What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so

Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism,
r>ain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, w ine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of 5wamp«Root

for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine

any form of stomach trouble if you
take Kodol occasionally—just at the
times when you need It. Kodol does
not have to be taken all the time.
Ordinarily you only take Kodol now
and then, because it completely di

WESTERN RINKS
HANDLE RECEIPTS
GOVERNMENT DEPOSITORIES FOR
FOREST SERVICE MONEY.
All Moneys of the Service to be De
posited to Credit of U. S. Treas
urer.
Washington, Nov. 18.—The names
of six government depositories which
are to handle the receipts of the
United States Forest Service, after
December 1, when its organization
for the administration of the Nation
al Forests will be removed from
Washington to six field districts in
the west, have just been announced.
The designation of western banks
to handle the moneys received from
timber sales, permits for stock graz
ing and for special uses of various
resources in the National Forests is
an innovation which will mean that
all the receipts of the Forests Ser
vice in the future will be deposited
to the credit of the treasurer of the
United States and made available for
circulation in the part of the country
from which it is derived, within the
limits of the amounts allowed by law
for government deposits, instead of
being forwarded to the treasurer at
Washington. The banks which have
been named and which have all con
sented to serve the government are
located in the district headquarters of
the Forest Service at Denver, Ogden,
Albuquerque, Missoula, Portland, and
San Francisco. They are as follows:
Western Montana National Bank,
Missoula, Montana. Headquarters of
first district, Including northwestern
Washington, northern Idaho, northern
Wyoming, and northwestern South
Dakota.
Denver National Bank, Denver,
Colorado. Headquarters of second
district, including Colorado, southern
Wyoming. South Dakota, northwest
ern Minnesota, Nebraska, western
Kansas, southeastern Utah.
First National Bank. Albuquerque.
New Mexico, headquarters of third
district, including Arizona, Arkansas.
New Mexico, and Oklahoma.
First National Bank, at Ogden.
Utah, headquarters of fourth district,
including Utah, southern Idaho, west
ern Wyoming, estern Nevada, and
northwestern Arizona.
First National Bank. San Francisco.
California, headquarters for fifth dis
trict, including California and south
western Nevada.
First National Bank, Portland, Ore
gon, headquarters of sixth district,
including Washington, Oregon, a
small part of northern California,
and Alaska.
The estimated recepits for the Na
tional Forests for the present fiscal
year will be approximately $2,000,000,
making the receipts from each of the
six districts range from $27r>,000 to
$250,000. The depositories will re
ceive all remittances due the govern
ment for use of the National Forests
after December 1, and deposit them
to the credit of the treasurer of the
United States. According to the plan
which has been approved by the offi
cials of the United States treasury,
the Forest Service and the officers of
the various depositories, when ti tim
ber sale, stock grazing, or special use
application is made, the forest super
visor will fill out a letter of transmit-
tal in duplicate and tell the applicant
to remit the amount directly to the
national bank which is the depository
for the district. Remittances will be
in the form of a national bank draft,
express or postoffice money order,
and will be payable to the bank, since
forest supervisors are not allowed to
receive money. The letter of trans
mittal Is virtually a deposit slip to
accompany the remittance. The du
plicate copy goes to the district
fiscal agent. All remittances will be
assembled and checked up at the end
of each day, a single certificate of de
posit made out by the bank and mail
ed to the secretary of the treasury.
This simple plan which has required
months for the treasury officials and
officers of the Forest Service to per
fect, is one which will expedite busi
ness both for the users of the Na
tional Forests and for the force in
the office of each district forester,
and at the same time will make it
possible for the government to de
posit the National Forest receipts in
western banks, and help the cireulat-
Ion in that particular section of the
country where it is originally spent.
few specialists had knowledge at the
time of the Conference of Governors
and experts at the White House, In
May.
The governors carried the spirit
of the conference home with them to
their own people, and have kept
things moving ever since hy appoint
ing State Commissions to study ’oca!
problems, by writing and speaking
upon the subject of conservation, and
by keeping in elose and helpful touch
with the National Commission. They
are ready to take part in the ap
proaching joint meeting. The bare
announcement that it had been set
for December S resulted in a number
of acceptances before the formal in
vitation of the commission had even
got into the mails.
When the conservation movement
was started, specific information
about, the actual state of our resour
ces was partly wanting, partly in
accessible. Certain facts were
broadly known. It was at least un
questionable that our resources had
been wastefully used, and that some
| of them, notably the mines, were
sure in time to be completely ex
hausted. while others, for example
the forests, could still be kept perp:
tually useful by right management.
The first work was to get the facts,
to show exactly what the situation
was and how it could be improved by
measures that would work. Wit bom
an inventory of the resources which
should show the present condition of
the resources and the way to devel
op them to the best advantage, con
servation was in danger of staying
up in the air.
But the work is now practically
done. The facts are there, in dollars
and cents, tons of coal, board feet of
timber, acre-feet and horsepower of
water, acres of land. And the' pos
sible reform measures have been
weighed. The final report to the pre
sident will be the necessary supple
ment to the addresses at the White
House Conference. The note of these
addresses was a note of warning.
The report is expected to show that
the warning must he heeded if the
exhaustion of natural resources is
not. one day. to impoverish the na
tion. and it will also undoubtedly
bring out how the country’s resources
can be developed so as to last tin*
longest possible time and serve the
greatest good of tin* people.

Washington. Nov. 18.—The much-
talked of inventory of the nation's re-
seources is now practically complet
ed. To consider the material it has
brought together the National Con
servation Commission has just, an
nounced its first full meeting for
Tuesday, December I, in Washing
ton. At that meeting the first steps
will be taken toward putting into
tangible shtVpe the results of the six
months’ hard work on taking stock
of the country’s waters, forests,
lands, and minerals.
One week Igtor, after the commis
sion lias gone over the inventory, it
will hold a joint meeting in Washing
ton with the government of the
States and territories, or their repre
sentatives. At this meeting the in
ventory will be further discussed and
the report which the president, has
requested the commission to make to
him by January 1, will be formulated.
With less than six months in which
to make the inventory, the four
branches Into which the commission
is divided, aided by the co-operation
of the governments, have brought to
gether what is probably the most
useful collection of facts about the
material things on which natlonar in
dustry and progress are based that has
ever been assembled at one time.
Reports presenting these facts and
pointing out their significance have
been prepared. These reports, sum
marized and Indexed, will be submit
ted to the commission at Its coming
meeting.

RATIONAL CURE FOR ECZEMA.
No More Dosing the Stomach—Cure
the Skin Through the Skin.
When you have a scratch on your
hand you wash it and then the skin
cures itself. You do not take blood
medicine to cure a festered wound.
' The best, skin specialists today are
agreed that the only way to cure the
skin is through the skin.
This fact that eczema is a skin dis
ease and not. a blood disease is evi
dent from statistics which show that
nearly all eczema suffers are per
fectly healthy in all other ways ex
cept as to their skin. If the eczema
patients were really suffering from
an inward malady, the entire body
and not only the skin would be dis
eased.
You can prove immediaAely the re
lief of a true skin cure by using oil
of wintergreen as compounded In D.
D. D. Prescription.
This liquid attacks the disease
germs, numbing them while building
up the healthy tissue of the skin. We
have now handled this meritorious
and thoroughly scientific remedy for
so long and have seen its reliable re
sult so many times rhat we freely ex
press our confidence. Gaffney Drug
