Today almost every farm in the
country is undermanned: almost ev-
cry farmer is curtailing production
because he cannot plant and harvest
full crop. The city is taking the
boys and the young men. The grey
boards alone are left on the soil. There
is no new generation of farmers COM
ing along to feed the country. AS
soon as the boys can strike out for
themselves they go to the town and
cities, to the eight hour and eight
dollar day jobs, and the fiddling
and dancing by night. With the con-
dition now existing, and ever increas-
ing, it is folly to believe that there
will be any decided reduction in the
food prices.--Saturday Evening Post.

VII. Wounds.

For all general purposes, wounds
may be classified under five general
heads. First, INCISED, such as a
sharp knife or razor would inflict
Second, Lacerated, where the flesh is
torn apart, as by a fish hook, barbed
wire, or the jagged edges of tin can.
Third, PUNCTURED, a wound great
er in its depth than its width, as by
stepping on an upturned nail in a
board, falling on a spike and piercing
the hand, or silver running in deep.
Fourth, POISONED, such as a rattle
snake bite, or that of the bite of a
dog or other animal with rabies.
Fifth, GUNSHOT WOUNDS. Never
neglect a trivial (?) wound, as so Of
ten blood poisoning comes from just
such cuts chafings or scratches, so
never take a chance" on those, but
rather do something for it since cts
better to be safe than sorry"
All serious wounds call for imme-
date medical treatment, but if the
hospital is too far off or the doctor is
likely to be long in coming, something
must be done in the way of first aid

HOW TOBE A HELP

V, Poison.

'. Poison.
This is BIG subject, and one which
cannot be taken up exhaustively in
elementary papers such as this series
affords, and then, too, it would not be
wise to make this lesson too technical,
since what is really necessary is to
give few plain hints such as will
prove effectual in meeting such an
emergency as poisoning.
Lots of people think that in all cas-
es of poisoning, the most important
thing to do is to give an emetic-to
make the patient vomit, but that is a
very unfortunate idea, for in some cas-
es it would prove fatal. So
then, to be quite sure as to this mat
ter of emeties, if the mouth or lips are
burned or stained, that is usually the
evidence that an acid or strong alkali
has been swallowed, and in that case
an emetic MUST NOT be given.
Among acids, salts of lemon and GER
tain polishing pastes must be includ-
ed, while the alkalies are caustic po-
fash, caustic soda Qye) and ammonia.
What we need to remember in cases
of acid or alkali poisoning is that we
must first give neutralizer, hence if
it is acid that is swalled the antidote
or neutralizer is an ALKALI! such as

vi. Common Emergencies.

There are numerous ills which hu-
manity has to suffer, of which some
are of such a nature that it is not al
ways necessary for the services of a
physician, though it is always best to
err on the safe side. Therefore, in
any illness where one is puzzled and
where there are symptoms which tend
to grow worse, lose no time in calling
for medical aid. There are only too
many sad hearts in the world whose
grief is unceasing, because of the aw-
full conviction that they were guilty
of neglect in this very matter.
This leads me to wage upon all wo-
men to insist on the organization of

to bring this about, and how much il
! will mean to your own immediate
family as well as the community!
A word of warning must be raised
here, particularly in reference to pa
tent medicines. Don't have anything
to do with them! If you have any
vital ailment, seek reliable medical adj
vice, but best of all follow the sugges-
ton of the old rhyme, Health tenn
perance and repose, slam the door on
the Doctors nose"
We suggest a few hints which will
be helpful in dealing with the follow
ing emergencies:
Cramp and Collie.
This trouble is due to a spasm of the
intestines, usually caused by indiges-
tible food, and frequently by cold
when overheated in hot weather; in
children, by eating green apples, ETC.
Care ought to be taken to avoid these
causes, particularly spoiled foods or
unripe fruit.
The symptoms are well known, as
for instance, the severe gripping pains
in the abdomen, but if there is vomit-
ing and purging you may suspect
ptomaine poisoning. Ordinarily hot
water bottle to abdomen brings relief,
or rubbing sometimes is helpful, soda
mint tablets, or hot water with lit
tie ginger. If the stomach can be
emptied by an emetic so much the bet
ter, and a purgatiye ought also to be
given, salts or a seidlitz powder.
Diarrhea.
This trouble may follow as result
of collie, and usually its prevention i!
the same. Never be too hasty il
| checking diarrhea, if it is obstinate in
sist on a doctors services, but in or
| binary cases Ito.

