Why % You Worry

Why should anyone worry? To
worry shortens life. Like anger, It
reacts and poisons the system. The
federal health service has taken worry
so seriously that il has issued bull
letin warning the American people
against the danger of worrying and the
blessing that comes to those who are
active members of the glad-hand so
ciety.

FARM BOND PURCHASE
Senate Would Buy Farm Loan Sc
curities. but House Fails to Act.

Washington, Dec. 1S.-The admin
istratlon bill authorizing the secretary
o the treasury to purchase s1OO.-
OoO,OOO of farm loan bonds during
the next fiscal year was adopted nv
the senate today without a record
vote after it had been amended so as
10 eliminate a similar purchase nexr
year Immediately after the vote the
Dill was sent over to the house with a
view to action there before the holi-
day adjournment. After some discus
sion the house postponed considera-
ton until January 8.
CHAIRMAN Glass of the banking
committee, announced that the senate
mad adjourned and that inasmuch as
1t would be impossible to enact the
Dill into law until the holiday recess.
1t would be futile to attempt action
tonight, in view OF what he called
the lack of comprehension on the part
OF those opposing it.
Representatives Lenroot. Smell and
others opposed immediate considera-
ton on the ground that the measure
was too important to pass without
proper discussion. Mr. Smell contend
eo that he land banks were tending
towards insolvency and that it was a
pad precedent for the United States
to take bonds from corporation
that could not sell them.
The senate amendment to limit the
purchase of farm loan bonds bv the
secretary Of treasury to the present
fiscal year was introduced by Senator
Weeks who declared that the farm
loan board should stand warned that
congress will not continue to pro-
vide money in emergencies like the
present. Another amendment intro
duced by the Massachusetts, senator
and adopted, provides that until al
bonds bought by the secretary have
been redeemed, no loans from treas.
ury funds In addition to those al.
ready approved shall be made by the
farm loan banks except for the pur.
pose of increasing food products.

HOGS! HOGS. HOGS!

Three facts called TO the public at
tention by the Department OF Agri
culture deserve the widest publicit,
and the gravest attention.
First. the Department says that fol
the fiscal year ending June 80 it's rec
ords show decrease OF approximate.
~ half million i'm the number OF
hogs slaughtered i'm the United States
Second. the Department points out
that the decrease in pork production
for the f,scal yeer ending June so
1917, was evenfgreater than the de-
crease I'm the number OF hogs slaught-
cred would indicate; the hogs killed
I'm the fiscal year ending June 80,
1917. being lighter i'm weight than
those killed In the fiscal year ending
June 30. 1916.
Third. the Department. announces
that according TO the report OF its bu-
reau OF crop estimates the total mum.
ber OF stock hogs on the farms Of
the United States for September /.
1917. was s0.21s.000. as compared
with s5.s45.00o the year before, a de-
crease OF 5.427.o00.
IL thus appears that at n time when
the most vital national interests re-
auire maximum production Of pork
the number OF hogs Is actually on the
decline.
IL In a serious situation. and what
makes IL especially ugly is that there
In no excuse for II. Hogs offer the
quickest and surest means OF increas-
ing the nations meat supply. They
can be raised everywhere and in most
places at a fine profit. 1t is just as
important to raise them as IL is &c
build ships with which TO transport
our soldiers TO France and keep them
supplied.
OF course the country must look 20
the farmers II the hog population is
to grow as II should: but there are
thousands OF others who can help. In
every town In South Carolina 1t should
be the aim Of the householder in
1918 to raise at least one hog and IL
possible two. IL that Is done gener-
ally the results will be amazing
