G. A. R. PROTESTS
BAKER SPEECH
Present Secretary of War's
Comparison of Patriots With
Villa Bandits
Washington, D. C„ Oct. 25.—Officials
of the Grand Army of this Republic
have joined forces with the Woman's
Relief Corps and other patriotic organ
izations of women in protesting against
the utterances of Secretary of War
Raker comparing the soldiers of the
Revolutionary War to the bandit Villa's
followers in Mexico.
Colonel McElroy, publisher of the
official organ of the Grand Army of
the Republic, and one of the most
widely known officials of the organ
ization. has demanded that the Jft-eei
dent take summary action to disavow
the utterances of Secretary Baker.
Colonel McElroy said there was no
doubt that Grand Army posts would
take action immediately.
"We are in receipt of letters and
resolutions," he said, "that, have been
adopted in Brooklyn and West Vir
ginia and understand that similar ac
tion has been taken elsewhere. The
President needs to set himself and his
administration right in the eyes of the
people and to do it quickly."
"I Felt Rotten All
Over" Says B. Elston
Couldn't Eat, Couldn't Sleep, Couldn't
Work, But Master Medicine Put
Him In lighting Trim.
"I had been suffering for a long
time with liver trouble, sluggish liver
I guess you would call it," says Byron
Elston, an expert steel worker of
Steelton, Pa. "I felt rotten all over.
1 couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, ex
cept on my right side and 1 couldn't
work.
"I was chuck full of gas all the
time and I put in some mighty mean
days and miserable nights.
"I tried this and 1 tried that to see
if 1 could get hold o-f something that
would brace me up but none of the
medicines I tried did me any good
and I had about given up in disgust
when I heard about Tanlac and the
people it. had helped out of the same
sort of trouble that I had.
"Well, I began taking it and it has
made the biggest kind of a change in
my condition. I feel fine. X haven't
felt so good in months.
"My stomach has been strengthened
up until it digests my meals as it
should, my liver has been waked up
and is working properly and I eat so
much that I don't, know where I find
room to put it all.
"Sleep! X sleep like a log and I
wake up every morning feeling as
fresh and vigorous as if I was brand
new and I really enjoy working.
"That's what Tanlac did for me and
f know it will do it for anybody who
is troubled ai I was."
Tanlac, • the famous reconstructive
tonic is now being introduced here at
Gorgas Drug Store, where the Tanlac
man is meeting the people and ex
plaining the merits of this master
medicine.
Resinol

itching skin
"'I had a terrible case of eczema which
covered both my hands. My fingers
began to itch, then tiny water blisters
came which formed sores all over my
hands. I suffered for two years, getting
very little rest or sleep because of the
terrible itching." I usea very many rem
edies, but they all failed to give me any
relief. I tried Resinol Ointment ana
i Resinol Soap and got immediate relief,
my hands were completely cured.
They are soft and white and without a

