DEAN SHEPPARD STARTLES THE
SENATE HIGH COST CON-
MITTEE.
n. D. man GIVES FIGURES
Democrats Somewhat Surprised When
They Learn Machinery is Higher
In Canada Than in United
States.

Washington, May 12.-Testimony re-
the cost of living was given yesterday
before the senat committee investi-
eating the subject by ohn II. Shep-
pard. dean of the North Dakota Agri-
cultural college at Fargo. Dean Shep-
pard spoke of modern farm life, many
of which, he said. added to the cost of
living on the farms, and to the cost of
producing farm products.
He Said:
Il have made q rough estimate as to
how much this higher standard of liv-
ing amounts to, and have placed it at
80 cents an acre. 1t adds hat much to
the cost of production per acre"
The witness startled the democrats
when he testified that agricultural i'm
plcments were 2o per cent higher in
Canada thar in the United States. Dur
ing the early part of the inquiry the
democratic members of the committee
referred frequently to the "harvester'
trust and the tariff. and asked man.
questions about the increase in the cost
Of farming implements and machinerH.
you should compare the prices IN
the United States and across the border
in Canada suggested senator Clark
of Arkansas.
Agricultural implements are % per
cent higher in Canada thar in North
Dakota said Dean Sheppard.
"Higher,' exclaimed a democratic
senator.
The reply was in the affirmative.
Dean Sheppard told the committee
chat dollar wheat today is worth no
more to the farmer han so cent wheat
10 years ago. There has been an in
crease of $50 per cent in the price Of
lane while it's producing capacity has
been reduced 20 per cent in the same
period. There has been an increase of
10 per cent in the cost of farming i'm
plements and an increase of 60 per
cent in wages.
The witness also assorted thai with
the increase of wages paid to farm
help has come a decrease in efficiency.
There has been a scarcity of farm
labor, and the hired help are more in
dependent than formerly.

AN INTOLERABLE ITCHING

Just about two years ago, some
form of hume appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching but
it grew steadily worse until, when |
combed my hair, the scalp became
raw and the ends of the comb-tee+h
would be wet with blood. Most of the
time there was an intolerable itching,
IN a painful, burning way, very much
as a bad, raw burn, if deep, will itch
and smart when first beginning to
neal. Combing my hair was positive
torture. My hair was long and tan
gled terribly because of the blood and
scabs. This continued growing worse
n over half my hair fell out. was
in despair, really afraid of becoming
totally bald.
sometimes the pain vas SO great
that, when partially awake, l would
scratch the worst places so that my
1nger-tips would be bloody. could
not sleep we'll and, after being asleep
a short time, that awful singing pain
would commence and then | would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said it must be salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
a toilet soap before, l now decided to
order a set Of the Cuticura Remedies
-Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills.
l used them according to directions
for perhaps six weeks, then left off,
as the disease seemed to be eradi-
Gated, but toward spring, eighteen
months ago, there was a slight re.
turn OF the scalp humor. l COM
menced the Cuticura treatment at
once, so had very little trouble. On
my scalp used about one half a cake
OF Cuticura Soap and half a box of
Cutlcura Ointment in all. The first
time | took six or seven bottles of Gu.
tlcura Pills and the last time three
bo1tles-neither an expensive or te.
