Now Cousin Bruin likes corn Just az
well as anybody. He came UP right
beside Jimmy Coon. and he ate corn as
fast as he could. and that was pretty

william was now kneeling down in the
grass. and he never even Thought OF
shouting to scare Cousin Bruin at all!
That was strange to little. William.
But as little William thought OF was
that Cousin Bruin might eat up all the
corn in the whole field, and besides,
he felt sure his mother wanted him.

osition that. considering probable fu-
ture values, horses are about the best
bargain at the present time.
For several years. horses havc been
selling at less than the cost OF produc-
ton, measured in terms OF oats ana
corn and nay A condition Of this sort
can continue for a few years, but In
evitably a point is reached where so
many horsemen go out Of the horse
business that a positive scarcity OF
horses Is created. When that point is
reached, as ii may be in the very near
future. the pendulum will swing the
other way, and horses will increase IN
price until they are selling on parity
with everything else, or higher.
There is no question as to the in
creasing use of the tractor: but we
suspect that the number Of horses II
can replace is being greatly magnified
in the minds Of most people. There are
about $4,000, 900 horses in the country.
The tractor may enable us to get along
with one million less. or possibly two
million less, but the tractor will never
drive the horses from the farms.
In the first place. not all farms are
large enough to support tractor. In
the second place, 1t does not matter
how many tractors may be used to ad-
vantage on the farm, a certain number
of horses must be kept TO do things
which the tractor can not possibly do.
On the farms in Iowa there are 1900
900 horses. The tractor is likely to re-

duce the normal horse population In
Iowa py 100000 or 100000. We suggest
that our readers who are pessimistic
concerning the future or horses make
careful estimates in their own neigh
borhoods Of the number OF horses, ana
Of the number which may be eliminat-
ed by the largest possible use OF the
tractor. We suspect that they Will be
surprised at the result. We will use
tractors in steadily increasing num-
bers, because we will find it profitable
to do so: hut it will not decrease the
number Of horses to anything like the
figure some seem to think 1t will.
The ordinary 1,300-pound farm horse
is now selling at around 500. II corn
for the next few years sells around
dollar a bushel, and If oats and hay
sell at the normal relative prices, the
chances are that within eight years
the price of average horses will ad-
vance by so per cent.
IN these days of remarkable inven-
lions and the adaptation of inventions,
it IS a rash man who makes any hard
and-fast prediction: bat taking into
consideration all Of the known factors
and everything which Is in sight now
that Is likely to have a bearing on the
matter, we feel reasonably safe in sug-
costing that horse prices have just
about reached the bottom and will very
soon be starting on the upgrade.

Now little william, who was hiding
In the long grass beside the lowest
rail, thought it was a funny sight TO
see those two friends, Peter Rabbit
and Jimmy Coon rubbing noses. and TO
see the clever way that Jimmie Coon
pulled off an ear OF corn and picked on
the little kernels and ate them. Little
Peter was sitting up watching, his two
little ears twitching back and forth.
Little William thought. well, Peter
Rabbit is a cunning youngster and II
ne isn't as smart as Jimmy Coon. he Is
so soft and pretty. that it doesn't make
any difference II he is little more

But when that clever Jimmy Coon
began pulling off one ear after another,

bad Jimmy Coon, but at that very

SENATOR ARHEY NAV Dc CANDIDATE.

Senator ". A. Arney's name is among
those mentioned freely by Des Motnes
newspapers and among the politicians
generally as probable candidate for
lieutenant governor. He has not yet
decided TO enter the race though much
pressure is being placed by his friends
over the state.
Should Mr.. Arney conclude to be
show for nomination. Arney was a SEN
ate leader last session, president pro
tenn, a hard worker and very popular
with members OF both houses. He has
a fine working knowledge Of state a1-
fairs gained thru years Of experience
and service in the legislature. He has
been uniformly on the side Of good
business government and defender OF
the good name and morale OF the state
in and out OF mis- official relations and
responsibilities. He is a real and not
make believe farmer. owning several
hundred acres of Marshall county farm
land, on which he worked with his own
hands until mis- recent retirement from
active farming to become president OF
the Iowa Savings hank and which he
still owns and leases TO his sons. AS
business candidate for a business ad-
ninistration of Iowa affairs Mr.. Arney
would be a judicially excellent selec-
ton for the office with which his name
is linked, representing as he does the
successful farmer who has acquired
large holdings thru his own thrift, en-
ergy and business ability ard as ,hs
head Of successful banking inst. l.
ton; for whatever may appeal to the
extreme ideaiists it requires business
man who has been able to properly
| manage private business to properly
safeguard and care for public business

support of his county and his district

parts Of the state.

JULY IA, 1923.

JULY IA, 1929.
The student Of psychology always
finds the tracing Of generations Of
well-known families an interesting
study. An example of this is the
study of the character of John Penn.
grandson Of William Penn. a man
who totally lacked the peculiar gen.
Jus Of the Penn family.
Even after the founder Of Penn
sylvania saw his commonwealth
hourishing. he did not give up his
connection with his English relatives
and the ancestral home. His con,
Richard Penn, lived mostly in Lon
don. and 1t was there that John Penn
was born. However, he was sent to
America rather early, grew up here
and following IN his illustrious grand
fathers steps, took part in all the early
councils. He was appointed lieutenant
governor from England at a time when
the border outrages were violent, and
while the disputes were stilled by the
running of the Mason and Dixon line.
In l773. after visit in England, he
Bturned to Pennsylvania as govern Or,
an arrangement sentimental enough 20
suit the colonists who revered the
memory Of William Penn. Then came
the war of independence, with John
Penn really in sympathy with Eng
land, vet afraid to come out and say
so. Finally the Pennsylvanians took
him from office and put in a commit
tee Of safety. took away his prophet
airy right, all but private property, and
voted him a large sum as consolation
| Whatever Ill feeling existed between
the ex-governor and people died oui
with the end of the war, for Penn lived

adapting his work to the hours of hir-
ed labor. Dew in the morning which

other complications shortened his day
and embarrassed his operations. II

he appealed for its repeal by congress,

From the politicians viewpoint,
which is always the effect on the pop

Gratis are strongest in towns and the
town voter usually votes instead of
husking corn on election day.

THE OUTLOOK FOR HORSES.
TWsllace's Farmer.1

Horses today are cheaper than they
have been for ten years. II is curl
Gus phenomenon that the price OF
horses should actually decline during
a time when the prices OF practically
all other farm products were doubling.
1t is unreasonable to expect that such
condition can continue, and we in
cline 10 the view that young horses to-
day are about the best buy on the mar
ket
Most farmers are still pessimistic
concerning prices of horses. They note
the thousands upon thousands Of au-
tomobiles and tractors being msnufac-
tured. They note that the tractor is
being made more and more fool-proof
each year, and will undoubtedly come
into more general use. And they rea-
son that fewer and fewer horses will
be used on the farm and on the road.
All of which. Of course. is true; but,
being true, does not change the prop
