Interference with’ the passage of nerve force from the brain to the body by slightly displaced spinal joints is the primary cause of about all functional and organic dis- turbances in which disease’ finds lodg- ment and develops. An organ or part normally supplied with nerve impulses is in a state of natural resistance to disease. Chiro- practic Adjustments prevent suscepti- bility to infectious and contagious diseases by liberating nerve lines im- pinged at the spine for the transmis sion of vitalizing energy from the brain to every body part.

What is the present dividend rate? A. There have been rumors going the rounds to the effect that: Har- Vester directors are considering the dispursement of a stock dividend around the latter part of the year, but this lacks confirmation, It Is in- teresting to note, however, that the concern is enjoying a rapid improve- ment in business and is in a strong financial position.
