The mayors of all of the citie? in this part of the state and the judges of the police courts are receiving notices from the authorities at the state penal farm to the effect that the farm is in good condition to handle a great many more men. This is thought to be a “hint to the wise” to allow the police to know that there is a shortage of men for the harvest season and that many more are needed. According to Mayor Christen there are a number in this city who are in line for the “farm” and it is possible that several will be sent there in time for the last work in the harvest fields. z Today is the tenth anniversary of the famous trip Walter Scott (“Scotty”) the California mine owner, made from Los Angeles to Chicago, a distance of 2,265 miles in 44 hours and 54 minutes at a cost of $5500. Except fer the notoriety achieved, by the traveler, there-appears to have been no reason for the hurried journey which marked an epoch in transcontinental travel. The train was composed of engine, baggage car- dining car and sleeper and on the run nineteen different locomotives were used, together with eighteen engineers and firemen and ten conductors. The average speed was fifty miles an hour while some spurts at the rate of one hundred and six miles an hour were made. “If forecasts are realized, this summer will see an end to much of the waste in crops of orchard and vegetable garden. The farmer is rapidlylearning to do his own canning, and he is convinced at last, too, that he can sell products so preserved at aj good profit. The work of county, agents, of course, has done much to educate the- producer along this line, but the club movement has probably done a great deal more In this respect. Farm girls have learned, through the club instruction and cooperation, that many a dollar can be made this way, and this, in turn, has led to a desire to save much that heretofore has been thrown awav. The result is obvious. Surplus produce is going into cans instead of rotting on the ground.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irritate and inflame, causing a burning, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with a Molding sensation and is very profuse; again, there is difficulty in avoiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks call it, because they can’t control urination. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Get about four ounces of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is a source of irritation to the bladder and urinary organs which then act normally again. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is splendid for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia-water drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble. o XOTK’K TO CONTRACTORS.
