STAND. tmIneuate1y amer the National
Grange expressed its attitude toward
the railroad question the American
Farm Bureau, meeting in Chicago, vot-
ed for private operation, and the Ma
tiOnal Farmers Congress, in session at
Hagerstown, Md, voiced like senti

cations and the Indiana Federation of
Farmers went beyond that and Joined

Urge Reasonable Returns.
The .railroad policy favored by the
New York State Federation of County
Farm Bureau Organizations was stat.

whereas, There have been conflict

attitude of farmers upon the question
of the future ownership of railways;
therefore be 1t

Y, December 10, 1919, hereby indOrses
the action of the American Farm Blu
reau Federation in urging Congress to
promptly return the railways to their
owners under such conditions as will

of the property and reasonable rates of
transportation throughout the coun-

Views of Farmer Papers
The American Agriculturist states
editorially that the farmers are dead
set against" the scheme to enmesh the
farmers in the web of radicalism."
The Pennsylvania Farmer. discussing
the general demand for private opera
ton of the railroads, says: 1T is espe-
cially true of farmers, in spite of tie
declaration of few would be leaderH
to the contrary" The Steckman-
Farmer adds
Farmers almost unanimously APP
prove the return of the railroads and
the express companies to their owners
The reason is that farmers, as well as
other business men, want service of
these institutions, and they cannot get
such service under public operation as
they can get under the operation of
which have a direct finan-
cial interest in performing it."

Couldn't Stoop
To Tie His Shoe
ILLINOIS FARMER GETS RID OF
RHEUMATISM BY TAKING
TANLAC
HE GAINED "a POUNDS

"Tanlac not only added twenty
four pounds to my weight but put me
in as good health as ever was in my
life," said Augustus Heighs, a well
known farmer of Morton, Ill.
''For four years was troubled
with rheumatism and indigestion"
he continued, "and many day gave
clean out while working in the field
and had to lie down until | got
strength enough to get back to the
house. My rheumatism was so bad
that every morning l had to rub my
legs before l could stand up and my
back was so stiff and painful that it
nearly killed me to stoop over. My
Joints too were so stiff and sore that
could not bend over to tie my shoes.
My appetite was very poor and when
| did eat anything was in misery
for hours afterwards. l was hardly
ever able to get good nights rest
because my kidneys were so badly
out of order, and last spring my con-
dition got so bad / wasn't able to
work and for several weeks l could
hardly get out of the house.
"The man hired to take my place
recommended Tanlac so highly that l
began taking it and to make a long
story short, haven't pain in my
body now and can do as hard days
work as any man. l eat three square
meals a day, digest them perfectly
and sleep like top every night. In
fact, I couldn't ask to be in better
health, and all the credit is due Tan
lac"

Private ownership of the railroads
under a policy Of government regula-

service at the lowest cost consistent
with fair returns on money invested in
them is favored by representative
farmer organizations throughout the
country. This policy also is supported
generally by agricultural newspapers,
which state emphatically that the
farmers are opposed not only to gov
eminent ownership of railroads, but
also to all naturalization plans.
In a letter to the members of the
United States Senate T. G. AtkesOn,
Washington representative of the Ma

The New Year

l hail the new year gladly, and
say to it, Good day." while still
surveying sadly the year that's
passed away. The old year
seemed winner when first its
tour began, but now old Time,
the timer, has put it in can.
That year was punk and daffy,
the worst of all bum bets; this
much of epitaphy is all the dead
one gets. But now its bright
successor with gladness | accost,
and I'm a cheap john guesser if
it should prove a frost. l hail
the buoyant stranger and hope
he'll set us free from dread and
doubt and danger and all the ills
there be. l hope he'll bring
good feeling. contentment, in his
train. and end the foolish spiel
ing that's driving men insane. l
hope he'll bring a season of quiet
land repose. and back to law and
reason lead people by the nose.
For | am, oh. so weary of riot
land unrest, of frowsy skates and
hleary who do their dirty best
to stir up useless quarrels. to
make mems passions flame. to
undermine their morals and
spoil their useful game. The old
years buried under a million
tons of grit the new year is a
wonder. and ought to make a
hit. WALT MASON.

BAY OF EXPLOITS, N, F., June 24 (by Associated Press 1.-The women of Tilt Cove are the pride and the envy of the bay today. In a season of failure in the sealing industry, they have scored a catch and kill of size. Wives and daughters succeeded where the men of the bay had failed.
 The ice was still running on this northern coast, and the men had gone far out to find the seals that follow it. The wife of the lighthouse keeper on Gull island saw signs of the herd on the ice, sent word ashore to the women of Tilt Cove and marshalled them into sealing crews.
 They went in boats, armed with clubs and gaffs, and climbing onto the ice cakes, set out to round up a catch. They found the seals spraWled on all sides, and learned later that they had struck the main patch, the hope of all seal hunters.
 The women went about their work with vim and had captured or killed 100 seals when exhaustion and ap- preaching nightfall compelled them to cease their labOrs and make their catch secure. When the men came back they were given the task of stripping the pelts and rendering the oil

 INTO HOSPITAL.

SHANGHAI, June 25 (by Associated Press 1.-The great gambling estab- lishment in this city, notorious for years under the name of "The Wheel" which originally cost more than S5OO,- 900, is to be converted into charity hospital The Chinese authorities have announced that they intend to confiscate the huge building which now stands dark and empty. Its own CTS, however, threaten to fight this program.
 Up to about three years ago when the place was closed by Chinese au- thorities '"The Wheel" in Shanghai was one of the biggest gambling estab- lishments in the Far East. It was located in Chinese territory on North Honan road, a fifteen minute automo- bile ride from the heart of the city. In the days when the establishment f1ourished, three roulette wheels with six layouts, beside faro and other games, were operated.
 After this establishment was closed as the result of the efforts of mis- sionary interests no open gambling on any large scale was permitted In Shanghai until last fall, when the in- terests that formerly operated "The Wheel" opened near it @ smaller rou- 1ette establishment which in turn was closed after a few weeks.
