EASTERN FARMERS BUYING
 OXEN TO WORK ON FARMS

KANSAS CITY, July 21-While thousands of tractors are reported to be on their way west, shipped to farmers from Eastern manufacturers there is a representative of Connecti- cut farmers in Kansas City buying oxen to work on Connecticut farms.
 This man is c. F. Colcoid, an Illinois farmer, who also migrates to Connecticut and represents farm CTS there.
 Mr. Colcoid attends the sales at the stock yard, keeping on the look out for old steers which would not be very good as beef cattle but which are usable as work cattle. These he buys and sends back to Connecticut where they are auction ed of to farmers. Owing to the conditions of the hilly country he states that they are the most p-acti- cal motive power for pulling blows and farm machines.

Arrangements are being made to run an excursion train to Fairbanks on Sunday, the object being to give the Nenana ball boys an op- portunity to play a return game with the Fairbanks team, and to enable local fans to accompany them.

LACK OF TRANSFORMATION
 HOLDING KANTIsHNA BACK

Lack of roads in the Kantishna district has delayed the commence ment of operations on at least two big placer projects a whole year, ac- cording to J C. VanOrsdel, head of the Mt. Mckinley Gold Placers, who has just arrived in Nenana from the properties of his company in the Kantishna. If we had had roads," said Mir. Van Orsdel to a represent ative of The News, i've would have been operating on our holdings by this time, but as it is, the commence ment of our work has been delayed a whole year. And the same is true of the Sutherland-Howell hydraulic project on Moose creek"
 The Van Orsdel holdings are 12 miles from the Bearpaw river, and all of the hauling thus far done has been accomplished with the greatest difficulty imaginable, through a low swampy country, and without even the crudest sort of a road. The work was such that it finally had to be abandoned altogether, to await the coming of snow.
 Dr. Sutherland and his associates have q haul of 30 miles from the Kantishna river, al Roosevelt Land ing. Considerable money has been expended on road word in that To- cality, but the road between the river and Moose creek is impossible now, difficult of negotiation even for a pack train. It is a good w.nter road, but absolutely unfit for sum- mer use. The result IS that the hydraulic operation on Moose creek cannot be started before next sum mer.
 Besides these comparatively new placer projects, there are a consider able number of hard rock propo- sitions, rich in ore but undeveloped because of the lack of roads. Many of the properties were located years ago, and the agitation for road work has been loud and continuous, but without avail. Nothing was ever done in that district in the way of road building until small sum was obtained from the territory to start winter road from Roosevelt, and the Kantishna oldtimers feel, in view of the showing made by them, that they have not been treated with fai-- ness. s.. .~: ...

CHEAP MONEY IS PLENTIFUL;
 AUSTRIAN CONDITIONS GOOD

VIENNA, June 14-Finance and economics seem to have parted company in Austria. With its money situation chaotic there is at the same time a generally acknowledged betterment of conditions of living.
 Travellers revisiting Vienna say they do not recognize the city of a year ago. The mass of the people are better dressed and more plenti- ful food Is shown in their healthy appearance. The green and sallow faces have disappeared and on the whole the Viennese are nearly back to normal as far as external evil dence goes.
 Paris can hardly show more fashionably dressed crowd of women than that which turns out for the ring promenade in the afternoon or throngs the high-class shopping dis trict in the mornings.
 The shop display of luxurious wares of every description increases until the Arbeiter Zeitung says it exceeds Vienna's best days of before the war. The same newspaper ad- mits there is steady progress and betterment in business and general conditions.
 The famous delicatessen shops are reopening with almost their old time excellence The windows are filled with fancy dainties for which the city was noted; canned stuffs of the finest foreign makes are to be bought. American crackers and bis cults are common in the groveries; the candy shops are restocked and while last winter a pound of sweets was virtually unprocurable, the fin est fresh bonbons now are to be had in any quantity.
 White bread is served in nearly every restaurant and the bakery windows again display the famous Vienna pastries and cakes. In the poorer districts even the butcher shops and groveries reflect the same condition.
 Turning to finance, the current statement of the Austro- Hungarian bank speaks for it. There are at the moment forty-ive billion crowns in circulation and four billions out standing treasury notes issued to the banks for discount But this cheap money is plentiful. Everyone seems to have it and to be spending it. Enormously advanced prices for everything seem not to have affected the volume of business. Printing presses are now turning out round five billion crowns month to meet the government expenses. The cur rent budget shows a deficit of fifty billion crowns. The wealth levy has produced thus far about nine billion crowns, one half of which was paid in war bonds, leaving enough cash from this source to meet about one months running expenses for the government.
 Through it's spokesman and news papers the government is urging the need of haste in the proposed credit plan of the League of Nations by which enough foreign capital IS sought to establish a bank of issue whose new currency on gold basis is expected to gradually retire and stabilize the value of the present crown. -..

