TEN WEEKS IN BED-EMINENT PHYSICIANS FAILED? WONDERFUJJECO 'ERY I wish to inform you of the great benefits I have derived from the use of Swamp-Root. 1 had been a sufferer for more than twenty years from kidney and liver trouble and was almost constantly treated by the most eminent physicians who could only give me temporary relief. 1 had been in bed ten weeks when 1 began the use of Swamp-Root. Inside of twenty four hours I could see that I had been greatly benefitted. I continued to use Swamp-Root until I had used several bottles when 1 really felt that my old trouble was completely cured and I am positive that any person suffering with kidney or liver trouble can be cured by the use of this preparation. I am now in the best of health, better than I have been for ten years or more. I do not know how to express myself as strongly as I desire, in favor of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, as I am sure that it saved my life and that my good health is due entirely to this great remedy. I heartily recommend it to every suffered and am confident they can be benefitted as I have been. It is a pleasure for me, gentlemen, to hand vou this recommendation. MRS. H. J.

[ COURT UPHOLDS SENTENCES Affirms Verdict in Diggs-Caminetti Case. San Francisco, March 18.?The convictions of F. Drew Caminetti, son of Anthony Caminetti United States commissioner general of immigration and Maurice 1. Diggs. former State architect, under the Mann white slave act, were affirmed today by the United States circuit court of appeals. The opinion was delivered by Presiding Judge Gilbert and was concurred in by Judge Wolverton. Judge Ross dissented. Diggs and Caminetti were tried and convicted in district court in 1913 for the transportaton of Lola Norris and Marsha Warrington from Sacramento, Cal.,? to Reno, Nev., for immoral purposes. Diggs was sentenced to imprison i. TII?XT-!1 ~1 1 i? muni on mti^uii lsiumi ior two years and fined $2,000. Caminetti was sentenced to 18 months imprisonment and a fine of $1,500. The oase went to the higher court on a writ of error. The opinion holds that the prosecution had a right to comment on the fact that Diggs was silent upon the movements of the four principals after they left Sacramento and that it was proper for the jury to consider this silence as an indication of guilt or innocence. 1 FIGHT FOR POSITION ON WESTERN FRONT Allied Armies Preparing for Great Assault When Roads Dry. FRENCH CONTINUE GAINS ~ Continued Activity on Eastern War Front,?Germany Scores Again in Matter of . Submarines. ; The general situation in regard to tne iMiropeun war toward the close ol the past week was as follows: From one end of the long Western battle front to the other Belgians, French British and Germans are fighting for strategic positions prepar atory to the great effort to be made when the roads are dry. Munitions have been brought up and the men are ready. The nature of the more or less isolated struggles going on can be imag ined from the losses both to the Germans and British during a few days' fighting around N< uve Chappelle. The German casualties, according to Gen. French, numbered in the neighborhood of 18,000. An official list issued by the British war oilier gives the number oi Lsritish officers killed in those operations as 112 with 119 wounded or not accounted for. Losses among the men are believed to be large, numbering, it is estimated about two-thirds of the German losses French successes are reported in Champagne, particularly around Perthes, where important trenches have been captured, as well as a height which dominates a large section of ground. In an attempt to regain this height, a lanstrum regiment, supported by the guards delivered a violent counter attack in which, according to the French account. there were few survivors. A dispatch from Pctrograd says the fall of Przcmysl, the Galician city, which has boon holding out since early in the war against the Russian attackers, is expected within a few days. The Russians in Poland are conducting an active campaign along both banks of the Orzyc river, but they are being met by the Germans with equally hard blows. Official communications on these operations are as meagre in detail as they are with respect to the campaign in the Carpathians. Through the chancellor of the exchequer, the British government announces that it intends to take over factories in England for the production of war supplies. The Washington state department has made public the six notes exchanged between this country and Germany and Great Britain and France relative to submarine warfare, the use of neutral flags, the removal of mines, the question of food shipments and the proclamation of a blockade by the allies. Referring to the proposed blockade the German press says it will serve to goard Germany into waging a submarine warfare with resolution. Three submarines at various times endeavored to torpedo the Anchor line n , ? i OLCtllllUl V/clIIU'I UllUl UII IICI LI Ijl through the Irish sea to Liverpool from New York. The steamer's speed saved her. German underwater craft however, have torpedoed three additional steamers. A Dardanelles dispatch reports the loss of three mine sweepers and one sailing vessel and considerable damage to a British cruiser in the fighting in the straits. The British admiaralty announces that 23 men were killed and 37 wounded on board the cruiser Amethyst last Saturday night, and that the battleship Ocean lost two killed, while several of the other vessels engaged had slight easualties in men wounded. American citizens in Austria are said to have requested Secretary Bry an to take steps to secure the safe passage to Austria of an American ship loaded with food for them. Orders Special Term.

