Springfield.--Two bills were Introduced in the mtnois legislature the past week providing for the deep waterway plan and known as administration measures. The bill was presented in the upper house by Senator Barr and in the house of representatives by Assemblyman Gregory, chairman of the house waterways committee. The proposal is a $20,000,000 proposition, under the bond issue already authorized by the state. It provides use of the "river route" between the Lockport power plant and the head of navigation on the Illinois river at La Salle, with long locks and at least an eight-foot channel, with a 14-foot depth It necessary. The latter contingency is based upon what the federal . government -may do when It dredges a channel In the Mississippi river. Before anything can be done by the legislature the federal government, through the war department, must issue a required permit, covering the flownge from Lake Michigan. Statements by Director Frank I. Bennett and of Superintendent of Waterways William L. Sackett, who recently have returned from Washington, D. C., indicate that such a permit may reasonably be expected. "If the legislature gives us quick action on the bill we have prepared," said Mr. Bennett, "and federal officials approve, as I think they will, we can start work 011 this great project early this fall and give employment to hundreds of men. "Four bHlls will be required to carry out our plans--one authorizing the construction of the waterway; one providing for the bond issue In payment of construction; one providing for the appropriation, and one providing for a resurvey of the Illinois and Michigan canal to establish Its definite limits, it being necessary at points to merge the canal Into the larger channel proposed and at other points to utilize it as a feeder to industries, and to provide harbor and terminal facilities for boats navigating the larger waterway." William L. Sackett, superintendent )of waterways, recited the previous efforts ,to start the canal, and said: "In October, 1917, Governor Lowden again sought federal authority to start the work. Engineers were employed, objections of federal engineers were considered, and It was found a new bill was required. The bill now prepared presents a plan which accords with the general scheme recommended by federal engineers in connection with the improvement of the rivers of the middle West. ? "The present bill provides for locks *110 feet wide, with a usable length of (000 feet, capable of passing fleets carrying five to seven thousand tons of -freight. "The general dimensions of the waterway' are to be 150 feet bottom width, which will mean a top width of from 200 to 300 feet. The minimum depth in earth sections will be eight feet, the same as the 1915 bill. To avoid future objections the minimum depth through rock sections is fixed at ten feet and over miter sills of locks at 14 feet. These dimensions are in accord with the general plan of navigation Improvement for the Ohio and Mississippi rivers." House Democrats failed to make a dent in the Republican alignment behind issues raised over the state treasurer's office by Representative Igoe's resolution Introduced early in the session. It blanketed several propositions, one for an investigation of the prices of materials used in foad building and other post-war state and municipal activities. Another was an investigation into the amount of interest turned in by state treasurers. The Democratic house caucus resolution adopted, indorsing without reservation the league of nations as recommended by President Wilson, was introduced by Representative Welnshenker of Chicago and will be up for consideration this week. The senate passed a few minor bills and adjourned under an arrangement whereby no business was to be transacted until this week. Question of "no quorum," raised In the house latt Friday by Representative W. H. H. Miller (Rep.) of Champaign, resulted in adjournment without transaction of any business. Mr. Miller objected to reception of committee reports. "Sleeping Sickness" Must Be Rapsrlsd, Dr. C. St. Clair Drake, director of the state department of public health, issued 6 bulletin declaring lethargic encophalitis. or Improperly called "sleeping sickness," to be a reportable disease. In the future all physicians will be compelled to report cases to the state and city health officials. The order was issued by Doctor Drake with a view of securing information on the existence of "sleeping sickness" in Illinois, and for the purpost of bringing about proper control of the disease. Commission Men Would Increase Bond. Chicago commission merchants In fighting Senator Tumbaugh's bill, No. 21. now before the senate committee on agriculture, requiring commission merchants to be licensed by the secretary of state, declares Its provision requiring them to report the name of purchasers of all shipments is confiscation of their property without compensation. They also are urging that the size of the bond to be given be increased from $2,000 to $10,000, to protect honest commission merchants from fraiylulent dealers. lag. Water Belt Route Is Planned. The navigation committees ft* Calumet Manufacturers' association is pushing the project of dredging and straightening the Calumet river channel from Hammond to South Chicago, and is securing deeds for the project to make a navigable circuit via the river and lake outlets at Indiana Harbor and South Chicago. The association is also working for a road to North Harvey, Unking Hammond with Hegewisch, Rlverdale, Dalton and Blue Island. Four hundred Industries on the Indiana and Illinois sides of the state line will be affected. jV ! x •. .. '*! # \ V ^ mt. FAF1»8 DIAPEP3IN AT ONCE ENDS CSURNISS, GASES, ACIDlWi INDIGESTION.

