GIVE "SYRUP OF FIGS" TO C0N8TIPATED CHILD Delicious "Fruit Laxative" can't harm tender little Stomach, liver and bowels. Experts of Department of Agriculture Have Taken Lead In Campaign That Is Being Waged by Government. To admit the existence of wnste In agricultural products," said Secretory of Agriculture Houston In a recent ud dress, "is to admit either an economic decadence or a lack of Inventive genius." In this sentence the secretary of ag riculture summed up the reasons lying behind the great campaign now being waged by Uncle Sam the war on waste. In this great struggle for a proper and adequate use of all the resources of the nation, the department of ag riculture is in the front rank, for It is here that a considerable number of valuable discoveries and Inventions have been made within the past two years which will do much to Increase the commercial output of the United States and to enable every Industry to muke the most of products which, in the past, were considered worthless. The great majority of persons are fa miliar with Hie statement of the Chi cago meat packer who boasted Unit Ids factories utilized "every part of the pig but the squeal." Possibly the time will come when government scientists, putting their minds seriously to the problem, will be able to suggest some economic use of this waste innterlul Cider Makes Profit. Consider, for "example, the results of experiments in connection with concen trated cider, one of the most Important of the department's Investigations within the past year. At one stroke, the government scien tists gained a sweeping victory over the waste in apples, the high cost of cider producing, the charges for ship ping the product, the waste in the de terioration of the cider and the cost of the product itself. As a result of Uncle Sam's work several elder mills in Washington and Oregon have com menced to manufacture eoncentrnt ed cider, ' The elimination of seeds from the majority of oranges has deprived Uncle Sam of the opportunity of doing any research work along this line, but there recently arose a considerable difficulty in connection with the handling of this fruit which the department of agricul ture was able to solve and thus prevent another considerable source of wuste. It was found that a proportion of the Florida oranges, upon arrival In New York or other comparatively distant points, were practically worthless on account of numerous "bad spots" and rotten places on the sltlns. The con sumer naturally declined to purchase fruit so marked and the loss to the shinners nnd retailers threatened to mount Into millions of dollars. The government took the matter In hand, howover, and found that the blemishes were due to lack of care In picking the oranges and that wherever the skin was damaged by the shears or even ttie fingernails of the careless picker the rotten spots would appear in a short time. Make $5,000,000 Living. As a result, an order went forth thnt all orange pickers were to wehr gloves and use only blunt-pointed shears, thus reducing the chances of blemishes to n minimum. At once the condition of the fruit Improved and there has been no recurrence of this difficulty. But the education of the fanner In the avoiding of waste is not confined only to the finished product or to Its handling. The government Is continu ally working out new ideas for: A more economic use of farm lands. The better rotation of crops. The use of more useful fertilizers. The Introduction of new plants or an imals which will utilize the wuste spaces In different parts of the country. The keeping of farm records which will show the farmer how much lie li wasting and where this leak occurs. Making the labor of housekeeping easier and less wasteful. Educating children In the raising of pigs, corn, etc. In short every foot of space and ev ery ounce of product should be utilized to Its fullest extent and absolutely nothing allowed to go to waste. Another place in which Uncle sum s ineenultv In connection with wuste products came Into piny was in the sug gestlon made by the government that paper manufacturers, who have been complaining of the high price of print naner for the past two years, make use of broom corn, cereal stalks, "zacaton," a Wild grass that grows In New Mexico and Is now of no use at all, and "hemp hurds," a by-product which remains af ter the hemp Is harvested. In order practically to demonstrate the value of the zacaton and the bemp hurds for paper-making, the govern ment published bulletins about these two products and their possibilities, ntlllzlne naner manufactured from these sources for the purpose. The government has declared war on waste In deadly earnest, and Uncle Sam will not be satisfied until every particle of wasted tlme.'labor and ma terial is nsed for the Denent or inc na tion and the nation's people.

