cause. Use buchu leaves, juniper oil,
ETC., to flush out excess acids and i'm
purities which causes irritation that
results in restless nights, burning,
scanty flow, frequent desire, or back

Mr.. Edward j. Clarke,
Editor Worcester Democrat
Dear Sir:
AS a subscriber to your valued
paper and to your outspoken opinion
of the vital issues that effect the in
terest of your readers, I hope you will
publish this letter as I have found
you are one who believes in living
up to the tradition of a free press.
And when you announced that, begin
ming with the new year, you would
add farm supplement to your paper,
I was curious to know if it would be
in keeping with your standard of dis
cussion, adding it as a special agri-
cultural feature only farmers would
be interested in.
I am sure as many other readers
as farmers will read the supplement
There has come turning point with
affairs of the farmers with the void
ing of the Triple A. It's not ques-
ton Of raising crops as much as what
the general public, the people, will
decide is the best solution of the prob
lem.
The issues are being discussed in
the supplement and as the farmers
and local readers see the situation,
there will be closer union between
the paper, the supplement, the agri-
cultural aid and the rest of the citi-
zenry.
Hoping the tradition of the past will
be carried forward with the new adj
dition, I remain
