WHY MORRN

An organized attack is being made
on the tariff in its relations TO the
agricultural population. The means
employed is publicity. The services
of writer's on agricultural subjects
have been secured and farm papers
have been employed TO convince the
farmer that he is a specially selected
victim
The attack is baseu on the sudden
activity Of Argentina in the corn mar
ket. The charge is made that Amer
lean corn has been driven out Of Eu
rope and that it does not stand an
equal chance with Argentina corn in
the Atlantic and gulf states. Further
than this it is assumed that farmers
of the middle west may make up their
minds to accept ten cents less a
bushel for their corn on account of
this competition.
If this is admitted to be true the
situation is by no means discouraging.
The farmer of the middle west has al
ways had a better and more profit
able outlet for his corn than the mar
net VI Lui VPc VI any OOhCA MAJ hSb'
IL has been demonstrated that by feed
ing his corn to stock it's value is ma
terially increased. He has too long
taken what he has regarded as the
easiest way of disposing of his corn,
and for that reason has been content
with a smaller profit than he might
have obtained by feeding it,
The consumer needs the meat the
, land needs the stock and the farmer
needs the additional profits and bene-
/ fits he will obtain by feeding his corn
on his own place. This IS matter
of mutual benefit. Why should the
/ farmer worry over Argentina?

PURE PRIMARIES POSSIBLE

Those representatives in congress
from Indiana who demur at the pro-
posal to make vigorous primary
election plank a part Of the next
democratic state platform, lean on a
broken reed when they point to the
so-called failure of primaries in Indi-
annapolis and Terre Haute as reason
for abandoning further attempts in
that line.
Snug politicians always vOciferate
against the primary principle. and
point To the corruption of primaries
or 10 the failure of public officials
nominated by primary, saying, See
what it brings!"
The evils of primaries. as they have
been manifested in Indiana, have been
due in practically all cases to the vice
Of politics and not to the irresponsi-
bility of the people.
There is, of course, little room for
hope in a primary dominated, as We're
the old time conventions, by political
bosses and their satellites. But the
fact that politicians have construed
the primary as a pretense and have
proceeded TO manipulate ii. as they
manipulated delegates gatherings be-
fore. is not proof of any fatal defect.
Rather. il argues for further safe
guards on the primary 10 make it
npletely an expression of the whole
populace. and to make chicane and
corruption possible. - Indianapolis

already ancient arbutus, freed from
the snow that gave il birth, Will be

be bright red berries mid the moss,
down in the country. little more than
a month frOh4-now, and the bloodroot
will be getting ready to perform the
annual miracle of those wonderful
white petals. And then the johnny
jumpups will soon be making azure
the tawny fields and friendly jack-in-

from little children in grasses and
weeds now growing high. And the
lilac buds will begin to swell and the
branches of the apple tree. which have
stood out all winter stark and bleak.

little arms through the soft earth,
near to the periwinkle, and over in the
corner the hills of corn will look very
fine indeed-down in the country.

fundamental studies-readin'. writin'

son why history should ne read or
studied when there is So much to do

But there are many reasons why
history should be read by both the
young and old. Not necessarily the
cold facts and figures OF the school
histories but the stories OF the past
written in interesting narrative form.

by intrepid explorers in past and even

ton and encouragement for the most

lowing the records Of the explorers
of those then unknown regions are
stories OF pioneers whose battles
against storm and beast and savage

perienced by those who had gone be

Their fights were for food and shell
ter first and for their homes and fam

years OF subsequent history of th'
