SHE HAS HER POINTS

Behold the old pot-belled mare
Who stands besides the stack.
She is not stream-lined anywhere:
She has a sagging back.
The hair is worn from her sides
Where tug and trace have been;
Profound disgust with life abides
About the pendant chin.
Her draggled fetlocks reek with mud
Her tail is full of burrs;
No pride of race or purple blood
Or blue grass sires is hers.
Her sturdy pasterns, ff-bestrewn
Have blemisnes galore;
Through straw-filled name the breezes
Groom,
Each shoulder bears a sore.
But she has never cast a tire:
Her starter always works;
Her spark plug never fails to fire;
Her timer never shirks;
Her oil guage plunger never sticks:
And ne 'er has she, ween.

igable to st. Paul and it is planned to
bring the channel of the canal to that
point.
The canal also would pass through
the region of Red Lake, the largest
lake in the nation entirely within one
state. This lake gradually slopes into
vast expanses of swamp land without
shore line and it is primarily to drain
this huge territory that the canal is
proposed. River traffic from the gulf
to Winnepeg also is to be considered.

CRANKS' CONVENTION
IN LOS ANGELES
SLEEP ON HAY STACKS

Sunland, Calf, Sept. 2.-The queer
est people in the world gathered here
today to indulge in the first "Cranks

Delegates were called to order by

will be given chance to address the
assemblage of "queer' delegates on
that particular theory or subject that
has made crank of him.
Scores of automobile parties motored
out from Los Angeles and Pasadena
to sit back as spectators, and hear the
funny people talk.
The convention will last several
days. No limit has been set. Accom-
modations were furnished by good
people of Sunland and Little Landers,
two communities founded on idealistic
principles.
Beneath the deep blue heavens and
stars on a generous shock of yellow

The hay has been arranged in spaced
intervals. The delegates will furnish
their own fare and for those who fail.
ed to bring along provender, inhabi-
tants of this narrow mountain valley
will furnish nuts harvested from the
wild iron nut tree which abounds in
the valley. The floor of the valley is
studded with millions of round boulders
washed down from rocky ravines which
view from distance. gives the fantas-
tic impression of huge basket of nuts
having been spilled over the whole re-
gion.
Some of the more hlase of the spec
tators even went so far as to refer to
this place as "Sunny Nutland. -
One of the surprises of the gather

Legislation to Aid Distribution.
"I am hopeful that great benefit
will accrue to the nation from the
wise and efficient administration of
this act. 1t is one of a series of meas
ures recently conceived and enacted
for the development of rural life. We
began by formulating law on similar
lines, the cooperative agricultural ex
tension act. We then enacted the cot
ton futures law to give the cotton
| farmers and dealers standards to trade
on and to secure superv, ,ision of the
operations on futures exchanges, a
similar law to establish standards for
grains and to regulate interstate and
foreign commerce in them, and the
warehouse bill for the better storage
of staple crops and for the emission
of warehouse receipt which should be
good collateral for loans. We have
given an opportunity to the National
banks to lend funds on farm mortgages,
and have extended the period of ma.
turity for farm paper and adopted the
Federal farm loan act. All these lie
in the field of distribution as does
this road act. which lies at the founda-
tion of satisfactory and orderly
marketing
