RESULTS REiMLE SITS NEW TORK MU Prominent Rochester Citi zen Tried Ten Years To Get Relief, But Tanlac Is Only Thing That Helped Him. One of the latest to testify regard fng the powers of Tanlac," the cele brated medicine which has been ac complishing such remarkable results, is James J. Beasley, 102- Elmdorf Avenue, Rochester, New York. Mr. Beasley has been chief record keeper for the Department of Water Works, city of Rochester, for thirty years and is a well .known and highly re spected citizen. Ir. referring to the remarkable recovery of his health by the use' of Tanlac, Mr. Beasley said: “I have been trying for ten years to find relief from a case of dys pepsia. Nothing ever helped me to amount to anything until I got Tan lac. This is saying h great deal, for I did everything it seems that a man tould do to -find relief. Os course, I was hardly ever sick enough to go to bed and was most always able to keep going, but I just never felt right. At times' during those ten years, my stomach would become sour like vinegar. I would have an uncomfortable bloated up feeling af ter eating that would last for hours. I suffered a great deal from nausea. At times my heart would flutter and palpitate and I would become alarmed over my condition. My nerves were on edge all the time, and I became irritable, nervous' and restless. I had no strength or energy to do anything. In fact I wasn’t like myself at all.

SETTLING IN TERMS OF PRODUCT IS SOUND BASIS FOR FARM RENT ir ~~~ ~ The Crop Yield Should Bear a Close Relation to the Rent Per Acre. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Thomas Kashrent greeted his land lord, John Acreowner, in the Kashrent kitchen. The visitor took the chair proffered and filled his pipe. “Thomas,” said he, when tlfeir pipes were well alight, "I want to get you thinking over an idea that I picked up the other day from a bulletin sent out to me by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture. It’s made up by the office of farm management and its subject matter is of interest to us both. The title is, ‘The Farm Lease Contract.’ “Now,” he continued, “I'd be a pret ! ty poor judge of human nature if I didn’t know-that you’re feeling a little blue over that cash-rent contract you signed with me last fall. You realize that there are changed conditions, since we made out that lease, that will make it hard for you to pay cash —and you’re one of those men whose word is as good as his bond. Neither of us knew when we signed that pa per that grain and other farm produee were going to take the tumble they have taken, but It doesn’t alter the fact that our contract, as it stands, is hard on you.” Farmer Hard Hit. "Prices certainly dropped,” agreed Kashrent, with a regretful sigh. “They slumped before I had a chance to haul what I intended to sell. All things considered, T’d have been better off if we’d taken the farm on shares instead of on a cash basis.” The landlord nodded understanding ly. “I’m not here to tell you that I’ll reduce your rent materially, nor am I going to offer to change the present contract for a contract on the share basis, hut I’m going to propose some thing that is the next tiling to it. I’m going to try to show you that I appre ciate a good, honest tenant. In case grain is up again by fall you may be able to pay the agreed cash and still make a fair profit. Besides, my own expenditures are more or less fixed and I must have cash to meet them with, lint I’m going to see if I can’t help you to help me by meeting you half-way. “Wlmt do you think of adding a clause to (he contract whereby you will he given the option of paying me in terms of bushels of corn, oats, or wheat? This Farmers’ Bulletin I spoke of tells about similar arrange ments which southern farm owners and tenants have put into praetlee. A good hit of cotton land is rented on a basis such that the tenant pays so many bales, or so many pounds of cotton, for the use of the land for a year. The amount of the rent is close ly related, or should be, to the value of the produee which the tenant is able to raise—that's why farmers and landlords find difficulty in fixing the rent every year. They’re trying to put a value on a crop that isn’t out of the ground yet, you see. If you agree to pay me so many bushels of grain instead of a fixed amount in dollars and cents, I’ll be taking my chance along with you and our good and bad years will run along together. What do you think of the idea?” “I believe we ran come to an agree ment. Mr. Acreowner—one that will he just to both of us. If the terms are right you’ll stand a chance of get ting a little more than your original rent to compensate for taking a share in the risk that I must carry alone now. That’s