What
In Iowa Auto Law
SECTIONS EFFECTIVE JULY

Those sections OF the new state
automobile law that 20 into force July
l are preliminary and In preparatio
for the enforcement OF the whole law
Dec, I. The parts OF the law that 20
into force July relate'to the tillng OF
price lists and weights of cars and
other motor vehicles by the manu-
facturers with the state department.
The time limit for these filings was
June L.
From these lists the executive coun-
ell Is to prepare the schedule OF rates
for motor vehicle licenses. other Sec
tions Of the law that go into effect
July ] refer to the preparations OF
books blanks and records for the en-
forcament OF the law, the letting OF
contracts for the plates for next year
and other minor details,
The law makes II the duty of every
manufacturer. distributor. dealer or
other person selling or Offering for
sale a motor vehicle In the state to fle
n sworn statement with the secretary
OF state showing the various models OF
motor vehicles manufactured or sold
by him and the retail price and weight
as of June OF that year. No motor
vehicle will be registered In the state
unless the manufacturer or dealed fies
such list.
From these lists the law says: The
executive council shall annually clas-
sify (prior to July 15) all such motor
vehicles by values and weight. The
value shall be fixed at the next even
800 above the retail list price when
new, Z. O. b. the factory. and the weight
shall be fixed at the next even 100
pounds above the manufacturer ship
ping weight or the actual weight Of
the vehicle fully equipped"
1t will be noted that this section o.
the law specifically fixes the valuation
price as the price when new. whScn
is Of importance to owners Of cars
bought before the advances "f the last
year or two. For example: The Owner
bought a car In 1917 TOR $1,000, that Is
now selling at $1,000 pays, a license
fee based on the price at the factory OF
$1,000, the price when new and not on
the present price OF the same model.

weight. etc, Is to be supplied the ex-
ecutive council by the secretary OF
state by July 2. Such lists are to be
furnished annually. with additions and
corrections. of all cars registered. The
same provisions cover trailers and

The only motor vehicles exempted

Prospects that strawberries might &c
to something near pre-war prices
seem to have gone glimmering with the
recent advances in the local marker
and the probability that the season
will end within ten days. In spite OF
the unusually large crop locally 1t does
not seem now that the production
would any where nearly meet \the de-
mands. Just why there has been such
an unusual demand for strawberries
no one seems able to explain. The
facts are. however, that people are 10
eager for the berries that they are go
ing into the country, picking the ber-
ries themselves and in a great many
cases furnishing boxes and crates, Or
other containers, to bring the fruit
home in. ..
This securing Of the nearby territory
by city people may be an important
influence in advancing the price. Par
tieularly is this true because most
growers cannot get crates and boxes
in which to market the berries away
from home. With the buyers willing to
furnish containers and in some cases
pick the berries, growers are not con-
corning themselves about bringing the
fruit to market.
Prices up to $3.75.
The retail price per crate today at
those stores in the city where the ber-
ries could be had was 1915 and there
Is no indication that the prices prob
ably will be lower before the season
ends. The price per crate has ranged
from SO to 1915 this week. Where
users are picking berries CT furnish
ing boxes and crates in the country
and nearby towns the price has been
ranging from $3.50 to So crate.
The season has been excellent for
the production of an extraordinarily
large crop excepting for the high tenn
perature following the frequent rains
which have softened the berries ana
caused them to rot quickly on the
plants. There has been a consider
able shrinkage in the production due
to this cause and for the additional
reason that growers could not get
boxes. For this reason quantities Of
berries have rotted on the ground In
some patches.
Boxes Can't Be Had.
No explanation can be given why
Boxes and crates are not available.
They are not handled in quantities by
any local wholesaler, the practice be-
ing for growers to buy direct from the
makers. Either the growers did not do
this or the crop was so much larger
than their estimate that they soon ran
out. In any event boxes have not been
obtainable here recently. One whole
saler. who does not handle boxes reg
ularly, was able to get, in $4,000 this
morning but he expected they would
be all gone by noon.

As a pianist her capabilities are not

and from the press reports of many of

gift and rare musical technique We
find her generally acknowledged pro

She l. worthy Of our race devotion
and support. She has opened a studio

will now be given the rare opportunity
of availing themselves of the best mu

in the west.
The Broad AK takes special delight
in this young woman's rare ability be
cause of her very great achievements
and because by her rare charm and
versatility she has won for the race a
place in the sun.
Here again is the opportunity for
the race to show its noblest spirit in
sustaining the real and the ideal. We
cannot give a matter of such moment
merely passing praise. We must exer-
else the prOfoundest consideration in

SHE WAS A LADY FAIR,

How to make the people like you
lis without doubt a fine art, and it can
be cultivated. Lots Of people act as
lif they wish 10 be hated. Recently
something seems to have come over
the race. that has checked its famous
docile spirit. 1t IS not easy grace
that for years made us easy to ap-
proaoh. Often you see people that
seem cold and Indifferent and you'd
suppose that it was a cultivated art,
when 10! they are just showing the
acquired graces we borrow from the
people OF the frigid northern cline
Peoples politeness alas! However,
is taken too often for Establishments.
At any rate it is very easy to be right
and polite and pleasant with people
who show kindly anxiety to become
acquainted and yet it is very often
bad form to encourage attentions of
men because they too frequently mis-
take a kindly manner for a DISPOSE
ton that is inclined to appreciate ad-
vances of the improper kind.
In this era of the world, true wo-
manhood is at a discount The rea-
son being that all or nearly all men
are rascals, and are looking for those
they can get
The hypocrite will dispute the
above statement for it expresses the
moral depravity of men to a letter,
but for heavens sake keep the little
girls out of the reach of the scoun-
drel that makes any pretense to
goodness whatsoever.
But we have been growing and If
the art to make people like you is to
become one of our saving graces, let
US cultivate first making our own race
like itself
Society is shot to pieces by a thou
sand ugly charges that the art is ear
ried too far in making people like
US, that are not of US.
The writer witnessed just such a
scene recently, the lady ranked high
er than many of the best we know,
but she was a mess of grins and
SMILES in conversation with third
rate poor white fellow. The scene
was sickening, a gentleman of her
race bowed politely with his hat in
his hand and the panther kitten of
her animal blood cut him into rib
bons with eyes sharp as hell
But she knew the art of making
white men like her and also acted as
if she wished to be hated.
