Piles Can’t Be Cured From the Outside. External Piles. Nor do syrgical operations. The cause is inside—bad circulation. The blood is stagnant, the veins flab- treatments seldom cure The bowel walls are weak, the parts aimost dead. To gquickly and safely rid yourself of piles you must free the circulation— send a fresh current through the stag- nant pools. Internal treatment is the one safe method. J. B. Leonhardt, M.

The 40-mile gale which whipped Long Is- {land sound fInte a frothy fury put the Lake boats to a test of seaworthiness in Laddition to the former trial which they had undergone with navy department of- ficials aboard. The two subs’ left the base at New London early Tuesday morning for ‘ha maneuvers. At 10.30 in command of Captain J. W. Bari..... Jr., was given the submerged tryout. It was the big event of the day. The boat sank to a depth of 211 feet, 11 feet be- yond the required distance Lake officials stated every requirement was met. At 12 o'clock the boats started their homeward trip. Tests for seaworthiness end epparatus were made en route, in adlitfon to the regular inspection which had previously been conducted. The boats were confronted with sever- al weather obstacles, the first being a baffling fog. Then came the blow, ons of the worst, the crews had ever encount- ered. A ‘masty” sea kicked up huge waves which swept over the boats and kept the bridges awash. Breakers dash- ed against the conning towers and every officer on lookout wag thoroughly drenched. The high temperaturs wag the sole redeeming feature of the experi- ence, the men related. Desplte the severity of the storm offi- cers declded it was upnécessary to make 2 submerged run and they continued thelr surface cruise throughout. Waves smash- ed one lifeboat on the §-49 and damaged another. The submarines after the test headed for Brideeport and reached the bell buny off Bridgeport harhor at 5 p. m. but because of the storm occupled an hour in reaching thelr docks having diffieuity In negotiating a safe lznding in the basin.

Some of these things are brought to it from producers twelve thousand miles away; New Zea- land, for mfi The average haul of bacon ! the whole tre: us total i about one thousand miles. At present freight rates the mere transportation of New York city's mil- lions of tons of food products coss Ks consumers millions upon millions of dol- lars. If the average haul of a thousand miles could be cut down to an average of five hundred, that one saving would halve those millions of freight charges and correspondingly reduce the cost of the transported foods. If the everage haul could be reduced to two hundréd and fifty miles, it would cut freight costs to a quarier of thelr present exorbitancy. Now, thopgh New York is on the sea- coast. and 2 dircle of two bundred and fifty miles around would take In a con- siderable quadrant of ocean, that circle would still include a good deal of farm land—all of Connecticut and New Jersey, for insance, and goodly pamts of New York stats, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, ete. Would # be humanly possible for the farms Inciuded In such & circle to suppiy all the food demands of New York city? At first thought, youw'd simply laugh and say “Of course not” Right off the bat, just Mke that. “O€ course not" And you'd be pight—so far as oranges and grapefruit and lemons and bananas and coffee and tea am! pqur ;ml nut- n?a and pomegranates joi'y and some such tropical producm ‘ave con- cerned. But, lqulnc ont 6f consideration things which the dlimate peremptorily nmam- us growing, how about the potatoes and filt ‘2pples and the cabbages and Lh- peaches 2nd the wheat fl and the eggs and such natural grops of the temperate zome?

Now, let's S'puse agaln, Just for the sake of argu- ment, that these 275,000 a were all but into potatoes. Under such clpcum- stances how many days or bours céuld New London county supply New York city with potatoes? Say, don't you rather ilks to wrastle with blg figures? Really big, mouth- dlling ones? Most people do, and I warn you there are a few abesd of you, if you've read thus far. Two bundred snd spyenty-five thonsand acres of noutoe-’uflegln!?nh that. How many bushels, per acre, would the coun- ty pan out? One hundred? Two hum- dred? Oh, go slow! You and I, being unusual ‘gnd rather remarkable farmers, perhaps conld raise that amount. gut We're "exceptions, 3nd we know it. We'll cut that smallest estimate squarsly in two. We'll gllow that the county could average only fifty bushels to the acre, and see where that will bring us. As ! figure it my slow, old-fashioned way, would give a total yield for the counzy of Afty times 275.000, or 13.760,- 000 bushels. New York city would want 117,500 bushels a week. Now on my e 117.500 “goes into™ 13,760,000 about one hundred ahd séventeen times. Let the lad take his pad and pencll and tell me how near I've come to ft. That 1s, New London county, if all its cu'tivable land were put into potatoes and they ylelded only fifty bushels per acre of merchantable tubers would, ney- ertheless. grow enough in a sinkle sea- son to feed New York clty for one hun- dred and seventeen weeks, or two years, three months and one week! This would seem to Indicate that we should have to gend more than half the potatoes to Phiadelphia, Boston, Provi- dence, Hartford and Fishers Island to get Tid of them, or feed them to the pigs and so grow pork enough to sun- ply the'big city’s demards for hamg snd “And the other elght countles of "Little O1d" Connectlcut” could be set apart to rasg the radishes and lettuce and spin- ach and cucumbers the big town wants.

And we've already discovered, as shown' In a former talk, fhat that left-over half would be stift about four times bigger than !sabsolute- Iy required to take care of all the local Home demand.