COST OF MILK IS
GIVEN ATTENTION
State Calculators Show What
It Costs the Farmers to Put
Out Their Product
Many farmers throughout the State
nave started to figure on the actual
cost of production of milk, following
the movement for better prices for the
farmer, says the bulletin of the State
Department of Agriculture issued to
day. -"In many cases it has been shown
that with the increased cost of feed
und labor, the old prices paid to the
tormers did not pay for the produc
tion of the milk," says the bulletin.
"In many parts of the State farmers
were discouraßed and were quitting
the dairy business.
"The following statement furnrshed
to the Department of Agriculture by a
Western Pennsylvania farmer of the
investments, stock and equipment of
a 400-acre farm devoted to dairying
for the past twenty years will show the
consumers of dairy products of the
state the real conditions of the dairy
men and on which they are basing
their claim for an increase in the price
of milk. The statement covers every
item that goes into or is invested in
the above mentioned farm:
Four hundred acres of land . . .$32,000
Eighty cows 5,600
Equipment (including improved
farm machinery) 4,500
Total $42,100
Interest on investment $2,560
Labor 2,000
Depreciation on equipment at
IS per cent 540
Depreciation on value of cows. 800
Taxes 200
Insurance on buildings ....... 75
Corn silage 980
Ninety tons of hay at sl2 per
ton 1,080
Eighty tons of grain at S3O per
ton 2,400
Twenty tons of straw bedding . 120
Pastii re 800
Sundries (light, utensils, etc.). 50
Total $11,605
"Considering the other side, the
above herd of cows produced in twelve
months 60,000 gallons of milk at an
average price of 1 4 cents per gallon.
Sixty thousand gollans of milk
at 14 cents per gallon $8,400
Seventy calves at $lO per head. 700
Five hundred tons of manure at
75 cents per ton 375
Total $9,475
"It will be shown on the above men
tioned farm when counting interest on
the investment and the depreciation on
value of stock and farm equipment,
the loss Is $1,530, based on the prices
prevailing for the year 1915. After
keeping a correct account of expenses
of delivery to both wholesale and re
tail consumers, the statement shows
an average expense for delivery of 1 %
cents per quart to wholesale trade and
3 cents per quart to retail customers."
BIDS TO RIPRAP"
THE RIVER SLOPES
[Continued From First Page]
in the meadows near the county
almshouse.
Preparing Specifications
Specifications and blue-prints are
now being prepared so that no time
may be lost in advertising for pro
posals immediately upon the return
to the city of Park Commissioner E.
Z. Gross and City Solicitor D. S.
Seitz. Prior to leaving for Easton
to attend the Pennsylvania Presby
tery gathering, Commissioner Gross
said that he would consult with Mr.
Seitz as to whether the city is leg
ally required to ask for bids. Mr.
Seitz however, is in New Haven with
his son, a Yale university student.
Both officials are expected home by
the latter part of the week.
If it be decided to ask for bids it
is probable that the work cannot be
started before November 1 as Park
Commissioner Gross had expected, as
the request for sealed proposals must
be advertised for at least ten days.
Whether or not the weather might in
terfere with the completion of the
whole job before winter, sets in is
problematical although it is generally
believed that a great deal of the work
can be completed before freezing pre
vents.
Advertise 10 Days
In the absence of Park Commission
er Gross, Assistant Superintendent
Forrer discussed briefly the possibil
ities for an early start of the work,
the method of procedure and so on.
"Plans and specifications are being
prepared now so that we can ba
ready to ask for bids as soon £ts Mr.
Gross and Mr. Seitz return. I under
stand that Mr. Gross wants to consult
Mr. Seitz about* this problem first.
Whether we can get under way by No
vember 1, however, is doubtful. We
must advertise ten days.
"I doubt, too," continued Mr.
Forrer, "as to whether two months of
work could possibly be completed be
fore tlio 'snow flies' or before the
ground freezes.
, At Last
"That the job can be started and be
well under way within the next month
or so, is certainly assured. The sug
gestion for obtaining bids on the work
as a whole as well as on the block
unit plan, was made to overcome any
possible difficulty that might be met
with if the prices are too high.
"Park Commissioner Gross has
decided to riprap the river front
slopes and our department is arrang
ing to go ahead with the work at the
earliest possible moment."
Pays $20,000 Mortgage
With One Potato Crop
Jamesburg, N. J., Oct. 25.—A $13,-
000 potato crop on a 48-acre farm is
the banner yield for this year re
ported by J. Lester Ferris, of Rhode
Hall. The total crop was 13,600 bush
els, or an average of over 280 bushels
to the acre and tho average selling
price was 98 cents a bushel.
Ilenry Cross, of Holmdel, had an
average of 116 barrels an acre on
eighty acres and paid off a $20,000
mortgage with the proceeds of the
crop.
" Solemnly Declare I was
Never Dead; Am Not Now"
Seattle, Wash., Oct. 25. Arthur
George, a painter, appeared at the
county clerk's office recently and filed
a solemn declaration that he was not
dead. He objected to the probate
court's action in declaring him dead
and turning over $750 worth of Seat

after he failed to claim his property
or his wife after seven years' ab
