POOR BUSINESS FOR THESE
GOOD FOR THE REST OF US

Few people have been dying in
the state this winter. This is the
report of undertakers and of sales
men who sell to undertakers. The
number of deaths has not even
been up to the average for sum-
mer time, when usually the death
rate is a mere fraction of that in
the winter. Even though the fall
was warm and open and some
folks complained that everyone
would be sick, the general health
has beer good, and now that win
ter has really come there has been
no change in the health situation.

RECLAMATION PROBERS HEAR
TROUBLES OF MONTANANS

Facts pertaining to the reclamation
projects in Montana were laid before
the government fact-finding commits
sion in Salt Lake recently by farmers
from the Huntley, Sun River and Milk
River reclamation districts. While
considerable umbrage was manifest at
the opening Of the session there is
every evidence that the government
commission and the project farmers
will arrive at some definite program
that will greatly aid the districts under
question.
]. Homer Hancock, secretary of the
Huntley irrigation district, stated thai
che project was $4,000 in arrears be-
cause the annual levy for operation
and maintenance had been too low and
a deficit had accumulated. Another
reason for the deficit was that a large
sum had been spent in drainage. He
recommended as a relief program that
A 4O-year payment period be estab-
lished.
The deficit be removed by the gov
eminent.
All money from penalties to revert
to that project and not to the general
service.
Profits from sale of townsites to go
to the project and not to the general
fund.
Adjustment of taxes, whereby the
settler pays only what he actually
owns and has paid for.
Mr.. Hancock cited some improve
ments on the prospect which he termed
Improperly chosen and constructed.'
J. L. Truscott, president of the
Lower Milk River Water Users asso-
citation, discussed the statement which
had been filed by delegates from the
project last week. He told briefly the
bad financial condition of the farmers
in the district, and stated that many
have walked off and the wild growth
has again taken what babe fair to be
fertile farm land"
Later he added that under the pres
conditions, 'the government can't
give the land away"
He stated that the project was
completed and that there was consider
able faulty construction there.
lie recommended l1dl the ScIlleIo
be given 40 years to pay for the water
and that all instances where the re-
clamation service made engineering
mistakes should be checked and the
costs of the mistakes taken from the
cost to the settlers.
Samuel Ness, chairman of the water
Users association of the Greenfield
division of the Sun River project, criti-
,ized a letter which D. w. Davis, re-
.lamation commissioner, wrote to HUI
,ert Work, secretary of the interior,
concerning a petition which the water
lsers had sent Mr.. Davis, as mislead-
ng. He said 1S5 settlers, Nad sent a
to Commissioner Davis, and in
this letter to Secretary Work,
DR.. Davis had commented upon the
of system in handling crops and
ave this as one reason for the failure
f the project. Mr.. Ness insited that
he settlers had attempted to meet
onditions by every way known to
hem, and had been generally unsuc-

If Back Hurts
Begin On Salts
Flush Your Kidneys Occasionally by
Drinking Quarts Of Good
Water.

No man or woman can make a mis-
take by flushing the kidneys occa-
sionally, says q well-known authority.
Too much rich food creates acids
which clog the kidney pores so that
they sluggishly filter or strain only
part Of the waste and poisons from
the blood. Then you get sick. Rheu-
matism, headaches, liver trouble, ner-
vousness, Constipation, dizziness,
sleeplessness, bladder disorders often
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in
the kidneys, or your back hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take ia
blespoonful in glass of water before
breakfast for few days and your kid
neys may then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid Of grapes and lemon Juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for years to help flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to activity
also to help neutralize the acids in the
system so they no longer cause irri?
tation, thus often relieving bladder
disorders.

MUST PAY 4 PER CENT
ON INCOME OF 1923

TACOMA, Feb. According to
Burns Poe, collector of thermal reve-
nue., there are being received returns
of income for the year 1928 comput-
ed in accordance with the proposed
amendment to the existing law to re-
duce the normal tax rate from and
8 to 8 and per cent, and embracing
other proposed changes. The gov
ernment's answer in such cases is
that the tax on income for the year
1923 is being collected under the rev.
enue act of 1921, which is still in ef-
feet, and which provides a normal
tax rate of 4 per cent on the first
81, 900 of net income in excess Of the
exemption and credits and 8 per cent
on the remaining net income. Tax
must therefore be computed at this
rate and not at the rates proposed in
the bill now pending before Congress.
