All obstacles to union Of the
three church bodies were removed
late Friday by the three conventions.
A minority in the Hauge Synod has
raised objections against the union
on account Of paragraph in the Ar
ticles of Union which states that the
Norwegian Lutheran church does not
approve of conducting religious SER
vices together with clergymen OF
other faiths. Some raised the point
that this might prevent them from
taking part in meetings for civic well
fare or betterment such as temper
ance movements and it might also
prevent them taking part in patriotic
meetings where clergymen of other
faiths were present.
The Hauge convention, therefore
sent one of its representatives, Dr.
G. M. Bruce, to the convention OF
the ether two church bodies. eX

The other two church bodies adopted
resolutions, saying no one would be
considered disloyal to the church fol-

lucky, experimenting that his
views corresponds with those Of
this paper, along the line of food
economics, at our request, is sup
plying our readers in another
column of this issue, a most val
liable letter. Ii is matter of
supreme Importance at this i'm.
mediate junctnre. We do know
that the talk of government price
regulation is hindering an IN.
creased production with some
farmers. The law of supply and
demand is the only method that
can equitably regulate the price
Of farm production.
For instance. IN 1911 the writ.
er broke up some sod land and
planted il in corn. This land +,
though well cultivated, produced
only % bushels of corn per acre
1t was a very dry season. This
ground was very rough, so tn,
next year. IN 1912, the same
ground was laid off between rows
of corn.stalks, anj by an accu-
rate account, with only half the
labor, we used more Inan dou-
bic as much corn in 1912, on tn.
same land, as we did In 1911
Local drouth conditions alone
responsible for the difference
Price regulation would have han
the same price for both crops
In view of such risks MS this.
The farmer will be. very cautious
about increasing his production
Aud more especially will this
prove true when there is no prop
osition To regulate The products
of ma ,ufactured articles that he
must buy to cultivate his crop
with. and the various articles of
consumption he must have while
producing these crops.
II this big Democratic govern
ment of ours will start food price
regulation right NOW, and let the
regulatlon be based on the pric.
the farmer is paId for his prod
ucts. instead of the regulating
by prohlbitive prices which com.
pels the poor mans stomach t.
go slack, while the rich man can
pay the bill aud eat glutt0nously.
the price regulation will COM
mand a far greater respect at the
hands of The farmers.
