FARM FACTORING.

| A big manufacturer of farm imple-
ments takes as a slogan. every farm
a factory"
That's what a farm is, or ought to
be-a factory where cost and produc-
ton and profit are figured right down
to the quick.
1t ought to be run like a factory.
| ought u have most modern machinery
and the best kind of management.
Take the factory: If figures cost close.
1t wastes nothing that it can save. It
has efficiency experts that figure the
aggregate number of steps 500 men
make in a day and seek to cut down
unnecessary waste of movement Why
in some of the big factories the dis
lance saved on all the employees in a
day by certain Encouragement would

The best managed fact Dry is the one
that loses least that makes the by
products pay wages and dividends.
Take the packers. 1t is asserted that
the by-products of the packing in
dustries make the profits of the in
vestors, Nothing gets away except the
squeal Of the pig and if there were a
market for squeals there'd be rec
ord made of every pigs whisper.
Notice that in a big shop not an iron
fling goes to waste nowadays. Just
notice how the factory takes it's profit.
And all that brings US naturally and
inevitably to the silo on the farm. It
is the difference between the old fac
tory methods when the pa ckers show

neglected the by-products and the

ference between the old way at the

scrap and nowadays when the check
that comes back from the accumulated
car loads of former waste carries the
interest on a big borrow. Why the
Ium Der mills save all their sawdust in
these times. This 5000 an acre land
means that everything but the squeal
must be saved on the farm factory.
The silo is a first aid TO the bank ac-

THE CASE OF THOMAS POST.

II is peculiar case. the IhomaS
Post, Of Paulding, o., who is now serv-
ing a two-year term at Fl. Madison.
The man was crossing Iowa to ranch
in North Dakota where he was TO work,
using bicycle as means Of transpor-
tation. Like Emily Post, he didn't find
the roads TO mis- liking and offered 20
sell the bike. The Sherlocks of Cedar
Rapids jumped TO the conclusion that
man who would offer bike for $3.50
must have stolen it and arrested Post,
They found a pistol on him and
changed the charge to that of concealed
weapons. Under advice it is said of the
police ne pleaded guilty and the Judge
sent him up for two years. The Cedar
Rapids Gazette instituted an investi
cation and found that the man was a
most religious person, was in the best
of repute at home as an industrious
man and good provider for mis- mother
who is now III 70 wnlcn juGse,, Hani.i
presidents, the sheriff and mayor and
marshal of his home town testify in a
sworn statement.
If the man was under arrest in any
city of the United States he would be
| imm ediately discharged on this show
| ing by those having such authority. He
should be let out Of the pen iHstanter.
But the parole board say they can't
do it until they meet some time in Oc-
tober The board should If necessary
! call q special meeting and send this
man on his way He has no business
in the penitentiary over night.
| Mainly 1t goes back to the court that
| sentenced a man without proven blem
ish on his character except that he
packed a pistol on bike trip across
country to term of years in a peni.
Tertiary. 1t is hard for the thoughtful
citizen to understand how the cour'
came to such a conclusion. Had Pos
been notorious criminal the case
would have been different. The sug-
gestion is that the court had been giver
the impression that the man was es.
pecially dangerous.
1t seems hard that this man whose
neishhho7s give him certificate of goot
character should be in the penitentiary
under two-year sentence while bat
men chase all over Iowa toting guns

down four years. 1t will show II on
Rtverside avenue one stretch mile
in length without q crack. Nor Is all
this merely "tolerably good" but Al
first class. Thoroughly satisfactory
concrete paving.
Sioux City pays from $1.02 to $1.l4
a square yard for concrete. something
like $2.05 for brick and around $40
for asphalt paving. City Engineer
johnson declares that at the same
price as either the brick or the asphalt
he would prefer the concrete. Hardly
day passes but requests come for
information as to how Sioux City lays
concrete paving. The fame of its
street improvement work has reached
all corners Of the United States. There
is no patent on the process, and Sioux
City is delighted to pass the recipe
along. If Iowa City is interested.
2-cent stamp will do the work.
Engineers declare that the Sioux
City system of laying concrete pave
ment Is in violation of fundamental
principlese Of construction. So be 1t.
The fact remains that Sioux City has
been getting better results than any
other city has been getting with con-
crete, and so long as this continues
to he the case Sioux City is not going
to worry about alleged violation Of
Fundamental principles. The main
thing Is that the pavement Is giving
satisfaction and evidently standing the
test of time.
The Press suggests that the good
roads commission which Governor
Clarke recently appointed to look into
the question of road improvement in
Iowa will have to find some way to
cure the defects of concrete paving or
offer some substitute for concrete at
price taxpayers can afford to pay be-
fore 1t can make any progress with the
road building proposition in Iowa. Why
not have the commission visit Sioux
City?

