One of the most important decisions

to protect themselves against fraud by
manufacturers of food products, was
given when tie Wisconsin supreme

by the state. The case was Bitterly

Standard Oil influence, the active de-

composed of more than rs per cent of
glucose and less than 25 per cent of

chapter 557, of the laws of 1907, which
requires such mixture to be labeled
and sold as glucose favored with cane

THE FARM AS AN ASSET

While the railroads and the indus.
tries represent great blocks of capital,
contributing largely to the wealth and
stability of the nation, the farms of the
country total more wealth than these
two great forces combined.
The Orange Judd Farmer" is send
ing out some statistics, recently COM
piled, which are of interest, because
reliable, and because they demonstrate
that the farm is the foundation of ma
tional prosperity.
The number of farms in the United
States is 6, 730, 600, anincrease of !, 900,
600 during the last decade. The value
is placed at $50, 600, 0Oe, 900 and the
product for 1909 represents SO, 900, 600,
600 nearly 33 per cent on the capital
invested.
That's better than a gold mine, a
railroad, FAC Dry, a commercial bust
ness, or any other Investment, unless il
be Standard Oil
Much of the farm land has doubled
and quadrupled in value, during the
past 10 years and many moderate for
tunes have been made by this natural
Increase.
This is especially true of the Dakotas,
Kansas, Nebraska, and other western
states. The farmers boy today is the
favored son of fortune. There is nc
channel of business which offers any
such inducements as the farm, and q
clerkship isn't in it for minute.
While life is a lottery representing
more blanks than prizes, the farm i:
by far and away the safest medium fol-
Investment. The land never runs
away, never burns up. and the forces
of nature are reliable partners. Stay by
the farm.

SAVING EXPENSE IN OUR covERNMEAr

The United States now has an ex-
penditure, all told, of over 81, 900, 600, :
900 a year. The savings that have
been reported as possible by the diff
ferent departments in various branches
Of the work run from five to forty per
cent. Men who have been active in
the administration efforts for economy
in the departments estimate that if
congress win cooperate in the en-
ployment of experts, certainly $780,
OOO,O 900 a year can be cut off from pub
lie expenditures, simply by doing the
same emount of work that we now ac-
complish by better business methods.
This means that the cost Of government
can be reduced by more than the entire
cost Of the federal government in any
year before the civil war. AS an an
nual saving this is an immense prize,
and is worthy of the concentrated eff
forts Of the entire administration.
The statement has been made that
if single business man were put in
charge Of the entire administration Of
the government, and given free hand
consolidating activities SIS he saw ft,
frightening hours of labor-in other
words, running the government exactly
as a well conducted private business is
run-as much as $500, 900, 600 year
could be saved. Ehis may be so. What
/ am aiming at is to accomplish the
very large saving that can be secured
in spite of governmental conditions of
work. From an interview with the
