merce says:
eve can unhesitatingly recommend
the Wisconsin Tuberculosis Asso-
citation as an organization worthy of
every possible practical and moral sup
port you may be able to give it. It
was organized to arouse the public and
prove tuberculosis could be cured and
prevented, that people need not die in
such great numbers and suffer as hope

tional work which it has DONE"
The death rate in Wisconsin from
tuberculosis was 1918 per 100, 900 pop
ulation 1909; in 1919 82.5. This means
a saving of 5000 lives, and that Wis
consin has the fifth lowest death rate
from tuberculosis in the entire regis
tered area of the u. S. The work of
the society consists largely in educa-
tional efforts to prevent the spread of
the disease; the money is not spent to
take care of patients in hospitals and
other institutions. The funds are need
ed to continue a vigorous campaign of
education in order to keep the people
of the state safe from the menace of
tuberculosis, rather than to cure those

WEALTH and money are by many who
talk loosely, and think even more loose
ly, accepted as synonymous terms
Money is considered to be wealth,
wealth to be money. One does not
need to be scholar to know that
money and wealth in reality have no
closer relation Sto each other than a
token has to the thing itself, or piece
of cloth to yard stick, or a quart
measure to volume of fluid. In our
modern way of doing business we make
use OF money as measure of value,
but money in itself has no more intrin-
sic value than the amount of metal, or
paper, going into it. Money is not
wealth; it serves only as a medium of
exchange in the transfer of one kind OF
goods or service for another kind of
goods or service. Goods and service
constitute wealth. A nation that is
placed so in relation to the goods of the
earth that it has plenty of it, is q
wealthy nation, and as it applies it's
energy to satisfy it's wants and the
wants of others by making use of the
goods, 1t acquires wealth. A fertile
soil, abundance CT water, useful min
erals in the bowels of the earth, trees
that bear fruit, animals that yield food
and covering, forests that furnish tim
Der, are the resources of wealth. The
intelligent and diligent use of these re-
sources by the service, or as it is gen.
orally termed. labor, of man will give
him that which satifies his wants. make
him happy, we'll and fit for life. 1t was
this kind of wealth which the late war
destroyed so much of. The waste of
all kinds of material which entered into
the purposes of the war, the destruc-
ton directly and indirectly wrought by
it was destruction of wealth. Meas
ured by dollars, the loss to the world is
computed at two hundred billion dol
lars. To this must be added the total
loss of service to the world of ten mil
lion of its best labor force who fell in
battle, and added to this another thirty
millions of people whose ability to serve
was materially reduced by the effects
of the war, or even placed as an addi-
tional burden upon thesreduced number
of people in the world who are able to
render service, labor. The extra speed
ing up of all service during the period
of the war acted, of course, as an Off
set against this loss. But the reaction
following the close of the war, showing
itself in a marked slow-up in the tempo
and efficiency of labor, is perhaps
enough to neutralize the results of the
intensified energy of the war period.
That the absolute wealth of the world
was reduced by the war can not be
doubted. The increase of the national
debt of the states of the world from
about "a billion dollars before the war
to over $50 billion dollars today is. if
not true measure of the loss, at least
an indication of the extent of it. We

Fulton Social Center Meeting.


On Friday evening, Dec. 10, the So
cial Center meeting win take up as the
principal feature of it's program the
discussion of the county agricultural
agent question, which is becoming a
vital issue in Rock county.
After shorti program of music and
tableaux, this question will be taken
up. Mr.. John Scofeld will lead, fol-
lowed by Mr.. VIM Gardiner. Then the
question will be thrown open for a gen.
eral informal discussion. Every farm
er in Rock county should express him
self on this issue at some of the meet
ings being held, or in some other way.
This meeting will offer an opportunity
for all the people in this section to do
so. We hope that everyone within rea-
sonable distance of this meeting will be
present and express themselves on this
subject.

are now supposed to be taking up the
reconstruction of the worlds wealth
status. How can it be done? There is
only one way-labor, service, produc-
ton of goods. The diligent and intelli-
gent use of the resources of nature. If
all men were Justly minded, this would
soon be accomplished. But there is the
rub; man is selfish, and some are so,
not only in the sense that they in
stinctively seek what they crave as
necessary for their welfare, but wick
edly and brutally so. The highway
robber and the profiteer, each at the
opposite end of the social phalanx, are
both criminals in so far as they violate
the principle that all men have a right
to life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
plness. The laborer who can serve and
will not, and the man of affairs who
can furnish labor but will not, are to-
gether blocking the work of recon-
struction, because they hinder the pro-
duction of wealth. Here money and it's
function comes in to play its part. In
our modern economic system it has be-
come endowed with a virtue which
in the nature of it as medium of ex-
change it has not. It should at all
times serve as ready and convenient
token of exchange of goods and serv-
ice. The value of the coin in reality
consists in its ability to facilitate the
exchange, with the least possible loss
of time and energy. To do this it must
circulate in volume large enough to
cover every needed transaction. The
cheapness or dearness of money ought
to have no bearing upon the value of
the goods or service, any more than
any token of a bargain has it. But be-
cause money has become more than
this In our modern system, it can not
function to serve its true purpose. 1t
has acquired gambling value, and be-
cause it has, it is used fol-. speculative
purposes. and taken out of the chan
nels where it helps to exchange goods
and service, and used where there is no
goods and no true service. 1t is esti-
mated that during the ten first months
of 1920 two billion dollars were used
against checks, bonds and notes for
financing industrial bubbles. What the
world needs today is to realize that to
again build up its wealth it must labor
and produce, and get away from the
wrong notion of money, by re-estab-
fishing system of finance where money
functions simply and freely enough to
facilitate the exchange of goods and
labor, so as to meet the needs of all.
The law that he who will not labor,
neither shall he eat, applies both to the
laborer who will not exchange service
for goods on fair terms, and to the
owner who will not trade goods for a
fair amount of service. This principle
applies as we'll between man and man.
as in the larger transactions in the in
dustrial world, and between the nations
of the earth The readjustment of our
financial affairs will take place as fast.
and no faster, than the reimbursement
of our sense of ethical obligation. re-
sponsipility and desire to share with
others the burden of service, as well as
the results of this service, on the basis
of justice and charity to all.

HIGH PRICES AND THEIR CURE

Beginning of the fall of prices may be attributed to the fact that the people are settling down to work and that the government has relaxed its meddling with industry. The after-war strike fever was at it's height in the summer of 1919, but it was decidely abated though strikes in many districts show that normal conditions are not yet re- stored A remarkable example of the beneficial effect of governments ces- sation of meddling with prices is the rapid fall in the price Of sugar. The high price which prevailed last sugar to be imported from all quar- ters of the globe, at the same time causing a decidely reduced consump- ton. Law of supply and demand forced the price down far more eff fectually than any man-made law could have done it.
 There is plenty of scope for fall of prices before they can reach a level at which they can be expected to remain stable. The best help that the government can give is not to make more laws restricting the act witty of citizens, but to repeal war laws, to reduce it's own expenses, to reduce and reform taxes, to 'ake in flation out of the currency and to cooperate with other nations in little wars which have followed the big war, put their people to work and put their finances in order. The most can be done by the individual citizens through increase of produc- tion, for this will force down prices all around and will cure the people of the delusion that high prices and high wages mean more Wealth-a delusion which is at the bottom of the present orgy of extravaganza when the waste of war dictates economy.
