IOWA FARM LANDS.

The farm lands OF this state have ad-
yanced phenomena,ly in value during
the past decade. Ten years ago farms
could have been bought in the vicinity
OF Tama FOR $50 and $50 an acre-farHis
that could not be bough: today for $3.50
It takes q man OF means 20 own 100
acres OF land unless he bough, II when
Il was cheap and saw Il raise IN value
during his ownership. A young man
just starting IN life can not hope to Sc
cure possession OF farm OF such value
as recompense for the TOLL of his hands
His thoughts naturally turn TO cheaper
lands IN the west and the northwest
and the Herald has never. by word or
deed. questioned his judgment when he
started TO far country TO do the pio-
neer work that his father did here in
Tama county forty or fifty years ago.
Even tho he went 20 Canada this paper
has laid no straws in his way. A re-
cent issue OF the Tfaer Clipper
asserts that the Herald has IN the past
made sport Of those who have crossed
the line and become subjects o: the
ruler Of Great Britain, but, as q matter
OF fact, the assertion OF the Traer paper
Is absolutely false, the Herald having
always regarded investments In Canad-
ian farm lands as good investments
and its sGitor having RETAINED from
making such investments on his own
account only because he has lacked the
necessary capital TO take advantage of
opportunities that have been generous
~ offered him. But let US return to the
census question. Taking into consid

Why woodrow Wilson shaved.

New YORK Iriouhe.1
A. Is we'll known, Woodrow wilson
has a clean shaven face. But 1t was
not always thua Once, when Dr.. VII
son was q young lawyer. pleading
cause IN a North Carolina court, ne
perceived that his most attentive U.s.
renec was the sheriff OF the county,
who sat with mis- feet on the stove and
with his eyes on the attorney. The
young advocate was greatly encouraged
by the interest manifested by SO dis
tinguished an officer. and was encoor-
AGED to increase his efforts still 1urther
TO enchain the attention % that auditor.
When ne had finished his address
with a rounded period Of glowing eio-
quence. he stepped toward the sherif1
to receive his encomiums. II was
dreadful shock to him when that Off
cial drawled out: Say, Wilson, do you
know that one Of your side whiskers
.s shorter than the other" The future

toskaioosa Globe].
The voters OF Oskaloosa will soon be
face to face with the proposition Of the
saloon consent petition. The present
petition Of consent expires July l, 1911,
and it is understood that already q
movement has been set on foot by the
saloonists to obtain enough signatures
to permit the saloons in Oskaloosa to
run another five years from that date.
Before the saloons can operate during
the next I'VE year period a majority Of
the voters voting at the election held
last Tuesday. must sign the petition.
The question L. now UP to the people
Of Oskaloosa- What will you do about
It:
