Almost every other paper one picks up
nowadays contains an account of how
some sharper has succeeded in getting
advantage of the poor farmer in swind-
ling him out of his hard-aarned cash.
We do not see why the bunco man can't
swindle people with other occupations
unless it is that the farmer is the only
one that has the cash in bank. The papers
would have us believe the farmer is fool,
and that he is always ready TO sign any
and all papers that seem TO contain bar

as paper is patient, and one can print any
thing on it. And again, the duped are

world and strangers to us. We think the
farmer has had more notoriety i'm this
line than he deserves.
