u. s. Warns Against ~
Alleged Hog Cholera Cures

Washington, D.. c., May 90
Evidence of what appears to be
a we'll organized campaign to de-
lude farmers throughout the coun-
try into buying an alleged cure for
hog cholera, under the impression
that this has been investigated and
approved by the United States
Government, has reached the De-
partment of Agriculture. Articles
praisining this medicine, Benetol
bv name, are being sent out wide
spread to newspapers. These artl-
cles are so worded that it appears
as if the Department of Agriculture
had received reports from the state
of Minnesota showing that the med
icine had proved most beneficial.
As a matter of fact the one report
received by the Department was
an unofficial and unsolicited state
ment sent presumably from the
promoters themselves. The De-
partment attaches no Importance
whatsoever to this statement. 1t
has no reason to believe in the efflc-
iency of any proprietary cure for
hog cholera and does not recon-
mend any. Under certain condi-
tons it urges farmers to protect
their stock with anti-hog-cholera
serum but that is all.

HOW THE NEW CURRENCY BILL
AGFFCTS THE FARMER

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside, the national farm paper
published at Springfield, O., United
Staths Senator Robert L. Owen Of
Oklahoma, tells as follows, how the
new currency bill BENEFITS the farm
er:
Under the American banking
system, where we have had twenty.
five thousand independent banks,
each holding its own resources, the
banks have been compelled to relv
severally upan their own cash
resources, and to keep their com
mercial bills as liquid as possible,
of short maturities. easily CONVEX
tible into cash. For this reason
the bankers have not been able,
consistent with such a policy, to
extend sufficiently or at low enough
interest rates the class of accom-
rlodations to farmers which the
farmers chiefly need such as loans
for fertilizers which would be used
in the spring and could not be paid
for until the crop was gathered in
the fall; such as for farm machinery
and such as for the building of sios,
or for improvements on the farm
which would increase its productive
power, although such loans could
be wisely made, and would be safe
as far as security of payment is
concerned.
But under the new banking and
currency system, which will provide
an open large discount market for
commercial bills, which the banks
have not heretofore enjoyed except
in a hazardous, uncertain fashion,
there will be open also for the
banks much larger percentage of
Investment loans of the character
above described.
THE farm-mortgage provision
in the currency bill; allowing
mortgages to be made an five-year
terms, ought to open up a farm
mortgage market which will furnish
the farmers a considerable amount
of money for permanent farm i'm
provements, as well as the invest
ment in silos, in farm machinery,
or in fertilizers, ETC."

there was not a day passed that
shesdidnot receive some taker of
loving thoughts from neighbors
and friend, both of delicacies to

James Montgomery Flagg, the well-

"Picture the nervous strain on

the gradual budding, blossomIng,

they sadly watch the head of the

cloud of brambles.
See those outstretched dlmpIed
arms and hear those sobbing voices,
'Cume back to us, Papa!'
isn't your pride touched on
the raw when your wife lifts up
the door mat in the vestibule and
kisses it good night on account of
it's comparative sickness? Stop!
Consider! you, who though some
inherited mental weakness do not
know the difference between right
and whiskers, hesitate! Why add
to the strain of family life? Even
if you have provided your wife with
vacuum cleaner why multiply the
cares of a busy housekeeper?
"Ask yourself if it will add in any
way to the pleasure of anyone in
the family. When your mother

place that has to be ransar ked?
Men who embark on a career

loop up those vines with portiere

egg in without mutilatlng it?'
