WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Unceasing Work Keeps j
Us Strong and Healthy
All the blood in the body
passes through the kidneys
once every three minutes. The
kidneys filter the blood. They
work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500
grains of impure matter daily.
When unhealthy some part of
f.d uifqe pieo sreettaoinetaoie
this impure matter is left inthe
blood. This brings on many
diseases andsymptoms—which
vary widely but may include
pain in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin,
rheumatic pains, gout, gravel,
disorders of the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular
heart, debilty drowsiness
dropsy, deposits of the urine,
etc. But if you keep the fil
ters right the dager is over
come. Doan’s Kidney Pills
have proven an effective kid
ney medicine.
A. B. Philips, carpenter, W.
Arch St. Searcy, Ark., says: ‘‘I
had good results from Doan’s
Kidney Pills nd so did another
of my family. My back had
given me quite a bit of pain
and on using one box of Doan’s
Kidney Pills, I had line results.
I have noticed no sign of kid
ney trouble to speak of since.”
Price 50c at all dealers.
Don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy—get Doan’s Kidney
Pills—the same that Mr. Phil

WORD OF WARNING
ISSUED BY BRYAN
If any democrat, in office or
out of office, imagines that the
democratic party can be frigh
tened into frenzied prepared
ness he is making a serious mis
take. We are now spending
more than two hundred and fif
ty millions a year on the army
and navy, ten times as much as
we are spending on the depart
ment of agriulture. We have
been “getting ready” by grad
ually enlarging the appropria
tions. Why get excited now?
Our preparedness is increasing
RELATIVELY as other nations
exhaust themselves. No nation
wants to engage in war with us
—no war is in sight or even
probable, unless we deliberately
invite it by falsely accusingoth
er nations of beingenemies.and
by making hatred a national
policy.
The rank and file of the
democratic party are produc
ers of wealth—not manufactur
ers of arms and ammunition—
and they will not consent tothe
taxes necessary to meetthepro
gram of the jingoes. The mass
es favor peace and know that
“preparedness” is both a bur
den and a menace.—W. J.Bry

13 CENT COTTON
Last year farmers sold vast quantities of cotton at SIX CENTS A POUND. This
year it looks like they are going to sell vast quantities at FIFTEEN CENTS A POUND.
The thirteen cent figure has already been reached and passed on good trades. So far
from a decline in cotton prices following England’s contraband order, it has actually
climbed from 7 and S cents a pound to practically 13 cents a pound. March and April
figures are selling for 11 cents—and somebody has suggested that if two or three more
countries would declarecotion contraband, prices would soon go to 17 cents.
Now, when wo consider these very optimistic figures and recollect that thediversi
fication propaganda i; responsible for it all, and that our present good prices for cotton
will not continue for anther year if farmers go back to raising cotton extensively, theon
ly logical thing to do is to diversify and keep diversifying.
On the- toher hand, please recollect that wheat is selling for more than a dollar a
bn-ht I, and that probably more than 10 per cent more wheat was raised this year than
ever before in Arkansas, and that the land used was last year devoted to cotton.
The gist of the whole matter is that the farmers of Arkansas must keep their head,
remember that the present conditions are brought about by this diversified farming
movement, enabling them to get more than they have been able to obtain for cotton for
quite a while, and also good prices for their wheat.
The Arkadelph i Milling Company began a year ago and more to urge the farmer
to diverify, and gel a.way from cotton raising, and consequently the price of cotton this
year is higher than in a number of years before.
It pays to diver il'y, and PAYS BIG. That is the only solution of the South’s prob
lem, and we urge all Arkansas farmers to do everything they can to instruct others to
diversify, and get away from the cotton propoganda and raise more things that they
need themselves at home. We repeat, for the sake of emphasis: “LET ARKANSAS
FEED HERSELF.”
