Thou large and messy creature,
What brought thee here? May / not
know
With all thy cut and forlorn feature,
To all this world a Wondrous show.
High reared above the fields of wheat
That stretch away to distant hills;
All done by earth's internal heat;
That formed all Wales and rocks and
rills.
For ages thou hast lain unknown,
Among those tranquil rocks and
trees.
For ages birds have sung and flown,
Ger thee in soft and soothing
breeze.
The red men SLEPT aroud thy base
And whet their arrows on thy side;
At morn; to go out on the chase
And search for food, all far and
wide.
At last, now civilized mar has come
And cleared thy bordering woodland
plains,
And there set up his pretty home,
To shelter him from nov and rains.
From all the chimes the tourists come
To behold thy form, thou giant OF
rocks
Initials are even left by some,
On thee and neighboring granite
rocks.
1t seems, as each one strives to write
Above the top-most there before;
So should they also strive with might
In life, to reach the topmost score.

the independent creamery. 1t Is not
yet clear whether the Iowa law exact
~ fits the case.
The situation seems to be that since
the establishment of the farmers
creamery at Mount Ayr the concen-
traitor companies have engaged in
pretty fierce competition. The farm
ers' creamery pays more for cream
than was formerly paid, or more nearly
up to the butter price standard. Then
the concentration people come along and
pay l cent a pound more than the
farmers creamery. 1t Is insisted the
price by the concentration Is cents
a pound nearer to the Elgin butter
price than was paid before the farm
ers' company got into the field. OBJ
viously the purpose Is to freeze out the
farmers.
But it is question as to how far
amy law, state or national can go in
interfering with the law of competition
and curbing business rivalry. Business
men have right to vary prices and
have right to meet competition where
it exists, and perhaps to go competi-
ton one better How to prove that a
competitor is engaged in unfair COM
petition. as it is known in the law, is
a question.
Possibly it will not be settled by any
new federal legislation, but the effort
is being made to get 1t into the laws.
