TRACTORS VS.. HORSES.

1t seems cruel to put a horse in a contesta against a machine, n the
death of two horses and complete exhaustion Of half a dozen other teams
which were entered in competition with tractors at the first of this years
National Tractor Demonstration at Fargo, N. Oak, June 1880 doubtless
will result in the preclusion of horses from any future generations. This
was the opinion, after the Fargo event, of tractor manufacturers repre-
sentaNves who stated almost unanimously that they we're through killing
horses, and do o. wan to see another demonstration where horse outfits
are entered"
1.-THE demonstration was distinctly successful lin its exposition OF the
advantage of the tractor" says a representative Of the tractor lei THE
horses entered presented a pitful appearance in their effort to hold up
with tractors. Owners of the team were competing for cash prizes rang
ing from $500 downward, while the tractor exhibitors merely contested
for honors"
According to the official figures the cost of blowing, preparing and
seeding va 81 80 per acre for the tractors, and S240 per acre or horses.

CAPITAL AND EXPERIENCE.

OF course you have heard the story about the two fellows who formed
a partnership, n of them agreeing to furnish the experience, while the
other was tic furnish the capital? Well, IS time passed by, the fellow
the other fellow al in some way getting a firm hold o n the capital, so
when two years had passed by, things had been switched around and the
fellow who had experience o start with, had the capital by now, and the
other "a had the experience.

CURRENT BUSINESS CONDITIONS.

(From the Monthly Letter Issued by the National City Bank of New York
for September)
Much of the trouble which is being experienced over wag adjustments
now results from the reckless methods which prevailed in governmental
expenditures during the var Governmental expenditures dominated the
industrial situation, and they wer let in the main by the use of credit.
There vas no pretense in governmental finance If making ends meet but
private business cannot be carried on in that way.
Even 20 Of the present trouble results from the vague talk that was
common in the war, and is common now, to the effect that a radical change
ws taking place in industrial relations and that the earning class in
the future would have a larger share of the industrial product thar in
the past.
the position of the wage earning class would 1c i'm proved, but those who
utteri it seldom have any definite idea about how the wish Nay be realized.
They expect somebody else to realize it.. The fact is that tn distribution
OF current production takes place according to natural economic laws, and
those laws re the ami low as they were before the a In Russia an
attempt las been made to increase the distribution of wealth without re-
gard Ito economic law, or the facts of human nature, with the result that
industry has been paralyzed, production has come almost to a standstil
and the nation has been reduced to beggary.
Another error is in enormously exaggerating what might be done for
the massesb by seizing the incomes ofth rich. IN the frstp place the masses
now get sc large a share of all that is produced that if it was possible for
them o ret all the restit would make o great change in their condition;
and in the second place every attempt to sieze the rest by arbitrary meth
DDS causes it to disappear, as it hs. in Russia.
The fallacy is in thinking that the leaders and managers of industry
and business are not worth as much as they get, for every experiment in
getting along without them shows that they are worth great deal more
than they get. Everything oes to pieces without them.
This does not, of course. NEAR that the individuals wv holding po
stions of leadership and management are all Indispensable. If they should
AL pass away Others would be found to take their places, but there must
be leadership and recognition of ability and reward for initiative and SER
vice, or society goes to pieces. Even the labor organizations find it nee
esary tic ave leaders. and pay them salaries much in excess of the aver
age earning of the members.
Professor David Friday, of the University of Michigan, has made a
study of corporate incomes in the United States during the war periods
when profits ire supposed to have beer larger than before. He found
that 1917 was the year of largest profits, and that the combined earnings
or proceeds of the manufacturing, mining, railroad, and public utility in
duStrieS in hat wear were divided as follows
