OBITUARY

Died, on last Tuesday evening little
Guy, the infant son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Nose Lester. HIS suffering was great.
but he bore it patiently. He was too
pure for earth and has gone to live In
heaven. He had sweet communion
with Jesus and met loved ones who
were waiting to welcome him home to
rest in the kingdom of God who will
in his own time call his children to
meet in that land where death never
comes.
In the death of little Guy the fam
lily has lost one Of its brightest jewels.
He was called so unexpectedly. They
have our prayers and sympathy. The
funeral discourse was delivered by
Rev. Jake Pickett after which his body
was laid to rest in the Christian grave
yard. AN AUNT

Weekly Health Talks
What Doctor Pierce Has
Done For HUMANITY
nv nocTop CRIpps
BY DOCTOR GRIPS.

1t has always seemed to me tnat
DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y, should be
placed near the top when q list OF
Americas great benefactors is written.
He studied and conquered human DIS
eases to q degree that few realize.
Whenever he found remedy that over
came disease, he at once announced 1t
in the newspapers and told where 1t
could be bought at small price. de
did not follow the usual custom OF
keeping the ingredients secret, SO that
the rich only could afford to buy the
medicine, but openly printed the name
of each root and herb no used. And
so to-day the names of Dr. Pierce and
his medicines are widely known, and
they stand for better health and better
citizenship.
One OF this great physicians most
successful remedies ia known as Doctor
Perce's Pleasant Pellets. These are
little, sugar-coated pills, composed OF
Mayapple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap-
things that Nature grows in the ground.
These Pellets are safe because they
move the bowels gently, leaving no bad
after effects, Us so many pills do.
Very often they make a person who
takes them feel like new man or
woman, for they cleanse the intestines
of hard, decayed and poisonous matter
that accumulates when one is costive.
| If you are constipated, by all means
go to your druggist and get some OF
DR.. Pisrce's Pleasant Pellets. They
may prove to be the very thing your
system requires to make you well and
happy.

BERGER is DENIED HIS
SEAT AT WASHINGTON

Victor l.. Berger, Milwaukee So
cialist, was denied his seat in the
house of representatives at Wash
ington Monday by an overwhelming
vote, the house holding he was incl
igible for membership because of his
open opposition to the war.
The vote to unseat Berger was
800 toll. Representative Weight, re-
publican, of Wisconsin, being the
only member to support the Wiscon-
sin socialist either during the debate
or on the roll call.
After denying the seat to Berger,
the house declared the seat was va
cant, holding that Joseph p. Car
ney, democrat, who contested Ber-
gers election, did not receive a plur-
ality in the election last year. With
out a record vote the house also di-
rected Speaker Gillett to notify the
Wisconsin governor of the vacancy
in the state delegation so that spe-
a new member
Berger appeared in the house soon
after the session opened. Repre-
sentative Dallinger, republican, Mas
sachusetts, chairman of the special
committee which investigated the
case, said the only issue involved
was that of Americanism.
"It is whether a man, who, in
1911, took oath to support the con-
stitution and who, when this coun-
try declared war against the imperi-
al government of Germany, became
the head and front of an organized
conspiracy to hinder, obstruct and
embarass this government in its
fight for existence, should be adj
mitted to membership in this
house." said Dallinger.
1.-THE committee is convinced up
on all the facts and upon all the
presidents in this house that Victor
L. Berger should be excluded from
membership.
"In the opinion OF the committee,
the house expects It.; the men who
fought for their country expect 1t,
and the entire country expects 1t.
Soon after Berger began a state
ment to the house. There was
much commotion and Speaker Gil
lett raped for order several times.

no matter with what pardonable
pride and satisfaction the proprietor
may view his agricultural enterprise.
But IL the garden or chicken yard
expands until 1t covers not less than
three acres of ground, or until IL
requires for it's care the continuous
services of at least one person, or
yields products annually to the val
ne of $3.50 or more, 1t comes within
the census definition of a farm and
will be recognized as such and
counted.
tains many questions regarding
farm values, expenses and live stock
as well as the acreage and quantity
of tine crops raised in the year 1919.
Census bureau officials are urging
farmers everywhere to prepare for
the census enumerators by looking
ever their books and records so that
accurate answers may be furnished
to Questions.
In this connection the bureau Of
the census emphasizes the fact that
the information furnished to census
takers is absolutely confidential,
made so by the act of congress, and
that under no circumstances can any
such information be used as a basis
for taxation.
Cooperation between farmers
and the census officials next January
is more necessary and vital than ev-
er before" declared Director Of the
Census Sam l.. Rogers. 1.-THE world
war and the part that the farmer
played in IL will continue to play in
the rehabilitation of Europe and
serve to make the agriculture section
of the fourteenth decennial census
the most important in the nations
history. Absolute accuracy and
completeness in the census returns
is the goal toward which every cit
izen should strive"

CENSUS Authorities TELL
WHAT CONSTITUTES A FARM
Nhat is a farm !?

"Hdl 10 d
Seems a foolish question to ask,
doesn't it? Almost anyone can tell
off-hand just what a farm is and
knows one when he sees it.
But do you happen to know the in
depreciation Uncle Sam places on the
word farm for census purposes? ?"
No! Then read how the bureau of
the census defines the word:
"A farm for census purposes is all
the land which is directly farmed by
one person conducting agricultural
operations, either by his own labor or
with the assistance of members of
his household or hired employees
In further explanation of this def
milton the census bureau points out
that the term agricultural opera
tons is used as a general term re-
ferring to the work of growing
crops, producing other agricultural
products and raising domestic ami
mails, poultry or bees.
From this definition it will be seen
that a farm may consist of single
tract of land or of a number of sep
arate and distinct tracts. And these
several tracts may be held under diff
ferent tenures, as, for instance, when
one tract is owned by the farmer
and another is rented by him. Thus
IL man who owns 100 acres rents
an additional ten acres from some
one else and operates both the 100
acres and the ten acres, then his
farm" includes both tracts of land
comprising ITO acres.
BY some token when landown-
err has one or more tenants, renters,
troopers, or managers each differ
ent tract of land operated by any
such tenant, renter, cropper or man.
ager is considered separte and dis
tinct farm by the census bureau. Or,
to give an example, IL a man owning
120 acres of land rents 40 acres to
a tenant and farms the remaining 80
acres himself, his farm is the 80
acres which he operates, not the
100 acres which he owns, while the
40 acre tract which he rents to a
tenant comprises a separate farm to
be reported in the name of the ten
ant.
Another question to be determin-
ed is how important does an agricul-
tural enterprise have to be in order
to secure recognition In the census
as a farm? A small vegetable garden
or chicken yard accommodating a
few busy hens will not be allowed to
qualify as a farm" in the census,

THE POINT OF VIEW

II one could only keep from
laughing
He'd probably become very angry
At the snug, self-satisfed people
OF his home village
And their little, cheap preten-
sions,
But every time sensible man
Begins to ge tworked us
over their asinine placidity
One of them betrays his true nat
ure
BY braying
And causes the man of sense
To blow up
In a gale of laughter.

time"
Speaker Gillett said he had been
unable to understand Berger be
cause of his strong foreign accent"
Berger did not deny making the
alleged seditious statements which
led to his conviction and sentence to
twenty years in federal prison.

he said, 81 would say and write
them all over again, only / would

Berger characterized the espion-

plutocracy, not to punish spies, but
to hound citizens whose opinions diff
fered from those of the administra-
ton"
