Why consider 'subjecting
yourself to the hardships of
homesteading, the "red tape"
of "proving up", the handi
caps of high altitude, frost,
poor water, and untried soil
and isolation from the con
veniences of civilization,
when you can get a tract of
Palmer Lands at these
terms and prices- and live in
a settled and proven com
munity, within 3 to 5 miles
of a railroad, where there is
plenty of rain fall and good
water, an ideal climate
unexcelled soil.

Baker Boozers Fined.
Baker, Aug. 1. Parties by the
name of Owen and Cloud yesterday
pleaded guilty in police court to the
charge of taking liquor to the public
park Sunday afternoon and drinking
it there. They were fined $25 each,
which was paid, and Owen was fined
an additional $5 for starting a fight.
That the men and others involved
with them secured whiskey some
where from bootleggers was appar
ent, but the stories were so conflicting
that City Attorney McCollocih; did not
feel justified in filing charges at this
time. Information gained from the
men may result in further investiga
tion from which tangible information
may develop.
Lieut. Bryan, U. S. N.
stated before the Am.
Soc. of Naval Engineers:
"Oils made from the asphalt-base
crudes have shown
themselves to be much better
adapted to motor cylinders, as far
as their carbon-forming proclivi
ties are concerned, than are parat-fine-base
Pennsylvania oils.

No man or woman who eats meat regu
larly can make a mistake by flushing the
kidneys occasionally, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms urie acid which
excites the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headacheB, liver trouble.
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness ana
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in the
kidneys or your back hurts or if tlio
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi
ment, irrecrulnr of pasnage or attended by
a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat
and get about four ounces of-Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in a few days your kidneys
will act fine. This famous salts is made
from the aeid of Trapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been uxed
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
.Tad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
litliia-watcr drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications.

Baker Plans Highway Signs.
Baker, Aug. 1. Judgo Mcssick
stated yesterday that at the August
term of county court, which convenes
tomorrow, the matter of establishing
sign posts on all county roads will be
taken up. "We have been considering
the purchase of metal signs for the
county roads, to show distances and
also to serve as a guide in directing
tourists and those unfamiliar with the
roads and where they lead. The main
reason why we have not secured metal
signs sooner is because none or the
samples submitted have met with the
approval of the court. Under an old
state law, road supervisors are re
quired to establish sign posts in their
districts, and some have compiled,
