A column condemns wartime profiteering and unemployment while warning of Bolshevik danger. It criticizes U S reliance on English dirigible manufacture, notes five to six million unemployed, and questions American industrial capability and national resolve.
A Shelby county sheep feeder sent 287 lambs to South Omaha after a commission merchant advised selling “at hand.” The lambs, bought earlier in the market and fed five weeks on grass, weighed about 72 pounds each. They fetched $1,390.51 gross, the feeder receiving $64 more than cost, with 50 lambs left at home. The buyer offered $7.25, then $7, but sold low to a scalper, and the feeder lingered for details.
A Nebraska feeder sees a scalper sell 100 fat lambs at about 10 dollars each and 187 more at 8 dollars, totaling 1738.12 dollars. He suspects collusion, noting the scalper earned at least 842.61 dollars more than paid, and contemplates farmers organizing to resist such abuses.
The speaker argues that workers resist self-imposed wage cuts while urging others to lower prices. He notes widespread buying stagnation, a drop in demand for labor, and six million unemployed. The cure is for all to reduce own prices, restoring purchasing and employment, not waiting for others to act.
An assortment of quirky maxims and wry lines on marriage, gender roles, fashion, and social trends. The fragments touch on men’s vanity, women’s self perception, aging fashion, and a tongue in cheek take on education, politics, and public life with ironic tone.
A pronounced success marks the use of Chamberlains Coke and Diarrhoea Remedy in treating bowel complaints for children and adults. It is now widely used and considered without a rival, with most users affirming its equal effectiveness.
