university, but the two men were
thrown little together.
The real reason for the selection Of
the Illinois man for assistant secretary
can be traced to the attention he had
paid to the new science of agricultural
economies. both in an academic and in
a practical way, and to the feeling on
the part of the administration that he
could be relied upon to be a thorough,
loyal. painstaking and sympathetic lieu

out the problems to which the Secretary
has set his hand.
Though still a young man. Mr.. vroo-
man began writing on public questions
as long as twenty years ago. Tanning
the Trusts" published in 1900. and
American Railway Problems" published
in 1910. are among his books, though
most of his writing has been for maga-
zines and periodicals Of the more thought
full tone. But he has not neglected the
laboration with his wife. who is the
daughter of Mrs. Matthew T. Scott, for

American Revolution. has written a book

He was born in Macon. Mo-. October %.
1872, at the time that Gen. Carl Schurz
was serving, serving as IS, United States senator
name is not hard to find. Mr.. Vroo-
man was educated at Washburn College.
Topeka, Kan, and at Harvard. from
which latter university he was graduated
in 1894. There he specialized in political
economy, and followed this up with a
course at Oxford University. England.

But farming Is his real business. al
though he always has had a fondness for
politics, too. Not until this year did
he ever go in for politics to the extent

nomination for United States senator to
succeed Senator Sherman of Illinois.
His chief purpose was to beat Roger
Sullivan of Chicago. who represented
Mr. Vrooman always has been opposed.
Another candidate. equally opposed to
Mr.. Sullivan, entered the race. and thus
presenting the possibility of the anti
Sullivan forces being SO divided as to
give Mr.. Sullivan the nomination. To
prevent this. If possible. Mr.. vrooman
withdrew.
Following his studies in Europe, Mr.
Vrooman began scientific farming. He
now operates between 1000 and 5000
acres in Champaign county. Illinois, and
in Iowa, either directly or through ten
ants over whom he has administrative
control.
Alfalfa is one of his fads. If a busi-
ness proposition that makes a sure
profit can be called a fad. No tenant
gets a lease on a Vrooman farm with
out first agreeing to devote a certain
acreage to alfalfa, and no tenant who
does not live up to such agreement Is
allowed to remain on Vrooman farm
long.
All this is in accord With tho vroe-

of the United States are gradually being
farmed more and more by tenants. That
is one of the several problems in agri-

considered and studied very thoroughly
by the department.
But, to resume, with view to max

last year to study the question in the
European countries where great ad-

THE farming business is a business
requiring long loans. and to put that
business on a sound and economic basis
in this country a system to meet the
need must be devised.

States is run on insufficient capital For
one thing, the landlord, as a rule, does

ask questions and make it embarrassing

"Short-time loans would do the farmer
no good Supposing that he wants to
buy herd of cattle for fattening. He
could not make his turn over in ninety
days at any sort of a profit, except for
ket. or, supposing that he wanted To
buy dairy herd: An even longer time

length of this trail led through pine
land where many long fallen, dead
green outstanding ones. A generation
or so ago that land had been hard
woods, but the oaks and the beeches
and the chestnuts being cut away for
things. the tract has grown up in
pines. Cut the hardwoods off a tract
and pines will follow.
A walk of mile led into a narrow
road. on one side of which is a cluster
of small frames, each with its own lit
tie garden. 1t is settlement of col
ored people and is called Lewisville.
Through this neighborhood the road Is
sandy and the adjacent fields are poor
and gravelly. supporting feeble
underfed but brilliant golden rod. A
persimmon tree, rich freighted with
golden fruit, stood by the wayside, and

The sandy road, turned to cobbles
and gravel. led down steep hill to a

bridge bearing the date 1889, under
which a confused and hurrying stream
churned itself into form over loose
rocks and giant powders. That is
Paint branch. On slight rise in the
land on the farther side stands
weatherbeaten frame house. That was
the home of the man who ran the mill
which at first made gunpowder and
then turned to the making of wooden
goods. The mill stood a few rods above
the bridge on the west side of the
creek, and today a deep mat of peri
winkle. generally called myrtle, covers
the site, while tall and close-growing
trees make 1t a damp and dismal place,
for there no sun enters from spring to
autumn, from the coming to the falling
of the leaves.
The friends of the Rambler told him
that further along the road, at the
top of the hill beyond the creek and the
next house along the road afser pass
ing the powder millhouse lived two men
-bachelors-who were descendants of
the olden miller and who slept on
blankets made in that mill. Climbing
out of the valley of the creek, the

hand outen the cornsheller when Ras
discovered to his deep disgust that he
had went and smashed finger.
Ras went to Doc Livermore to have
him dress the finger and soon as Doc
seen it he told Ras that the best thing
to do Was to cut off the hand jest at
the wrist becuz if he diddent blood
pizen was liable to set in and he might
haft to ampytate his arms and legs too
for that matter Ras askt Doc how
much it would cost to cut off his hand
and Doc said he ushually got $40 for a
job like that, but being as it was Ras
and sinst surgery bizness was dull he
would do it for IS and make a work.
manship job of it.
Ras said he couldn't afford the luck
shury of having his hand cut off at SIS.
and to go ahead and fix up the finger
and he'd take chanst on blood pizen.
Ras was stubborn and so Doc went &
done as Ras said and charged him so
cts Sinst then RAISES finger has been
doing fine and he'll save it and the
hand too. Doc says its jest his luck to
have things happen to him like that.
