IMPLEMENTS TO REMAIN HIGH

The manufacturers, of farm imple- ments say that there will be no re- duction of prices this year. So farm CTS who have delayed purchasing in the hope of lower prices. might as we'll buy what they urgently need, and be reconciled. The after-war slump, which we have all been look ing for seems to be far in the future. if it ever comes. Perhaps we will have q permanently higher level of prices The dollar of our daddies at present is barely worth four-bits. The implement manufacturers are properly apologetic for their inability to lower prices. and explain the mat ter at length. Of course we grum- ble about it, but when we see the general trend of prices in other lines we can almost feel grateful to the makers of farm machinery for not marking their stun up again.-F'arm Life.

Financial Demaaoaues.

The country is about to be afflicted
with another set of financial demago-
CUES. They first appeared in the
form of Greenbackers, and later in
the form of Free Silverites. Both of
these groups started with the assump
ton that government can create prop
erty and value by fiat, or by issuing
paper notes or other forms of debt.
Now come the brotherhoods of rail-
way employees, headed by uen who
are evidently relics of the other two
groups, advocating the purchase of
the railroads of the country by the
people, payment therefore to be
made in the form of bonds, which are
nothing but evidences of debt
Bonds are good for nothing unless
money can be raised on them, and the
promoters OF the government rail
road scheme expect to float these
bonds and compel the capitalists
(who are the masses of the. hard
headed people, to accept the bonds
at par.
d othe brotherhoods thinks for one
moment that nissue of bonds creates
property that may be easily eXchang-
ed for railroads? If so the govern
ment or the people might print an
endless quantity of bonds and notes
and call them property and wealth.
The wild scheme of the railroad
brotherhoods simply means a large
addition to the debts of the taxpayers
without the slightest increase in the
nations assets until the bonds or the
debts represented by them are paid
Fiat money and fiat bonds mean
simply debts and liabilities, not as
sets. The people cannot get rich and
prosperous and cannot solve the prob
lem of high prices simply by increas-
ing their debts.-New York Herald.

Harvey Names Greene

George Harvey, who takes matters
of government seriously and who
speaks right out in meeting" when
he thinks matters are going wrong,
feels certain that the republicans in
the House of Representatives under
the leadership of Congressman Mon
dell are becoming disorganized %and
disintregated. unless Mr.. Mondell
changes his methods completely he
will invite disaster" Harvey says,
Harvey thinks it is high time for the
republicans to put an end to this
nonsense and his method of selec'
ton would be to have u new labor
leader selected. There is no deartb
of ability on the majority side he
says. "Men like Nichols Longworth
Frank Greene of Vermont and George
Graham of Pennsylvania, could whip
the organization together over night
They should be accorded the oppor
tunity" II is gratifying to the cleo
torate of the first Vermont congress
ional district to have their represen
tatiye singled out in this compli'
mentary way by one of the keenest
observers of national politics in the
country. Greene is helping to re
store Vermont to her former high
place in the council of the nation

Moral: Keep up Your Insurance.

The Bennington Banner says that
many returned soldiers and sailors
have dropped their government in
surance for no other reason than that
they thought its continuance gave
the government some claim upon
them Men who have been in the ser
vice for some time are inclined to be
a little skeptical about government
propositions. The continuance Of War
Risk Insurance, however. carried no
obligations with it. It is a straight
out and out proposition on terms that
one can little afford to reject. Wednes
day evening an opportunity will be
given to service men to learn just
what the government offers to its
young veterans and all men who have
dropped their insurance or have
ignored it up to this time should at
tend and see just what it is that
they are passing up.-Montpelier Ar

Because of the dangerous effects OF
denatured alcohol upon the human
system, whether it be taken as bev'
erage or used as an external applica
ton, the government through the In
ternal Revenue Bureau is beginning
to take steps to stop such use. La
bells containing a statement of the eff
fects of the alcohol upon the body
will be required to be upon every bot
tie sold. This method of educating
he public concerning the poisonous
qualities of the liquid is so simple
that it is wonder that it had not
been adopted long ago.

filled with play. Health and happi

The war breaks and the village is
attacked by the Germans. There is
a secret telephone in the cellar Of
the Peret home and information is
regularly sent thereby TO the French
