When trade is dull, or just after some special season of activity, some businessmen stop advertising, or nearly so. In that respect they are as foolish as would be the farmer who should refuse to Ifertllize his soil until the ground improved in quality. The farmer fertilizes his farm that it may be more productive and the shrewd businessman advertises liberally in dull times to make his business mare productive. In truth, the businessman who thus advertises does not know what slack times are as compared with the merchant that advertises only when times are good.
Hog cholera is being placarded in Benspn county. Any farm where the cholera has broken out is marked with a flaming red placard which -reads: “Hog Cholera! Keep Out! When necessary to drive or walk through these yards you paust clean your shoes, the horses’ feet and the wheels of vehicles by washing them with a 2 per cent water solution M a reliable disinfectant.” A number of cases of hog cholera have been discovered in the southern part of Benton county within the past few days. J. W. McFarland, the county agent, is working hard to eradicate the disease. He estimates that there are fully twenty infected herds in the county. It is probable that a bill making it compulsory to placard all cholera farms will be presented to the state legislature when it convenes in January.

Covering Up Weakness of Tariff Law' By Big War Tax.
Monticello Herald. “War Tax Measures in Hands of House” was the headline on this subject Tuesday morning. If the bill passes it will be the first war tax ever levied in this country in time of peace. Other countries have often been at war, but the only effect on this country was to stimulate industry and enhance American prosperity. Now it becomes necessary to levy an internal tax to raise a hundred million dollars. The pretext is that the war has caused a deficit in the government revenues from imports—a gauzy subterfuge when it is remembered that the deficit began long before the note of war was sounded. Up to July 1 of this year Europe was at peace, but the shrinkage in revenues at U. S. ports was already over $30,000,000, though imports had iincreased over $100,000,000 in the ten months preceding. In August, notwithstanding the war, the imports at the port of Boston exceeded the imports of August one year ago by more than $3,700,000 and yet the revenues derived from these imports fell short of the preceding August $682,000, showing that the deficit was due to the decreased rate of duties instead of a falling off in imports. Now the people are to be asked to make up these deficits from their own pockets urtder the guise of a war necessity in time of peace. Did anybody ever hear of such an experience in this country under a protective tariff law? And all this at a time when industry is protected and labor is out of employment by reason of the same foolhardy reduction of duties Which has brought about the deficit in government revenue*. j This Is enough to make voters realize that after all this country fares best under a protective tariff. And when they further consider the desperate competition American industries will have to face when the war in Etirope ia over, they will surely not wait till a presidential year to begin the work of averting the disaster whieh is Surely impending.
Russia’s manifestation of friendship for the United States expressed in her announced intention of signlhg a peace commission treaty may lead to negotiations for a new treaty of commerce and navigation between the two countries to j replace the one abrogated during the Taft administration.
