There is more Catarrh in tliis

other diseases put logetiter, a id
until the last few years was sup-
posed to he incurable. For a
.great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease and
prescribed local remedies and by
-constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in-
curable. Science has proven
Catarrh to he a constitutional dis
ease, and therefore requires con-
stitutional treatment. Mall's

Much has been satu anu more writ-
ten about the evils of watered stock in
big business concerns and the farm-
ers of this uaiion believe that every
dollar written into the life of any
business organization, should be able
to say *1 know that my Redeemer
liveth," but fanning is the biggest
business on earth, and there is more
water in its financial transaction than
that of any other industry. There is
as much water iu a farmer's note
drawing eight or ten per cent interest
when other lines of industry secure
money for four or live per cent per
annum, as there is in a business (lay-
ing a reasonable compensaiioii upon
the face value of securities repre
senting an investment of only fifty
(•“tits on the dollar. The only dif-
ference i', 1 he water is in the interest
ia*e in one instance «nd in the secur
ities in the other
The promote r ofttimes takes chances
ami ins success is contingent upon
the development of the property in-
volved hut tin* usurer, as a rule, lakes
no chances and his success cripples
• he property involved There may be
industries that cry louder but none
that suffer more severely from finan-
cial immorality in both law and cus
tom Ilian that of agriculture.
The farmers of America today are
paying $200,000,040 p.*r annum in
usury on real estate and chattel
loans, and this interest capitalized
t five per cent, represents SI.000,000.

money is almost equal to ihe annual
value of crops produced in the I nited
