with expert opinion and advice on these 
oil burners. They are sold under a 
“guarantee," but the firms selling them 
show no disposition to take them back 
and refund the purchase price until 
forced to do so. The scarcity and high 
price of coal this season will make it 
possible for these concerns to reap a big 
harvest on these burners, but we fear 
that instead of solving the coal problem 
many people will waste the money in¬ 
tended for the purchase of fuel.

On the same feed, you can get more milk from any cow 
—richer, cleaner milk that brings you a better price. 
Yet it is the simplest way you ever heard of. 
Expe rt dairymen who have been clipping their cows have 
proved that it pays them in real dollars and cents. 
Pp Clipping Improves Health 
j The general health of your cows depend upon the con- 
y j dition of their skin. Unhealthy skin—unhealthy system, 
i Clipping keeps the skin in perfect condition. Cows 
like it. Clipped cows give more milk. Richer milk. To 
l get clean milk it’s-no trick at all to clip the flanks, udders

1 am writing for a little needy woman 
who. I fear, has been duped. An agent 
called cm her about two months ago, tak¬ 
ing orders for cutlery. lie carried printed 
receipts bearing the name of the Jennings 
Manufacturing Company, Dayton. O. 
She deposited $1 and received one of the 
receipts, stating that no more money 
would be required, and that the set (<>ue 
No. 250 Delight cutlery) would arrive 
by insured parcel post within 10 days. 
Can you help me? j. f. R.

The Jennings Manufacturing Company 
tell us that two men traveled through the 
West, representing themselves as sales¬ 
men of the company. They were not 
connected, with tho company, and not em¬ 
ployed by it. The Impostors had order 
blanks printed and canvassed the country 
for orders for cutlery, but the orders were 
not tilled. They were finally apprehended 
on a charge of obtaining money on false 
pretenses and sentenced to four years in 
State’s prison.

Robert (’. Lafforty. president of the 
Sunshine Homes Corporation, formerly 
at 2a West 43d Street, New York City, 
was indicted by the grand jury on a 
charge of grand larceny and was held in 
$5,000 hail. Many complaints were filed 
against him. staling that he had accepted 
payments for tin* construction of “model 
concrete homos.” none of which hud been 
built. Policemen, firemen and public 
school teachers were among the victims. 
One party bad paid in $3,500 to the com¬ 
pany in December. 1021, but had never 
had a house or his money. 
Many of these companies claim to 
operate on the principle of savings and 
loan associations, but they are not under 
the same State inspection and are not as 
safe. There is a universal complaint 
that loans are promised at definite dates, 
but there are so many ahead of the bor¬ 
rower he is obliged to wait and is unable 
lo withdraw the money invested. The 
experience is not satisfactory nor en¬ 
couraging.

The literature forwarded by the sub¬ 
scriber starts out with the usual dope of 
how the millionaires made their (for¬ 
tunes, and representing that the Bossard 
Railway Signal Corporation offers a sim¬ 
ilar opportunity It is claimed that the 
federal railroads of Switzerland are using 
the system, but apparently no road in this 
country has adopted it. Jf (be system had 
unusual merit it is logical to expect that 
some of the great American railroads 
would adopt il and thus make the present 
plan of selling stock to country people 
unnecessary. It is only a prospect, at 
best, and there is no good reason why 
farmers should risk their savings in such 
ventures.
