VETS WISHES
DISCLOSED IN
LEGION CENSUS
Small Per Gent Ask for Cash Bonus
III Are Out OF Job--40
Have Not Replied


Only IL out OF the sc service men
in this community who have so far
responded TO the American Legion s
service census indicated their prefer
ence for cash bonus. Two OF these
are willing TO have their cash bonus
placed at the disposal of their dis
abled comrades.
This is a direct refutation OF the
claims OF opponents OF the adjusted
compensation measure. who have
stated that practically all ex-service
men would want cash, assert local le-
gion officials. The Legion has al
ways maintained that the percentage
wanting the cash feature would be
small and their contention seems to
have been splendidly sustained. not
only by the results so far attined in
the local canvass. but In the state
and nation as well. indications being
that only about 25 per cent OF all
ex-service men seek the cash fea-
ture.
Since the first of April. the Amer
lean Legion has been conducting a
census TO learn the condition and the
wishes OF each ex-seryice man In re-
gard to the bonus question and es-
pecially in regard to the present bill
now before the senate, which recent
ly passed the House.
Between four and five million ques
tionaires have been sent out TO the
men who served in the army and
navy during the last war. or the Sc
ex-service men in the vicinity OF FIJI
er Sc replies are now in the hands
of the local post OF the Legion. The
answers are quite enlightenine as to
many questions.
Only three out OF the Sc opposed
any form OF compensation. Eleven
of the Sc want the cash payment
plan. while 22 desire the paid up in
surance plan, which can be cashed
at its face value at the end OF twenty
years; want Farm and Home Aid
plan; 3 want vocational training:
the Arid Swamp land settlement plan.
Two of the men who selected the
cash bonus plan are willing to have
their bonus placed in fund for the
benefit OF their disabled comrades.
so after all only . wished TO benefit
by cash bonus payable now. For
Ly-two ex-service men had Jobs or

(BY EARL WOOLRIDGE)
Filler Rural High School

Quite frequently there has been
a good deal OF discussion over the
county i'm regard TO the prices receis-
ed for farm crops. Farmers in near
ly every community are complaining
that they do not receive enough for
their produce. Just recently farm
ers have joined in an organization
10 pool their wheat crops and force
the millers to pay higher price for
wheat. During the war. our govern
ment fixed the minimum price that
could be paid for wheat and other
cereal crops.

should be taken into consideration
and farmers should remember that
there are crops from which they can
usually make money and there are
other crops from which they can
never make any money. II all comes
back to the proposition that farming
is getting to be business and the
farmer must study his business.

Economic Factors

1t is usually all too true that farm
ers do not receive enough for their
crops. but conditions exist and many
farmers have gone broke waiting for
a fixing of crop prices. There are
other factors which determine whet-
her or not a crop should be grown
by the farmer. The merchant does
not handle an article unless he can
make profit. The farmer should
not grow a crop unless he can get
more for il than il cost him for pro-
duction. He should also, not refuse
TO grow a crop just because he
thinks the price should be higher
He may be able to make money even
at the price offered. A farmer should
know whether his crops are going

than he is apt to receive when they
are sold.

Study Local Conditions

Just recently the Farm Manage
ment class in agriculture. at the
Rural high school. compiled some
very interesting data. comparing the
yields. production costs, market
prices. acre income and interest on
investment OF various crops in this
county. In each case data was TAX
EN- from figures of crops grown on
the farm. 1t is interesting to find
that there is very little profit from
some OF our popular crops and a
great deal OF profit from some OF
the others. Average yields for the
community were used and the pro-
ductiOn costs per acre were comput-
ed. Using the average market
prices for the year, IL was not hard
for the boys to compute the income
per acre and the yield needed to
break even.

Grains do Not Pay

IL was found that neither oats,
wheat, corn or barley paid any
thing on a mans investment and
would have to be sold at from 81
to - cents per bushel and yield
from 80 bushels per acre for
wheat 10 30 bushels per acre for
barley TO break even.
A man must get so bu. of wheat per
acre and receive 81 cents per bush
Ell To even get back what he has put
into the crop. Nearly the same is
true for other cereals. Taking mp
some OF the other crops II was
found that in order for farmer to
come out even after his crops were
harvested. he can get S2.03 per bu-
shell for beans. at 80 bushels per ac-
re; $685. for alfalfa hay at 5ik
tons per acre; se.2s per ton for
sugar beets at 1914 tons per acre;
40 cents per sacks for potatoes at
zoe sacks per acre; S2.35 per ton
for corn silage at 81 Y tons per ac-
re and as cents per sack for onions
at 275 sacks per acre.
He can get those prices at these
yields and get back what he has
spent for raising the crop. In COM
