The hunters, both men and women,
come out in answer to the horn, clad
in gay garments, mounted on horses

great pack of dogs are let loose and
quickly pick up the scent of the fox.
Then the chase is on, the dogs racing

the hunters following close behind.
The trained horses take hedge and

Americans are coming to treat up

There are, In the whole country,

though we are considerably better off
than we were In 1917. That is, we
have 24,O0OOOO barrels this year.
That's about one for each family in

never admit this to be sufficient. and
he should not.

CHECKING PROFITEERING

EIhe newspaper al Is one OF the prln'
cipal agencies working against proflteer
| ing. 1t is impossible to maintain ex-
| orbitant prices in "a community where
| the stores advertise freely.
In a non-advertising town 1t, is rela-
lively easy to put over high prices.
People get in the habit of trading at
certain stores. They buy what is hand
ed out to them at the prices asked. If
they do not like the prices the plausible
seller will soon be able to convince them
that he is doing as well as he could.
Any tendency in that direction is kill
ed by the spirit of publicity. Ii a pur-
chaser'is asked a high price !. at one
store he compares it mentally with
other store advertising he has read. He
concludes that he can do better else
where and he resolves to investigate
the offerings he read about in the news
papers.
4. Thus advertising sets Il certain stan
dard to which even the non advertiser
has to conform. One man can not main
tain a high price, if at the same, mo-
ment his advertising competitor is SELL
ing the same stuff at a lower figure.
Or if he does ask a higher price he must
come out in the open and explain in
white and black why his goods are.
enough superior to justify the higher
charge. q ~
Thus advertising promotes competi-
tion,- and leads the. trade to sell goods
on their merit, and for prices that will
seem justifiable in comparison with;
competitors. 1t enables the man who,
is willing to sell at close margins to get
the business that he merits as the re-
suit of his efficiency. The tendency to
ask unreasonable prices is thus held in
check and can not long exist in an adj
vertising town.

to Des Moines with their herds, and
there will be between fifty and sixty
pigs taken to the fair, and Crawford

will be taken. The stock is from the
well known Healy herd and one day
last week Mr.. Healy looked the litter

pigs were narrowed March 18th, and
one of the! male pigs measured 40 inches
in length Mr.. Healy claims he never
heard of pig of that age measuring
that length. All Of the litter stand
right up on their toes, have high arch

understanding they had only been vac

Raymond is proud of his litter and ex-
poets to show at Des Moines.
Irvyn Bremner caters to the aarnp.

splendid looking pigs. They are nice
and smooth, clear eyed, and most of
the litter are well marked with a white
band. The litter was narrowed March
21st and show up big for their age.
They are tall, lengthy well arched

Ancient Grain. DO Not terminate.

The United States department Of
agricultural gives hard knock to the
stories about the termination Of
wheat and other cereals found
wrapped with ancient Egyptian mum
mics. 1t says that close investigation
proves all such reports to be fictitious.
French tests show that grain more
than a few years old will not germi-
nate. Tests Indicate that when seeds
are kept under ideal conditions wheat,
barley and oats may germinate up to
eight or ten years, but few II any
grains are alive after 20 years.

FRANCE AND ARMENIA


 Frances sudden solicitude for the Armenians is suspicious. The eloquent Rene Vivani has something up his sleeve Ills efforts to pledge the league of nations to search the world for country willing to save Armenia are the result of too rapid a conversion Never before has France been alarmed for the security of the Armenians. France has been content to lot Armeni- ans and Turks fight their own battles. But. of late. the soviet troops in the Caucasus have crossed from Russian Armenia into Turkish Armenia. Propa- ganda to convert the Armenians to bolshevism is on the increase. A re- cent bolshivilSi congress in the Cau- casus pledged universal brotherhood to Christian Arnenians and followers of Oriental creeds alike.
 Frances alarm for the safety of Armenians undoubtedly is the result of the bolshevilus' entrance upon the scene. France pretends in one sen tence that she desires to save Ar menia from Turkish massacres, and in the next sentence suggests the great powers lvgotiate with the Turkish rebel hordes in Armenia as with a sovereign government.
 Frances invitation to America to safeguard Armenia is in reality a skill fully concealed plot to involve the United States In armed conflict with tho soviet forces of the Caucasus Frances policy of fighting the bol- sheviki from without Russia has proven a dismal failure. Frances Rus sian policy is as bankrupt as Russia herself.
 Hut, if France can persuade America 10 send an army to Armenia. France knows the American troops eventually will have to face Russian troops. Once that happens France believes the logic of events may range America or Frances side in active opposition to Russia. France is wasting her time The web of French diplomacy will not trap the United States.
