sMOTHERlNG SELF-RELIANCE

The man who is looking for the co
operation Of some one else to help him
make a living, is going to be disap
pointed.
All commerce, practically all human
activity when reduced to its last ana
lysis, is selfishness. You may be
startled at that expression, but take il
and look at it from any standpoint
you will, and the truth of it will grow
larger. There is very little unselfish'
ness in all the world. Much selfishness
abound everywhere and in every line
of endeavor.
The farmers who are asking the rail
roads to use their brains and their
money to help them solve their prob
lens, are going to be disappointed
The farmer wants to get for his prod
ucts what the city man pays for
them when they go to his table, al
lowing of course expense of hauling
and handling. The farmer can dc
that in but one way and that will be
by organizing a supply company and
operate through it to the consumer,
and that is so far from being practical
that it will be long after this genera.
tion is gone that it will be established
so the man who wastes his time and
energy in working for 1t, is only In
juring himself.

To Make Skin Clear

Don't worry about skin troubles. You
-an have a clear. clean complexion by
using a little zemo, obtained at any drug
store for DC, or extra large bottle at
SlOO.
Zemo easily removes all traces of pim-
nles, black heads. eczema, and ringworm
and makes the skin clear and healthy.
Zemo is neither watery, sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. Ii is easily
applied and costs a mere trite for each
application. 1t is always dependable

railroad man is not going to help the
! farmer root out the middle man. The
wholesaler and the retailer are neces'
sarv under our plan of commerce. Both
of them control much railway traffic,
and the farmer cannot expect the rail
road to drive that business away from
it in order to help him.
There is a farmer at Arbuckle
Switch near Dougherty who raises
products by the car load He accom-.
panies his shipments to the market
and makes his sales direct to the re-
tailers in a dozen towns in Canada
That farmer realizes a profit out of his
stuff. he cuts out the wholesaler and
brings potatoes cheaper to the homes
of Canadians. He is by example doing
more than all the agitatoes in the
state. He is by actual demonstration
showing what can be done, He pays the
railway company and asks no favors.
He is on the ground when his prod
ucts are delivered and the commits
sion man cannot tell him his products
were spoiled when they arrived and
charge him for carting them out OF
town, as has often been done.
The farmer complains that when
wheat passes from him, that it goes
higher, and wants a community ele-
yatOr The farmer who depends
strictly upon himself will build his
steel wheat bins, store his products on
his own farm, use his own judgment
about selling, learn to do business by
actually doing it, and teach his sons to
be Independent in their methods OF
their own business.
If all the middlemen were cut out,
products would come lower possibly to
the consumer and might be worth
little more to the producer. But the
men engaged in handling products
would enter the same business call
ings of these men who are making the
small saving and their business profits
would be less.
Men will be a whole lot more con.
tented when they learn that we have
a business system that came naturally, |
that it is pretty well fitted to men in
all walks of life that it is the natural
system because it came naturally, |
that reforms will come slowly, as the
demand develops, that no reformer
is going to turn the thought of the
world in a day, that the best business
method in all the world is for each
fellow to look after himself without |
expecting some one to come along |
and hand something over to him.

NeaIeotInn Mr.. Wilson.

The Philadelphia Press thus sue
cinctly gives expression to the opin-
ion that all intelligent men hold with
regard to the seamen's law:
"The passage of the La Toilette bill
in the last house of the last session of
the last congress was supreme act of
folly.
Its impracticability and unwisdom
have been fully demonstrated.
'lt has already done much harm and
win do very much more if it is allowed
to stand.
THE first and immediate duty of
the congress shortly to assemble will
be the unconditional repeal of this i'm.
possible and hurtful statute"
Yet our friend the Press omits from
this otherwise admirable utterance
one important observation. 1t fails to
remind its readers that Woodrow Will
son played capital part in the enact
ment of this impossible and hurtful
statute" in spite of the warnings and
pleas OF competent advisers.
OF this fact the Press, we are conf
dent, is informed, and we have no
doubt it will dedicate portion of it's
unquestioned influence to induce Mr.
Wilson to assume at once the leader
ship of the movement for the repeal
of the noxious law.

HARVEST DEPENDS
ON SEED WE sow

What the harvest of 1916 viii be de-
ponds on no one thing as much as the
seed we SOW or plant Poor seed OF
low vitality means poor crops. Wis
consin farmers who do not take care
in selecting and curing their seed
corn this year are in danger of having
light harvest in 1916. The past sea
son has, undoubtedly, been unfavor-
able to produce the average amount Of
vigorous seed grown and it will be
well for all of US to save as much good
seed as we can and then see to 1t that
it is carefully cured and stored.
These simple directions. given by
r. A. Moore of the agricultural exper-
iment station, University of Wiscon-
sin, will aid In insuring and securing
a good stand next year:
A dry and well ventilated kitchen
attic is a good substitute for a curing
room.
While there are numerous devices
for hanging seed corn so that II will
dry out thoroughly. a .strong string
mayes a good and cheap hanger The
ears can be tied serarately. or the
strings may be crossed as indicated in
the accompanying cut. and so prevent
one ear from being in contact with an
other.
curing room should be provided
with good ventilation and fire should
be kept going until the corn is dry,
Frequent inspection will help to pre-
vent any of the seed from becoming
damaged in any way.
