VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
Let Farmers he Sellers.


Sir,-I havo read with much interest an
article In your paper OF July 21st. entitled
Farmers and the High Cost of Living" and I
wish TO go on record as indorsing most heartily
tho sentiment contained therein
IL we could only educate our good farmers
to realization of the great Importance OF rails
Ing everything they need for homo consum ption
that Is possible they would soon find out that
1t would take only a little money to answer
their purposes. They could easily lay aside n
nice ilttle nest egg every year for the future
IL seems clear to mo that good farmers
should raise little surplus at least. OF every
thing, and be sellers. Instead Of buyers In many
cases They would soon occupy n much more
independent position in life and be more com :
PORTABLE financially. The farmer Is the bone and
sinew of our country who keeps up everything
else. NO one would rejoice than I to
see them The most prosperous and independent
CLASS or all. When they prosper OF course
everything else prospers with them.
w nat we need is the Intelligent and thinking
farmer, who uses his brain and common sense
rs we'll as his muscle. AS William II. H." we'll
says III the farm is conducted on business
principles and proper thought. intelligence
industry and economy is used, he will
nave such varied assortment OF produce
to sell that there will be cause to complain
or nigh prices which he Will participate in TO
inc extent OF everything he has sell. and
happiness and prosperity will crown his effort

COUNTESS INA
ENGAGEMENT HAS BEEN AN
NOUNcED AND IT is SAID AN
EARLY WEDDING is CERTAIN
BE AUSE HoHEMzoLLERN
PRINCES DO NOT BELIEVE IN
LONG ENGAGEMENTS.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Berlin, July THE fact that Ho-
henzoliern princes have never been
given to long engagements leads an
interested public to believe the mar
rage OF Emperor Williams fifth son,
Prince Oskar, to the Countess Ina
Marie Won Bassewitz-Levetzow will
be celebrated shortly. No date how
ever, has yet been set. The engage
ment was announced, as reported by
cable, on May 26, to the surprise Of
Berlin society, since it means a NOR
ganatic marriage, contrary to the ira
ditions of the Hohenzollern family
There are plenty of instances where
that tradition was broken, but this
will be the first time in sixty years
that any Of the Hohenzollernns have
married beneath their rank. King
Frederick William III himself did so
in 1924 when he married the Countess
Harrach after the death of his first
wife. Prince Adalbert. nephew of
Frederick William ", did SO when he
married the Viennese dancer, Therese
Elsler. Another and the latest in
stance is that of Prince Aldrec chit,
brother Of Frederick William ". who
married a Fraulien Won Rauch daugh-
ter OF a former minister of war, in
1853.
The empress is widely credited for
obtaining the imperial sanction of
Prince Oskars intention to marry the
be a true love match. She knew the
young woman well, for she had served
as her maid of honor until 1913
when the close attachment between
her and the prince is said to have re-
suited in her resignation of service
She is described as tall and graceful,
beautiful and of q sunny temper
While her rank is that of lower nobiI-
ity, her family lineage has been traced
back as far as 1854 to one Bernhardus
de BassewiCZc. and the title of Count
dates from 1926. She undoubtedly will
win some new title when she becomes
the emperOr's daughter-in-law
She may make her husband a large
land owner, as her father. Count Karl
Won BaSSewiCZ- LevetZow. owns six
large estates i'll Meck1enOurg and
Prussia. He has for years occupied
prominent position in Necklenburg
society ana politics ana has been min
lister president Of the little state.
Prince Oskar has had the training
of a typical PrusSiGn officer. The
emperor did not send him 10 \ uNiver-
sity, as n lid al the other princes eN-

the family. Although Oskar's general
