Possibly it's weak kidneys. That's why Doan's Kidney Pills are so effective. They're especially for weak or disordered kidneys. Here's a Conway case. M. Johnson, policeman, Fifth Ave., Conway, savs: "My kidneys were out of order and I was in a bad way. The kidney see re' ions were very scanty, highly colored and contained sediment like brick-dust. I tried lots of medicines with no results. I finally got Poan's Kidney Pills at the Norton Drug Co.. and they soon relieved all signs of kidney trouble and regulated the passages of the kidney secretions." Price 50c. at all dealers.

C.?The consensus ?f opinion among financial j writers is that there will be a large demand at home and abroad t'^r food! x ; stuffs for several years after the; war ends. Although the war has i caused an unusual demand for food| supplies, and has hoisted tne price jj to recoi\l-making levels, out* farming| industry ought not to suffei from' the return of peace. T > be sure the world at large wil1 be* like a convalescent person after peace is declared and it may be little time before it regains its normal and1 healthy appetite. Nevertheless the survivors of armies will still need large amounts of food stuffs and the consumption of non-combatants ( may increase. There will be a falling off in demand for various products and a shifting to others and as a result prices will have to be readjusted. Much of the disturbances that will result may be unavoidable as all prospects arc more or less clouded and uncertain. However we ought 'to be prepared to meet all thes* i threatening disturbances and if we I can't eliminate their injuries we can at least mitigate them. Our country is not only wiping out its indebtedness but it is accumulafc-j ing capital. New demands have ex-i cited and awakened new needs thus broadening the outlook for activities.

(tWmhrMW y I ne kU>. CONWAY, 8. O. __ FLAVOR AND SHRINKAGE | OK Cl'RED MEATS I i Clcmson College, S. C.?To most farmers, to get a hog ready for butchering, means to get it fat. This is essential for a hog to make good meat, but there are several other factors that should be taken into ^ consideration before the hog is ready j to be killed. Before the hog is penned for the final finishing, it should ( receive plenty of clean healthy feeds ^ both grains and grazing. Green feeds put the system in good condi- ^ ticn, and prepare it for a good finish' s when that time arrives. To the feed is due the flavor of the meats, % and ^ this should receive a lot of atten-' j tion from the farmer who desires to' have the best meat. No matter how well fattened the hog may be, how ^ well it looks or how much feed it re- ^ ceives, the ?feed must be clean and i wholesome. Otherwise the meat will J, not have a good flavor. The hog is I ^ too often fed rank feeds, and kept in { a filthy pen, right up to the time of killing. Such mehtods as this always effect the flavor and wholesomeness of the meat. The hog appreciates clean feed and a clean pen. The hog eats under filthy conditions because he is offered no other. Plenty of pure water and well-balanced clean wholesome feeds, given unuer as clean conditions as permissible are absolutely necessary to have nicely flavored meat. Meat, like milk, absorbs the odors of feed*and filth with which it is surrounded and not until we eliminate these can we expect meat of the best flavor, or meat which is most wholesome. The butchering also has an effect upon the flavor. In Rullet.ii i No. 1(56 the Alabama Experiment | Station states that a hog should not receive any feed for 24 hours before killing, only clean water being allowed. Any feed which the hog eats, in fermenting- in the stomach. sets up odors which will be absorbed 1 i into the system, and result in c badly flavored meat. If one like.^ clean, wholesome, well-flavored meats, then he must take more care in giving his hogs the proper feeds and keeping them under clean surroundings. The hog likes clean feed and pure water as well as the farmer or any other person, likes cured hams with a nice flavor. I i For First Class Shoe Repairing Call on M. B.

BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE Farmers Must Apply to Join to Secretary-Treasurer * of Local. Washington.?The right to borrow under the farm loan act is limitted to farmers and prospective farmers. Farmers or prospective farmers who wish to borrow group themselves into farm loan associations, each association being composed of ten or more farmers. *md ou.-li starting with a minimum of at trust $20,000 of loans. To join, a farmer merely makes application to the socrotary-trorsurer of the loan association in his com r. unity. If none has been organise*! he. should get together the required number of borrowers and organize an association. The federal farm loan board at Washington will fu'o'sii. on. application, a blank form of articles of association for such organizations. rI hen the organizers meet and adopt these article! and sign thorn and the secretary-treasurer makes affidavit thereto. This association then elects five or more directors and the directors then elect a president, vice president, secretary-treasurer, and a loan committee of three members. As soon as the federal land bank of that district is ready for business it will provide this local association with additional blanks including an application for a charter and blanks for the loan committee to use in the work of appraising the farms. As soon as the loan committee is elected it may proceed to appraise the farms upon which mortgages are to be placed. Its report, which must be unanimous, must accompany the signed articles of association and be filed with the federal land bank of that district. When this is done the appraiser of the federal land bank will come to inspect the security offered and accept or reject the report of the loan committee. No one farmer may borrow more than $10,000 nor less than $100. No national farm loan association may start with aggregate loans less than $20,000. If John Smith, a farmer, desires to borrow $2,000 he invests in the stock of his local loan association onetwentieth of this amount, or $100l His association then invest this money in the stock of the federal land bank, enabling it thus to iif j crease its capital so as to make another loan of $2,000 to some other : farmer. The borrower gets his ini vestment back when he pays off his loan, or he may turn it in as the last payment on his loan.
