THE SKYROCKETING PRICES

If something does o happen pretty quick to change the trend of
price of agricultural products the Democratic party will have to change
ITS platform so as to make a appeal to the ultimate consumer rather
the poor downtrodde farmer. Within the pas six weeks prices
of farm products in the United States have advanced % al aggregate
nj lore than two billion dollars, m this splendid increase is coming
iust at a time when the farmer is marketing his crops. If he is willing
In sell h an get the money. This is affecting every line of business
conditions arr favorable to splendid crops and the country is getting
firmly OF its feet
In the period mentioned cotton valuations have jumped $4,000 900;
wheat s26OOOO,OOO; corn $3.50 100000; oats $2S5,OOO 900; rice
shortage nav been coming to America with large orders. The
Russian wheat crop is said to be a failure and the Canadian crop is very
short May delivery wheat has sold considerably above s1.4O. Hogs
have advanced to a $40 level.
All OF which means that Wyoming farmers ire feeling rather chesty
do not care to be put in the pauper class.

Out where the moo shines bright

Where it's beams are a golden ray,
Where the birds sing the sweetest,
That's out Pahaska way.
Out by the Garden of the Gods
Where the Holy City lay,
There's where the flowers smell

That's out Pahaska way.
Out where you'll grow better,
Get a thrill for every day,
Where you'll want to shout out
Glory,
That's out Pahaska way.
Out among the whispering pines
Where the Indians used to stay,
There Bill Cody won his glory,
That's out Pahaska way.
Out along the Shoshone
Where the silvery waters play
Where the trout abound by willows,
That's out Pahaska way.
Out where the folks are bigger,
Hold out their hands and say
What "a l do for you brother?"
That's out Pahaska way.
Out where you'll forget your sor-

Where the sun melts gloom away.
There you'll want to stay forever,

Tough on Bankers

Five hours in Jail for two Wyom-

all they did was to make false en-
tries on some of their books and
turn in false reports to the comp
troller of currency while they were
officers of the First National Bank
of Douglas. OF course Judge Ken
nedy fined them $500, which it is
possible may be RENTED to them by
the court, but to give the bankers
five hours in jail while some I'M
sophisticated boob may write a bum
check for $1.99 and the court will
send him down to Rawlins for two
years. Tough On bankers in Wy

Nantillois in the Argonne sector. Re
turning. he resolved to rc-cnter the
school that he had left thirteen years
before to enter business life. only to
face many handicaps.

previous work. Scholastic require

was in his junior year when he had
left the school. he was given credit
but for work covering year and II
half
Then another handicap presented
itself. He had not yet learned to read
and write by the Braille system, md
was forced to have this knowledge Ia
continue his studies. lie was not
dauntcd. however, and his applications
have Just won him the most coveted
honor of the institution.
Schoble Is nm active member OF the
American Legion. and has spoken be-
fore many Pennsylvania posts OF the
Legion. Without any bitterness agains,
