Enterprising Delta Farmer.

FORT COLLINS, Colo. Oct. .
Dean w. L. Carlyle today received
a letter from a Delta county man
in which the writer offers to work
tree of charge at the agricultural
college as farmer for term OF
FIVE years provided the college
furnishes him with one grain OF
wheat, the ground in which to
grow it and the increase from the
original grain during the term of
FIVE years. as well as a team with
which to plow his land after the
second year
Professor Fritz Knorr. assistant
agronomIst at the college, esti-
mates the increase of one grain OF
wheat in FIVE years as follows: The
first year would yield so spikes,
equal to 1000 grains; the second
season would yield two bushels
the third year two acres could be
planted and the yield would be 100
bushels; 5000 bushels would be
harvested the fourth year and the
crop the next year would run out
the enormous total of 250,000
bushels. Needless to say the offer
to work FIVE years for the increase
made by one kernel of wheat will
be turned down.

We must remember that no wealth

invention, every industry, every
commercial enterprise, owes its
success to the co-eXistence and co

often that inventions worth mil

ITO my mind, the income tax is

humiliating injustice to have the

not exempt him from all taxes of
