CHICAGO. June 2S.-IWet delay to har-

today in the value of wheat. The result
was a steady close at &c to 2M02kc net

Soaking rains and heavy winds through
out large sections of Oklahoma, Kansas
and Missouri put the wheat bears at a
disadvantage from the start Many
traders took the view that in consequence
of the storm effects the movement of new
wheat would be much hindered and that
the main pressure of hedging sales would
not be felt in July. The consequence was
persistent buying of options for that
month. Every dip in wheat led to a

BUSINESS ME- TH0DS
FARM MANAGEM' Mt

ATHENS. Ga. Dec. 23.-One of the
phases of work to be emphasized by
farm demonstration agents during
the coming year, as agreed upon at
the meeting of agents recently held at
the College of Agriculture, is to in
struct farmers in simple methods of
accounting profits and loss, in other
words. how to introduce business
methods into farming.
Preliminary to the campaign, Prof.
S. H. Starr of the Department of Ar
ronomy of the College has been as
signed to collect farm data or rather
make farm survey. This is for the
purpose of not only providing data
but also an average of conditions in
the state. Cooperative work has also
been done with the federal govern
ment in farm survey work in the
state, the data for which is at hand.
By the adoption of the system pro-
posed, it is claimed that farmer can
tell what crops are profitable, how
much each is netting him and what
are Improbable and how much so.
The farm demonstration agents, other
wise known as county agents, are to
be instructed so that when called upon
they can figure out for the farmer his
financial status.
In view of the changing conditions
i the state incident to the presence
of the boil weevil, it is considered i'm
portant at this time for the farmer to
learn to know how to figure on returns
from crops other than cotton, also on
livestock; and as far as possible o
figure in advance wha would be most
profitable of various crops and live
stock for each farmers particular
conditions.

Government
Goes After All
Fake Medicines

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 23.-Ac-
ton against several so-called kidney
cures" has recently been taken under
tie food and drugs act by the United
States department of agriculture. In
one case the shippers of a preparation
labeled as Sure Cure For Bladder
and Kidney Trouble were prosecuted
on the charge of falsely and fraudu-
lently misbranding the product. They
pleaded guilty and were fined $25 and
costs by the court. This particular
kidney cure was found to contain
over Al per cent of alcohol. 1t was
labeled "Old Jim Fields Phosphate Din
and Gin, Mankind's Greatest Friend.
A Sure Cure For Bladder and Kidney
Trouble. 1t is Also a Great Aid in
Case of Urinary Trouble Allenberg &
Meister, Sole Agents, Memphis, Tenn
An analysis of the product showed
that it contained no material amount
of either dill or phosphate.
In another case of 4S bottles of
'Stuart's Buchu and Juniper Com
pound" prepared by the Stuart Manu-
featuring Company, Atlanta, Georgia,
we're seized The court issued de-
cree of condemnation, forfeiture and
destruction on the ground that the
claims upon the label were misleading,
false and fraudulent On this label
the manufacturers recommended their
product as remedy for great variety
OF kidney and bladder diseases nd
stated that the medicine contained 16
per cent. of alcohol.
According to medical experts of the
department, alcohol is kidney irri-
tant and is dangerous in many cases of
kidney disease. For this reason many
physicians advise their patients who
suffer from any kind of kidney or blad-
der trouble to abstain from the use of
alcohol, even in moderate quantities.
Some manufacturers of kidney medi-
cines which contain considerable guam
titles of alcohol also advise their Gus
toners to abstain from all alcoholic
drinks, showing in this way that they
know the harmfullness of alcohol in
kidney diseases, even though they use
it in their own preparations. 1t is the
opinion of the medical experts of the
that such so-called kid
new remedies as these recently seized |
are not only worthless, but actually |
harmful, because of the amount of al |
cohol which they contain.

againt indiscriminate use on foreign
mail. Red Cross seals in normal
times may be used on the reverse
side Of mail matter sent to Austria,
Germany, Great Britain and most of
the British colonies, except India
and Australia. Guatemala, Uruguay
and Portugal refuse to admit mail
bearing non postage stamps. Certain
European countries will return to the
sender any mail bearing Red Cross
seals on the address side. Mail adj
dressed TO any of the belligerent
countries in Europe should not bear
Red Cross seals on the address side.
Red Cross seals may be used on the
face of checks, bills or legal docu-
ments and on any commercial paper.
The Christmas seals are not good for
postage They will not carry any
mail matter, but any kind of mail
matter will carry them.