FROM A SALOON TOWN.
TCedar Rapids Republican,

OF course, we would not put the
saloon in the class Of the bawdy house,
altho the two often are closely ascot
ated. But the saloon represents to q
more or less extent evil and nothing
else. 1t promotes business along cer-
tain lines and 1t brings to cities many
people who might not otherwise come
there. But on the whole, it may be
found that Charleston may lose moth
ing by the change. At least that Is
still the boast Of Des Moines which has
now been suffering along without liquor
shops for the space Of about one year.
They st;I pretend to like 1t and they
even claim that all kinds Of legitimate
business has been more prosperous
since the people ceased TO pour their
moneys into the liquor shops.

WHAT is INDIAN SUMMER?


II this is Indian summer we will
gladly swap it for the imitation Of the
real article imposed upon us this year.
Burlington Gazette
But this isn't Indian summer. Indian
summer is not due until the latter part
of October or early in November. 1t
will come along some time after our
first snow. perhsps-''squaw winter"
SO called-when we have begun to fear
that summer. such as it has been, has
gone for good and all Indian summer
has been prettily described as the
dead summers soul" In way, it mig hit
be spoken of as summer lingering in
the lap of fall. AT any rate, it is one
of the most delightful times of the
year. Beware of limitations, however.
Do not imagine that the few good days
that may Yet remain of the so-called
summer with which we have been af-
fiicted during the last few months con-
stitute Indian summer. Indian sum-
mer is something to look forward to
not only with hope. but with conf
dence. 1t is one of the few things of
life in which realization Is fully as de-
lishtful as anticipation.
Webster tells us that Indian sum

weather in late autumn or IN early
winter. usually characterized by clear
or cloudless sky and by a haxy or
smoky appearance Of the atmosphere,
especially near the horizon. From
johnson we have it that the early col
onists believed the haze. with its blue
ness or smoke color. was real smoke
from the burning over OF western
prairies by the aborigines-hence the
name, Indian summer. Century. how
ever, attributes the name to the fact
that the phenomena of Indian sum-
mer are more distinctly marked in the
region that was chiefly occupied by
the Indians at the time the term be-
came current than they are in more
eastern regions. 1t explains the haze a
little more prosaically than did the
colonists on the ground that 1t is
simply the dust and the smoke which
are not blown away by the wind, but
float near the earth's surface
For all of which information, we
are, of course, duly grateful, but no
photographer can describe the down
right charm of an Indian summer. That
has to be experienced in person. And
1t is fair to expect that. in view OF the
disappointing character OF the white
mans summer of 1915. the Indian sum-
mer that follows in it's wake will be
especially full of charm.

ALLEN FOR GOOD ROADS.


The latest indications that the road
improvement question Is going to play
an important part in the gubernatorial
of Senator Joseph H. Allen, candidate
:c- the republican nomination. that he
proposes to incorporate in his plat
form a plan for improving the roads
He Is opposed to forcing better roads
on any community that does not want
them. but he favors allowing any
community to pave its highways that
does want to do so.
Senator Allen objects to the county
plan Of road improvement on the
ground that good roads should not be
circumscribed by county lines. In other
words. the advantage of any improve
ment would be greatly lessened II It
broke of abruptly at the county line.
His idea is to map out a continuous
roadway, say from Des Moines to
Sioux City, for an improvement dis
trict to include all the territory that
would be benefited by the paving Of
such q road and let those who would
be called upon to pay for the i'm
provement. and only those, vote on
the proposition to pave the road. Thus.
persons who do not pay taxes would
not be allowed to force improvement
work on those who would be called
upon to pay for It, II the vote Is
favorable the cost Of the Improvement
will be assessed in proportion to the
benefits, part Of the expense to be
borne by the towns. cities. townships
and counties thru which the road hap
pens to go, and also the state. It IS,
in fact, an elaboration Of the plan un-
der which the city OF Sioux City Is
paving the Correctionville road and
the Military highway. Senator Allen
plan provides for the rendering Of IL
nancial assistance by the state thru
the Issuance Of bonds.
On the face Of II Senator Aliens
plan appears to be worthy OF consid-
Grafton ;W'hats-e- progress is TO be
made toward better roads must be eff
| fected along conservative and prac-
| teal lines Too much must not be un-
dertaken all at once. Example and ed :
ucation will be important factors In
the development of sentiment. In Sioux
City, for instance, the expectation is
that the benefits which will accrue
fro lmthe Improvement Of the Correc-
tionville road and the Military high
way will be such that within few
years owners .of property contiguous
to other roads leading into Sioux City
| win be besieging the city council t.
order pavements for their respective
! highways. II good roads are as good
a thing as they are cracked up to be
the. problem Inevitably will be solved
I In just that Way-as the street paving
problem has been solved in just. that
way.
