HIGHER PRICES FOR
GRIM THRESHING
Farmers Will Be Compelled to
Pay Increased Rates
This Year
Selinsgrove, Pa., Sept. 2R.—For the
first time in thirty years farmers of
Snyder county will be compelled to
pay higher prices for threshing their
crops of wheat and rye. Announce
ment has been made by the members
of the Thresher's Alliance that the
charge will be three cents a bushel for
wheat and rye, and two cents a bushel
for oats, which latter price is the
same as former years. In former
years all grains were threshed for
two cents a bushel.
Farmers in this section, in many
instances declare they will bind them
selves together and buy a threshing
outfit rather than submit to the
"trust" methods alleged to be in use
by the Thresher's Alliance.

tional prohibition, the protest waa
adopted by an almost unanimous vote.

Mifflin County Farmer
Calls Attention to
Highway Made by State
Lewistown, Pa., Sept. 25.—At the
Lewistown end of the new State high
way, In the Lewistown Narrows,
stands the unique sign that accom
panies this article. It was erected by
John Miller on his land. When the
new State highway WHS built the road
was changed from where it ran over
a steep hill to lower down near the
river, where the land was more level.
The new road went through the land
belonging to Mr. Miller. He contested
the right of the people to go through
his farm, saying that it would cut up
and damage his property, but the road
was surveyed and open up. Mr. Mil
ler carried the matter the courts
here, where his contention was met
•with defeat. Then he erected the sign
that stands on his land facing the new
road.
Mr. Miller is a well-to-do farmel
and lumberman. The courts decided
on the damages to the land, but the
amount was far from what Mr. Miller
thought proper.

SICK DOCTOR
Proper Food Put Him Right
The food experience of ft physician
In his own case when worn and weak
from sickness and when needing nour
ishment the worst way, is valuable:
"An attack of grip, so severe it came
near making an end of me, left my
stomach in such condition I could not
retain any ordinary food. I knew, of
course, that I must have food nour
ishment or I could never recover.
"X began to take two teaspoonfula
of Grape-Nuts and cream three times
a day and for 2 weeks this was almost
my only food. It tasted so delicious
that I enjoyed it immensely and my
stomach handled it perfectly from the
first mouthful. It was so nourishing I
was quickly built back to normal
health and strength.
"Grape-Nuts Is of great value as
food to sustain life during serious at
tacks In which the stomach is so de
ranged it cannot digest and assimi
late other foods.
"I am convinced that were Grape-
Nuts more widely used by physicians,
It would save many lives that arc
otherwise lost from lack of nourish
ment." Name given by Postum Co.,
Battle Creek, Mich.
The most perfect food in the world.
Trial of Grape-Nuts and cream 10 days
proves. "There's a Reason."

UNREFRESHING SLEEP
The woman who is tired out, who
aches all over when she rises in the
morning, who feels depressed most of
the time, needs just the help that
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can give her
—new blood and stronger nerves.
The number of disorders that are
caused by thin blood is amazing and
most women are careless about the
condition of their blood. Quickly the
nerves are affected and the patient
becomes irritable, worries over trifles,
does not sleep as well as formerly and
is not refreshed by There may
or may not bo stomach trouble and
headache. This is a condition that
calls for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, the
nonalcoholic tonic.
Give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a trial
and the first sign of new life will be
noticed in your appetite. You will bo
hungry by meal time. As the blood
becomes enriched it feeds and soothes
the irritated nerves, sleep becomes
sounder and more refreshing, your
worries become less, your work lighter.
These are some of the things that
these tonic pills do. Try them for
any trouble caused by thin blood.
The Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady. N. Y., will mall free to
