in theaters in other cities throughout

lOIIS theatrical success at the same

Too Many Kinds of
Potatoes Grown Now
The State Department of Agri
culture lias issued a warning tliat
there are too many varieties of po
tatoes grown in Pennsylvania. The
lack or uniformity is declared the
chief obstacle to tlie business of the
| State in the vegetable because it pre
vents large lots being made up or
any one standard variety. The De
partment estimates that farmers of
the State were holding 7.308,000
business or 29.5 per cent, of the
1918 crop on March 1. which is
3,000,000 less than on March 1, 1918.
I The wheat holdings on March 1
were 14.5 per cent, or 3.758,000
bushels, or 2,000,000 less than on
the same day last year.
Tlie wheat and rye. crops are re
ported in better shape than known
in years.
According to the department the
record of leaders for 1918.crops and
livestock was Lancaster, wheat, corn,
tobacco and ' horses; York, hay,
mules, and swine: Berks, rye ami
oats; buckwheat: Centre,
barley; Chester, milch cows; Craw
ford, other cattle; Lehigh, potatoes,
and Washington, sheep.

Much Gasoline Sent
to Allies Last Year
Washington, March 26. "We
II oa tied to victory oil a wave of
oil." said a British admiral in the
I first enthusiastic moments follow
ing the armistice.
Just how much truth there is in
this hurrah statement has just been
disclosed by Van. H. • Manning, di-
I rector of the Bureau of Mines, l)e
-j partment of the Interior, in the
! yearly statement on the production
|of gasoline in this country,
i in 1916, before the United States
j entered the war, according to the
Istutement the production of gasoline
! was a little short of lifty million
barrels. In 1917, when war ac
! tlvity was accelerated by the en
| try of the United States into the
! war, the production of gasoline had
| increased to nearly sixty-eight mil
! lion barrets, ah increase of more
| than fifty thousand barrels a day.
It was thought by many that this
I must be the peak of American pa-
1 1riotic effort, but in 1918, when the
war had assumed even greater pro
portions, the production of gaso
| line was over eighty-five million
barrels, an Increase for the year
of more than seventeen million bar
rels. The daily increase for this
year over the record-breaking year
of 1917 was about forty-seven thou
sand barrels for each of the 365
days, or almost as much more as
the increase of the previous year.
How this country sent an ever in
creasing flood of this gasoline to
the allies and to friendly countries
is seen in the export figures. In
1916 there were 8,473,102 barrels
of gasoline sent abroad. In 1917
this amount had increased to 9,-
901,877 barrels, an increase of
about 4,000 barrels a day. In 191S
these exports hud reached a totat
of 13,312,508 barrels, an increase
of nearly 10,000 barrels a day over
the year 1917.
It is the opinion of Air. Manning
that no single industry in this
country of so important a nature
ever made such a showing in a sin
] gle year, and he doubts if the fu
ture will ever show such a record
of achievement.

The most satisfactory results have
been obtained in combating Dia

rules and the judicious use of War

herbal preparation used with
marked success for more than forty
years.
Following is a letter from a grate
ful user:

Catarrh Is
Not Incurable
BUT YOU CAN'T RELY ON
SPRAYS AND IN

There is no use permitting
yourself to be deceived. Per
haps. like thousands of others
afflicted with Catarrh, you are
about ready to believe that the
disease is incurable, and that
you are doomed to spend the
remainder of your days hawk
ing and spitting, with no relief
in sight from inflamed and
stopped-up air passages that
make the days miserable and
the nights sleepless.
Of course this all depends
upon whether or not you are
willing to continue the old-time,
make-shift methods of treat
ment that you and many other
sufferers have used for years
with no substantial results. If
you are still content to depend
upon the use of sprays, douches,
inhalers, jellies and other like
remedies by themselves, that are
applied to the surface and can
not reach below it, then make
up your mind now that your Ca
tarrh will remain a life com
panion and will follow you to
the grave.
You must realize that the dis
ease itself, and not its symp
toms, is what you have to cure.
Of course you know that when
you are cured of any disease its
symptoms will disappear. Ca
tarrh manifests itself bv inflam
