RUSSIA TO RECLAIM DESERT Qlld Picture Lands Are Destroyed at the Rata of Ons Hundred Thous and Acres a Year. I The shifting sands of Astrakhan nnd the measures taken by the ltusslsn 'government to deal with this problem form the subject of a memoir by J. Q. Flrttor, published In Petmgrad, ob serves the {Scientific American. Ten million seres of the province In ques tion are covered with shifting sands formed during the nineteenth century and subsequently. These sands have been spreading at the rate of 100,000 acres a year, the result being the trans formation of good pasture land Into a barren waste. The principal cause Is «ver graxlng; flocks and herda sre kept ■O long In one place as to result In the complete destruction of the turf. Poor agricultural methods sre also respon sible. About the beginning of the pres ent century the government took meas ures of control and reclamation, and between 1004 and 1000 an area of about 40,000 acres was brought under culti vation. In 1913 a special service was ordered to deal with the question. The province was put nnder the charge of a chief forestry officer and divided tato six districts. In each of which a subordinate official tvas appointed to superintend the work. At the time of writing good progress has been made In planting soli binders and growing herbaceous crops, but It was still prob lematical whether the province was adapted to the establishment of for ests. "At Chattanooga,""said a veteran o the Civil war, "one of the men In mj company left early In the action, ant no one saw blm till after the battle when be appeared In camp unwounde 'and unabashed.

Dr. C. L. Raper. The war is ovor, and the things for which the Allies have strug gled have been gaiued. American democracy and American dollars have done a strikingly important thing in helping to bring about such a result. They have not played the fundamental part; the French, the English, and other Europeans have done that. They have played, nevertheless, a vital part. American democracy has lived the heroic life for many months, and her dollars have been gener ous' to an astonishing degree. These heroic times are passing. Will American democracy use her dollars less generously for mak ing life more perfect in times of peace ? Already the order has gone forth that our democracy must greatly reduce her expenditure of dollars, and within the coming days large reductions are easily possible without our democracy losing any of her power to work for the gen eral welfare. Democracy in times of peace need not call for many billions of dollars for public uses. The work of making a great war successful in a far away country cannot go on without the expendi ture of billions and billions of dollars. American democracy in her heroic mood liax supplied those billions upon billions. Will she in her peaceful and commonplace mood supply 11 few billions for the welfare of her own every-day life —for tho development of her health, which war has shown to be poor, for the promotion of edu cation, which tho war has proved to be far from general ? The great war is over in Rus sia, but chaos and destruction hold sway in many places. One Russian is taking another Rus sian's life, and with seemingly great enthusiasm. The interna tional war in Russia is over, but one class of Russia is lighting to the death Another class—and not for tho sake of palriotio love for Russia. lvarl Marx, the founder of Socialism, never dreamed in his mos'. violent moments of a more energetic battle on the part of the industrial wage-workers against their capitalist employers. The war is over in Itussia, but. the business man with capacity to do big things in industry and com merce is being exterminated by the Bolshevist wage-workers. And American democracy and American dollars may yet be com pelled to fight the extreme social ist democrat in Russia, to save to Russia and the world her capacity to carry on business and to live a peaceful and an energetic life—-to save Russian democracy from her own violence and injustice. Tho war is over in the United States and peace between the iiji tious seems sure to come within a few months. But shall we, too, experience during the days of re construction a Bolshevist violence on the part of our wage-workers? Our international wiir is over, but will peaco between our, big business mini and his wago-worker remain with us 1O prosper us? Will American democracy and American dollars lend their power to either group? Will they make certain to the great business man a large reward for his unusual brain and efforts? Will they make to tlio wage-worker a living condition 1 bat is wholesome'! Catarrh ( initio! lie Cured wliii A|>i'lli!Stl"i>», «« ••••■y rsimol reach ilw M'ltl of I tie disease..

Ask your druggist for a bottle of Dod son's I.lver Tone and take a spoonful to-night. If it doesn't start your liver and straighten you right up better than calomel and without griping or making you, sick. I want you- to go back to the drug store and get your money.

