Give Your Farm a Name.
The advantage of having the farm
home named and using the same on
business stationery has often been
discussed. Desirable as that has been
heretofore, a law passed by the legislature recently adjourned, makes it
still more desirable, since it is designed to prevent a confusion of the
country. This law provides that owners of farms may have registered with
the county clerk any name-they may
select for their farm or ranch. And
gives them exclusive right to use such
name in any county. This will prevent confusing names to a very desirable degree and will also enhance the
value of the name of the farm as a
business trade-mark.
It has been demonstrated in many
instances that where products are
grown upon the farm which may be so
packed as to reach the consumer in
original packages, it pays to have the
name of the farm where the commodity was grown on the package, particularly if the quality is kept at a high-
standard at all times, since customers
using a satisfactory article so marked
will be sure to want more of the same
thing. It would be the parr, of wisdom for Michigan farmers to take advantage of this law when it goes into
effect and register their farm trademark with the county clerk, and in
tlie meantime it would be well to consider suitable names for the purpose.
Dysentery is always serious and often
a dangerous disoase, but it can be cured.
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera aud Diarrhoea Remedy has cured it even when
malignant and epidemic. For sale hy

Sewer and Water Projecto Under Good
"    Headway With Competent Crews
on the Job.
Work on the sewer is nicely under
way. For the past several days a
small force, though as large as would
be practicable, has been digging the
trenches and laying the large sewer
pipe from the river toward town.
They have encountered much quick
sand which has made their advancement necessarily slow, but what has
been done would stand the most rigid
inspection.
Mr. Conklin of Gr^ind Rapids, lore-
man on the job, has had many years
experience at such work, and Saline
will profit much by reason of his being employed here. He takes pride
in his work and the reputation his
firm enjoys, and will permit nothing
that would tend to detract from either.
-By the time the paper is off t'he press
it is expected to have the digging machine at work on the streets abdut
town, and from then on the work will
move rapidly toward completion.
A-visit to the north end of town discloses much that has been accomplished on the water project. The
giant digger has been put at work and
is moving along its way at a satisfactory rate. Laying of pipe follows
closely and the trenches will be refilled as rapidly as practicable, making.,
much less muss than one would imagine and not interfering materially
with street traffic.
The reservoir, which will hold upwards of 60,000 gallons, is rapidly
nearing completion, the foundation
for the pumping station is laid, and
woi-k on the foundation for the stand-
pipe is progressing favorably.
As we go to press on this side of the,
paper water pipes have been laid from
the well to a point in front of Ford's
lumber yard.
Some Symptoms of the Disease Which
Should Be Heeded.
Tuberculosis kills more people than
any other disease. Every three minutes someone in the United States
dies from consumption. Every day
5S4 persons are dying- from this disease' Every year more persons die
in the United'State.s from consumption than died in this country from
yellow fever in a period of one hundred and fifteen years. Three or four
time.s as many people die every year
in the United States from this disease
as were killed in bQth armies during
the Civil War. Every seventh person
who dies, dies from consumption.
There are a number of symptoms
which might lead a person to suspect
that he has pulmonary tuberculosis:
loss of weight, loss of appetite, loss of
color, fever in the afternoon, cough
and expectoration lasting for several
weeks, spitting of blood in the sputum,
chills, night sweats, difficulty in
breathing-, and pains in the chest. In
incipient tuberculosis tlie commonest
symptoms are loss of weight with
cough and expectoration. When
these symptoms occur it does not necessarily mean that tuberculosis exists, but it would be wise for a person
having them to'consult a physician.

Michigan Crops Arc Up
To The Standard.
Crop reports for Michigan, prepared
in connection with national crop reports, indicate improvement rather
than decrease in conditions with the
exception of the oat crop. Not being
a spring wheat state Michigan escapes
the heavy loss reported in that crop.
The average of winter wheat in
Michigan is 2.7 per cent of the national acreage. Condition of the crop follows: July 1, 1913, S2; July 1, 1912,
53; ten-year average, 79.
Corn shows an acreage of 101 per
cent of 1912, or 1,611,000. The condition July 1 was: This year, So; last
year, 72; ten-year average, 81.
Oats acreage is 4 per cent of that in
the United States. The condition is:
July 1,1913, 77; June 1,1912, 83; ten-
year average, S6.
The Difference Between "The Summer
Girl" and."The Summer Woman."
While the former is having, a good
time, the. latter is too often dragging
around nervous, run down, tired out,
with aching back and weary limbs,
sleepless and wretched. Often it is Kidney trouble, not female trouble, and Foley Kidney Pills are a direct and positive
help for the condition.    O. C. Wheeler.
