Frank Prince, the man VINO is IN
charge of John Heiling's farm near
Oriska, was a visitor in the city on
Wednesday accompanied by his fam
lily. Upon returning to his home on
Wednesday evening he put his car in
the shed, closed the door and went to
the house. The next morning ne
found the shed door open and his car
out in the yard. Several neighbors
called up during the day and stated
that someone had been trying to steal
their cars the night before but had
mot succeeded. One neighbor parked
his car near field where he was
working in the afternoon and went
some distance from the car to work.
Upon looking up he saw his car NOV
ing and started in pursuit. The par
ty driving the car jumped out and
left it standing by the road but took
his $500 leather vest with him. 1t
is the belief in that neighborhood tina.
some novice is attempting the theft
of the cars as the thefts are all at
tempted in the same way and the par
ty who tries to steal them seems to
have difficulty in starting them. One
car that was stolen was found shortly
after backed into a coulee near the
buildings and another car was found
run against tree. The people IN the
neighborhood are taking extra precau-
lions to protect their cars AMI seem
to have hopes that the thief will be
caught in the near future.

The Real Trouble
Even Worse is Europe's apparently
increasing inability to pay for such
of our surplus foodstuffs and fibres
as she needs. She has little gold to
spare and her paper money is worth
less. She cannot readily exchange
her raw materials or manufactures
for our wheat or other goods because
of our higher tariff.
Hence the decline with a dull thud
in exports of grain and other farm
products from the United States dur
ing recent months. Our shipments of
wheat and flour to foreign markets
since January l show a colossal de-
cline, in quantity and still more in
value. Corn exports continue larger
than year ago, but at best cut small
figure. Farm and Home repeats that
as the sale is curtailed of our surplus
abroad it backs up and depresses
prices here.
Statesmen Are Blind
Congress is blind to the situation.
The higher tt builds its prohibitory
tariff, the more our exports decline,
and the less able are foreigners to
pay for what they want to buy from
US, not to mention interest on the 10
or 20 billions they owed us previous
ly. .~.l~'l
Meanwhile, Europe continues her
outlay for war, government debts in
crease. Those people fail to do what
thew must do to be saved-quit mill
tarism, reduce expenses, balance bud
gets, lower taxes, live within their
means, barter until their moneys
value is restored. Except that our
n,onav i better than gold, we Ameri-
cans are equally at fault.
Grievous indeed that these errors
Of statesmen and politicians have to
be borne by our farmers in lower
prices for wheat, declares Farm and
Home. Wheat comes so near being
now the virtual standard of values,
that conditions which tend to depress
the price Of wheat below that of labor
and of other commodities constitute
an international scandal.
