept Roadside Where Weeds
Are Controlled by Frequent
Moving.

Of labor, and wages reached the high
est levels attained in the history Of
the country. In 1917, competent labor
could be secured for from S1.50 to So
per day, but the corresponding wages
in 1920 were from So to SIS for short
er days work.
In proportion to this demand there
was also pronounced scarcity of con-
struction materials. Sand, gravel.
stone, and cement. and materials COM
monty used in road work increased in
price between, 1917 and 1920 from 30
to 100 per cent. Naturally, these in
creases in cost were reflected in the
prices paid to contractors for road
work. Gravel roads increased from
s4535 to $3.50 per mile; concrete
from S21, ,165 to upward Of $4,000 per
mile, and brick roads from $4,000 TO
S55,OOO per mile.
AS funds available for road con-
struction are largely limited by stat
ute, or by the returns from taxation.
a majority of the states this year have
deliberately withheld work, the plans
for which had been completed, until
they could obtain greater return for
their expenditure.

useful size Of lot is one acre to 25
sheep. This area, on an average, fur
nished in experiments IA days feed.
Arranging the size Of lots on the
basis of one acre to 25 sheep is more
satisfactory than seeding larger areas
and using hurdles to permit advance
to fresh feed each day. Less labor is
necessary, and by going to entirely
new ground after ten or twelve days
the danger of picking up parasite
larvae on ground grazed over earlier
is prevented. With a one-acre lot for
25 ewes, or correspondingly larger
ones ior larger flocks, it is an added
advantage If their length is two or
three times the breadth.
With a heavy crop Of forage that
would last longer than was considered
safe to hold the flock on the same
ground, a short piece Of cross fence
can readily be put down to divide the
pasture into two parts. The smaller
lots are also convenient with purebred
focks to provide for the separate pas
turing of smaller lots of ram and
eve lambs.
Movable fencing is not likely to be
satisfactory for the outside-lot fences
unless the whole area to be used lies
in long strip with side fences, when
only two end pieces need to be in place
at one time for the ground being
grazed.
