FARMERS DOING WELL
Thousands Have Won Success In This
Country, as They Have In tho
British Isles.

English women are not the only one
who are hurrying into the farming
business, remarks a writer in the
Springfield (Mass.) Republican. Amer
lean women are turning in large mum.
bers every year to stock raising, bee
raising and farming Of all sorts. When
the national beekeepcrs' association
had it's last annual meeting in Phila-
delphia it was noticed that a large
number Of the members were women
and they took a pertinent part in the
discussions.
Western women are older hands at
the business. The Missouri Woman
tells us there are 5000 woman farm
ers In that state, and they are women
who farm intelligently, scientifically
and successfully. They study the bull
letins sent out by the state board Of
agriculture, they compete at the state
and country fairs-often they have
been quick to realize that cooperation
between city and country is of utmost
Importance to both.
The 5000 wOman farmers of Mis-
souri, make good profits in time of
peace. In time of war they could, very
likely, feed the entire state If all the
men farmers should be drafted into
military service. OF one example of
efficient "farm management" we read
that she has been making money annu-
ally on 200 acres in wheat and extern
sive stock raising another "raises hogs
under glass"-that is to say, she at
tracted wide attention a few years ago,
during a blizzard winter, when other
farmers were losing live stock by
freezing, through resourcefully con-
verting her greenhouses into shelter.
Another Missouri woman farmer is
widely recognized as an expert in fine
hogs. Her Berkshires have taken prizes
wherever shown and her corn exhibit
ed at San Francisco carried of the ex-
position gold medal.

COMMUNICATION.

EulCOr COurant: Will you please
give room in your favored paper for
a few lines from a young socialist.
Socialism is not so easy to scribble
up as it cannot be recopied from Jer-
ry Bacon's Herald and still worse,
Falky has given Geo. White the
mumps. So I see no other way than
to muster up my own brains and go
to it myself.
It seems that the News mar is US
ing every nook and corner in his
standpat paper to mislead the people
about socialism. He blunders into
socialism as a government mule would
into bookkeeping. Come Falky. and
let US see what socialism really is.
The Christian Herald of New York,
the leading Protestant church paper
of America, says that in the Protes-
tant church convention the Bishops
were in favor Of socialism, and proved
that Jesus was a socialist and that
socialism stands for justice to labor,
universal helpfulness, the dangers of
Capital wealth, the rights of the poor,
mans duty toward God and man, etc.
The Bishops said that these are among
the most vital topics of our day and
that they will receive full support
from the Protestant churches this
year of 1917. Falky, how do you
stand as a Christian gentleman? This
puts you right in the socialist trap,
and how are you going to get out OF
it? When Christ is a socialist, the
Bible is socialist and the Protestant
church is socialist. Falky how are
you going to get away from this?
How are you going to blindfold, bluff
and bulldoze the public, telling them
the horrors of socialism? How are
you going to outline the socialist gang
that is working so hard for the farm
ers and common people. The great
God of Mammon cannot buy the
Christian Herald to fight their graft.
Wonder if Falky has got that paper?
If you have it you must have seen
the red typed letters. The great need
in our time is real religion (church
and socialism.) Can you beat it?
The Christian Herald in its issue
of Feb. ID states. allow any man
can justify war and continue to be a
Christian is beyond their COM
prehension . We cannot find a sin
gle line in Christ's teachings that can
be constructed in favor of war under
any conditions whatsoever. Falky,
some time ago you quoted in your
paper that you favored the Bull Moose
law. That would bring military prac-
tice into the public schools. Wouldn't
it be ~goosehesh down the spine to have
a cold blooded war instructor in the
schoolroom, teachings innocent little
boys how to rip each others vitals
out?
Falky, you are more than a peach.
| When the Bible says war is an evil in
itself and comes from the evil pas
sions of men(see James 4-1-2) how
can a civilized and Christian gentle
man do such an evil as to cast his
vote for the republican or any other
war party?
Falky wants all good farmers to
raise and milk COWS. Wonder what
he wants all that milk for? But Fal-
ky, don't you know that practically
every hide, horn, and tail hoof and
name wool and bristle feathers and
furs belong to Boss Townley and his
sucker club? This alone must be suf-
fcient to throw Jerry and his whole
bacon into a standpat dog fit.

Russian ENTERPRISE.

