Seditious Utterances.
To the Editor. The Washington Herald:

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
was astonished yesterday to ind
the following paragraph printed
boldly in the columns of one of our
most respectable local newspapers:
The constant occurring of the i'm
maculate Trotsky has sunk into the
army. He is a great stickler for

ment, and the same word has been
generally passed along In all gov

II this isn't sedition OF the most
barefaced sort. then all the infor-
nation we have received through
cartoon. editorial, and vocal refer
ence in the last four years must
have been false / supposed by this
time that everyone knew that Boil

those prepared to hold them to their
maturity. At their present price. around
65. they yield about 1870 to their
maturity, but their market Is rather
thin. They could not be bought In any
large amounts nor could they be sold
easily. There are only $5.546.s45 of
them outstanding, more than s10.000.-
600 Of them having been purchased In
the open market and cancelled accord
ing to the policy of the former manage
ment of the United States Food Products
Company, which acquired all the assets
and capital stock Of the Distiliers cor
poration in a merger In 1919. The Dis
tillers 5s are secured by deposit OF 95
per cent Of $30.776,606 of It's preferred
stock outstanding and 98 per cent OF
s45.994,720 Of the common stock of the
Distilling Company OF America out

pany controlled by the United States

all the former company's stock. In view
of the fact that two-thirds of the Dis
tillers SIS have been cancelled, It seems

well protected. The Distillers 5s are re-
deemable at los and interest on any OF
their interest dates The best opinion
Is that they will be paid at their
maturity. The United States Food
Products Corporation, in common with
other food concerns, suffered a severe
slump in its business. but conditions
are not bad enough to warrant the de-
cline in the Distillers bonds, according
to specialists In 1920 the company's
net earnings were s2.s9s,2S0, against
s3,354.947 in 1919. Its balance for in
terest, &C, In 1920 was $sS9.eo6. against
s303,048 In 1919. The larger balance
for interest In 1920 WAS due to smaller
writeoffs. In June. 1919. Distillers 5s

Bond Market Broa dcns.

The bond market continued to broaden
yesterday and its dealings were heavier
than those OF Monday. Closing quota

As, Southern Pacific convertible a.,
Southern Railway As, New Haven SIS.
New sYorlS Central 6s, Great Northern

Burlington 6i5s and Pennsylvania and
ST. Louis San Francisco issues. Inter
est was fairly well divided among those
issues, all OF which gained ground. In
dustrial bonds were again active and
strong. particularly sugar Issues, Good

tric 7s which touched 103. Western
Union 61hs were active and Public Utili-
ties issues were widely dealt In. Con-
solidated Gas rs. Bell Telephone 7s and
Northwestern Bon Telephone rs were the
leaders In the public utility group. The
turnover in local traction bonds was
lurge, among the most active being the
Interborough and Hudson and Manhat-
ton issues. Business In foreign govern
ments was unusually large. the heaviest
dealings taking place In the French Ss
and 7hs. The Mexican Issues were
strong on tho report that plan for the
resumption OF payments on Mexico's OK
ternal work had been worked out. The
demand for Liberty and Victory bonds
improved and gains were made In that

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t is that SO many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation 1 have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
SO many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
for sale at all drug stores. advertisement

FARMING In Asia Minor.

If conditions ever become settled in
Asia Minor and the warning factions
sometime become settled, this region
should prove wonderful place for
power farming. There are many sec
tons Of the country that have very
fertile land and many of the people
are essentially agricultural. The wars
which have disturbed the region for
so many years have seriously inter-
fered with farming, though, of course,
1t has given the land rest, which will
be of benefit when farming is again
resumed.
The proximity of the great oil fields
will be instrumental in the supply Of
very cheap fuel and. consequently,
motor machinery of all kinds can be
very cheaply operated. 1t is simply
a question Of peace, education and
promotion.-Farm Implement News.

He. Wasn't Hungry,

A noted evangelist was preaching
in the church of which siX-year-old
Bruce's parents were members. 1t
was Sunday and the evangelist was to
accompany the family home for din
ner. He was a man of large physique
with an appetite reported to be in ac
cord with his size. Bruce. lingering
nearby, as the minister dOnned over
coat and hat, heard him remark to the
head of the family that he was not
hungry. Later, at the dinner, when
the preacher was doing ample justice
to all tempting viands, Bruce aston
ished those assembled at the board
by saying: "Mister-, thought you
wasn't hungry" His remark brought
a hearty laugh from the preacher.

ress in school work. "Growing too
fast" is often true. 1t is most impor-
tant to keep the blood of growing girls
and boys in healthy state.
Pepto-Mangan keeps the blood pure.
