Beware of the Song Swindlers— Investments 
A LMOST everyone sooner or later gets 
an idea into his head that he is a 
natural born poet or song-writer. Swin¬ 
dlers know this and capitalize upon this 
failing of human nature by advertising 
to pay large sums and royalties for ac¬ 
ceptable songs. When you answer the 
advertisement you are asked to send on a 
fee ranging anywhere from two to thirty- 
five dollars, and usually that is the last 
you ever hear of your money. As a matter 
of fact, songs are not produced that way, 
and not one person in a million can write 
an acceptable one. 
Recently Judge Lindley in the United 
States Court sentenced W. L. Needham, 
manager of the Musician Self-Maker 
Company, to a year and a day in prison 
and to pay a fine of two thousand dollars 
for using the mails to defraud in advertis¬ 
ing for songs. In the trial of this man the 
government submitted 2,220 exhibits of 
verses which ambitious would-be poets 
and writers had sent to Needham in the 
the recipient, and it took a little patience 
to determine the responsibility for the 
loss. In the end, however, a check in full 
payment of the claim was sent us by the 
express company and turned over to 
Mrs. T. 
Mrs. T. had been a subscriber for a long 
time but this was the first time she had 
enlisted our aid. We hope for her sake 
that she need never “come again,’ but we 
shall always be glad to try to straighten 
out tangled claims for Mrs. T. or any 
other subscriber. 
I have $140 invested in the Kokomo Recen Mining & 
Dredging Corp. I have received but one dividend. At¬ 
tached letters and literature.— Mbs. J. W„ New York. 
We know nothing about this particular 
mining company except that contained 
in the literature you enclose. However 
nothing, in our opinion, is more foolish 
than for a woman to put money into 
mining stocks. More money has been 
lost in this way than in any other gamble. 
Insured Just Before the Unexpected Happened 
I RECEIVED the check for $40 for the injuries I received on October 13, 
1 1923 for which I wish to thank you. I have been taking your paper for 
a long time and have taken several other farm papers from time to time, 
but I always drop the others in a year or so, but your paper is the only one 
I have continued taking every year. I think it s the most up-to-date 
farm paper there is published. 
I never knew about your insurance plan until last fall. I attended the 
dairy show held at Syracuse, and a neighbor who was with me was talking 
with your agent and he told me about the insurance and said he had it, 
and I was almost laughing to myself. It seemed so cheap I thought it 
was’no good. But as soon as I learned it was the Agriculturist that was 
doing it, I got more serious and took it. 
I have been driving cars and trucks for seven years and never had an 
accident before, and then to think that two days after insuring that I 
broke my car beyond repairs and that by good luck my life was saved! — 
J. A. L., Tully, N. Y. 
L 
belief that they would be set to music. 
^Many of these would-be writers came 
from their home in distant states to testify 
how they had sent Needham fees from 
$2 to $35. In sentencing Needham, the 
judge said: “You were a petty parasite on 
the community, getting money from 
trusting people—a high school boy, a 
woman with a baby in her arms, and a 
woman sixty-three years old.” 
MORE EGGS 
I RECEIVED the check of $10.20 for 
eggs to-day and appreciate your kind¬ 
ness very much, as I am afraid I would 
not have got it if it had not been for you. 
I am grateful to you for it. Let me know 
what your charges are and I will send it 
accordingly.”—Mrs. A. T., New Jersey. 
! There was, of course, no charge on col¬ 
lecting the check of $10.20 due Mrs. T. for 
eggs damaged in transit. The express 
company had some difficulty in tracing 
\ 
excuse the harsh word, except possibly 
in oil. There seems nothing for you to do 
now except keep your stock. We earn¬ 
estly advise, however, that you put no 
more money into this kind of a venture.

Please tell me if it is safe to invest money in the Duplex 
Motion Picture Industries, Inc., 1819 Broadway, New 
York City.—G. B. S., New York. 
No, it is not safe to invest hi Duplex

picture or amusement stock. It is unsafe 
in the extreme. Our earnest advice is 
to leave these promotion stocks alone 
unless you have money to waste.

Do you know anything about the Fox Motor Company 
of Philadelphia, Pa.? According to reports this company 
was in receivers hands and to be sold at receivers sale on 
March 24. We have received letters from the president 
of this concern asking us to put more money into the Fox 
Air Cooled Car, so as to keep control. Otherwise we 
would lose the money we have now invested. Is there 
such a company and do they manufacture anything?— 
R. H. S„ Pa. 
Our advice is to charge your unfortu¬ 
nate speculation in Fox Motors to experi¬ 
ence and not to put any more money into 
the enterprise with the hope of saving 
what seems now lost. The automobile

I would like advice through your columns whether 
the Pan American Oil stock at 45 per share for Class A

Pan-American oil stock is not a saie 
investment. It is one of the most highly 
speculative oil stocks listed on the New

prepared to take extreme speculative 
risks we advise you to leave it entirely
