He Knows His Folks.

Here are some random observations
OF q man who has visited and studied
q good many small communities If
you read your local paper you will
not miss much that is happening
around home. There is no use saying
that you wish your town had a paper
like one in the other town, for the
other fellow there is saying the same
thing. The man who reads his local
paper thoroughly Is usually pretty
good citizen and has 1t all over the
fellow who does not. Local papers,
when all is said and done, do more to
uphold the institutions of this state
and country than any other known
contributing force in the worlds work.

A FINE OLD HOME PAPER


(Tune-A Fine Old English Gentleman.)
These magazines with gravures and
all these works of art,
Are very well for city folks who live
by dint of mart;
But give me first and foremost, / hold
it Is the prime
That fine old home town paper-one
of the good old time.
The printin' isn't perfect, the inks
not uniform,
The type is set by hand perhaps
considerably overworn,
The dear -eld press-I know it we'll
it's covered DER with CRIME
But it prints that old home paper
one Of the gold old time.
1 look for it each week as regularly
it comes,
And when the postman brings it in, I
drop all other chums,
/ drink 1t in, from start to fin, ridicu-
lous and sublime,
That fine old home town paper, one
of the good old time.
Smiths cat may have some kittens;
Jones is putting in new pumps,
My girl chum has got married and the
kids have got the humps.
Jack Wiltsey's built lean-to, john

Obi l love the old home paper, boys,
one of the good old time.

Cen you tell me the date the Bap-
fist church burned-I mean, of course,
the famous fire that all the old inhab-
itants talk about?"
The librarian looked up from her
work. mo, / can't tell you the ex-
act date, but I think can find it for
you quickly, for we have the files of
the local paper since it was started.
My impression is that the fire-the big
fire, as they call twas about 1873,
and it won't be very long job to look
it up
She went to the stacks In the rear
of the library, pulled out a dusty
bound volume marked Herald, 1878"
and spread it open on the table. "Ah,
here it Is" she said, after a minute
spent in turning over the yellow leaves.
The person who had inquired for
the date, a member of the womans
club Of the town, sat down and read
the article "This gives me exactly
the information wanted" she said.
ST thought it would" said the libra
rian. II fear most people do not ap-
preciate how valuable is the local
newspaper from the viewpoint Of To-
cal history. In fact, it seems to me
that it is about our only source. Only
when an event gets into print is it
officially recorded and filed for refer
ence. Flimsy as it is, the printed
word Of today is the counterpart of
the ancient stone inscriptions that give
us our records of a long-ago yesterday.
1 consider the bound volumes of our
local papers perhaps the most valu-
able possession of this library"
There's at least one librarian who
is giving Subscribe for Your Home

served November 7-12, the most hearty
backing she can give.

Total Ma Per Capita Per Capita
Distribution of Income.

The report says that only one out
of a hundred q per cent) income re-
ceivers in the United States in 1918
had incomes Of $4,000 or more, and
that this one per cent had Il per cent
of the national income. Five per cent.
representing incomes above $1,000,
had 26 per cent of the total. Ten per
cent, including income above $1,000,
had nearly 35 per cent of the total |;
the most prosperous 20 per cent, in
Guiding income above 81, $50, had about
At per cent. Eighty per cent of the
income receivers had incomes below
$1,750, receiving about SO per cent of
the total income.
Shares of Labor and Capital.
In most of the years since 1912, the
bureau finds that in the principal or
gained industries, wages and salaries
were about 20 per cent of the total in
come; while capital (including man
agement) received about 80 per cent,
out of which were paid rent, interest
and profits; but these proportions va
ried materially with relative prosper
ity and depression. In 1916, for ex-
ample, the share Of capital increased
to about 80 per cent, with So per cent
to labor, while in 1919 capitals share
fell to about % per cent, while labor
got about 78. OF the total payments
to employees In the highly organized
industries, about 90 per cent goes to
the manual workers and clerical StaffS.
while per cent goes to officials.
Share of the Farmer.
The farmers, who during the past
decade have made up about 10 per
cent of the total of gainfully employed,
had from II to 13 per cent of the ma
tional income in the years between
1910 and 1916 inclusive; since 1917
they have been receiving Is to II per

OLD HOME TOWN PAPER
TO HAVE A WEEK
Nation Wide Campaign Launched for
November 7-12-Place in Commu-
nifty Life Emphasized.

