This bulldog wheel is all t at it's name implies.
1t is one of the foundations on which the Ltchfeld
Spreader line firmly stands.
This beater wheel is entirely unlike the ones used
on all other machines in the world The manufact-
urers claim THIS ONE PATENTED FEATURE
to be worth more to any spreader than all the best
features combined which are controlled by all 9th
er competing machines
This is the only heater wheel used on manure
spreaders that CANNOT BE CLOGGED by any
kind of material that is ordinarily used in a
spreader. The principle is unique and different
fronlanything else 1t operates on the plan of one
set of teeth working ahead of another set. What
one set of teeth fail to get, the other set takes
good care Of Come in and see it. and we will ex-
plain all the details.
It does the same work that TWO beaten wheels
would do if it were possible for two wheels to OPP
crate on the SAME SHAFT and in the SAME
SPACE, one working an inch and half deeper
in the load all the time than the other. Owing TO
its peculiar construction it takes care of the mat
eral as it comes from the box, tears it into pieces
and distributes it with uniformity and WITHOUT
PACKING OR CLOGGING.
The whole secret is the peculiar makeup OF the
diamond pointed LONG and SHORI teeth winch
are so arranged that no material gets by then'
and drags on the bars that hold the teeth. ms
heater wheel is light running flexible and all steel.

If you want to know who's to blame for the way
you are being robbed by the food hogs watch the
senators who are delaying the passage of the
food control bill.
If your senator is holding back that bill, as
Jones is doing in a negative way, he is pulling
the wool over your eyes and putting your money
into the pockets of food hoarders and specula
tors.
1t wasn't necessary to inject the prohibition is
sue into the matter of food control. But it did
give senatorial friends of the food hogs pausi-
BILE excuse for helping those food hogs keep on
robbing you.
If you happen to favor prohibition, and most of
us in this state do probably it pleased you to read
how your senator was swatting the demon rum.
But probably you didn't stop to thing that the
longer senators discuss prohibition in connection
with the food control bill, the longer you will
keep on paying outrageous tribute to the food
hogs.
Do you want your grocers and butchers bill
cut down to figure where you can make both
ends meet?
President Wilson wants to cut down the cost of
your living. Hoover wants to do the same. They
want to help you. They want to help the Ameri-
can family everywhere cut down the cost of liv-
ing.
But congress won't let them The senate won't
give the president the power he needs. Every
days delay in giving the president that power
makes it more difficult for him or Hoover to get
results. Every days delay takes money out Of
your pocket and puts it into the pockets of the
food hogs. The crops are ripenng
It's time the American people were getting
after the senatorial tools of the food hogs with
hot poker. Demand immediate action! Order
your senator, by wire, to drop the food hog game
and give the president power to cut down the
cost of living quick.

al am one of those
persons who takes life and
people seriously. l am %
now. During companion
ship of some years ago in

young man very dearly. but
sentiment grew too intensi-
fled and | fear l lost his re-
spect, for he has dropped
me.
Miss Grey, tho I have
tried to forget him by going
with others and different
crowds there is the same
longing for the one ! love.
We are often thrown togeth-
or and are always congenial
and friendly. l become very
melancholy at times and am
SO miserable. l crave ex-
element In order to forget
myself, playing with fire, so
1t is. It's cheap love, I
know; but as yet l have not
sinned.
Would you advise me to go
away from the place to for
get him, or must l stay near
him and suffer? B. H.
A.-Al thru your letter are
the symptoms of a life that is not
full enough of the real essence of
living. 1t would be silly, yes,
to leave. We never
overcome our difficulties by rum
ming away from them.
Even tho the young man may
be fond of you, he viii not come
back to a woman who mopes and
has to seek other petty amors to
pass the time away.
If you are a girl of means, seek
out some poor people who need
your help. Ii you must work for
your living--then work with all
that is in you. There Is only one
way you can forget yourself
as YOU say You wish to-and that
is by examining your life SO full
of the big things-the sacrifices
and work-tiaat you have no time
in which to remember yourself.