Seven reserve militia regiments In Illinois would be gh*en the status of organized militia under,a.bill introduced by Senator Francis P.'Brady of Chicago. The measure carries an emergency clause, and Is understood to iip.ve the backing of the adjutant general's department. It is before the military affairs committee. Three regiments have been organized under the standing military and naval code, but never were federalized and have served as "home guards." At present, while both reserve militia and organized militia regiments receive the same pay--$1 a day for privates when on active service--the reserve militia outfits are required to buy their own uniforms, while the uniforms of the organized militiamen are purchased at the state's expense. The Brady bill Is Intended to put the regiments all on the same basis. Getting Land Into 8hapa by Blowing Out 8tumpa. Better Housing Bill Favored. * Senator Harold C. Kessinger's state housing code bill was reported back to the senatte from the judiciary committee with the recommendation that it pass. It was the hopeful piece of proposed legislation that came in with some other bills reported favorably that are "viewed with alarm." In the latter group Is the Sonnemann measure seeking to repeal the state civil service law and Sodestrom bill to prevent the issuance of injunctions In the case of labor disputes. The housing bill comprehends a reform that has been agitated for several sessions and it comes before this assembly with the backing of Govern nor Lowden'S administration. The purpose of the proposed act Is to promote the health, safety and welfare of the people by regulating the light and ventilation, fire protection and improvement of dwellings, and to establish administrative requirements. Lawrence Vieller of New York, secretary of the American Housing association, will be In Springfield to speak in favor of the bill. It stipulates that all rooms In apartments and tenements shall have an outside light or window opening, that there slinLVbe specified back yards, and that the heights of buildings shall be limited to give air space. The health commissioner and the building department are given Jurisdiction In the administration of the.proposed law. Free Gravel Will Be Tested. The joint legislative committee of the general assembly named to Investigate the feasibility of using gravel for road building offered free to the state by Paul Ramser of Tainms, Is goiug fully into the possibility of using the gravel as a base for either brick or cement road centers. The committee will take with It on expert from the highways division. Who will test the gravel to see if it can be used successfully as a base. The division of highways has presented the committee with estimates showing a mile of road, consisting of a gravel "base and an eight-foot brick center, can be built for approximately $7,000. The same road with a six-foot brick center could be built for approximately $6,000. The estimates for a road consisting of a gravel base with an eight-foot cement center is $6,000. A road with a six-foot cement center would cost approximately $5,000. Both of these estimates, however, are based on the supposition the gravel will cost the state nothing but the eost of hauling. The estimates as presented tb the division figure on gravel at $1.50 a cubic yard. . Senator Henry M. Dunlap of Savoy, chairman of the committee to investigate the Ramser proposition, Is enthusiastic over the prospects of securing an unlimited amount of gravel Tree. He declares a large number of roads in the southern part of. the state are being constructed from the same kind of gravel as Ramser has offered the state. » • , Bill to Establish Veterinary Collage. Senator S. E. Lanta of Woodford ccunty, announces he will endeavor to secure action on his bill providing for the establishment of a veterinary college at the State University of Illinois and directing the trustees of this Institution to use from $50,000 to $150,- 000 of, funds for this purpose. The bill is now in the hands of the senate agricultural committee. Senator Lantz says the state veterinarians' association has indorsed the proposition owing to the large number of private veterinary colleges out of existence. Illinois Haa Three Senators. Until December 1, when the new congress Is sworn In, on up to the date when It Is called, Illinois will be In the novel situation of having three senators. Senator Sherman Is the holdover senator, a Republican. Senator Lewis Is the retiring Democratic senator, but cannot be succeeded by Mc- Coimlck until McCormlck taikes his oath and is sworn in. McCormick cannot be sworn in until the session of the senate is regularly called. It now appears that this will not be nntll the regular December opening. