MARKET FOR FARM
PRODUCTS is IMPORTANT
(Article No. a.

The big thing for business men
to remember is that the buying
power Of the farmer is the index Of
business prosperity. What makes
this buying power? Nothing on earth
except a profitable agriculture. The
greater the profit in agriculture, the
greater the farmers buying power,
the greater the worth Of the COM
munity and the more prosperous the
PEOPLE win be in town and country.
When the farmer has no money his
huving power is low and business is
dull Banks then have little money
and trade becomes stagnant. One Of
the most important concerns If
business men should be the market
ing of farm products. The town
ought to furnish a reasonably sat
isfactory market for every product
of the farm. Bradford Knapp.

The first fruit to reach the mar
ket in early spring is the strawberry.
Coming 50 early and possessing such
delicious freshness, it is each year
more popular and more eagerly
sought. The strawberry lends itself
in so many different ways to the
making Of delicate wholesome dishes,
both cooked and uncooked, that it is
matter of great concern to both
growers and users to see that the
ever-increasing demands for it are
adequately supplied. This is being
more easily done by changes in the
system of distribution, better trans
portation facilities and constant
improvement in the qualities Of the
market varieties. These, with bet
ter understanding of strawberry
growing among farmers makes

 By this time the boat was among the reefs at the entrance of harbor and power could not be used without rudder, SO the 300 pound anchor was put overheard. Meantime the heavy boom was taken down and lashed astern to be used as an emer- gency rudder. As fast as boards were nailed to it, they were wrenched loose by the waves. The anchor line also broke, and the men aboard labored as best they could with the clumsy emergency rudder and sails, white foam dashing over the boat and breakers on every side. After battling over "A hours, with every man aboard exhausted, as though by a miracle, they reached the harbor. After getting in shape again they made another cast and lost part of their gear.

He returned yesterday from a several months stay in the states and he is fully convinced that Alaska is Uncle Sam's best bet. There are op. portunities here, he says which one does not find in the states, and a mans is safe after he gets it.
 Tony did not go east, but he GOV cred the coast country pretty thor oughly and sized up conditions from all angles. And he is here to say they did not look good to him.
 He spent a week on the Anchor age end, helping Olson and Johnson with their tractor, but the attempt to bring the machine over the trail was finally abandoned, the snow be- ing. too deep for that sort of trans portation |.#I@ .s..t

Physicians the world over recom- mend the inside bath. claiming this is of vastly more importance than outside cleanliness, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, causing Ill health. while the pores in the ten yards of bowels do.

 Just as soap and hot water cleanse and freshen the skin, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the eliminative organs.
 Those who wake up with bad breath, coated tongue. nasty taste or have a dull, aching head, sal low complexion, acid stomach; oth- CTS who are subject to bilious at tacks or constipation, should obtain a quarter pound of limestone phos- phate at the drug store.
