The farmer is the man who has the
opportunity of contributing to the prosper
ity of the country. No producer is in bet
ter position to do SO than he. Financial
depression has in no way bothered him, be-
cause there has been continuous demand
for his products. Farmers have received
topnotch prices for their crops. The price
of grain is high, and that alone is bound to
stimulate the planting of it, which will
necessarily make big crop when harvested.
Unfortunately, there is no ovcrproduction,
which, Of course. makes things high.

ALL MEN APOLLOS
Widened Jaw, Shortened In
testines, and Strengthened
Toes Create Beauty
HARMFUL TO MANY
Boston Surgeons Say All Can Be
Handsome if They Face
Operations.

Boston, Mass, Dec. 1.-The leading
Boston surgeons are working on
these ideals for improving man:
Enlarge the jaws to make room for
the teeth and give the face a chance
to develop
Cut out six feet of the large intes-
tine, an operation which incidentally
may aid digestion.
Straighten the toes so that man
or woman may achieve a graceful and
healthful gait.
DR.. Edward Fl. Nichols, one of the
most famous specialists in the country
OIL intestinal operations, summed up
the idea, saving:
at is evident that as much as six
feet of the large intestine may be re-
moved and the patient recover. To
take out more than six feet is not sue
cessful in majority of cases: but the
theory has been advanced that a mans
digestion is better when he has a
shortened intestine"
Urges Return to Bare Feet.
To take in the two other extremes
o9 the body-the toes and the teeth
there is an equal chance of improve
ment on nature, according to the ex-
perts. DR. e. H. Bradford, who has
lectured before the Harvard Medical
school on the subject of orthopedic
surgery, declared that the average city
man could improve his feet his man
ner of walking, and his general health
by going barefoot a few weeks every
summer as preliminary to getting i'll
shape to wear sensible shoes.
But it is in the careful operations
on the teeth that the most improve
ment is to be found, according to men
who have made this their life study,
since they declare that by the most ad-
vanced methods the shape of mans
face may be changed along with his
health, and, in some cases, his dispo-
sition and psychological attitude.
Samuel A. Hopkins, M. D., DID. S.,
professor of dental theory and practice
at Tufts college and a member of the
dental hygiene council of Massachu-
setts, holds the opinion that the teeth
of Americans, and especially of New
England residents, are not only prone
to be badly distributed in the jaws, but
are liable to early decay.
Pie Eating Destroys Teeth.
DR. Hopkins ascribes this overcrowd-
ing of the teeth to the mixture of races
in America, while he declares that
the decay of teeth in New England is
due to the prevalence of pie eating.
"And how are these unfortunate con.
ditions met today?" he asked. I'm reg
ulating the teeth We find as a general
thing that it better to expand the jaw
by springs or plates, for instance. OF
course, after the jaws have been eX
panded and the teeth regulated there
remains the necessity Of constant care
in the sort of food eaten and the clean
ing of the teeth
