crop which probably will break all
records, domestic consumers will not

1t accepted from foreign buyers. Julius
H. Barnes, newly appointed federal
wheat director, declared in a statment
tonight outlining the policies of his ad
ministration. Mr. Barnes termed unsound any gov
ernmental scheme of artificial subsi
dising and thought it quite possible,
with the greater part of Europe look
ing to America for food and the crop
prospects of the allied countries even
poorer than last year, that little in
road, except of a temporary nature,
would be made on the billion-dollar
fund provided by congress to carry out
the farmers' guarantee of 12.26 a
busbcL
Mack Depend ea Harvest.
However, should there be a surplus of
wheat, he said, the national treasury
would be protected as far as possible
in making good the difference between
the guaranteed and market rates by
determination of a world price for the
sale of the surplus. At present the
world price exceeds the government
price. How much of the federal appro
priation would be expended, the direct
or eald. would depend on the harvest,
as would also the government policy in
buying and selling portions of the crop.
Until facts concerning the 1919 rield
are more generally known, he added,
no definite plan of operation could be
Intelligently adopted.
In relation to federal acquisition of
wheat, which he predicted would be on
an extensive scale In enforcing the
farmers' guaranty, particularly if world
prices should be lower than the govern
ment prices, effective June 1. 1920. Mr.
Barnea said three plans were under
consideration: Direct dealing with the
farmers, which would bring the director
Into contact with 1.000.000 persons: pu
chasing through the country grain ex
changes, which would necessitate keep
ing 20.000 accounts, and buying through
the mills, which would reduce the num
ber of clients to 7000.
n'llMi Has Large Powers.
As to sale of government acquired
atocks the director said that congress,
with a clear conception of the difficul
ties of the coming year, had delegated
to the president large powers and dis
cretion which would be at- the service
of the wheat administration. The sale
policy, he said, would be decided by
factors developing within the season
and the license power would be used,

Why Dentistry Is Costly
"Its Human Costs'
Chapter IV.
We have thought bo far of the
money-cost of dentistry.
We shall now think of its human
costs.
A human cost is a cost of human
energy in work, worry, fatigue,
or pain. Dentistry is costly in this
sense, both for the dentist and the
patient.
The dentist who works alone, works long
hours. He can't go as often as he ought to, on
vacations. He is always afraid some other dentist might steal
his clients. He is his own business manager. To the fatigue
of work is added business worry.
He is timid and cautious. He is afraid to make experi
ments and devise new and better methods of work. The
slightest wind may blow down his little tabernacle.
The fear of losing trade is a heavy human cost. It checks
the free growth of his character and the expansion of his
creative ability.
The dentist who works in a big organization is free from
such anxieties. The business he is affiliated with is stable and
secure. His income is guaranteed.. He works with an undis
turbed mind. He gets more rest.
He works in teams with other dentists. Art and science
flourish best in congenial company. Dentist3 working to
gether encourage, instruct, praise and criticise one another.
They compete with one another in excellence of work
manship. But they are free from the pangs of sordid trade
jealousy.
I think I have done a service to the profes
sion of dentistiy and to the public by showing
how to organize dentistry on a nation-wide
scale. Under the E. R. Parker System the
human cost of dentistry has been reduced
through the co-operation of den
tists. Up-to-date dentistry is per
formed for most reasonable prices.

After 7 Years' Search for Relief
From Nervous Indigestion,
Tanlac Ends His Troubles.
fist
"I have been trying for eteven long
years to find something that would
overcome my troubles, but all my ef
forts failed until I got hold of this
Tanlac" said Charles Jackson, who
is employed at the Hillyard Ran road
shops, and who lives at 1202 East First
Ave.. Spokane, while talking with a
Tanlac representative the other day.
"My stomach was in such bad con
dition," continued Mr. Jackson, " that I
would commence to suffer as soon as I
had. finished a meal. My food would
sour on my stomach and gas would
form and bloat me up something aw
ful. Sometimes this gas would get all
up Into my chest and almost choke me
up, and if I tried to get a good breath
I woufd have a sharp pain around my
heart. In fact I couldn't begin to
draw a real full breath. Then, .too, I
would often have a dull, heavy pain in
the pit of my stomach after meals and
would often have a dull heavy pain in
my stomach for two or three days on a
stretch. I was badly constipated all
the time, and had dull headaches near
ly every day, and my appetite was so
poor that I just had to force what little
I did eat. I was so very nervous that
any kind of a noise, even the rustling
of a newspaper would unnerve me, and
I hardly ever got a good night's sleep.
I tried the best I could to keep at
work, but I finally got so weak and
run-down that I would have to go
through a whole winter without hit
ting a lick of work of any kind. -
"One day I read about this Tan
lac, and thought I would give it a
trial and see if it would do me any
good, and I want to say right here that I
by the time I had finished my first
bottle I was feeling a whole lot better.
Then I bought more Tanlac, and just
kept on buying more, and when I had
finished my fourth bottle I found that j
my troubles had about all disappeared. !
I am so well and strong now that I
never lose any time from . my work, I
and no matter how hard I work, I
never have that tired, worn-out feeling
like I did. I have as good an appetite
as 1 ever Had In my lire, and I eat
three big, hearty meals every day, and
everytnmg i eat agrees with me per.
fectly. I am never bothered with gas
forming after meals, and those awful
pains I used to have in the pit of my
stomach are a thing of the past, and
since the gas has stopped forming, I
have no trouble .at all in getting good,
deep breaths. I am free from those
headaches, and am not constipated any
more, and my nerves are in such per
fect condition that I sleep like a rock
every night. - Tanlac is a good medicine,
and I am glad to recommend it to oth
ers." Tanlac is sold in Portland at the
