BIG PRICE FOR CORN.
Farmer Given 81 Bushel for His
1916 Crop.

Pacific Junction, Ia, Dec. IT,
Frank Wright, farmer living near
here, has just sold 5000 bushels of
corn, 1916 crop, for four dollars a
bushel. Mr.. Wright had been offered
various prices for the corn and would
have sold at one time for 1925 a
bushel, but the offer came at a time
when he could not make delivery and
his friends believed that he had mis-
sed a fine chance to realize on the
corn.
Early this fall, when it became ap-
parent that the seed corn situation
was serious this 5000 bushels of
corn took on a new value and numer-
GUS would-be buyers came around
and the final sale was completed at
ter two seed corn men had looked
the corn over, made an offer and had
received counter offer, comprom-
Use being reached at four dollars a
bushel for the 5000 bushels just as
1t comes from the crib.

THE INCOME TAX PAYERS.
Every County Will be Visited by an
Official to Aid Taxpayers.
in Making Returns.

Uncle Sam is going to go out of
his way to aid taxpayers who come
under the provisions of the income
tax law. Louis Murphy, Dubuque, in
terlal revenue collector for this dis
trict, announces that officials will Wis
it every county in the district, to aid
taxpayers, shortly after the new
year opens. He says:
Every collection district will be
cut up into districts Of one, two, or
more counties, depending upon the
indicated number of taxpayers, and
one officer assigned to each district.
1t will thus be possible to determine
far in advance the exact dates when
an officer will be in given county
at the court house in the county seat
and possibly in a second town in the
county. His coming will be announc-
ed IL news articles sent out to news
papers and advices to bankers and
postmasters.
"All person subject to the tax, or
in doubt about it or any phase of
the law, need do, is inform himself
when the income tax man will be il
his town or vicinity, and call on him
when he arrives. He will make out
the taxpayers return, answer the
taxpayers questions, clear up his
doubts, swear him to the return, take
his money, and remove the wrinkles
from his brow.
This is the next thing to rapping
on mans door, telling him you've
come to help him make out his re-
turn.
This plan removes the last ex-
cuse of the taxpayer whose defense
for failure to make return is that
he did not receive form, or that he
didn't know how to fill out the form
excuses truthfully made a general
rule. The government officers will
have forms enough and he will him
self fill out the form.
Every married man whose in
come from wages, profession, bust
ness, farming, interest or otherwise
is over $4,000 for 1917 would do we'll
to see the income tax man. This ap-
plies with equal force to the uImar-
ried person with an income over
$1,000"
There is exemption of $500 for
each dependent child under Is years
Of age.

WHO "RUNS THINGS"

In every town, just as in every
lodge or church or club there are
few people who, the backbiter or
Stacker always says, "think they run
things" or want to run things"
Consider these men or women who
want to run things" Is it not fact
that they are the people who, when
there is lot of committee or detail
work to do, are the only ones who
will see that it is done? Are they not
the only ones who are willing to give
public movement for the good of all?
When you a1alyze the whole thing
are not these people who think they
run things" about the only people
who have enough interest in their
town or their lodge or their church
to spend their time and money for
the good of others?
If you are honest with yourself you
will admit they are. The next time
you hOoA any ohO tain "DOo' IAS oIAA
er fellow running" the lodge, or the
town, or the church, or the club, or
the fire company, ask him to attend
the next meeting of one of these or
CARNATIONS. See that he is appointed
on one of the cmmittees which have
a lot of work to do and watch him
try to sneak out of the job of work
ing for nothing for the good of 9TH
is very likely you will find that he is
perfectly willing to let others "run
things" as usual.

IOWA SOLDIERS TO COAST.
900 Iowa Drafted Men to be Sent to
the Coast Artillery.

Des Moines, Iowa, Dec. 17.-Five
hundred Iowans certified for service
in the National army, but who have
not yet left their home stations, will
be sent Immediately to Fort Worden,
Washington, where they will enter
the cost artillery service.
Telegraphic instructions to this eff
feet were received by Gov. w. L.
Harding from Provost Marshal Gen
eral Crowder at. Washington.
Governor Harding AID Adjutant
General Logan returned Wednesday
from Camp Cody, near Deming, N.
NJ, where they inspected the former
Iowa National guardsmen there, and
had not had time to formulate plans
for the selection of the men for the
Fort Worden assignment.
1t is probable that the 800 men
will be chosen from all parts of the
state, and it is expected that instruc-
tons will go out Immediately to local
draft boards, ordering a certain num-
Der OF men in each district to assem-
bic at some concentration point for
entertainment for Fort Worden.

I stopped to put on my shoes could
hardly straighten up because sharp
pain caught me in the small or my