when IT'S NEEDED

The American Legion, in an ad-
dress to the public, asks that SER
vice men be given preference in sell
Getting employees. The Legion says
600,0U0 service men are idle, many
of them walking the streets, wonder
ing where their next meal is coming
from. In some states relief laws
are operating to furnish these \men
with the necessities of life, but most
states have no such law. Congress
mas delayed action on disability and
compensation bills until they will be
too late to prevent suffering this
winter. This is subject that
should be very near every American
heart. Such a situation would not
have been tolerated for a minute in
1917 and 1918, and should not be
tolerated now. There is just as
strong reason for the solicitude for
the service man today as three vnars
ago when he was in acrtonment,
I'll transport or IN ne brencngs. IL
there's citizen of Wauseon who can
aid even one OF these service men,
NOW is the time he needs it most.

WHAT SERVICE COSTS

We hear a good deal of talk about
service" among Wauseon citizens,
and often wonder if they realize just
what service costs. We wonder if
they realize that service is a sort of
invisible tax, and that if we insist on
service we must pay that tax. Ac-
cording to a statistician, 37c of the
consumers dollar represents the cost
OF producing the article, 14c repre-
sents all profits and 49c the cost of
service. In other words, a farmer
sells pound of beef, on the hoof, at
the stockyards in Chicago, and then
goes down town to a restaurant and
pays a dollar for it. This does not
mean, however, that somebody, or a
group of somebodies is profteering
to the tune of 90c. Perhaps nobody
has profiteered-the man who sold
the beef paid for service. Of course
he didn't want to kill the steer and
dress it, and keep the meat on ice,
neither did he want to put II on the
end of a stick and hang it over a fire
to cook. He wanted to sit down to
table with linen and silverware on
it; he wanted music from an orches-
ira while he was eating, and g waiter
to carry him ice water and stand at
his side for further orders. He want
ed that thing we call Service" and
ne got it and paid for it.
1t mas come to be a pretty costly
tax, this service tax, but the Ameri
can people demard it, they are will
ing to pay for it, so that ends the
argument. Only we wish that some
time we corld do away with a lot #
Unnecessary service, just to see if we
wouldn't be as happy-and also TO
see if we wouldn't have a little more
money in our pockets.

REGISTRATION RECEIPTS
OF MOTOR
lbs VEHICLES INCREASE

A total of 9,245,195 assenger auto
mobiles trucks, and commercial vehi-
cles 28,114 trailers and 1T ,234 motor
cycles were registered in the 4S
states and the District of Columbia
during the first six months of the
present year, according to the Bureau
of Public Roads, United States De-
partment of Agriculture. AS a re-
suit of these registrations and the
licensing of drivers, the States and
District collected during that period,
a total gross revenue Of $108,213, 1856.
The figures show an increase of near
ly $6,0O0,0O0 over the full year of
1920 when such revenues totaled
$1O2, 2,546,212.
"Of the 1920 registration rev.
enuss," says the bureau, 1897 ,671,-
742 or 95 per cent, was available for
road work. Of the registration rev.
enues collected during the first six
months of the current year $101, ,793,-
416 is available for road work, either
by the State highway departments
or local road officials" The per
centage of the gross during that
period is 94-an apparent decrease of
l per cent, but the increase seems
more apparent than real, because in
some States the funds do not become
available until the end of the year.
Ten State legislatures have i'm
posed a tax on gasoline during the
current year. They are Arkansas,
Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, Geor-
gia, Montana, North Carolina, Penn
sylvania, South Dakota and Wash
ington. Prior to this year Colorado,
Kentucky, New Mexico and Oregon
had levied such tax. The State of
Louisiana has written such measure
into it's new constitution.

FIND BETTER WAY TO
HANG Up SEED CORN
College Workers Drive Nails in Pal
ings and Stick on Ears
ButtS-Inward

What is believed to be an improve
ment over the old string-sling method
of hanging seed corn has been worked
out by farm crops specialists of the
Ohio State University, and is being
used on the College farms.
A piece of board about the size of
a picket-fence paling is taken, and
naHs are driven through it about
every 5 inches along its length. 1t
is then turned over and nails are
driven through in the other direction,
each nail inches apart and half way
between the nails driven from the
other side.
The board is then hung vertically
and the. butts of the seed ears thrust
cpon the points of the nails that pro-
tiGde alternately from each side.
