A news dispatch from Washington

A news dispatch from Washington
states that President Wilson has di-
rected Attorney General Gregory to
investigate whether there have been
any violations Of law in the rise Of
prices of wheat and flour. It is said
also that United States district at
torneys all over the country are I'M
der instructions to investigate the
rise in food prices, and the Depart
ment Of Commerce will probably be
asked to investigate to what extent
the European war has been instru-
mental in increasing the export Of
wheat and -four. Congress also is
taking a hand in the investigation
and in some quarters especially in in
dustrial centers an embargo on the
expectation of food stuffs is strongly
advocated. Let all these investiga-
tions proceed, if DENIED desirable, but
we feel certain that no fault or viola
ton of law can be charged to the
farmers, who produce the things to
eat. We can see no reason though
for starting all these Investigations
in regard to what appears to be but a
natural rise in prices on the pro-
ducts Of the farm. Bread and beef
will never be as cheap as once they
were in this country The law Of
supply and demand regulates prices
of farm products to much greater
degree than it does prices Of other
r. IL e.
ers to organize for the purpose Of
fixing prices on their products, like
manufacturers frequently do. They
are too many and too scattered to do
anything of that kind And then it
is only within the last few years that
the farmers have been getting a
somewhat adequate return for their la
Dor. Instead Of begrudging the
farmers the increase in prices of
farm products, the people in the
cities and large industrial centers
should rejoice that the conditions of
the farmers have improved, and their
purchasing power increased to the
end that the wheels of industry may
turn still more swiftly. Fifty cent
wheat and fifteen cent butter, like we
had twenty years ago, would give
cheaper living to the peopleNin the
cities, but it does not spell prosperity
for the farmer, nor for the laboring
men. Farmers as a rule are willing
10 live and let live. They cannot
eat all they produce and must sell
part, at prices that are generally fix
ed by the other fellow. And prices
have not yet reached the stage where
they may be considered exhorbitant
or unreasonable When the farmers
prosper all others will prosper with
them.

How | Made My Crop of Corn.
By Donald CRANE ZIG yrs. old)

BY Donald CRANE ZIG yrs. old).
l planted Minnesota No. % which
was furnished me by the Warren
High School. After I received the
corn I tested it by the rag doll meth
cd. ! took four kernels from each
ear and the kernels were taken in a
spiral shape, from bottom to top. It
tested 100 per cent.
The acre that I selected for my
corn plot was hear a grove, the grove
sheltering it on the west. Barley
had been grown on this land the pre-
vious year. The ground was fall
plowed. AS soon as the snow was
gone in the spring I fortified the
land lightly with five loads of barn
yard manure. Then I disced the land
so as to mix in the fertilizer. The
corn was planted May 18th. checked
it in, planting from to 4 kernels in
the hill, and before planting I rolled
the land with four horse roller so as
to make a firm seed bed. In few
days the corn came up and I had a
good even stand. l cultivated it for
the first time on June first. I used
shovel cultivator until the corn was
about two feet high and then I used
a Tower surface cultivator. After
the first cultivation the Canada this
ties came up SO thick that I had a
hard time to keep. them down. When
the corn was too tall to cultivate any
more, I dragged between the rows
with a section Of a harrow which did
excellent work in keeping down the
thistles.
On account Of the warm weather
the corn ripened early and was way
ahead Of the frost. On September
26th, with the help Of Mr.. Neraal of
the Warren High School I checked up
the yield of 81 bushels. 1 took ten
of my best ears to the Marshall coun-
ty fair and took first prize in a con-
test Of fifty-eight boys who made en-
tries.

Italy which thus far has kept out of
the European war, has been visited
by a calamity scarcely less terrible
than war. In the space of a few min
utes about $4,000 people were killed
or wounded in the great earthquake
which on Jan. 18th spread death and
destruction over large district of
the country. Not in a hundred years
has Italy suffered such a catastrophy.
The damage to property is enormous

WHY ELECTRIC LIGHT
BILLS ARE HIGHER
Shortest Days Make Largest Bills
Increase Of Dark Hours Necessi-
tates More Electric LIGHT

Increase of Dark Hours Necessi-
tates More Electric Light.
This is the season of the year
when the irate householder rushes
down to the electric light office and
complains about his bill.
"Just take a look at that!" shouted
one complainant as he slammed the
bill down on the cashiers window.
Its twice as much as it was in Sep
TENDER when ] had house full of
company and just the three of us all
alone last month, eh ~
The cashier took a look as he
smiled.
"0f course he nodded, "Quite
naturally"
quite naturally, Ell" snorted Mr..
Householder, II suppose if I burned
candles your bill would be just
IF you burned candles your bill
would be exactly the same proper
tion," interrupted the cashier. "That
is you would burn about twice as
many candles in December as YOU did
in September"
Then the cashier took down a little
chart, handed it to the customer and
began to explain.
Just suppose you went to bed at
nine o'clock every night in the year.
In September the sun sets at 600 D.
m. and it is dusky at 6:2O p. M, so
you have to turn on the electric lights
at that hour. This means you would
have to burn the lamps two hours
and forty minutes before retiring. At
the end of the month you would burn
the lamps total Of eighty-two hours.
Now December is the darkest month
OF the year, the sun sets at 4 :49 %. m.
and it begins to get dark or dusky at
1922 p. M, SO you have to light the
lamps. This makes a total of nearly
six hours day or ITS hours for the
month. So, you see, the hours for
December lamplight are twice as
many as in September"
Here, stamp that bill paid and
give me tn change" interrupted the
man. II guess see your point
take the chart with you," an
swered the clerk
The chart shows that June is the
lightest month of the year. If one
went to bed at nine o'clock the lamps
would be necessary for only 40 min
utes day or 20 hours a month. On
this same nightly schedule Of going
to bed at nine the hours of darkness
per month would be as follows: Jan
uary, 157 hours; February, 115 hours;
March, 96 hours; April, IS hours;
May, 81 hours; June, 20 hours; July,
26 hours; August, so hours; Septem-
Der, 81 hours; October, 1T hours;
November, 1852 hours; December, It's
hours.
During the summer months dusk
follows As minutes after sunset, ow-
ing to the sloping path Of the sun be-
meath the horizon. On the other
hand, during the winter months
clouds and mists often obstruct the
suns disk so that even long before
the sun has sunk below the horizon
the illumination in the sky has fallen
to a value comparable to that Of the
summer twilight above referred to.
It is this effect, often overlooked,
which contributes to the purely as
Economical effect of the shortening
days.
Everybody has something to adver-
tise. The Sheaf Want Ads are the
best and the cheapest way.

be a funny bunch of commissioners

papers offer to circulate the county

It seems like poor judgment to turn
