Shall the man or the woman who o1-

That is question an answer to which
Is desired by large numbers of stu
dents at the tractor schools now being
established. in various parts of the
United States. Tractor operations
have been carried on in somewhat
hit-or-miss fashion thus far, but now
the industry is being stabilized and
permanent terms Of expression are
needed. Farming, in it's relation to
tractors, has apparently been set for
ward a good ten years by the war.
Tractor production has outstripped the
training of operators. Every farm boy
was brought up to manage a horse, but
this big steel beast must be handled
in quite q different way. State tractor
schools provide a short cut for turning

Couldst thou, Great Fairy, give to me,
The instants wish. that l might see
Of all the earth's that one dear sight
Known only in dreams delight
would, beneath some island steep,
In some remote and sunbright deep,
See high in heaven above me now
A palm tree wave its rhythmic bough!
And yet this old pines naughty crown,
Shaking it's clouds of silver down,
Whispers me snatChes of strange tunes
And murmurs of those awful runes
Which tell by subtle spell and power
OF secret sympathies, the hour
When far in the dark north the snow
Among great bergs begins to blow.
Nay, thou sweet South of heats and balms
Keep all thy proud and plumy palms,
Keep all thy fragrant fiowery ease,
Thy purple skies, thy purple seas.
These boughs Of blessings shall not fail,
These voices singing in the gale.
The vigor of these mighty lines:
l will content me with my pines!

Bears have great liking for
honey. A report from Pennsylvania
tells how while man was engaged
In removing some rich wild honey
from the trunk of tree, a big bear
made his appearance. The man,
dumfounded, watched the bear un-

80 feet of him. Then he decided
to get away. About the same time
bruin scented the honey and started
on the run for the tree which con-

eaten the honey that he had placed In,
two pals, but had torn the trunk OF
the tree to splinters and secured the
honey remaining in the tree.

The company is financially strong.
Its assets on December 81 last year
exceeded $775.OO0, 1000; its liabil-
tiles were somewhat over $748,000,-
600, leaving a surplus to policyhold-
ers of more than $27,000,000. It's
assets increased in 1918 by $71,-
429,1S297.
During the war the company en-
tered on many patriotic activities
and in 1918, through its agency and
the home office forces, it solo over
$133.0O0,000 worth of government
securities, of which something over

ernor He built the million dollar

thankful that the capital was COM
pieted when il was. 1t might not
have been completed yet if it had

What effect Longinos entrance
into the race will have is problemat-
zeal. There is pretty wide cry
against factionalism in this state,
but after analysis it seems to be
more of opposition to Bilbo than
anything else. People want to get
rid of Bilbo and all his crowd. II
this analysis of political conditions
is true, the former governors en-
trance into the political arena will
weaken Johnston. The opposition
TO Bilbo seems to be centering upon
him and every vote for Longino will
be an anti-Bilbo vote taken away
from the Delta man. This seems
logical. Then, there is quite re-
spectacle Longino following still in
the state They are men who voted
for him originally and who appre-
ciated the clean administration that
he gave. Then, the man who is
tired of fractional politics will lean
to him With factionalism engen-
dering the fires of political strife
Longino ought to be most formid-
able factor in the run-off.

Grafton would be given to the pro-
posal to sell wheat at the market
price, allowing the government to
absorb the difference between that
and the S2.26 bushel guaranteed
the farmers. Several officials have
expressed the opinion that free mar

clines in the price of flour which
would bring down other staples ma

the president that inasmuch as the
increases being asked by all classes
of railroad workers aggregated $780,
100000 year, he hoped something
might be done to reduce the cost of
living as an alternative, because he
doubted that his powers were suffi-
Gent to increase rates enough to
meet the vast sum-
Mr.. Hines also asked that the rail
road administration be allowed to
continue to handle questions of rules
and working conditions, saying these
could not be satisfactorily separated
from the current handling Of rail
road operations.
One suggestion made, Mr.. Palmer
said, was that the government sell
this years wheat crop at the mar
ket price, to be determined by the
law Of supply and demand and make
up the guarantee to the farmers out
of the billion dollar fund appropria-
ted by congress.
Deficit Now % Million.
Net operating income of the roads
under federal control amounted to
approximately $51, 100000 in June
leaving deficit Of 1928, 100000, COM
pared with one-twelfth Of the guar
anteed annual rental and deficit OF
$50, 100000 as compared with the
average income in June of the three
year test period on which the annual
rental was based.
The bureau of railways economics
made public figures showing that re-
venues in the first six months of this
pear amounted to $2,352, 949, 900 as
compared with 1866, ISL 900 for the
same length Of time during the test
period, an increase of Al percent.
Net operating income, however, has
been about sixty percent less, due to
increases of 70 percent in expenses
and IL percent in taxes.
Increase WoWuld Add Billion.
In the face of the growing deficit,
the railroad administration now has
before it, demands for increased
wages which would mean an addition
of between $8OO,OOO,O0O and $1,000
100000 to the payrolls. All of the
demands are backed by statistics with
the purpose of showing that steadily
mounting prices for all things which
a man eats or wears have wiped out
all previous advances, leaving the
employees perhaps worse off finan-
,cially than they were before.
Indicative Of the unrest caused by
such conditions which union leaders
have frankly said would result Gin
upheavaT if not corrected quickly,
was the strike today of shopmen in
the middlewest and south, notwith-
standing orders form union officials
to remain at work pending discussion
of their demands.
Directcr-General Hines had con-
ference late today with Senator Cum
minis and Representative Esch, chair
man of the congressional commerce
committees, at which he discussed
the labor crisis and explained his
views that additional wage increases
should come from commission crea-
ted by congress. He promised to
draft and submit bill which would
embody his ideas.