London Saturday Journal. Uncle Sam Keeps Little of This Wealth, However, as Most of It la Restored to the Owners. Dncle Sam found more than $2,500,- 000 worth of checks, drafts, money orders and other valuable papers In undelivered letters which reached the dead letter office during the last year, but he didn't get to keep much of It. Most of this wandering wealth was re stored to its owners. First Assistant Postmaster General Daniel O. Roper in his annual report announces that the dead letter division handled 10,839,890 letters and parcels during the year, a slight Ibcrease over the previous year. One-third of these letters and parcels, or 3,677,194, was delivered; 101,488 contained things of value without clew to their senders nnd were held for claimants; 7,019, 436 had to be destroyed, and 41,775 were still being Investigated. In addition to the valuable papers, with a face value of $2,803,119, found In undellverable letters, many con tained stamps, nnd some currency was found loose In the malls. The stamps nnd currency unclaimed, together with proceeds from the sale of articles of merchandise removed from undeliv ered letters aggregated $53,665, nnd $11,000 was realized from six months' operation of a new postal regulation requiring collection of one cent on advertised letters, making the total net revenue $64,665. Mr. Roper says thnt the revenue estimated under the pres ent conditions for a year would be approximately $75,000, which would make the dead letter division self-sustaining. To prevent the unnecessary accu mulation of letters containing valuable Inclosures, a provision was contained In the Inst postal appropriation Inw re ducing the limit of time that such let ters shall be held awaiting reclama tion from four years to two years. On account of the large growth In the pnrcel post business, experience has demonstrated that the accumula tion of this matter nt the points desig nated for hnndllng dead parcels has become so large us to make It difficult to find spnee for Its accommodation. Regulations provide, In the case of In sured pnrcels, that claims for Indem nity must be filed within six months, and It has been found there Is very little call for lost parcels after the lapse of that time. Accordingly, an order will be Issued amending the reg ulations so ns to reduce the time for holding such pnrcels prior to sale from 12 months to 6 months. Last year, 395,161 parcels were found midellv erable. Dend mall received by the division of dead letters, during the year contained 677,700 misdirected letters, 115,706 un addressed letters, 228,700 letters held for postage, 410,200 letters written on hotel letter paper by persons unknown to the hotels nnd 104,700 letters bear ing fictitious signatures.

THE NEWEST DISCOVERY IN CHEMISTRY This is a recent discovery of Doctor Pierce, who ib bead of the invalids Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo N. Y. Experiments at Doctor Pierce's Hospital for several rears proved that there is no other eliminator of uric acid that can be compared to it. For those easily recognised symptoms of inflam mationas backache, scalding urine and frerjucnt urination, as well as mm merit in the urine, or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, it is simply wonderful how surely "Anuric" acts. The best of results are always obtained in cases of acute rheumatism in the joints, in gravel and gout, and iqvariably the pains and stiffness which so frequently and persistently accom pany the disease rapidly disappear. Go to your nearest drug store and simply ask for a 50-cent package of "Anuric," manufactured by Dr. Pierce, or send 10 cento to Dr. Pierce for a large trial package. If you suspect kidney or bladder trouble, send him a sample of your water and describe symptoms. Doctor Pierce's chemist will examine it, then Dr. Pierce will report to you, without fee or charge. Note : French scientist affirm that "Amine" is thirty -seven times more active than litliia in eliminating urio acid, and Is a harmless but reliable chemical compound that may be safely given to children, but should be used only by grown-ups who actually wish to restore their kidneys to perfect health, by conscientiously using one box or more in extreme cases a "Anuric" L thanks to Doctor Pierce' achievement) I by far the most perfect kidney and bladder corrector obtainable. STINGING NETTLE FOR CLOTH Succeasful Use of Fiber as Substitute for Cotton In Germany Reported by Uncle Sam's Consul. Making cloth out of the stinging net tle, ns a substitute for cotton, Is one of the latest achievements of the Ger mans, according to Uncle Sam's con sul nt Stuttgart. Doctor Rlchter of Vienna, who was responsible for the efforts to utilize this fiber, Is quoted ns stating In the rurse of n lecture on the progress of his research that all the conditions for profitable production have been found, nnd that Germany nnd Austria, by means of a methodical cultivation of the nettle, could make themselves en tirely Independent of the cotton producers. During 1015 and In the spring of 1910 experiments were made In the cultivation of the nettle In numerous districts along the Danube In Austria and Hungary, and all with splendid results. As a result of these experi ments the question was taken up whether there was In Austria nnd Hungary a sufficient area of suitable soli which does not come Into ques tion for the cultivation of other crops. Prof. Mnrchet has through thorough Investigation established the fact that In the Nlederwald In Austria there arc 10,000,000 acres, splendidly adapt ed to the cultivation of tho nettle, nnd which up to tho present have not been utilized for any purpose. According to Doctor Rlchter' esti mates this Is twice the area needed to produce sufficient nettle fiber to re place tho cotton Imports of both Ger many nnd Austria-Hungary. Samples of cloth which were shown ure consid ered by him as proof that fabrics can bo produced from nettle fiber without any admixture of cotton, and thnt the) can bo used for any purpose for which pure cotton fabrics hnvo heretofore been used.
