VALUES ARE HIGH.
There can be no disputing the fact
that real estate values in Washington
are high. They are everywhere. Build
ing, along with other industries, has
been growing more costly during the
past three years. The reason Is per-
fectly obvious; everything that goes
into building, from the cost OF labor
to the price Of nails. has advanced In
price. And the nails cost more be-
cause labor costs more: and building
costs more because both cost more
and building cannot take a sudden
drop unless the price of all building
materials and the cost OF labor take

hsa built him up and made him feel
fine.
Il couldn't do anything when l got
over the grip" Mr.. Haner said. For
period of about ten days l was so
weak that all did was lie around the
house.
Il read about Vola-Tonic in the
newspapers, and finally decided to go
down to Quigley drug store at Eighth
and Main streets and ask the drug
gists there about Vola-Tonic and see
If they would recommend it.
We'll, the druggists at Quigley's
store recommended Vola-Tonic to me
and l got bottle and started taking
it. / am now on my second bottle

The executive board of the Indiana
association of farmers declarations has
decided to increase the scope of its
legislative committee by having four
men from each district and four from
each county, in addition to the CEN
trail committee, composed of five men,
bers.
The district and county members
will be composed of two from each
party, one a man and one woman.
Questionaires are to be sent to all
leading candidates of both leading
parties, asking their views on matters
of interest to farmers.
These missionaries are to be
drafted by the central committee and
sent out to the various county and

turn, will see that they are turned
over to the office seekers, including
aspirants for seats in the next state

IL is doubtful II we shall raise as
many hogs this year as we did in
1919," said Frank NJ. Campbell, of Col
lege Corner. I'm the first place some
farmers wintered fewer brood sows,
the outlook not being overly encour-
aging.
There were a few losses of early
pigs, perhaps. but these were not large
enough to affect the situation, for the
spring pig crop is still largely to come.
Don't believe there is a general tend
ency to limit pork production around
here, but at that feel sure that the
entire country will market many less
hogs than last year. Hogs must be
pretty closely sold out in most
sections.
LAS to the future of prices, that
isn't for me to judge, although every
man has a guess coming. Personally,
l am hoping for better price along in
the summer; believe they are due, but
every feeder is at sea, has no chart
to steer by.
Hardly think we can reasonably
hope for any such figures as have been
paid for hogs, but in view of the cost
OF feeds and other circumstances, we
should certainly get more money for
both hogs and cattle. AS to spring
planting judge that our farmers will
till all the land they can handle.
though some may have to reduce their
acreages for lack of help, and If so,
this will develop later"
