General Jordan Is pleased at the lead hla men have taken In the campaign, and believes they will con

He's Off Watch Him Make A

A Wonderful Transition Takes Place in ihe Work of Farmer

I8AAC L. TOTTEN. When we turn back the pages of his tory to that day not so very long ago. when the occupation of farming was looked upon as beneath the attention of the man with brains, and compare the attitude of those in other lines of endeavor toward the agriculturist at that time and at present, we cannot help marveling at the wonderful trans ition. To us, this new light in which the man on the farm is now held ia most striking. It hardly seems possible that an occupation which has been the sub stance of three fourths of the puna which has been considered fit only for the man whose mind waa so blighted that he could be nothing more than a beast of burden could, be so quickly changed to the most desirable occupation of all an occupation that com mands the attention of our deepest thinkers and beat business executives. In swinging to this opposite attitude, many have gone greatly to the ex treme, and now expect the farmer this same farmer who had no intelligence whatever to grasp and put into operation new Ideas quicker than men do who are engaged in other bus iness enterprises. The farmer must be given time to absorb the meaning and value of scientile agricultural methods. All of us know that it is a most difficult proposition one that taxes our will power to the very limit to break from a habit of long duration. Crop tradition ia, in many instances, a habit that has a very strong hold upon the farmer. Certain methods in farm management have been handed from father to son intact, and tbese methods have become practically permanent The "forward movement of the backward farmer" is a slow process; and, like the reuniting of the north and the south alnce the civil war, It must come about mainly through the younger gen eration, because their minds are more plastic. Practically the whole world has been and now Is vitally Interested in this transforming of the "Hayseeds," "Clodhoppers," and "Rubens" Into scientific agriculturists. The high cost of living problem has been instrumental in directing the attention of all the people to the farm. ' In a report made by a select committee appointed by the United States senate, we find the following causes among many other causes contributing to the advance in prices : "Increased coat of production of farm products by reason of higher land values and higher wages. "Increased demand for farm products and food. "Shifting of population from foodproducing to food-consuming occupations and localities. "Immigration to food-consuming localities. "Reduced fertility of land resulting In lower average production or increased expenditures for fertilization." These causes naturally direct attention to the farm and to the methods of Its handling in order that the conditions be remedied if possible. Our leading magazines as well as our farm magazines and local weeklies and dallies are devoting space to discussions along the lines of successful agricultural methods; thousands of bulletins dealing with experiments conducted at our various agricultural experiment stations are being distributed among the farmers, and our agricultural colleges are putting forth every possible effort to encourage attendance, all to tbe end that the land be given a square deal,, and that the farmer conduct his business according to the best business practices, which It Is believed will not only add to the farmer's profits, but Incidentally reduce the high cost of living. As stated before. It will bo through the younger generations that the greatest changes In agricultural procedure will come about. The prograssive tendencies of the young are. la the main, more highly developed, and every young man or woman desiring

torn ,v .jvi KBp.k

to make the greatest success on the farm can readily see the advantages of thoroughly preparing themselves i for their chosen line of work. They ! must put forth just as great an effort 'to obtain an education in agriculture 'as they would put forth in taking up the study of law, medicine or any other vocation. Some one has said: "Farming offers excellent opportunities for young men and women who wish to fit themselves for the complex business of successfully operating and managing a farm. The successful farmer of tbe future must understand the principles of agriculture as well as the best practice. He must be able to understand and apply methods of permanent soil improvement; selection, Improvement, management and sanitary care of live stock and poultry; production Of clean, wholesome milk and butter; planting and care of orchards, small fruits and garden crops." And it naturally rollowa that the best source of such information is the Agricultural College and tbe Experiment Station. The success attained by those who have taken up the Agricultural college work is a sufficient recommendation for its value. Wherever we find a farmer who has had the proper training along the lines of his chosen business no matter whether that training has been on the farm or at college we find him giving a good account of himself. We find him running his farm as though it were a factory which it is and, in order to obtain the maximum prolts from his factory, he bandies it according to the best methods of factory management. Every phase of the business of farming should be given the same close at tention that is given the manumacturing of binders, hay-loaders, manure spreaders and gasoline engines by the farm implement manufacturers. It is true, of course, that farming can stand a greater amount of waste and careless managing that any other business and yet yield a profit; in fact no other business could stand the strain that the farm does. But, if we may be permitted to prophesy, it will not always be that way,, and the sooner the agriculturist shapes his business methods to conform with economy, the sooner will he be equipped to meet this new farm co-operative- idea that is looming up In the middle distance. All farmers, of course, are not endowed with the same degree of intelligence, and it ia out of the question to expect all of them to rush instanter to every new idea that pops into ex

istence; yet we can feel that the farmer of today is working more toward a well deined purpose his aim is to do less work that requires muscle and brawn, but more brain work. There have always been successful farmers. Even during that period when many were compelled to mortgage their homes and land, there were some who prospered. They possessed business sagacity and would, no doubt, thrive in any business. It has not been many years since the mediocre farmer began to stick his head above water, but now he is doing fairly well and commences to feel encouraged, so give him elbow room and plenty of time to think and he will be a factor in doubling the present general aver age per acre of wheat and corn.

A Permanent Chronic Although those may dispute it who have not tried it, yet thousands of others, who speak from personal experience, assert that th6re is a permanent cure for cl.ronio constipation. Some testify they were cured for aa little as fifty cents, years ago, and - that the trouble never came back on them, while others admit they took several bottles before a steady cure was brought about. The remedy referred to is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It hta been on the market for over a quarter of a century and has been popularised on lta merits, by one person telling' another. The fact that Its strongest supporters are women and elderly people the ones most persistently constipated makea it certain that the claims regarding- It as a permanent cure for constipation have not been exaggerated.

No doubt a very great ptr cnt of our lady readers would tell about the same story if they were to speak free-: ly la regard to their health. Tired out; nerves worn to a shred; no health or strength. Not really sick enough to be in bod. but entirely too sick to at-; tend to their ordinary; every day duties with any satisfaction and too elck to take any pleasure In life. Such women do not get any sym pathy from the ordinary person for often they look like the proverbial picture of health and should they say anything about their paina and aches they are laughed at and told: "You are not sick; you Just imagine it," and thus they drag out their weary lives' hoping against hope that some of these days they may find a real specialist who can understand their case and cure them. Such women will enjoy reading the following letter from Mrs. Robert E. Rice: Muncie, Indians, January, 1912. I wish the public to know that after suffering for several years of Female' Trouble and Prolapsus, and after, try-, lng a number of our leading home Doctors I went to Doctor Stewart, now of Richmond. Indiana, and received lm mediate relief and after six months treatment I feel that I am almost entirely cured, and do all my own housework now, but before taking this treatment I could scarcely do ; any thing. I can highly recommend: hla methods of treatment to Buffeting humanity and would gladly answer any letters of personal Inquiry as to my case before and after taking his treat ment. . , Respectfully.

The generous offer of free consultation, examination and free treatment, ' the only charge being made for the actual medicine used, made , hy the Doctor Stewart Company offers many sick people an opportunity to regain' their last despair of health; when others have experimented and failed. If your case is incurable you will be told frankly, and not a penny of your money will be accepted under any conditions. Consultation Is strictly confidential. : You may rest assured that not one word . would be said regarding your case. .
