The American Farmer.
The Oldest Agricultural Paper in
America.
Published at 1929 New York
Avenue. Washington, D. G.
Price. only so Cents a Year.

THE AMERICAN FARMER is a great Ma
tional agricultural paper. 1t circulates in
every part of the country, and represents the
interests of all the farmers in the Nation.
Being located at the seat of Government
and the only agricultural paper that is
it has special facilities for getting informa-
ton of real interest TO all farmers of all that
goes on affecting them in Congress, or in
any of the Departments of the Government.
This will be of particular importance TO all
farmers this Winter, when there will be
prolonged and bitter struggle in Congress
over the policy Of protecting farm products.
The AMERICAN FARMER is on the side OF
the farmers and bitterly hostile to the an
nounced program of placing wool on the
free list, and reducing the duties on other
agricultural products 1t denouBces this as
making the farmers bear the greatest part of
the weight of the alleged tariff reform, and
protests against this sacrifice OF the farmers
in favor of other interests. Every one who
favors justice and right to farmers and
not political buncombe, should rally to
its support and give it the utmost strength
by doing what they can to extend its circula-
ton.
Now is the time to do this, before Con-
gress takes mp the wool and farming products
schedules.
The paper is large eight-page quarto,
printed in large type, on fine white paper,
and plentifu!Iy illustrated. 1t is filled with
matter of great practical interest to all
farmers.
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE will be sent
with The american Farmer for one year for
SIPS. Present su bscribers to The NATIONAL
TRIBUNE can have TIE american Farmer
for one year by sending % cents additional.

GEN. A. WpinrcE.

-
The soldiers of the country have very
warm side for the gallant Gen. A. v. r ee,
OF Ottawa, o., who WAS such brave soldier
during the war, and Iias been such true
comrade since. 1t was he who, while in
Congress, and Chairman of the Committee
on Invalid Pensions, succeeded in getting
the Arrears of Pensions Bill through. which
put many millions Of dollars into the pock-
cts Of the veterans. Gen. Rice went ont in
the first three months service as the Captain
of company of his 'schoolmates and COM
panions in the 21st Ohio When this term
ended. he raised company for the 57th
Ohio, which Joined the Army of the Ten
nessee, and participated in all the magnifi-
cent fighting and campaigning Of that army,
until he received his final, disabling wound
on the Atlanta campaign. He was repeat
eddy wounded, but his last hurt cost hin, his
leg. This was amputated above the knee,
bat he has been in almost constant pain from
it ever since. Frequently the pain has been
so great that he was Frustrated by it, and
last month 1t was decided that something
had TO be done. He went to Chicago, and
DIR. Lydston, an eminent Surgeon, decided
after q careful examination TO perform an
operation. An iucision was made in the
under side of the leg for about 10 inches,
when a small tumor was found attached to
the sciatic nerve. This was removed, and the
General came out of the operation in very
good shape. Though he still suffers great
pain and nervous irritation, the wound Is
healing very satisfactorily, and it is believed
that he will have permanent relief.
His wife, whom Washington remembers
very pleasantly as a most charming woman,
and one well fitted to shine in any circle,
has been his faithful attendant during all
this suffering, and did all that loving minis
trations could to mitigate it.

THE PICTURE TELLS.

The picture with the explanatory sketch
under it has proved so educational and at
tractive that it has within the last 10 years
changed the whole force of modern journal
ism. But it has been in the past merely
skit or personal description or the detail of
some event. Suppose the picture and the
writing be utilized together, to tell almost
all the world has offered, and suppose, addi-
tionaily, that a great series of such combina-
ton be offered TO the readers of a newspaper
for almost nothingi That is what THE Ma
Tf0NAI TRIBUNE is enabled to do now.
Tae explanation appears III ano her column.
A great series of views, of character never
offered before in tire history of newspaper
enterprise, is put in the hands of THE Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE readers at practically no
price It is one Of the events in the story
of all journalism, and is q striking illustra-
ton OF what the newspaper may accomplish.
Ten years ago, five years ago, or one year
ago, the thing would have been impossible
The adornment of the home is not what
it used to be. There was time when what
was artistic and great cost more than what
is material. The engraving of any value
was more expensive than the old horse-hair
sofa, beloved Of our ancestor. But art and
science have made great leaps, and the
beautiful work of art upon the eenter-table
is now within the reach of all who are re-
fined enough or wise enough to secure it.
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE offers an opper-
tunity to seeare such work at price which
is hardly to be considered, but which will
surpass in beauty and value almost anything
ever given to the public. But little clip
ping from these columns, a little letter
writing, and the end is gained. An adver-
tisement in another column explains the
details.

pension through than it had to put down
the greatest rebellion the world ever saw
and that the physical labor of merely
handling those cases--of simply picking
them up and laying them down-had been
sufficient in the aggregate to have picked
up the entire army which Mcclellan had
led to the Peninsula, and carried it long
way toward Richmond.
These are few facts, and only few, to
illustrate the evasions of the solemn pledge
of the Government to care for him who bore
the heat and burden of the battle. We
could multiply them almost infinitely.
Now, gentlemen of Congress, will you not
end this great wrong by providing imme-
diately that every case now before the PEN
sion Bureau shall be settled ny the end Of
the present year? The case is urgent, and
becomes more so with every month that is
added to the age of the veterans. Delays
that were very wrong last year are flag
rantly so this year, when tens of thousands
who were alive last year to be the recipients
of justice will be dead before the end Of this
You cannot deny that % years from the time
of the close of the war are abundant for the
Government to close its accounts with the
men who rendered it service. You must
admit that to wait longer to carry out
promises to the men who fought from 1861
to lo65 would be wicked mockery of those
promises. Mephistopheles would laugh sar-
donically at promise of grateful care made
to man and not carried out till 80 years
later.
We ask you, in the name of the 100000
aged, broken, and needy veterans and their
widows, that yeu end this National shame
this National iDgratitude-by immediate
legislation making mandatory the settle
ment of every claim now before the Pension
Bureau within the year, and that you give
the Commissioner of Pensions the means to
carry out your mandate, redeem the Ma
ional honor, and give the deserving men
md women the rights which have long been
withheld from them.
Yours for the right,

been considered the sources of the revenue
of the States, Counties, and Municipalities
This is q question that constantly comes up,
while considering the Wilson Bill. The

more revenue than the General Government,
for they have much more to do. Where are
they going to get the money that they must
have, If the National Government appro-
