We wouldn't be surprised to learn
that this state is one of the greatest
consumers of rubber in America.
Look at all the rubber necessary to
keep A. C. Townley's rubber stamp
gang in repair.
If Governor Edwards makes the
Tinted States as wet as the Atlantic
Ocean like another New Jersey gov
ernor-Woodrow Wilson-reduced the
high cost Of living and kept US OUT OF
war, we see right now wher e1la'
ocean is going to 60 dry.
Edwin T. Meredith, secretary OF ag-
rjculture, admits that the farmers ale
facing much more complex proo'en'
tim during the past two seasons: ~ ~
the April number of the World OUTDOOR
he nroposes this solution:
"Maintain economically efficient pro-
,7nction on such acreage as aVallan1e
capital, equipment and labor permits.
Speculative plunging IN single clop
a ariculture, always dangerous, IS pc
culiarly so at this time. ..;,,
"The most certain prospect tor 1alr
roturns is through well-balanced nor
mi acreage and normal livestock op-
Grafton, This tends toward MAXIMUM
tot.j production with least clmatc
So1.rd II also tends to insure low
est average cost of product1on! wn.on'
in the long run: is in the best ln'eles'
of both producer and consumer, piual
vided distribution is efnclentls oil"
economically accomplished.
Charles E. Hughes may not nave
sssayed 100 per cent as presloenllai
"andidate back in 1916, but as law
WOW and as a money -getter IN the le-
y y f;eid it doesn't seem he has any
s s competitors. Friends of the
former republican candidate say that
his income is 100000 a year: II ne
rea1lv makes that $1,000 200 hughes
; shaking more out of strictly legai
n,ork than any other lawyer IN TINS
country. Hughes present income IS
in striking contrast to what ne recesv
Cd as a Justice of the U. $. supreme RE-
court. That position pays $l4'9ou
wear. When Hughes was de1eateo 10,
I've presidency some said he MADE
W; stake in resigning from the supreme
conrt in order to run. But did ne
What really happened in November

Cs1;fornia-kicked Hughes upstairs
into a position paying aponI say
times what his former one had ylelo-
ed So busy is Hughes law otf'ce on

Governor Frazier will have to call
]ovn some of his pet newspapers par
,icu}arlv the Courier News, which mas
,een telling the people that State Au-
litor Kositzkv should be fired from MS
office, In the light Of an investigation
nv the governors bank examiners OF
The state auditors Office, and OF the re
port made, if the governor is ran
minded man, he cannot help out en-
9orse the candidacy Of Carl kosltzkv'
Deputy bank examiners nave com
,leted an investigation of kosltzky's
,ffice and accounts, making their re-
,ort direct to the governor. IN TINS
export the deputy examiners told the
governor a tale about the state audi

We checked the warrants issued reg

governor.
The nomination by the nti-Townley
'orces Of N. P. Langen1o as candidate
Tor the legislature from the thirty
eighth district Of Barnes county:
seems to have struck a popular chord
n that district. Many farmers will
ALLY to his support because they be-
ieve that he is fair minded man
who will give the county and district
1 square deal. The same may be said
If NJ. O. Grangaard, Of Rogers, nom
mated in the fifteenth district. His
nomination is hailed with delight in
he north end Of the county and from
present indications both gentlemen
Will be elected. Senator Frank Ploy-
lar seems to have given satisfaction
n all quarters of his district and we,
eel sure that he will be returned.
This is the year when the people of
he state want square deal all around

ouid not break away from the social
site hypnotism that Townley and his
