D 36 AT VAR R PO An Outsider’s Viewpoint ‘(Edttorial in Todd County Argus, Long Prairie, Minn.) UR attitude toward the League at this time is one of benevo- lent neutrality. We haven't any objection to the farmers’ organizing for mutual better- ment. We believe the business men of this or any other agricultural town would make a mistake by combatting the idea. We are quite sure if we were & farmer we would become a member. : If we understand the League aright ‘1t is designed for the purpose of giving the farmer more control over the mar- keting and distribution of his product than he now has; to enable him to add to his bank account.a portion at least of the sum now being gobbled up by the middleman. We can’t see anything . wrong with that. ] s 3 % If the farmer can make more money than he now is it will certainly profit every business man serving the farmer trade. With more money in his pocket the farmer will buy more of the neces- sities, and many more of the luxuries of life. Contrary to the popular belief not many farmers are mail order house patrons. The per cent of them addict- ed to this habit is small. Were he earning more money than he.now is the per cent would be still further re- duced. In other words more money than ever would flow to the local busi- ness man through the ordinary chan- nels of trade. The League presents . figures to show—and we have never ..seen them controverted—that while the farmer is today getting a high price for his product he is in fact getting only 33 1-3 per cent for his product what the consumer eventually pays for it. The other 66 2-3 per cent goes into the pockets of the middlemen and the grafting manipulators of food products. - It is to so control the avenues of mar- keting and distribution that.a portion at least of this 66 2-3 per cent will be returned to the producer—the farmer —that the League is bending its ener- gies. To caontrol the avenues of marketing and distribution it is being organized _as a political organization for the rea- gon that it believes it can best accom- plish its program by the enactment of friendly legislation — legislation that will give it state-owned terminal ele- . vators, state-owned flour mills, state- owned packing plants and the like. It believes that such utilities now owned privately are inimical to the interests of the producer—the farmer. It pre- fers to have these institutions state- owned rather than owned co-operative- 1y by the farmers because of the diffi- culty in raising sufficient funds through co-operative companies, and for the further reason that they believe such Institutions will contribute to the pros- perity of all of the people of the state i and should therefore be built by the .people of the state and owned by all of them. ‘We don't know that the program will work. Much of it embodies the untried. We believe it" is worth a trial. If it fails, or if the League shall abuse ‘its political power; if it shall become encumbered with broken- down politicians, or shall become a class movement which does not con- tribute to the general welfare it will yass off the face of the earth and it will not greatly delay its going. Much of the opposition to it develops from the fact that it is & political organiza- tion. Politicians are notoriously sensi- tive when they think some one is try- ing to poach upon their . preserves. sWere it not for the fact that it is a political crganization it would attract fio material opposition. Of that we are convinced. That being true we don't credit all of the opposition with sin- cerity. ‘We are Interested primarily in good government. .If the farmer can give it 40 us we will take off our hat to him. The fate of the professional politician doesn’t interest us particularly. Neither does it cost us any anguish to see the farmer give up $16 to become a League _member. It costs money to carry on any organization work. The fact that the farmer is paying $16 in this case is an indication to us of his sincerity of purpose, and that he means busi- ness.

