    THE "SQUARE"
CHEW-THE
BEST CHEW
"American Navy" is the Biggest
Chewing Tobacco Value
in the World
JMCH, SWEET, MILD, MELLOW
You get more genuine tobacco en
joyment and more real benefit out of a
chew of good plug tobacco than out of
any other form in which tobacco can be
made.
Tobacco like "scrap" can't have as
much rich, sweet, fruity leaf-flavor in
it as plug because it's made only of leaf
"cuttings." And it can't hald its fresh
ness and flavor as long as plug, because
it's loosely packed.
Chew properly pressed plugs made
of the whole leaf like American Navy
and you'll find it not only far more
tasty and satisfying, but also an aid to
digestion and health.
All the rich juices stored up by Na
ture in the leaf are retained in the
American Navy plug, so that every
chew overflows with the sweet, fresh,
distinctive flavor that has made Amer
ican Navy famous.
A savory chew of American Navy
dove-tails to perfection with the day's
work. It puts an edge on your appe
tite and gives you genuinely wholesome
and lasting satisfaction.
Every man with a real tobacco taste
who once tries American Navy chews
it right along.
Big, generous cuts for 5c and 10c.
WHAT DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT
A PHYSICIAN'S ADVICE
"Indigestion and practically all form!,
of stomach trouble are. nine times out
of ten. due to acidity: therefore stom
ach sufferers should, whenever possible,
avoid eating food that is acid in its na
ture, or which by chemical action in the
stomach develops acidity. Unfc unate
ly, such a rule eliminates most foods
which are pleasant to the taste as well
as those which are rich in blood, flesh
and nerve building properties. This is
the reason why dyspeptics and stomach
sufferers are usually so thin, emaciat
ed and lacking in that vital energy
which can only come from a well fed
body.
For the benefit of those sufferers who
have been obliged to exclude from their
diet all starchy, sweet or fatty food,
and are trying to keep up a miserable
existence on gluten products, I would
suggest that you should try a meal oi
any food or foods which you may like,
in moderate amount, taking immedi
ately afterwards a teaspoonful of bisur
ated magnesia in a little hot or cold |
water. This will neutralize any acid '
which may be present, or which may be !
formed, and instead of the usual feel- !
lng of uneasiness and fullness, you
will find that your food agrees with
you perfectly.
I know of nothing bettM- than plain
blsurated magnesia as a food correc
tive and antacid. It has no direct ac
tion on the stomach; but by neutraliz
ing the acidity of the food contents,
and thus removing the source of the
acid irritation which inflames the deli
cate stomach lining, it does more than
could possibly be done by any drug or
medicine .
As a physician, I believe in the use
of medicine whenever necessary, but I
feust admit that I cannot see the sense
Z! dosing an inflamed and irritated
stomach with drugs instead of getting
rid of the acid—the cause of all the
trouble. Get a little bisurated mag
nesia from your druggist, eat what vou
want at your next meal, take some of
the bisurated magnesia as directed
above, and see if I'm not right."—Ad

EAT LESS MEAT
UNO TAKE SALTS
IF KIDNEYS HURT
Says a tablespoonful of Salts
flushes Kidneys, stopping
Backache.
Meat forms Uric Acid, which
excites Kidneys and Weakens
Bladder.
Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some form
or other, says a well-known authority,
because the uric acid in meat excites
the kidneys; they become overworked;
get sluggish; clog up and cause all
sorts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu
matic twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irri
tation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy:
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids
,n the urine so it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes A delightful effervescent llthia
water drink which millions of men
and women take now and then to keep
the kidneys and urinary organs clean,
'.hus avoiding serious kidney disease.

