The Penalty for
a Good Reputation,

When an article has been on the
market for years and has given COM
plete satisfaction when used in
thousands of homes 1t creates for
itself valuable reputation. yet at
the same time this good reputation
has its penalty.
Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
enjoys a splendid reputation, for it
has been used for three generations.
Its fair name and high repute have
created demand for it, and to sup
ply this demand at q greater profit
limitations and substitutes are offered.
Purchasers who know the original
cannot be fooled by any '.just as
good" offering and it is worth the
effort of any one who wants a reliable
cough syrup to insist upon the orig
inal and genuine Foley's Honey and
Tar Compound, which has proven so
valuable for the relief of coughs,
colds, Group and whooping cough.

The Federal Farm Loan
Hearing.

Open Letter to =. Walker McKeen, in Re-
ply to His Letter Of Sept. 2.
B. Walker McKeen, Fryeburg, Maine.
DEAR SIR: II answer to your letter of
Sept. 2, | will say that am only too glad
to answer any fair question, and give my
reason for it.
First: You ask If am correctly quot
ed as saying at Augusta at the Federal
Farm Loan hearing, THAT the farmers
of Maine are now operating home farms
more than farming for business, except
in Arocstook County, and are not fully
ready for the benefits of the Rural Gre
dts Act"
The sense of the statement at least is
correct, and supposed everybody knew
that farming in New England had always
been basicly-a home building industry,
in the past to larger extent even than
it is today, and l believe that we are
particularly fitted for this kind OF an in
dustry. II is not the same IN the West, in
such States as Iowa, where one half the
farm 5rs are tenants, the owners living in
town and operating their farms purely
as business. The Western farmer bor-
rowing for business is free borrower,
mortgage on his home.
Second: Will the Maine Farmer use
this bank? | do not believe he will, for
the reason that if he has the security
that the Federal Bank requires, he can
get money Of a neighbor or at local
bank. and the cooperative features of
forming Farm Loan Associations will
not appeal to the Maine Farmer.
Rural Credit and Farm loans, sound
good, but when you study the provisions
of the act you will see that there is moth
ing in it for the Maine Farmer.
A farmer wishing to receive loan must
first form an association with at least
nine other farmers who together must
borrow not less than 500, 000., no one re-
ceiving less than 500, or more chan
$4,000 They must advance per cent
of this loan in stock. The loan is placed
the land, plus 20 per cent of the value of
the insured improvements. The loan
must be made for not less than years or
more than 40.
The interest must not exceed per cent
and is to be paid annually or semi annually
together with a part of the principal suf
ficient to cancel the debt at the close of
the period.
Third: AS to the prevailing rate of in
terest in Maine at the present on farm
mortgages.
This question does not allow any differ
ence of opinion as it can be readily ascer-
aimed. From the best information can
get about Is per cent Of the farm mort-I
ages of Maine are held by banks, which
are the mortgages that concern US. So
far as l have been able to ascertain there
is but one small bank in the State that
holds farm mortgage above 6 per cent.
Nor tgages, with such security as this act
pro vides, are being taken by individual
investors as low as per cent.
Fourth: AS to the attitude of the
Grange on this question.
The National Grange has stood for a
rural credit law mainly because of the
needs of the West and South, where in
terest rates were high and money not
easy to obtain.
The Legislative Committee of the Ma
tlonal Grange opposed the present act,
and it does not meet will. their approval.

SAYS HEALTH WORK
is STILL IN INFANCY
Survey Covering 219 Cities Of
Over $4,000 Prepared for
Sage Foundation.
WIDE RANGE IN THE COST

A comprehensive survey covering 21e
cities OF the United States having more
than $4,000 population has been made
Of the activities Of the health depart
ments by Frank Schneider, Jr. of the
| department OF surveys and exhibits of
the Russell Sage Foundation. His re-
port IL now being circulated by the
Foundation.
Mr.. Schneider's conclusion Is that pub
lie health work is still In Its infancy,
In some cities more than in others. He
suggests minimum expenditure per
capita by the health departments. This
should range from 80 cents to 81. ac-
cording TO the size OF the cities. He has
found that some cities spend "a high as
sS cents per capita and others are con-
tent with four cents
One-ffth of the 2l9 cities make no in
spection OF school children. he found ;
one-third did not offer the ordinary
laboratory diagnosis for the commoner
communicable diseases (: fourth made
no effort to educate in health matters ;
nearly three -fourths had no housing
law; rineteen-twentieths had no con-
Germ with the hygiene on industry: one
half had no proper organization to com
bat Infant mortality. and more than
three quarters had no coherent pro-
gramme against tuberculosis.
Mr. Schneider lays emphasis on the
fact that his survey made no attempt to
consider the efficiency of the work at
tempted. but only whether or not II was
attempted
when We reflect on the partial thor
oughness with which their slender staffs
compel them to perform their work"
the report says, the conclusion becomes
inevitable that public health work in
this country is still In Its infancy--cer-
tainly as far as application OF estab-
lished scientific methods is concerned.
Another striking result OF the inves-
tiGation Is the variation In activity ex-
hibited by health departments In dif-
ferent sections of the country. The
Southern and Pacific cities clearly out
rank the others and the north central
and mountain cities are markedly in
ferior
''One other point should receive all
possible emphas!s--the relation between
these examples OF municipal neglcc, and
the scanty health department appropria-
tions. What can we expect of de-
partment In a city Of 25, 600 whose total
appropriation IL but $500: And II the
New York city department uses bs cents
for each iuhabtant each year and has
TO practise great care 10 make Il 60
round what can our average city do on
only % cents? Again. do any real dif-
ferences in local conditions require that
Seattle spend 9s cents an iuhabitant
each year while Woonsocket may rest
content with four cents"
