J. E. Boog-Scott. chairman of

in conformity with that taken
by the state several weeks ago.
He said the decision to raise the

of East St. lx»ui* was here last
Saturday making an inspection
of range and live stork condi-
tions, which he found to be sat-
isfactory* and in better condi-
tion than he had expected to find
them
The following is a forecast re-
cently issued by Mr. Wright, rel-
ative to the cattle industry:
"Prophecy is a dangerous pas-
time. Consumption of l*»ef in
this country is considerably af-
fected by non-employment and
consequent over-supply for do-
mestic consumption, but chiefly

there is anyone who feels more
grateful to it than T do." says
Mrs. J. M. Craig, 674'4 E. 40th
street. IjOS Angeles, Calif.
"I suffered from nervous pros-
tration and was so weak that 1
/
could not even sweep the floor
and during the day I would have
to lie down four or five times.
I tried to walk but found out that
half a block w as all I con’d stand
before I would give out. Ner-
vous spells came on me often.
Finally my husband urged me to
try Taniac and I am indeed glad
he did. for it proved to be just
what I needed.
"The first two bottles did not
seem to help me. I guess it was
because I was so bad off. but on
the third bottle I could tell I was
.Improving and that gave me
more hope than ever of getting
well. My improvement from
then on was rapid and by the
time 1 had taken five bottles I
was better and stronger than I
had been in years.
"It enabled me to sleep sound-
ly at night and I have gained 12
pounds. That was several months
ago and from then until now* I
have been in as good health as I
ever was in my life. I have told
all my friends and relatives what
a wonderful medicine Taniac is."
Taniac is sold in Fort Stock-
ton by The Stockton Pharmacy.

from quarantine. The counties
in I)r. Smith’s district are in-
cluded in the Washington an-
nouncement, confirming our in-
pear from the Western and
Northwestern pastures this sum-

July and comparatively light re-

HUGE SUMS FOR 1. S.
TO BE NEEDED
Secretary Weeks of the War
Department, in an address be-
fore the Chamber of Commerce
at Pittsburgh, stated that sever-
al billion dollars must be pro-
vided by the government within
the next thirty months to meet
running expenses and refunding
operations. He further said
that it is the biggest financial
undertaking any nation has ever
attempted in peace times. He
also urged the repeal of the ex-
cess profits tax, declaring that
it was insufficient with prices
falling.

INDIANA
,The center of population of
United States still remains
iril Indiana. according to the cen-
sus of 1920. There is no Amer-
ican but will feel a certain ap-
propriateness in this. Indiana
is as near to being the "typical" |
American state as we can find.'
Like the United States, it is still j
half rural and ytet it contains j
some of the world’s greatest
manufacturing establishments.
Like the United States, it is us-
itftfi.v Republican, but always
doubtful enough to keep both
parties on the alert. In Riley j
we have the American poet clos-;
est to the soil and freest from
foreign influences; in Tarking-
ton we have a heaven-born nov-
elist of the inmost essence of
American small town life. In
virtues and faults. Indiana is
America.—Independent.
With all of the picture before
us, it would appear as though
with some little increase of gen-
eral business activity in the
spring and consequent re-em-
ployment. the market would sus-
tain itself fairly well, with an
upward tendency, if any, for the
balance of this year, and an ad-
ditional tendency for the prices
of moderate weight cattle and
heavy cattle to approach each
other.
"In the long pull, the cattle
business promises to be profit-
able to the producer. Either
selling prices must rise or cost
of production decrease to where
it will show a fair average profit
to the producer, just as is true
with every other basic industry.
Otherwise the economic organi-
zation of the United States must
collapse, and that is absurd."