fair. How can we figure it out?” “Let’s suppose that It takes 800 bushels of grain to pay the cash rent under average conditions. Now sup pose we add 10 per cent to rover my risk of a further drop in prices. We can hit an average by going over the records for a few years bark and fig uring from them just how many bush els had to be sold each year to bring in the amount of the rent in cash. Here are some figures I worked out last evening—they show the average portion of the com crop that was needed to pay the rash rent over a 10- year period.” He handed his tenant a sheet of figures that looked much like this: Bushels of corn it Price at Cash took to Tear. which rent per pay the the corn acre In cash rent sold. corn. on an acre. 1911 $0.1)3 $3.00 5.7 1312 35 3.00 8.6 , 1913 60 3.50 6.8 1914 65 3.60 6.4 ) 1915 61 4.00 7.8 1 1916 80 4.00 5.0 ! 3917 1.08 4.00 3.7 19’S 1.22 5.00 4.1 1919 1-20 6.00 5.0 1920 €4 7.00 10.9 I Average 6.3 1 “Well,” observed Kashrent after n i pause,” that puts the business in a new I j light, doesn’t It? To relieve me from I 'he necessity of making easli puy- j i ments you’re willing to take the value in corn with an additional 10 per cent to cover your liabilities if the price goes away down? Is that it? Then I'd he renting the land from you for about 7 bushels of corn for each acre? I'll take you up if that’s true. Why, look, man ! It took nearly 11 bushels to pay the rent on an acre last year— by your own figures!” “Lots hope that was an exceptional year,” smiled Acreowner. “Anyway, I'll come out all right in the long run.” Details to Decide. They had many questions to decide before the matter was finally settled. They had to agree whether or not the entire rent was to be settled in terms of corn, or whether other crops should have a share. They decided the mat ter of the quality of the com that Mr. Kashrent was to bring his landlord, and where it was to he delivered. There was a question ns to whether or not a date should be established on which the tenant must declare his op tion —cash or corn —and whether or not the landlord should have a similar choice. Perhaps they had to recast the whole lease to agree to the new terms of payment and without ref erence to the cash at nil, but in the end they had a contract which gave justice and protection to both parties if crop prices should prove so unstable as some men predict they will be. In addition, Mr. Kashrent has a landlord whom he respects and Mr. Acreowner has a tenant whom he can rely upon. Landlords and tenants who find themselves facing a similar problem can get additional information from the office of farm management and farm economics, United States Depart ment of Agriculture, to aid them In making the adjustment. ALMANAC IS PLENARY GUIDE TO FARM WORK Good Bits of Advice by Depart ment of Agriculture. Farmers Reminded to Do Right Thiru at Proper Time and Told Where Information on Many Subjects May Be Obtained. (Prepared by the United States Depari nicnl of Agriculture.) “Beware of false prophets. Don’t plant by the moon ; but get the besl seed and prepare the seed bed, then plant when soil and moisture condi tions are right.” “Keeping farm ac counts never worried Adam; but he was only a gardener.” “The owner of a scrub bull should have a leather medal —made from the bull’s hide.” These bits of farm advice are eon tained in “An Agricultural Almanac for 1021,” issued by the United States Department of Agriculture to remind farmers to do the right thing at the right time and to tel] them where to secure information on agricultural subjects. The almanac, which appears ns Farmers’ Bulletin 1202, is published, the department says. In response to a large demand from farmers for a calendar of work showing the timely use of new farm facts. Seasonal ad vice and suggestions are given on such topics as the weather, fnrm operations, marketing, wild life, and woods work. References to other publications of the department tell where detailed in formation on each subject can he had. A section on “Farm Helps” discuss es farm laws and gives tables and directions for such things as mixing stock feed, fertilizers and spray solu tions; weights of seed and grain and other information needed by farmers and their families. A limited num ber of copies Is available for distribu tion by the United States Department of Agriculture and may he had upon application. CURE DEFECTS IN TOMATOES Black Spots May Be Prevented by Treating Seed in Solution of Corrosive Sublimate. It is claimed that black spots In to matoes may he prevented to a con siderable extent by treating the seeds with "a corrosive sublimate solution. One-twentieth of an ounce of corro sive ffliblimate is dissolved in a gallon of water.
