another one.
The Ibcrian has just arranged for
a series of articles by William Allen

where, however, existence furnishes
such varied forms of experience that

Mr.. White, Kansas newspaper man
and eminent author, is writing some
of the best distinctivcly American
stuff that is appearing in this
country to-day, and this present
series is considered by critics worthy
TO be ranked within his best efforts.
The first story is contained IN
this issue of The Iberian, and an
other will appear each week for some
time to come. Some Of the incidents
described by Mr.. White probably will
remind readers Of The Iberian of
similar situations in their livcs-per-

PROBLEM BEFORE
UNCLE SAM.
Government Has Serious Work
Ahead of II To Get Needed Funds.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-Uncle Sam
must solve a difficult financial prob
lem in the near future.
BY the end Of this fiscal year he
must raise more than $2.225,O0O, 900
to meet deficit in the running ex-
pcnses and accruing obligations, ac-
cording to the estimate prepared by
the budget bureau. This sum must
be raised in addition to ordinary
governmental receipts.
More than 81 100000 of the
total must be secured by the end of
this calendar year. The biggest single
item is 100000, 900 which represents
victory bonds called for redemption
on December 18th.
Next in size is the sum of $515,-
100000 war savings certificates ma
turing January l. To this must be
added $125,000 in interest on these
stamp certificates.
Other interest obligations total
1926 100000. Rounding out these
figures is the prospective net deficit
of $425, 100000 in running expenses.

RIFLE PLANNED by MARINES
AIDED MARKSMEN AT MILAN.

The victory of the u. S. Rifle
Team, which succeeded in defeating
teams from other nations competing
In the international Rifle Matches
recently concluded Mt Milan, Italy, u
largely attributed to the model OF
rife used by the American rflemen
in the matches.
The rife is of the regulation
Springfield type, to which certain
improvements were added by the T..
s. Marines. The new model has m
extra heavy special barrel ana .
new type Of palm rest, especially
designed to support the weight OF
the rifle and aid the marksman IN
retaining n steady hold. It has nm
adjustable sling swivel, front at
tachment in which various sights
may be fitted, and shoulder-hook
which holds the butt of the rife
close to the shoulder. The latter in
novation was adapted from the old
Scheutzen rifle.
Ten rifles were fitted with the new
devices by the u. S. Marines at their
workshop on South Broad Street,
in Philadelphia, and forwarded to
Quantico. Va, where try-outs for the
Milan Matches were conducted. The
new models met with instant favor,
and were taken to Milan by the Am
erican rincmen. II is believed the
new model aided greatly in securing
the final victory, and especially in
helping to defeat the Swiss ritlemen
who for long time were invinciblc
in international matches.

John Horne Tooke.

A renegade priest, who openly
scoffed at his calling and who led a
life, to say the least, which could not
be called respectable, would not be
we'll esteemed as a private citizen. not
withstanding his learning and the IN
genuity of his own generally admired
work, "The Diversions Of Purley.'
John Horne Tooke was born on June
25. 1875, and it was not so many years
after that he was looked upon as one
OF the political pests of the era. 1t IS
rather startling that all the pubic
questions on which his opinions were
deemed mischievous have since been
settled in his favor.
Tooke was fined and imprisoned for
his opposition to England's war with
her colonies. Twenty-three years after
his death reforms in the house OF COM
mons which he strongly advocated
were brought about. He was the trsr
prominent Englishman to proclaim the
advantages Of free trade, and his
biography may well be kept in view as
q monument to the futility Of intoler-
ence.-Chicago journal.

REAL HUMORlST OF AMERICA
In One Writer'S Opinion, the Country
Editor Is Entitled to Honor
of the Title.

The funniest things which are writ
ten and printed in this country are
not written by Irwin Cobb or George
Ade or Ring Lardner. They are not
written by the professional humorlSt
of the great newspapers.
They are written by the so-calleG
country editors and notably by So
called country editors Of Ohio and
Kansas. We hardly think anyone
with a real sense of humor who reads
large numbers Of newspapers ana
magazines and modern books will dis
pute this assertion.
Humor is merely the ability to see
and react understandingly to the
mirth-provoking side of human nature
which is not the least ample of its
sides. A humorous paragraph may be
grossly exaggerated in its interpreta'
ton OF human nature, but human ma
ture must be somewhere down near
the bottom of it or it is failure.
This explains why humor is so much
more amusing, SO much more satisfy
ing than wit. Wit needs no human
nature as its foundation, il may be
simply lightning-like play on mere
words, sufficient 10 cause a smile, a
laugh perhaps, but none Of the. solid
comfort derived by the discerning from
true humor.-Ohio State Journal.

Rock Has Great History.

A report on the Dome Of the ROCK
Of Jerusalem is shortly to be puD-
lished and will be of great interest to
the Mohammedan world. 1t may not
be generally known that this place is
the third in sanctity of all the sane
tuaries Of Islam, and indeed for a
short period it actually formed the
Kibla toward which all Moslems
prostrated themselves in prayer.
Among the more important religious
associations of this rock we may men
tion that it was here that David and
Solomon were called to repentance,
and on account Of vision David
chose this site for his temple. From
this same spot Mohammed ascended
10 the Seventh Heaven after his night
tourney from Mecca, and lastly it is
to be the scene OF the Great Judg-
ment. The historical associations are
not less striking, and such famous
names as Omar, Aldelmalek, Saiadin
and Suleiman are all connected with
the rock.-Zanzibar Gazette.

CUT COTTON COST
BY Making FOOD
Southern Farm Prosperity Absolutely
Dependent on Cutting Cash Crop
Production Cost Through Food
Making And Saving.

Atlanta, Georgia.-(Spec:aD. The
cotton farmer got his bumps
again in 1921 between boil weevil. un-
favorable seasons, food and grain buy
ing on credit. combined with price
on cotton insufficient to pay him out.
Same old story, the same thing that
has happened three or four times in
the last dozen years. said H. G.
Hastings. President Of the Georgia
Association, an organization for state
wide development.
1--WE might just as we'll face the
fact that with the world wide finan-
cial and political mix-up in Europe
following the world war, there is no
possible chance for using normal
quantities of cotton at profitable prices
to us if we continue to grow cotton
on the high cost basis that We have
been doing.
Cotton is the one best money crop
for the South, and probably always
will be. The time Of war prices is
over and the problem from now on Is
to lower cost of production and at the
same time afford the cotton grower a
fair profit.
Cost Of making cotton is primarily
the cost OF food, grain and forage
for the farmer, his family, his labor
ers or tenants, and his work stock.
Cutting food, grain and forage costs
by home production will reduce cot
ton costs from one-third to one-half.
plant for an abundance Of food,
grain and forage. thus cutting down
store bills, and the lower prices for
cotton will not hurt so much. We can
not, with European countries so thor
oughly disorganiZed, reasonably expect
high prices for cotton for several years
and we must make cotton at lower
cost. or else quit cotton growing.
Most of US cannot quit cotton,
hence the absolute necessity OF food,
grain and forage planting in 1922 -

pound of food and grain needed to see
