tragic reality of inflation. ' . ' : There are a few things, in these tumultuous days that retailers hope the consumers will keep in sight. Probably most important is the fact that progressive retailers are opposed to rising prices as wholeheartedly as any one. Modern ditiibutors operate on a high-volume, low-price basis. This is rav'cularly; true of chain jstores which supply life's necessities to millions.

:" Another thing, to remember is that; in the long run competition in, the. free market is the only sure road. back to stability 'and' plenty. The United States has a. highly competitive vietail distribution system. Chains, supermarkets, independents and others, are working to get. their, share cf the business. Under these circumstances, resistance, by retailors to unjustified, price increases is autoniatic and, relentless. These favorable factors cannot control inflation. But they mean that consumers will get as fair a break as possibles-far, better than ever before under like conditions in t.hfi hilstnw of this or nnv oVior fnntitvv

RISING FARM COSTS LEVEL INCOMES LAFAYETTE, Ind., Nov. 11. Substantial increases in farm income were realized in Indiana

from 1939 to 1943, but after that the bird lays. The

date rising production costs re

suited in a leveling off of the net mouth.

SHARErlNCOME FARMS Men without sufficient capital j to own or rent a farm should

consider the possibilities of making, an income-sharing agreement with a person who has a fully equipped farm, advises Purdue University agricultural economists.

The fading gradually

income, it is revealed in a re- works toward the tip of the port, received recently by Purdue beak. Those of the loafer stay University, from the U. S. De- yellow, partment of Agriculture, Bureau

of Agricultural Economics. The net income per farm rose, from $737 in 1939 to $2,435 in 1943. The income leveled off, however, in 1944 with the average being $2,280 per, farm, due to higher operating expenses and smaller governmental payments. Production expenses rose moderately from 1939 to 1940, a rise of eight percent, hu: after that period the prices for commodities and services entering, ins the farmers.' costs advanced sharply. By 1944 expenses were, 182 percent of the 1939 costs whicfy is approximately double. However, the corresponding change in gross income more than doubled for the same period, increasing from $1,721 to $4,101 for the latter year. The economists pointed out

that items in cost of. production

differed, considerably in percentage of. increase after 1939.

Purchased feed costs almost tripled, money, spent for fertilizer more than tripled, and maintenance of motor vehicles in creased about one-half. Other cost items which showed a steady increase were hired labor, which rose, to half again the pre-war

figure, and maintenance of buildings, which increased, about the same amount. Two costs which did not increase were taxes and mortgage interest rates. Taxes in 1944 on land were one percent below 1939 and interest paid on mortgages dropped 14 percent as farm mortgages were paid off or reduced. .

SEASQNING LUMBER Farmers who plan io use their native, timber for construction on their farms should follow proper piling practices and length of time for sufficient seasoning. Aedquate seasoning is necessary for a good tight, job, says T. E. Shaw, Purdue University extension forester.

Doctor's Discovery FOR FLUSHING KIDNEYS Backache, loss of pep, getting up nights, and headache are often caused by nothing more than improper kidney action due to. excess acid in the urine. Kidneys are one of Nature's ways of removing impurities from the blood. And when these impurities back up, trouble may start. So if you have these troubles, give your kidneys and bladder a good flushing out by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. It works on the kidneys to flush them out, increasing the flow of urine to help relieve that excess acidity and ease that burning when you pass water, helps that bladder irritation that gets you up nights. Made of 1 6 herbs, roots, vegetables, and balsams, Swamp-Root is absolutely non habit forming. Caution: take as directed. For free trial supply, send to Dept. Z, Kilmer & Co., Inc., Box 1255, Stamford, Conn. Or get full-sized bottle of SwampRoot today at your drugstore;

We were admitted to the presence of Caesar . . ,

IT was the very next day that the Christian lawyer was arrested. And Colonel Cornelius had forbidding news for Marcus and me.. "Caesar has ordered all of us to appear before him. We may all end in the mines!" , Entering Camp Mars, we drove on to the praetorium and entered Fascus' quarters. He came almost at once and, with scant greeting said, "The Emperor wishes you to go to his cabinet." He led the way and we. were admitted to the presence of Caesar. He! sat at his desk in full military uniform, a big man, every inch a soldiej;. His first words were addressed to me, "Roscius, how are rehearsals coming along?" All the facts might not have pleased him but I managed to say, "Very well, Sire, although Cynthia Mamuta's illness slowed us down."

Cornelius said, "1 have become a Christian.

"And how about your work, Macer?" Caesar asked, "The scenes will be ready when the actress is ready." Then the playwright outlined all that he had done. Caesar seemed waiting. Suddenly the trap was sprung. "Where did you learn so much about the beliefs of the Christians?" "From the Christians themselves." "In Rome?" "Yes." "And where else?" "Right here in Antioch." "From whom?" "From a woman." "You mean Cynthia Mamuta?" Marcus, shook his head. "From the bishop's niece." . The. Emperor: leaned back in his chair. "I have heard. , that," he said coldly. "Please explain why you haVe.visited her so often."

The playwright became precise, declaring that it. had

beeq absolutely necessary to know the Christian belief to y gQ to the, baths ... ."

"Put someone in command," Caesar said.

write his derision scenes, I quickly mentioned that I, too, had visited the bishop's house for the same reason. But Colonel Cornelius said slowly, "I have become a Christian. I received the sacraments of the church not long before the bishop was sent away. I had planned to inform you and resign my commission. I do so now." "Do you mean that you have become like those fanatics and will no longer draw a sword for the Empire?" Caesar began almost plaintively. Fascus, too, was thunderstruck at the action of the man who once had saved his life. "Am I under arrest?" Cornelius asked. "For what?" Caesar returned, absently. He got up and, stood. staring, at the walls. "Commander Fascus,". he said,
