CORNS LIFT OUT

You say to the drug store man,
“Give me a small bottle of freezone."
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from one’s feet.
A few’ drops of this new ether com-
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness in-
stantly, and soon the entire com or
callus, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This .new way to rid one’s feet of
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that freezone dries in
a moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn or callus without irritating the
surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn’t any freezone
tell him to order a small bottle from
his wholesale drug house for you.—adv.

Waslnghton.—The administration
$800,000,000 defense budget began to
take final shape In congress when the
house passed the fortifications bill
carrying a total of more than $51,000,-
000 for coast defenses and the house
naval committee completed its 1918
naval appropriation bill with a total
of more than $351,000,000.
The army appropriations bill, the
third element of the program, still is
In the house military committee which
Is expected to complete it next week.
Estimates for the army reach a total
of more than $360,000,000 exclusive of
numerous deficiency measures re-
sulting from the border mobilization
and the rising cost of war materials.
Only One Bill Pending.
The only military legislation pend-
ing is the universal service bill be-
fore a senate sub-committee which
will conclude its hearing this week.
It is not expected that congress will
take any action on the universal train-
ing bill at t^is session.
The naval bill carries a total of
$351,433,245 as against $313,000,000
last year, and provides for the con-
struction of three 42,000-ton battle-
ships at a fotal cost of $28,178,592
each; one battle cruiser at a cost of
$26,694,496; three scout cruisers at
$6,746,145 each; fifteen destroyers at
$1,748,612 each; one destroyer tender
at $2.808,000; one submarine tender
at $2,199,400, and eighteen 800-ton
type submarines at $1,434,093 each.
The program is that recommended by
the department and represents one-
half of the remaining portion of th«
three-year program approved last
year.
Large Submarines Needed.
The committee departed from the
department’s recommendation only In
the type of submarines provided for,
NO small coast defense submersibles
are authorized, the committee having
decided against the small 400 to 600-
ton type of boat, such as those now in
service.
Taking up the .program of getting
under construction the four battle
cruisers authorized last year, the com-
mittee raised the limit of cost for the
hull and machinery to $19,000,000
from $16,500,000. Department of-
ficials believe all four vessels can be
placed with private bidders at that fig-
ure. The committee also heeded, how-
ever, Secretary Daniel’s recommenda-
tions that navy yards be fitted to build
large numbers of capital ships, author-
izing the expenditure of an additional
$12,000,000 for that purpose, in ths
event the department is unable to
make satisfactory contracts for any
vessel in the present bill or left ovqr
from the preceding measure. This
would make available a total of $18,-
000,000 for equipping navy yards.
Appointments Increased.
For the three scout cruisers still
awaiting satisfactory bids, the com-
mittee raised the cosf for hull and ma-
chinery to $6,000,000 from $5,000,000.
Another new provision of the bill
raises the number of appointments an-
nually at Annapolis to be made from
the enlisted personnel of the navy
from 25 to 100. Appointments may be
made whenever vacancies occur.
The new battleships will be the
most powerful war vessels ever built.
WHEAT CROP
United States Settlers Becoming
Rich on Western Canada
Lands.
The large number of United States
settlers coining to the Western prov-
inces of Canada are easily explained
by the case of Mr. C. Lacy, late of
Wisconsin and later of Alberta.
Mr. Lacy come to Canada from Wis-
consin In the summer of 1914 with
$1,500 available cash in his possession.
He rented n half-section of partly im-
proved land In Alberta and commenced
summer fallowing. lie broke 300 acres
with oats, 20 with barley, and 200 with
wheat. Also he had two cows and 20
head of young live stock. He was for-
tunate in buying feed at a bargain and
managed to rent the adjoining quurter-
section us posture.
A few w’eeks ago he decided to real-
ize his profits—and they amounted to
$0,000 absolutely clear from the crop
and the stock.
W. J. Winstead, of Brooks, Alberta,
says;
“I landed In Brooks, March 18th,
1910, with one car of household effects,
and nine head of good horses, and less
than $500 in cash. I have put $1,500
worth of improvements on my farm. I
have 31 head of cattle, 16 head of
horses, debts all paid, a new automo-
bile, and a good, stiff bank account.
At present prices, I can cash in for
$16,000. I am well satisfied, and ex-
pect to double this next year.
I have threshed altogether 7,000
bushels of No. 1 Northern wheat from
two hundred acres, which went from
24 to 56 bushels per acre.
Seven thousand bushels of wheat, all
No. 1 Northern, tw’o thousand bushels
of oats, 670 bushels of flax, 700 bush-
els of barley—all at market prices—
well, figure this out for yourself at the
market price. I sold 3,100 bushels of
wheat at $1.V4%, am holding the re-
mainder for $2.00. Also all the oats,
barley and flax for higher prices.”
Intelligent farming pays always ac-
cording to Alex. Wattle, a prosperous
farmer. Some figures to prove his con-
tention that he has “made good.”
In 1914 Mr. Wattle threshed 40 bush-
els to the acre from a 30-acre crop.
This sold for $1.60% per bushel, which,
after deducting seed, labor, twine,
threshing and freight, left a clear profit
of $50 per acre, or a total of $1,500.
From last year’s crop of 34 acres, just
sold, he received after freight had been
deducted, $1,876.94.—Advertisement.
