Information About Homer Parkinson.

The following information concerning
our young friend and hero. Homer
Parkinson, is gathered from letter
written by Captain A. f. LaRouche to
a friend of the deceased
You ask some questions which | am

called him that, even the otficers) is
buried. He lies in the southern part of
the Bots de Bantheville (Banthevile

where we buried him. You must have

We loved him just the same as you did.
Always there is someone bringing up
his name and talking about him.

made a very hard advance and reached
our objective all in " Hardly anyone
had food, and those that did have i'm
mediately ate it. Homer had some hard
bread and he was frying it in bac-
on grease over one of those canned heat

extract more work. In reply you admit
that you have received moneys in con
nection with that convict-labor system,
and in your own defense you merely
plead that you personally were not
directly in contact with the operation
yourself, but your plantation was leased
and cultivated by the State of Texas.
The public will thoroughly appreciate
the unique qualities Of such defense. 1t
is as though a landlord were caught
owning house used for immoral pur-
poses and Immediately pleaded his own
probity on the ground that he merely
leased the premises, receiving the prof

orgies. Your defense which is, be-
lieve, what lawyers call plea Of con-
fession and avoidance may well be
left to the scrutiny of the American

DAVIES GIVES UP THE DOODLE.

All citizens of Wisconsin have heard
of Joseph E. Davies. He was Presi-
dent Wilson'S pet candidate for u. S.
Senator from this state, as against the
tried and true American, Lenroot, while
others who worshiped at the Wilson
Davies shrine, were likewise active in
efforts to defeat Lenroot As all do
know, it wasn't patriotism. but self
ishness, back of this unsuccessful drive
Unsuccessful thanks be, we may well
say now. On Tuesday Of this week
Davies gave up, and without a string
attachment, the 81, 500 fee he exacted,
for a days work, It's said, from the
bogus and now defuct Consumers Pack
ing company. The 50. 500 fee was for
legal services in seeking to obtain a
capital permit for said company to go
on with its fraudulent proceedings.
That great and reliable American,
Judge Lands, turned the ace card. 1t
was he who forced the return of the
money.

INCOME TAXES.

All income tax reports from Iowa
County have now been examined
Farm incomes in particular show in
creases over last year. but in this coun-
~, the increase in tax made by these
larger incomes will be somewhat offset
by the decrease in the mining incomes
One of the largest partnerships shows
less than one-tenth as much as the year
before, and a number which have paid
rather large taxes in previous years
seem to have run at loss last year, In
spite of this, the individual income tax
assessed in Iowa County will exceed
last years tax by at least 502o So re-
ports the assessor of incomes.

OLD RULE IN GERMANY
Country Still in the Clutches of
BureaucratS.
DR. Alonzo (. Taylor Finds looting
Common and Immoral Plays
Thriving.

paris.-"The German government is
tbe same bur. ucratic regime OF the
koiser's day. with the same attitude
toward labor and capital, and does not
represent the forces which caused the
revolution" says DR.. Alonzo Il. Tay-
Tor. food specialist, who has just re-
turned from Germany He made ex-
tensiye investigations in behalf of the
supreme food relief council.
Count Won Bernstorff is in charge
of American affairs and the foreign
office and the bureaucrats of the old
school are in evidence everywhere"
he added. "The Germans are becom-
ing Russianized, They are afraid to
nut untried men into the service, and
consequently they tolerate the old or
der of filings"
The German army has apparently
been disorganized and demobilized for
the most part, Doctor Taylor says, but
he believes it will be possible for
wel-organiZed bureaucracy to restore
militarism if it is deemed desirable.
Many Germans believe they will re-
cover their battleships, and do not
EXPECT to give up any territory, and in
Doctor TaylOr's opinion a grave, po-
litical upheaval is probable with the
signing of the treaty of peace.
The present Iull is regarded as UNI
natural by Doctor Taylor, who says it
was possibly created by the payment
of large indemnities to unemployed
persons and by suspending action on
all questions vital TO the future of the
nation. Unemployed men in Berlin are
paid eight marks day, while railway
workers and street cleaners get six
marks daily Consequently, the men
prefer to remain idle.
Plays so immoral that they would
have been prohibited under the impe-
rial regime are now tolerated; thlev-
ing is prevalent; ooting is common
and the general public morale is very
low, Doctor TAYLOR remarks. He says
the food situation is critical and in
spite of the great reduction made in
rations, the nation cannot live until
next harvest unless supplied by out
side powers.

When the European war broke out

until they distinguished themselves ON
the battlefields. Later a unit of the
"monnties' was accepted for service.

the average farm. The floor plan shown Is designed to accommodate ten milch cows and twelve horses, besides considerable loose stock. This can be changed. however. to suit the needs of the owner. For instance, one end of the barn can be partitioned off so as to have the horses separate from the cows. which Is required by the pure food laws of some states. When this is done. as much or as little space can be set aside for the horses as Is want ed. and the balance devoted to the COW stahle.
 This barn has an exceptionally at tractive exterior appearance and will make a fine addition to any farm build- ing group. It Is of the gambrel-roof type, which provides large amount of mew space. The building is set on a concrete foundation, with concrete stable floor. The balance of the build- Ing is of wood.
 As in most modern barns the stalls are placed so that the annals face in. Through the center of the building runs the feed alley. wide enough for a wagon to be driven through. This gives the owner an opportunity to carry the grain feed by wagon directly to the feed bin. from which 1t is dis- tributed by an overhead carrier direct ly to the managers.

buildings, but in the end they more than pay for themselves. Warm ani- malls produce more from the feed they consume for the simple reason that the nourishment is not required to keep them warm. While it is a long time until winter, now is the time to build barns, houses and the other buildings the modern up-to-date farm requires.
 Foresight. someone has said, is bet ter than hindsight. This is true in planning the sort of barn to he erected this year. By taking into considera- ton the facts that the successful farm CTS have found during their experi- ence, the modern farmer will profit in the end. These facts are that good houses are the most important feature in making dairying profitable.
 Illustrated here is the type of barn the modern farmer erects. It is what is known as a plank-frame barn, one constructed of lumber, but framed on the foundation. rather than on the ground. The latter type was popular in the days of the "barn-raising bees" This Is the most economical type of construction, and. at the same time, provides the best sort of weather proof barn for the live stock.
 The dimensions of this barn are 42 by 72 feet. which is amply large for
