Uric acid in meat excites tho kid
neys, they becomo overworked; get
sluggish, ache, and feel liko lumps of
lead. Tho urlno becomes cloudy; tho
bladder is irritated, and you may bo
obliged to seek relief two or thrco
times during tlio night. When tho kid
neys clog you must help them flush
off tho body'B urinous wasto or you'll
bo a real sick person shortly. At first
you feel a dull misery in tho kidney
region, you,suffer from backache, sick
headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour,
tonguo coated and you feel rheumatic
twinges when tho weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water beforo
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will thon act fine. This fa
mous 'Baits is made from tho acid of
grapes and lemon Juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulato hcm to normal activity,
also to neutralizo tho acids in urino,
so It no longer is a source of irrita
tion, thus ending bladdor weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should tako now and then to keep tho
kidneys clean and active. Druggists
hero say' they sell lots of Jad Salts to
folks who believe in overcoming kid
noy trouble while it is only trouble.

Use of Split-Log Drarj,
It 1b estimated that tho peoplo of
this country annually wasto $250,000,
000 becauso of bad roads. Investiga
tions havo shown that tho average
cost of hauling on roads in tho United
States is 23 cents per ton per mile.
It costs tho farmer more to haul a
bushol of wheat 9.4 miles, tho average
dtstanco from farm to shipping point,
than it ordinarily costs to ship it
from Now York to Liverpool. In
Franco, England and Germany, consu
lar reports show instancos whoro tho
cost of hauling agricultural products
is as low as 10 cents por ton ler
milo. If tho farmers of this country
could rcduco tho cost of hauling to 13
cents per ton milo, thoy would sayo
about $250,000,000 which now repre
sents their "mud tax."
Tho bonoflts of good roads aro nu
merous and far-reaching. They are a
poworful factor in promoting better
farm conditions throughout tho coun
try. Thoy mako tho farmer more In
dependent of seasonal and weathor
conditions and permit him to tako bet
ter advantage of favorable market and
prices. They incrcaso tho valuo of his
farm and so enhance his material
wealth. They promoto bettor agricul
tural methods and aro nocossary for
an efficient rural delivery and pnrcol
post. Thoy havo a profound effect on
our country Bchools and tho homo lifo
on tho farm. There aro indeed few
Investments which tho farmor can.

mako from which ho is bo sure to re
colve generous dividends as from good
roads.
A reduction in tho cost of hauling
is ono of tho most immodlato benefits
of a good road. A striking lnstanco
'of this la shown by investigations
conducted In Virginia whoro the av
erage dlstanco from tho farm to tho
market la 7-8.10 miles, and tho aver
age load for tho staple crops is about
ono ton. Assuming that tho wages of
a twchor30 team and driver aro $3.00
per day, it eosta tho farmor in Vir
ginia an avorago of 20 cents per ton
milo to market his crops. It tho roads
wero graded and Improved with a sur
facing suitable for tho particular road
and region, tho load could bo in
creased at least 50 per ront and tho
round trip mado in tho same or less
tlmo without any additional hardship
on tho team. This would represent
a clear saving of $1.50 por day to each
farmor in the statu for every day in
tho year in which ho was engaged in
hauling to or from tho market.
Tho IncreaBO in land values Is an
other bonoiit that is notlcoable wher
evor road Improvement takes pluce.

This Is duo partly to tho decreased
cost of hauling and partly to tho fact
that a good road makes tho farm a
moro dcsirablo placo to live.
Moreover, improved roads havo a
market effect on both tho amount and
character of production. For oxam-
plo, around tho typical small town,
when the roads aro not improved,
truck gardening, dairying and othor
forms of intcnslvo farming aro con
fined to a small zone, immediately
surrounding tho town, which is usu
ally scarcely sufficient to BUpply tho
local demand. Without good roads
tho production of perishable goods at
any considerable dtstanco from mar
ket or shipping point is too hazard
ous an undertaking to bo profitable.
With good roads tho produco can bo
brought to markot with regularity and
in primo condition, two essentials in
successful marketing.
Tho parcel post makes possible di
rect marketing between producer and
consumer regardless of distance. But
hero again tho public roads play no
small part, affoctlng not only posBlblo
oxtonslons of tho system, but also tho
cost of its operation.

is closely connected with tho condi
tion of tho public roads. Whilo it is

country, It Is a well-known fact that
In our rural schools tho attendance
almost invariably shows a marked do
creaso during tho poriods when tho
roads aro bad. Another point worthy
of consideration ia that tho one-room
school Is being supplanted by larger
consolidated schools throughout thoso
portions of tho country whoro condi
tions mako it practicablo to convey
children to school at tho public ex
pense. Roads passable at all times
aro most necessary for successful
school consolidation, Thcro is abun
