Cooperating with the Department
Of Justice, representatives of the soil
survey furnished expert testimony in
a case involving the changing Of state
boundaries during the past year. A
detailed map was made Of the soils
Of the Red river bottoms, In the vi
cinity OF the ~Burkburnett oil field, for
the purpose Of showing the process by
which the bottoms were built up, this
fact having an important bearing on
the settlement of u boundary dispute
between Texas and Oklahoma. The
question as 10 whether the land in con
troverSy was formed by accretion or.
by avulsion would practically decide
the issue, and consequently extremely
detailed soil maps, profile maps of
deep boringS, and careful mechanical
analyses Of material were necessary
in order TO determine the presence or
absence of a graduation from coarse to
finer alluvial sediments from the edge
of the bottoms toward the uplands.

Big Gain Last Year.

A 50-cent gain in tomato shipments
in 1922, compared with movement of
the previous year, shows the increas-
ing demand for this product. Average
shipments have been less than $4,000
cars per year, but during the past sea
son 10000 cars were forwarded. In
view Of the growth of this industry, ii
is becoming increasingly important
that producers and shippers use only
the most approved methods of har-
yesting, packing, grading and loading,
which are described in Farmers Bull
letin 1921.
This publication points out that
there are three stages Of maturity at
which tomatoes may be picked, de-
pending largely on the distance they
must travel before being placed on
sale. Mature green tomatoes, or
wraps" constitute the bulk of
shipments from Florida and other
states in the southern tier. Pink to-
matoes, or those which are turning"
come chiefly from southern Illinois and
sometimes from Texas and Tennessee,
whereas ripe tomatoes go TO nearby
markets in the southern sections and
comprise the bulk Of shipments from
Missouri, Ohio and New Jersey.
The necessity for care in picking, in
field handling, in sorting and in pack
ing is emphasized in this new bulletin.
The author says that 1.-THE interior
of the picking utensil should be in
spected carefully and all sharp edges,
nail points, and rough surfaces

SOUR STOMACH IS
CAUSED BY ACIDS

Stay off the damp ground, avoid ex
posure keep feet dry eat no sweets
of any kind for a while, drink lots of
water and ABOVE all take a spoonful
of Jad Salts occasionally to help keep
down uric and toxic acids.
Rheumatism Is caused by poison
toxins. called acids, which are gene
rated in the bowels and absorbed into
the blood. 1t IS the function of the
kidneys to filter this acid from the
blood and cast 1t out in the urine. The
pores of the skin are also a means of
freeing the blood Of this impurity.
In damp and chilly, cold weather the
skin pores are closed, thus forcing the
kidneys to do double work; they be-
come weak and sluggish and fail to
eliminate this poison, which keeps ac-
cumulating and circulating through
the system, eventually settling in the
joints and muscles, causing stiffness,
soreness and pain, called rheumatism.
At the first twinge Of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four
ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon
full in a glass Of water and drink be-
fore breakfast each morning for a
week. This is helpful to neutralize
acidity, remove body waste also to
stimulate the kidneys. thus helping to
rid the blood of these rheumatic
poisons.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is
made from the ac3d of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
is used with excellent results by
thousands OF folks who are subject
to rheumatism. -Advertisement.

CURTAILMENT Of
STREET PROGRAM,
ELLIOTT WARNING
City Engineer Tells Cabinet
Meeting of Increasing
Costs,

On account of steadily increasing
prices of material and labor, the city's
street improvement program outlined
at the beginning Of Mayor Shanks
administration will be materially cut
down this year, John L. Elliott, city
engineer, told heads Of the city de-
partments at a cabinet meeting today.
The question arose when Charles
F.. Coffin, president of the board Of
works. said a large number of reso-
buttons and petitions for improved
streets were being acted on and that
ne expected a larger building program
than usual this year. In general ma
terial is 16 per cent higher and it is
impossible to get enough labor in my
department for the money the city
is willing to pay" Elliott said.
Property Value Lower
While labor and material prices
have increased property value has
decreased which means the cheaper
property in the city will not stand the
levy for improved streets" Elliott
said. Under the new resurfacing law
Elliott predicted much of the work
Of resurfacing streets that had been
standing for several years can now
be accomplished.
Market House Issue
That action looking toward build
ing a new market house or repairing
the old one would be taken immediate
ly was indicated when Controller
Hogue. acting mayor, asked a joint
meeting of the board cs safety, board
Of works and city council be held on
the subject.
Taylor Z. Groninger, corporation

ment report bad street conditions IN
order to eliminate damage suits.
