Farm Leaders

NAANVVAAI6VA SVuAVy X1Cl dYQJ
A successful farm leaders stock In
trade apparently consists of a perpet-
ual bellyache.
In order to get his daily bread he
must dispense discomfort.
When federal government gives
millions to wheat farmers as a Christ
mas present the farm leader must
..ook the gift horse in the mouth and
expound upon the terrible condition
Of the teeth.
When the government pays premi-
Inns for hogs the farm leader urges
his followers to strike against the in
justice of accepting anything except
the whole hog.
Why well-to-do farmers like to be
called "serfs" by farm leaders we
never could understand, but such
seekers for support find the system
never fails. Call a farmer q slave and
get his vote, says the professional DO
litician, who has learned to be a bit
more radical in each succeeding CAM
paign, to retain his standing with
hose continually agitated by farm
leaders.
Farm leaders are generally quite
successful as capitalists but delight to
call themselves red radicals. It helps
them retain fat salaries. The system
Is sickening but simple.
Should one say things sarcastic
about hypocrites who lead farmers
deeper into the slough Of despond he
Is branded as an enemy" by the con-
trolled press OF the professional
friends Of the farmer"
supinely we are supposed to sit
from year to year listening to the
queer quacks who call themselves
farm leaders. They are sort Of sacred
cows.
We do not mean to take in toe
much territory in slamming the obvi-
Gus fakes who parade as farm lead
crs. We speak principally Of the So
called farm leadership OF the North
west. the politicians, the strikers, the
obstructionists.
Three great farm organizations
which dominate different parts Of the
United States, the Grange, the Farm
Bureau, the Farmers Union, have con.
structive programs actually helpful te
the farmer. but their good work |,
oSten nullified by braying brick
throwers: opportunists who seel
through strikes. the fermentation O,
riots, the arousing Of support for sci.
fish political purposes. Politicians
who are little better than parasites
attach themselves to movements tol

them. caring not for the damage the,
do to constituted authority. law, thu
moral code, or the morale Of their fol.
lowers. They sob continuously on til,
shoulders Of the farmer with on,
land ou his pocket book, begging 10
votes.

LIVER COMPLAINT HAS GONE
OFT OF FASHION

Cholecystitis * l-e-sist-e y e-tiO
has succeeded liver complaint % q
never failing subject Of bridge table
conversation, now that nearly every
body has learned where and how the
gall-bladder lies.
Many cases Of gall-bladder trouble,
with or without gallstones, present
complications which demand surgical
relief pronto. Some cases, with or
without gallstones, present no trouble
some symptoms for years or perhaps
ever. Between these two groups is
another group OF cases Of chronic in
flammation Of the gall-bladder which
may be successfully treated without
operation.
In a recent contribution to Ameri-
can medicine an Iowa physician, DR..
B. L. Knight OF Cedar Rapids, offers
some practical observations on gall
bladder trouble. So far as the diet
IS concerned DR.. Knight is . butter
and egg man-altho a fat free diet
Is usually advised in the more acute
or severe cases Of gall-sac trouble, the
feeding of butter. egg yolk and other
fats Is actually beneficial in the more
chronic or milder cases, particularly
in the periods between attacks. You
see, the fats in foods cause contrac-
ton of the gall bladder, emptying and
draining it. This might be painful
In the presence Of acute inflamma-
ton, but Is not painful, and IS rather
beneficial, in the more chronic cases.
Years ago "non-surgical hillary
drainage was introduced and widely
used in the conservative treatment Of
chronic cholesystits. This involved
the use Of the duodenal tube-a re-
fined but somewhat extended stomach
tube-thru which the medication was
injected into the duodenum and the
bile specimen was Withdrawn for ex-
animation.
Such drainage is accomplished
practically as we'll in the simpler way
described by DR.. Knight:
The patient must 60 without
food or water four hours before
starting treatment. Then he must
lie on the right side and must not
arise for any purpose within two
hours. He receives every Is min
utes q tablespoonful Of the medi-
cine. No other liquids are allow
ed during the treatment, which
comprises from four to six Of these
quarter hourly doses by mouth.
One holt hour after the last dose
of medicine the patient must take
q slice OF heavily buttered toast
or yolk Of egg.
DR.. Knight thinks the medicine (de-
scribed below merely removes edema
or Doggy swelling from the bile tract.

stances which surround states with

stances which surround states with
both high and low murder ratios.
Maine and Vermont, for example,
are at the bottom Of the list-or the
top as you choose-with only 1.3 MUIR
ders per 100000. The high-homicide
rates among the white population are
concentrated In the southeastern
states and In the mountainous states
with Oklahoma as . connecting link.
The middle west and the far west
have comparatively good ratios. North
Dakota, for example, being classed
among states with q range Of from 2
~ SO murders per 100, 900 Of population.
Beginning with our dour New Eng
land cousins, 1t is easy enough to see
why they do not 60 in strongly for
blood letting. They are proverbially
. canny and self-controlled people.
II they have quarrels and differences
their natural tendency Is to settle
them by peaceful means. These dis
tricts have personal feuds as long
standing and as bitter as any West
Virginia ever knew, yet few Of them
are settled by knife-play or gunfire.
The population is more stable and
more thickly settled. It is an old
state and age, perhaps, induces decor
UNI.
Nevada, on the other hand, is q
young state. The population is COM
i,osed Of more volatile people who
have gone there Of their own enter
prise, bespeaking q certain adventure
someness. It's tradition calls for the
personal settlement Of difficulties in
the most direct and obvious way-or
at least that Is the tradition some Of
the newcomers ascribe to it.
In addition, it has relatively large
Mexican population. proverbially vola-
tile in settling quarrels and classed as
white.
In the mountainous states a rela-
lively large proportion OF the popula-
ton Is Of pure white stock, largely
Anglo Saxon in origin. Many Of these
people really live In past ages. In
some sections Of Tennessee, Kentucky
and West Virginia, for example, the
people have had SO little cultural con-
tact with the outside world that their
language Is more Chaucerian than
American, and they cling to the ideas
ct centuries ago in their personal
habits.
Hence the hills of Kentucky recent
~ reported Is killings on election day.
IL many cases old enemies met at the
polls, bitterness flared and guns set
tied the argument. Tradition calls
for the use Of lethal weapons. These
people rarely fight with their fists.
They will shoot a man before they
will sock him on the nose.
In brief, murder is most common
among people with primitive instincts
Vr those living in primitive surround
ings. The neighborhood attitude has
. lot to do with it. Education and
culture are its bitterest foes.
II this hypothesis is accepted, North
Dakota can take pride in the fact

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Iritis

Please tell me what iritis is and II
It is harmful to the eyes. III. NJ
Observation-Disclosures of the iris.
The iris is the curtain of the eye, that
colored ring around the pupil. The
iris contains pigment which gives the
eye its characteristic color, and muscle
fihres which enable 1t to contract or
dilate the pupil or the size of the aper-
ture thru which light enters the eye.
In albinos the pigment Is absent and
the pinkish hue is due to the reflec-
ton thru the iris Of the red blood YES
sells in the eyeball. All eyes are blue
at birth, becoming augmented after
several weeks. All eyes are brown
when pigmented. Blue" eyes or
gray" eyes or "black" eyes are so on
ly figuratively. The pigment Of
the iris Is brown in all races and
all persons. Inflammation Of the
iris, iritis, is dangerous because the
exudate may cause adhesions Of the
iris to the lens and so impair vision.
This is least likely to happen if the
trouble is promptly treated by the eye
physician.
