FARMERS DISAGREE
AS 70 ECONOMICAL
VALUE OF TRACTORS

Special to Times Republican.
Steamboat Rock, April 1O.-The far
ner started home with the new trac-
tor he had bought to do his blowing
WITH and in the darkness of night or
a muddy grade landed in low plac.
near the fence, left the machine there
and went home. 1t was pulled out a
day or Two afterward at some ex-
pense of time and labor. A man talk
ing about it remarked that while trac-
tor farming is success especially on
level fields and large farms If all the
time consumed In preparations and
delays that seldom or never occur In
horsepower farming but that are taken
as a matter of course in tractor farm
ing the latter method is rarely econ
omical on the ordinary Iowa farm
when compared with the old fashioned
method. Another listener told how
somebody in his neighborhood had
plowed up field of thirty acres in
two or three days and then when the
question was asked him, How long
did it take 10 get the outfit ready to
begin work?' he answered about a
week. There's always somebody
claiming superiority for old established
ways Of doing things. husking corn
for instance where the old fashion a,s
man seems to have the best of thu
argument to date.
One Iowa farmer has felt the direct
effect Of threatened war already H. L.
Moore arranged for the services this
year of a husky young fellow living in
Illinois. The other day he received a
letter informing him that his hired
man had decided to enlist and would
not be on hand to help put in tho
spring crops
There is a wireless telegraph plant
in process of installation on a farm
near town. Young Gerald Williamson.
a l6-year-old farmer boy, has been
giving considerable study to this
method of communication for some
time and has much of his apparatus in
working order with every prospect Of
catching weather and market reports.
war news or any other kind Of news
that may be coming his way thru the
aerial regions. .
This is a very unusual as well as
time for swine plague out
breaks but several farmers in a neigh
borhood east of here are suffering
losses of this kind at the present time.
J j. Mennenga is one of the heaviest
losers. OF herd of twenty brood
sows he had only four left one day
last week. Losing pigs in the fall Of
the year is misfortune enough to the
pork producing business and to the
man who sustains the direct loss;
worse yet is the loss on matured ami
mails v.ntered on expensive feed and
depended upon to furnish the meat
supply for another year. Another ag-
feature is the danger Of con-
tinued trouble Of this kind to the far
mer who would like to get out and buy
breeders to take the place Of those he
lost but who fears to take the risk Of
doing so and losing them also.

viii Not Give Up FTuitsOf Victories Won IN Past
Battle is Not Decisive. People Regard
7eutORAdvars Temporary Success.

Rome, Oct. 3O.-Gen. Cordorna's
bulletins are causing the nation to
realize that it is facing a severe
trial, but the press reflects a spirit
of determination on the part of the
people that the loss Of the fruits of
victory won in the past shall be but
temporary.
The enemy's rapid gains of the
past six days are regarded as hav-
ing been due not so much to superior
force as to the element Of surprise.
According to the Journale de Italia
no decisive battle has yet been
fought, although one is expected to
develop. Such a battle, it is pre-
dicted,will be on large scale and
involve the movements in the open
field, in the old-fashioned style.
The Messaggero also declares the
Germans are making a mistake if
they think to terrorize the Italians
politically by this. effort and econ
vert the country into another Rus
sia." 1t asserts that every revolu-
tionary idea to make a lame peace
has disappeared and that the whole
nation will fight until just and
lasting peace has been won.
The Italian retreat continued yes,
terday, the war office announces
The Italian cavalry is in contact witt
the vanguards of the advancing en-
envy.
The Italians destroyed the bridges
over the Isonzo and fought rear
guard actions, by which means the!
checked the Austro- German ad
vance.
The announcement follows:
During yesterday the Withdrawal
of our troops on their new position
was continued. Destruction of tn
bridges over the Isonzo effected b!
cur troops, and the successful &C
ton of our covering units have de
tanned the advance Of the enemy.

Anyone may refuse to sign a

one protesting allegiance to the stars

is as much part of the war machin-

and the governor.