The enterprise of the Russian peas
ants is continually giving evidence of
the nations readiness for progress
The phenomenal success Of the con
sumers' leagues has enabled the es.
tablishment Of numerous factories
and distributing centers on capital
owned by the peasants themselves.
The mistaken impression of the mujik
as q moneyless dweller on the soil is
brought into sharp contrast by the
realization that the Russian peasant
Is 10Y thriftily investing his savings
In Industrial enterprises. Thus, the
credit society Of Sapojok, government
Of Riazan, has just bought a factory
for the purpose of manufacturing
agricultural machinery for $4,000
rubles. Members of the society alone

Editorial from Fountain Head News, Davenport, ~
The Medical World, 1920 Chestnut St., Phila-
delphia, Pa, is so ethical they refuse to accept Chiro-
practic money on subscriptions for their journal. It
is the most ethical of the most ethical.
For, some unaccountable reason, something
good slips into it's pages occasionally. Note this ar
tice which appeared in January, 1917, number.
AS you read this, recall the physicians who are
appearing before Legislative Committees and are tel
ling that Chiropractic is a fake; nothing to it; the
theory is all buncombe; solicitations don't exist; the
chiropractor is a fakir of the first water, etc., etc.
Read those same Committees the same article
and then let's see who is lying, who knows or who
don't.
Treatment of Hemorrhoids by Pressure.
Dear DR.. Taylor:-1n reference to query of DR..
Huestis, December World, page 464, for an office
treatment for hemOrrhOids that will cure, I would
like to suggest the following, which I have used sue
c~essfully on my patients, and also have had demon
strated on my own person.
If the doctor will carefully palpate the lumbar
spine, he will find the fourth lumbar, possibly the
fifth, pushed backward, and more readily palpated
than the others. This exerts a pressure upon the
nerves supplying the parts around the rectum, thus
hemorrhoid condition. -- ~~~~t 1
The successful treatment consists Of replacing
the %vertrebra in it's proper position, thus freeing the
nerve from pressure, and allowing the full amount

the condition will follow. This is an elimination of
the cause of the condition and the patient not only
becomes we'll quicker than by other methods, but re-
currence is less likely.
However, replacement of the vertebra is not
easy until one has mastered the technic. ,.~,
Technic
First, secure relaxation Of patient by placing
him face downward, on two benches or chairs
(cushioned) which are separated, so the shoulders
and chest rest upon one, and the thighs upon the
other. Then with the edge of one hand firmly but
lightly upon the vertebra to be moved the other
hand grasping the wrist of the one upon the ver-
zebra, make a sudden forcible movement, and as
quickly release; this will snap the bone into place.
This should be repeated every two or three days,
and if the bone moves each time you will be aston
ished at the result.
The sooner we medical men recognize the i'm
~portance of the spine, and spinal nerves, and the ef-
feet of pressure upon these nerves, the sooner will
our patients be relieved of conditions which now
resist our treatment. Lawrence Simcox, M. D.

ANOTHER PEST
CORN LOUISE DESTROYING CORN
FIELDS IN SOUTH DAKOTA.

Hudson, July 18.-Reports from
the Hudson territory tell of a para
site which is playing havoc with
some Of the growing corn.
II is a corn louise, a parasite which
so far as known has seldom appear
ed in South Dakota. Thomas Jones
was the first to notice the presence
of the pests. He noticed that the
stalks in one of his corn fields, while
growing tall. looked very s%pindling,
and he investigated.
He discovered that the big center
root was missing, and that this weak
ened the stalk so that any little wind
would blow it down. On the Dick
Thinner farm there are spots in the
corn fields where the cOrn louise has
been at work, and some OF the corn
is dying from the rayages Of the pest.
The damage is being done to corn
raised on fall blowing. this being nm
usual in the operations of corn lice
Most Of the corn in the Hudson terri
tory is as yet unaffected and i. in
fine condition, with every promise of
a bumper crop.

IN ACTIVE SERVICE
PERSHING'S MEN BEGIN GRIND
IN CAMP NEAR LINE.

American Training Camp, Some
where in France. July 1S.-The
American general arrived Sunday
night and yesterday began supervis-
ing the initial work of his troops who
now are nearly all here. At noon
yesterday the general commanding
the French troops who will train
with the American troops and give
them the benefit of their long and
varied experience. also reached the
camp.
The scene was impressive. the
more so because of its staging in a
quaint little village which turned out
to the last child to stare with wonder
at the newcomers whom they hail as
saviors.
The army is fast getting down to
real work and the countryside Is
swarming over with squads bound to
or from training places or with sup
ply columns. To the best of their
ability the people of the entire neigh
borhood welcomed the newcomers
with great enthusiasm and the Amer
leans only have language difficulties
in fraternizing with their hosts. The
troops almost without exception have
been billeted about the countryside
and are fast getting accustomed to
the French ways of living. Beautiful
weather has assisted materially in
the speedy encampment of the troops.
The American general yesterday
paid a visit to all the positions occu-
pied by his men.
