CRITICISES ACTION OF SENATE

delegates to sign the peace protocol, according to Ernest’ Mahain, professor of political economy and international law at the University of Liege. Professor Mahain, who was one of the Belgian government’s delegates to the international labor conference, sailed for home yesterday on board the French liner La Touraine. The ship left for Havre after several days’ delay caused by lack of coal. Professor Mahain in criticising the senate 'for its failure to ratify the ipeace treaty, said that a situation had been created compelling Belgium to defend its borders if the allies decided on a greater military occupation of Germany, and that Belgium would have to assist in protecting the Rhine frontier. Professor Mahain, as well as other Relegates to the labor conferenoe, who returned on La Touraine, expressed confidence that much good had been accomplished by the labor sessions.

NO REASON FOR IT When Rensselaer Citizens Show a Way. There can be no reason why any reader of this who suffers the tortures of an aching back, the annoy- ' ance of urinary disorders, the pains and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the words of a neighbor who has found relief. Read what a Rensselaer citizen says: Nelson Randle, retired farmer, N. Main St., says: “I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills at different times when suffering from a lame and aching back and other symptoms of disordered kidneys. I got Doan’s at Fendig’s Drug Store and they soon brought relief from the backache and other kidney ailments. I don’t know of a case where Doan’s have failed to prove of benefit.’’ Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Randle had.

Lonergan Brother* Make Good Start. ' , _ Lonergan Brothers, of Surrey, made the first exhibition of their herd of Chester White hogs at the International Livestock show this year and brought home the fourth place on their young boar. These young men have been quietly at work building up a good herd of hogs and according to competent judges have some of the best individuals of the breed in their herd that are to be found in the state. Another Cup for tha Poultry Show. Jesse Snyder, president of the County Corn and Poultry association, announces that the Central Garage of Rehsselaer has donated a silver trophy cup, valued at $25, to be awarded for the best pen of birds on exhibition at the county show to be held in the armory in Rensselaer January sth to 10th. The cup is to be won three times by an exhibitor before dt becomes his property. Plans for the show are maturing rapidly and the only worry that the officers have is to find enough room for all the exhibitors. While they announce that they will take care of all entries, prudent exhibitors will do well to make arrangements with Secretary Max Kepner, Rensselaer, for coop room as soon as possible. Good Program for State Bee Keepers’ Meeting. A number of local bee keepers are expecting to attend the meeting pf the Indiana Bee Keepers’ association to be held in the state house at Indianapolis December 1819. The program includes addresses by some of the best authorities on bee keeping in the United States and is said to be unusually strong. Market Reporter to Be Issued.

It is a periodical which should be in the hands of every producer and will contain the most accurate reports available. It will be sent free to-those who request it and such requests may ne made through the county agent’s office. Boys’ and Girls* Industrial Clubs Will Exhibit.
