Wholesale Agricultural Education.

The department of agriculture
plans to have a deputy secretary of
agriculture in every agricultural
county in the United States even
tually. The new agricultural extern
sion act has made possible a long
step forward in this direction.
1t is by this means only that the
entire farming population of the coun-
try will get personal demonstration
of how to increase the profits of
farming by the application of scien-
tific methods. The deputy secretary
of agriculture, in each case, will be
known as the county agent" Nearly
s2,5OO,OOO is being spent by the de-
partment of agriculture during this
fiscal year to assist in paying the
salaries of the present force of coun-
ty agents.
Does this pay? Is it a good in
vestment?
The answer is found in many coun-
ties where agricultural methods are
far advanced. Thus in DeKalb coun-
ty, Ill.,, the annual bill for the main
tenance of a county agent, an assist
ant, rent of quarters, labor, seed,
emonstration work, etc, is $4,000.
OF this sum the department OF agri-
culture provides $1,000, the state of
Illinois 1920 and DeRaib county 81
60'. Would public sentiment in De
Kalb county uphold the expenditure
OF this sum OF money il Il didn't pay
and pay big!

it quickly ferments and generates

RESTRICT SIDE ARMS
Legation Guards at Pekin Can't Carry
Arms While Of Duty.

Peking, Jan. 6.-Officers command.
ing the various legation guards have
agreed to prohibit their men from
wearing side arms when on liberty
This agreement is very gratifying TO
the Chinese officials, who have ex.
pressed some apprehension as to
what would happen if members Of
the various belligerent guards clash
ed and were able to use firearms.
On several occasions small groups
of soldiers from the legation guards
of warning countries had engaged in
street fights. They have also had
skirmishes in moving picture shows
and other places of amusement.
The encounters between soldiers of
the belligerents have given rise to a
movement on the part of the Chinese
to have all the legation guards re-
moved This. however, has never
been seriously considered by the coun-
tries having compounds in the lega-
tion quarter.

WORLDWIDE FIELD
FOR AMERICAN BANKS

Far-seeing fnanciers think the time
is coming when American banks will
flourish in all parts of the world.
The federal reserve act makes this
possible.
Branch banks of large American
institutions have already been estab-
lished in the largest cities of South
America. There is no reason why
during the next ten years." said Will
liam G. Malburn, first assistant sec
retary of the treasury, recently, I'VE
should not have banks also in Hong
Kong, in Yokohama, in Calcutta
even in Paris, Berlin and London"
Heretofore our importers and ex-
porters have been required to do their
foreign business through English,
French or German banks. Now, un-
der the terms of the reserve act, our
banks make drafts or bills of ex-
change based on the purchase or
sale of goods imported and exported.
This will enable us in time to finance
all our foreign trade.

DISGUISED AS CHINESE
Three German Prisoners Arrested on
Trans-S iberian Train.

Harbin, Jan. 6.-Three German prls-
oners disguised as Chinese We're ar
rested on a Trans-Siberian train at
Tsitsikar, two hundred miles west of
Harbin.
The conductor saw one of the men
looking out of a window in the cor
ridor of one of the coaches, while
the train was crossing a large bridge
over Nonna river. When questioned
the man, in Chinese garb, refused to
talk. The conductor pulled off the
passengers cap and queue and dis
covered that the man had brown
hair and stained his skin the color of
a Chinese.
A search through the train resulted
in the discovery of three other pas
sengers similarly disguised. All of
the men were detained at Tsitsikar.
A heavy guard mas been placed over
all the bridges on the TransSiberian
line. So many attempts have been
made upon bridges since the begin
ming of the war that special squads
now board all trains and examine the
passengers before a train is permit
ted to cross a bridge.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarr-
hal deafness, and that is by a constitu-
tional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result. Unless the inflam-
nation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Many
cases of deafness are caused by ca
tarrh, which is an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Cure acts through the blood on the mu-
cous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness

tarrh Cure. Circulars free. All Drug

fuenza. What counts most is preven-
tion of the scattering of the infection
among well persons. In other words,
prevention is a most excellent rem
edy for influenza, as it is for other
preventable diseases.
1t is imperative, therefore, for each
person in every community to use a
handkerchief or cloth when coughing
or sneezing during an influenza epi-
demic, and to wholly disinfect such
cloths. Burning is the best and safest
way. Indiscriminate coughing and
sneezing, even in the streets, and
especially in street cars, offices and
stores, as well as in homes, always
results in an indiscriminate scatter
ing of influenza. In New York City,
the public is confronted at this time
with placards against coughing or
sneezing without the use of a hand
kerchief, but by such admonitions as
these:
Keep the windows of your bedroom
wide open, day and night, even in the
middle of winter You can't overdose
yourself with fresh air, and the dis
ease germs can't endure it."
Walk mile in the open air twice
a day. 1t will add ten years to your
life If you don't believe it, try it
and see"
Influenza and most other germ dis
eases are unable to withstand the
practice of this kind of service.
Influenza bears the evil reputation
of a pandemic as well as an epidemic
disease, the former meaning that it
spreads over entire countries as well
as small communities. 1t is said not
to have been distinguished as a spec
ial disease until the sixteenth century
1t then lay dormant for several hun
dred years, only to emerge in four
serious pandemics in the nineteenth
century. Most persons remember the

There are four manifestations of

Another form attacks the nerve
centers, producing severe shooting
pains in the head and back, with a
cramped feeling in the joints. These
should receive immediate
attention, as their neglect may re-
suit in certain forms of nervous dis
eases, the sufferer forgetting their
possible origin, and not knowing how
1r why his health has become i'm
paired.
