This is perhaps Of more than ordinary
importance in the case of barley and
is one of the matters that will engage
the attention Of the barley and hop ex-

DRIVING AUTOS IN TRAFFIC
MAKES GREAT RACE PILOTS.
Most of Worlds Motor Masters Have
Originally Started as chauffers In
City Streets, Where Quick
Action 10 Required.

Indianapolis, Ind.--Where does
the daredevil automobile race pilot
come from? This is the question
asked by hundreds of the spectators
who see the motor masters of today
rush madly around the great road
courses and speedways of the nation
in quest Of honor and gold.
The average race driver VINO is seen
in the space annihilating monsters
which careen wildly over the tracks
thinks no more of sending his steel
steed along at the death-inviting pace
than he would of driving a touring
car through the city streets-in many
cases not half so much. The fact of
the matter is that two-thirds or more
of the racing drivers of today were
traffic drivers of yesterday.
The greatest drivers of today have
been traffic and demonstration driv-
ers. Louis Chevrolet drove traffic in
New York City for five years; his
brother Arthur did the same. Victor
Hemery drove traffic in Germany many
years bClOIc NE IdCcQ Col. 4eoipA
DePalma was a traffic driver in New
York. wild Bob" Burman drove a
demonstrating car for several years.
Most of these drivers and many 9TH
ers will compete in the 500-mile In
ternational Sweepstakes Race over the
Indianapolis Motor Speedway, on Me-
mortal Day, May 80 next. There have
been nine entries made for the race
thus far as follows: Lewis Strang,
Louis Larsonneur and Joe Jagersbur-
ger, in Case cars; c. B. Baldwin, in an
Interstate $50; Johnny Aitken, in
National 40" 1911 Speedway model;
Frank p. Fox, of Indianapolis, in a
Pope-Hartford, and Louis Disbrow in:
the same make of car; Harry knight,
In a Westcott, the other entry being
Simplex, for which no driver has
been named so far. It is possible that
Ralph DePalma, the mile track cham
pion of 1910, will pilot this last named
car through the long grind.

BIBLE VS.. PROHIBITION.

Mr.. George G. Brown, a whiskey
merchant and manufacturer of Louis.
vile, KY, has written a very unique
little pamphlet on the subject ''The
Bible Repudiates Prohibition. It
IS compilation of all the verses in
the Bible containing the words
wine" or "strong drink" If any
body would like to see what sort of
an argument man could "put up"
on the subject, he can do so by read
ing Mr.. Browns pamphlet.
Anyway, what IS the difference,
whether the Bible is "for" or
"forninst'' prohibition of the liquor
traffic. People of today ought to
know better than the saints and
prophets of old whether the LIQUID
fire of the modern time is good o.,
bad for us.
Or rather, the question is whether
we shall continue to drank it-every-
body admits it is bad for US.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
A Farmers View.

Montpelier, Iowa, Feb. 23.-To the
Editor: The National grange is lob
bying against Canadian reciprocity,
as unjust to farmers. / am a farmer
and a granger, but ask you to punish
my protest against this action of the
grange.
So long as farmers produce mil
lions of dollars worth Of grain,
meats, etc., more than this nation can
consume, that must be disposed of in
the great world markets, so long will
their prices be set in those world
markets, and any schedule of pro-
tective duties placed upon them in
our tariff can blind the eyes of the
simple only; they cannot enhance
the price a cent nor benefit the farm
er a particle. Nor were they ever
intended to deceive farmers and there
by secure their support for exorbit.
ant duties for products of concentrat.
ed capital capable of regulating CON-
petition at home As soon as farm
ers and laboring men get their eyes
open exorbitant tariffs will cease to
exist.
Even Blaine and Mckinley advocat
ed reciprocity. President Taft has
availed himself of exceptionally fav.
orable circumstances just now exist
ing and has secured an agreement
that, if enacted into law, must in.
evitably promote friendiness and COM
merce between the two people and
the welfare of both. And of tina,
welfare we shall reap the larger
share, because in the better condition
to avail ourselves of added advantage
Our climate, population and wealth
all enable us to profit more by freel
trade relations than we lost thereby
Even in wheat; during the yeai
ending June 80, 1910, we. bought of
Canada only $135,441 worth and sold
more than IL times that amount of
wheat.
We bought of her $151,73S worth
of cattle and sold her 1925, 274 worth,
or more than twice as much as we
bought. And our total exports-or
sales-to Canada were 223,5O1 ,8O9
and our total imports-or purchases
from her were $104, 199,675, less
than half. Or we sold her more than
twice as much as we bought of her.
And more, we sold her 594 per cent
of all she bought from all foreign
countries, almost two-thirds of all
her imports, and bought only little
over one-third of her exports, 1878
per cent.
Fellow farmers and grangers, so
long as we cling to our duties that
are no benefit to us at all, we are in
no position to demand a reduction of
exorbitant duties that contribute
enormously to the wealth and power
of combinatins of wealth. Therefore,
let us stand by the president and
help him drive home this entering
wedge.
