Don't Expect 1t Now

When you read in the papers that the
manufactures have madea big cut in shoes,
shirts, shaving sticks or any other line of
goods it is not reasonable to expect to go
to the'corner grocery and find these reduc-
tions in effect the next day. When the
actual fact is disclosed it usually transpires
that the cut is in goods not yet made and
will apply next spring and not on the in
slant.
Theretail dealer is hard pushed just now.
He has his shelves crowded with goods
bought at the top price and he must get
his money, or considerable part of it,
out of these goods before he can even
buy the lines that are offered cheaper
generally for next spring delivery.
We hear great deal about the people
refusing to buy goods until the prices go
down, but there is not evident proper con-
sideration even for the retail dealer.
Most Of them are now sacrificing, not only
of their hoped for profit, but a part OF
their capital invested, often borrowed
money, trying to get back On a re-adjusted
basis of stability.
1t is all right to take advantage of bar
gains offered, but at the same time it is
we'll to remember that the retail dealer is
caught between the millstones of high
prices paid and trade demand for sacri-
fee The lot of the retail dealer for the
mex; few months is not to be envied.-

Of course the school question will be one
of the important considerations at the
coming session of the state legislature. But
there will also be another question fully as
important and that is the road question.
There will no doubt be a move to give
towns the exclusive control of its roads
and that will mean more and better atten-
ton to the so-called back roads" Trunk
lines and state roads should be maintained,
but not at the expense of the back roads, y
which are the roads that are necessary to
bring produce and other commodities to
the marketing points.

Gasoline Situation
Analyzed by Woods

W. A. Woods, in commenting upon
the rumors concerning a gasoline short
age in this country, says Most of
the talk was brought about by trans
portation difficulties. An increase of
five cents a gallon on the price of
gasoline would only mean SIS year
to the motorist, and that would hardly
force many to give up the use of
motor vehicle which has proved itself
to be q necessity.
"Motorists should. however, try to
save gasoline as 100000 cars in the
United States mean big consumpt on
Motor vehicles are the heaviest users
Of gasoline, using in 1919 more than
3.107 ,654000 out of the total consump-
ton Of 3,80S, $40 gallons. A pas
senger car uses 800 gallons of gasoline
yearly and a truck 1900 gallons
Other users are airplanes, motor boats,
railway motor cars, farm tractors, sta
tionary and portable engines, paint and
varnish manufacture, cleaning indus
try, gasoline stoves and rubber manu-

A ruling recently obtained from the
Italian Fuel Administration permits
foreign visitors motoring through or

This concession will do away with
the difficulty hitherto experienced by
tourists in Italy in procuring a suf-
icient amount of fuel for their cars,
and is in connection with the opening

Young Lady Said
1 Went to Pieces

II heard about the good Dreco was
doing folks around here so I thought
l would see what it would do for me.
I have now taken two bottles and have

l don't mind my work one bit because

did me world of good and l have
lost all that nervousness that troubled
me. l am only togla d to tell others
what Dreco has done and hope it will
do them as much good as it did me-"
Dreco relieves gas in the stomach
quickly, gets the bowels moving and
rouses lazy liver, so very soon you
notice the nerves get steady, sleep be-
comes sound, appetite picks up. color
returns to the cheeks and the body
takes on more flesh, and you feel full

AMERICAN FARMERS
ARE we'll EDUCATED
(From the New Republic. )


Broadly speaking, l should say that
the average mind in America is better
than the average mind in England, so
far as appreciation of literature is
concerned. We are accustomed in
England to think of the United States
as land in which education has been
raised to very high degree but dur
ing my stay there / found that in
structed Americans were deeply per-
turbed by the extent of illiteracy
among their poorer countrymen and
also by tho somewhat shallow char
acter of the education given in their
good schools.
But where the American is an edu-
Gated man, he is, on the whole, a man
of better taste than the same man in
England. English authors of high
quality are nearly always more widely
read in America than they are in Eng