AMAZING BUT RARELY SUSPECTED
TRUTHS ABOUT THE THINGS YOU EAT
AU 0 r P ey'^ h VcCaAn b r By ALFRED W. McCANN
The remarkable testimony Invoked to
prevent the conviction of a dealer
in milk containing 48,000,000 bac
teria per cubic centimeter indicates
to public health authorities Uie ne
cessity of organizing; all the scien
tific forces available in order to
meet the highly organized defense
which large milk concerns have con
structed around stale, dirty and dis
ease-spreading milk, the commercial
value of which seems to be greater
than milk known to be pure, clean
tuid safe.
Dr. Lee 11. Maynard's testimony In
the Gregg milk case Included the fol
lowing:
"The presence of 48,000,000 bacteria
per cubic centimeter milk does not in
dicate that such milk is decomposed or
filthy. The presence of 21,000 B. coll
does not. indicate contamination with
animal excrement. There Is hardly a
dairyman in the country who is not on
to the trick of straining out all visible
dirt.' -
Maynard admitted he was hired by
the mi llt dealers.
Professor Samuel T. Prescott's testi
mony Included the following:
"I could not say that milk was dirty
unless I could actually see the dirt. I
would not call milk filthy unless It
smelled so and tasted so. and unless
there was visible cow manure and
other dirt, to be seen In it with the
naked eye.
"The presence of B. coll In milk does
not Indicate contamination with fecal
matter. All certified milk ever pro
duced contains B coli. You cannot say
that milk containing 48,000,000 bac
teria per cubic, centimeter either de
composed or filthy.
"It is impossible to tell anything
about the presence of putrefying or
ganisms in this, milk from tho strep
tococci and B. coll found In it."
After admitting that if the cow is
dirty with manure and the milker's
hands filthy there will be larger num
bers of bacteria in the milk, ho de
clared that the presence of bacteria
meant nothing.
On cross-examination he confessed
he wa.s working on the side for milk
dealers and that In spite of the fact
that he was defending milk containing
4 8,000,000 bacteria, the bacteria limit
in Boston, his own city, was 500,000 in
ordinary milk and 10,000 in certified
milk.
Professor P. G. Heinemann's testi
mony included the following:
"Milk containing 48,000,000 bacteria
is not decomposed or filthy. You can
tell filthy milk only by looking at it,
smelling it and tasting it. lam jiot a
physician, but I would not object to
using milk containing over 1,000,000
bacteria or any number of B. coli for
infants. Infants' milk ought to be
boiled to kill the germs and make it
more digestible. Milk cannot be pro
duced without filth in it."
Heinemann's testimony was to the
effect that there Is. and can be. no use
for certified milk for infants when any
old kind of boiled milk is cheaper and
more digestible.
"In my private work for milk deal
ers I never make any tests for B. coli,
because their presence in milk has no
significance. Any attempt to regulate
the number of bacteria in milk is
ridiculous."
Professor John Gordan's testimony
included the following:
"Bacteriological tests of milk are of
no value. The farmer strains all the
dirt out of his milk. Milk containing
48,000,000 bacteria is very good milk.
Bacteriological examinations are mis
leading and B. coli are not an index of
anything. It does health boards no
good to know anything about the pres
ence of bacteria in milk."
He admitted he worked for the milk
dealers.
Dr. John A. O'Donoghue's testimony
included the following:
"The presence of bacteria in milk in
30,000 FIRMS
WILL MOBILIZE
Biggest Plants Ready to Aid
U. S. if Country Goes
to War
Washington, 1). C., Sept. 21.—N0
fewer than 30,000 manufactories and
firms iri this country, each doing a
business of more than SIOO,OOO an
nually, can be mobilized for industrial
preparedness in case of war. This was
the most important announcement co
incident with the legal organization
here of the Navy Consulting Board,
consisting of eminent inventors and
scientists.
Howard Coffin, the automobile en
gineer, reported to the two score ex
perts and to Secretary of the Navy
Daniels that the country has been can
vassed by a committee with the result
indicated. Each of the firms or manu
factories can furnish munitions or sup
plies.
Headed by Thomas A. Edison and
including such men as Elmer A.
Sperry, Miller R. Hutchinson, Law
rence Addicks, Hudson Maxim, A. M.
Hunt, Peter Cooper Hewitt, Frank J.
Sprague and W. R. Whitney, the board
formally organized. The officers al
ready decided upon were elected as
follows:
Thomas A. Edison, chairman; W. L.
Saunders and Peter Cooper Hewitt,
vice-chairmen, and Thomas Robins,
secretary.
Annapolis Favored for laboratory •
Tho chief subject under consid
eration was the situation of the
$1,500,000 naval experimental labora
tory, provided for in the naval appro
priation bill last month. Thirteen sites
were mentioned, including Haverstraw
Point, Croton Point, Fisher's Island,
Staten Island and points in Chesapeake
Bay and around Norfolk. But An
napolis was the place most favored.
There is already a laboratory there.
The decision was deferred.
The board has now an official status.
Each member took the oath of al
legiance. The members have been
paying their expenses out of their own
pockets, but tho board will now enjoy
a $25,000 annual appropriation.
Members of the board present in ad
dition to those already named were R.
S. Woodward, Arthur G. Webster,
Spencer Miller, William Leßoy Em
met, Matthew B. Sellers, Andrew D.
Riker and Blon J. Arnold. Four mem
bers, Benjamin G. Lnmme, Alfred Cra
ven, Benjamin B. Thayer and J. W.
Richards, were absent.
DR. SHAW IN AUTO CRASH
General Secretary William Shaw, D.
