farmer and dealer. The surplus of corn,
wheat, cotton and other cereals Will not

II this moderate surplus was TO be
bought and used by our own people there
might be some question as TO tiie public
interest in large or small prices. but as 1t
is to be sold to foreign countries high
prices will be best for the general In
terests OF our country.
This brings us TO a consideration OF next
years crop, without d knowledge of which
We can not manage the surplus OF this
Yeas crop SO as to get most out OF 1t.

farmers who have old corn to sell. The
query about It is whether II Will pay 10
sell the old corn and buy the new, sup
posing you could sell the one and GUY the
other at about the same price.
Old corn loses perhaps 10 per cent by
Keeping 1t over the second winter anu
new corn loses as much by shrinkage.
II farmers and country dealers should
move together and sell the old corn the
pilces OF the new would go down ond
they could buy the new at lower prices.

not supposed that large farmers and small

Their Suppression.
To the Editor Of The Post.
Meridian, Texas. September 6.-I SEQ
the physicians of Texas have suggested a
bill to regulate the practice of medicine IN
this State, and as this county has had
some recent trouble with queck 90 tors,
medical charlaans and humbugs. a few
suggestions may he in order at this time.
The mau who arms himself with a bogus
diploma and goes to tampeTing with hu-
man life is a character that all god mon
should help suppress by the most dras /;
legal methods. The State can take no
dispositions, nor force a witness into the
State TO testify IN any case, hence we may
know dellow has purchased a diploma IN
Chicago and that he Is a yertable fraud.
Yet the State can get no evidence and the
quack walks off to brag and blow about
the court sustaining his diploma rs the
genuine stuff. The statute says a diploma
from some accredited medical college must
be held and yet leaves it with no depart
ment of our State government to say what
is and what is not an accredited college.
Suppose we could take dispositions in Chi
cago as to a diploma mill run there. the
defense would simply object TO the best
physicians Of said city giving their opin-
ions as to a college being an accred ted
medical college, etc. Since the decision
in the oldeuhoven case (56, S. w. r.. page
914), the quaeks have full sway in Texas.
This opinion is the law and doubtless Will
prove a blessing in getting US a god Law
to regulate these evil doors Aod grave dig
gers. In view Of the above my suggest on
IS that every physician be required to go
before a medical board or leave 1t discre
tlonary with the medical board after q
diploma is suspected by 1t, rs TO whether
the holder shan submit 1t to an eXanlin
ton; provided, all plomas are examined
by the respective boards and the result OF
the inspection is Endorsed thereon, which
Endorsement shall be prima facle evidence
Of its suficiency, etc. In other words, let
the ban Of suspicion rest on every diploma
until some Texas board or department OF
State has put the proper in lorsement
thereon. This would cost each physician
something, but 1t would weed out the
fakes and lessen the number OF graves.
Again II should be made felony to lise
one Of these bogus diplomas; for thief 70
take a mans yeprliug is a felony and for
a medical fraud TO take his life ought to
be a crime.
I Let lis make It as hot for quack hold
1 ing bogus diplAga as we have for a
/ thief holding q bogus bill OF sale.
