MK FORD TO RAISE
WAGES IN EUROPE
Henry Ford is credited with a
good part of the transformation
from low to high wages in the
United States during the past 20
ears. For this reason, as well as.
}*.•* his undoubted industrial genius, ;
nis recently announced plans of ■
putting his methods to work in'
various countries in Europe are
most interesting.
Mr. Ford has established several
branches of his company in various
European countries during the past
few years, and is still planning more.
Recently he has had a staff of ex-
perts engaged in finding the aver-
age real wages prevailing in the
respective countries. When that
average is found, Mr. Ford says
that he will set his own minimum
wage scale considerably above that
figure.
Of course, Mr. Ford is not en-
gaged in a gigantic plan to
raise the wag e scale of Europe
by main force. His own announce-
ment stresses the fact that he is
mainly concerned with getting the
best workers and is willing to pay
them well.
But even though Mr. Ford’s plans
are not altruistic, it raises a most in-
teresting question. Will not his own
high scale force others to compete
thus raising wages all around, mak-
ing a better market, and hoist the
general prosperity, as wages have
done here?—Houston Chronicle.
MILK FLOWS WHERE
SUDAN GRASS GROWS
NAVASOTA, Aug. 26.—-Twenty
acres of Sudan grass pasture has
been paying $4.30 a day this sum
mer to J. J. Johnson, dairy farmer
of Lynn Grove community.
Until this year the production of
his cows had slumped in the lummer
when the demand for sweet cream
at the local ice crpam factory was
greatest. But this season his 40
cows increased their milk flow two
gallons a day as soon as they were
turned into the Sudan grass pasture,
and in eight days had increased 25
gallons daily. The milk averages
four per cent and sells for 50 cents
per pound butterfat, making the
pasture yield $4.30 per day, not
counting the value of the skim
milk. At the end of eleven days
the grass was eaten down and the
cows had to be removed for a few
days to get another start. He in-
tends to plant one acre of Sudan
for every cow next year, the county
agent reports.
CONCHO.—A totals of 12,500
sheep were treated for stomach
worms by the tetrachlorthylenc
method in Concho county in July,
the county agent reports.

PIG REMARKS
“I wouldn't be n real pig if I didn't
fry to get everything to eat fur my-
self. and I am a real pig," said Miss
Hum.
“My name is a good pig name, too.
It’s an aristocratic, stylish name. At

“There Is nothing ordinary about
me. No, indeed! 1 hiii Miss Ham of
the famous I'ig family, famous for
centuries and centuries for their
greediness—tlie clever dears.”
"Greediness isn’t supposed to be
clever,” said Brother Bacgn, "but at
the same time I am in favor of It.”
“What do you mean by centuries
and centuries?” asked Master I'lnk
Pig. “Has it anything to do with
food?
“Is It something to eat by any
ehnnee?"
Now Master Pink Pig was very-
young ami he didn’t know the mean-
ing of anything hut hunger. He al-
ways was so hungry. No mutter how
much lie ate he always wanted to eat
more.
“No, Master Pink Pig,” said Miss
Ham, “centuries mean a great, long
time. What I meant to say was that
there had been pigs in the world for
so long a time I can hardly tell my-
self how long!
“In fact I couldn’t think' lmck that
long, for I'm not good at arithmetic.

Pigs aren't especially good at lessons.
We're too lazy. And why should we
study?
“For no special reason, I suy.”
“There are pigs who are being
taught to keep clean,” said Brother
Bacon. ,
“Yes,” agreed Sammy Sausage, “I've
heard about that, too. They say
there Is no reason why pigs shouldn’t
be clean, and so they’re trying to bring
them up like little boys and girls,
making them hnte clean faces—-ex-
tremely foolish things, and nice, neat
feet—utterly absurd.
“They say that pigs simply need to
be taught, and so I suppose they are
having a sort of school for them. I’m
glad I don’t have to go to it.”
“So are we all," squealed all the
pigs In the pig pen, and those who
were wandering around a great mud-
dy patch.
“Ah,” said Grandfather Porky Pig.
“It was never like that In my day.
They never talked of schools for pigs
or of keeping clean.
“Ah, me; all, my; oh raerey, gra-
cious sakes! The pigs of tills day
aren’t, like the pigs of my day.”
"A regular grandfntherly. speech,”
said Sammy Snusage.
“But wo are likp you, grandfather,"
squealed Brother Bacon.

asked Grandfather Porky.
“No. Indeed," said the pigs in the
pig pen.

“The one who does the best In this

Unintentional Suicide i
Many people are slowly poisoning
themselves just as surely as if they
drank iodine every morning for break-
fust. They arc daily absorbing the
toxins, or poisons, created by accumu-
lated waste matter in their constipated
digestive systems. Sooner or later
disease will conquer their weakened
bodies.
If you have dizzy spells, headaches,
coutcd tongue, bad breath, insomnia,
no appetite, bilious attacks or pains in
the back and limbs, you arc probably
suffering from self poisoning caused by
constipation. The surest nnd pleasantest
