TENANT SYSTEM WRONG.
One Year Leases Ultimately 4os Result
In Dead Rural Civilization, Declares
Henry Wallace IN Address Before
Amos Students.

Special to Times Republican.
Ames. Nov. 4.-"Our present system
Of one year leases can not help but I'LL
timately produce dead rural civiliza-
ton, spiritless communities. poor
schools and bad churches" said Henry
Wallace, editor Of Wallaces' Farmer, in
an address before the Agricultural
Club Of Iowa State College. Mr.. Wall
lace discussed tenantry. organization
and soil fertility as the three. great
problems of Iowa agriculture as he saw
them.
Our present one-year lease, system
works, In a vicious circle" said Mr..
Wallace. mot knowing when, he will
be showed from his land, a tenant does
nothing but skin It. Often the land
lord, believing 1t is time for, him to
retire, moves to the city, discovers the
cost of living is more than he expected
and proceeds to squeeze up the rent OF
the land. The tenant pays more rather
than move. he tries to get more out Of
the land, and thus the process goes
on. What the remedy will be is hard
tc say 1t may mean the adoption or
the English system whereby the land
is made third party to any lease. Any
fertility removed by the tenant he
must pay for and any that he adds the
landlord must pay for when the tenant
leaves.
THE time is coming when the far
mers will be as compactly organized
as any working class predicts Mr..
Wallace. 1T must be so or farming
will fail. Farmers must develop class
consciousness.
For the past fifteen years we have
been whooping it up for larger crops,
larger crops. These crops sell for just
what the buyer wants to pay, regard

CROWDS ON HAND EACH DAY

Training activities at the two local
tracks rambled along IN a snappy and
consistent manner during the last
seven days, the boarders at both
plants in most cases advancing sew
cral more notches in their condition
ing for the seasons meetings.
The classy harness racers quartered
at the East Omaha track Of the
Omaha Driving club had excellent OPP
portunity 10 show their worth, as the
half-mile course is in unusually fine
condition, in fact, nearly as good as
il could possibly be at this time Of
the year. Several OF the leading turf
men Of the country have visited the
local driving club track this spring,
and 1t is their unanimous opinion that
il ranks paramount among the half
mile oyals Of the United States.
Horsemen hereabouts are awaiting
with the keenest OF interest the mat
inee al the East Omoha track SEIZED
uled for Decoration day. With the
drivers at the workouts dropping EN-
down" a little lower each day, there
Is strong probability that attendants
at the matinee will see some Of the
elassiest harness racing staged in this
vicinity for many moons since.
The afternoons sport will be free
to the public, which is in line with
the custom now in vogue in Milwau-
kee and Denver at weekly matinees.
Driving club officials are hoping that
the Locust street yiaduet will have
been entirely completed by that time,
thereby making for the excellent
handling Of the crowds Otis M.
Smith, secretary-treasurer OF the Driy-
ing club, announced yesterday that he
will try and get the city TO furnish a
band for the occasion, a municipal
courtesy said TO be provided at the
Milwaukee and Denver free matinees.
Trainers eentcring their energies at
the Benson plant put in a good week
with their charges, the workouts
showing both the track and horses 10
be in highly satisfactory condition.
Less than month away is the three
days Nebraska Midway Racing cir
cult meeting on June 3, Q and 10, and
the aspiraDts for honors in training
at Benson are being put through their
PAGES with an eye 10 coping off some
Of the choice ends OF the purses.
Al Thomas, known by real horse
men Al every camping ground OF con
sequence in the country, who has the
largest string Al the Benson stables,
has put his shoulder to the wheel and
whipped the track into fine shape. a
number Of the annoying waves in the
oval were removed the last week.
