UN0CCUP|ED FIELD

Farmer Now Must Buy at Re-

sale Prices.
BY FREDERIC J. NASH.

Otto Kahn writes the committee Of
the American Business Mems Associa-
tion that today Is neither the loca-
tion of political or social issues, but
Of economic problems.
The farmer Is not. only our only
producer Of elemental wealth, but he
Is the largest buyer Of the products
Of others, so that when we strike the
economic problems he is the first man
we come across. With the develop
ment OF the factory system and the
corporation. agriculture has been
overlooked. The farmers individual
istic industry is not adapted to the
use Of the modern corporation. What
is suited to agriculture is co-opera-
owned by any one farmer shall be
limited by the amount Of produce he
contributes to be handled by the CO.
operative company. These extracts
are mainly taken from the admirable
article in the December issue of the
Forum by Senator Arthur Capper.
The present situation Of the farmer
is that he buys at retail and sells at
wholesale: that he pays cash, or at
the most gets credit for ninety days,
but only gets his money once a year.
How long. could you run a grocery
sixty days at the farthest the shut
ters would go up and the concern
close. With the farmer 1t Is differ
ent. He buys some things, but he
gets the rest out Of the land. and SO
ferred until the foreclosure of the
mortgage. As IL this were not
enough. there is something more and
equally as bad in the background.
The farmer is compelled to hire help
-I,~ -
good will may be, produce him one
quarter Of what the return for their
labor should be. At this spot the
drama of the economic situation Of
the United States Of America opens.
So. then. here is the solution Of the
as they affect the farmer. who is our
principal citizen. and anything that
affects him will run through the reEt
OF the community.
Ten years ago ! wrote about the

deliver for thirty miles the product
of the tree and garden to the Gus

except cattle, grain and cotton. at re-
tail to the consumer at a large re-
duction from what he pays now and
a much larger price for the farmer
than what he gets now. goods fresh
from the tree and garden. the hens
nest and the butter from the churn.
The condition that is necessary to
this is that the road shall consist of
a plain concrete road reinforced with
metal. properly drained throughout
its area. and have one of the strong
est known supports for a building
introduced now into the subgrade as
a support for the highway. This
road Is good for ten-ton trailerS Dill

MOTOR
HIGHWAY URGED
Plan Would Relieve Congest-
ed Traffic Conditions, Says
Motor Company. g

"An elevated automobile highway
to relieve the traffic congestion Of
growing automobile centers is ad-
vocated by Handley-Knight Motor
Company. Such an elevated highway
will take from the congested districts
in the rush hour large proportion
of the automobiles which attempt to
travel the main arteries. and thus
save time for the motoriSt, delay to
the pedestrian, and increase the eff
cheney of the street below for the
use Of surface cars and trucks.
THE citizens who must stand in
crowd while lines of automobiles
whizz by would not be confronted
with this difficulty if good share of
the passenger cars were overhead on
a side street. No ordinances would
be required to divert the passenger
cars to this highway. once drivers
learned they could proceed with
reasonable rate of speed and with
freedom from starting and stopping
annoyances.
Approaches by Easy Grades.
"A highway OF this nature. say
twenty five feet in width, would make
to travel abreast. 1t could be widened
somewhat at regular intervals to pro-
vide a stopping place for bus lines
to entrain and discharge passengers
without interfering with through
traffic. Approaches to the highway
would be at right angles to it, and at
regular intervals along its entire
length. The approaches would lead
by. easy grades dRwA TO the center
and level of the cross streets. Loops
could connect main elevated highways
and give convenient access to over
head parking areas.
IAN investigation Of the cost Of such
a highway by the Handley- Knight
Company shows that q structure of
reinforced concrete paved with a
noiseless and dust1ess surface, artis-
waited railways of Berlin, would cost
only 100000 a mile. 1t would add
materially to the beauty of any city,
and the Handley-Knight Company are
strong advocates of it,"

Maryland Force Example.
The Maryland state police force is a
splendid example Of what can be ac-

them from the time they are accepted
as recruits until the time they are put

Motorists Give CO-Operation.
Washington motorists, as a body,
are trying to cooperate with the po-
lice department in obedience to the
traffic regulations. The business man,
who Is law-abidinE and decent, is
not the type who speeds recklessly
through the street in defiance of all
rules. When he unintentionally dis
obeys some traffic regulation he is
entitled to be advised of that fact in
a businesslike manner. He will be
more careful in the future. The same
can be said of the woman driver. who
at times is inclined unintentionally to
violate some law. With kindly treat
ment she. too. will strive to promote
smooth-running traffic
The other class-reckless, wild. dis
regarding every law of the police and
every law Of ordinary courtesy-should
be dealt with in a summary manner.
They fail to incite sympathy from any
one.
That the policy of courtesy on the
part of the police department will
meet with the enthusiastic support OF
the main element which motors in
Washington is foregone conclusion

STAGE BLOWOUT
Of BIC BUS TIRE.
Experiment Proves Passen-
gers Are Not in Danger
When Such Incidents Occur.

