In one sense this is true, but in another sense not. While his means come from the farm, much of those means must be ex- changed for commodities that do not come from the farm. The farmer must wear clothes, and these must come from the manu- facturers and the merchants. cannot make. He must have farm implements and these he He must have wagons and buggies, ang, ii he is to enjoy life as his city brothers, automobiles, and the prices of these articles are soaring in company with the products of his farm. * But what we started out to remark was that the farmers can in large measure meet and overcome the effects of the high prices of farm imple- ments by a well-planned system of co-operation. though this plan will have to be adopted. And it looks now as The demand for war supplies has diverted the energies of many large factories, and a shortage of farm implements is freely predicted. In this event co-operation in the purchase and use of the more costly of farm tools will prove not only practicable but profitable. There are many tools used on the farm, where one lmp‘lement may be made to do the work of several farms. Every farmer knows what they are, and it is unnecessary to enumerate them. We merely would impress the fact that wherever these can be owned and operated co-operatively, it is not only economy to do so, but it is also of real benefit to the country in this crisis. Every ounce of energy that can be diverted from the manufacture of farm supplies can be devoted to the manufacture of government supplies. Every community in our country should give this matter serious con- sideration this fall, while planning for that record crop that will be seeded next year. The coal operators, after conceding that coal can be sold at the es- tablished prices, seem inclined to put it up to Mr. Garfield to demonstrate that it can be mined at those figures. Many people are beginning to wonder if the government price fixing commission has lost sight of the consumer’s point of view. After this war is ended, the title ‘‘Colonel” will no longer stamp a man as necessarily from Kentucky. Many a boy who was pronounced ‘‘the picture of his dad’ has been known to overcome that handicap. Russia may have let the German army into Riga merely as an experi- ment in cold storage.

D.) ‘The general conclusions of the latest Medical Scientists proves that drinking plenty of pure water both between meals and with one’s meals is beneficial to health. For ‘a great many years it was the erroncous opinion of many medical men and the public generall that the habit of drinking water witl the food was harmful to digestion. It has now been proven by means of the X-rays and actual tests upon many healthy young men that the drinking of amounts of water with meals is often beneficial. Therefore if you want to keep healthy drink plenty of pure water (not ice water), both with your meals and between meals.
