AN ANSWER TO Why,

Why did leave the farm? YOU ask:
Why did bolt and leave my task;
Why did l beat it off to town,
And turn my poor old father down?
You say that thinkers and the press
Are wallowing in deep distress;
They seek to know the hidden cause
Why farmer boys desert their pas.
Well, stranger, don't mean any
harm,
But how many thinkers stay on the
farm?
Some city chap who was eating pie
Put in my mouth an awful lie,
didn't leave because my dad
Took all my pets and made me mad:
My father did the best he could,
With all the family saving wood;
We raised the pork and beans and
grits
While city loafers gave us fits,
The price of jeans went out of sight,
So we worked later in the night.
We sold our wool for fifty cents;
Paid fifteen dollars for Sunday pants
My mother slaved, and toiled and
wrought;
A'@s SiceSi III tiiC LduRnI.
And if she had good luck. I guess
That two months salary" bought a
dress.
NV father said, "Boy, I'm tied here
But don't you stay another year;
You go and live on the fat of the land
Fall in with the "grafterS', join the
band;
I'll come this fall. if I can lease,
And we'll help the profiteers gouge
and fleece"
So that's the reason I'm here, old bo,
I'm after the shekels, if you must
know.
You tell the thinkers" behind the
moat
That the farmer is tired of playing
tho goat.
You may build your houses to meet
tho need,
For the farmer is coming to this rich
feed
A festival rare. on the fat of the land
The thinkers" don't know-but the
track needs sand;
Farmer Atlas has weakened, you're
all outa luck;
Before his backs broken tho camel
has struck!

OHIO D DEMOCRATIC
CONTRIBUTION WAS
A PERSONAL OFFER

Dayton, Ohio, Oct. 9.-That the
Dayton Metal Products company paid
the $4,000 note which Governor Cox,
Democratic presidential candidate,
gave 10 the City National Bank of
Dayton was testified today by III.
E. Talbot. OF the company, at the
senate subcommittee hearing here
today.
Mr.. Talbot explained in detail why
the company paid the note, asserting
that through an effort of many
members OF the Dayton city commits
sion, conferences between Democrats
and Republicans were held in an ef-
fort to agree upon candidates.
He said that after the election,
Governor Cox told him that as a re-
suit of the delay in starting the
campaign the Democratic organiza-
ton had been unable to raise suffi-
cient funds and that he Governor
Cox had discounted his personal
note for $4,000 to get the money
and that he thought the committee
which sought to bring about an
agreement on candidates should pay
the note. Mr.. Talbot explained, how
ever that the conferences between
the Democrats and Republicans
brought no results and that the two
parties supported their own candi-
dates.
Though the note was paid by the
Dayton Metal Products company, Mr..
Talbot said he did not consider it
a contribution by the corporation,
but a personal one by himself.