The introduction of the large-SiZe
pneumatic tire for busses in England
was hedged in by many difficulties
because of a widespread belief that
the use of these tires was dangerous.
In case of a blowout. men argued.
the tremendous concussion of the
escaping air would thrust the car off
the roadway. The difference in height
between the two sides of the car after
one tire had been debated would be
50 great as to threaten to overturn
the vehicle, was another argument.
Pedestrians standing near might be
blown from their feet by the force Of
the escaping air from the tire, it was
said. The driver himself might even
be in danger in case of a blowout
while the car was travelling at rapid
speed.
This belief apparently was wide
spread. and many men seriously be-
lieved it.
To meet this situation, E r. Pres
ton, managing director of the Good
year Tyre & Rubber Company of
England. in cooperation with two of
the leading motor journals of the
country. devised unique test.
Stage Blowout as Test.
Wen stage a blowout of a tire
while the car is in motion" said
what happens
The next difficulty was to figure out
a way of blowing out a tire. The
sturdy walls of the big pneumatic
would be impenetrable to all but ex-
traordinary obstacles. Special mech
anism had to be devised and INSTALL
ed in order to make the test. A mar
row and rutty dirt road outside of
London was selected for the test. A
heavy plank was imbeded in the
roadway fitted up with big iron
SDike SharDened to q razor edge and
set SO that 1t would strike the tire
at an angle Just outside of the tread.
The mechanism was connected with a
lever set six feet away alongside of
the road. so that the operator could
force the spike up through the wood
en- plank just before the automobile
came along.
AS the other men were rather dubi-
Gus as to the effect when the tire did
blow out. one of the Goodyear en-
ployes volunteered to stand alongside
of the road and throw the switch"
when the car came along.
When all was set. a big bus, in
which rode the representatives Of the
two motor journals, came flying down
the road at 80 to 35 miles an hour
speed. As 1t came up to the imbed-
ded plank. the operator threw the

ACCESSORY KIT WILL AID
MOTORIST ON LONG TRIPS
Pays Big Dividend in Freedom
From Tire Trouble and in
Motoring Comfort.

Have you ever had a tire go flat
when you couldn't move for want OF
a tiny patch? A well stocked acces-
sorry kit pays big dividends in free
dom from tire trouble and in motor
ing comfort. Not only does it save
lost miles, but time and money as
well.
It's the old, old story Of a stitch in
time saving-a fiat tire and all the
trouble that may go with it. Business
men, doctors, motorists, one and all
ind tire accessories indispensable at
the most unexpected occasions, pre-
venting emergencies along the road
which take the pleasure and profit
out Of motoring.
At the worst, they insure the mo-
torist reaching the nearest garage.
Ordinarily they are splendid. though
temporary, reinforcements and enable
the tire to give the service demanded
until a permanent repair can be made.
But it's bad business trying to make
an accessory do the work Of a perma-
nent repair.
The big idea in accessories. say
Miller tiremen. is the putting up in
convenient form for repair use the
same high grade rubber and fabric
Of which new tires and tubes are
made. It's a new supply Of miles for
tires This is the reason that puts
tube patching kits. blowout patches,
tire flaps and cord patches into hum
dreds of local repair kits.

BY THEODORE p. MOVES.

Comments on the courtesy shown
motorists by policemen have been
especially frequent since the advent
the metropolitan police department.
Courtesy on the part of members OF
the police force is in keeping with
Maj. Sullivan's avowed intention OF
impressing on every man in the de-
partment that his individual actions
will either prejudice the public for
or against the department as a whole.
These favola BILE comments have come
to the writer not only from business
men of the city. but from the ranks
OF the feminine motorists. who. most
of all, are affected by the manner in
which they are addressed by police
men.
Two Methods of Arrest.
There are two ways to stop a
motOrist or arrest him. One is
courteous and the other discourteous.
The latter. unfortunately, has been
the method used by small number
of Washington policemen in the past.
A decent. law-abiding motorist
does not have to be shouted at nor
threatened to make him realize that
he has violated traffic regulation.
a courteous manner the same results
will be accomplished and a much bet
ter feeling promoted between the
public and the police department.
This change on the part of the in
dividual policeman is a most welcome
one and every motorist in the city
hopes that it is to be a permanent
policy.
1t is certainly just as easy for a
policeman to tell you that your rear
light is out in an ordinary voice as
ii is for him to walk up to you and
shout:
Say. don't you know anything
about the traffic regulations? How do
YOU get this way? Don't you know
that your rear light is out and that
YOU are violating traffic law in stand
ing on the streets or driving without
it,
No Willful Violation.
Nine chances out of ten the motorist
had no idea that his rear light was
out If he had known he would have
had it repaired Immediately.
If the motorist is told in a courteous
manner he will be especially careful
in the future about his rear light, but

Bridge Construction Co. the author
ity to complete the contract, until
he went into all the bids, and deter
mined that the Joliet men were the
best equipped for the job.
It was believed when the commit
tee of local men made the award, and
when the contract was given the Of
fetal O. X of W. L. Sackett, the su-
perintendent OF waterways, that there
would be no further difficulties in the
way of securing Colonel Millers o.
K. to the work The fact, however,
that the local men had awarded the
bid to the Joliet company, when two
firms offered slightly lower bids,
caused the gentlemen from the de-
partment of public works to hesitate
in signing the document, which had
to be fixed up before work could be
started.
Saturday the contract with the need
ed O. X was received here, so that
work can be started without further
delay. The yiaduCt bridge will be
completed in ninety days. it is be.
lieyed. However, after the bridge
is built, about sixty days additional
time will have to be allowed before

frightened at something which caused
madly north on State street towards
the Courtney street hill.
Several pedestrians who happened
to be on the street at that time saw
the horses and the buggy dash out of
She driveway at the Brown home and
and turn north. As it was dark they
could not see whether or not a driver
occupied the seat Of the buggy. The
horses upon reaching the intersection
Of Van Buren, and State streets
turned onto the west side Of the
street The FROM wheels Gf the buggy
crashed into the Ford which was park,

hurrying to the scene. Joseph Goctsch
was the first to arrive and he grab.

fallen down and was badly cut and
bruised about the legs.

on the concrete road about three
miles east of town. The car left the
road and turned upside down in a
ditch, pinning the boys underneath
it. Their screams brought aid from
neighboring houses. and the auto was
soon righted by the crowd of men
who gathered. Neither of the boys
or the ear was damaged and the
youths left without making their iden