D., of the United Society of Christian
Endeavor, Boston, met. with a serious
automobile accident while out driv
ing with his wife in the White Moun
tains. He and Mrs. Shaw were near
ing North Woodstock, N. H„ when
the driver rounded a corner too fast,
striking soft sand, and the car over
turned. Mrs. Shaw was uninjured,
but Dr. Shaw received a compound
fracture, and his right thumb crush
ed, the bone being shattered and the
artery cut. He was taken to .he gen
eral hospital at Lowell, Mass., where
ho is resting as comfortable as can
be' expected.
respect to cleanliness has no sig
nificance. I don't know whether cer
tified milk containing less than 10,0*0
bacteria Is any better than milk con
taining 48,000,000."
Taken oIT his guard, he said: "In
(he milk of dirty, unwashed cows I
found 300,000 bacteria per cubic centi
meter. In the milk of clean cows 1
found only 200 bacteria per cubic cen
timeter."
In a few minutes he again said;
"Bacteria in milk have no significance.
Nobody pays any attention to the law
in Boston. which limits bacteria to
500,000. There are no prosecutions
there."
Dr. John D. Hlrd's testimony In
cluded the following:
"Cow's manure passing Into milk is
perfectly purified. The portion that
goes Into solution with the milk Is per
fectly pure. There is nothing objec
tionable in that. It is the same ma
terial," Baits, you would get In a drug
store. You cannot call any food de
composed unless It smells bad, tastes
bad, or both."
Reminded that many poisonous
ptomaines have no odor and no flavor,
he continued: "'I say that cow maunre
in milk up to the point of giving it a
brown color is not objectionable. Half
rotten ducks are good food. You can't
say when decomposition Is bad."
The testimony of Gregg himself,
tho prosecutod dealer. Included the
following:
"I serve 1,700 gallons of milk a day.
All this milk comes to me from fifty
flve shippers in different states. It is
all dumped into a vat and pumped up
stairs into a pasteurizer. The pas
teurizer is always in operation except
when it Is out of order. lam In no
position to refuse dirty milk if the
farmers insist on shipping it. There
fore, J. have never tried to find out if
it is good by a bacteriological ex
amination."
As the Jurymen filed out of the box
the writer said to one of them: "Now
i that you have been discharged, you
! are at liberty to speak. Do you care
; to tell me if the Jury's attitude of mind
is in favor of dirty milk as described
by the experts or against it?"
To the consternation of Dr. W. C.
Woodward, health commissioner of
Washington, and Prosecuting Attor
neys Howe and Cobb, of the United
States Department of Justice, who
were with me, the Juror replied:
"These experts have shown us very
clearly that this question of dirty milk
is a purely academic one. It is per
fectly plain that we are now drinking
dirty milk and will always continue to
drink dirty milk. We now understand
the folly of these scientific bacteria
tests and certainly under the circum
stances we would not have convicted
the defendant, one of our own towns
men, on any such misleading evidence
as that which' the authorities ad
vanced."
It is evident from the private re
mark of the Juryman that the verdict
would have been In favor of dirty milk
if the trial had been permitted to go
to a conclusion.
These facts, of deadly significance to
the cause of public health, are suf
ficient In themselves to arouse the
people to an appreciation of the neces
sity of honest milk legislation honestly
enforced.
Notwithstanding the manner in
which they throw a brilliant light upon
conditions the very existence of which
is not even suspected by the average
housewife, they are as nothing com
pared with the facts about to follow.
Before considering them it must be
noted that Gregg, despite the vast
array of expensive talent called upon
to defend him, came Into court July 15,
1914, entered a plea of gtfilty and was
fined sls.
Thus vanished for a short time the
character of testimony which had been
invoked to prove him not guilty.
TOBACCO GROWERS
MADE RICH BY WAR
Brings More Than a Million Into
Pockets of Lancaster
County Farmers
Lancaster, Pa., Sept. 21. More
than an additional million dollars will
go into the pockets of Lancaster county
farmers this year than last, as a result
of the great tobacco crop which is now
being harvested. For many years the
crop has meant about $3,000,000 an
nually to the growers, but this year
as a result of the shortage of supply
of old tobacco the price of the crop
in the field has taken a sudden jump,
and it is estimated that it will bring
the farmers a round $4,000,000.
The European war has been respons
ible for the big advance in price. Large
quantities of old tobacco were shipped
abroad for the French and British
armies and there Is virtually no old
leaf in Lancaster county.
I.ast year farmers were getting 3
and 10 cents a pound, while to-day the
price is almost doubled. Dealers "have
been paying as high as 1G and 17 cents
a pound, and it is predicted the price
may go to 20 cents.
There are about 20.000 acres plant
ed in tobacco this year and there are
few poor crops.
The increased! jirlce for tobacco is al
ready being felt in other lines of busi
ness. Lumber dealers' through the
county say that there will be many
new barns and dwelling houses built
next spring, while the automobile deal
ers report a brisk Inquiry for machines
for spring delivery.

When the birds begin to molt the beef

The sooner the molt is finished, the
earlier will the birds commence winter

It is well to begin culling out the

While culling over the poultry it is
well to apply ointment to overcome
lice and nits, the eggs from which the
lice develop. Ointment is better than