ARGENTINE WHEAT PRICE
IN new COMPLICATIONS
Additional Export Duties Cause
Other Nations to Call
Attention.

BUENoS AIRES. June 4.-Interna-
tional complications have arisen rel
ative to the new legislation placing
additional export duties on wheat.
which has been passed by the cham
Der OF deputies and is now before the
senate. Ministers for the British.
french and Italian governments have
calied the attention of Argentine off,
clais TO the serious effect the law will
have on purchases Of Argentine wheat
already contracted for by European
countries.
As the law stands, the new export
duty would apply to wheat already
contrac cted for and still awaiting em-
barkation. 1t is learned by the AS
sociated Press that this wheat
amounts, in the case of the French
government, to 100000 tons; British.
10000 tons. and Italian. 100000 tons.
This wheat, with other contra cts
pending, exceeds by far the Argen-
tine governments surplus for export,
which totals to about 100000 tons.
1t IS understood the diplomats inti-
mated their governments had been
encouraged by Argentina to buy
wheat, and had contracted for it
through their respective wheat COM
missions here. While they recognize
the perfect propriety of Argentina
taking measures to prevent any ex-
cessive rise in the price in bread in
this country, they declare they did
not contemplate wheat duty that
would be retroactive.

ONLY LIGHT TRADE

Profit Taking Sales.
BY STUART p. WEST.

WALL STREET, NEW YORK, June
5.-The stock market, which had be-
gun to move forward just at the close
yesterday, continued it's advance at
the opening this morning. Then it
ran into heavy prof1t-taking. which
threw the movement into some irregu-
larity.
But as a rule the gains in the
speculative leaders were we'll MAIN
tanned up to the end.
The street liked the overnight news
from Chicago, not that it was par
ticularly definite, but that it seemed
to indicate that none of the candi-
dates who have been in the limelight
throughout the preliminary canvass
stands much chance Of nomination 1t
is figured out from this that there
would be a compromise candidate and
that he would not be of the radical
stripe.
Railway shares were neglected, and
were inclined to heaviness. but this
was only because the industrials
promised better possibilities at the
moment for the in-and-out traders,
and this element were temporarily
selling out some of their holdings Of
rails in order to be more free to 20
into the industrial quarter.
Equipments Strong.
The equipment stocks, under the
lead of Baldwin Locomotive, Car and
and American Locomotive
were the leaders.
The Independent steel stocks, in
which there was considerable short
interest, moved forward rather easily.
and the motors were also in demand
from the short interest.
Retail stores, Tobacco Products and
Securities were all very active and
strong, the 1ast-named being brought
into line with the rise in the other
two. Oil stocks and International Pa
per were likewise prominent.

EUROPEAN RECOVERY :.

Belgium's Example. ~ 10

That Great Britain's measures sto

enlightened self-interest" is one Of
the striking indications Of substantial
improvement in the general situation
abroad, according to the statement of
the Guaranty Trust Company of New
York in the latest issue Of its fort

and Foreign Markets"
THE recovery of all Europe depends
in very large measure on the increas-,
ing strength of the British empire" it
adds. land Great Britain is sparing
neither resources nor keen Judgment
to this end. Every important decision
is weighed much more with an eye
to the future than the immediate
present
"In this line stands the decision-tO
repay the Anglo-French loan at ma
turity, which single transaction, .ac-
cording to Sir Robert Horne, the lord
chancellor, will be worth hundreds of
millions to the empire. 1t is undoubt-

