Horse Sense

Buying away from home is a
habit which does nobody any
good but the mail order house.
Buying at home is a habit which
does a world of good to the buy
er, the merchant and the home
town.
There are men and women in
Newark who go to larger cities
to buy all or part of their wants.
They argue that they can save
money and obtain better salts
faction, but brought down to
the actual facts they usually ad-
nit that buying-out-of-town is
only a habit. Why cultivate a
bad habit when it is just as easy
to acquire a good one and why
continue a bad habit when there
is a good habit which can easily
be substituted?
Big business buys it's raw ma
terials from the nearest source
of supply. Every individual is a
business in himself or herself.
Thrifty buyers figure in the
time, labor, transportation and
market costs and buy accord
ingly.

FARMERS PUNISH
ENEMIES

The connection between falling
farm prices and victories such as that
of Brookhart's in Iowa is close.
AS agriculture becomes more and
more unprofitable, the Western farm
ers hit out at every head in sight. In
Iowa, the head to be hit was that of
Senator Cummins, once progressive
but now conservative, who was sus-
pected of not being strong for farm
relief measures such as the tillers of
the soil are now demanding.
Prices paid to producers of agri-
cultural products in March dropped
to the lowest point they have touch
ed in six months, according to De-
partment of Agriculture statistics.
The level Of farm prices is lower
than the level of all commodities.
Hence the revolt of the farmers,
which Matthew Woll describes as not
merely revolt but a political revo-
luton.
The farmers are out to punish
those they believe to be their enemies
and to reward those they look on as
their friends. Everything indicates
that they have just made a beginning
of their campaign and that from the
standpoint of the stand-patters, the
"worst is yet to come" ."-Terre Haute
Advocate.

as a martyr and living sacrifice
to lead the hosts to victory.
Yes, it looks as if this gentle
man, like Moses of old, had
heard a powerful voice from the
bushes or some other seaport,
giving him orders which he dare
not disobey, and so like the lick
ed fighting cock, he ducked his
tail feathers and lit out.
The question has arisen in the
minds of many of the more in
telligent members of organized
labor as to whether their sup
port and fealty is due and
should rightfully be accorded to
the Labor Unions of their re-
spective crafts which have made
it possible for them to ask and
receive the living wages which
they are now enjoying, or should
be given to the so-called secret
but really political organization
which demands implicit obed-
ience in all things, not only as
regards their present actions but
would dictate their course in
seeking an admission through
the pearly gates of the world to
come,

Right You Are!

Much truth is contained in
the following little statement
which is taken from Forbes
Magazine. It's advice is not only
applicable to Newark, but almost
to every town in the country:
Expect poor results and usu-
ally you'll get them. Many con-
Germs and many individuals re-
sign themselves to accomplish
ing little during the summer.
They slacken effort. They let
their minds dwell on difficulties
instead of gearing up their de-
termination to overcome diff
culties and achieve big results.
A good time to drive hard for
business, and especially for new
business, is when competitors
are half-asleep. We don't know
what we can accomplish until we
try, and try with all our might.
Instead of lazily concluding that
it is not worthwhile to hit the
line hard during the summer
months, resolve to go after or
ders hammer and tongs. Adopt
this as your motto: eff you try,
you may; if you don't, you
won't"
Briefly it says "Advertise
what you have to sell. Don't
hide your light under a bushel."

Square on the Head

President of Council Frank
Bailey certainly said a mouthful
when he expressed his views on
the action taken by council in
refusing the use of the streets
and court house park to the
Newark Federation of Labor for
the usual annual celebration. 1t
was, briefly, as follows:
"We have refused these or
ganizations the use of their own
property; we have denied it be-
cause personality exists in coun-
Gil, rather than voting to pro-
tect the city's property.
"We have failed to live up to
the standard of protecting all of
our citizens.
81 have heard it said that
Newark is going dead. That is
true and council is making it
possible because we are restrict
ing certain organizations that
will bring attractions here.
1--WE are refusing the use of
property which rightfully belong
to these people,"
These timely remarks so i'm
pressed one of the members that
he endeavored to change his
vote after the meeting adjourn
ed, but the city solicitor decid-
ed that a change at that time
was impossible.
This thing of knocking out
and squelching propositions to
liven things up bit in our dead
old town is becoming a chestnut
which should be knocked on the
head and cast aside.
Every town, village and ham,
let in the county, except New
ark, had a crack at the Fourth

