narrow escape from death on the
freight elevator yesterday afternoon
shortly before six o'clock. lie was go
ing up with the elevator and at the
same time looking out OF a back win
dow OF the building, bending his head
over the back railing of the elevator In
order to do so, when his head caught
between this railing and n ledge that
projected from the back wall.
II was fortunate that his head was
turned sidewise. or his skull would
probably have been crushed. As II was
his whole body was raised from the
floor and almost turned upside down.
while the head dragged along between
the ledge and the elevator. When the
elevator rose a bit higher and the
ledge was passed. the boy dropped in
side the elevator. He quickly stagger-
ed to his feet and stopped the ele-
vator. He then went downstairs again
with the elevator. He did not seem to
realize how badly he was hurt.
His head was bleeding on several
places and he went over 10 the sink
to wash of the blood. Here he was
noticed by Elmer Glenn. who was
working nearby. and II was discovered
that the left ear was almost severed.
This had been done by the head
striking against a slightly projecting
nail. There were some bad gouges
elsewhere on the head add bad
wound In the left shoulder. The hoy
was taken to the Office of Dr. T. C.

THE VITAL PROBLEM Of
AGRICULTURE
BY Peter Radford.

There is no escaping the market
problem and the highest development
of agriculture will not be attained
until it is solved, for a market
is as necessary for the producer
as land on which to grow his crop.
Governmental and educational insti-
tutions have spent s1S0,000,000 in the
United States during the past ten
years for improving soil production
and improving seeds and plants, but
very little attention and less money
has been given to the marketing side
of agriculture.
The problem is a monumental one
and one which will never be solved
until it gets within the grasp of a
gigantic organization where master
minds can concentrate the combined
experience and wisdom Of the age
upon it. 1t is problem which the
farmers, merchants, bankers, editors
and statesmen must unite in solving.
The Farmers Union stands for all
there is in farming from the most
scientific methods of seed selection to
the most systematic and profitable
plans OF marketing, but does not be-
lieve in promoting one to the neglect
of the other. We consider the work
Of farm demonstrators valuable and
we ask that governmental and com.
mercial agencies seeking to help US.
continue to give US their assistance
and advice, but we believe that their
influence should be extended to the
marketing side of our farm problems
also.
We cannot hope to develop manu-.
featuring by over-production of the
factory; we cannot build up mercan-
tile enterprises by the merchants load
ing their shelves with surplus goods
and no more can we develop agricul.
ture by Cutting the market with
surplus of products.

DARIUS

The neigh of horse made Darius
King of Persia, the six contending
powers for the throne agreeing among
themselves that the one whose horse
should neigh first should possess the
kingdom. This ancient method of
settling disputes among politicians
could be revived with profit today.
If our partisan factions and petty pol.
iticians could only settle their dis.
putes by the neigh of a horse, the
bark of dog or the bray of donkey.
1t would be a great blessing and would
give our citizens better opportunity
to pursue the vocations Of industry
free from political strife.
Let those who pick political plums
by raising rows and who fash swords
dripping in the blood Of industry IN.
derstand that they cannot turn the
public forum into a political arena and
by o clash of personal aspirations
still the hammer and stop the pillow
and that their quarrels must be settled
In the back alleys of civilization.

FREE PORTS
BUILDERS Of
COMMERCE
CONGRESS SHOULD GIVE THEM
PREFERENCE IN APPRo-
PRIATIONS.
BY Peter Radford.

This nation is now entering upon
an era of marine development. The
wreckage Of European commerce has
drifted to our shores and the world
war is making unprecedented de-
mands for the products Of farm and
factory. In transportation facilities
on land we lead the world but our port
facilities are inadequate, and our flag
is seldom seen in foreign ports. If
our government would only divert the
energy we have displayed in conquer
ing the railroads to mastering the
commerce of the sea, a foreign bot
tom would be unknown on the oceans
highways.
This article will be confined to a
discussion Of our ports for the pro-
ducts of the farm must pass over our
wharfs before reaching the water. We
have in this nation 81 ports, Of which
Al are on the Atlantic and 10 are on
the Pacific Coast. The Sixty-second
Congress appropriated over s51, 000,-
900 for improving our Rivers and
Harbors and private enterprise levies
a toll of approximately s50,000,000
annually in wharfage and charges for
which no tangible service is rendered.
The latter item should be lifted off
the backs of the farmer of this ma
ton and this can be done by Congress
directing its appropriations to ports
that are free where vessels can tie up
to wharf and discharge her cargo
free of any fee or charge.
A free port is progress. 1t takes
out the unnecessary link in the chain
of transactions in commerce which
has for centuries laid a heavy hand
upon commerce. No movement is SO
heavily laden with results or will
more widely and equally distribute
its benefits as that of a free port
and none can be more easily and ef-
fectively secured.
