THE FARMERS' SIDE A Chicago Editor Says Canadian ran. men* Would ba Routed In a Contest with America Writing on the prospect. of freer trade between Canada and the 'United States, the commercial editor of the Chicago Tri b1311.13 points out as follows, the relative advantages to be gained by the farmers on either siCe of the herder: "Foodstuffs can be grown in both the United States and Canada. This country, thanks to its greater area of cultivable land and its much. larger number of farmers -12 to 1 --is much the larger pro- ducer. . . It it were a question of the farmers of one country capturing the markets and driving out of business the farmers of the other. those of Canada would be routed in the unequal contest. . . . The American farmer does not realize the extent to which those duties have closed the Canadian markets against lain. As it is he sells some of his potatoes, onions, hay, etc., to the Cana - diem They are, indeed, or and on more liberal purchasers ,of American farm pro. duets than we are of theirs. With the . duties removed they would buy more. Consider the farmer as a fruit grower. The reciprocity agreement sweeps away the Canadian duties on the apples of New York, the peaches of Delaware, the apra cots of California, and the melons of leorgia, and the stfawberries of Louisi-. ana and Illinois. The market gardeners I this country from Florida to Vermont would be gainers by Reciprocity.

There's been a lot of "guessing" about rheumatism and rheumatic pains gener- ally, but you can be dead sure that, little pain across your back came'from de- creased kidney action. The kidney's duty is to filter the blood --take out the impurities collected by the returning bleed stream—do it just like absorbent eaten in a funnel filters the impurities from polluted wa:ter. When the kidneys are not working you are bound for one of two courses—Dia- betes and Bright's Disease or Rheuma- tism, Lumbago and Sciatica. -The for- mer course is usually fatal, and the latter always painful, but you need'not have either, as they, both can be easily pre- vented. The very best prescription for kid- ney troubles is Nyal's Stone Root Com- pound. It is no "patent" medicine, but a scientific prescription:composed of Stoneroot, Buchu, Juniper and other remedies of proved value, More than that, it has been proved by thousands who have had glad relief from its use. There's nothing quite so miserable as. the dragging, results of sick kidneys. You are trifling with y ur own future when you neglect so simple a precaution, as a pleasant home treatment with Nyal's Stone Root Compound when results are so certain." a It soothes bladder irritation, gives you rest and comfort at night, and makes life once more enjoyable. The kidneys, liver and bladder are all dependent upon one another, and Nyal's Stone Root Compound is particularly designed to help them. all. Sold and Guaran?eed by w. S. , R. Holmes, J.