Even TODAY reckless driving

abrupt and signalless stop is a
tremendous potential menace to his

spects, more dangerous than the

Self Preservation

that there are times when speeding
is absolutely indefensible. At other
times, however. they hold it Is

announced today. OF twenty-five
three.ton dump trucks by George
w. worth. sub.contractor Tor the
Material Service Corporation, Ill
w. washington St.. Chicago. Mr..
Worth selected these trucks be-
cause due to their short wheel
base; they carry an exceptionally
great percentage OF their load on
the front axle and thereby comply
with the local law, which restricts
truck loads according to rear wheel
pressure.
Although these are three-ton
trucks. they can carry therefore
actually greater load, legally,
than larger vehicles, the Material
Service Corporation reports. Their
short wheel base Is also stated by
the corporation to be serviceable
to contractors who are olten re-
ouired to dump loads In places
difficult of access because of traffic
congestion or building construc'
ton.
Mr.. Worth had not used Autocar
trucks previously and 1t Is said
that he bought this fleet pract-
cally lover the counter" which, n
itself. is an indication that his
Investigation had shown him that
a dump truck of short wheelbase
design was the most economical
unit for him to use in the Chicago
suburbs. That he was not alone in
this opinion is indicated by the
fact that the Autocar Company
received, at almost the same time,
from its st. Louis branch very
similar order for a fleet OF ten OF

one maintaining a legal speed OF 81
miles an hour on a slippery pave
ment or in heavy traffic. The
sueeder's menace, in majority or
cases, is to himself.
1t is different in the case OF the
stopper" In accidents in which
the stopper" figures, 1t Is the
other fellow who usually comes off
worse. The occupant of the ma
chine that catapults into the rear
of a car that has been brought to
an abrupt, unsignalled stop-it can
be readily seen-has only a mis-
cradle chance to escape unscathed.
The cause of his predicament may
get an unexpected push from e.
hind, but the damage is more likely
to be to his car than to his per.
son.
Occurrence Is Common
No driver is forced to dig deep
into his memory to recall instances
that should have impressed him of
the danger of sudden. signalless
stopping. How many times has
everyone but the neophyte been
forced to resort to brakes and a
sudden wrench Of the wheel to
avoid striking a car that is brought
to a quick halt without SO mucl
as a gesture from its driver?
1t is a common occurrence on
city streets, but in metropolitan
areas traffic Is moving more slowly
and one has more chance to COM
pensate for the frailty Of the std.
den stopper who believes in signals
only as an interesting abstraction.

RARE OPPORTUNITY FOR
STUDY OF COOPERATION

Minnesota people are to have
a wonderful opportunity to study
cooperative methods and enter
prises, say officials of the Amer
lean Institute of Cooperation
which will be held at University
Farm, st. Paul, for four weeks
beginning June 81. Separate
courses of from three to six days
duration will be given for the
study of the cooperative market
ing of grain, dairy products, live
stock, eggs, and potatoes. Tobac-
co, cotton, fruit and vegetable
marketing will also have places
on the program.
Classes for regular instruction
in cooperative marketing will be
held the first two hours of the
day. The remainder of the fore
noon and the afternoon hours
from 2 to 4:30 will be used for
addresses by noted authorities
from all parts of the country and
for. ronnd-table discussions led by
specialists
Members of the program COM
mittee at University Farm have
already drawn up tentative pro-
grams for short courses in the
management of farmers eleva-
tors and the carrying on of Co
operative dairy enterprises.
Managers of elevators, operators
of creameries, in fact, all persons
interested in these great indus
tries, can attend these courses by
registering and paying~a nominal
fee. There will be no charge
at all for the more general SEES
sions which will include regular
evening meetings for the public.
The American Institute of Co.
operation is of recent origin and
its first session was held last sum-
mer at the University of Penn
sylvania, Philadelphia. 1t is re
garded as tribute to the Co
operative forwardness of Mime /,
sofa that the second session of
this great body was awarded this
state.
