SAY FARM IMPLEMENTS
WILL DROP IN PRICE

A drop in the prices of farm imple-
ments was the forecast Thursday in
the convention of the Midwest inn
plement dealers by +. X. Sebeuthall
of Eau Claire, Wis, principal speak
er of the day at Omaha. The sub
ject of Mr.. Sebenthall's talk was
THE Outlook for the Next Twelve
Months
THE outlook for the next twelve
months is just conjecture and guess
and your guess is about as good as
mine. The chief governing point is
that you should transact your bust
ness in such way as to remain loyal
to yourself and to the farmers" said
Mr.. Sebenthall.
Peace terms will undoubtedly be
such that prices are going down. The
government has already announced
that the reduced program of output
is declared off to certain extent
and there will be more farm machin-
cry manufactured next year than
there was reason to expect. Com
petition will be keen among the
manufacturers and the retailers.
I'm the past the implement dealers
have been considered simply as
agents for the manufacturers, but in
the future that will be different. You
are now real merchants and very i'm
portant factors i'm the producing of
the food supply of the world.
During the coming year my adj
vice to dealers is TO keep close to
the shore, buying goods only for
your immediate needs and do not
permit anyone to persuade you TO
overstock.
And you must forget to make a
dollar here and there when the boys
come home. You will be called upon
to assist in many ways and you must
do it. Forget to make money on
such. occasions.

ONE MONTH ABROAD Is
PRESIDENTS PROGRAM

About one month is the time Presi-
dent Wilson expects to be in Europe
for the opening of the peace confer
ence and preliminary discussions.
No definite limit has been fixed,
but it was said authoritatively that
the president plans to be back on
American soil within six weeks after
his ship sails for the other side.
1t became known also that the
Italian ambassador, Count Di Gel
lere. as well as Ambassador Pusser-
and of France. and the American
peace delegation, will cross on the
ship with the president.
1t was said that there was no
foundation whatever for talk of a
censorship over news of the peace
conference and that American news
paper correspondents would be given
all facilities possible for transmitting
their dispatches.
Preparations for the president s
trip still are surrounded with secrecy
and no one processes to know either
when the start will be made or just
who will make up the party. An
announcement by the president him
self of the personnel of the peace
delegation is expected in day or
two.
Among many messages received
from England, France and Italy urg-
ing Mr. Wilson not to let unfavorable
criticisms interfere with his plans is
understood to be one from Lord
Northcliffe. earnestly suggesting that
all objections should be disregarded
because the presidents presence is
essential.

AUDUBON TO HAVE FREE
MAIL DELIVERY SOON

The postal department sent two
inspectors to Audubon last week to
make the final inspection and report
on the advisibility of inaugurating
free mail delivery in the city. Early
in the summer a representative from
the department made the initial in
spection and recommended that the
business of the office here justified
city delivery and that the service
should be extended. provided the
patrons met with the requirements
of the department.
The patrons of the office were
asked il they would put up a re-
ceptical at each of the residences in
the town and the city was asked to
have all houses and streets num-
bered and named. A blue print of
of the city plat was also asked for.
These demands were met at once.
More room was also required and
the matter OF fixing up the basement
or the upstairs at the present loca-
ton was Investigated. We under
stand that basement can be ar
ranged to take care of the additional
carriers that will be required. II
the present building is not suita Bile.
we understand that another location
will be recommended if the service
is to be established.
We believe Audubon is entitled to
this service. Other towns with less
population have free delivery and it
is working satisfactorily. OF course
in order to make all necessary ar
engagements it is going to take some
time and We understand that it will
be at least two months before the
service can be put into operation if
the final recommendations are for
warded and accepted by the depart
ment. That we will have the service
is a foregone conclusion. The only
question now is how soon it can be
put into operation. Were it not for
present conditions Audubon might
be in line for splendid new gov
eminent building. and in this we GER
tally would have the hearty sup
port of Congressman Green But
the department is not spending any
more money at this time than is
absolutely necessary, and so We will
have to wait until conditions have
settled and matters again become
normal.

Mr. Green is a member of the ways

TO do with the matter of the financ-
ing of the period during the war.
He was especially pleased with
the manner in which Iowa, the dis
trict and the county responded to
the needs of the government. lie
said he could see his way clearly
through all of the difficulties during
The war, for the people were back of
the war program. But the future
is not bright. He fears that many
difficulties are ahead and what the
result will be no man can forsee.
Mr.. Green for many years lived
in this city and the large audience
that greeted him was sufficient evil
dence that everyone was still inter-
ested in him and his work at the
national capitol. They were pleased
with his action in supporting the
president in all of the great war
measures. They have confidence in
his judgment to do the very best in
all matters that are to come before
congress in the future. He made a
splendid address and II was a de-
tightful privilege to hear him on this
occasion.
