O'CON-NE- R GAINS 18 POMS Suffered from Stomach Trouble and Catarrh Five or ix Years-Reg- ains Health Taking Tanlac Mrs. Jno. O'Connor, who lives at 338 East Oldham street, Knoxv'ille, Tenn., called up the Kuhlman-Chamblis- s Drug Co., recently and said she want-ed to speak to the "Tanlac" man. When tMr. Willis answered the tele-phon- s, (Mrs. O'Conner made the follow-ing remarkable statement: "I Just wanted you to know, and everybody else to know, what that Tanlac medicine has done for me. Why, I have gained eight pounds al-ready, and have only been taking It for ten days. I have Just finished tak-ing the first bottle and have, sent Mr. O'Conner back to the store this morn-ing for another bottle. This Tanlac certainly does just what yen say it will do. I begnn to eat better, sleep better and feel better from the very first dose, and the change in my c has just been wonderful. I had a good doctor before l began using Tanlac, but he didn't seem to under-stand my case, and his medicine did not seem to do me any good, so I just nt it aside and quit using it. "For the past five or six years I have been In a run down condition nervous, weak, and at times very dizzy. I had nervous headache and in-digestion perfectly awful. My stom-ach was so weak I couldn't digest the lightest kind of food. I was nervous and depressed and slept very little. I had become eo despondent over my condition I thought nothing could help me, "It certainly was lucky for me when I heard of Tanlac. It Is not like any other medicine I have triedIt seems to soothe my stomach, and is a fine tonic, too, because my appetite is good now, and I digest what I eHt. If any one had told me there was a medi-cine on earth that would make me gain eight pounds in ten days, I would have thought them crazy. "I don't believe there is another medicine on earth like Tanlac. My catarrh is also a great deal better in fact, I hardly notice It any more."

ZONE SYSTEMFOR i ARMY'S PURCHASES t - TERRITORY HAS BEEN ALLOTTED TO EACH OF THIRTEEN GEN-ERAL SUPPLY DEPOTS. - ORDNANCE EQUIPMENT READY ' i ... i ' Every Soldier Leaving for France Has Been Fully Outfitted American Merchant Take Over the Interest of German Fur Men. (From Commltte on Public Information.) Washington. A zone system for the apportionment of purchases through-out the United States and to facilitate distribution has been established by the quartermaster department. Terri-tory has been allotted to each of 13 general supply depots. The general supply depot quartermasters are charged with the duty of ascertaining the manufacturing possibilities of their cones. On the basis of reports along this line forwarded to the acting quar-termaster general, food and equip-ment for troops at the different camps ,wlll be purchased within the zone in jWhich the camp is located. Formerly nearly all of a particular 'class of supplies was purchased , through a single general supply depot. Other articles were obtained through other supply depots. Manufacturers iln sections distant from the particular supply depot buying their goods were at a disadvantage, and were unable to .compete with rivals nearer the point. Under the new system most classes of supplies will be purchased through each of the 13 depots, and manufactur-ers will be able to transuct their busi-ness through the depots nearest them. Arrangements are being competed by which the interests of German fur men, amounting to several millions of dollars, will be purchased by American merchants and the money thus paid turned into the treasury. ' Before the war broke in Europe, ac-cording to a stateueut issued by the alien property custodian, the trade of American furriers was practically noth-ing but a collecting and shipping agency for the Germans. Almost every pelt taken by American trappers went to Leipzig before It could be sold. Al-though London was the world's mar-ket, three-quarte- of the fur shipped to London from America, Russln, aid even China, went to Leipzig for dress-ing and dyeing. The Leipzig dressers and dyers were recognized as the best in the world. Each year after the fur was prepared and German merchants had fixed the price, Americans were allowed to pur-chase as much as three-fifth- s of the year's output for manufacture into garments, but in so doing tiey were forced to pay the original cost, ex-pense of dressing and dyeing, a big profit to the Germans, and a 30 per cent duty, before the furs were re-turned to America. The war deprived Germany of the chance to purchase fur in London, and limited the supply from America now also entirely cut off. According to the Leipzig correspond-ent of a Christlanla newspaper, the Leipzig spring fair showed exhibits of many substitutes and surrogates which have been placed on the market in Germany. Descriptions of some of these have been received by the Unit-ed States chamber of commerce: A surrogate for pepper is offered for sale which. Judged only by Its appear-ance, seems almost the same as real pepper. The color, odor and taste have been surprisingly well imitated. A tea is shown to which the name of "German tea" has