interference with republican nomina-
tions by members of other parties. The
Harding democratic vote in republican
primaries shows where the fence should
be, fixed hog tight and mule high. Part
of that fixing consists of making cleo
ton boards though tful of responsibility
to degree that they shall not hand out
tickets on demand without proper check
on the party affiliations of the voter
who demands it. But the fact that dem
ocrats were permitted to vote in re-
publican primaries is not new nor does
it affect the primary principle. That
the vote included little more than half
the republican vote of the state is not
an argument for return to the ancient
boss system: for caucuses wherein one
twentieth of the voters of a state were
represented never were held in Iowa
or any other state. The vote was as
representative as the voters themselves
made it. The machinery was there for
their use. 1t is good machinery. Per-
haps it needs some slight adjustments.
We shall not junk the machine The
we shall lnot junk the machine. The
primary will stay.

convention and we are not afraid Of
the result.
IOWA IN THE LEAD.

Iowa's supremacy over all compete
tors as an agricultural and stock grow
ing state never fails OF demonstration
when the statisticians turn in the result
Of their computations. The year 1915
was not considered favorable one by
any means for crop growing In Iowa,
especially for corn, and that crop fell
somewhat below the average of previ-
ous years. But in spite of the abnor-
NAL season recent crop reports show
Iowa In the lead in the total value OF
farm crops for the year.
The 1916 corn crop was not UP to the
established Iowa standard, altho rank
ing second in the list of the corn grow
ing states. The fact Is that in Iowa we
have grown so accustomed to enormous
yields that we forget that half or two,
thirds crop in Iowa would be regarded
as bumper crop in any other state.
The total value of the farm crops in
Iowa last year was given out as $525.--
6669G3 which amount not a few we'll
informed persons maintain is very
conservative estimate. To this should
be added the value of live stock on the
farms Jan. /, amounting to $451.59s..
900, giving grand total Of 1911. 1885,
9O3 which represents the summary Of
Iowa achievement for 1915. Not such a
bad wear after all.

MODERN HOMES, GRANDPARENTS roADs

The Ames College experiment sta
ton needed a good Iowa farmhouse.
The department of agricultural engin-
eering inaugurated statewide contest
with prizes for the best plans for d
farmhouse to cost $500 Contestants
entered from fifty nine Iowa counties
and seven states First prize was won
by a woman, one of those residents Of
the state of Iowa considered unfit for
citizenship, a Mrs Hitler of Cedar
Rapids. III
One thing sticks out of the contest
that should not be overlooked-not one
Of the winning plans came within the
cost limit. But they fitted the needs
and demands OF the Iowa farmer They
were the kind Of homes the Iowa farmer
builds for himself nowadays. They
were supplied with lighting plants, a
farm office, laundry with a clothes
chute leading TO it. bath, running water
and a modern and efficient kitchen.
The judges were right That is the
kind Of home the modern Iowa farmer
builds for himself and his family. The
farm homes being built in this section
Of Iowa will run above the $500 limit.
The men who build them can afford
them. They insist on having for
themselves and their families as good
homes as other people have for their
families.
Isn't it strange that the men who
insist on modern houses and up to- date
who know they can afford
them and who propose to have modern
conveniences and necessities and who
have moved fathers old house back OF
the barn for a calf shelter should be
satisfied and con.ent with their grand

THE PRIMARY WILL STAY.

One of the Cedar Rapids newspa pers
states that two bills to repeal or amend
the primary law will be introduced
from Linn county in the next legisla-
tive session.
Just at present there is complaint
over the workings Of the statewide
primary law and Of course bills will
multiply before the coming assembly,
some to repeal. others to amend. The
average legislator dearly loves to in
troduce a bill and the criticism Of the
primary offers wide opportunity to in
PRODUCERS.
But outside a little tinkering with
the carburetter there's nothing doing
or to be done with the state wide pri-
mary law. Those who yearn for re-
turn to the old caucus or desire sys-
tenn approximating it are due TO be Bit
terly disappointed. Voters incline to
complain and find fault with systems
but 1t is not of record that the peo-
pie have ever willingly rendered back
to political bosses any just powers be-
longing to the people after such pow
ers had been recalled by statutory
Seizure. So the statewide primary will
endure. The principle of popular gov
eminent is in it. Whatever we may
do in the line of repairs and improve
ments we shall count every individual
vote in the state capital as in the pre-
cinct. So long as that is done the
manner of counting doesn't much mat

Of New York, was sent west to make a
counter demonstration. It is not put
ting it too strongly to say that Mr..
Hughes stirred up more enthusiasm
than any other republican speaker in
that campaign. He had no reputation
as camraigner when he started out.
When he returned to New York he had
national reputation as one of the
most effective stump speakers In the
country. While not a spellbinder, Mr..
Hughes had prepared a series of strong
set speeches which he delivered with
telling effect. He also spoke extempo-
raneously from the rear platform, as
was then the custom. The west was
agreeably surprised over the virility
and geniality of Charles Hughes, and it
marked his name down in its good
books" for future reference. 1t is not
at all unlikely that the pleasant inn
preston made in 1908 served to a con-
siderable extent to encourage the strong
Hughes sentiment that manifested it,
self in Iowa and other western states
early in the present campaign.

rRyNe TO DO SOMETHING


The duty Of the drys in the coming
republican state convention ought to
be plain in two respects: First. as to
platform. and second. as to the at
torney general nomination.
The most that can be done to save
the party from the stigma which
candidate with a whisky odor brings,
IS to set forth a ringing declaration
pledging that candidate to dry pro-
gram.
In the contest for the nomination for
attorney general. there can be no
doubt that the liquor forces Will array
themselves so far as possible behind
Wilson Wilson. who made promises

elected, ran a close race in the .pri-
maries with Havner for the lead OF the
field. The primaries emphasized the
fact that had been widely conceded
previously, that Havner was the
strongest of the dry candidates, and is
the man for the drys to unite upon. II
the drys divide between the various
candidates they are merely inviting
repetition Of the Cosson-Allen lesson.
