PAGE TWELVr CHEAPER CREDIT FOR FARMERG [3 RELD DIFICULT Small Banks of Agricul- tural Regions Blamed _ | For High Rates. WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—Efforts to obtain cheaper credit for the farm- | ers thus far have fafled to produce opreciable effect on the interest rates charged by banks “in the small cities and towns of agricultural sec tions of the west and south,” accord ing to observations of the federal re- serve board fn {ts annual report made public today. The board says after a} survey that the interest rates of those financial stitutions remain practic- ally unchanged despite the lowering | of rediscount rates by the reserve banks in the past year and other) moves designed to be of assistance to the agricultural industry. | “It is noteworthy,” the report says, | i. the rates charged by banks in the smal! cities and towns of agricul-| tural districts of the west and south! are practically on the same level as they were a year ago. This is doubt less due to the fact that in those sections it 1s the custom for banks to charge a given rate of interest, usually ranging from 8 to 10 per cent | the year around, without regard to interest rates obtaining in the indus- trial sections of the country or to discount rates in effect at the federal reserve bank “It is apparent that in those sec: tions of the country where relatively high interest rates prevail, and there is a wide margin between such rates | and the federal reserve bank rates, | the latter have but slight, if any,| effect upon rates charged by reserve bank members. “In the financial centers there 1s a close relationship between reserve | bank discount rates and rates charged customers by reserve banks.” TAX EXPERTS HERE TO AD CASPERITES Help in filing income tax returns has been extended to local partner- ships and corporations by Marshall S.

HELP KIDNEYS BY DRINKING MORE WATER Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and Help Neutralize Irri- tating Acids Kidney and bladder trritations often result from acidity, says a noted au- thority. The kidneys help filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it may remain to irritate and inflame, causing a burn- ing, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread; the water passes sometimes with a scald. ing sensation and is very profuse: again, there is difficulty in voiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks call it because they can't control urina tion. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is often one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Begin drinking lots soft water, also get about four oun of Jad Salts from your pharmacist ) and take a tablespoonful in a glass of! water before breakfast. Coutinus this for two or three days. This will help neutralize the acids in the sys- tem so they no longer are a source of {irritation to the bladder and urinary organs, which then act nor- mal again. Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes and Jemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by acid irritation. Jad Salts causes no bad effects whatever, Here you have a pleasant, efferves- cent lithia-water drink which may quickly relieve your bladder irritation.