been given. It is prepared from any one or a combina-tion of a great variety of plants, from strawberry leaves to linden blossoms. . '" Each general supply depot qunrter-- master besides ascertaining production facilities within his zone Is Instructed to recommend to the quartermaster general's office the employment of such producers as are in his judgment qunl-ifle- d to fulfill contracts. Each depot . ,; Is expected to keep Informed as to r ' market conditions and spot goods lo-cated In that zone, and when short-ages occur submit recommendations for purchase of articles which may ' " be obtained within the zone. Pwrchnses are to be made after ad-- f ; ' . vertlsement by open competitive hid- -' ding when time will permit In emer-- I geucy cases competition U desired whenever possible. The record of bids received and awards made will be open to public Inspection. ' The army ordnance department has thus far met very demand Imposed by the new program for overseas ship-ment of American troops, according to i a statement hv the rturtmint, Des- - pite the great acceleration In the send-lu- g of American forces to France, no Infantryman goes aboard ship without a United States model 1917 rifle (modi-fied Enfield), bayonet, belt haversack, pack enrrier, bandoleers, bayonet scabbard, and full mess equipment . - Toniwge la' today a limiting factor in the shipment of ordnance material y .overseas, especially because of that i - present necessity of Increasing the transport of Infantry regiments. ; Sufficient supplies of artillery 'ki French and 156-mlll- l-ff meters and American heavy railway ! artillery are already In France to I meet the present demand. Sufficient ' unuhlnsgtius are also Immediately , available for American forces In : France. A Canadian order In council pro-'-i Tides that no person, with the excep- - ! Hon of manufacturers of flour, baker, f confectioners, wholesale or retail deal- - er, or persons living at a greater dls- - i ' itance than twt miles from a licensed dealer, shall hold or have In his po-- , session or under hi control more flour, i made wholly or In part from wheni, j than Is sufficient for his ordinary re-- quiremeuts for a perbnl not exceeding j , lo days. I , Anyone living at a distance greuter thau two miles and less than Hve miles I 'from a licensed dealer may bold or ' control flour made whlly r In part ? from wheat up to an aruouut sufficient f for his ordinary requirements for a t period not exceeding 80 days. Any-'- ; one living more than live and less than ten miles from a licensed dealer may have sufficient for his ordinary re-- I qulrements up to (10 days, while a pr-- i sou Uvlug more than ten miles from such a dealer may have sufficient for his ordinary requirements for a period up to I'M days. It Is said to taste very much like gen-uine tea, but even a half dozen cups will not produce the stimulation caused by a single cup of real tea. There are any number of surrogates for marmalades. Most of them are prepared from garden vegetables In-stead of from fruits, with a minimum amount of sugar. ' Substitute soup is offered for sale, which Is said to have been prepared from the oil in berries and from pum-ice stone. It lacks, however, the one. main characteristic of soap, that of working up Into u rich, creamy lather ; otherwise It Is very good. Substitutes are also to be had for laundry blueing. Substitute "bicycle tires are some-times made of two concentric Iron rings with small springs between them. They are very serviceable on asphalt pavements, but are not exactly as noiseless nor as easy riding as gen-uine rubber tires. A large number of articles offered Tor Mile had been prepared largely or entirely from paper coarse working clothes for men and women, blouses, aprons, and other fabrics. There were paper belts which seemed capable of driving heavy loads. Many artificial and substitute leath-ers were noticed. Brass and copper articles were not seen, and attempts were made to place substitutes on the market In the form of plated wares. A committee on public Information representative In London says: London has never heard of a base-ball season before, but will get Its rhancs this year when the American baseball league gets Its schedule of games well underway. There are eight American and Canadian teams re-cruited from various organizations sta-tioned In Iondon, with games sched-uled for each Saturday during the summer. The thousands of American soldiers who may pnss through London, or be Invalided or stationed here, are In a fair way to be made to feel that Eng-land Is the next best place to home end Mint English hearts are kept warm for them. "Make England the Sammy's 'bllghty," Is the way the English press puts It In urging readers to en-tertain the American troops. "Blighty Is the war word for everything the soldier wants In Intervals of his light-ing work; the place where friends, recreation, and homelike comfort await him. . The Weekly IHnpateh recently called for suggestions for a public entertain-ment to be offered American soldiers and an Instant response made thou-sand- s