can hardly pick up a newspaper without
seeing some kind OF warning to farmers
not to sign any paper without first becOm-
ing acquainted with its contents, and not to
sign them for strangers especially. 1t

peated warning throughout the land by the
newspapers find swindlers more numerous
and their victims more plentiful The ma
iority of those who get taken in by these
sharpers are those who think they cannot
afford to take their home paper We doubt
pathy for their greenuess and they can
blame no one but themselves Take your
home paper.
