THEN AND NOW,
Some Interesting Figures About
Farm Supplies.

An Iowa Granger Compares Prices Re-
ceived and Paid Now With Those of
Thirty Years Ago and Says One Can
Pay For a Farm Easier Now Than
Then.
At a meeting of Jones Mill grange,
in Iowa. G. ii. Johnson read a paper
on the opportunities and possibilities
which are offered the young man OF
today who is willing TO take up an hon
orable employment and enter upon his
life work as progressive farmer.
The superior inducements offered at
this time are compared to the condi-
tons that existed from twenty to thir-
ty-ive years ago.
The purchasing power of our prod
ucts at that time" said Mr. Johnson.
land the prices we paid for the necessi-
ties in the home and on the farm and
the rates of interest on borrowed mon
ey all combined TO make life on the
farm most serious problem and in
deed caused many young man to
leave the farm and seek the city in
hopes that he might secure a paying
position with less effort and shun what
to him seemed a life of drudgery.
Let us now make Il comparison Of
prices of farm products and cost Of
farm supplies continued the speaker
Thirty years ago we could in Iowa
buy ten yards Of calico for 81, taking
forty pounds OF butter; today the same
amount of butter will buy POO yards
Tweuty-ninc years ago you paid ST. for
100 pounds OF barbed wire, which took
over 100 bushels of oats, today 100
bushels of oats will buy POO pounds
Of wire and the staples thrown in.
Thirty years ago we paid 500 for a
harvester taking $50 bushels of rood
wheat; today the same amount Of
wheat will buy four self binders Thir.
ty-Gve years ago the wife took a trip
on the railroad a distance OF 800 miles,
round trip, which cost SIC, which took
500 dozen OF eggs; today the sa@5
number OF eggs will carry YOU 5000
miles, with better accommodations
Twenty-eight years ago first class
work harness cost SOB, which took
1000 pounds Of pork; today the same
pork will buy two sets of the same
quality OF harness.
"Shoes are some higher but you can
buy today from the products of the
farm three pairs where you could buy
one pair thirty years ago.
Thirty years ago YOU paid for shoe.
ing pair of horses 81. which took
sixteen bushels of corn; today the
same corn will shoe five horses.
Thirty years ago n bill of lumber
on $1,000 for one year took 1000 bush
els of corn. The same bill, which to-
day is $1,000, will take $500 bushels
of corn, leaving 1,5OO bushels OF corn
10 sell, bringing 5000, which you still
have left after being robbed of the
$500 advance. Now. this you can do
nate TO the poor or buy more land.
Thirty years ago you paid 500 in
terest on $1,000 for one year. which
took 400 bushels of corn; today the
same corn will pay interest on S4.sCO
for one year.
IL contend. all things considered, that
you can buy a farm at the advanced
price of today and pay for it easier
than YOU could thirty years ago"

CHANGE IN TUITION

For several years Alma with
other colleges, has thought it
would be advisable to increase the
charges for tuition IN the several
departments of the school, since
the amount paid in the past by the
students covers only small part
of the total running expense of the
institution. As the student BODY
increases the expense of running
the college necessarily increases
while the fees paid by students do
not come nearer to detraying the
expenditures but, on the contrary,
fall behind. 1t is safe to say that
every department could make more
rapid PROCESS if more money
could be obtained and in no case is
this more true, perhaps, than in
that of the library and athletics.
In the past we have depended
largely on contributions for pur-
chasing new books and paying for
magazine subscriptions. But there
is nothing definite and nothing
certain in such a system Con-
sequently the results have been
unsatisfactory. In the department
of athletics the situation has come
to a crisis. We were fcce to face
with the proposition of raising
more money or disseminating inter-
collegiate contests entiIely, a thing
which has proven unsatisfactory
and even disastrous IN some cases.
A short time agob the student
body petitioned the facuIty for the
privilege of raising the athletic fee
from $500 per year to $500 For
a short time the outcome seemed
rather dubious but last week at a
meeting OF the Board of Trustees
the matter was slaughtered out i'm
a manner pleasing to AL
In the past the charges for tuit-
ion were MS follows:
college Tuition per year 5000

A Profitable Enterprise.

The Johnson County (Kanl Coop
erative association has. from the small
beginning in 1876 with a capital OF
$500. at the end of its thirty-second
year increased its capital to 100000
and has made sales to the amount of
S7,22G,003.44, with net profit to the
of SAT-. 919.S2.

In laying the cornerstone of one of

hence will have improved on that corn.
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1910-02-24
In the future the charges will be

In the future the charges will be
as follows:
College Tuition per year 5000
Incidental Fee 1000
kindergarten Tuition 1000
Incidental Fee 1000
Academy Tuition 800
Incidental Fee 1000
Commercial School 5000
Incidental Fee 1000
Under this SySem the charges for
tuition in the college and academy
will be covered exactly by the
income from free scholarships, in
the case of those fortunate enough
to obtain them. The charges in
in the Commercial Department are
the same as those in the college.
OF the totalamount paid in through
the incidental fees 40 per cent will
be applied to general athletics; 40
per cent is to be turned into the
library fund and 20 per cent goes
toward the expense of caring for
the gymnasium and purchasing
new equipment From the last two
funds$5O00 is to be taken for the
museum, two thirds of the amount
to be taken from the library fund
and one third from the gymnasium
fund.
AT first drought the fee charged
for athletics may seem high but
when YOU remember that all those
paying the ten dollar yearly fee are
to be admitted to all games free it
does not seem unjust. Students
taking music or art do not pay the
incidental fee and of course do not
receive a free ticket. The same is
turi Of special students taking from
] to 5 hours of work. Those taking
from o to 9 hours of work pay half
the incidental fee sni receive Il
half ticket; e they viii be charged
half the regular admission
