Grandma Knew

Breaking up colds was one of the
easiest things that grandma did. With
only goose grease and turpentine she
got some wonderful results. And you
can't beat that remedy now
But you can make it work more
quickly. MEN-THO-EZE is made of
goose grease and turpentine with men,
thol, the great Chinese remedy, to-
gether with peppermint, wintergreen
and other healing oils added. Rubbed
on the chest, the goose grease and
turpentine work from the outside as
surely as they ever did. But the fumes
from the other oils, inhaled to the lin
ings of the throat and lungs, soothe
the raw surfaces and draw out the
soreness, giving relief in 20 minutes.
Colds caught at the start can nearly
always be broken up with MEN-THO-

accomplished and feel that the Farm
Bureau is filling a much needed ser
vice in the community.
| The committee on projects approved
the projects under way in 1918 ant
those which will continue for 1919
In addition other new projects such a!
manufacture of agricultural limestone
in the county to apply on sour soil wa!
highly recommended. Also the pro
iect dealing with drainage, farmers
exchange labor department and var.
ious other lines of work which they
deemed essential to the best agricul.
tural interests of the county.
This committee also recommended
that special attention be given the
members of the Farm Bureau and that
these members endeavor to utilize the
services of the Farm Bureau. 1t is
their belief that the greater service OF
the Farm Bureau is in cooperation
and that it is impossible for the County
Agent or anyone else to determine
what problems should be considered
in the communities If farmers do not
request this service on their. own
initiative.
The work of the Home Demonstra-
ton Agent was endorsed and it is hop
ed that both divisions of the Farm Blu
reau work will witness the progress
i've and successful year.
President F. E. Richardson respond
ed to the call for talk at which time
he referred to the State Federation of
Farm Bureaus which was recently or
ganized at Marshalltown. In his opin-
ion this is the one great step that the
Farm Bureaus have taken to unity
their efforts and concentrate their
power in order that they may obtain
redress.
At this meeting three main COM
mittees were misunderstanding, Leg
islative and Promotion of Farm Bu-
reau work These committees will be
made up of representatives from diff
ferent parts of the state and it is
through these men that the Farm Blu
reau efforts will be guided together
with the support from the directors
of each county. These directors must
be actual farmers and who are held
in high esteem in their community.
President Richardson remarked that
he had never met group Of men who
were more alert to the great prob
lens that are confronting the farmers,
and who are determined to do every
thing in their power to bring the Farm
organization to the front.
In addition to the various state Or
which are now being per-
fected plan is being purposed for a
National organization. There are al
ready 10000 members in Iowa and ov-
Or 100000 members in the United
States. It is to this unification for a
great ideal and purpose that we look
forward to and every farmer must
mite himself with this new movement
n order that he may secure the bene-
1t Of the organization.
Mr.. Richardson went on to show
where the packers had been making
Millions Of dollars by being able to
the supply and demand,
which information they have secured
rom money extracted from the farm
n and he further illustrated that in

spite of the fact that their advertising
throughout the country in newspapers
indicated that they were making only
a profit Of n of one cent, that the great
packers benefited by being able to
buy on small margin and holding in
their great cooling plants these pro-
ducts. which were later sold at large
margin.
AT the close of President Richard
sons address it was moved and sec
onded by the board of directors that
the Delaware County Farm Bureau
align itself with the State Federation
and contribute such funds as may be
necessary to secure proper represen-
tation.
