Of "Modern" School

Followers Of the modern school
Of painting will look hard before
they find any examples Of truly

annual exhibit of the Society OF

For truly fine artistry, for color

current exhibition, which lasts un-

been surpassed.
Much to Praise
A critic, willing to accept con.

The jury of awards chose
Blanchard Gummo's portrait,
"Afterthoughts Of Heaven" for
first honors, paying tribute un-
doubtedly to the extraordinarily
good title. as well as the talent OF
the artist.
There is a haunting touch of
El Greco there, which may ac'
count for some of the intensity
of emotion that engulfs one look
ing at the picture. The muscles,
too, tightly drawn with hard Ia

reminiscent of Durer's work.

Here is tragedy, yet humility

ACTUAL INCOMES
ON FARMS LOWER
When. Dept. of Agriculture
Figures Are Analysed,
They Show Farmer Is
Worse Off Than q Year
Ago.

WASHINGTON, OCT 29-Statis
tics on farm income published re-
Gently by the Department of Ag-
rlcluture show that actual returns
to the farmers for August of this
year were less than for August,
1884.
Farm income from crops and
livestock for August this year and
a year ago were as follows:
August, 1885, S549,OOO,OOO.
August, 1884, $536,OOO,OOO.
The slight increase in income for
the month was NOT sufficient to
overcome the increase in the cost
Of living for the farmers and HIS
REAL INCOME WAS LESS.
One of the chief reasons why
income in August from farm pro-
ducts was even slightly higher than
In August, 1884, was the increased
prices for livestock. However, here
we find that it is the well-to-do
farmers who did not have to get
rid of their cattle last year through
the AAA-drouth program who
benefit now. The poorer farmers
whose livestock was robbed from
them are not getting those higher
prices.
However, the benefit payments
which are supposed to bring the
farmers income up to parity are
falling away. While benefit pay
ments in August, 1884. amounted
to $72,000,000, they amounted to
only $44,000,O00 in August of this
year.
Total results of farm income and
benefit payments are down con-
siderably compared to last year, as
the following figures show:
August, 1885, $593, 100000.
August, 1884, $608,000,0O0.
In the face of these facts the
paid propagandists of the AAA
aided and abetted by the capitals
press, preached the good "news" o.
tremendous increases in farm in
comes.
