EARLY "SPBO" BEARISH INDICATION OF ' EASTERN COR- NER APPARENT OFTEN, t ; Shortage In the East Great Bnt Price . Not Unusually High. Early reports that the 'demand for potatoes would be brisk all fall and winter have to be amended somewhat inasmuch as the call for this vegeta ble ,' has not been strong , enough to bolster up the early predictions. That there has been a great shortage in the middle west cannot be denied but the fact that the price is so good has evidently induced those who have po tatoes to sell, to get them on the market as soon as possible. : For this reason the market is well supplied ! and the outlook for an early break in the price upward is not looked for. Michigan had a fair crop and most of these are being dumped on the mar ket to the exclusion of those from the western states. As .long as there is a fair supply local shippers cannot look for anything like extra good' prices, because of the ("istance. For this lea-' son local buyers are strong all of their purchases for the present in the hepe that the market will climb to off set the greater freight rates. "'; Whether there is a combination to comer tho market cannot be' ascer tained with any degree of certainty, but it would seem that some such re striction was being exercised because the government's report on the short- ago of potatoes in the r -idle west could have- no other conclusion than that some pressure was being exerted ;to .keep, the 'price down, just as the i price on apples was kept down iast : yean' Just . how! the scales- will turn ! cannot be predicted and local men are in a quandary to; reconcile their for : mer statements with the -present condition.- '. ' . ' Hay is strong and should be strong- ! e'r owirie- to the ereat shortage in the ihav crowinc" belts. But'-this factor mav have something to do with the 'case, viz: the sale of cattle t-) the meat packers, irrespective" of their j condition; Many of the farmers are unable to carry their slock over the winter on account of the shortage of fodder and not require hay. Just how far one thing in this respect will out weigh yte other "cannot beestimated ff hnnrl. - But it is likely that dur- ing the 'first montfls' of spring, or eyen earlier the price is bound to climb and hold at top notch figure! " ; Tomatoes are hanging on manfully this fall, and' though past the season, the local grocers have a few for sale occasionally; The price has gortf to 90 cents but even at that figure, the commodity has come to be a luxury for tomatoes are hard to get at any figure. ; The last vestage 01 tne cu cumber is. gone too. . ., v "If any family is inclined to buy up a store of cabbage, it would be a bus iness move to buy them now for cab bage is credited with' being on the rise shortly. They are still selling at two cents, but this may not last long. Market quotations today are: BUTTER AND EGGS. Fresh ranch eeirS 40c.

' N5 man-or ypman who cast meat regularly. can. make . a mistake by flushing the. kidneys occasionally, says a well, known. -'authority.. Meat forms uijic acid which clogs the kidney pores so they slugfjishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood,, then you get sick. Nearly all rhumatism, headaches, liver trou ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from' sluggish kidney?. , , The moment you feel, a dull.ache in the kidneys or your back hurts,rOr if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of .scaltfTng, get; about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy, and take a tablespoonful in a glaBS of water be fore breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will, then act fine. This famous salts, is made from the acid of grapes and lemon, juice, combined with lithia and has been used for genera tions to flush , clogged kidneys and st imulate the mto atcivity. also to neu tralize the acids in urine so it no lon Rcr causes irritation, thus ending blad der disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful . efferves cent lithia-water drink which alk reg ular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications. But Mrs. Pank will have to be some smasher to take, the place of tho late Carrie Nation in the hearts of the American people. ON SALTS i Classified FRATERNAL OKDJEK8. X.F.& A. ,M.
