ney, president Of the league, who has
been advised that hackers Of the club

ing season.
Thomas P. Fairweather. president OF
the club. and mayor Of Des Moines
will enlist the aid Of commercial OF.
ganizations to revive the baseball
spirit Of the city. Mayor Fairweather.
however, does not contemplate . guar
anteed ticket sale at this time to as
sure the required attendance, but will
line UP commercial organisations for
the drive just before the opening Of
the season. In the meantime. Mayor
Fairweather will personally guarantee
that Des Moines will retain Its fran
chtse. e \ II
The attendance at Des Moines dur
ing the past season vas q disappoint-
ment to the other club owners and no.
tice was served at the recent meeting
Of the league In Chicago that unless
better support was assured the club
for the next season, the franchise
would be transferred. The city must
guarantee an attendance Of 10000 for
1920 or lose its berth. which means
that the attendance next season must
be increased 10000 over the paid ad-
missions Of the 1919 campaign.
The only thin ice in the league last
season was at Dee Moines. In the
other seven cities the season was
financial success. the total attendance

Iowa land prices ut $500 TO vb0V PEI
acre are here TO stay in the opinion
OF Charles X, Cameron, president OF
the Iowa state board Of agriculture
and the prices Of farm products VIII
not 60 back to where they we're before
the war. President Cameron 30 de-
clared IN his annual address before the
state AGRICULTURAL convention at tho
state house Wednesday
"a few years ago I made the pre-
Ndlction in one of my addresses to this
body that land In Iowa in tho near
future would DO selling at from $soV
TO $500 per acre. said Mr.. Cameron
That has come true. No doubt the
war brought this condition about
sooner theA natural conditions would
have DONE However 1t Is here ana ~
Is here to stay. People ask me II
think this land will stay at that price
and | say II certainly wills. II may
not go higher for some time but 40
not think itstwill 60 back.
DO YOU expect farm products to go
back to the same level as. they were
before the war? do not. Wages
and everything else that enters into
the production of the farm has gone
up. The government contracted an
enormous debt during the war and the
debt was contracted during the period
of high prices. If the prices should
now decline TO what they We're before
the, war ne could ndver pay on this
debt.
in my opinion the farmer Will con-
tinue to sell his hogs FOR $40 per
hundred and over and his corn for
81 per bushel and other things In pro-
portion for some time to come.
Don't keep on talking about lower
ing prices but talk about equalizins
conditions and when you have done
tina. you have solved the condition OF
unrest which. now prevails among our
people. 1t win take some time to DO
this but I have great faith in America
for she has meyer yet tried to do any
thing and failed.
President Cameron predicted that IN
the near future 1t will be necessary to
hold the Iowa State fair for full two
weeks. He said the enormous expense
necessary to carry on the fair Is
forcing this matter because II a rainy
week should prevail during the prin-
cipal attendance period 1t would
almost bankrupt the fair. He said
another reason Is that the farmers are
so situated that they cannot all come
the same week. Part come one week
and part the next.
