"Net operating income of railroads for 1921 was equal to only 3.31 percent on tentative property valuation as fixed by Interstate Commerce Commission." Business Chronicle. We are wondering if the net operating income of the farms for 1921 was even one percent. Were farms to be operated under the same conditions as the railroads we are wondering what would be the price of a bushel A 1 oi spuas. Those who have the privilege of knowing Senator Patterson are fully aware that he will stand upon every plank upon which his platform is builded should it be his privilege to be selected as chief executive.

If one crosses the western prairies of the great Arkansas valleys, and happens to be there in the fall, dur ing a high wind, one may see a very strange sight. Antelopes, rabbits, prulrie dogs, and sometimes even herds of cattle racing along the plains pursued by strange balls, nearly as tall as a man! These balls, when seen a little nearer, seem to be masses cf sticks stuck closely together. The plant that forms these balls is called the tumbleweed.
