Many Conditions Are Being Altered
From Decade to Decade.
What is more important is that the
Industries and resources of the country
should be available and ready for
mobilization. 1t is the more impera
lively necessary. therefore, that we
should promptly devise means for do
ing what we have not yet done-that
we should give intelligent federal aid
and stimulation to industrial and voca-
tional education. as we have long done
In the large field of our agricultural
industry; that at the same time that
we safeguard and conserve the natural
resources of the country we should
put them at the disposal of those who
VIII use them promptly and intelli-
gently, as was sought to be done In
the admirable bills submitted to the
last congress from its committees on
the public lands, bills which l earnest
ly recommend in principle to your con-
sideration; that we should put into
early operation some provision for
rural credits which will add to the ex-
tensIve borrowing facilities already
afforded the farmer by the reserve

by which long credits may be obtained
on land mortgages and that we should
study more carefully than they have
hitherto been studied the right adapta
ton OF our economic arrangements to
changing conditions
Many conditions about which we
have repeatedly legislated are being
altered from decade to decade, it is
likely to change even more rapidly
and more radically in the days imme-
diately ahead of US when peace has
returned to the world and the nations
of Europe once more take up their
tasks OF commerce and industry with
the energy OF those who must bestir
themselves to build anew. Just what
these changes will be no one can GER
tainly foresee or confidently predict
There are no calculable. because no

most we can do Is to make certain
that we have the necessary instrumen-

our service so that we may be sure

sized hunk of ice which was to be my
argument, Lohengrin came out of his
trance and started on. but Peaches
forgot her instructions and spoke
above q whisper and he stopped
again.
Then 1 took the reins. cracked the
whip, shouted q few paragraphs of
the language General Villa uses in
Mexico when he captures Federal
soldier, and away we rushed like the
wind-when 1t wasn't blowing hard.
The hours few by and we must have
gone at least half mile, when an
other Kerosene Wagon came bouncing
toward US from the opposite direction.
In it was happy party of ladies and
gentlemen, who were laughing and
chatting about some people they had
just run over.
Lohengrin saw them coming and
stopped still in the middle of the road.
Then he hung his head as low as he
could, and believe if that horse had
been supplied with hands he would
have put them over his ears.
The people in the Bubble began to
shout at US, and 1 began to shout at
the horse, and friend wife began to
shout at me, while Lohengrin stood
there and scratched his left ankle with
his right heel
Then the machine made q sudden
jump to the right and liked by US at
the rate Of about a 800 fine, while
the lady passengers in the cabin de
luxe stood up and began to hand out
medaIs to each other because they
didn't run us down.
Ten minutes later Lohengrin came
to and looked over his shoulder at us
with smile as serene as the morning
and once more resumed his mad ca
reer onward, ever onward.
We were now about two miles from
home, and suddenly we came across a
big red touring car which stood in
front Of a roadhouse. sneezing inward
ly and sobbing with all its corrugated
heart.
Lohengrin saw the machine before
we did.
He knew there must be an automo-
bile somewhere near, because he
stopped still and quietly passed away.
I jumped out and tried to lead him
by the Coroner's Delight, but he plant
ed his four feet in the middle OF the
road and refused to be coaxed-
took the horse by the ear and
whispered therein just what thought
about him, but he wouldn't talk back.

his lips curled with an expression

beer.
When explained the pitiful situa-
ton to him the chauffeur swallowed
two bottles of beer and began to cry.
Then he told the waiter to call him

thing about an automobile that affects
Lohengrin's heart. I think It is the
gasoline. The odor from the gasoline
seems to penetrate his mind to the re-
gion Of his memory and he forgets to
move. Lohengrin is fine horse, with
a most lovable disposition, but when
the air becomes charged with gasoline
he forgets his duty and falls asleep at
the switch"
that Lohengrin was q victim OF the
gasoline habit, and that he would
never leave that spot until the Bubble
went away, and that the Bubble
couldn't go away until the chauffeur
woke up, and that the chauffeur
couldn't wake up until his mind had
digested a lot OF wood alcohol. so she
jumped out of the trick sleigh for the
purpose of telling Lohengrin just what
she thought about him.
At that moment somebody opened

shrug of his shoulders in my direction.

Ostler Joe, the charge d'affaires OF
the barn, tried to stop Lohengrin and
ask for his credentials. but the equine
onion brushed right by and planted
himself and the droshky in the middle
of the barn floor, where he promptly
went to sleep again.
Just as we hurried away to flag an
approaching trolley car heard Ostler
Joe say to the slumbering Lohengrin:

The liveryman said that the name Of

LOhengrin used to be q fast horse,

Needed to Make Lines More Useful
Servants Of Country.
In the meantime may / make this
suggestion? The transportation prob
lem is an exceedingly serious and
pressing one in this country. There
has from time to time of late been rea-
son to fear that our railroads would
not much longer be able to cope with
it successfully. as at present equipped
and co-ordinated. I suggest that 1t
would be wise to provide for a COM
mission of inquiry to ascertain by a
thorough canvass Of the whole ques-
ton whether our laws as at present
framed and administered are as serv-
iceable as they might be in the solu-
ton of the problem. 1t is obviously
a problem that lies at the very foun-
dalton of our efficiency as a people.
Such an inquiry ought to draw out
every circumstance and opinion worth
considering, and we need to know
all sides of the matter If we mean to
do anything in the field Of federal leg
islation.
No one, l am sure, would wish to
take any backward step. The regula-
ton of the railways of the country by
federal commission has had admirable
results and has fully justified the
hopes and expectations of those by
whom the policy Of regulation was
originally proposed. The question is
not, What should we undo? 1t is
whether there is anything else we can
do that would supply us with effective
means. in the very process OF regu-
lation, for lettering the conditions I'M
der which the railroads are operated
and for making them more useful serv-
ants of the country as a whole 1t

legislation in this field is attempted.

was rs to 27e above last years prices,
with crop $50, 900, 900 bushels larger