of dollars available for amuse-ments and entertainments. The Idea that found greatest favor, however, was to throw open the homes of the nation to the Smiindes. An officer coimmiudliig an American squadron operating with the Itrltlsh fleet has reMrted on a late Inspection nnd speaks In high terms of the pres-ent state of efficiency In which he finds both ships and men. "Vessels show the most gratifying Improvement In battery and fire con-trol," he snld. "Our ships are smart, spick nnd span, nnd have been recipi-ents of ninny high compliments from lirltish flag officers." Prior to the war the trensury pre-pared approximately 15O,0)0 checks annually for the payment of Interest on reentered bonds of all loans, the hsue of these irj,fS checks being dlsirilmti'il through the year. In the j May payment of Interest on registered I Imiidi of the second Liberty loan more Hum twiee that number of checks ucie prepared. More than L'.ihmi.iXH) members of .Xinerlciin f.'liliiiir forces are now In-- j suied by the United States govern-ment. Any wholesale or any retail dealer j . licensed by the Canadian food board may not hold flour made wholly or In part Iroiu wheat In excess of a quantl-i- . ty sufficient for his ordinary trode re-quirements for a period exceeding 00 days. The regulation regarding sugar par-allels this save In the last clause. Manufacturers, wholesalers, or retail-v- r may not have more sugar thun Is required for a period exceeding 43 days. The Swiss federal government hai by decree fixed the maximum price ttt which farmers may sell cattle for slu tighter as well as the prices at which various qualities of butchers' meat may be retailed.

P. O. E. connected with the Elks' convention, to be held here June 5 and 6, have ar-ranged for decorating the streets from First North street soutli on Academy avenue to Center street add west to Fifth West street. The decorations will be the most extensive and attrac- - '"9 tive ever shown in Provo. The Provo T Commercial Club will offer fifty prizoe , ' for bringing down the flotilla of bal- - , loons which will be a big feature of the sports program, and it Is reported a Salt Lake member of the order will offer a big special prize tor bringing lown the "Kaiser William" balloon. Governor Simon Hamberger has oromised to be here on the sixth to review the big parade. ' , Governor Bamberger Coming ". Prior to leaving for California Tues- - . . lay Governor Simon Bamberger an-nounced that he would be in Provo dur-ing the Elks' convention and will re- - 1 view the big parade booked for June , l. With him will be many prominent . . Klks and a number of state officials. Every day new plans to make June i 3 and ii banner days for Provo are de-veloping and the local members of .'. the order are working almost day and night to make the affair the great suc-cess it deserves. The Commercial Club and city are backing them, and the outlook is certainly rosy. The "trenches" for the occasion will be built on North First Weft street and some interesting bullciing will soon be under way right In the heart of the city. Big circus tents will be erected and the inquisitive public will not really know what is under way until the big opening day. Special headquarters will be established on the tabernacle lawns, and around the court house for the different orders' and teams. FEED PROBLEM NOT SERIOUS Those Who Have Plentiful Supply of ' Home-Grow- n Feeds for Fowls Need Not Worry. The feeding problem will not be a serious one for those who have plenty of home-grow- n feeds for the fowls. But where grain, as well as other poultry feeds, must be bought, hens will be considered expensive luxuries, especially when not laying. And no reasonable poultry raiser expects hens to lay all seasons. There must be a time for molt, when the hens mast rest and prepare to lay the next clutch of eggs. There Is generally considerable waste In grain around the barn, granary and silo. If given a chance, poultry will eat grain and other feeds that might be wasted. In this way they are an asset Instead of a lia-bility, even though there are times when the hens will not be laying. But hens should not be allowed to pre-em- their feed In the troughs, at the granary or where silage is scat-tered, but should be fed generously, or allowed the scattered grain, where they will not Interfere with feeding animals. . , When Judiciously fed fowls should be profitable as any of the animate, when the value of the animals and the equipment needed are considered. If they art not, then It must be that the fowls are the unprofitable kind. If this is the case and doubtless It often Is then get rid of the unprofit-able fowls. UTAHNS ASKED TO sariiiiT Government Needs the Flour For Our Soldiers in the Trencher Local Flour MINs WiJI Buy the Wheat, Grind It Into Flour and Ship it-F- armers' Duty Is to Get the Wheat to the Mills. No people in the history of the United States have such an oppor-tunity to serve their government as the fjtah farmers have right now. Al-most half of the people in the world are hungry, women as lovable and good as our