DRINK WATER WHEN
KIDNEYS HURT YOU
Take Glass of Salts if Your

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it may mean you have been eating
foods which create acids. says a we'll
known authority. An excess Of such
acids overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter it from the blood and
they become sort of paralyZed and
loggy. When your kidneys get slug
gish and clog you must relieve them,
like you relieve your bowels, remov-
ing all the body's urinous waste. else
you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours,
tongue is coated, and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges.
Either consult a good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces Of Jad
Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys may then act
fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for years to help clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize acids in the system, so
they no longer irritate, thus often
relieving bladder weakness.

Boom of Ex-Governor of
Illinois as Presidential
Timber, Seen.
BIZ United Press


CHICAGO, Nov. 26.-Boom of
Frank o. Lowden, former Governor
of Illinois, as presidential timber, is
expected to be materially advanced
here Dec. 6-S at the annual winter
meeting of the American Farm bu-
reau federation.
Lowden has definitely accepted an
invitation to be the principal speak
err at the gathering, federation lead
ers have announced, and this circum-
view of his advocacy Of farm relief
measures.
President Coolidge last year oc-
cupied the position Lowden is slated
to hold at the coming session of farm
bureau leaders. and it is commonly
admitted the Presidents acts In re-
lation to farm legislation are not
pleasing to the Midwestern group
which dominates the federation.
Discussion of plans for weakening
resistance of Congress to pleas of
the Midwest for Government assist
ance in agriculture will be the prin-
cipal topic of discussion at the ses-
sion. Federation leaders in Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska Oklahoma,
Kansas and Missouri are understood
to be organizing prior to the conven-
ton and will report progress at the
meeting.
Although federal farm relief meas
ures supported by the bureau have
gone down to definite defeat twice,
leaders are confident that a leglsla-
tive pulmotor can be applied sue
cessfully.
To further plans to assemble the
largest possible number of farmers
in the interest of Lowden's candi
dacy and reviving the McNary-
l'Haugen BILL the bureau has inten-
tionally included social program
of unprecedented proportions for the
winter meeting. 1t is planned to
intersperse the discussion Of serious
problems of the bureau with a lib
eral portion of entertainment.

al exposition, which the organization
intends to make an annual affair,

an dthe same domestic market which
has made grapes profitable.
Now thousands of Otsego farmers
who left their land and moved to
cities are eager to return. Many al
ready have gone back. Others, still
suspicious of the hop market, have
formed a corporation whics has
taken over LOO acres to be devoted
to hop culture. o.
II conditions are favorable, this
corporation expects to increase its
acreage six times the original size
in 1927. The hops were planted early
Nthis year and will be ready for pick
ing next summer.
The farmers of the region are
watching the experiment closely. If
the market continues to offer profits
to the farmers, the Ostego County
hop industry soon will be as flourish
ing as ever.
