Foodthe Problem of the Hour ■ THE for food has the world in its grip. To produce more food we must depend upon gasoline power on the farm to multiply ' the efficiency of the man power available. The following interesting comparison of manpower vs. machine-power, required per acre is illuminating: Crop Man-Hours Man-Hours (1 acre) By Hand By Machine Barley .... 64 ... . 4.25 Corn . . . . 7.70 Cotton .... 168 .... 79 Hay 21 ... . 8.45 Oats 66 ... . 4.25 Potatoes .... 109 .... 38 Rice 62 .... 17 Rye 63 ... . 4.25 Wheat .... 61 ... . 4.25 The United States has changed from an agricultural into a semi-industrial nation. Never again will it see the day when 97 percent of its population dwells on farms. Yet the fact ' remains that the United States must feed itself, and the only way this can be done is through intensive soil cultivation, made pos- ’ sible by automotive machinery. On the farms of the Middle West the gasoline tractor, truck, and automobile are multiplying the productiveness of man-power, and are doing their part in furnishing an adequate supply of food-stuffs. Throughout this great section the Standard ; Oil Company (Indiana) has developed a system of distribution which insures the farmer an adequate supply of gasoline and lubricating oils. This system is based upon huge storage depots, fed from three large modern refineries. Anticipation of possible difficulties is but one of the many burdens the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) assumes in order that consumers of the Middle West may have their wants supplied.

right to do as he pleases. After all there Is not much hope of really improving conditions until the supply exceeds the demands, then will come again old-fashioned competition. Dale J. Crittenborger, district chairman, accompanied by a half dozen district and state leaders, men and women will be here next Tuesday night to meet the local workers and plan for the campaign. It is important that every precinct worker in the county attend. The delegates to the San Francisco convention will go uninstructed and will decide upon their candidate after in session. This is right and as a result the state primary law is of absolutely no use. The next legislature in Indiana should repeal the expensive and useless law. Your taxes are high now, much higher in most cases than ever before and with the present high valuation it will be easy to further boost them. Added to this the centralized powers in the republican party openly assert that they will impose an income tax law on you if again given power. Every citizen interested in this community should attend the meeting of the Decatur Industrial association this evening. Several important mat tors will be discussed and this will be the opportunity for you to bring up anything you may have in mind to assist in making this a better city. Come and bring your friends along and let’s have a rousing home town meeting. The republicans are gathering in Chicago for the national convention and a hot old scrap is predicted. It is , doubtful if any of those prominently < mentioned, will be able to secure a i majority vote and just at present there I is much talk about Hughes. Knox. Watson, Beveridge and other dark horses.
