 The interior banker has an impor- tant part to play in the develop ment of our import trade. as well as that of our exports. Our depend ence upon other countries for food stuffs and raw materials grows con- stantly greater with the increase in our population and the. productive 1 capacity of our industries. i In order to provide a sustained market for our surplus manufac- ty1r . increasing supply of many com modities which are not produced in I the United States, or which are pro- duced in such small volume as to be entirely inadequate for our require ments.
 The interior importer must have facilities for buying these com modities in distant lands. He may desire help in locating sources of raw materials, advice regarding re- liable foreign exporters and market conditions and on how he may es-; tablish the necessary import credits through his local and international bankers
 If our foreign trade is not 10 suf- fer through inadequate financing.i we must give thought to some form of long term credits in order to sup-i plement the operations of the inter, national banks and to make liquid, the frozen long-term credits in for eisn markets. To meet this situa-i tion the Edge law was recentlyi passed. This law gives us, for the first time in our history, financial organizations for the express pur-i pose of assisting foreign trade through long term investments. The original Federal Reserve Act au-3 thorized the establishment of branches by our national banks in foreign countries. The Edge law goes one step further in providing for the information of these foreign investment banks under Federal charter A most important provi- sion of the Edge law is that which permits corporations formed under its provisions to issue their own! notes and debentures for sale to in- vestorS
 The interior banker, therefore, plays a very definite part in edu- eating his community in the .rela-i ton which our overseas commerce bears to domestic prosperity and ip pointing out the desirability of such securities in order to make possible a continuous and increasing flow of! foreign orders.

pany of New York
 A s a result of the war, this
 N country has been forced in to many new industrial and financial activities that reach out into every foreign coun- try, activities which affect the vel fare of the smaller communities nearly as much as they do those of the larger cities. Manufa ctur- CTS. in small towns throughout the United States have become inter ested in the possibilities of for eign markets, and they naturally are looking to their local banks to advise them regarding their foreign trade problems both actual and po- tent1al. We believe that the time has come for the interior bank to realize that the biggest thing it has to sell is service, and that one of It's greatest opportunities IS to aid in . the development of American foreign trade.
 We have learned by recent ex- perience that the factories of Amer bca are today so huge and their out put at full capacity is so great that the domestic market cannot regu- Arly absorb it. It is only by a constant flow of overseas trade that we can run full time all the time. To do less than that means homes In American in which the breadwin- ner is out of work.
 Increased orders from foreign countries tend to change the sea- sonal demands to year round de- mands. The manufacturer who has a market for his goods in South America, for instance, possesses a great advantage, because the sea sons there are exactly the reverse of our own. And so, because the markets of all the world are great CT and steadier than the markets of any one country, the American man. ufa cturer and merchant must culti- vate the foreign field, and the in- ferior bank, in cooperation with the International bank, must be pre- pared to offer facilities necessary for the prompt and efficient han ding of foreign trade transactions.

Run DOWN And SICKLY
PEOPLE NOW REJOICING
RELIEF AFFORDED AT LAST
THROUGH THE UNTIRING EF-
FORTS OF RENOWNED AU-
TH0RITY

According to w. A. Garren, noted
authority on health, fully forty per
cent fthe people today are afflicted
with what is commonly called run
down condition. The main sysptoms
or warnings" of this complaint he
says are lack of vitality and energy
nervousness, irritability, exhaustion
stomach trouble, Indigestion, consti-
patton, impure blood, weak back, head
aches, etc.
These ailments are caused by i'm
proper nourishment which is the d.
rect result of an abused stomach and
clogged up intestines, liver, and kid
neys. Instead of getting all the
health giving qualities in the food you
eat your system is starving. That's
why you are weak, thing and sickly.
When you feel yourself unable to
do the things which require strength
and endurance; if you are tired all
the time, no energy, nervous and de-
spondent, you should use Garren's
Tonic which is creating so much in
terest from coast to coast is made
from those natural health giving herbs
which enable your stomach to digest
the food you eat, and vitalize your
blood and nerves with the stamina
which makes people strong.
Garren's Tonic is sold in Viroqua by
C. F. Dahl, in Stoddard by A. u