Any Woman Who Tires Easily, is Nervous or Irritable, or Looks Pale, Haggard And Worn Should Have Her Blood Examined for Iron Deficiency. Administration of Nuxated Tron in Clinical Tests Gives Most Astonishing Youthful Strength and Makes Women Look Years Younger. ““There can be no healthy, beautiful, rosy cheeked women without Iron,” says Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York phy- sician and medical author. ‘In my recent talks to physicians on the grave and seri- ous consequences of iron deficiency in the lood of American women, I have strong- ly emphasized the fact that doctors should prescribe more organic iron—nuxated iron —for their nervous, run-down, weak, hag- gard-looking women patients. Pallor means anaemia. The skin of the anaemic ‘woman is pale, the flesh flabby. The mus- cles lack tone, the brain fags and the memory fails, and often they become weak, nervong, irritable, despondent and melancholy. When the iron goes from the blood of women, the roses go from their cheeks. 3 In the most common foods of America, the starches, sugars, table syrups, can- dies, polished rice, white bread, soda crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti, tapioca, sago, farina, degerminated corn- meal no longer is iron ¢ to be found. Re- fining processes have removed the iron of Mother Earth from these impoverished foods, and silly meth- ods ~ of home cookery, by throwing down the waste pipe the water in which our vegetables are cooked, are respon- ible for another grave iron loss. ‘“Therefore, if you wish to preserve your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe old age, you must supply the iron deficiéncy in your food by using some form of organic iron, just as you would use salt when your food has not enough salt, “As I have said a hundred times over, organic iron is the greatest of all strength builders. If peo- ple would only throw away patent medicines_ and nauseous concoc- tions and take simple nuxated iron, I am convinced that the lives of thousands of persons might be saved who now die every year from pneumonia, grippe, consumption, kidney, liver, heart trouble, etc, The real and true cause which started their disease was nothin more mor less than a weaken condition brought on by lack of iron in the blood. “On account of the peculiar nature of . without doing you any good. You don't get the strength out of it, and as a conse- quence you become weak, pale and sickly looking, just like a plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work -or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five grain tablets of Nuxated Iron three times per day after meals for two weeks, then test your strength again and see how much you have gained. I have seen doz- ens of nervous, run-down people who were ailing all the while double their strength and endurance and entirely rid themselves of all symptoms of ‘dyspepsia, liver and other troubles in from ten to fourteen days’ time simply by taking iron in the proper form. And this, after they had in some cases been doctoring for months without obtaining any benefit. But don’t Bro o - take the old 4 forms of re- duced iron, iron acetate, or tincture of iron simply to save a Dr. Ferdinand King, New York physician and aythor, tells plysicians that they should prescribe more organic iron—Nuzated Iron— for their patients—Says anaemia—iron de- ficiency—is the greatest curse to the heallh, strength, vitality and beauty of the modern American Woman.—Sounds warning against nse of melallic iron which guch great confidence they offer to forfeit $100.00 to any charitable few . cents. The {iron demanded by Mother Nature for the red coloring matter in the blood of her children is, alas! not that kind of iron. You must take iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated to do you any good, other- wise it -may prove worse than use- less. “I have used Nuxated Iron widely in my own practice in most severe aggravat- ed conditions with unfailing results, I have induced many other physicians to give it a trial, all of whom have given me most surprising reports in regard to its great power as a health and strength build- er. ‘““Many an athlete and prize fighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance and filled his blood with iron before he went into the affray; while many anot}ler has gone down in inglorious defeat sim= ply for the lack of iron.” Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Sur- geon of St. Elizabeth’'s Hospital, New York City, said: “I have mnever be- fore given out any medical information or advice for publication as I ordinarily do not believe in it. But so many Ameri- can women suffer from iron deficiency with its attendant ills—physical weak- ness, nervous irritability, melancholy. indigestion, flabby, sagging muscles, etc,, etc.—and in consequence of their weaken- ed, rundown condition they are so liable to contract serious and even fatal dis- eases, that I deem it my duty to .advise all’ such to take Nuxated Iron, I have taken it myself and given it to my patients with most surprising and satisfactory results.” And those who wish quickly to increase their strength. power and endurance will find it a most remarkable and wonderfully ef- fective remedy.”’ . NOTE—Nuxated Iron, which as pre- scribed and recommended above by physicians in such a great variety of cases, is not a patent medicine nor secret remedy, but one which is well known to druggists and whose iron constituents are widely prescribed by eminent physicians both in Europe and America. Unlike the older inorganic iron products it is. easily assimilated, does not injure the teeth, make them black; nor upset the stomach; on,the contrary, it is a most potent remedy in nearly all forms of indigestion as well as for mnervous, run down con- ditions.
