TWELVE ACRES.
--- -. ~
4eSSkAS.A

Mr.. Hunts scheme of twelve-acre
farms may not result in a rush from
the bigger farm tenants toward twelve
acre holdings but it has all the essen
tails Of a good home in it. The man
who seeks the factory to work for 4
a patch of twelve acres with the labor
of year put on it will pay him more
than any factory can and leave him
his own superintendent and boss.
does it. It's the man. Some men
haven't enough executive ability to
farm twelve acres. Some men seem
to be created to work under orders.
They don't seem able to handle them
selves. And those would make
mighty poverty stricken spot out Of
the twelve-acre farm.
But the right kind of a man with
the right kind of training and the in
dustry and purpose can live on twelve
acres. have a Ford and all kinds of
fun and good clothes and stuff to eat
aid money in the bank. 1t depends on
the man on the acres and the woman
inside the house
This talk about living in town is
mostly poppycock. 1t isn't where you
live. its how. A working woman was
talking about Marshalltown the other
day She was disguised. No place to
go. Sham society. Ali that stuff She
desired the big city. Cost less to live
there than here Now she can't live
in the city as cheaply and as well as
in this town. She can't have the
friends there that she can here. The
fact is that we may see bigger lights
on store fronts, feel the rush of greater
crowds and imagine ourselves a bat
tleship in the fleet when we are only
canoes, but it's a much cheaper ex-
istence than a good clean job in good
clean small city or town And that's
as true between the twelve acres and
the cheap house or the fiat and pic
ture show at night The twelve acres
have the best Of it for the man and
woman who are content to work and
prosper and use Judgment.
A twelve acre patch is a lot Of lapd.
It is enough to keep any one man busy
as bee from spring to fall. And il
any man can keep busy on the soil for
nine months working with even
modicum Of Judgment and not make
good living he's hopeless. It's to the
wheelbarrow and the boss and ten
hours at 20 cents for him.
Here's hoping that Mr.. Hunt will
try out the twelve-acre proposition.
He's money enough to work with. All
that remains is to find the man.

four or six?
1t is impossible to build road too
good for Iowa. We want the best;
but we desire to balance cost and cut
our coats according to the cloth. But
why not look over the samples, talk
with the tailors and know instead of
jumping to conclusions without COM
plete investigation. And why not look
into the matter personally and indi-
vidually instead of ticking the bald as
sertion Of demagogs or Of students?
There's nothing about this road ques-
ton that the average farmer and bust
ness man can not understand as easily
as financing farm purchase or build
ing a business block. Let's quit froth-
ing at the mouth and get down to
straight business figures on the road

When the fire bells clang in the city

And the motor engines come rushing
No ring on the pave Of the horses feet,
No tense emotion and stifled cry

think again OF the vanished years.
When we followed the engine for many
a mile
In the days of the old time volun-
teers,
It's noble sight in these later times
To see the trucks and the engines
pass,
With their quick response TO the sig
nal chimes
And the stain and smell of the burn
But out of the shadows it seems so
sweet
To catch glimpse of those ancient
peers
That clutter of men and rush of feet,
When the engine was pulled by the
volunteers!
There was something fine in the way
they came.
And something noble in how they
gave
Life and limb as they fought the fame,
And strove to rescue and toiled to
save.
There's music yet in the echoing
sound
That comes again to my listening
ears
The bells have rung, to the fire they're
bound
Hurrah for the old time volunteers!

LET'S QUIT Fao7H,Ne AT THE MOUTH.

The Panama canal cost somewhere
about s40O00O,0OO. That is almost the
sum over which so much discussion
has been going on as loan to the
allies The canal has been built and
paid for by those now living and of
this generation. After that it will
exist in perpetuity for the benefit per-
haps of hundreds Of future generations
at cost Of maintenance. AS it is hoped
that the canal will be able to maintain
itself it amounts to gift from those
who pay now to those who shall pro-
fit by it.
There isn't good reason to advance
why those who are to use the canal
after this generation should not pay
some part of it's cost Most Of us can
agree to that. The canal shortens the
snip route between New York and
Frisco by double the length Of South
America 1t is worth the money.
Now about a good road. Is there
any good reason why those who use a
road built to withstand the wear of
thirty years should not help pay the
cost Of building it? Wouldn't 1t be
perfectly fair to ask the man who
drives along that road ten years after
it was made to pay a small part Of the
cost? Why should it be paid for on
the nail today to be given gratis to
the next generation? Wouldn't those
who should use it as the roads will be
used ten years hence thank this de-
cade for its enterprise and gladly bear
their small share Of the hrst cost?
And If this road may be built with
out spending more real money than II
required to maintain a poor road Il
there any reason why we should not
consider it? Why should we fly of
the handle and refuse to study figure
costs merely because somebody said
that IL was a scheme to tax us? Ii
thera any good reason why we
shouldn't do little figuring ourselves

THEY SHOULD WORRY.

