IF Eat less meat and take a giass of Salts to flash oat Kidneys Drink plenty water. Urlo acid In meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy ; the bladder is irri tated, and you may be obliged to eeek re lief two or three tunes during the night When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body's urinous waste or you'll be a real sick person shortly. At first you feel a dull misery in the kid ney region, you suffer from backache, sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu matic twinges when the weather is bad. Bat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoon ful in a glass of water before 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 generation to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts iB inexpensive, cannot in jure; makes a delightful effervescent lrthia water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists hero say they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble. BACKACHY KIDNEYS BOTHER COUNTY AGENT FARMER'S AGEH POSSIIULITIES ARE , GREATER THROUGH CO-OPERATION. Three Chief Essentials Govern Edu cational Efforts. BY PAUL H. SPILLMAN. " (County Agent for Union County.) The county agent movement while not entirely new to people that have kept themselves posted on agricul tural affairs, still it is of comparative ly recent origin. Beginning in the south when (the cotton howl weevil was fast putting the cotton crops out of commission, the movement has spread both North and West, until we have at tue present time some eleven hundred county agents in the United States. Never in1 the history of agri culture has any movement for the betterment of agriculture and , the farm home spread with such rapidity. Never has a movement of this nature received so few backsets. It lias filled or is fast filling that long felt want, that lacking something that has ex isted between the farm and science, ever since scientific agriculture came into being. Ever since the agricultural, colleges and experiment stations have come into being, they havo been accumulat ing much agricultural information that would mean the solving of many of the fnrm probloms that now are stumbling blocks to those who must take their living from the soil. The problem has been to cet this knowl edge to the farmer in a form that will be of use to Ihim. Often what appears on the printed page to be unnpplica- ble or out of the question for the or dinary farmer, is but a comparativelv simple matter. These facts must be so placed before the farmer that he 1 can see whore in they aiply to his ; conditions and further, where in tfto solution ottered will be of ultimate benefit to him. It has that there Ul no hotter medium tn n-nh this infmmin. ! tion before the farmer than through . the personal contact between line ' people on the land and the County ; Agent, he being in a position to point ; out to them where in these investiga- tions apply to their conditions, and how and to what extent the remedy offered will apply under their condi tions. Secondly tihe county agent is a med ium through which successful agri-, cultural practice within the county may be brought to others under simi lar conditions within that county. Thirdly, the County Agent is tryintr wherever possible to help the farm ers do collectively what they cannot do individually. To help in the organ ization of a community in fighting various pests, or securing better live stock, or of better buying and selling. In other words, it is the County Agent's object to help the farmers to ! help themselves. ' , . ' But let it be remembered, 'that the 1 farmers can not do it all neither can ! the County Agent do it all; we must strike a happy medium, and that is co-operate. i WILSON WANTS MARSHALL President Said to Desire Hoosier as Running-Mate Again New York, Feb. 9. A Washington dispatch to the New York Press says: President Wilson, it was learned from a trusworthy source has issued orders to his political lieutenants to stop all talk of shelving Thomas R. Marshall, of Indiana, in favor of a new Vice-Presidential candidate, which means the Administration ticket in St Louis will be that which was named in Baltimore in 1912. Significance attaches to the Presi dent e reported instructions to his lieu tenants for two reasons, first, because according to gossip here, they rep'o sent a change of views; second, the announcement reaches Democrats co incident with Wilson's return from tbo West. It is beliovcd they aro base J on information tlu-.t came to the Presi dent when on his speaking tour. Certainly it is, Democrats say, the recent attitude of men close to the President gave no information he would insist, as it now is said he dies on having the Indiana man again an a running mate. The tfriendb of Jalmes Hamilton Lewis, United States Senator from Ill inois, have been promoting a Vico Precider.t.al boom for him, nnd nrt, reports si.y, without aid from White House circles. Presumably an ef fectual siuffer will bo put on the Lewi a movement. Wilson':: change of heart, if it is a change of heart, is attributed to the exigencies of the Democratic situa tion in Indiana in part, and in part alno to his conviction from what he learned on his preparedness tour that it would be a waste of time to bid fo" the electoral votes of Illinois. Palmer to Lead Democratic Fight. Philadelphia. Feb. 17. Former Con gressman A. Mitchell Palmer will again lead the democratic fight in Pennsylvania during the coming pres idential campaign. He took the Teins following a conference here of State leaders. At the same time he an nounced he would again be a candidate for National Committeeman. At the conference it also was decided that either Secretary of Labor Williams B. Wilson nor E. J. Lynctt, of Scranton, would be the choice for United States Senator. The conference was called to discuss the entire State democratic situation. The question of delegates to the National convention was threshed out and it was decided to ap point a steering committee to decide upon th" delegates at large.
