THE FARMER AND HIS INCOME.

In the same tone Of voice that a great author once
said. 10 the poor indian" people we're years ago nc
customed TO say, 10 the poor farmer" but no longer is
it proper to qualify the noun farmer with any such ad.
jective as poor.
One wen-known Reno county. Kansas. farmer had
finished his income tax return and decided to consult
with the income tax expert at the post office before he
made out his final statement After a long conference
he was seen to leave the building, chucking to himself.
He had figured his tax TO be about $1,000. but Uncle sam
decided 1t was only s6,555.30. The farmers income is
about $50, 900 yearly.
1t is not probable that there are many Lake county
farmers who are banking $50, 900 incomes. but in view
of the value of wheat and hogs. the farmers life is not
nearly so unhappy as il used to be.

'PIT1LEss PUBLICITY

A cablegram from London detailing a serious situa
ton dut to an advance OF the forces or the B%olsheviki
says British forces will follow Immediately the Ameri-
can troops now on their way to north Russia" What
American troops are now on their way TO north Russia
Why are they on they way? And just what is our gov
eminent proposing to do in the matter of carrying on
war in that God forsaken land? Perhaps it is all right
to conduct in this manner a war which congress never
authorized and concerning the merits Of which our people
are kept absolutely in the dark. but it might be well to
give them the information they desire and are entitled to.
When it is recalled that the present heads Of this gov
eminent were the original advocates Of 'pitiless pub
licity" their present secretiveness becomes a screaming
farce=Fort Wayne News.

WHY DO THEY DO IT?

The cartoonists seem to enjoy drawing pictures Of re-
turned soldiers with a leg or an arm off being kicked out
by some employer to whom the manned veteran has APP
piled for a job. These things do not happen. Of course;
in ss9 cases out of a thousand soldiers get their jobs back
If they want them. or better Jobs. Yet 1t is supposed 70
indicate genius for a cartoonist to picture the returning
soldier as an unfortunate mendicant for whom nobody
has any respect or consideration.

Leo Stuhr Says Foot
Race at State House
Picnic Was ''Rotten'

Lincoln, July l9.-State house en-
ployes held their annual picnic at
Capital beach Friday and it was one
of the most successful ever held by
the political crowd.
After a very "scrumptious" repast
the denizens of the old ruins pro-
ceeded to have good time pulling
off sports. Having shown himself
to be good runner in the elections,
Railway Commissioner Thomas Hall
pulled off his shoes and entered the
free-for-all race for state officers
and heads of departments. He was
pitted against such sprinters as
Deputy Secretary of State CASTOR,
Judge Parriott of the supreme court
commission and a few other runners
of more or less reputation. Food
Commissioner Leo Stuhr looked a
little worried when he saw Hall
pull off his shoes and the other con-
testants do likewise, but looking
back over the last 40 years and re-
membering the record he made in
school when a kid, he said, "Thun-
der! can beat 'em all with my
shoes on" He probably would if he
hadn't got behind and fallen down.
Saturday morning he said that the
race was "rotten," and was ""mis-
branded" and will have to be tested
by the chemical department of the
pure food dynasty. The race was
easily won by State Veterinarian w.
T. Spencer. Railway Commissioner
Thomas Hall has not crossed the
line yet. He is said to be investi-
eating the roadbed and transporta-
ton privileges.
Another race of rotten" proper
tions was the mems skeleton race
There were three contestants: Fire
Commissioner Ed Beach, weight
261; Chief Clerk Mayer of the food
department, weight 247, and King
Cole, chief clerk in the governors
office, weight 2971z. The race
proved to have been faxed and all
three contestants were suspended
from the American Racing associa-
ton for 20 years for pulling"
There were many other interest
ing sports.
