In His Mind and on His Tongue
More Than Any Other Single
Problem With Which Mr.
Wilson Has Paltered.
CRAZY CHAPTER OF BLUNDERS
No One Can Hear Him Speak Without
.Seeing the Reality of His Indigna
tion Over the Heartless Policy of
the Democratic Administration
Toward American Men, Women and
Children, American Citizens, Sol
dlers and Sailors Along and Across
the Rio Grande.
Soon after Mr. Hughes wns nomi
nated a friend said to liliu : "Governor,
If the American people forfjet the Mexi
can dlsgrnce fhey do not deserve to
have you for President." Quick as a
Hash he replied: "The candidate who
(lodges the Mexican disgrace does not
deserve to ho President." He did not
pnss around his address of acceptance
for compliment or criticism In nil
vance of Its delivery hut the amount
of 'space he devoted to the Mexican
dlsgrnce "that confused chapter of
blunders" surprised no one who had
tallied with him since his nomination.
It has heen in his mind and on his
mind, more than any other single prob
lem with which Mr. Wilson has pal
tered: To talk with him Is to see at once
the realltyof his Indignation over the
heartless manner In which American
men, womeu and children, American
citizens, soldiers and sailors have been
abandoned by the Administration along
and ncross the Itlo Grande, the vic
tims of Mexican armed forces, outlit
tcd with American ammunition and
American rifles, Mexicans whom Mr.
Wilson has coddled one day as pa
triots only to chase the next as
bandits.
It Is apparently the belief of Mr.
Wilson that the people of the United
States are not Interested In Mexico.
Ills defenders have declared that It
was on "old story and out of date."
Mr. Hughes has a better opinion of his
fellow countrymen. IIo has proved
himself a better Judge of their feelings.
IIo hns made "the Mexican disgrace"
a foremost issue of his campaign. lie
has assailed tho record of the Admin
istration In thnt respect In almost
overy speech ho has made. He has nev
er failed to strike a responsive chord
In the hearts of his audience, whether
speaking In Carnegie Hall, Jcw York,
from 'the platform of his train at
Grand Forks, North Dakota, to a vast
nudlenco at Portland, at tho Imposi
tion at Sun Diego or In tho prairie
states of the Middle West. Ho has re
futed the slander, sometimes heard In
tho effete Knst, that the people of the
groat West rttf not caro what happens
to their fellow citizens In Mexico or
to tho flag beyond tho border. No
man born In the West has a llrmer
faith In tho fundamental patriotism
and "dominant Americanism" of tho
people of that section than Mr.
Hughes.' IIo holds them responsible
In largo measure for tho encourage
ment and support he received while
Governor of New York In his war
upon political graft and political boss
Ism. IIo thinks they had much to do
with conscripting him ns tho cham
pion of nationalism In tho current cam
paign. IIo showed his confidence In
their practical Idealism when ho made
"tho Mexican disgrace" an uppermost
Issuo of his campaign. Ho has been
vindicated by the response his arraign
ment of tho Administration on this
scoro has everywhere evoked. From
Mn.no to California "tho Mexican dis
grace" Is a soro subject with red
blooded Americans today. Hut no
whero between the oceans nro tho out
rages Inflicted In Mexico upon Ameri
can honor llfo and property inorp
keenly resented tlnm around the tire
Bides of the great West. Mr. Hughes
la no stranger to tho West. His
straightforward talk on Mexico proves
It.

ROOSEVELT'S ANSWER
, 'Against Mr. Wilson's com
bination of grace In elocution
with utility In action; against
his record of words unbneked by
deedsor betrayed by deeds, wo
flee Mr. Hughes' rugged and un
compromising straightforward
ness of character and action In
every ofllco ho has held. Wo
put tho man who thinks and
spenka directly, nml whoso
words'fmvo always been mado
good, against the man whoso
adroit and facile elocution Is
used to conceal his plans or his
want of plans. Tho next four
yours mnywell bo years of tre-
mendous national strain. Which
of tho two men do you, tho s
American people, wish at tho
helm during theso four years:
tho man who has been actually
tried ana xoutm wanting, or tho
mun whose whole career In pub
lic olllco is a guarantco of his
power und good faith? Hut ono
answer Is possible; and it must
: be given by tho American people

