WILL M,C swINEY DIE?

suicide Is a crime: men are not al- lowed to commit crimes outside or inside prison. The Lord Mayor of Cork. Terrence Mac swiney should not bc allowed to take his own life by refusing food in prison if there is any way to prevent his doing so. Medical science is able to provide a way in which he. as we'll as other hunEer-striking prisoners. may be fed.
 lt is said that there is a strong feeling fin England that this stand should be taken, despite the fact that the Cabinet, as whole. decided to let him die. It Is now reported that the government Is on the point of re- versing itself
 An appeal to Secretary of State Colby to take a hand in the matter is said to have met with sympathetic response. There is no question but that the feeling of the majority of the people of this country would be reused against England at a time when We should have the most cor dial relations with her, should the Lord Mayor of Cork he allowed to give way to tho depression of mind and discouragemcnt over the cause he loves, by ending his own life in this tragic manner.
 While believing that one should use due discretion in referring to tho England-1reland situation. and while one recognizes how England is tied up 10 tho portion of Ireland that has remained loyal in thought and deed to her. there Is no denying that the sympathy of tho American people is with tho Irish in their aspirations in regard to scif-government. This is the language of the resolution passed by the Senate. ahd there is no need to touch further on the matter in a discussion of tho. matter of allowing Mae swiney to die in prison.
 On the general subject be it said that man who attempts to commit suicide is usually temporarily insane. Tn many cases lis zeal over sme re- ligious or political cause overpowers hts sense of proportion. The early Christians believed themselves happy in their martyrdom to the Faith Few men Of that type are found today. Few are the prisoners who would carry a hunger strike as far as has the Lord Mayor of Cork. But it is believed that he is of that type. He must not bo allowed to die thus. Ire land would ever forget it: England would always rue 1t, the affairs of the world would suffer. and a man would perish because of his loyalty to a cause he believes to he just

"JEST RUMINATTN'," Robert Russell.)

How corkin' it would be if men could pleasantly agree on wages that would have ,-the stamp of perfect equity, Elm ployes think their bosses pay jest half O what they're worth. an bosses think some workin' men encumbereth the earth. It's probable that both are wrong an both are partly right, but that's no reason men should wage an everlastin' fight. Jest let the bosses, for a week, re- place their hired men, an let the workers figure things with their employers pen. Try putin O yourselves straight in the other fellows place-we'd find the view wed get would have a very diff'rent face. The one would see the troubles O the other an would know how far the pay he gives him for his weekly work would go: the other would be anxious that the payroll might be raised-an' when the week was over boss an men would be amazed. For every man has got his field; there's worries in 'em all; all men have got their grievances, great, medium or small.

RAINS PUT SOIL IN
SHAPE FOR FLOWING

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 13-Fair to
good rains in all parts Of the state put
the soil in fine shape for blowing and
work is progressing rapidly. says the
weekly report of George G. Bryant,
agricultural statistician for Indiana,
to the department of agriculture. Silo
filling also is occupying the attention
of the farmers and many new ones are
being built, he says.
Corn cutting is starting in some Of
the earlier fields, but most of the crop
will not mature for FIVE or six weeks.
Seeding of winter wheat and rye will
start in the northern part of the state
in about 10 days.
The oats crop is being threshed with
exceptionally high yields in the north
ern part of the state, some fields yield
ing an average of 80 to 80 bushers to
the acre.
Young clover, says the report, looks
good and clover seed in some localities
is making good yields.
Fruit is abundant in the northern
part of the state but the yield in the
south is not so heavy except in well
cared for orchards.
Plackleg in cattle has been reported
in some southern counties and hog
cholera in the east.
There is no labor shortage.

OHIO FARMER WATTS
FOR HIGHER WHEAT

Stephen Kuth, living across the
Ohio line in Preble, has not been in a
great hurry to market his wheat in
the past two years. In fact he thresh-
ed both 1919 and 1920 crops as late as
last Friday and Saturday, and has put
both crops in his granary, to await
market price which suits his taste.
When the Kuth 1919 crop was safely
in the stack he went fishing; when
he returned the threshing rigs had
been covered for the winter. He
stacked his wheat again this year,
then took a five-week trip to the east
ern mountains and sea. His son,
Champ, came to his relief with his
threshing outfit last week and the
Job is done. Mr.. Kuth maintains that
it is much more convenient, and less
expensive, to thresh from the stack.
That fewer men are needed and that
if break down occurs you do not
have a raft of men and teams held up
in the field. He also says that wheat
is handled with less loss of grain
where stacked when most convenient
to handle from shocks to stack.
Bountiful threshing dinners were
served at the Kuth home. Mr.. kuth
is bull on wheat and says I'VE
haven't begun to see the top on
prices" in his opinion.
