Cream-Eggs-Poultry
Yes, Wc buy cream and lots of it also yonr eggs
and poultry. We are and always have been pay
ing "TOP MARKET PRICES" and shall continue
to do so. Yqu may rest assured when you bring
your produce to the Union you get the prevailing
market price for it.
COMPETITION
That's what we like. We enjoy good fair and
square competition, and welcome it. Competition
- is the very,life of trade. Without it the farmer
would be "in doubt whether he was getting value re
ceived With it he has only to consult the other
fellows quotations and then he knows he is receiv
ing honest treatment.
FAIR DEALING
Ask any one of our patrons about our prices and
tests and soe if they are satisfied. A continued pa
tronage of approximately 350 cream customers is
pretty fair evidence that we are treating our patrons
right and meeting competition on a fair business
basis.
YOU SHARE OUR EARNINGS
Members of the Union should bear in mind that all
the -profit we make on your produce less the actual
Tciirpnrandling is paid back to you IN DIVIDENDS.

Adjusted Compensation
It now appears that President Hard
ing's action basindofinitely postponed
tho arrival of adjusted compensation,
properly but erroneously known as the
"bonus." The action comes as s dis
appointment to every ex-service man
who has taken the pains to post him
self on tho subject.
In every part of the United States
the returned service man seems to bo
n misQt. He Unds women occupying
his former position. Those similarly
situated who did not go to war aro
comfortably located in their respective
callings, generally about two years
ahead of the man who weut, from the
standpoint of material gain and accom
plishment of the work he has outlined
lor himself to do.
From the west comes the word of
service men walking the streets beg
ging for work, the'ir former positions
In many cases held by Japs'and other
foreigners whoso standard of living
makes posslblo competition with them
in the field of labor.
From Chicago comes word that John
Munson has just died in a hospital
there, friendless and fundless. To the
average person this means nothing,
for the name of Munson has been for
gotten. Rut by members of tho "Lost
Battalion" tho name of Munson will
not be forgotten. He was the man
whoso gallant action was largely re
sponsible for tho return of that bat
talion For his bravery he was dec
oiated by several nations Now he is
dead, u victim of the country's forget
fulness. ou say these are exceptions to the
general rule. Wo deny this. The son
of wealth who served during the war
and who finds upon returning that his
place is still open to him, that his-firm
has deposited to his credit a sum equal
to his peacc-timu salary each month,
bits back in his swivel chatr and an.
uouueed that the returned service man
does not want a bonus. But he, in
his easy job is tho exception and not
tho rule. The rule is that the returned
service mau is financially decidedly in
arrears.
The present bill before congress, the
Fordney Fourfold Option plan, is the
result of the investigation of economic
experts, and is calculated to make up
merely the economic differencs gained
by the man who stayed homr. It
would merely raise tho army wage to
a figure consi-tuut with the raise ol
other wages over the same period of
time. It would glvo no one a "bonus"
on patriotism.
To innlto this adjustment whs the
llrat duty of the the nation when the
war wus over. As a duty it was super,
lor to our obligations to other nations
whoso existence we had saved by the
timely entry into the conflict. It
should have como ahead of our obliga.
tlon to the railroads even if they did
lose money during the war.
Rut now comes the President and
tells us that the "bonus" will be too
great a strain on the treasury. Yet
half a billion dollars to the railroads
goes through congress without serious
opposition, We are told that we have
no money, yet the European nations
owe us millions of dollars of interest.
Though the times are hard for the time
being," they are not as hard as they
would have been had these boys not
made the sacrifice whlclj the Fordney
bill seeks to adjust.
We claim to be as conservative as
any in our estimate of political con
ditions, and as charitable as any in'
our judgement of those who differ
with us on political questions. We
denounco as quickly as auy the soap
box orator who blames every action
of congress onto the lufluenee of big
money, Rut wo must never the loss
rcmatk, that in taking his present
stand, the president has listened too
much to advisers who fear the wrath
of Wall street and big bankers, and
too little to those who are in closest
touch with the conscience of the Am.
erlcan people.
The time will come when the return
ed soldier will be the most influential
man lu American life, political and
otherwise. When that time comes it
will be too late to care for such cases
as Munson, But tho6e who survive
will recelvo their back pay with inter,
est. And If the present political part,
ies will not suffice a new party that
will can bo created Clay County
