the wool grower has no protection in
the way of tariff, and so long as for

Farm Life. was overlooged by many
farmers last year. They pooled their
wool in the determination that it must
bring q dollar pound, only to discoy-
err that even the biggest wool pool
could not fix the price arbitrarily.
Farmers must keep this point in view
in working out the grain marketing
program, because the same principle
applies. The wheat growers who held
back their grain for three dollars last
fall were just as mistaken as the wool
growers who were bound to have a
dollar. World conditions are bound
to govern on all commodities that en-
ter into foreign trade. A tariff on
wool might help-if one could be
passed. The highest tariff on wheat,
however. is a different matter, as long
as we have surplus to export.

WHEN NERVES
ARE UNSTRUNG
Guides Pepto-Mangan Builds Up
Vigor and Strength.

There are times when men and
women cannot help losing strength.
They try to do too much or they lose
sleep or do not eat enough food that
nourishes. Blood becomes sluggish
because poisons clog it. Faces grow
pale and pasty looking. 1t is not long
before nerves get unstrung.
The best way to start a change for
the better is to take course of GUIDES
Pepto-Mangan. 1t builds the blood.
The weakness from a lack of red cells
in the blood is overcome. GUIDES
PeptO-Mangan sends a fresh supply
Of red cells streaming through the
blood. Good blood, pure and free
from poisons, starts building vigor
and strength. Sleep is better, appe-
tite keener, so that the body becomes
properly nourished. Druggists have
GUIDES Pepto-Mangan in both liquid
and tablet form. The name "Gude's
Pepto-Mangan" is on the package.

Nurse Says ''GIandO
Pine, Should Be
In Every Home''
NOTHING BETTER FOR COUGHS

Della Sweeney, of Chicago, says: "Glan-
do Pine has been great help to me- I
use it in nursing and have had wonderful
results. l believe it will prevent compl-
cations from arising if it is used when
the cold first develops. l can not recon-
mend it toe, highly for I believe it should
be in every home"
If mothers could only know what it
means to have good cough remedy in
the home they would never be without it.
The time to doctor a cold is when it first
starts. A few hours OF neglect may mean
serious sickness. Glando Pine is cheap
and pleasant to take. 1t quickly relieves
Group, hoarseness, bronchitis, throat tickle,
sore throat and allays the infamed or
irritated condition of the throat and bron-
chial tubes.
Glando Pine is sold in a concentrated
form. You make your syrup and save
about 81 a pint. No trouble to prepare.
Full directions go with each bottle. Get, a
3-oz. bottle (60c worth) of your druggist
and you can make pint of the best
cough medicine you ever used. Use 1t
freely and save expense and sickness. Tbs

THE SCHOOL HERO CHANGES
No Longer Does the Freshman Win
Football Games Single Handed
Style Improved.

There has been a noticeable slump
In the demand by boys at libraries
for the school story, with the hero
who always won the big football game
and who knocked the home run with
three on bases when, as substitute
player, he brought the baseball hon
OrS to Tushtushville prep school.
Boys who have tried to go out and
win football games single handed and
who have sought an opportunity to
make home runs at crucial moments
in school baseball series, have found
out what rot has been handed them
in fiction. They know that boys sim
ply don't do such things-not as
''frosh," anyway.
The school hero still maintains, but
he is travelling at slower pace.
PreXy does not kowtOw to the gifted
youth as suddenly as in the heyday
of such fiction. Librarians say that
the big Improvement in school fiction
has come through saner plots and
more careful work in characteriza-
ton. The author must really show
his own interest in a school character
if he is going to get the hero over

BattIe-Rattered Monster.

The curators of the Launceston
and Tasmanian museums have pre-
sented the Royal Society of Tasmania a
preliminary account of a nearly COM
plete skeleton Of gigantic extinct
monster, recently discovered in the
pleistocene beds of Tasmania. The
animal was as large as the largest
existing rhinoceros. The newly dis
covery shows clearly that it was a
rhinoceros-like animal, with a skull
built for aggressive warfare, and at
least one powerful horn ON the snout.
Evidence of the gigantic battles in
which this animal engaged is to be
found in the complete smashing and
partial mending of the collar-bone,
and in the crushing and subsequent
repair of the bones of the nose and
snout.

