ANOTHER FAKE GAME.
PATENT RIGHT MEN WORKING
A NEW SCHEME.
A worthless Wagon Tongue and an oily
Tongue Causing Farmers to Lose
Their Hard-Earned Ducats.

Il read with interest the article in

with the pepsin and butter racket, and

Thus spoke a farmer to THE LEADER
reporter yesterday in reply to querry
relative to the condition of crops and
'sich" in his locality.
But I've heard of another new
scheme that it would be well to
warn farmers about and that is the
patent wagon tongue racket The
way it works is this, and here the ge-
nial farmer described the new fake:
"Swindler No calls upon you with
n patent wagon tongue aud informs
you that having made a big thing out
OF it, he is on his way home with only
this county to sell. He tells you that
You can have it for $3.50 and If you
want il to write to him. In few
days a patent right man comes along.
lie has heard that you have the right
of the county for the patent wagon
tongue, and as he has made a big
thing out of it in adjoining states, he
wants TO buy the county. He offers
you $500 and gives you $40 to bind tn,
bargain. You finally write TO th'
first swindler, sending him your not,
for $3.50. The patent right man i
