Prompt, faithful and speedy service is
the rule put in vogue by the Motor
Transportation Company.
Suppose the White Bus Line had
not secured the franchise for the busi-
ness it now enjoys, do you think the
railroad company would have made an
effort to install daily train between
points from Montrose to Grand Junct-
tion? And Paonia is included. II the
Company has accomplished no great
its support and patronage. Why did
not the railroads do this before the
Motor Transportation Company had
obtained its franchise? Consider that
the D. & R. G. W. Ry. Co. has made
special request that the draymen of
Moutrose and Delta shall make special
efforts to deliver Grand Junction
freight first. Why ? Because the
Motor Transportation Company is an
important competitor. Remove COM
petition and the railroad company has
its own way and it's own time in which
to make deliveries.
For these reasons the business men
should support the Motor Transports
tion Company, and by retaining COM
petition, the most faithful service can
be secured.
The Motor Transportation Company
did not desire nor does it intend to
work an injury to any other person.
Its sole aim was to cooperate. This
was denied. The denial is not due to
any fault of the company. 1t proposes
to furnish the desired service and to
this end seeks the support of all ship

Business IS Business

In business every man needs and
must demand service.
Service is the very life of business.
If, in the course of our business ex-
perience, we meet with delay and en-
counter obstacles that hold back, we
suffer loss which proves more or less
in consequence.
Do you desire service?
THE WHITE BUS LINE, operating
in the corporate name OF the Motor
Transportation Company, is prepared
and is ready and willing TO render all

ties Commission, public announce

Less Wheat Production only SoIu-
tion of Prices.

Announcement from Ames that the
wheat problem does not materially
concern the Iowa farmer because
wheat constitutes only 2 per cent OF
his production is nothing new. Mere
dfth said the same thing when Brook
hart slandered him by saying that he
sat in with Wall street to deflate the
farmer" The point is that while Iowa
does not have the same concern as to
the price OF wheat that the Dakotas
have the Iowa farmer does have A
price problem. Statisticans report his
dollar as having the purchasing power
that 66 cents had in 1918. This is due
more to the high price of things he
has tc buy than TO the market price of
corn and hogs, but nevertheless ii re.
mains that other commodities must
come down or corn and hogs go so
per cent above pre-war prices to put
the Iowa farmer on a 1913 basis.
After all has been said and done the
price of wheat is abnormaIly low be-
cause American farmers have pro
duced too much of it. Wheat is an
easy crop TO raise. It requires only
few days OF labor as compared to
corn and one man can crop more
acres OF wheat than he can OF corn.
The war stimulated the price OF wheat
until the war prices induced farmers
to overproduce in wheat. There is
no way under the sun TO adjust this
production to a demand that will yield
a fair price except to have wheat so
Improbable for time that farmers
who can do something else with their
land win get out of wheat.
There is nothing to be hoped from
an increased foreign demand. While
we are exporting less than we did dur.
ing the war we did actually in 1922 ex-
port four times as much wheat as we
did in 1913. We must expect to ex.
port less when Russia comes back.
The increase in our production of
wheat since 1918 has been equal to
half of the entire wheat crop of Rus
sia In 1918
Over-production OF wheat is our
trouble, not loss OF export or demand
nor rise in freight rates. Freight rates
have risen, to be sure, because rail.
road labor is getting more than double
Its pre-war wage, but IL earnings were
reduced to the extreme suggested by
the most radical It would not reduce
the freight on wheat more than one
cent bushel Somebody must get out
of wheat and a low price is the only
thing that will make the American
farmer grow less wheat. When 700
many hogs are raised the price goes
down and Iowa farmers have learned
that there is nothing TO do about it but
raise fewer hogs. The socialistic
dream that government can fix a
price on wheat or hogs above the mar.
ket prices is a delusion. II never has
been done and never can be done.
What would we do with our surplus
wheat or hogs when an artificial price
had kept us over-producing the mar
ket's d?-Marshalltown Qa.)

The Public Utilities Commission has
decided that the vigilant must pre-

not afford a safe guarantee of service.
1t is not our fault. il. by vigilance, we
have obtained an open field, and by
faithful service we hope to win un-
divided support OF the business men
in the several communities in which
we do business.

do. Our service will be all that can
