Thos A. Edison, the wizard inventor,
suggests unixue solution of the money
question. He says why not throw away
gold and silver take a bushel of wheat,
squeeze the water out of it, compress it in
to a hard cake the size of a silver dollar,
and stamp the Government mark upon it.
That would represent actual value and la
Dor performed, and then you could eat
your dollar, for when you wanted to use
the wheat all that would be necessary
would be to put your money in soak. We
would then have the bushel of wheat as the
permanent unit of value, and both silver
and gold could be dispensed with.