Men who crave for liquor will get it,
law or no law.-Iowa City Republican.
Some of them will get it, Some of
them will be able when the tempta ton
is taken from under their noses to quit
it and forget If.
That's the difference between drum
ming up cravings and seeking to salts
~ them. It's the difference between
making business and desire seeking a
chance to trade: the difference be-
tween advertising and hidden bust
ness kept on the sly.
The prohibitory Law can be enforced
doubt Of that. We can have logical
and reasonably effective enforcement.
The people are ready for it. The sa-
loonists Of the class who refuse to
conduct blind pigs and do bootlegging
are getting ready for it, The Burling-
ton Gazette, from one of those river
towns" answering the question what
after the saloon" replies bar fixtures
for sale at bargain We are down
tc brass tacks on the proposition.
Given officials prompt and ready to
carry out the provisions of the law
there viii be no serious trouble over
enforcement. AS the Republican sug-
gests those whose craving drives hard
enough will get something to make
drunk come. But those do not usually
live long unless they reform. We shall
have to 90 the best we can with them
until they slip away and cease from
troubling themselves and others. They
are the unfortunates, such Of them as
are not vicious.
Let's not worry too much over pos
sibilities. Let's elect officials that
mean business and go right to work
doing business. If we snail do So then
the troubled question of liquor will
settle itself in a short time, very
short time, and we can turn our hands
freely TO other important tasks which
await the people of Iowa.
AS TO worry over the droutty con-
tingent and how they will get it, why
they should worry.

Drifting, Say. Van AI,tin,,

Where, oh, where are we drifting
We, who are looked upon as a religious
and progressive nation and can not
learn lesson from barbarous Europe
NCur great father in Washington Is now
approving a measure for the annual
expenditure of $1S4,0OO,00O for military
purposes.
And there are now several battle
ships in course of construction to cost
SIS, 100000 each, that are costing us
$4,000, 900 apiece more than they could
have been built for before the present
! war. And the farmer pays the bills
No one but Jackass would think OF
such thing, and no man with an
atom Of business sagacity would think
OF branching out on an inflated mar
ket, unless they were forced to, as
England is.
Any sane man ought<to see that our
extra preparation for war at this par
ticular time is absurd. unless we ex-
pect an instruction in our own coun-
try" for every one knows that the
nations Of Europe are SO saddled with
debts, and so depleted in money and
men, that when the present war is
over, whoever wins. that there will be
no fight in them for hundred years
to come.
Again, this is a progressive age, and
the destructive war engines Of today
may have been SO improved upon as
to be fit only for junk in a few years.
Yes, good times are upon us, munition
factories are working overtime, Beth
lehem steel advanced % points in one
day, and hogs went down 81 in less
than forty-eight hours, and both from
the same cause, over production.
Is there q brother farmer that is
reaping any benefit to speak of from
this war! To be sure. potatoes are
soaring. but that is not on account Of
the war, but because we could not
raise any. Hogs have been on the
shelf for over year. cattle are a
ticklish proposition to handle right
now and May corn quoted at 81 cents;
with an absolute certainty of less than
40 per cent of marketable crop in sight
this year. Did we get what we ought
to for last years corn crop? What
are oats worth now?
Whatever we have to buy is above
par, and what we have to sell Is be-
low. And il it We're not for Mr.. Ford
we could not afford Ford. Sure our
pockets are bullying out with paper,
but the banks are holding it, and be-
fore another oat crop is harvested
they will be so tight that dynamite
will not open them.
This military proposition and extra
bond issue are democratic measures
and simple. The jack had his head in
the pork barrel until 1t was emptied
and we hear no more about it. Now he
wants to build up pie counter on a
military platform.
Now do not be deceived, while the
leader may be all right in way. we
can not keep him without keeping the
jack. SO watch your chance and when
the time comes kick 'em out.
Our exchequer was full four years back
Which made good feeding for Mr.. Jack;
Give US good man, with the right
knack
And we'll beat them to fragile on the
race track.
Still. when the elephant gets out on
the track,
All he can expect to win. is an empty
sack.

The slow puncture is something
which happens to an automobile when
the last inner tube has been used In
propping up a blow out. 1t can be
detected without any difficulty by
low, mournful hiss which allows one
Of the rear tires to lie down on its back
and die a natural death.
Slow punctures are caused by q wire
nail secreting itself in the tire and as
Stunning an alert attitude. The nail
holds the air in and the inner tube in
a firm grasp until the scar Is on side
road in the country. when it exhales
eighty pounds of free atmosphere from
the garage in a pleasing diminuendo.
AS air is the only thing in garage
which is free, the financial loss is
slight.
Some automobile drivers outwit the
slow puncture by carrying collection
Of homeless inner tubes under the rear
seat. AS these tubes have all been
given a local anaesthetic or two, and
carry more scars than an Indian
fighter, they give way at some vital
spot with great rapidity and serve as
an effective check upon the speed
mania. One Of the saddest experiences
