GETTING ALONG WITH FEWER
HIRED MEN

We have received more inquiries
this spring for information as to how
to design 3, 4 and 5-horse bitches than
in many other springs combined. This
increased interest in enlarging the
team is no doubt due to the fact that
horses and feed are cheap and hired
help is dear. The farmer has decided
to economic his own time and that
of the men he has more effective
This is in line with general agricul.
tural progress. AS labor saving ma.
chinery has been perfected, the size
of the individual farm has increased
and more people have been released
from the farm to work in town Up to
the present the town has needed all
the help the farmer could release
Whether the upset conditions of the
world will so curtail our foreign sales
that the city cannot use all the help
it has remains, of course, to be seen
At any rate the farmer is planning
to get along without much hired help
as long as the prices of labor and
farm products remain as they are. II

jobs they will be in bad fix, for the
farmer has determined not to- use

BARROW ON SOCIALISM

While in Baraboo Clarence S. OAR
row very well expressed his ideas on
socialism. Radical socialists would
like equality in all respects, equality
in business, in holding property, in
old age advantages, and in many
other ways. The noted Chicago at
torney holds this is not possible be-
cause all persons are not alike. AS
a result of heredity and environment
(more of the former than of the lat
ter, barrow holds) men are not
equal. Some are Longfellows and
some are Shakespeares while others
cannot write their own name, do not
know one word from another. Some
have iniative and push forward while
others are content to drift with the
current. Again, stating Darrow's
position, socialism cannot succeed
since all men are not equal in any
respect.

South Dakota or Roosevelt? is the
cry in South Dakota There have
been plenty of bank failures in North
Dakota and South Dakota does not
care to be tickled under the chin and
called her sister state In short,
South Dakota does not desire to be
responsible for the weaknesses of
North Dakota. South Dakota was
once the home of Theodore Roosevelt
and to name the state in honor of the
former president might not be map
propriate. Such a movement is in the

There is too much cotton, reports
Hon. T. w. English who spent the
winter in Memphis, one of the cot
ton .centers of the country and the 10
cation of the largest cotton ware
houses in the world The warehouses
are full, it is piled along the wharves
to deteriorate in the weather, and
stored by the planters. During the
war the price jumped to about fifty
cents pound and has now sagged to
between four and eight cents, all de-
pending on the quality. The crash
that came after the war sounded
much like the hop panic in Sank
county years ago. Banks refuse to loan
more money on the product, the
growers cannot sell except at a low
figure, and the situation is anything
but pleasant, The planters claim it
costs more to grow pound than it
will bring in the open market. Mr..
English talked with salesman of
cotton gins and learned that mum

could not be collected. Automobile

dealers have sold machines on time
and cannot collect cent; some are
going bankrupt
While Mr. English was in Memphis
there was meeting to discuss the
situation and the sentiment largely
prevailed that less cotton should be
grown In fact farmers, merchants,
bankers, and land owners are sign
ling pledges not to plant more than
IIone-third of the land to cotton. The
Baraboo citizen asked one planter
what he intended to do about it and
he said that he would plant the grave
yard to cotton if he wanted to. All
are not of one mind.
When Mr. English suggested to a
planter that he raise corn instead of
cotton, the reply was: what shall we
do with the niggers ~ The colored
people know how to grow cotton but
mot other products. Cotton they can
not eat, they cannot wear, they can
not wear, they cannot use in any
way. If corn, hogs, and other. products
were attempted much of it would dis
appear, they claim.

Miss Title and Miss Zero, report a

city has fine water, beautiful parks,
and many attractions for the visitor.

PLIGHT OF THE RAILROADS

The railroads are not earning
enough money to pay their own way,
according to their figures. They are
not earning enough to pay rent, tax
es, interest, and operating expenses
The situation is ominous. For years
the roads have been steadily falling
behind, with expenses increasing
more rapidly than revenues, and there
fore with the net operating income
steadily declining. Note the figures:
Net income, 1917 1894, 068, 900
Net income, 1913 $500 638, 568, 900
Net income, 1919 $1,000 $4,000, 900
Net income, 1920 ----- 1926, 900
Many firms are refusing to ship on
account of the high rate, especially
to the far west Individuals will not
travel and it seems the goose. that
laid the golden egg has been killed.
The only way to revive the bird is to
reduce the outgo and that is the
problem now before the transporta-
ton systems of the country.

would require so many to perform

about $4,000, yet this seems to be
true. The growth Of civilization has
become more and more complex and
this accounts for the growth of the

Concerning Jake Hamon, killed
some time ago by Mrs. Clara Smith
Hamon, recently acquitted, the Elroy
Tribune says in part:
1.-THE late Jake Hamon is not a
stranger to Baraboo folk. He was as
ISOLATED with John Ringing in the
building of railway into the oil
country of Oklahoma, and it is said
that a profitable venture it was to
both of them. While this business
association was going on, the murder
ed man was many times with the Ring
ling Circus in consultation with John
Ringing relative to matters of policy
regarding the railway he was build
ing in which the Ringing Brother was
half owner.
From this incidental or accidental
acquaintance those from Baraboo,
then with the circus formed rather
adverse opinion of the man Hamon.
And this same thought came to John
Ringing when he had become invol.
we'd with him in the big business
{, transaction, for he utterly repudiat-
ed him. Surely the man Hamon was
! a strange character With all his
great wealth he lived in second

CHICAGO. Aug. 2S.-The big
Four railroad brotherhoods are

organization it was learned today.
According to a resolution adopted
by the officials of these train serv-
ice organizations in a meeting here
last July, this vote was to be taken
starting September l, and was to
pass on whether the big four"
would accept the wage cut Of June
80.
But ii Is learned the vote is al
ready being taken and will be COM
pleted by September !.
The completeness with which all
of the hundreds of thousands of
train service are being canvassed
is viewed as the most ominous sign
that general transportation inter-
ruption impends. r
~ Representatives of the big four"
are being hurried to every railroad
center to get the vote of every
single member of the four big or
ganizations. In the past the vote
oc these organizations on matters
