Death of Don Andrews . i ■u (Continued from page one) tion. Shortly before train time, how- . ever, he left the station und returned home, A few minutes later his body was found nt the rear of his home, with a wound through his heart. Mrs. Andrews and her mother, who was with her on the night of the murder, firmly maintain thut Mr. Andrews committed suicide. No inquest or post mortem was held over the body in Lakeville and relatives here were told that he had shot himself though the heart. Detectives are still working on the case and it is believed that there will be further developments in the near future. Mr. Andrews, who was 25 years old. had been employed by the Pennsylvania railroad company in Ohio as a telegraph lineman for the last four years. He had been married since September 27. 1922.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1923.

Says Condition of Farm- I ers is Very Serious (Continued from page one! we are Juggling that thirty-six billion on the cost-plus plan, a hellish ' practice. The farmer must be paid ■ enough to hold him there and to 1 create a back to the farm movement if we are to save thin country. Forty ’ centuries ago the world had a similar experience. The farmers w re prosperous and great titles arose, tin greatest of which was Babylon. The farmers left their land and moved to the cities ami the farms failed to pro- ■ duce by tenants sufficient to continue prosperity anti Babylon fell. The same thing tan happen here if we permit it, but we won't. The conditions are most serious, however, in 1920 Indiana had 10,000 less farmers than in 191(1, Ohio had 16.000 less, Illinois 14,000 and Michigan 15,000 less. No cyclone blew that land away. Land grabbers turned it into large estates, always a disastrous thing. Go out over this county and look at the empty houses. In 1920 Indiana had 250,000 less improved acres than in 1910 and what has happened since then is ter rible. Forty per cent of the farm land in Indiana is farmed by tenants that's the great trouble. There are three times as many retailers as there should be. What you need is not a bigger town but a better town. Less business houses and more values, mean better service and prices. i < I”*’? ■ as y- i W | I ! t J A .R. KROH Advises 80-Acre Farms. "Farmers, you must get back tc the eighty-acre farm and look alt-r it yourself. Business men you mu . t take care of the transportation and markets. Folks you have no right to buy apples, potatoes or other prod ucts until those raised by your o» r. farmers are purchased. Let’s stop talking sick things and talk wei hings. As a. man tliinketh so is he. Stop scandal and criticism, fight radicalism and keep your feet on the ground. Hate is a terrible thing and always causes trouble.” Mr. Kroh urged co-operation will, the American Federation of Farmers and support of the county agent and of every farmer, the adoption and use o; the Golden Rule. In Indiana in 1920, Mr. Kroh pointer out the milk production was 8.9 per cent greater than in 1910 and the milk sold increased thirteen million gallons.” Eight hundred factories hac a pay roll of $17,000,000 as compared to $11,000,000 ten years ago and against that increased wage the far mer must bid for his farm help am remember he has no opportunity tc add his increased overhead to th' price of his produce for he has noth ing to do with fixing that price. Ti book value of farm lands in the Uni ted States in 1920 showed an increase of 117 per cent over ten years pre vious but the mortgage debt also in creased 132 per cent, so the net-wasn't The mortgage debt on American farms today is eleven billion dollars and the farmers are paying a billior more for labor than they did tei years ago. The farmers are paying $300,000,000 more for fertilizer tliai ten years ago, American bacon sell*, for 39 cents in this country and 31 cents in England and other products in a similar proportion. We need a closer contact between the farmer and the consumer. The need today is not to loan the farmer more money except for marketing and storage, using his product as c ollateral when the markets are not fight. Remember there are not enough eggs produced in the state of Connecticut tc? supply the city of Hartford alone and yet that fact: has nothing to do with the price of eggs there. Spread the Golden Rule—make your life a prayer and remembe rthat the way to help No. 1 is to do something for No. 2.” SasyCo(ini.7li.ffldHkm,6uikcmfwy Says Country Is Slipping. Mr. Kroh said the United States is slipping faster than any nation in history and the way to save it is to get a farmer on his own eighty acres. He is opposed to such radicals as Senator Kahn, Mangus Johnson and others I who preach hate. I Dan Niblick, president of the club, I Introduced the speaker and at the I conclusion plans were made to return I Mr. Kroh here later when efforts will

I he mnd" to have a combined session I of farmers and business men of the | county. Mr. Kroh owns n large ranch in New Mexico und Is a pracI t teal farmer. He ii canipaignlng for | the Goodyear company which believes I that if the farm business Is prosper- ' oils, they will be, Bluffton Men Here. Mr. Kroh held a series of meetings in Wells county last fall and with excellent results. Many members were added to the Farmers Federation and through assistance from the Bluffton business men a large number of cattle were brought in and sold to the farmers in snch a manner that they could make a profit. Last evening a number of Bluffton business men who had heard that Mr. Kroh was to be here came to Decatur to heir him. They are real boosters for Mr. Kroh and his plan. Another War (Continued from Page One) lini with imitation of Napoleon's policy of bolstering up his position at home by external wars. There can be no doubt but that Italian pat riotism has been stirred to the fever point under Mussolini's regime, reacting with marked speed from the depression which followed the world war, in which Italy felt she was robbed of the fruits of her victory. Italy Refuses Arbitration Geneva.
