Jump from Bed in Morning and Drink Hot Water Tells why everyone should drink hot water each morning before breakfast. Why Is man and woman, half the time, feeling nervous, despondent, worried; some days headachy, dull and unstrung; some days really incapaci tated by illness. If we all would practice inside-bath ing. what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of thousands of lialf-sick, anaemic-looking souls with pasty, muddy complexion, we should see crowds of happy, healthy, rosy cheeked people everywhere. The rea son is that the human system does not rid itself each day of all the waste which it accumulates under our pres ent mode of living. For every ounce of food and drink taken into the sys tem nearly an ounce of waste material must he carried out, else it ferments and forms ptomaine-like poisons which are absorbed into the blood. Just as necessary as it is to clean the ashes from the furnace each day, before the fire will burn bright and hot, so we must each morning clear the inside organs of the previous day's accumulation of indigestible waste and body toxins. Men and women, wheth er sick or well, are advised to drink each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it, as a harmless means of washing out of the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the indigestible material, waste, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before put ting more food into the stomach. Millions of people who had theli turn at constipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach, nervous days and sleep less nights have become real cranks about the morning Inside-bath. A quar ter pound of limestone phosphate will not cost much from your druggist or at the store, but is sufficient to dem onstrate to anyone, its cleansing, sweetening and freshening etfect upon the system.—Adv.

When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue it causes con gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick ening headache. Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the sour, undigested food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels. , A Cascaret to-night will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep—a 10-cent box from your druggist means your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels regular for months. Adv.

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flush ing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fail to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheu matism, headaches, liver trouble, ner vousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache tn the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast and in a few days your kidneys will, act fine. This fa mous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithla, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to neutralize the ncids in urine so it no longer causes irrita tion, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful efferves cent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.—Adv.

Concord has come to the conclusion to put in a municipal light plant rath er than connect with the proposed transmission line from Laurel. Dixon is also thinking some of putting in its own plant rather than get the juice from Laurel. Both ol these places last fall at special elections voted ir favor of the power from Laurel, but there seems to be a hitch in the plans somewhere. As an explanation of what the ear shortage really means to a railroad, the Union Pacific has given out fig ures describing its situation. This railroad has about 42.000 freight cars, of which about 19,000 are at present tied up by other lines. These other lines are paying 45 cents per diem charges on the cars, which is a good deal cheaper than buying new cars for themselves.

The cattle receipts for the month just closed broke all previous Febru ary records at the South Omaha mar ket by a large margin. The receipts for the month were approximately 111,200 head, which is about 40,000 head more than were received in February, one year ago. The highest' price ever paid for yearling Mexican wethers at the South Omaha market, $9.85 per 100 pounds, was paid for a carload sent in by F. R. Bellamy of Morrill, Neb. It is 10 cents above the previous record. In a decision handed down at Falls City by Judge J. B. Raper of the dis trict court the ruling was made that drainage district No. 1 must place more secure and lasting foundations under Richardson county bridges, the superstructure of which the coirrt found to be insufficient, but hereafter all the responsibility for the upkeep of the bridges will be on the county. The decision is important in that it has a bearing on the bridge work over every drainage and irrigation ditch in the state. The city cn-ncil of Fremont at its 1 regular monthly meeting granted the request of the Commercial eb.th to al j low the tabernacle building to remain standing this summer for use as an | auditorium.

After more than a year’s trial with all kinds of autos the iitnev business at Hastings ended when fares on the j twenty passenger machine were rais ed to 10 cents. The high price of gasoline and a division of the busi ness with numerous livery car own ers is held responsible. The Intermountain Railway, Light and Power company, which is build ing power lines ont of Holdrege to Funk, Wilcox and Hildreth, expects to have the lines completed soon. Had it not been for the difficulty of securing material from eastern factories, the lines would have been completed by ‘his time. The 1-year-old daughter of Mr and Airs.

