Contention that the tariff imposed OF

farmers will no more stand the test 81
facts and figures than most other asser
tions Of TIE industrious attorneys fol
free foreign trade.
Under The existing law tariff IS i'm.
posed on the principal farm products,
as follows: Wheat, 20 cents per busnel
corn. oats. barley and rye. each Il
cents: potatoes. Is cents; live stock
(other than breeding), twenty per cent
on value. The effect of these charges,
according to the great apostle Of free
trade, who never lets slip the opportun-
ity for reiterating his creed, is that
Tariff taxation is not limited to the
consumer Of imported articles. but the
duties imposed upon such articles per-
nit a corresponding increase in price to
be laid upon the domestic production OF
the same kind.

the price lists of the different trade CEN
tiers before him. can see that this is not
true; while it is fact that the tariff
rates above quoted serve as check to
an influx Of foreign grown products
which would, in the absence OF such
barrier, seriously embarrass market
prices in the United States Foreign
producers pay the tariff on such of these
products as they send here. and hence
cannot afford to sell them as cheaply as
they could and would sell if permitted
to bring their products here free. What
they thus pay in the way Of tariff goes
into the public treasury, and by so
much reduces the amount that other
wise would be raised from our own citi-
Zens.
But Notwithstanding the fact that
foreign farmers are taxed for the priv
ilege of selling their products in our
markets. they did send here during the
last fiscal year staple farm products to
the value OF nearly S14.000,000, viz.
Breadstufs. S6,034,272. vegetables,
81, ass, S54, animals, 1920, 277. After
paying over two and three-quarter mil
lion dollars az tariff. these were sold in
competition with the products of Amer
lean farms.
1t is with such facts as these that free
trade attorneys should be confronted
when pleading with the farmer for his
vote against the policy of protection for
American labor The American farmer
can no more successfully compete
against the cheap grown wheat Of India
and Russia than the American manu-
facturer can compete with his foreign
grown competitor in making cheap
goods. The tariff of 20 cents per bushel
removed. and the price Of American
grown wheat would come down, or for
eign grown wheat would be sold in its
stead. Proof of this lies in compare
son Of market quotations from the com.
mercial centers Of Europe and the
United States. And farmers will find
more profit in such comparison than in
listening to the confusing diatribes Of
free trade advocates.

A STREET CAR sMAsH-UP.

Last evening there was some excitement
in the vicinity of Second and Main caused
by collision of farm team and wagon
and an electric street car. Both tried to
occupy the same space at the same time
and ali concerned were more or less injured
and showed evidences of impromp,u treat
ment. The conditions as witnessed were
that the car was going south at about the
regular speed and the two horses attached
to a farm wagon in charge of
two men were going north at a
rapid speed Some thought the
horses were on the runaway or almost be-
yond control. They were on the east side
of the street and just before reaching the
car the team abruptly turned across the
track. 1t was impossible to tell whether
the drivers turned the horses, expecting to
90 west on Second, or whether the team
was beyond control In crossing the track
the car struck the horses and front part of
the wagon. The two men in the wagon
described circle in the air which ended
on the pavement. The horses were knock
ed down and the wagon badly smashed.
The crush mashed in the car and the door
of the car being open the motoneer, Il.
Kooken, was given a turn backwards
through the car. Had not the door been
open it is thought he would have received
serious injuries.
The two men were picked up from the
pavement and for short time were uncon-
scious They gave the names of &c. Cook
and 5. Rummel, and reside three miles
northwest of the packing houses. They
were taken to the home of a friend in the
north. part of the city. Cook was reported
as having two ribs broken and badly
bruised, while Rummel was considerably
bruised

The Air We Require

The following computations have been
made in regard to the amount of air neces-
sary for the average adult: In each res
piration an adult inhales pint of air. A
healthy man respires Is to 20 times min
ute, or p, 900 times a day; a child 25 or IS
times minute. While standing the adult
respiration is % times per minute; while
lying down, 10. The superficial surface Of
the lungs, i. e., of their alveOlar space, Is
200 square yards. The amount of air re-
spired every "A hours is about Il, 600 quarts.
The amount of oxygen absorbed in "A hours
is 500 liters about IA gramsl. The amount
of carbonic acid expired in the same time
is 400 liters OILS grams). Two-thirds Of
the oxygen absorbed in "a hours is alb
sorbed during the night hours, from 8
p. m. to 8 a. m; three-ffths of the total is
thrown off during the dsy. The pulmonary
surface gives off $50 grams Of water daily
in the state of vapor.
An adult must have at least 500 liters of
air in an hour. The heart sends 500 quarts
of blood through the lungs every hour, or
about 1900 daily. The duration Of inspira-
ton is five-twelfths of expiration, seven
twelfths of the whole respiratory act. Dur
ing sleep inspiration occupies ten-twelfths
of the respiratory period.

The merits of Mr.. Carleton's perform
anceS have received attention in these col
umns as they passed in review, and the
operas given are recalled with genuine
pleasure. Mr.. Carleton himself won new
laurels, not only for his own efforts, but
for the unselfsh sense of artistic fitness
which prompted him to associate with
himself singers and actors, and above all,
ladies and gentlemen, of conspicuous
worth and merit They have received not
only homage for their professional efforts,
but have enjoyed social attentions at the
hands of many prominent citizens. 1t
may be safely predicted that the visits
of Carleton, Murray, Bigelow, Blake,
Lane, Vincent, Wisdom aud Langnon will
hereafter be anticipated with greater
pleasure than ever before, and they may
always count on a cordial welcome.
As for the Star Theater, that may be

Having had the honor to serve as land