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Explosives can be used to advantage In clearing most land. Either alone or In combination with burning methods or pullers, explosives, if used efficiently, will materially reduce the cost of stumping. Dynamite la a means of rapid clearing, and when it is used there Is no capital tied up In Idle machinery after the clearing is completed. If It Is not possible to reduce the acre cost for stumping machinery to a reasonable figure, blasting Is the most economical method, except perhaps the burning methods, to use In stumping small tracts. If in doubt whether to use dynamite alone In stumping It Is advisable to get a 25 or 50-pound box and experiment to find how much It requires to blow out some average stumps on the tract. However, It Is usually found more economical to use dynamite than to depend upon labor for doing the work. It is difficult to clear the earth from the roots of stumps in clay soil. Where stumps are shot clear of the ground there is less adhering earth than where they are cracked and pulled. Perhaps in clay soil It would be more economical to shoot the stump* clear of the ground. Cost of Exploalvea. , If explosives are bought In small quantities the cost is rather high. To reduce the cost it is recommended that several farmers club together and buy In large quantities. Careful, expert enced persons can safely do the work ^rlth high explosives, but no one should attempt to use them until he thoroughly understands the best and safest methods of handling. Various brands of explosive require different methods of handling, and full and detailed Information as to the best ways of nsing them is absolutely essential. For this reason, the reader Is advised to study t with extreme care the instructions Issued by the manufacturer of the brand of explosive which he proposes to use. Xf dynamite is to be handled In cold weather, study very carefully the manufacturers' instructions on thawing dynamite. Many accidents have happened through ignorance or carelessness In thawing. The blasting caps are much more sensitive than the dynamite Itself, and should be handled with great care. A cap crimper la an Inexpensive tool, and its use may prevent serious accidents. Beat Time to Blast. The best time to blast stumps Is when the ground is saturated with water. The explosive works most efficiently then because the gases resulting from the explosion do not escape through the spaces between the soil particles. An explosive containing a low percentage of nitroglycerin will do the same work In wet soil as one containing a higher percentage would do In the same soil when dry. Dynamite with 20 per cent of nitroglycerin or its equivalent Is used almost exclusively on the Pacific coast. It could be used effectively for stumping operations In many other parts of tho United States, especially where the soli is heavy, wet or where the stumps are well decayed. Dynamite with 40 pet cent nitroglycerin is largely used In the South for blasting the longleaf pine, and the lake states for white pine. In many cases a lower grade of explosive could be profitably substituted. The 40 per cent grade should be used where the soil Is somewhat light and dry or where the stumps are green. The 60 per cent grade of dynamite has been used with good success in blasting stumps in the porous coral soils of southern Florida, In blasting stumps at a dry time In sandy soil, and in blasting tough, green, hardwood stumps. The higher percentage dynamites are likely to pack heavy soil If used when it is very wet. Roughly, the number of pounds of dynamite required to shoot a stump clear of the ground is the same as the square of the number of feet in the diameter of the stump at the cut off. For example, a 2-foot stump will require four pounds, and one 6 feet in diameter will require 86 pounds. Often less will do the work, but occasionally more Is required. All factors, such as kind and soundness of the stumps, and kind and condition of the soil, influence the amount of explosive required for a stump of given size. Loud reports and the throwing of parts of the stump high la tho air indicate an excessive charge. Firing Charges by Electricity. The electrical method of firing blasts is beginning to be extensively used. In firing charges by this method the