November 7-12 has been set as Sub
scribe for Your Home Town Paper
Week." and this newspaper, together
with the thousands of country news
papers the United States Over-there
are not far from $4,000 of them, week
lies and small dailies-is to partici-
pate.
The purpose Of the campaign is not
only to induce residents of the small
communities and the home town folks
who are far from their native heath
to subscribe for the home paper, but
also to emphasize the important place
the home newspaper plays in the life
of its community.
This campaign has the hearty sup
port and cooperation not only of the
newspapers but thousands of minis
tiers and school principals, and many
state agricultural colleges and farm
ard home bureau organizations.
Some persons, 1t is pointed out, have
been inclined to belittle the place and
function OF the country newspaper.
They have not realized that in reality
the home paper is community insti-
tuition and that it enables the other
institutions, such as the church and
the school and all the rest to function
better and more effectively. That 1t is
a necessity if the town is to advance.
During the time between now and
"Home Town Paper Week. Novem-
Der 7-12, this newspaper in its col
umns viii have much TO say about the
Home Town Paper-not this newspa-
per in particular, but the home town
paper the nation over, the home town
newspaper as real and distinctive
factor In American life.

HOW PURCHASING
POWER OF DOLLAR
HAS FALLEN OFF
Addition to National and Indi-
viduaI Incomes of Little Real
Benefit.
eTATEMENT BY BUREAU OF
ECONOMIC RESEARCH.
Most of Amount Due to Rise In Prices
Actual Total of Commodities Pro-
duced Increased Little, If at All, and
Few Were Benefited.

New York, Oct. 27.-The total ma
tional income of the United States in
1913 was 81 billion dollars, as COM
pared with 34.4 billions in 1913; but
this increase in dollars did not repre-
sent like increase in production. Most
OF 1T was due to the rise in prices for
the dollar of 1918 and 1919 was a much
The actual total of commodities pro-
duced increased very little, if at all,
and large part of those which were
produced were war materials, not of
a kind really benefiting consumers.
Consequently, individual incomes,
estimated on a per capita basis, rising
from $40 in 1910 and 1854 in 1913,
to 1886 in 1918, represent more dollars
but little or no real increase, because
the 1886 of 1918 is equivalent to only
1872 in terms of the purchasing power
Of 1913.
These are the most important find
ingS of the National Bureau of Eco
nomic Research, made public today
In advance of the formal publication
of the results of years study OF
Income in the United States" This
study, the most exhaustive ever made
of the income question in this country,
has been conducted by Wesley Clair
Mitchell, Willford l. King, Frederick
r. Macaulay and Oswald w. Knauth,
under the auspices and direction of a
board of nineteen directors, including
men prominent in many fields of bust
ness, education, labor, agriculture, eco
nomics and practical statistics, and
representing many divergent points of
view.

ings, including the equivalent value
of per capita income in terms of the

Random Observations.

This isn't country publisher talk
ing. but the editor Of farm paper :
The metropolitan daily will bring to
ones doorstep the news of the world
seen through the spectacles of the city
editor. but it is the editor who lives
in the heart of the community who is
able to reflect the sentiment OF the
local group. He alone IS the true
interpreter Of events as they affect
the small town and the farming com
munity that Immediately surrounds the
town.

Strong for Home Paper


mo, don't take the local paper

other as they were waiting at the
creamery to unload their milk.
They had just been looking at a

swell, that's one way to look at it"
said the other farmer, "but I've always
felt that local newspaper was a
pretty valuable asset to any comnu-
nifty, and If everybody took the atti-
tude you do, there couldn't be any To-
cal newspaper. OF course we could
not get along without our daily papers,

can't, and the publishers haven't any

.T have always felt that got value
received for every dollar I've paid out
In subscriptions to the local paper, and
I don't have an idea that running a
country newspaper is any more of a
wealth-producing proposition than run
ming a farm. So long as I've got two
dollars I intend that the rural mail
carrier is going to tuck copy OF the
home paper in my box every week."
That farmer knows that the COM
munity newspaper Is a necessity In
his home; that without 1t his home
would be incomplete and his part In