own mothers are starving, children as tweet as ours are dropping by the wayside from famine, the sol-diers in the trenches may have to give up the fight because they haven't enough food to keep up their strength. Farmers read this announcement from the Federal Foody Administrator, W. W. Armstrong, and see what he has to say about your wheat and flour : Every patriotic citizen In Utah is asked to turn in his surplus flour, and to send his wheat to the nearest mills to be ground, thus releasing mill feeds for the livestock. The cost of Imported mill feeds, oil cake etc., is So high In many portions of the state that farmers have been compelled to feed their wheat or to sacrifice their stock both Instances of criminal waste under the present war time necessity. It is absolutely a question of patriot-ism now, for the government needs the flour and the soldiers need the food. The Mormon Relief Society bus done a splendid thing In releasing over 200,000 bushels of wheat, but every single sack of flour is bought up .with rejoicing and e,very bushel of wheat sent to the mills Is recorded with Joy. . L Flour must be in original mill packages, either 24, 48, or 88 pound sacks. 2. Flour must be "one hundred per cent flour or better," commonly known as straight grude or high patent . 8. The local flous mills will buy the wheat, grind It Into flour and ship out the flour. The farmer's duty is to get his wheat te the mill, 4. " The price to be paid for flour is $4.75 per hundred pounds, net weight This will allow the mill to pay the farmer the fair market price for his wheat Farmers, should turn in their grain and take the cash. The president has fixed the price for the 1918 crop and the crop reports ludicate a much heav-le- r yield of wheat and other grains In 1918 than In 1917. There Is no reason to expect that grain will command a better price, and every farmer knows that the longer he holds his wheat the greater his risk of loss from shrinkage, vermin, damp-ness and fire. Take flour to the nearest mill or COLDS AMONG YOUNG STOCK Trouble Is Usually Caused by Poor Ventilation and Overcrowded Sleeping Quarters. Fall colds among young stock are usually caused by unventllated or over-crowded sleeping apartments. In this climate all houses should have the open front See that the young birds roost Never permit them to bunch up on the floor at night Sometimes a sudden change In the weather will start the young birds to sneezing In spite of every precaution. When this happens a heavy cold may sometimes be averted by the following treatment : Mix half a teaspoonful of spirits of camphor with a tablespoonful of sugar and dissolve the whole In two gallons of water, giving the birds no other drink for a few days. Camphorated oil or petrolatum rubbed into the nos-trils Is also recommended. CARE FOR FLOCK OF GUINEAS Nervoua, Excitable Fowls Can Bo Overcome by Gentle Treatment-Ten- der While Young. Although the nervous, excitable dis-position of the guinea cannot be over-come by gentle treatment and petting, the guinea la easily taught to return home from Its wanderings at night, If It Is so taught while young, and for this reason It Is usually better to buy eggs and hatch them under a chicken hen rather than buy old blrda and remove them to a strange place. The guinea La very tender while young, and It la beat to have them hatched during the warmer part of the season. They must have dry quar-ters and If batched under a chicken Most Powerful of Snakea.

The most dangerous of all poisons are the toxins of Infections disease: the next moet dangerous are the toxin of fatigue. Work, whether of mus-cles or nerves, produce waste prod-ucts, "ashes" which are polsooous, the ' fatigue toxins. When theaa toxins have piled up In our blood to a certain pitch we feel tired, ao that, fatigue u a form of self poisoning. When we quit work or sleep or tak food these poisons are neutralized or ' , burnt up In the system or washod and breathed out of It 1 J-- rf:x- T- jw& Excitabla Guinea Hens. ben they must be confined In a coop or box so closely that they cannot es-cape and run awny for a few days until they learn the hen's cull. After they are a few duys old they ere better If allowed to run at large to gather their own food. They muy be fed mornings and evenings, but will gather most of their food. The guinea hen hits a rather bud reputation as a mother, but It Is according to nnture for every species of animal life to know how to care for Its own young, and our experience Is that under or-dinary conditions the g'llnea hen knows better how to cure for her young than any foster mother. Of course n guinea hen, or any other hen, for that matter, cannot succeed In rear-ing a flock of young kents If they are hatched Into In the fall. Parentage and the Stat, , Parentage rightly undertaken Is a service as well as a duty to the world, carrying with It not only obligations but a claim, the strongest of claims, opon the whole community. It must be paid for like any other public serv-ice; In sny completely civilized state It must be sustained, rewarded and con-trolled.
