4 Few Fact. for Frugal Farmer.

The farmer has 8 thoughtful and puzzled look
nowadays. He is estimating the value OF his
hogs siI trying to understand why the packer who
introduced the Conger Lard Binin Congress, which
proposes to tax Lard Compound is mssquerading
as his friend and benefactor. He knows well that
this pretelson is absurd because the packer screws
him down in price when purchasing, makes all
sorts Of claims, and in word, lives by the sweat
Of the farmers brow instead Of that OF his own.
The farmer should understand that the passage
of this bill will practically close up rehneres that
make over 800 00o, 900 lbs. OF Lard Compound per
Annum. Of which hog lard is the principal ingred-
lent These rehners are the largest customers that
the farmer has for his hogs. II they stop the de-
demand from them viii cease. The farmer must
then go to the packers as his only customers. and
they will dictate terms and prices.
To illustrate If . farmer has two customers for
one hog, he can hx his own price for it, but let
him have one customer for two hogs, and the Gus
toner will hx the price. Naturally, larger de-
mand for hogs makes prices frmer; 80 that the
packer, having destroyed his competitors, will have
the farmer in his power.
It was the packers who introduced this Bill.
Reference to the records of the Agricultural Com
mittee Of the Fiftieth Congress will show this
Congress would do foolish thing to pass It. for it
Is equivalent TO taking sides in trade matters and
. Government that il established on the basis OF
equality and equal rights for all violates the Ant
principles Of its existence when it considers legis-
lAtion Of this invidious character.
There is no doubt but that a general pure food
bill should be passed, whereby the public would
be protected against unprincipled manufacturers
and dealers, but it Is unjust and tniquitous to
discriminate against q special industry, p&rti-
cularly where that will beneht rival industry.
800 out Of 1919 farmers recently addressed, IN
vored the passage OF general pure food bill and
the Alliances throughout the country are passing
resolutions in favor Of this and condemning the
Conger Bill. The farmer will therefore contribute
to his own welfare by working through his Senators
to SEsot the defeat Of the Bill.

Captain Huber says that the disease
seems to be a mystery; the veterinarl-
ans are unable to check it. They
have been experimenting for some time,
but have failed to do any good. 1t was

says, that the incubation remedy would
stop it, but it seems to be doirg very

stockmen are very much discouraged.
Prices are so low that they are losing
money right along. Hogs bring only
three cents-lower than for many
years. With corn at such high figures,
the stockmen can't afford to feed
much. Cattle are very low, and Cap
