SAYSPRESIDENT' CHOSE
COURSE OF DISHONOR'

LOUISVILLE, KY Oct. 20.-Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt addressing Re-
publican meeting here, on Tuesday
night, made a violent attack upon
President Wilson.
Declaring, at the outset Of his
speech, that the Presidents promises
had been "well-nigh invariably bro
ken" and inferentially CHASING him
as a dishonorable man, the Colonel
as he warmed up in his denunciation
asserted that at the outset OF the
European war, Mr.. Wilson chose the
course Of dishOnor" which has
brought upon America the utter
contempt of the belligerents.' he
said that instead Of speaking softly
and carrying a big stick, President
Wilson spoke enthusiastically and car
red a dishrag." and asserted that our
offenses have been those of cold
short-sighted selfshness and of a
mean timidity which has invited, and
has therefore been partly responsible
for. the German and British offenses
against u.s."
Midway in the course of his denun-
citation. Colonel Colonel Roosevelt
paused to say of President Wilson
"There was probably no American
outside his own immediate following
more anxious to see him succeed, and
more disappointed when he failed
than I was. I criticized him only be
cause my duty as an American citi-
zen. proud Of his country and jealous
OF her honor, forces me to stand
against him."

$40 Acre Homestead
May Now Be Secured

Washington, d. C.-The $40 acre
passed both houses of congress ant
now awaits the approval of the presi
dent. Under the terms of the act any
person qualified to make entry under
the homestead laws may acquire 64(
acres of land of such character thaI
$40 acres are reasonably required fol
the support of a family. Such lands
will be chiefly valuable for grazing
and the raising of forage crops. The
would-be homesteader under this act
need not wait for the designation by
the secretary of the interior of the
lands coming within the meaning of
the act, but may make application at
the land office in the district in which
the land is situated and this will give
him a preferential right to enter the
land when the same has been desig-
mated by the secretary. No right to
occupy the land is given by filing the
application. The right to occupy &C
crues after the lands have been desig-
mated by the secretary Of the inter
ior. The act gives the right to a per
son who has already entered lands of
the character described in the act less
than $40 acres, TO make an additional
entry of lands situated within a radius
of twenty miles, provided that such
additional entry with the former en-
try, shall not exceed $40 acres. All
contiguous land of the character de-
scri6ed in the act must be entered
before an entryman can make addi-
uonal entry upon noncontiguous
land. improvements Of the value OF
not less than s1.25 per acre must be
made upon the land before proof, but
no cultivation is required. Additional
entry OF contiguous land may be made
either before or after final proof or
the original entry. The entryman

Henry's Sixty Million
Profit on Little Ford

That the public is interested to ar
intense degree in the Ford Motor
company is proven by the fact that
the newspapers accept almost any
thing about the Ford cars as "news'
while in the case of other cars il
would be classed as advertising
Among other things, public curiosity
has always been acute on the subject
of the manufacturing profit on Ford
for the fiscal year ended July 81 al
hand, showing net of $50, 994, Ills. ant
| assuming that the sales were sub
s%tantially equal to the production oil
533,921 cars, it is figured that Ford
last year made a per a profit OF
SIP. The gross sales of $206, S67 ,347
represented an average per car Of
1887, leaving $275 to represent the
average cost of producing and selling
a car, The exact division between
factory cost and selling expense is
not divulged, but it is a reasonable
conclusion that the manufacturing
cost did not run much above 5000 on
the average.
In the 1914 season the m%anufactur
ers of the entire country produced
$4,000 cars, or only $4,000 more than
Ford alone last year. And of that
$4,000 in 1914 Ford's share was 248,.
600. For the 1916 season the grand
total of American production was
about 100000 cars, which makes ii
roughly true that Ford built a car for
each a put out by all other manu-.
%facturers combined.
Paying the highest price for labor.
and despite a cut in selling price OF
$50 q car. the Ford Motor company
nevertheless produced net earnings
equal to % per cent of gross in the
