PAINS AROUND THE HEART

When the action of the stomach is
weakened by debility or defective nerve
force the food is retained until itfcrments.
Gas forms and presses on the other Or
gans, particularly the heart, the pains in
that region often causing fear of heart
trouble. Organic heart disease rarely
causes pain around the heart and when
this symptom is noted you should try
toning up your digestion before giving
way to needless alarm.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are a tonic
that directly affects the organs of diges-
ton. They supply to the stomach the
rich, red blood without which normal d.
gestion is impossible. They awaken into
activity the gastric glands and strengthen
the muscles of the stomach and give the
nerve force necessary to proper digestion
and assimilation. With thin blood and
weak nerves it is impossible to avoid
stomach trouble. Build up the blood
and strengthen the nerves and note the
increased appetite, the comfortable feel

who were formerly his best customers.
The farmer, in short, has been forced
into the ''world market" at the expense
of his own rich, exclusive, unequalled
home market. He must face foreign
competition, based on scale of living
that is far below his own. He no longer
is the exclusive purveyor to the richest,
hungriest, most extravagant 100, 900, 900
people in the world. He has rivals who
are more patient, more thrifty than him.
self. In exchange for this monopoly he is
given an opportunity to buy foreign-made
articles at reduced tariff rates.
What farmer in the United States be-
lieves that his own prosperity is enhan-
ced when the prosperity of industry is
impaired or destroyed? Does he not wish
10 see workingmen employed at wages
that will enable them to pay for the food
he furnishes? What farmer would will
ingly change his standard of living, in
order to compete with the foreign farmer
whose chief field animals are his wife and
daughters? Yet the American farmer
must change his standards, to some de-
gree, at least, if he is to share the Amer
lean market with the foreign farmer. The
foreigner will improve his condition. and
perhaps he will soon be riding in an auto
mobile, like the American farmer.
But at whose expense?

FACTS ABOUT PUMP.
KINS.

In the current issue of Farm and Fire
side appears an article entitled ''1n De-
tense of the Pumpkin" The following
facts about pumpkins and the uses to
which they can be put are taken from
the article:
Pumpkins are largely composed of
water, and so some agricultural writers
have declared that pumpkins have but
little value as stock food. The same
objection might be made against grass,
which everybody knows is the best food
in the world for farm live stock. Pump
kins, in my experience, are as valuable
to feed to cows and steers as turnips,
rutabagas, and beets.
"Horses are fond of pumpkins and will
eat them without any cutting up. They
are healtbful for horses that are kept
on dry feed when fed in moderation.
"Hogs will eat pumpkins, and they
are cheap and wholesome feed for them
when ted in connection with grain. We
cut the pumpkins into small pieces
which can be eaten easily, and put them
into the trough instead of breaking them
up and throwing them into the pen. We
find it pays we'll for the time spent in
cutting. The pumpkins are fed in the
morning when appetites are keen, and
before the grain is given"

lLARGELY TO FOREIGNERS.
Money Received by Farmers for the Big
Crops Will Pay for Supplies from Abroad,
Formerly Furnished by American Manu-
[From the Washington Post, Ind't]

From the Washington Post, 1nd't]
One of the considerations in connection
with the big crops of this country is that
the money received by the farmer will go
largely to foreigners in exchange for sup
plies formerly furnished by American
manufacturers.
The new tariff theory was worked out
with an idea that the farmer should OBJ
tain big reductions on all articles pur-
chased by him, to Offset reductions in ar
ticles furnished by him. So, in order to
benefit this one class of Americans. the
the tariff was slashed where it would in
jure other classes.
The farmer is not yet feeling the full
effect of foreign competition, although
he is losing 81, 900, 900 month to foreign
farmers. This is rapidly increasing as for
eigners discover what fine melon has
been placed at their disposal in the shape
OF a market in America. Meanwhile, the
American farmer is busy with his huge
crops, which he will sell both at home and
abroad. When he comes to buy, tn areby
completing the round of the years work,
he will make two interesting discoveries
first, that the price of his stuff is get
ting lower, as result Of foreigne s COM
ing into his market, and, second, that his
money is going abroad to sustain foreign
factory employees instead of Americans,