NEW GAGTUS PLANT IN WASTE PLAGES Will Crow Where Nothing EIso Will and Furnishes Food. ARTICLE OF INTEREST Spineless Cactus is Destined to Become one of the World's Most Useful Plants,-Does Not Require Rich Lands. Columbia Record. Mr. 11. K. Thompson has sent to this office a slab of the spineless cactus, the wonderful plant given to the world by Luther Burbank. The scient ist took the ordinary old-time "prickly pear," removed the "spines" or prickly points and gave to the world j an edible plant which fills in waste I places, growing- where nothing lose will . Spineless cactus is destined to hecome one of the world's most useful plants?furnishing food for men and beast, and growing in regions which have been regarded as too poor for stock raising or any kind of farming. It has been suggested that spineless cactus would grow prolifically in even the barren sandhills of Richland county. Mr. Thompson has handed The Record some interesting phamplcts bearing on the spineless cactus. In one of these it is claimed that one acre of cactus will care for as many cattle as 50 acres of open range, eight acres of alfalfa or 10 or more acres of the ordinary pasture grasses. The cactus does not require rich lands. Experiments are being made in Florida in the ordinary sand lands, and the prospects of success are bright. In Mobile, Ala., a number of the leading business men have incorporated a company and have planted a carload of slabs, as the branches of the cactus are known. Each of these leaves or slabs weighs from two to 12 pounds. One is on exhibition in the window of the office of S. H. McI i .. c 11. c j i Ul.-Clll, W1 LIIC OUUUlern railway. The slabs themselves are planted as cuttings. The time to plant is in hot weather The land must be well drained. The cactus seems the opposite of things we know. It requires hot weather and dry soil. It is best to plant a whole slab. It requires from four to six weeks for a slab to take root and it is better for the suttings to be wilted a littlebit. The slabs are planted one-third under the ground, either straight up or at an angle, with the flat sides facing east and west. While the cactus thrives best in good soil, yet it will grow in poor land, provided that the soil is kept dry to a depth of six inches from the top during the planting and germination. The cactus is planted in double rows 12 feet apart to permit wagons to drive between the rows. It is said to be valuable as an adjunct to alfal fa. It improves year by year. It should never be planted in the shade or in wet weather. However, it requires a lot of rainfall to give best results. One man can set out 1,000 slabs a day, and the cost of setting out will not exceed $5 an acre. The cactus may be allowed to grow year after year and be gathered as needed. It requires no storage except where the winters are severe. It may be fed at any time of the year. "On good land, more tons of it can be obtained per acre than on five or ten acres of other forage." Ordinarily, cactus requires other food mixed with it, just as with other forage crops. Poultry and hogs devour it greedily. It improves the flavor of milk. There is a variety of the spineless cactus that bears fruit, which may be eaten in the raw state.

The fruit contains from seven to 12 per cent of sugar and may be made into jam or jelly,and is very line for fattening hogs. The most astonishing statement, however, about this cactus is the following: "Experts give cactus its status from agricultural point of view, by stating that it possesses from one-half to three-fourts the food value of alfalfa. But it must be borne in mind that a much larger tonnage of cactus can be produced to the acre. One acre of alfalfa with irrigation will support one cow, ^whereas one acre of cactus will support at least four cows without irrigation and that with only one ^ 1 i 1 1 / _ i - _ I>uiiiwug ni nun a century.

GERMANS UNABLE | TO SHIFT FORGES Allies Have Them Engaged Fvnrvwhnrp RUSSIANS IN PRUSSIA Reported to Have Crossed the German Frontier Near Tilsit London, March 19.?The apparent failure of Field Marshal Von Hindenburg's various attempts to reach War saw, the reappearance of Russians over the East Prussian frontier, near Tilsit, and the allied offensive in the west has, according to British observers, put Germany in a position where she dare not shift any substantial force from either the east or the west. Although there are rumors of reinforcements being hurried from Poland to France or Belgium to meet the French and British thrusts, military writers in London hold to the opinion that Germany must maintain her pros ent armies in both areas of lighting practicality intact. This will necessitate the finding of new forces for both the east and west if she would effectually meet the increasing strength of her enemies. It is pointed out that the plan to deliver a crushing blow in one theatre and then to rush across the country to the other has miscarried on both fronts. This was seen first in the dash to Paris, second in the rush for Calais; third in the battle of Ypres, and then repeatedly in the east, as Field Marshal Von Hindenburg sought to break through the Russian linos to the Polish capital. Great Britain has made no official reply to the German allegations that a British squadron fired 011 the German cruiser Dresden while she was within the three-mile limit of Chilean waters and no denial has been forthnam innr rt vm O n of uf nninnf f Uof I ; V,\/IIIIII^ 1/1 tut \i\ i man oui tvnuia UKi t the Dresden was blown up by her own crow.
