SAMPSON PRICE DROP
BENEFITS FARMERS

To assist further in stabilizing in
dustry through these last weeks OF
readjustment, the Samson Tractor
Company announces further reduc-
ton in the price of their famous
Model M tractor to $445.00. This
makes the price, including platform
and tenders, belt pulley assembly anc
governor control $500.
This is by far the lowest price at
which the Samson tractor has ever
sold and is especially significant be-
cause it includes the many valuable
improvements made upon the tractor
since it first came upon the market
IN. ee years ago.
The reduction is considered a tenn
porary one only with the price subject
tC he raieed without notice.
In making this temporary reduc
ton the Company states further:
"As soon as farmers can enter the
market again with normal purchasing
mower based on fundamentally sound
profits from their business, all indus
try Cali settle down to normal stabil-
ity and happiness This condition to
he permanent and healthy, cannot be
brought about by merely increasing
or curtailing production, by initiating
market prices, or by the artificial
means of legislation. 1t can be
fastened however by any means
that lowers the cost of production
thereby increasing the farmers
profits.
characteristic of the American
farmers perseverance, he is going to
work this spring with courage UNI

ner cent of the operating expense of
his business is composed of man and
horse labor costs. He knows that
these costs are the most vulnerable
points for attack in his endeavors to
secure lower cost of production, and
that power farming is the weapon for
that attack. But in equipping them
selves now for increased profits, many
farmers must now buy equipment ir

implement dealers and implement

losses as the aftermath of war. But
neither the farmer, the dealer nor the

simply want action, and the situation
calls for earnest cooperation between
the three.
Regardless of its own tremendous
sacrifice by this reduction. the Sam
son Tractor Company brings the price
of It's tractor within easy reach of
farmers in spite of their past re-
verses. 1t enables farmers to secure

DAT HULLS FORM BODY
FOR NEW PAPER PULP

MADISON, visa job for the
1900 tons of oat bulls wasted daily IN
the United States is the latest discov-
cry at the Forest Products laboratory
here, where these humble bulls sue
cessfully have been made into paper
pulp and straw board. Experiments
on this new process were started
early in the year.
The American taste for oatmeal is
largely responsible tor the accumu-
lation of such quantities of waste
bulls. Some of them can be used as
roughage in prepared feeds, but the
great part has not been disposed OF
satisfactorily up until this time.
One advantage of these bulls as pa
per making material is that the ques-
ton of collection is taken care OF by
the miller. Some of the large mills
produce as many as 200 tons OF oat
bulls in a single day, the greater part
OF which require but little sitting to
make them ready for use.
The process used in converting the
bulls into paper pulp is practically
the same as that used for straw. The
bulls are treated with lime, washed
and beaten, and then run over the
combination cylinder-fOur drlnler
paper machine. The cost OF using
bulls is no greater than that entailed
by the use of straw, and the resulting
product is equally good.
A mixture of oat bulls and cheap
cotton fiber has been found to make
a pulp OF excellent color, good enough
to be finished as a book magazine or
writing paper. The possible saving
in the manufacture of this grade OF
paper is about $40 ton.

GOD


"a fire mist and a planet,
A crystal and a cell;
A jelly-fsh and a saurian,
And caves where the cave-men
dwell;
Then a sense of law and beauty,
And a face turned from the clod;
Some call it Evolution,
And other call it God.
"a haze on the far horizon,
The infinite, tender sky;
The ripe, rich tints of the cOrnfields,
And the wild geese sailing high;
And all over uplands and meadows
The charm of the golden rod
Some of us call it Autumn,
And others call it God.
Like the tide on a crescent sea-beach,
When the moon is new and thin,
Into our hearts high yearnings
Come yelling and surging in
Come from the mystic ocean
Whose rim no foot has trod-
Some of us call it Longing,
And other call it God
"a picket frozen on duty,
A mother starved for her brood,
Socrates bringing the hemlock,
And Jesus on the rood;
The millions who, humble and name
less,
The straight, hard pathway trod-
Some call it Conservation,
And other call it God"

IN AN OLD STREET

The twilight gathers here like brood
ing thought,
Haunting each Swallowed dooryarl
and it's door,
With gone, forgotten beauty that was
wrought
OF hands and hearts that come this
way no more.
Here an intenser quiet stills the air
With old remembering of what is
not;
aOf silver slippers gone from every
stair,
And silver laughter long and long
forgot.
Deeper and deeper where this dusk IS
drifted,
Gathers a sense of waiting thru the
night,
About old doors whose latch is new
er lifted,
And dusty windows vacant OF /
light
Deeper and deeper, till the gray turns
blue,
And one by one the patient stars
peer thru.

