year mere bagatelle when meas
ured against the lucrative employ
ment and the buying power of the
millions of American laboring men?
ANOTHER SERIOUS PHASE
Important as is the employment
of labor, there is another very seri-
Gus phase of this problem which calls
for profound thought at the hands of
all thinking citizens, and especially
the farmer. In last weeks article
we cited the fact that in their des-
perate efforts to make both ends
meet many railroads are burning
the candle at both ends" that in or
der to bolster up their securities and
keep out of the hands of the receivers
the rolling stock and roadbeds of
many lines have been deteriorating
rapidly for a number of years and
hence are in no position to handle a
big seasons tonnage. shout the
strain of heavy crop year suddenly
descend upon them. That the great
foreign war will produce the highest
prices ever known for the foodstuffs
produced by the farmer is admitted
on all hands, and IL there ever was
a time when he will need adequate
and efficient shipping facilities 1t
will be during the next two or three
years and yet we are actually
facing perhaps the most prosperous
period the American farmer has
ever known with many american
railroads in a dilapidated physical
condition. No sooner had the great
European war burst upon the world
than Congress realized that our mer-
chant marine was utterly weak and
inefficient. Steps were at once
taken to make the best of the situa-
ton and to repair as speedily as pos
sible our neglected shipping facili-
ties upon the high seas-and that the
handicap has already cost the Amer
lean people millions of dollars during
the last few months is so patent that
it requires no extended comment. II
is one thing to have markets in all
parts of the world which have here
tofore been supplied by the great
warning nations begging for Amer
lean goods and foodstuffs--but 1t is
quite another thing to have Amer
lean ships in which to deliver these
cargoes.
Will we now add to the neglect Oh
an adequate merchant marine the
further folly of permitting our rail
roads to get into such weakened
physical condition that they will
break down under the strain of de.
livering the products of the farmer
and the manufacturer at our ocean
ports and thus largely waste the
great opportunity of profit which
the foreign war will unquestionably
bring to us? This is phase of the
present situation which commands
the serious thought of every farmer
in Iowa and the Corn Belt generally
for here Is where the lions share
of the nations foodstuffs are pro-
duced and here is where farmers can
not afford to be hampered by made
quate transportation facilities IL they
are to make the most of favorable
market opportunities.
There is not single manager of a
Central or Western railroad who will
not admit that the present supply OF
first-class freight locomotives and
box cars could not successfully meet
the requirements of several bountiful
crop years-and yet they haven't the
funds with which to supply this
equipment and thus be prepared for
the emergency when it comes-as 1t
undoubtedly will.

acre during the above period--but
upon even SO low a basis as $4,000
per acre the enhanced land values
of Iowa have added one billion, sew
en- hundred and fifty million dollars
to the wealth of Iowa farmers during
the last fourteen years. In view of
these facts, is it not to the interest
of the farmers of this state to insist
upon square deal" for the rail-
roads?
AS a matter of fact, were it not so
tremendously far reaching in it's eff
feet, the controversy over slight in
crease in railroad rates in any great
agricultural state would largely re-
semble tempest in teapot-a mat
ter which should be settled in the
brief space of time required to apply
the remedy. When private indus
try, great or small, advances the
price of its commodities we take 1t as
a matter of course and say nothing
about it-and in the past we have OPP
posed advances for the railroads
largely perhaps because the atten-
ton of the people has never been
directed to their Importance to the
community and the nation, because
they were angered at occasional a.
buses which strict government reg
ulation has forever eliminated and
because for some years designing
political opportunists have found
abuse of the railroads an easy road
to public preferment. That public
sentiment, however, is changing rap
idly and that we will soon reach a
sane understanding between the
people and the railroads, which are
so vitality essential to the agricultural
and commercial progress of every
community in the nation, is becom-
ing more and more apparent every
day. paid adv. to be continued) /.

BIND POPULATION OF .. S.

blind population of the United States
in 1910 numbered 57,272, or 62,3 to

in that year. Blindness is less COM
mon in America than in most other
countries; it has apparently decreased
the youngest classes of the
population In the last half eentuKys
it is more prevalent among men than
among women: It is very much more
prevalent among Indians, and consid-
erabIy more prevalent among negroes
than among whites: Trades taught in
schools or workshops for the blind
have equipped more than $500 blind
persons for total or partial self-sup-
