closed so far as active solicitations is
concerned, all soliciting having been
discontinued on Saturday, May Is.
Contracts, however, on the potato deal
will be accepted by the Canyon county
farm bureau up to the evening of
May %. On that date the directors
of the Union convenes in Caldwell
and it is probable that they will close
the pool at once.
The sign-up campaign has been sue
cessful beyond all expectations. A
very determined fight was made
against the farm bureau in the CAM
paign to sign up the growers but in
stead of signing up 1000 acres as had
been anticipated the total sign up will
reach at least 5000 acres by the time
the campaign closes.

SAVE THE NAVY.

Congress is now trying to DESTROY
the army and the navy. To destroy
either is a crime against common
sense, patriotism, and courage. The
splneless sentimentalists have preach
ed paciflsm until congress imagines
that all causes of war have been de-
stroyed. How foolish. We are only
in a prolonged armistice. We are
just as sure of another war in or be-
tore 1880 as we are that the earth will
turn on its axis tomorrow. The
money is not wasted. If you want
economy put the army of inefficient
public officials in the first line trench
es and you will then relieve the coun-
try of quite a tax burden
We should save the army. How
ever, if congress destroys it we can
build another one more quickly than
we can build strong navy. Save the
navy at any cost. Send every con-

We should have navy of one hun
dred thousand trained men plus Off
GERS. This nation will never be able
to reduce or destroy it's navy. Water
on all sides and being world power
make big navy absolutely essential
to our peace, progress, and prosperity
If congress reduces our navy and
thereby destroys its world position
you then will have an unmistakable
proof that congress is composed oil

the Punkin Center town council.

SALTS If KIDNEYS
OR BLADDER BOTHER
Harmless to flush Kidneys and
neutralize irritating acids
Splendid for system.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to trritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation at
the neck of the bladder, obliging you
to seek relief two or three times dur
ing the night. The sufferer is in con-
slant dread, the water passes some
times with a scalding sensation and is
very profuse; again, there is difficulty
in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call 1t,
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments to
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in glass OF
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This Will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine SO it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands Of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes ne
bad effects whatever.
Here you have pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.-Adv.

concealed weapons and with 'resorting
to immoral places and practices" Her
chum, Liberty Nedeau. tried several
weeks ago on a charge of delinquency
is now under sentence to Beloit. Both
girls have been at liberty on bond.
Miss Bixby testified that after sew
eral words had passed between them,
the Lambotte girl had slapped her
face and produced a revolver from
her bosom, at the same time, threat

ferring to Shorty" whom none of the
girls seemed to know by his real name.
He was a stranger in Rossville, they
said.
Miss Nedeau was called as a wst-
ness by the state. She stated that
the Bixby girl had slapped Miss Lam

ALL Want PACTS
Italy and Belgium Anxious to
Join With England.
Lloyd George Wants Belgium
To Be Neutral Again.

Cannes Jan. 11-Premier Bonomi,
of Italy, today addressed communi-
cation to Premier Lloyd George OF
Great Britain. asking for treaty or
alliance between Italy and Great Brit
ain similar to that proposed by Britain
and France.
Premier Lloyd George is anxious to
have Belgium participate in the pro-
posed Anglo French alliance, but will
oppose her admission so long as she
retains her military alliance with
France, it was learned this afternoon.
Wants Belgium Neutral.
The British premier has suggested
to NJ. Jasper, Belgian minister, that
Belgium return to her pre-War status
of neutrality. The military alliance
with France was contracted since the
war and at about the same time that
France entered into a similar treaty
with Poland.
Premier Lloyd George drew up the
preamble to the proposed treaty stat
ing the conditions on which Britain
would enter the agreement and the
price of Britain to guarantee the soil
Of France Great Britain refused to
recognize the German Rhineland as
French soiP' and refused to guaran-
tee the territorial integrity of Poland.
Poland is from three to four times her
pre-war size. having taken territory
from Russia, Lithuania, Hungary and
Germany.
One British condition is avoidance
of naval competition. an issue which
arose from Frances demand for co.
600 tons of submarine craft in the
Washington conference. The threat
is made by Britain to open naval
building competition with France if
the latter nation insists on her sub
marine demands.
Another condition is that the French
agree to majority rule concerning the
Near East and other foreign affairs.
The British proposed Unanimous de-
cisions' regarding Europe's treatment
of the Turkish nationalists.
France recently contracted a treaty
with the Angora turkish national
ists) government against the wishes
of England. and the English govern
ment has lodged several formal pro-
tests with the French foreign office.

THEY DON'T LIKE JAILS
Evangehsts Disapprove of Conditions
Both of City and County.

DOtAl VI S1Ny NOubtys
The conditions in the city and
county jails in Topeka excited the
thoro disapproval of E. c. Mercer and
H. H. Hadley evangelists, who are
holding services at Grace Cathedral
this week.
Dean James P. Deb. Kaye, of the
cathedral, today received a letter from
the prisoners at the county Jail ask
ing that Mercer come down ard talk
to them.
Mercer and Had1ey started for the
county Jail in response to the letter,
and, by mistake, found their way into
the city Jail. Both men later eX-
pressed their joy at the error, and
said they W. re glad they did not evc..
have to visit the city jail long enough
to speak there.
The county JAIL where they spoke
to the prisoners later, was character
lied by Mercer as a disgrace to the
United States. He had reference par
ticularly to the manner in which al.
the prisoners, old and young. are cou-
fined in one cage together. THE first
Offenders who are confined in that
zcage with the other cases, cannot h elD
hIft-be worse off when they come ouC,"
Mercer said.
Mercer will speak at 10 o'clock
Thursday morning at WashbCrn coll

KANSAS HISTORICAL DISPLAY.
Local Grocery Store to Begin Series
of Exhibits Monday.

A portrayal of Kansas history from
1852 up to the present time will ap-
pear in the window of the Frasier
Brothers grocery store at Sixth and
Jackson street, beginning Monday.
The historical building at Pawnee
Flats, which housed the first legisla-

the state

point in Kansas legends will appear in
the window every day, and the an
sWer will also be given.
