A CONSPIRACY TO ROB.


According to authentic reports
now being filed by the. Govern
ment, it is plainly brought out
that the sole cause for the ex-
horbitant prices which prevailed
during the past sixteen months,
was the agreement entered into
between the manufacturers and
the wholesalers and iobbers,
whereby it was provided that the
manufacturers bound themselves
} keep up the inflated and alb
normal prices until the whole
ssalers and jobbers had disposed
Of the goods bought by them.
That is why shoes which were
actually worth $500 sold for four
times that price and, clothes worth
$40 and $50 were marked up at
rs and 800.
The same conspiracy was fol-
lowed in everything and the peo-
pie were feeced of million of
dollars by this band of business.
rocks.
With the slump in prices, there
has been a big squak and the con-
spiracy is unearthed. -Assump-

SAVE MEAT BY EXERCISING
CARE.

Cleanliness is the most i'm
portant factor in butchering and
curing meats, says the United
States Department of Agriculture
! W Farmers Bulletin 913. Meat
becomes tainted very easily.
Save all pieces of meat for
sausage. There are many WAYS Of
converting it into palatable
product.
All waste fat, trimmings, and
kin should be rendered and the
product used to make soup.
bones should be crushed or
ground for chicken feed.
Never put meat in cure before
the animal heat is out of it.
Always pack meat skin-Side-
down when in the curing process,
except the top layer in a brine
cure, which should be turned
hesh-side-down.
Keep close watch on the brine.
and if it become "ropy" change
it.
Do not forget to turn or change
meat several times during the cur
ing process.
4 The fat or dry-cured meat some
times becomes yellow, but that
not make it unwholesome.
1t takes more time to smoke
dry-cured than brine-cured pork,
Slow smoking is much better
than rapid smoking, the heat is
not so great and there is less
chance of causing the meat to
drip.

troubled with my back, sharp
pains darted through my Kidneys
very frequently and when |
worked in a stopped position any
length of time, it was hard for
me to straighten up says Mr..
Moss. "My kidneys were dis
ordered and caused me much an
noyance. | had those dull, achy
feelings all over my body until ]
began using Doan's Kidney Pills
Doan's helped me very quickly
and when I had used them for
few weeks, they entirely cured
me of the trouble. / have never
had any return of it since that

TEN PUREBRED HENS IN
EVERY BACKYARD

Residents of the cities and
towns who have backyard space
should keep a flock Of purbred
hens.
The writer in travelling through
out Louisiana has noted hundreds
and hundreds of homes in the
cities and small towns who have
backyard space sufficiently large
TO accommodate a small flock Of
purbred hens. This backyard
space which is going to waste
could be very easily converted
into a paying industry and Incl
dentally would decrease the
monthly market bill an apprec-
liable extent.
By keeping backyard poultry
flock the family would not only
heln i'll reducing the high cost Of
living but would have eggs of a
quality and erfshness which are
often difficult to obtain.
Each hen in her pullet year
should produce 10 dozen eggs
The average size of the backyard
flock should be at least 10 hens.
Thus each flock would produce
in year 100 dozsnS of eggs,
which at the conservative value
of 40 cents a dozen would be
worth $4O-H. L. Williams. poul-

COMPULSORY MOTHERHOOD.

This time it is the French who are
debating the expediencv Of com

compelling their women to be

already being made to encourage
large families. Bounties are
promised, with awards and in
ducements of every kind. And
now savant comes forward with
the sensational suggestion noted
above. We read in American
Medicine New York;
"Just as military service is
obligatory for men, maternal
