Should Bring Good Results.

County Agriculturist E. D. Smith,
has had printed an exchange list
which he is sending to farmers of La
Plata and Montezuma counties. Every
farmer III the two counties will re-
ceive copy of the circular in which
are enumerated number of people
who have ranch things to sell as
well as those who want to buy. This
exchange system has worked well in
other sections of the state and puts
the farmers in close touch with each
other and should prove advantageous
in disposing of surplus stock and
grain and be of much benefit to the
person seeking information, especially
relative to seed. If you have special
seed potatoes, wheat and oats. you
should communicate with Mr.. Smith
SO it can be enumerated in the next
monthly circular.

Congressman Park. Democratic, OF
Georgia, recently addressed the house
of, representatives in condemnation
of the changes the Democratic ad-
ministration has made in the rural
service. He said: There is great dis
satisfaction because OF this delayed
delivery of the mails and again: "Of
all the changes made under any ad-
ministration in any department OF
the government, this change in the
rural route service has created more
discontentmenI dissatisfaction and
antagonism.' When criticisms such
as this We're voiced by Republicans
from Northern states, the answer Of
the Demo crats was that it was mere
partisan carping. This expression
from part OF the country that has
been especially favored by the postof-
flee department, and by a member
of the party in power, ought TO be ac'
cepted as conclusive evidence of th'
bad management under which our pos
tai service has fallen.

For the fiscal year 1915 there was
total of 259,72S personal and cor
poration income tax returns to be ex-
amined and with the present force of
274 field officers, making examina-
tions at the same average rate as
experience has shown they are able
to go, it will require three and a
half years for this force TO complete
the examination of the transcripts
that will be sent to the agents for
the present fiscal year. That IS
quoted from Secretary McAdoo's an
nual report. and is one Of his argu-
ments for an increase in his force
Of income tax employes-additional
provisions for feeding more "deserv-
ing Democrats at the public crib.
According to that statement each field
officer has 1880 income tax returns
to examine. which, at his present
rate of examination will require-al-
lowing 300 working days to a year
1860 days to complete. In other
words the force is examining returns
at the rate of one return per man
per day, which is u fair sample of
Democratic efficiency. And of this
type of employees, hundreds are ap-
pointed temporarily by the treasury
department, and then hlanketed into
