So there can A be too much talk against the high cost of living. The present price inflation is undoubtedly a disease. But the disease can't be cured by talk, least of all by panic talk. True, a general business smash would also smash the II. C. L., but it would be like removing a rash from Undo Sam's epidermis, and driving the poison into his vitals. That is to say, the present ailment is preferable to general prostration, and a general prostration is what panic talk invites. For good times are good times, and while the consumer has to pay more, if lie is a producer himself, he has more to pay with. Had times, are not only bad times, but are largely psychological. As far as physical conditions are concerned, here and elsewhere, there never was less reason for the cry of wolf. The crop outlook is excellent, every one is employed, new industries are ojiening up, pay rolls are being established. The campaign against price inflation is desirable and necessai'3', but it is neither desirable nor necessary, to al low this campaign to grow into hysteria. The process of deflation must be gradual. If it isn't, there is danger of the entire works crumbling like a pack of cards. So it is well for the individual to go slow on the "rocks ahead" propoganda. There are no rocks, but economically a rock in the mind may be as destructive as a rock in the channel. Ideas are contagious, and we repeat hard times are largely psychological. The danger is not that one or two chronic glooms may see a mirage of disaster, but that the mirage may be seen by everyone at one time. It was .T. P. Morgan who said a bear on the United States was' doomed to failure. This is truer today than ever before. Business this year is certain to be better than last year, if the people refuse to succumb to the panic of fear. Don't spend money foolishly, but don't hoard it. Keep a balance in the bank, but don't overdraw your pessimism account. There are no real dangers ahead half as serious as the danger of losing your head entirely. RipplingRhi)niG$ FORSAKEN THERE are no toilers willing to stayiiipon the farm; to town they all are, drilling; the hayfield has no charm. I hear the farmers wailing as they go forth to plow; their standbys all are failing, there are no hired, men now. The yeoman waves his money, and cries: "Who'll work for me?" And people think it funny his "dire distress to see. The farmer seeks the village, im ploring husjvy men to help him with his tillage and raise big crops again. He offers princely wages, he'd throv a chroino in, and all the village sages just.sit around and grin.. The farmer's rolling acres won't roll up ample crops; his money lias no takers, no helper with him stops. There is no stalwart bumpkin to. help him bale, his wheat, he cannot thresh the pumpkin or shuck the sugar beet. The population's shifting to towns, we plainly see, and whither arc we drifting, my friends, when such i hings be? If I were only younger I'd farm a strip of loam, and help to thwart the hunger that threatens every home. The farm lands of the nation must grow string beans and oats, or we shall have star vation, mid lose our valued goats. Why Wariamaker Reduced Prices l'HIt.AllKUMlIA '"Althoimh 1 firmly nllirm that people luivo not ins; these duvs of liisih prices, I woul:l inir these days of hit: liprices, I would tell everyone to sit tiuht for a whilo and Avail until thiuu's liuve calmed down before Hpendinir all that they have."

The merchant paused n moment in deep thnu:ht.

Mordoff & Woolf Phone 9 22-24-26 South Fir Dependable Through Thick Above everything else you want dependability built into the grain binder you buy.' You want your binder to go in to your grain fields, no matter what the conditions may be, and cut the grain with the least possible loss of time and grain. We are selling the John Deere Grain Binder because we know it will give you that dependable binder service which makes it a profitable investment. From the bottom up it's a ietter-built grain binder. Bigger nd stronger roller-bearing wheels; sheavier one-piece main frame widely Japped and hot-riveted together; strong rigid platform; three packers instead of two, assuring better bundles in all kinds of grain these are just a few of the features that make it the better binder. Come and see this binder. You can't make a better binder investment. , ' HUBBARD BROS. ; Established Before the Town. and Thin Another feature you will appreciate on this binder is the easily-operated bundle carrier. No effort to hold it in receiving position or to dump it. Because the teeth rise out of the stubble the instant you start to return the carrier, it's exceptionally easy to bring it back to receiving position. And it's no trick to keep this carrier always in easy-working order simple adjustments are provided to accom plish this. The Quick Turn Tongue Truck adds much to the effectives work of the John Deere. The wheel turn faster than the pole, making; clean, square corners possible. Be cause the truck axle is flexibly mounted, both wheels hold to the; ground no matter how rough the field may be. This keeps the binder running straight, and takes of the side draft from the horses.
