important. and indeed constitutes the

Presidential Campaign. The
genuine Republicanism of both
is doubted and neither can be
nominated for the presidency.
The Democrats patronage for
eight years, and the Republic

who may or may not have a

A republican cannot now re-

Those who want to land right
eventually will have to go back

The fact is we are not rails

keep going up with wages: but
the farmer will win the race.

Dandruffy Heads

If you want plenty of thick, beautiful,
glossy, silky hair, do by all means get
rid Of dandruff, for it will starve your
hair and ruin it if you don't
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely
To do this. get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten tho scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel hundred
times better You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. It is inexpensive
and four ounces is all you will need
no matter how much dandruff you
have. This simple remedy never

workers and all others who are striving for short
er hours, increased pay and less efficiency in pro-
duction are merely serving to bring about con-
dition which will mean cost of living far beyond
anything which this country has ever known.
We are face to face with a farm situation
which has in it the menace of real food famine.
Blind indeed, are the men who do not recognize
these dangers. food famine would mean social
istic and anarchistic and boshevistic unrest, be-
cause the public does not understand the cause of
these high prices, and does not recognize that the
rate of city growth is enormously increasing the
number of food consumers at the expense of the
number of food producers.
But it is not merely in the shortage of our
own food production in which danger is to be
found. This condition is worldwide. The Off
cial report of the United States department of
agriculture of April II publishes statement
from the United States trade commissioner at
London, in which it is said:
"All indications point to a worldwide
shortage of wheat during 1920 and a world
wide increase in the demand"
The details given in this report show that
England will be forced to depend, to very large
extent upon America for it's wheat. There is
nothing new in this, however, though it serves to
emphasize the seriousness of the wheat shortage,
of the danger of prices of food which will stagger
the nation this fall, and, perchance, for several
years to come. Unless the people are made fully
acquainted with these facts they will not be able
to understand the situation, and, therefore, will
turn to socialistic and anarchistic agitators.
1t becomes the duty of every teacher, preach
er and business man; every newspaper, and every
other influence which can enlighten the country
as to the facts in regard to worldwide food short
age, and especially to emphasize the danger of a
food famine in this country. 1t is also incum-
bent upon every intelligent man and woman to
DO their utmost to stem the rush of population
from the country to the city, and encourage every
effort which will conduce to the larger develop
ment of the agricultural interests of America.
Produce more foodstuffs. and keep on produc-
ing more, is doctrine which should be taught
from every platform, in every office, and through
every newspaper in the land, for at the best, it
will be impossible to so increase the acreage in
foodstuffs this year as to meet our actual necessi-
ties The best we can do is to ameliorate the con-
dition by encouraging to the utmost the agricul-
tural output Of the country.

A Food Shortage Threatens Nation

The manufacturers Record, in an analysis of
the food situation, suggests the following:
The estimated decrease of 248,OOOOOO bush
ELS Of winter wheat compared with last year,
due to decrease of 100000 acres in the
amount seeded and to an extremely low average
condition of the plant, is one of the most alarm
ing food situations which this country has ever
faced. 1t is alarming not simply because this
great decrease in the wheat crop means very
high price for flour but because the decrease in
wheat acreage is merely Indicative of the general
decrease in the acreage of other crops. The
American people have not yet awakened to a real
ization of what the agricultural decline means.
The farms have been drained by the cities un-
til the production Of sufficient food to meet our
actual necessities is much endangered that it
is altogether probable that the food prices of to-
day will, twelve months hence seem to be very
cheap. There is shortage in wheat; there is
also big shortage in rye, and likely to be a
shortage in the acreage devoted to grain and
other crops.
It is not in the power of the farmers to change
the situation. With the utmost stretch of their
activity, and working from dawn till darkness,
they cannot produce food enough to meet the
nations needs. There is no earthly reason why
a farmer should be expected to work longer hours
than an industrial worker, but the railroad en-
ployes and industrial workers are insisting upon
an eight-hour day. If the farmers and the farm
laborers followed this example, the cost of all
foodstuffs would almost double in price over
night Every hour cut off from the industrial
workers day, with its accompanying demand for
an increase in pay, only serves to intensity the
food situation by driving farm laborers away
from the country to the city, and causes steady
decrease in food production. The industrial
