TARIFF TAX $155 ON FARMERS’BILL THIS YEAR, CLAIM Why Farmers Threaten New Political Revolt Is Explained, By JOHN CARSON l imes Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.—The Kansas farmer gets $1.55 this year in increased prices because of the tariff. Then the same tariff turns right around ands from the Kansas farmer $252.40 in increased prices for the things he must buy. If that is not gold-bricking the farmer, then the days of gold-bricks are gone forever. And if - not tell why tfye Kansas farmer is threatening political revolution and denouncing Wall St., then you will never understand, according to figures compiled by the Fair Tariff League. They are based on the best possible consideration for the Kansas farmer. He produces 200,000 bushels of spring wheat and the tariff promised him 820,000 on It. Tariff Boosts Prices Os course he did not collect. He produced 1,378,159 pounds of wool and the tariff gave him $175,026 on that. He produced 7,942 tons of sugar beets and the tariff gave him $41,787 on that. He produced 72,948 pounds of flaxseed and the tariff gave iiim $19,885 on that. The total promised him was $256,698. But the fanner of Kansas has to buy something. He buys flour, wool, sugar, flaxseed and lemons, for example. The tariff on these at lowest figures cost him as follows: Flour, $82,643; wool, $715,688; sugar, $1,504,102; flaxseed, $70,825; lemons, $82,613. The total tariff cost on farm products was $2,455,901. 41 Million, the Cost Then the farmer of Kansas pays 86.198,225 in tanff on heavy steel products, $8,264,300 on light steel products and $24,793,000 on general store merchandise. That is not all, bul practically all the cost that can be discovered. The Kansas farmer pays $41,711,426 for the $256,698 the tariff gives him. Taking the Kansas farmer and the city consumers of Kansas and they all pay $86,838,269 for the $256,698 given Kansas by the tariff. And the story in every farming State is the same.

Good HealthlnHappyOld Age

THE chief concern of elderly people is their health, and that is best assured by regular daily bowel movement. There is no truth, however, in the notion that because you are old you need a “strong physic.” In fact, just because you are old a mild laxative is better for you. The trouble with purges and cathartics and physics is that they shock the system and weaken it and make the muscles of digestion flabby. Dr. G. H. Brown, V. S., of Frederic, Wis., nearly wrecked his stomach with purgatives. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin restored his health, as it did Mrs. J. S. Etheridge’s, of Milledgeville, Ga.