following equipment Is needed: Oue blasting machine, 300 feet of double leading wire to reach from the stumps to the blasting machine, some connecting wire to connect the stumps together in a series, and electric detonators in place of the caps and fuses used in ordinary blasting. Firing by electric* lty has many advantages over the cap and fuse method. The danger of prer mature explosions Is greatly reduced and the danger from delayed explosions Is entirely eliminated. Probably more people have been injured in stump blasting by too hasty Investigation of a delayed explosion than from any other cause. When using the cap and fuse method, the safe rule to follow when a charge does not explode as expected Is to keep away from the locality until the next day. Where the stumps have been severely burned, are badly decayed, hollow, have several large spreading roots or where It Is necessary to blast stumps so near to each other that the explosion of a charge under one stump would loosen the earth under the adjacent one, the use of the blasting machine will save dynamite and result In better work being done than If the cap and fuse are used. If the stumps have been partially burned out by any of the burning processes previously described, the roots can best be blown out by fifing the charges with a blasting machine. MANURE IS 0MSREAT VALUE garden Soil Should Be Rich In Plant- #s«d Constituents and hi flood Condition. Manure Is of great value' tn making the land ready for garden plants. Unless the land Is virgin or lately heavily dressed with manure it Is apt to need an application now. Befhember that the soil should bejtftfh in plantfood constituents aa^rffli as in a' state of good mechanical condition. VARIETIES OF FRUIT FOR Selection Is One of Most Important Considerations. Prospective Planter 8hould Avail Hint . aslf of Suggestions of Experlenssd. Growers in His Community** Place Ordera Early. (Prepared by the United States Depart* ment of Agriculture.) One of the most Important consider atlons In planting a home orchard Is the selection of kinds of fruits and varieties of those kinds which will do well in the locality where they are to be grown. While many of the longestablished nurseries are selling their stock through traveling agents whose integrity Is unquestioned, It is better as a rule for a grower to deal directly with nurserymen than through agents. Place orders early and deal only with reliable nurserymen. m In selecting varieties a prospective planter should avail himself of the suggestions of experienced fruit growers In his community, his state agricultural college or the United States department of agriculture. In Farmers' Bulletin 1001, recently published by the department, the country is divided Into 14 districts and the most desirable fruit varieties are given for each district.

Month of March. OVER ONE MILLION JARS OF VAPORUB PRODUCED EACH WEEK It is with pride that wo announce to the drug trade that the shortage of Vlck's VapoBub, which has lasted since last October, Is now overcome. Since January 1st, we have been running our laboratory twenty-three and a half hours out of every twenty-four. Last week we shipped the last of our batk orders, and retail druggists, therefore, are no longer requested to order in small quantities only. NOVEMBER DEAL RE-INSTATED This deal, which we had expected to put on last November and which had to be postponed on account of the shortage of VapoRub, Is re-Instated for the month of March. This allows a discount of 10% on shipments from jobbers' stock of quantities of from 1 to 4 gross. 5% of this discount Is allowed by the jobber and 5% by us. We advise the retail druggists to place their orders Immediately, so that the jobbers will be able to get prompt shipments to them. THANKS OF THE PUBLIC DUE THE DRUG TRADE DURING THE INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC. The thanks of the American public are certainly due the entire drug trado ---retail, wholesale and manufacturing --for what they accomplished during the recent influenza epidemic. The war caused a shortage of physicians-- nurses were almost impossible to obtain-- the demand on the drug trade was unexpected and overwhelming, and to this demand they responded nobly. Retail druggists kept open day and night and slept where they dropped behind the prescription counter. Wholesale druggists called their salesmen off the road to help fill orders-- hundreds wired us to ship Vick's VapoRub by the quickest route, regardlesa of expense. the Deal Scheduled for Last!
