You keep the chicken house clean to keep the parasites off the chickens. You spray to kill germs—but what do you do to get the germs and parasites inside the chickens? Hens especially show it at moulting time and during the winter. How can you expect them to lay. Free them of all internal para sites by feeding B. A. Thomas Poul try Powder occasionally. If it doesn't make your hens happy, we will return your money.—J. J. Slominski, Loup City, Neb. Hot Water Bottles at Swanson’s. • _ TO ENCOURAGE ARID LAND SET TLEMENT. Washingfon. Jan. 17.—(Special Cor respondence)—Congressman Addison T. Smith of Idaho, has introduced a bill which, if it becomes a law, will greatly facilitate the financing of re clamation projects on arid and swamp lands. The bill provides for the issu ance of four per cent bonds on newly approved projects, to be deposited in the United States Treasury, the gove ernment to be secured by annual de posits of $500,000 from the Federal reclamation fund. The government will then sell certificates of indebtedness of the United States to the amount of the bonds, thus providing funds for the construction of the projects. Mr. Smith has submitted his bill to all the members of congress from the states containing large areas of arid and swamp lands, and hopes to secure their cooperation in the passage of the leg islation. In the introduction of the measure Congressman Smith has an ticipated the collapse at the close of the war of the present temporary pros perity, and hopes to encourage the settlement on reclamation projects of the thousands who will then be thrown out of work.

Good bam A WAR IS ON And we have all closed the books of another year of life and business. Honestly! haven’t we a great deal to be thankful for this year? Here in America, the greatest country under the sun, peace and prosperity has hovered over us. History does not record another twelve months like that of 1916—and possibly the world will never see the like again. On the other side of the Atlantic, millions of men are engaged in a gigantic struggle for supremacy which has now lasted for almost three years. The smoke of cannon hangs heavy over battle field on which countless thousands are giving up their lives daily. The earth is red with the dye of human blood. The Yuletide air is rent with the crash of heavy guns and the screams of wounded and dying men. On account of this war we must all pay high prices for goods in this our America, but what is that to compare with foreign countries. We have bought very heavy in a few items which we are going to offer to the trade for one week. Now we would like to see patrons take advantage of these specials, for the price on many of these items is less than wholesale price. GROCERY DEPARTMENT. 1 100 lb.
