There is a controversy going on
between the two schools of journal
ism-or between the two masters OF
these schools-Professor Alex Mil
Ter, Of the Washington Democrat,
and Professor o. E.. Hull, of the
Leon Reporter. The former con-
tends that page write-up of an
item is necessary where the latter
dismisses it with merely a two line
mention. They merely represent
the extreme elements of expansion
and contraction and both are right
in their respective spheres of thought
and community. This applies to
every department of life and is the
difference between maximum and the
minimum-wholesa and retail.
When man has hectic flush over
in Decatur county the doctor merely
conceals a homeopathic pellet in his
Uneeda BISCUIT and he gets along,
but over in Washington county when
man has a hectic flush they pIy

shovel anti-toxiQe into his system by

A farmer living at South English.
Iowa. who was preparing to hold a
public auction of seed corn and
other articles, was notified by the
Secretary of the State Council OF
National Defense and the selling of
seed corn at auction is contrary to
the policy of the council. In other
words the council of national defense
has no powers with which to enforce
ic action it proposed that certain
things be done and certain other
things not be done. 1t is viewed as
wrong to sell seed corn at public
auction and it is even limited that a
price OF 81 and S. per bushel may
be pllced on seed corn before very
long.

The country has done much for
the American farmer. 1t has given
him the parcels post, which enables
him to ship farm produce quickly
and cheaply; the free mail delivery,
which enables him TO keep in con-
slant touch with the happenings in
TEN, which provides him with cheap
money, and it has seen to it that he
gets a square deal from the rail-
roads in getting his produce to the
market. And now it expects the
American farmer to help it to win
the war for world freedom.