Farm Notes.
Issued by the University of Nebrayltn
College of Agriculture.
WHAT IT COSTS TO RUN A FAItM
Opernting expenses for the aver
age eastern Nebraska farm, accord
ing to surveys made by the farm
management department of the uni
versity agricultural college, total
very close to $1,500 or from $7 to
$7.50 per acre.
This figure includes depreciation
charges on buildings and machinery
and the value of all labor including
that of the farmer himself at the
rate of wages for hired men. It
does not include tho interest on the
value of the land. On $100 land,
this would be $5 per acre; on $150
land, $7.50, or as much as all the
other expenses combined.
Operating expenses are about the
same on all farms with the exception
of the extremely large or extremely
small farms, regardless df whether
or not they are showing a loss or re
turning a profit. This is evidence
that it is impossible to reduce ex
penses of operating a farm below a
certain point, and that profits are
not made by reducing expenses but
by increasing farm receipts.
MARVELOUS W11KAT
"Marvelous" wheat, a strain of
wheat for which extravagant claims
have been made by seedmen, was
found this year by the Nebraska
Experiment Station t stool less and
yield less than Turkey Ked wheat.
Seedmen's advertisements for this
wheat represented that the wheat
would yield more, stool more, and
that less seed would be required.
The experiment station found this
year that it is profitable to sow more
than two pecks, and that in any ease
its stooling power and yield were
lower than Turkey Ked. Where two
pecks oi Marvelous wheat were sown,
the yield was 4G.5 bushels; where
five pecks were sown, the yield was
52 bushels. Where two pecks of
Turkey Ked were sown, the yield
was 48.5; where five pecks were
used, 54. This year'j results indi
cate that many claims for Marve
lous wheat vill not bo substantiated.
SURPLUS STRAW
A good way to dispose of some of
the straw you feel like burning, is
to use it in the hen house, says tho
poultry department of the universi
ty college of agriculture, Lincoln.
The straw may be used on the floor
as a scratching litter, for it serves
as a warm carpet and keeps the
birds' feet off the cold floor. It may
also be used lor a Jolt, supported by
1-indi mesh wire netting or by
"l-x-4" boards laid over the rafters
about two inches apart. Along the
walls, wire serves this purpose well.
Lath or burlap bags stretched tight
ly over the studding may also be
used. A vent placed in the roof
over a straw loft will promote ven
tilation and help keep the house
dry.
GAS IN SILOS DANGEROUS
Death lurks in tho carbon dioxide
irus formed whnn flilnrn nmwos Him
the process of fermentation, espe-J
ciany in pit silos, says the agricul
tural engineering department of the
state agricultural college.
Larnon dioxide is transparent,
heavier than air, flows over the
ground like water, and collects in
low places. After starting to put
in the corn, ono should never enter
thesilo witout testing the gas by
lowering a lighted lantern. If the
flame goes out, gas is present. Re
move this by moans of air currents.
WASHING WOOLEN CLOTHES
Strong alkali in the wash water,
quick changes of temperature, and
rubbing causes woolen fabrics to
become: hard, says the home econo
mics extension service of the univer
sity of agriculture, Lincoln.

The U. S. Government has gathered reliable figures as
to the value per acre of Farm Land in every state in the
Union.
The Government takes the value of all the lands in a
state, the high-priced land and the low-priced land, and then
strikes an average."
On Page 36 of the "Monthly Crop Report" for April,
1916, published by authority of the Secretary of Agriculture,
is found a comparison of the average value per acre of land
with improvements, as follows:
NEBRASKA
K A N S A S
The U. S. Government states officially that the average
value per acre of land with improvements is $18.00 per acre
less in Kansas than in Nebraska. On a quarter section this
amounts to $2,880.00.
The soil of Kansas in every way is equal to that of
Nebraska. Climatic conditions are the same.
THEN WHY THIS DIFFERENCE IN FAVOR OF
NEBRASKA? THE ANSWER IS SIMPLY THIS: PRO
HIBITION! PROHIBITION LOWERS LAND VALUES AND IN
CREASES TAXES.
