AUGUSTUS LYON, Terre Hill, Pa
1t is true that nature and woman's
work mas produced the grandest remedy
for woman's ills that the world has
ever known. From the roots and
herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womankind
a remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever COM
pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is recognized
from coast to coast as the standard
remedy for woman's ills.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds of
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health-many of them openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound;
and in some cases that it has saved them
from surgical operations.

SMALL MOTOR FOR DENTISTS
Does Away With Rather Cumbersome
Material Which Must at Present
Be Used.

An electric motor, even in small
sizes, is quite heavy for the power 1t
yields. For this reason dentists have
been using a motor mounted on
bracket and connected by a flexible
shaft with the point of application OF
power. Recently, however, minia-
ture electric motor has been devised
for the dentists use which is so small
and weighs so little that it may be
connected directly to the dental
chucks and used as hand tool, thus
doing away with the cumbersome uni
versal shaft. In place Of the shaft
light electric cord connects the motor
with a lamp socket. The motor Is
one of the smallest ever made for
commercial use. Its weight is but five
and one-quarter ounces. and it is one
and three-quarter inches long by one
and one-Quarter inches In diameter.
1t uses only IL watts and operates
at a speed of $4,000 revolutions per
minute.

three of them home the other night.
They were alive and he planned to
boil them in the morning as usual. He
placed them on top of the refrigerator
in the back hall. That was a good
chance for them to spend the night.
1t was along toward midnight that
the son came home. The rest or the

Old Manx Hospitality.

The Isle Of Man government, which
is concerned at the financial loss
caused by the requisition Of passen-
ger steamers for military purposes,
used at one time to legislate against
visitors from the mainland. One Of
the very earliest laws on the Manx
statute book enjoined all Scots to
avoid the land with the next vessel
that goeth into Scotland, upon pain
of forfeiture of their goods and bodies
to prison" Another enacted that
Irish women loytering and not work
ing be commanded forth of this isle
with as much speed as may be-" The
aforementioned law was the result Of a
series of raids on the Manx coast by
Galloway rover called MacCulloch.

LESS SPECULATIVE FARMING
Too Many Farms Heavily Loaded With
Mortgages-Farmer Must Pay
More Attention to Stock.

There are too many farms heavily
loaded with mortgages. There are
too many unpaid fertilizer bills. Too
much time and capital is invested in
uncertainties, and too much risk taken
with single crops. The very source
of good income on the farm-the poul-
try-is neglected.
The time has come IL the farmer
wants to get OUT of debt to pay more
attention to stoc.; raising, and no
stock offers better returns than the
growing of chickens and eggs for mar
ket. They are mortgage lifters.
True we must have farmers and
dairymen and all that, but there
should be less speculative farming and
more poultry raising.

ON BUSINESS BASIS
Nine Basic Principles q Which Co
Operation Must Stand Wide Pub
licity ls EssenHaI.

During the farmers wek at Mos
COW, Idaho, Mr.. H. c. Simpson emu
merated nine basic principles upon
which cooperation must aand. These
are:
/. The producer shall st the price
at which the article shall Ne sold.
2. The product shall be sDld by SAL
aried representatives of tie producer.
3. The producers shall fiAnce them
selves by using the bond gstem and
getting a lower rate of interest.
4. Business must be conducted on
a big business basis.
5. The producer must getwide pub
licity and information and should
know the whole business.
6. The basic principle of standard
ization is virtually important in all
kinds Of agricultural produce.
Z. The farmers co-operative associ-
atoms should have harmonious and in.
telligent cooperation with the United
States government department of
markets.
s. Each line of business should CO.
operate among themselves and have
separate wheat growers associations.
dairymen's associations, apple associ-
atoms.
9. The business should be always
governed and owned by producers.
The most outstanding weaknesses of
cooperative associations are weak
financing and producers not choos-
ing the right man to represent
them. In conclusion, Mr.. Sampson
tated that the Northwest has never
sold fruit; they have simply accepted
orders and have never had a construc
tive selling campaign. 1t is Of the
greatest importance that the consumer
be considered and the price lowered
for him. 1t is only when the consu
mers are organized in some way such
consumers league that the cooper
alive associations can sell directly tc
consumers.

NEEDS OF FARM COMMUNITY
Matter Has Not Yet Been Considered
in Many Places, Because Of the
Lack of Proper Leaders.

The needs of each farming commu-
nifty and how they may be supplied is
a matter that has not been considered
in very many places, because of lack
of leadership. Someone who has the
training and who can give his entire
time to the work of assisting in the
development of a better agricultural
and country life. is needed in every
county.
1t has been suggested by some that
every graduate of state agricultural
college should consider himself re-
sponsible for the social and agricul-
tural conditions of his neighborhood
and should work for its upbuilding.
