We have heard number of local
motorists, as well as those from out Of
town, who both cussed and discussed
the method Of piling earth upon the
newly built concrete crossings in the
city. We understand this earth is
placed on the crossings, so as to put
It in proper condition to stand the
heavy traffic, while the concrete is
settling. The idea is a good one; but
the council should see, that the con-
tractors make more Of slope to such
covering. H stranger comes to the
city IL an automobile and does not see
the crossing In time to almost stop he
will undoubtedly suffer a severe Jolt.
Little things Of this nature serve to
make visitor form q poor opinion Of
our city.

The numerous automobile accidents.
that have occurred in this neighbor-
hood during the past week, should
serve as a warning to car drivers that
there is a need of more carefulness in
driving. There are. accidents that are
almost unav oidable but as a rule they
are the result Of carefulness on the
part of someone. The best plan for the
automobiles is. to always bear in mind
that Safety First will lessen the
number of accidents.

s just what is On the mind Of our
friend Herb Hoover, food dictator at
Washington, is a difficult matter to
solve. But if he believes the farmer of
the northwest is going to sell wheat at
81. 90, when it costs that sum to pro-
dlce and market it, he surely has an
other guess coming. The large steel
interests in the east are receiving their
share Of the war profits and there
should be1no reason why the farmer
can notgbe given a legitimate profit on
his wheat. II Hoover pushes thru his
plan he will learn that when the 1913
crop is threshed that there will be a
big shortage in the total number Of
bushels Of wheat raised in the United
States. AS

In this weeks issue of the Sheaf, one
of Warren's business men is running
an advertisement, in which he COM
pares the prices of his goods with that
of mail order house. This. is the
kind of advertising that should bring
results and it would, be aswise plan for
other business men in the city to try
it out. The buyer is given the oppor-
tunity to learn the prices and then can
go directly to the store and see the
the goods That are being sold.

Out near Neodesha, Kan, Mrs. Dora
Long has a crop of 1000 bushels of
June wheat worth $4,000 She was
not expecting 50 large yield, because
the season had been backward at the
start, and her problem is now one Of
storage. For the present, in addition
to- her barns, she is using her bed
roonlsSas we'll as other apartments of
her l1one, as wheat bins. This, how
eyer,Will amount only to temporary
inconv enience. Anyone with SIT 900
worth Of wheat on hand can afford to
