Long Credit Needed.

The legislation most necessary to
enable farmers TO secure fair prices
for their products is provision tor 2

crops as needed by the consuming
public, and not have TO dump them
at harvest time in order TO take up 90-
day notes, says 4. {. Davis. seere-
tary OF the National Farmers union.
in a statement received at Nebraska
Farmers Union headquarters. Criti-
cism OF the Norbeek-king bill, now
pending in congress. on the ground
that il does not make any provision
in regard to prices for farm products
is not well founded. says Mr.. Davis.
The bill is not price-hxing measure.

simply provides for system OF long
term credit TO farmers that will en-
able them to market their crops. III

Third Party, With Joseph
Jerome for Mayor Likely
LAX Rate Issue

SOUTH AMBOY, June 26.-With
the advent of the fall campaign OF
election, m the rumor, which,
indeed, Is founded to some extent
that a third party. with an economy
platform. will figure in the race
here.
About the time the tax rate for
this city which has become so wide
ly known and which has been mem
orized by the smallest child on the
street. there was talk of placing be-
FIRE the public a card of men not
afiliated with either the Republican
| or Democratic machines. h pro-
Ject, 1t was thought, died out and
was considered so. until over the
weekend came the that the
ticket this year will carry the names
of three to select from instead of
the usual two.
The name of Joseph Jerome,
leading business man of the Me-
c~hanicsville section. was prominent
ly named for mayor. In an inter-
view, Mr.. Jerome did not deny that
he was considering the possibility of
the new party using his name. When
questioned about a whole ticket,
Mr.. Jerome stated that as far as he
knew there would be another ticket
In evidence within a short time.
The idea Of another ticket in the
field Is common gossip this time, but
whether or not anything will come
OF the project remains to be seen.
WIZ the increase In the ia xrate
at this time. together with the added
10 per cent. increase in the valua-
lions, Is in a great way responsible
for that which is current at this
time. The real rub m in when
thinking persons realize that the
governing bodies of the past four
years should have added part of the
debt. The Board of Taxation de-
manded 1t be removed.
Right with the trend of affairs
came the demand of the tax board
to the assessors to make a general
increase OF 10 per cent. in property
valuations. Even at this late hour
1t remains a mystery to those who
have to suffer why the city allowed
such a thing when it has been
pointed out that other cities could
more afford to add a little to their
personal rights than could South
Amboy.
While the third party for a while
was looked upon as sort of a Joke,
many have altered their opinions to
some extent. Others have proclaim
ed themselves in favor of the plac-
ing of another party in the fight Of
n coming fall campaign.

Why are mems pockets?

Why are mems pockets?
A pocket wasn't always a pocket.
One time II was a slit In a seven
teenth century coat, from which
protruded the handle Of a sword.
For back In the old days, when
ouarrels we're settled with neatness
and dispatch, It wasn't might that
made right as much as 1t was speed.
The chap who first got a grip on
his sword was the one who came
out victorious in the fray.
But now-merely receptacles for
keys, coppers, good-luck pieces and
bottle openers grown rusty in
disuse.
And nov that we have settled the
question Of their origin, why is it
that a mar plays favorites with his
numerous pockets? In this one
he keeps his matches. In that his
smokes. His car key goes here ana
his door key there.
And why in the name OF Stein
Bloch is an inside vest pocket?
