Potato Pickers Wanted.

The Kansas State Employment Service has a request for 300 workers from the Thomas and Sherman county areas to pick potatoes at Scotts Bluff, Neb. Workers will be guaranteed three weeks work with a possibility of an additional week if needed. The potatoes in the Scotts Bluff territory are making from 300 to 500 bushels to the acre. Pay will be three cents for each bushel picked. Past experience has shown that the average man picks 100 bushels a day.

Workers are also wanted to sugar beet picking and hauling. Room and board are available. The Thomas and Sherman county areas have been given the largest quotas and have been given until Saturday night to furnish the needed 300 workers. Registration for these jobs is to be made a the court house with Lee Turner

A man brought one of our blacksmiths a cord a wood to pay a debt, yesterday, and the blacksmith turned it in on his board bill, and the landlady used it to pay the furniture dealer, and he in turn paid the man for work done, and so $3 paid $12 of debt. And yet they say there’s not enough circulating medium in the country!

Women Sufferers May Need Swamp-Root.

Thousands and thousands of women have kidney and bladder trouble and never suspect it.

Women’s complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.

If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.

Pain in the back, headache, loss of ambition, nervousness, are often times symptoms of kidney trouble.

Don’t delay start treatment. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a physician’s prescription, obtained at any drug store, may be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions.

Get a medium or large size bottle immediately from any drug store.

However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention The Topeka Daily Capital.–Advertisement.