RAILROADS IGNORE STATUTES THEY PUT
 OVER ON CONGRESS

Washington, Sept 9.-The railroads have not lived up to the Cu1nnlins -Esch law, declared Congressman Huddleston i'll a speech in the house of representa- tives
 They have not" he said, lived up to the clause of the act which requires them to operate honestly and economically, but more serious than this they have fouted violated and evaded its labor sec ton. These sections were placed in the act at the instance of railroads. The en- ployes unanimously opposed them. The railroad lobbyists, by their influence up- on congress forced the labor sections down the employees throats Now the railroads themselves refuse to obey those sections.
 Time after time the railroads have labor board Time after time has the railroad labor board been forced to call halt on their 1awlessness.
 "Take the Pennsylvania railroad for instance It was ordered to have a con- ference with its employees. It refused to recognize the employees organizations and tried to create bastard organization of it's own The railroad labor board denounced its action and again ordered it to confer with its employees. The rail road has not yet compiled although the time for compliance has expired, and as q result a labor disturbance which may lock the nation IS threatened upon that railroad system.
 Take the case of the Erie with its shops at Hornell, N. Y., farmed out to a fictitious corporation oficered by rail- road officials for the purpose of evading the transportation act and the orders ot the railroad labor board.
 The case of the Erie shops, at Marion, Ohio, is a shocking illustration of rail- road dishonesty and deception. The Erie las leased it's Marion shops to a dummy corporation capitalized at $1 900, with not enough capital to meet the pay roll for a single day. The Fries master mechanic, under the guise of an officer of the new corporation, was continued Ill charge ot the shops Rules were posted requiring employees to submit to a physical exam1- nation by the company doctor, paying the fee from their own pockets. All ot this for the purpose of evading the orders ot the railroad labor board,
 How can railroads holding themselves above the law expect to have law-ab1d1ng emploves More than this, how they can expect to hold the sympathy and con- fidence of congress? How oan they ex- pect congress to lend them the peoples money to relieve their necessities!

London, England, Sept 9.-"The building of battle ships will never help our unemployed" declares John Hill general secretary of the United Society of Boiler Makers and Iron Ship Build CTS.
 Every war ship we build will increase international suspicion, reduce trade and cancel a score of merchant ships.
 To-day the German fleet is at the bottom and they cannot build a fleet fer the next 40 years. America is our cOmrade of the great war. Japan is our special ally. Yet. we are told by our government that we must keep our eye on them and start the same competition in arrnaments with them as we did with Gcrmany-a competition which can only end in one Way-War.
 "This government is controlled by big business. Big business is not national by any means. It is internation
 The British shareholders will sing God Save the King and hoist the Union Jack. The American shareholders will sing Yankee Doodle and hoist the Stars and Stripes
 Each will be the most bigoted patriot in his own country and curse the blasted foreigner.
 At the annual dividend meeting of their international company they will drink and laugh and smoke together as they divide profits out of the amrnuni- tion they sold to all nations to destroy each other.
 The world is in the hands of hard faced men who tell us they must have unemployment, as 1t is the only way to break down not only wage, but to break down the spirit of the workers.
 We shall abolish unemployment more easily in peace than 1t was abolished i'll war, and to a much more useful purpose. We shall all have work and rejoice in our work when we calmly and legitimate ly take our places as equals with all men in tie ordering of our daily tasks.''

WHY EMPLOYERS ARE
 FAVORING WOMEN

Washington, Sept. o-Why many en- ployers favor women workers is shown in a report issued by the United States women's bureau on "Women's Wages i'll Kansas
 During 1920 less than $9 a week was earned by 133 per cent or one-hfth of the women in all Kansas industries, ex- elusive of restaurants.
 When the SIS weekly wage rate IS considered it is found that not a female in a 5 and 10-cent store in the entire state received that amount, and 86.o per cent of all industries pay less than this rate.
 Less than SIS week is earned by 970 per cent of the women in miscellan- eous food manufacturing, and the same condition applies i'll telephones, with 97.6 per cent in laundries with o7.5 per cent in poultry packing with o5.o per cent in miscellaneous manufacturing, with 95.4 per cent; i'll restaurants, with 94S per cent in general mercantile, with 88.2 per cent; in clothing manufactur- ing, with 876 per cent in offices, with 74.1 per cent, and in meat packing with 598 per cent.
 The report tsates that even the low state minimum of $11 a week is far from accepted in the industries of the state.
 The appalling size-nearly one-fiftf of all the women included in the survey of the group receiving less than S0 . week. and the fact that more than one half of the women were receiving less than SIP a week disclose a very seriou: situation for the women workers of the state" says the report.
