prices below prohibitive levels.
The nation has in recent yeare
drawn too heavily upon the source OF
fat beef output. without due regard to
the future of the supply. Farmers OF
the corn belt have been prone to look
to the west and southwest for their
supplies Of feeding cattle. not realizing
that the increasing population 10 con

duction Of fat beeves.
Time has arrived when the west, Q
few years back the breeding ground
for the corn belt feeders. is no longer
able to supply feeding cattle to the
farmers Of Missouri, Iowa, Illinois
Indiana and Ohio except at almost fai
steer prices. The situation is growing
more acute each year. Within the
past two years the effect of home pro
duction Of beef steers in the states Of
the middle west has been a relatively
shorter supply Of beef than consump
tive capacity required, and the results
have been higher average prices fol
fat steers than realized in thirty yeart
past. But instead of general prosper
ity it has been prosperity for the few
because cattle raising and feeding has
declined.

IMPORTANCE OF CLEAN SEED
Corn Crop Of Country Has Been In.
creased Millions Of Bushels BY
Good Seed Selection.

No farmer can get any one to take
the same pains in grading his seed
that he would himself. Some farmers
claim that 1t does not pay to clean
grain.
The corn crop Of this country has
been increased millions of bushels by
intelligent seed selection. All other
grain crops can be improved by grad
ing the seed. SO that only good. plump,
healthy grains, free from all foul
weed seeds may be sown.
The tanning mill, judiciously used
will do much to increase the yield of
every small grain crop and assist in
keeping our fields free from noxious
weeds.
1t will take cookie out OF wheat,
buckthorn, plantain out of clover. in
fact, it can be adjusted SO as to han
die all kinds of grain and weed seeds.
If you decide that it pays to SOW
good seed and to keep your fields
free from noxious weeds, then do not
hesitate to invest a few dollars in
a tanning mill

The elder brother was indeed bidden
to the feast; but he was angry and re-
fused to come. Jealous that the father
should receive the young spendthrift.
The elder brother class did not show
the right spirit for those for whom the
Kingdom privileges were intended. all
OF whom must be meek. gentle. loving
copies Of Gods dear Son in their
generous Good will toward all desir-
Gus of coming to the Father.
The Principle Applies Broadly.
While this parable illustrated the
two classes OF Jews. the principle set
forth applies generally. In the world
there are noble characters. well-b born
and apparently the very ones to be
chosen of God to be joint theirs with
His Son in the Kingdom. Neverthe-
less. the Scriptures make clear that
not many such will be Of the Kingdom
clnss. Il Corinthians l:26-29., This
better class. represented by the elder
brother. seem to feel that in contrast
with the lower strata they are perfec-
ton itself: and that God would surely
desire them.
But all are sinners. whether they
know 1t or not: and all should be hon
est enough to confess the fact. God
requires this very honesty. this con-
fe$siOn Of our need. before Christ's
merit can be imputed to us. covering
our blemishes. God evidently wishes
to have class honest enough to ac-
knowledge their own imperfectiOns
and unworthiness Of His favors
Those who 50 confess He will bless
with knowledge Of themselves and
Of His righteousness: whereas others.
self-satisfied and unwilling to accept
His grace in Christ or to confess their
need of covering for their blemishes.
are not humble enough to be Of the
Kingdom class.

Thus 1t comes that the majority of
those who accept Gods favor and be-
come His children are from the young

In the parable the father evidently

the two geaeral classes into which the
Jewish nstion had divided itself. The
elder son class were those who sat in
Noses seat. professed loyalty to God
and Outwardly endeavored to keep His
LAW. The younger son class were
those who had misused their privileges

and wasted their opportunities in self

This class Of publicans and sinners

Chiropractic Pointers
By G. NJ. OTTO. ID. C.
No. 7

NATURE frequently brings about
spontaneous adjustments. We go 10
bed at night exhausted oy the days
work, BODY aches and head aches /;
there would rot be any ache had not
nerves been pressed upon at some
point where pressure is possible.
The most reasonable place TO look
, for such pressure would be where the
nerve leaves the spinal column, and
where soft nerve tissue meY be pressed
upon by coming in contact with hard
bone. We awake in the morning and
find all aches and pains gone; during
sleep relaxation takes place, pressure
is relieved and the system is again
normal.
Why do spontaneous adjustments
not always take place? Because very
often the vertebrate are thrown 50 far
out of alignment that nature cannot
bring about spontaneous adjustment
and acute and chronic disease will
manifest itself wherever the nerve or
nerves terminate. OR a severe con-
traction of the muscle holding the
vertebrae in line may not relax suf-
ficiently for nature to restore normal
alignment.
When nature cannot rring about
spontaneous adjustments, the inter
yention of mechanical measures be
comes necessary 10 relieve the condi-
tion. and here is where Chiropractic
shows It's remarkable power. the oper-
ator simply detects the point of pres
sare upon the nerve and removes 1t.
with proper spinal adjustments as
s,;ven At our offices, 81 Jefferson ST.,
relief is certain.

UNIVERSAL LIBERTY.

So, now, in this crisis of the
fate of liberty, if any of the re-
nowned men of this nation
should betray her cause, it We're
better that he had been I'M
known to fame. 1t need not be
hoped that the brightness of
their past glory wiz dazzle the
eyes of posterity, or illumine the
pages of impartial history. A
few of its rays may still linger
on a fading sky, but they will
very soon be whelmed in dark
ness, for unless progressive
civilization and the increasing
lote of freedom throughout the
Christian and civilized world
are fallacies the sun of liberty,
of universal liberty, is already
above the horizon and fast cours-
ing to his meridian splendor.
where no advocate of slavery, no
apoIogist Of slavery, can look
upon his face and live.-Thad-
deus Stevens in Congress, 1880.

PREVENTION OF FRECKLES.
Even if They Cannot Be 5anished Care
Will Reduce Their Number.


Those who freckle very easily should
remember that prevention is better
than cure and make point of wearing
shady hats and carrying parasols in
summer. They should never omit APP
plying face cream and powder before
going out of doors; only the mereSt
busting of powder is necessary.
Massage helps great deal in pre-
venting and Graduating freckles. Pro
tecting the skin in the manner pre-
scribed serves To prevent freckles also.
Some skins are so delicate that they
freckle very. very quickly in the sum
mer. Glycerin and rosewater mixed
In the proportion of two ounces of
glycerin TO one ounce of rosewater
make a splendid freckle lotion. In
the case of some skins the addition Of
about four ounces of lemon juice TO the
the glycerin and rosewater has splen-
di6 results. 1t should be applied sew
eral times daily and literally at night
time.

Precious salt.

Precious Salt.
What is known as 'radium'' is a
radium salt, usually either radium
bromide or radium chloride, sometimes
radium sulphate. Tiny grains of these
salts are extremely precious and are
usually sealed up in little glass bulbs.
The radium I'm one OF the first bulbs
that were received in London had a
curious history A physician in Port
land place was applying the bulb 10 q
patient when he accidentally let it fall
and a moment after crushed it under
his foot. The value of the radium to
the physician was very great. He re
moved his boots from his feet and cut
out square of his valuable carpet.
He had boots and carpet burned and
out of the ashes refined the original
radium salt.