ment. but the British regard it as a
sound investment in future good Will

gency and to tide over exceptional
periods? It IL this quality of ingenious
foresight and governmental hextbiffty
which demand the most careful land
profitable study from our own leaders
in foreign trade"
Belgfum's Remarkable Recovery
Belgium, too. presents an interest
ing example of what compact pub
lie opinion can accomplish in q re-
markably short time" continues the
Guaranty Trust Company.
'In the first quarter of this year
Belgian railroads were hauling, no
less than so per cent of the normal
pre-war freight trains. The coal out
put exceeded that Of 1913. Her ex-
ports to many neighboring countries
greatly exceeded her imports from
them. Fully 76 per cent as many peo-
pie were employed in Belgium by De-
cember, 1919. as in December. 5L913-
The end of this year ought to see
Belgium in a position to be wholly
Independent of additional financing
from other countries. naF
ut is just as certain that the de-
preston of the moment in Europe
contains the definite promise very
real recovery as that the apparent
prosperity of 1918 contained the static
elements of the war. To call atten-
tion to these things is merely to warn
the over-cautious American merchant
and exporter that the time for con-.
structing a solid foreign trade is not
always when conditions look best. The
most auspicious occasion is when the
forces Of economics and human psy-
chology are setting up their natural
cure Our war trade is past: our
present trade is complex and uneven:'
but our trade of the next fifty years
is in the building today"

TAX REVISION IS URGED
AS BUSINESS NECESSITY
Charged With Responsibility for
Much Trouble-Government
Still Wasteful.
From Corn Exchange Bank Circular.

From Corn Exchange Bank Circular
AS the time is at hand for the nomi-
nations by the two great political
parties Of the candidates who are to
contest for the fall elections. a word
may be said regarding what is per-
haps the greatest fundamental cause
Of the mire Of imitation from which
we are now seeking to extricate our
selves, namely. taxation.
Although recognition Of the fact
was slow. the country has at last
begun to see that one of the potent
causes Of high prices and of the
celebrity with which they advanced is
the excess profits tax.
While our entire system of taxa
tfon demands revision to a scientific
basis. the tax on excess profits. or
profits which it was broadly assumed
accrued from war conditions solely.
and which was calculated to Offset
the advantage which any highly eff
cfent manufacturer or merchant might
gain over his less efficient competitor
during the regime of fixed prices, is
the most pernicious.
Due to the novelty of the tax. and
with no experience as to how it would
work in practice, 1t was necessarily
treated as an indeterminate con-
tingency to be figured in overhead,
or at least to be included in the SELL
ing price of the goods. The result
has been that the consumer in almost
every instance pays the tax, not only
once. but in the guise of higher
prices. MANIFOLD as the goods pass
through various hands to ultimate
consumption.
Consult Business Men.

every form Of our present taxation,
even down to stamp taxes. the con-
sumer pays In the last analysis. In
the case Of persons having fixed in
comes from investments or from sal
ary the practical operation Of taxa
ton through the medium of higher
prices amounts almost to conf1scation
The irony of the situation is that
while the public is being constantly
implored by administration officials
to economize and to save money.
its money, taken in taxes, is being
wasteful and unnecessary government
departments and commissions at
rate nearly nine times as great as
seven years ago.
Having failed utterly to take ad-
vantage of our opportunity during the
past eighteen months. the present
period Of liquidation should be made
the occasion to bring about a re-
vision Of all our tax laws, not from
the standpoint of political expediency.
but by and with the advice Of our
business men whose services were
eagerly sought and cheerfully given
during the dark days Of the war, and
who have since demonstrated their
ability to guide the country safely
through its period Of reconstruction.
Suggest Permanent Board.
These Same men should be consult
ed with a view to organizing a per-
manent advisory board, not only for
the revision and subsequent super
vision of the entire system Of federal
taxation. but for the development of
our international trade, which is rap
idly slipping away from us and which
is second only to taxation as vital
question of the moment.
