WHICH SYSTEM is BETTER?

A discussion of the tariff question
free from the bitterness of partisan
politics would be beneficial to every
public official and individual voter in
this nation. Figures are dry reading
and few people even leaders in public
thought, will take the trouble to anal
we the wonderful stories that figures
tell
For years we have taken it for
granted that the talk about free
trade" Great Britain meant that that
nation had no tariff, while the term
protective tariff in the United States
meant that people were forced to pay
much higher prices for homemade
products which could be purchased
cheaper if shipped in here from fore
leign countries.
The facts are that in free trade"
England the per capita customs tax
is more than about the English tariff
is that it protects, except in a few
sporadic cases, not upon the necessi
ties of the poor-tea, tobacco, sugar
cocoa, ETC., which to the English work
men are as necessary as roast beef.
In other words there is no tariff to
protect the average English workman
or industry from ruinous competition
of other nations which can produce
manufactured articles more cheaply.
Instead of putting the tariff on foreign
pianos, motor cars and similar arti-
cles, to protect the home industries
and workmen making these products.
the English put the tariff on the neces
stiles of life which are shipped in but
which do not compete with locally
manufactured articles because such
products are not made in England.
The United States simply reyerses
this process and aims to protect indus
tries which must meet the strongest
foreign competition and the highest
tariffs are on articles which are not
necessities of life.
It should be appreciated that one
days work and one days wage will
pay the American workers individual
proportion of all the customs duties on
everything collected in the United
States, such customs duties under the
Fordney Tariff Bill being Ia cent pei
day per capita. Prior to that, for many
years, they averaged less than cent
per day per capita, a small price tc
pay for peaceful and profitable employ
ment
With these facts before us, why can
the tariff not be discussed as bust
ness rather than a political issue?

rangements with them by letter to ac-
commodate my shipments at any VINE.
This not only applies to live stock,
but to poultry, eggs and butter. The
latter articles are shipped by parcel
post the morning after the quotations
are received.
Range Of Markets Increased
II have wide range of markets to
select from, where formerly was
compelled to depend upon local
buyers quotations or those in the
newspaper. which were always two
days late.
"And the radio offers another adj
vantage: BY getting weather reports
and crop conditions from different
parts Of the country / can guess pref
ty accurately the trend of the market.

forehand about railroad strikes,
freight tie-ups, grain pools and many
other conditions which are likely to
affect the price of products grown
upon my farm. have a ledger filed
with information of this sort, and it
has become a habit with me to keep
it open for new tips whenever an

MOTORS ARE HUMMING
ON RED WING FARMS
Trial Electric Line in Minnesota
Is Operating-The Farm
Machinery Question.

These are busy days on the eighteen
farms lying five miles out from Red
Wing. Mimi, where rural electric
transmission line has been put into
operation to determine by a scientific
investigation the economic possibil-
tiles of electricity in agriculture.
Within the last few weeks great
deal of special apparatus for use on
these farms by electric energy has ar
rived and been put into service
The current on the trial line was
turned on for the first time on Christ
mas eve. At that time, however, the
installation and wiring on the differ
ent farms provided only for electric
tights. No farm equipment for cleo
trical operation was installed until
March Is.
Equipment Arriving Daily
During March and April, however.
almost every train brought some new
piece Of equipment into Red Wing,
and these utensils were installed as
rapidly as possible.
The Joint committee which is con
Quoting this experiment consists of
four farmers, two power company
representatives and the dean of the
Minnesota College of Agriculture The
chairman is James F. Reed, president
of the Minnesota Farm Bureau FEEDER
alton and vice president of the Amer
lean Farm Bureau Federation.
Manufacturers of electrical equip
ment and of farm machinery are
watching this enterprise with keen
eyes. Some of the biggest of these
companies are cooperating by furnish
ing equipment; others are taking note
of the progress and method of pro-
cedure. The General Electric Com
pany sent one Of its engineers all the
way from its headquarters at Sche7
nectady, N. Y, to Inspect the trial line
and observe all that is being done.

EDITORIAL

That the Nation needs good roads
is admitted by all.
That the Government should build
and maintain national highways, to
which the States can and will build
State trunk roads, they in turn to be
fed by county and township roads, is
agreed to by most students of the pro-
blem.
That they can not afford additional
road taxes is contended by many of
the farmers, already overburdened
with expense and with prices of farm
products below their proper levels.
What is not generally understood is
that any campaign of national high
way building must inevitably be paid
by the richest section of the country,
by the localities where the greatest
amount of tax money can be- raised.
1t is a fact that when national high
ways are built they will be paid for,

from national highways. They will
benefit, because the farmer will bene-

and they are happy that he will bene-

The public Is invited to spend SUM-

will be kept running throughout the
acreage in order to demonstrate how
easily and efficiently every foot of
the acreage can be irrigated. 1t is
announced that $50 in prizes will be
offered to the people who most nearly
estimate the total amount of water
pumped from. the big artesian well
between the hours of 2 p. M, and

person who visits the property, and
who turns in his estimate together
with his name and address. These
prizes will be given in the form of
substantial payments on City View

be SO credit on a City View Gar

irrigation and household uses has a
pumping capacity of 100000 gal
Ions every "a hours. This informa.
tion is expected to give visitors an
idea on which they may base their
estimates. According to N. H. White,

enormous volume Of water pumped

START NEW WILDCAT
Schott Oil Company Hopes to Open
Extension to Southeast.

Miranda City, Tex, April 12.-The
Schott Oil Company Is going back to
wildcatting to open new extension
southeast of the Schott Field. A
derrick was built Wednesday on
Block % of the Ojuelos Grant OF
Webb county, about a mile east of the
town of Los Ojuelos and southeast of
the Schott Field. about 2 IL miles.
This location is northeast of the pro-
ducing wells in the Wolcott Pool
about three-guarters of mile.
The tools are being set up and the
drilling will start during the first
of the week. There has hardly been
a month in the past three years that
the Schott Oil Company has not kept
one rig busy in wildcat territory and
they have done much to extend the
proven area and spent thousands OF
dollars in hunting new fields and ex-
tensions to proven fields.
This well on Block IS will be
watched closely and it is likely that
oil will be found in paying duanti-
ties. The natural trend Of the Schott
Field is to the southeast and wells
have been made more than a mile
rom proven territory in this direction.
1t is the opinion of many that the
south and north ends of production
along the escarpment will join up to
the Sehott Field in this southeast
extension.
