H. C. of |. Solved AT Last

Washington, June l5-The high
cost Of living, which has baffled
poet, prophet and seer, has been
finally solved by United States Sen
ator Sherman, who rejects such
theories as the war, trusts, middle
men, the gold supply, poor distri-
button, faulty transportation, ETC.,
High living costs can be traced to
fine factory conditions, union
hours, and city life, says this
philosopher, whe talks of under
lying causes,
1T is because the help has gone
from the farm" he AYERS. 1t
has gone to the factory, to the
counting house, to the store, to the
great manufacturing, jobbing and
retail centers of the country. These
men have gone because they like
the work and get higher wages
and shorter hours. They have
more amusement. City life is more
attractive to the average young
person. The result Is that the farm
Is drained. =

Maintenance costs will be the big
