CHURCH DESERVES
THE PATRONAGE
Proprietor of lloniliiKford Joui-iiaI,
Wlilrh Humeri Out Three week
A lit, Continue in HiinIiicnn
llrowne Church, proprietor of The
llemingford Journal, the plant of
which whs totally destroyed In the
disastrous fire at that place four
weeks ano. Is making a brave fight
there and will continue in business,
despite the fact that his plant which
he had purchased only a month be
fore, was a total loss.
Ilrowne has a wide acquaintance
in Ilox Hutte county and his efforts
to Rive the town of Hemlngford a
good paper were productive of pood
repults. The people of Hemlngford
appreciate his efforts and are giving
him their support, which he certain
ly deserveB.
In an announcement published in
The Journal this week Browne says:
Since the Journal plant at Hem
Ingford was destroyed by flre, some
four weeks ago, there seems to have
arisen among some of our patrons an
idea that we had gone out of busi
ness altogether, and work has been
sent to other towns, no doubt on ac
count of this misunderstanding. We
wish to stute however, that we will
attend t othe needs of our patrons In
the printing line and believe that we
deserve the support of the people of
Hemlngford and vicinity until such
time as we are able to establish an
other printing plant at Hemlngford.
At the present time all printing giv
en to us will receive the prompt at
tention of The Alliance Herald Job
department, where we are having
our work done until more satisfac
tory arrangements can be made.
We expect soon to install a print
ing plant again in Hemlngford, for
we have confidence In the town and
appreciate great! ythe loyal support
given us when In business here be
fore the fire which destroyed our
plant. We feel that Hemlngford de
serves a good newspaper and It will
be our constant endeavor to merit
the patronage of Hemlngford busi
ness men and of our subscribers In
this territory. We plan to give our
readers a high class local newspaper
with the news of the town and its
territory and ask their patronage
and support on that basis. Our tem
porary office Is at the Hemlngford of
fice of the Forest Lumber Comapny.

INSIDE NEWS
OF WASHINGTON
Herman It. Walker Writes Interest
ing: I'nge of Xew.H for Succes-
ful Fanning, Pes Moinen
Herman B. Walker, of Washing
ton, edits' a page entitled "Ferreted
Facts for Farmers" In Successful
Farming, the national farmer's mag
azine. This page Is always Interest
ing. The October number contained
the following interesting para
graphs: A general reorganization of the
Department of Agriculture is to be
made within the near future, accord
ing to inside information. This shak
ing is not to mean a change in offi
cials so much as a change in meth
ods. Less red tape and more effici
ency is the basis of the plan that Is,
if possible, to be worked out.
Like other departments of govern
ment, that which has charge of agri
cultural work Is much hampered by
the system of making appropriations.
Congress. Instead of giving the Sec
retary of Agriculture a certain
amount to spend In such ways as
necessity and his judgment may dic
tate, divides the appropriations up in
little sums available only for cer
tain purposes, and the money appro
priated for one purpose cannot be
used for another purpose. The effect
of this system is to hamper effective
work along some lines by shortage
of available funds for the work need
ed, while in other lines more money
Is provided than needs to be spent.
For instance, there is a certain ap
propriation to fight hog cholera, an
other to fight the boll weevil, still an
other for investigation of grain
smuts, etc., etc. In any year it may
happen that a new farming problem,
disease, insect or something else ap
pears, making desirable an addition
al sum for certain lines of field or
laboratory work. If the wise men
In Congress have not foreseen this
need, there will be no money that
can be used to solve this new prob
lem, although In other funds, for
other bureaus and other work, there
may be money provided In excess of
that needed to be spent.
This applies to all branches of ad
ministrative work of the govern
ment. The result is an overlapping
of -work and juggling of bureau ac
tivities that in many cases costs Un
cle Sam much unnecessary expanse.
In the Agricultural Department, for
Instance, there is a bureau of experi
mental stations whose work is close
ly restricted by Congressional pro
vision to appropriation bills. There
1b also a bureau of plant Industry,
one of animal industry, and others.
The effect of these divisions is prac
tically to create several sets of ex
perimental stations and demonstra
tion farms, in which the work. If not
exactly duplicated or triplicated, is
at least so closely related that the
same farm or station, under different
conditions and regulations, could be
readily made to serve for all the sev
eral purposes of the different sets of
stations.
Too Much Duplication
This duplication of identical or
similar work exists not only within
departments, but very often different
departments of the government are
found doing the same work. It was
discovered recently that the bureaus
of the Department of Commerce, Ag-
rlculture and the Interior were each
collating practically the same kind
of census data, and an inter-departmental
committee has been created
to report a plan for eliminating two
of these censuses.
In Alaska both the War Depart-!
ment and the Navy Department!
maintain wireless telegraph stations, i
under different direction and super
vision, each set doing the same work.
In a report recently on "Red Tape in
Alaska" Secretary Lane pointed out
that wardens for the protection of
game In that territory are appointed
by the governor of Alaska, paid by
the li.terlor Department, and work
under regulations made by th De
partment of Agriculture. !
On some of the Islands along the,
Alaskan oast, the Agricultural Ix" :
partnunt protects the birds, the De-'
pnriinent of Commerce protects the,
foves. and the Interior Department
the reindeer. !
lUfiirin In Making Appropriations ;
tme of the reforms for which Tres-j
ident Taft most strenuously contend-1
ed was a budget system of appropri-1
atlon, such as they have in Great;
Britain and most other countries,!
where certain appropriations, In i
lump sums, are made for depart
mental use, and the exact amount to
be spent for particular purposes is j
left to the judgment of the Cabinet
and the head of each department. '
Such a plan, however, would serl-i
ously Interfere with the log-rolling'
methods by which senators and rep-
rescntatlves exchange votes to get!
public buildings, river and harbor,
j improvements, experimental stations
(etc., in their respective districts, for
political purposes.
I recently visited Denver, Colora
do, and Muskogee, Oklahoma. In 1
Denver the government has many of-j
fires and is paying about $30,000 aj
i year rent for public offices. In Mus
kogee the post office, Indian office,
and I'nited Statea Marshal are about
the only public offices; under the
pork barrel system, however, feder
al buildings of about the same size
are being completed In both cities.
The few government offices will be
lost In the Muskogee building, while
the Denver building, when finished,
will be large enough to hold only
about half the federal officers and
employees now there.
Apjrty Sloan's Freely for Lumbago

nearly so hopeless as they seem. You
can relieve them almost instantly by
a simple application of Sloan's Lini

Mistakes in putting up doctors' prescriptions may
result 'in death. How do such serious mistakes occur?
They may occur through the hurried carelessness of
the pharmacist or clerk who fills the 'prescription.
They may occur because he misreads th Latin terms
of the prescription. Often doctors write hurriedly un
der stress or their writing is naturally hard to read, but
we are very particular. We check everything.