The Univerul Airplane- There was once a Governor of Now Jersey who had his picture taken In the "bus" of an airplane —on the ground. He was a large, handsome man, with a magnetic smile and the air of command; but when invited to go aloft by the affable pilot the Governor scram bled out of the machine. At that time there was no public confi dence in airplanes, and for once the Governor had the courage of his convictions. Today every body want 4 to take a joy ride in the air, or says ho does, according to the New York Times. There is a general agreement that going up is as safe as standing 011 terra firma, but opportunity does not knock at everybody's door. Home people may be secretly glad it doesn't. However, tlio fashion is not to bo afraid of airplane**. So when olio reads that on Thanks giving Day nine men—the ladies still have qualms—had a turkey dinner on board a high-powered airplane 2,800 feet above tlio an cientcityof Elizabeth, New Jersey, there is no astonishment at all. Imagination cannot fail to dwell upon tlio experience and the emo tions of those bon vivants serene 1} riding the clouds. Whocarved? Was there choice of white or dark meat, a contest for the wishbone? Did any one ask for more? Did everybody have the sauce of hunger? Flying and eating may not go together at this stage of aviation. Later on it may l>e dif ferent. Pilot Robert J'\ Bliaulo, aero mail carrier between New York and Washington, luncheon with him and enjoys it at noon daily, thanks to a patent ed knee control; but an air post man has no nerves. The Eliza beth innovation is at least sug gestive. The touring air car of the future must have a kitchen- ette anil i» chef. People will eat course dinnere while flyitig over Mount Washington. It would be reactionary not to «'«) all the world taking to the air. Tlie automobile may become aH obsolctp as the Holid-tire high wheel bicycle. There will be "llivvers" aloft. Flying need not be a rich man's sport, Will it not become a necessity of busi ness? Fortunately the air is wide, liven so, there will bo traffic policemen up there, on aerial cross-roads and popular thorough fares. It tnay be assumed that auything done in or with an au tomobile now will be done in and with a flying machine before the world is much older. Skepticism withers in tho prospect. How can thore bo art-y doubt when Major M. J. Boots and Lieutenant Elmer J. Spencer, United States Army aviators, make a continuous} flight from Mount Clemens, Michigan, to our own Yonkere, 70U miles, in four hours and fifty minutes; when Lieutenant John K. Davis, United States Air Service, flies all the way from the Gulf of Mexico to tho Great Lakes in sixty-four hours without a mechanic; when Lieutenant William T, Campbell loops the loop l'>s consecutive times, and is none tho worse for his gyrations; when the Rev. John Moran flies about on the front in Franco to say mass; when Captain Gabriele d'Aiinun/.io soars aloft at U a. m. at Turin, crosses the Alps, and comes down at Cha lons at noon, 290 miles in three hours? Thoj are all coining, the com monplace things we do now with automobiles, but on a magnified sc.de. "Home, .lames!" thj Man hattan lady will say after paying a round of visits at Hartford, Hpriuglleld, Albany, and rough keepsie. The New York man will keep a dinner engagement in ('hi cago after looking over his mail in the morning. Lawyers with their briefs, surgeons with their instrument cases, will fly from Suite to State; it will bo all in the day's work. There will be pas senger and freight services. New York to Loudon iu twenty-five hours will be possible. Capronis and Haudley Cages are beiug built this moment to make nonstop (lights across the Atlantic. Peo ple will "see America first" iu luxurious touring cars. They will lly to their summer cottages on the Maine coast, taking their trunks along. Refrigerator planes will deliver cod caught in the Atlantic ill the mortiing at Pitts burgh in the afternoon. No boys' summer camp will be complete without airplanes for recreation. Professors with their classes will take to the air in the summer when inufllers or silencers are in vented Of course, then* will be elopements by airplane, and the knot will be tied "up there." Un less our statutes are nationalixed it will often be difficult to serve writs upou offenders, Slate lines Iteing blotted out. Text writers will turn out ponderous volumes upou the law of the air, which will become a source of revenue for the profession. The airplane will certainly be utilized by explorers and s|>orta men. Captain Robert A. Bartlet is now planning to fly across the north |M>le. The fauna of Africa will have to reckon with hunters who drop from the clonds. In Ks»t Africa this past summer en gine 1 rouble forced a British mili tary airman to alight, when he was attacked by elephants. They wrenched his fuselage to pieces The remotest wilderness will lie accessible to adventurous sports men. Science, pleasure, business, government will be served by the übiquitous airplaiio. The time is to come when i's general nse will date from the peace that followed the great war. This is not the stuff thai dreams are made of.

The great herb medicine, Dreoo-, accomplishes this because it reach es the very roots of the disease. It souks right into the stopped up, inactive kidneys through the walls and linings; cleans out the little filtering cells and glands; neutral izes and dissolves the poisonons acid subs'taiices and drives all the waste matter out of the sys tem. "My wife Buffered HO (die could not rest »t night," declared No;th Goodwin, the well known farmer of Elmwood, N. C., in n signed Htiiteincnt. ''She had bad pains in Ihe back and limbs and loss of sleep made her nervous and great ly nip down. "On the advice of a friend she got :i bottle of the new herb medi cine, Dreco, and after taking only half a bottle the piins were re lieved and now she rests fine at night. I think Dreco a wonder ful medicine and have asked my druggist to get some in stock so I can buy more and send my friends to him for it." So sure, so positive, so quick aud lasting are the results ob tained from the use of Dreco, that threo doses a day for a few days are often all that is required t9 correct the worst case of back ache or rheumatism, regulate the most annoying bladder disorders aif>l overcome the numerous other similar conditions. You can obtain an original package of Dreco at trifling cost from almost any first-class drug store. It is dispensed and par ticularly recommended in Graham by Graha.m Drug Co. Peace Principles. Greensboro News. What are the principles on which the peace settlement is to be effected? asked Premier Lloyd George on Nov. lltli, addressing his liberal supporters. Are we to lapse back into the old national rivalries, animosities and com petitive armaments, or aro we to initiate the reign on earth of the Prince of Peace? It is the duty of liberalism to u*e its influence to insure that it shall be a reigu of peace. What are conditions of peace? They must lead to a settlement which will be fundamentally just. No settlement that contravenes the principles of eternal justice will be a permanent one. The peace of 1871 imposed by Ger many on France outraged nil the principles of justice aud fair play. Let us be warned by that example. Wo must not allow any sense of revenge, any spirit of greed, any grasping desire to override the fundamental principles of right eousness. Vigorous attemps will ba made to hector and bully the government in an endeavor to make it depart from the strict principles of right and to satisfy some base, sordid, squalid ideas of vengeance and avarice. We must relentlessly set our faces against that. Discussing tho question of a league of nations the premier said that such a league would be more necessary now than ever. ' A large number of small nations have been rv-born in Europo, ho continued, and these will require a league of nations to protect them against the covetousness of ambi tious aud grasping neighbors.
