FARM NOTES

There is money to be made milking
good COWS, but we want to place a
lot OF emghasis on the word good. A
COW is something that gives returns
twice each day aud return that is
below an average of what good COW
should do soon counts into dollars
lost, On the other hand. the cow that
produces more than the average soon
piles up dollars that go into the pro
lit account. We are almost inclined
to advise getting good cows from the
start or not starting at all.

HUMAN RACE AFFLICTED
WITH QUEER DISEASE
Cooper Says Internal Parasites Cause Much
Suffering Everywhere.

The following remarkable statement
was recently made by l.. T. Cooper
1t concerns the preparation which has
been so widely discussed throughout
the country during the past year, and
has sold in such enormous quantities
in leading cities:
st is now a well-known fact that
wherever have introduced my New
Discovery medicine, hundreds of peo-
pie have brought internal parasites,
or tapeworms, to me. In many cases
these people did not know the nature
of the parasite, and were consequently
extremely nervous until I explained
the matter to them. In some cities so
many have had this experience that
the public generally became alarmed.
u take this opportunity of explain
ing what these creatures are, and what
/ have learned about them in the past.
Tapeworms are much more COM
mon than would be supposed. ven
ture to say that ten per cent. of all
chronic stomach trouble, or what is
known as a rundown condition, is
caused by them. An individual may
suffer for years with one of these great
parasites and not be aware of it.

USE FOR LEyEL.HEADEDNEss.

If there is one thing more than an
other that we Americans are proud Of
it is our national Ievel-headedness. We
know we are Ievel-headed to a greater
degree than the poor mortals who live
under any other flag. Time and time
again our Fourth of July orators, stump
speakers and newspapers have informed
US of this fact, although it really wasn't
necessary. We knew it all the time.
Being level-headed, we, as a people,
are going to find out good many things
about our government which, as share
holders, we ought to know. 1t is in the
air this desire to understand things
which, in the past, we have left in the
hands of those peculiar n.en-the po-
liticians and the captains of industry
and the kings of finance. We have
even felt, many of US, that the bust
ness of running the affairs of our coun-
try the greatest and the best country
on Gods footstool-was too dirty for US
to NEEDLE with. To be interested in
politics in any way, except as a few
self-appointed leader directed US tn
be, was to invite ridicule and bad
names. If there is anything an Anne ii
can is afraid of there isn't it's ridi-
Guile. But all this is neither here nor
there.
One of the things level-headed Ameri-
cans are beginning to inquire into is
the reason for a panic in the midst of
unprecedented prosperity. Who sprung
the blame thing, anyway, and how was
it possible? Investigation along the
line suggested by this question will
probably bring to light a great many
interesting things. Level-headed Amer
leans will find out and it will be good
employment for their leve.-headedness.
"A wise exchange.

HOOKING no THE NEW YEAR.

The Wall Street Journal of finance
says that people differ as to the lengpt
OF the depression, but there is we'll
informed section of the business world,
which pins its faith to a rising star,
and looks for fairly active season foI
trade from New Year to the opening Of
spring. They base their views on the
fact that consumption outside of lux.
uries and high-priced necessities, is
gong on steadily; that the consuming
world as a whole has not lost its pur-
chasing power to any great extent, anc
that as business throughout the countr+
