officer is Secretary OF Agriculture
"Tama" Jim Wilson, for he has been
holding down that job constantly
since 1897. while he has seen more
than a hundred other cabinet officers
come in and retire to private life.
"Tama" Jim is the friend OF the farm

friends of his.
Secretary Wilson has made the de-

instrumentality of practical everyday
helpfulness to 40 per cent. of the peo-

too dry to be cultivable 1t has added
millions of bushels to our annual
wheat crop. He sent to Siberia, and
