IMPORTANCE OF FARMERS UNION'
If Conducted Along Right Lines it
Injures No One, and is Good
Thing For the Farmer
There is no mistaking the fact
that the Farmers Union is fashion
ed along nes, which, if properly
adhered ■ will injure no other
trad or >n>fe»fciou, and will de
velop gt at less in more ways than
one foi f! ; organization.
'i'll I hat the Federation of
Labor a lit an alliance with the,
farmer monstrates conclusively
that t nan of the plow and the j
farm egins to recognize the
strep a s hat is at Ins command,,
and h;.s found in thi- Union a me
dium of properly handling his tre
mendous lower. And if this,
should prove true; it the farmer
lias ni In-1 fashioned a l uion cap
able o protecting his interests
enough to restore 10 him that in
■fluenot* in public atfairs which he i
used to enjoy and which by every
law of nature and man ought to
belong to him, every true states
man and every loyal citizen in the
republic will recognize in the dis
covers an occasion for national
rejoicing.
As a factor in the progress ol
the United States the agricultural
class is larger numerically than
any other; as a wealth producer it
is supreme; as the bearer of the
expense of the government , it is
the mainstay; but as a recipient of
government favors it is restricted
to the niggardly inheritance of the
step child. Thu?*, for many de
cades, the largest class of Ameri
can toilers, the chief wealth pro
ducers of the nation and the main
taxpayers of the country have
been contributing to a condition
that makes life and living easy and
luxurious for others, receiving in
return nothing hut the scraps of
the feast. All America has come
to recognize this crying injustice,
consequently, if the farmers, thru
their Union, can bring about a
change benefit!ing their own con
dition and advancing their influ
ences in the affairs of public life,
all America will gladly and cheer
fully make way for the new pow
er.
It is a power directly in line
with the fundamental principles1
of this country. Years ago it was
tricked out of its rightful heritage,
and the country has been visited
with a loss of public morals and
patriotism, because of the usupa
tion. Let us hope that the time!
has come when the farmer may
claim and hold his own again; for,
doubtless, his advancement to his
legitimate influence will mean a
banisment of that public corrup
tion which the ascendency of rich
es has introduced into the public
life of the nation.

The girl who takes Scott’s Emul

The reason is that at a period when a girl’s
digestion is weak, Scott’s Emulsion
provides her with powerful nourishment in
easily digested form.
It is a food that builds and keeps up a
