About Hayforks

Two years ago the Hawkins hard
ware store introduced an improve
ment in hayforks over the old style
that was greatly appreciate by the
farmers. This hay tool bears the
famous Keen Kutter brand. 1t is
especially appreciated in handling
alfalfa, as the construction of the
tines permits no hay to hang on the
fork. 1t is a time saver and la
Dor saver and there is a large de-
mand for this fork. We have al
ready sold large numbers of them.
If you haven't already used it, call
at the store and let us show you
its advantages. We know you will
like it. We have other kinds of
forks, too. Hawkins hardware.

WANT NEW ANTITRUST LAW
President Would Supplement Sherman
Act

President Would Supplement Sherman
Act.
Washington, Nov. IA. - President
Taft's first work at the White House
upon his return was conference with
Attorney General Wickersham. The
question of recommending legislation
supplementing the Sherman antitrust
law was discussed. This proposed
legislation will be designed to make
clearer what constitutes a violation of
the Sherman antitrust law.
While the president is seriously con-
sidering the advisability of recon-
mending legislation that will specify
more particularly acts that constitute
violations of the Sherman antitrust
law, it is already apparent that several
of the party leaders are inclined to re-
gard unfavorably any effort to supple
ment the Sherman law at the coming
session of congress. Senator Smoot Of
Utah, one of the Republican leaders,
does not believe that Mr.. Taft will Sc
cure any trust legislation at this ses-
sion of congress.
Senator Smoot also is pessimistic re-
garding currency reform, arguing it as