JOHN LEEMEETs AWFUL DEATH
In an Explosion of Gasoline He was
Horribly Burned

The shocking news was told about
town last Friday evening that John
Lee, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Lee and
a young married man of Portland
town, had been badly burned in the
afternoon of that day by an explosion
of gasoline.
The facts of the terrible tragedy, as
near as we can gather, and which
were told by the injured man were:
Friday noon Mr.. Lee started fire in
the furnace at his home then went out
to work The day was cold and wet,
so he did not remain out long. Upon
returning to the house, he removed his
Shoes and went into the basement to
stir up the fire. He found it very low
so took what he supposed was the
kerosene can and threw a quantity in
the furnace. He evidently got hold
of the wrong can and threw gasoline
onto the Goals instead of kerosene.
An explosion took place Immediately
and the bottom was blown from the
can and the burning oil was thrown
all over Mr.. Lee. He ran to the floor
above and his wife assisted him in re-
moving his clothing, or what was left
of them. His overalls were almost en-
tirely consumed, so was his underwear
below the waist. A leather vest pro-
tected his chest. His shirt was ablaze
when emoved and was thrown out on
the porch where the fire consumed it
and also burned some of the wood
work. Clothes that were hanging
near where he made his dash for the
upper floor, caught fire and for time
the house was in danger. A buffalo
nickle dropped on the floor from Lees
pocket and was so hot it burned a
small hole in the floor.
Mr.. Lee was terribly burned about
the legs, feet and hips, and suffered
excruciating pain. Medical aid was
summoned right away and the injured
man was relieved as much as possible
from the suffering. Carl Homstad,
A. w. Hankee and Hans Sveum, be-
sides many of his relatives watched
over him Friday night and every lit
tie while gave him opiates to relieve
the pain. He talked freely most OF
the night and was of the opinion that
he would pull through. Saturday
morning he was taken to the St.Marys
hospital at Sparta and in the after.
noon went to sleep and slept until
about 9 o'clock Sunday morning when
he passed away.
Funeral took place yesterday and ne
was buried in the Moen cemetery,

Here is a
Way for
You

Says You May Depend on the 'WBU'
Mr.. Leigh Toland, Pres "WBU"
Lacrosse, Wisconsin.
Dear Mr.. Toland:-Upon complet-
ing my course at your school | must
say a word of appreciation for the
many good things which the Wiscon-
sin Business University has to offer.
The paramount point with the school
is, that when the management says
the "WBU" does, or does not do a
certain thing, you may be sure it does
exactly as it says. / have found the
course to be thorough and up-to-date
in all respects. The untiring efforts
of the instructors, combined with a
fair amount of concentration on the
part of the student, viii result in a
training unsurpassed in point of bust
ness methods used in every office TO-
day.
In conclusion, must say that any
one who is seeking a good business
education, will do well to consider
seriously the ~WBU'', and give it a
chance to prove the sincerity of its
statements.

Wisconsin Tobacco Market

Edgerton, Wis, Oct. IL, 1927
The tobacco section had its frost
nights lastweek. The tobacco, how
ever, was safely in the sheds, and no
damage was done. The weather changes
from moist with downpours to rapid
reactions with clear weather and good
breeze have continued over this area.
The early tobacco is benefitting, by it,
and it shows in the color fthe leaf.
1t is gonig to be bright and of light
hue.
The later tobacco is coming well
enough. Experience is proving that
while damage has entered sheds where
crowding was practical and where no
intelligent care was given to the hang
ing tobacco, the crop as whole is
pulling through the curing in better
shape than many predicted it would.
The temperature is again rising, and
if sufficient days of warm, clear days,
usually with US in this part of the
country during the second half of Oc-
tober, also is with US this year, the
crop stands good chance of making
good.
1t is true that the total of large and
sound binders in the crop may not
come up to the expectations of one
period during the growing season in
the early part of September, but if the
large and sound part of the cigar leaf
is handled right in the shed, and at
stripping and bundling time, there is
going to be pretty fair showing for
the 1921, just the same.
To date no effect at starting o buy
ing movement has been reported.
We have been informed that the
story has gone that Wisconsin binder
leaf fthe 1920 packing has sold for
z and cents per pound to manufac-
turers. This, of course, is absolutely
false. No such statement has ever
gone out from any well informed
course. Stemmers have been, and are,
taking stemming tobacco in the bum
die of the 1920 at figures of 6 cents
and batter.
A better tone in the movement of
old tobacco out of storage was present
during the first week of October, IL
cars of cases were shipped out from
this point. The interests in need of
the right kind of binder leaf should
not run the risk of too great conser-
walton in procuring the available stock
of 1920. Somebody may be disap-
pointed at not providing before the
supply of this type of goods, which
admittedly is not especially large, is
taken by those who practice the early
bird" theory. Only cars of bundles
were received during the first week of
0ctohpr
