The time is past due for the admission of Alaska into the Union. This issue has been argued by seven consecutive Congresses, and is now before the U. S. Senate. All possible arguments in support of and in opposition to Alaska statehood have been raised and discussed. Both the Democratic and Republican parties have pledged support to statehood in their party platforms. The issue is not new, nor is it partisan. Immediate action should be taken,,to place the 49th star in the American flag. o-—'o Vance Hartke, mayor of Evansville, has been nominated by the Democratic state convention as the Democratic candidate for U. S. Senator. A firm, aggressive gentleman, Hartke is a sound thinker, a good speaker, and a tireless campaigner. He has crisscrossed the state for the past year fearlessly attacking the inconsistencies of the Republican state and national program. Hartke is a fitting successor to such famous Democratic senators from Indiana as Dan Voorhees, the “tall sycamore from the banks of the Wabash," Sherman Minton and Tom Taggart. A vote for Hartke this Fall will help destroy lunacy in Washington. —o o * How do Decatur merchants sell us merchandise at prices below

those charged in large cities? Everyone is familiar with the argument that big stores can buy large quantities, and can therefore sell at a lower price. This, of course, is not true. The average Decatur merchant today is the member of some large buying group, and is part of the operation buying in large quantity. Even independent grocers are members of buying associations. Small-town stores have much less “overhead." The store owners work full time themselves. Faqiily members help out. Labor is less expensive. They have lower taxes per SIOO valuation, and lower valuation; lower rents, if they do not own their property. They do not, as a rule, use expensive advertising mediums, like radio and TV, to sell. So they do not have to jack up the cost of the items they sell. The basic cost of an item, plus “overhead” (including labor, taxes, rent, advertising)” plus profit, makfe up the cost to the buyer. In the final analysis, Decatur merchants usually can, and do, have the same quality goods for less price than they cost in the big cities. You Save the worry and bother of driving and parking by shopping here, and at the same time help develop a better community. Shop in a good town —Decatur!

New fiybrid Com System Developed Choosing Correct Varieties Shown A newly developed system for selecting correct hybrid corn varieties by analysis of farm growing conditions was reported today by William H. Journay, of route 3, area manager for Cargill, Incorporated’s, hybrid corn department. The system, balled prescription service, was introduced at the special Cargill hybrid corn area managers’ meeting at Decatur June 27. The prescription service considers several variables— planting methods and machinery, soil fertility, drainage, maturity desired, past yields and planting dates—found on each farm. Data is analyzed and a hybrid corn planting recommendation, or prescription, is made. By considering these controllable factors, the system reduces much of the element of risk, normally involved in raising hybrid corn, Journay said. A Other worshop activity included a research report on the opening of a new research center naer Minneapolis, establishment of a corn breeding station near Rochelle, 111., a number of new hybrid varieties, and a 20 per cent expansion in company research personnel the past year.