MATERIALISM VS.. CLASSICISM

In a lecture on modern tendencies
a writer says in part.
But the materialistic atmosphere o.
the home has invaded the college, and
its effect is to turn men from the min
istry to other professions. Says DR..
Lyman, Fifty years ago the atmOS-
Ihere Of our universities was cultur
al. Boys read uhilosophy-and, if We
can trust the commanding men in our
pulpits who were once these boys,
they discussed it. They read Greek
and Latin and were stepped in great
thought All this created an atmOS-
phere of thOughtfulness and left boys
interested in problems of human lie
and destiny. Today philosophy, Greek,
Latin, culture-all that is almost gone
The popular courses are economics,
chemistry, modern languages. Utili-
W is being more and more emphaSiz-
ed. Preparation to earn living rath-
er than preparation for life seems to
be the principle of education more ami
more. Contrast the Yale of Horace
Bushnell's days and the life of stu
dents, their interests, their cOnversa-
IiOns, as pictured in Munger's Life OF
Bushnell" with the undergraduate life
and talk of today. The immense pre-
pOnderance of athletic and sporting
interests in our modern college also
creates different atmosphere in Our
universities from that atmosphere
that alone creates ministers. See the
Oxford of 1888. The sole interest OF
the university students was philosc-
ply, religion, poetry. The boys talk
ed of these things in Commons. Then
Oxford gave us Newman, Pusey, Keble,
Hurrell, Froude-I know not how
many more-all at once. The modern
boating, cricketing Oxford is turning
gc,ut good fellows. but the Angelica
pulpit is disturbed over the lack OF
candidates for the ministry"
Who can deny Dr. Lynch's analysis
of the situation? Sport and athletics,
the movies, the worship of what IS
Tulgarly called success, the emphasi,
TN the practical rather than on the
cultural, the whole sweep and trend OF
wOrldliness-this and not Darwinism,
IS what threatens the church. Mr..
Bryan, good man that he is, will b.
gratefully remembered as great re-
former in politics and advocate OF
world peace long after his quiXOtic
anti Darwinian crusade has been for

CORN BURNING HAS KICKBACK

Farmers throughout Iowa who re
fused to burn their corn during the
big price slump of the last two months
are now profiting by holding it, ac
cOrding to Col. Leon w. AinswOrth,
one of the leaders who conducted a
wide campaign in December and jan
nary to stop the corn burning craze.
The committee of which Ainsworth
is the head issued a statement show
ing that:
IOwa's corn on hand is now worth
S27 100000 more than it was on De-
cen, Der first.
Iowa's wheat on hand is now worth
$1,500,00 more than it was on De-
cember first.
Iowa's oats on hand is now worth
$G,000,000 more than it was on De-
cCmber first
Coal, in the meantime, has gone
down in price while prices on corn
and other foodstuffs have risen, Aims
worth points out.
Sixty per cent Of the states corn
crop of 1927 is still on the farms, he
says, and is worth 81 cents a bushel
today as against 40 cents two months
ago. There are 100000 bushels CT
wheat now on Iowa farms with rise
OF 80 cents a bushel in the last two
months. Oats have gone up 10 cents
a bushel during the same period and
there are still 60,000,000 bushels on
farms in Iowa
IF a map of the world were drawn
10 scale the size of a newspaper page
a dime would cover the surplus co =
producing territory of the Whole
world" Ainsworth declared today. in
issuing his statement. This little
area is restricted mainly to Iowa and
few surrounding states. The man
who did not burn his corn is going
to profit by it in the end"

RUMOR Is UNJUST

"a story has been going the rounds that the
damp plank in Wisconsin was not adopted until
after all the women delegates had gone home to
fix dinner" runs an article in the New York Times
relative to Mrs Ben Hooper, Wisconsin democ-
racy's choice for senator The Times does the
Democrats of Wisconsin injustice in even Civ
ing space to such rumor, unreconciled as it is to
facts. If the correspondent of The Times had
been present to learn what happened, he could
have explained that the plank in the Democratic
platform that is termed damp" was drawn by
a dry and that it is not wet nor dry plank but
that it is simply plain avowal of the old, stead
fast Democratic belief that the people shall at all
times be permitted to express their opinions
through the ballot. Few women at the Demo-
cratic state convention had "put on their hats"
and were dgeting in their seats at the time of it's
adoption. The Times, it seems to us, is editorial
izng in too serious and ironical manner for it's
news columns.
