However. they found spot where the

pitched their tent across the brook,

FOR CONSTIPATION
She Lost 10 Pounds
of Fat in Fl Days

During October a woman in Mon
tana wrote-"My first bottle of
Kruschen Salts lasted almost 4
weeks and during that time lost 10
pounds of fat-Kruschen is all you
claim for it feel better than I
have for years."
Here's the recipe that banishes fat
and brings into blossom all the nat
ural attractiveness that every woman
possesses.
Every morning take one half tea
spoonful of Kruschen Salts in a glass
of hot water before breakfast.
Be sure and do this every morning
for ITS the little daily dose that
takes off the fat."-Don't miss a
morning. The Kruschen habit means
that every particle of poisonous waste
matter and harmful acids and gases
are expelled from the system.
At the same time the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels are toned up and
the pure, fresh blood containing Ma
lures six life-giving salts is carried
to every organ, gland, nerve and fibre
of the body and this is followed by
"that Kruschen feeling" of energetic
health and activity that is reflected
in bright eyes, clear skin, cheerful
vivacity and charming figure.
If you want to lose fat with speed
get an Soc bottle of Kruschen Salts
from any live druggist anywhere in
America with the distinct under
standing that you must be satisfied
with results or money back.

CITE BIG BENEFITS
PENDING RESEARCH BILL

How to build and maintain suitable
country roads at low cost is one of
the important questions that will re-
ceive attention by state engineering
experiment stations if Congress ap-
proves a bill which is now consider
ing to provide funds for research in
the fundamental engineering phases
of agricultural and rural problems.
The bill has been introduced by Sena-
tor McNary and Representative Gil
bert N. Haugen, chairmen of the
committees on agriculture in their
respective branches of Congress.
If passed, the bill would result in
far-reaching benefits to the North
west, according to Dean w. c. Coffey
of the department of agriculture of
the University of Minnesota; Dean
o. M. Leland of the college of engin-
eering and architecture; Prof. VIM.
Boss, chief of the division of agricul-
tural engineering, and other leaders.
In pointing out possible benefits
from investigational work such as
that proposed by the bill, Dean Coffey
stressed particularly the need for
finding more economical materials
and methods for making country
roads that will provide year-around
accessibility from farm to market.
This is of equal interest to farmers
and townsmen, he said, since COM
mercial establishments are rapidly
extending their delivery services and
other contacts to the country, and
towns-people generally are taking
more and more to the open road.
Research of the sort contemplated
in the proposed program would also
aid greatly in solving problems exist
ing in connection with the disposal
of creamery wastes, the greater use
of electricity on the farm, the reduc-
ton of costs Of production through
the use of power and equipment, the
commercial processing of fruits and
vegetables, and the utilization of
agricultural wastes, he asserts.
The bill now before Congress aims
to do for research in the mechanic
arts what previous legislation has
done for research in the crop and an
imal phases of agriculture, Dean Lee
land points out. Funds used for
such research already have resulted
in findings of inestimable value to
agriculture, he says, and the posi-
bilities indicate that similar benefits
may be derived from corresponding
effort along engineering lines.

ANNOUNCE CHANGES IN
DAIRY SHORT COURSES

Creamery workers who enroll for
the six weeks Creamery Operators
Short Course sponsored by the dairy
division at University Farm, st. Paul
henceforth will be required to furnish
evidence that they have completed an
eighth grade education or its equival-
ent or else must pass an entrance ex-
animation, according to Prof. w. B..
Combs, who has charge of dairy short
courses. In addition, all applicants
for the above course must show proof
that they have had at least one years
experience in a creamery.
Another important change that has
been adopted by the dairy division
with reference to it's short courses is
that the length of the Advanced But
termarkers' and Creamery Managers
short course will be reduced from 10
days to six days. Instead of being
given in the winter or spring, this
course will now be presented in the
fall, the dates this year being Octo-
Der 6 to II. Notwithstanding this
curtailment, the course will include
practically all of the work formerly
given, Professor Combs explains.
The changes outlined were adopt
ed mainly because of requests made
by the directors of the Minnesota
Creamery Operators and Managers
association. The educational and ex-
narionco rou,,;rod for tho civ xuookc,
course were believed necessary be-
cause many of the men taking this
course seek more responsible posi-
tions soon after completing the work.
The changes in the duration and
dates upon following the circulation
of a QUESTIONABLE in which creamery
men expressed a decided preference
for a somewhat shorter course, CIV

drove to Worthington recently to
look over the sanitorium plant at
that city, and to gather data on the
district proposition as it affects Wa

the plant is a fine one and in the
opinion of some of the board at least
offers the best chance for that county
to get into a sanitorium district. The
cost to the county of joining the
Worthington district would be $780,
900, but this would be much cheaper
than going into a new district and
erecting a new plant.