TUBERCULIN TEST OF CATTLE IN FAVOR A Fine, Healthy Herd of Dairy Cows. C. P. Norgord, commissioner of agri culture of Wisconsin, speaking before the Guernsey Breeders’ association of Waukesha county, at Waukesha, set forth a new plan whereby the tuber culin test of cattle will not only be of greater value as an aid to science, but will be of increased commercial value and at the same time a greater pro tection to breeder, seller and buyer. Under the plan proposed by Com missioner Norgord tuberculin-tested cattle will not only be given a rating above those not tested, but this rating will be interstate and will be main tained and backed by veterinary de partments of all states. The plan al ready has been indorsed by a number of states. A campaign of education will be conducted in furtherance of the plan, and co-operating with the Wisconsin department of agriculture in this will be the College of Agriculture of Uni versity of Wisconsin, the United States department of agriculture, and the Wisconsin Live Stock Breeders’ association and all county breeders’ organizations of Wisconsin. Under the new order of things the herds coming under the test and found free from tuberculosis will be certified as “Class A” herds, and will be so listed in all states. Therefore, it will be an inducement for the breeder to voluntarily acquire this certification as soon as possible. In setting forth his plan, Commis sioner Norgord said: “In an effort to simplify the inter state inspection of cattle and to en courage the use of the tuberculin test, the Wisconsin department of agricul ture is hereby submitting a plan whereby it may be possible to make shipments from herds which are control of tuberculosis in animals sold and shipped into other states. Very stringent requirements have been placed upon the testing of cattle for tuberculosis that are to be shipped into other states. In order to main tain trade with these states, the breed ers and live stock sanitary board must bring their cattle up to the standard required by these tests. The present requirements in most states are that tuberculin tests should be made with in 30 days from date of shipment. It is easily seen that such a test upon cattle whose previous history regard ing tuberculosis is not known, and such a test made by strangers and pos sibly in strange quarters, will not re veal the conditions of the animals re garding tuberculosis. "It is also easy to see that cattle that have been tested for a number of years without showing tuberculosis are much safer animals to buy than those selected by the process of the test mentioned above. “Correspondence and conferences with state veterinarians of other states have assured us that they are willing to co-operate in a plan whereby herds tested annually are listed in a class known as ‘Clean Herds’ or ‘Class A.‘ It will be readily seen that herds, whether they be purebred or grades, will be more desirable to present within and without the state than those who have not been tested and are not eligible to this class. The consequence will be that the market and the prices for cattle in ‘Class A will be better than for all other ani mals. Consequently, it will be readily seen that there will be a desire on the part of the farmers and breeders tc have their cattle tested and in condi tion for entrance into this class. “The incentive for testing and cleaning up herds in the state will therefore come from the breeders farmers and breeder associations rath er than from any pressure without. I “We have decided to take definite steps and vigorous action in this mat ter' and have worked out a plaii which I wish to present today. Ac cording to this plan, we propose tc establish a list of herds that are free from tuberculosis, so far as careful tuberculin tests made by inspectors of the live stock and sanitary board of the department of agriculture can show them. “The following are the details ol this plan so far as they have beeD definitely worked out: “First—Herds admitted to the tesl for entrance to the list of certified herds, or ‘Class A,’ must first have passed at least two satisfactory tests. “When an owner decides to have his herd tested for entrance to the certi fied list, he must first make applica tion to the state veterinarian of the department of agriculture. A veterin arian will then be sent as soon as one is available to make the necessary tests, and if no re-actors are found on that test, or any previous test, the herd may then be admitted to the list. "The expense of making the test will be borne by the owner, and will be sufficient in amount to cover the salary and expenses of the employees for the time devoted to the work. "Second—The owner must agree not to introduce any animals into his herd except from a ‘Class A’ herd, unless animals so added to the herd are tu berculin tested on entrance to tie herd and retested again within three months. The owner must also agree to submit his herd to be tested annu ally by an employee of the live stock sanitary board. Able to Conform to Test. deemed free from tuberculosis, so far as can be judged by use of the tuber culin test and the physical examina tion of such cattle, and where there have been no diseased animals found upon twc successive examinations. "The reasoii for the establishment of such classification is this. The prospective buyer is learning to look for herds which are annually tuber culin tested. He realizes that whether the cattle which he bought will be per manently free from tuberculosis or not will depend largely upon the condition regarding tuberculosis of the herd in which the animal has been prior to the time of purchase. The history of the herd plays a large factor in determin ing the future welfare of an animal, and the time is not far distant when the purebred breeder will refuse to buy from a herd which cannot show a clean record regarding tuberculosis as shown by the tuberculin test. “Another reason for the new plan is the encouragement by reason of es tablishing a list of those owners hav ing tuberculosis-free herds, designat ing them as ‘Class A.’ The owner who has thus far tested his cattle has en countered many disagreeable circum stances, one of which is the fact that a number of people who never have tested or believed in the tuberculin test would point with scorn to the man who was testing and designate him as a. man who had tuberculosis in his herd, when the only assurance that the neighbor had that his herd was not afflicted was the fact that he had not tried to ascertain whether there was any disease there 01 not. “The special necessity and desira bility of taking this step lies in the All encouragement possible will be given to the breeders and owners to have their herds tested locally so that they may make sure that their herds are in condition to be admitted into the certified class. “Third—The Wisconsin Live Stock Breeders’ association has entered heartily into the project and is making it a part of its work the coming year to induce farmers, breeders and breed ers’ associations to test their herds in order to rid them of tubercular ani mals under direction of the live stock sanitary board, to prepare them for the state test for admittance into the certified list of clean herds or ‘Class A.’ "Negotiations are now under way and in some instances have been con cluded with a number of states for the acceptance of shipments from such herds to any state in the Union, on a certificate based upon the yearly test of such herds, such certificate to be is sued from the state veterinary divi sion.” Draft in Plowing. It takes 55 per cent of the total draft in plowing to cut the furrow slice, 12 per cent to turn the furrow of the sole and the landside. A good point for farmers to remember is that a dull share point increases the draft by one-third. Root Crops for Cows. Mangel wurzels, stock beets and turnips are excellent root crops for sucoulent feed in winter, if you have not enough cows to make a silo pay. Sheep Kill the Weeds. Many farmers do not start a flock of sheep because they will not stand for the expense of fencing; but fen cing is not expensive, and sheep will soon pay back the cost and a profit The improvement of the pasture alone will Justify the fencing outlay. » Duck Breeding. Ducks can be profitably bred for four years. Geese can be bred for many years—for a period that seems Incredible. THE EUROPEAN WAR A YEAR AGO THIS WEEK March 7, 1915.
