Upon the earnest request Of the
Union Pacific officials and looking to-
ward an adjustment the Eaton town
council, through its attorney. James
Gault, will withdraw its temporary in
junction suit against the railroad cons
pany for the present. Differences arose
between the town and the company ~
to the kind Of depot which che latter
should build. The company hauled
material for a wooden depot and when
the town council prohibited its erection
in the fire limits took its material
away. The town, becoming impatient
over the long delay of the railroad,con-
pany to grant the town a right of way
for street crossings, started condemna-
ton suits. The suit by agreement is
now put off until October Is, wheu a
meeting Of the Eaton town council will
be held.

Feed Ss,sffs Co;as Higher.

There can be no doubt about the big
est element in the cause for the in
creased prices food stu6s have been
steadily commanding in recent years
being found in the top heaviness Of our
American cities. The country hes been
practically standing still in the matter
of population, but the cities are grow
ing out Of all proportion. Most
of the incoming people from. foreign
lands not only stop in the larger cities,
but the movement from the country to
the town goes on steadily to increase
the disproportion. Uncle Jim Hill is
largely right in pointing to what this
all means-further increases until the
people turn back to the farms again.
High prices for farm products oper-
ate in way to make them continually
higher. Beef goes up on the market
and the tendency is to ship OF every
thing on the farm that il marketable.
That creates shortage and initiates
against next years supply and that of
the years after in turn. 1t cuts Of the
available milch cows and butter, high
before, keeps going higher, because the
cows are no longer waiting to be
MIXED. Meats and butter are already
out Of Ill proportion by the housewives
standard of intrinsic value, yet there
seems no immediate prospect of :any-
thing but still higher prices. Statis-
ticians are proving that the world il
not growing even in bumper years
enough wheat for its annual consump-
ton. This condition has prevailed
since four years ago when the visible
surplus was quite consumed. Last
spring, following one of the heaviest
crops the world has ever grown, mills
shut down all over the country because
there was no wheat to grind::into flour;
price had nothing to do with it; the
wheat simply did not exist.
Naturally commercial world which
is regulated on the basis of supply and
demand cannot but respond with it's
prices to this fact that the country is
actually failing to produce enough of
what the people eat. Prices must con-
tinue to climb until the protection il
increased, for the supply of i,mouths
waiting to be fed grows steadily.
People turned away from farming be-
cause it was less profitable than lother
occupations. Farms hands went into
the factories because it paid better
and providad more continuous employ
ment. The balance has been disturbed
and can only be readjusted by the pro-
fits of the farm climbing to point
which offsets the attractions of city
life and factory employment. 1t would
seem, therefore, that we are in for it
for long time yet, and then can only
escape either by turning farmers or
making it an inducement for enough of
our neighbors to do so in way which
guarantees them fully as good time
of it on the farm as we who remain be-
hind can get out of the city. -Ex.

The Fighting Mccoo,k..

Another of the famous fighting Nc
Cooks" of Ohio has been mustered out,
reports the Chicago Tribune. The
death in a Chicago hospital recalls
again this famous family whose mill
5ary record is unparalleled in American
history. The two sons of Scotch
Irish immigrant who came to Pennsyl-
vania just as the revolutionary war
closed, Daniel and John McCook, saw
fourteen boys grow up in their two
homes to become staunch defenders of
the union in the civil war. Their pat
riotic enthusiasm was accompanied by
executive skill which brought them
shoulder straps, nearly everyone in the
two families, the fathers included, be-
coming officers in the union army and
winning fame by their deeds of brav-
cry.
The Lincoln centennial celebration
made familiar touching letter written
by the tender-hearted war president to
Mrs. Bixby of Massachusetts, when
the adjutant general told him that she
was the mother of five sons who had
died in battle as they were fighting for
their country Hers was not the only
family where the boys all went to war.
Some of the records show astonishing
devotion on the part of American
youth. But there is no family whose
military distinction reached that of the
McCooks. The sure march of time is
again indicated by the announcement of
the death of another of the boys at
the age of 76. Nearly all have heard
the last rollcall.

New York Medical Expert Locates
Dyspepsia's Beginning in the Head.

New York, April DR. Samuel G.
Tracy, who announced year ago that
old age could be retarded by the use
of high frequency" electric currents,
read a paper before the Bloomingdale
clinic Monday night at his home, 240
West One Hundred and Second street,
in which he declared many cases of
dyspepsia are due to an irritated brain
center and that such cases could be
relieved by the use of high fire.
quency" currents. He called the di-
sease brain dyspepsia" In looking
upon dyspepsia as disordered state
of the stomach or intestines, DR..
Tracy said, ''the fact is lost sight of
that many cases of dyspepsia are due
to disturbed nervous system, an ir-
ritated brain center or a loss of con-
troll of the sympathetic nerves"
A brain worker, DR.. Tracy said,
whose prolonged activity tends to
lower his digestive powers needs
more treatment for his nervous sys-
TEN than for his digestive apparatus.
brain dyspepsia" he explained, was
merely case of trouble of the ner-
vous system, generally affecting the
nerves of the stomach, and, as a con-
equence, the digestive glands, not hav-
ing necessary stimulus, do not supply
the proper quantity and quality of di-
gestive juices.
