public will or popular sentiment. The
advocates of direct nominations ana
elections for these high offices would
doubtless attempt to build up senti-
ment for their measures pointing out
the delinouences of the convention
system. OF course they can make a
good case. But if II wishes to be
unbiased and unprejudiced on this
question. it will do no harm to refer
them to speeches made by Secretary
of War Weeks and other leading Of
flcials of the Administration, who adj
vocated only a few months ago., the
return of caucuses and primaries for
all offices, from coroner up. Election
systems are much like the tax col

When President Harding told Con-
gress that "at the present moment
the American farmer is the chief suf-
ferer from the cruel readjustments
which follow wars mutations he
produced in epigramatic truth. 1t will
be remembered that the farm bloc"
in Congress made it plain the early
part Of the year that they regarded
the farmer as the chief sufferer from
present-day conditions. Upon hat vi
tai point they appear tobe in entire
agreement with the White House. But
when it comes to methods for reach
cruel readjustments," there is a gulf
between these independent" elements
in official life and the Administration.
Whether the strenuous attempts that
are being made to bridge these differ
ences Will be successful constitutes

Grandfather Porky.
HE is certainly a pig, and grand
father of all of us said the other

But Porky paid no more attention
to them. He walked off by himself
and as he found some pig weed he SAID

Urges Farmers to Watch

st. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 27.-FArmers
throughout the state, especially those
in the corn belt, are urged by N. J.
Folmberg, state commissioner Of. az
r%iculture, to report at once to- state
agriculture officials any signs of the
invasion of the European corn borer,

great losses to corr growers Of east

Although no evidences of this
dreaded parasite have been discovered
In the state MI. Holmberg is anxious
that every precaution be taken to pre-
clude al invasion from eastern states.
The worm was imported to the
eastern states from Europe in hemp
shipped to these shores, and rapidly
made its way through the AT. antic
coast states, leaving nothing but large
devastated areas or corn acreage in
its wake. ~ {f, .-a
Agricultural officials Of these in
tested states are making a joint on

It appears that despite the co-opera-

spreading its work of destruction, Mr..
Holmberg said. It has reached as far
west at the eastern section of Ohio,
and If proper methods are applied it
Is hoped the parasite will be EXTERN

|Favors Cooperative
Marketing Of Spuds
By Manitoba Growers

Winnipeg, Man., Nov. 27.-Co-oper-
alive marketing Of potatoes is the only
way in which Manitoba farmers may
obtain good prices for their product
and at the same time enable consum-
ers to buy at a price 10 greater than
they would pay to Independent grow
ers.
That is the opinion of T. w. Cald-
we'll Of Florenceville. N. B.
= However, he said, he could not ad-
wise farmers to devote their energies
to this phase Of Production at the
present time. because the tariff on
produce going into the United States
prevents them from entering that
market, and they can not pay the rail
freight and compete. with seaboard
growers in the tradelto Cuba and the
West Indies. Potatoes are a perish
able crop, quite different from wheat,
oats and hay, for they must be mar
keted by the following May. he added,
while grain could be held for better
prices.
Not only in Canada, but in the Unit
ed States as well, he said, more pota-
toes have been grown in the last few
years than can be absorbed by the
market, consequently the growers have
not been able to realize prices that
pay. for the trouble. q
