A careful examination of the fields
of the county revealed the fact that
too much of the wheat yet is badly
mixed. In order to make it pos
sible for farmers to get wheat of good
quality for seed, a large percentage
of the wheat fields of the county have
been inspected aind a number have
passed the certification test. No
wheat can pass that has more than
one-half of one per cent mixture un
less all the mixtures happen to be
wheats of the same color of the
wheats in question. It will be notic
ed from the list below that almost
without exception the wheat certified
run less than one-half of one per
cent mixture, much of it run under
one-q.uart.er of one per cent mixture.
Farmers desiring to secure a clean
start of seed can do so by arranging
with any of the farmers listed below:

True, everyone may know you're in business

about the new things you are showing, about
the special bargains you are offering and the

Many people may be going past your stoi c

REMEDY IN YOUR HANDS
I have been asked many times, and
particularly since this series began :
"What Is the remedy for the condition
and situation of government business
that you have described? What can
we, the average man or woman with
out influence, and with no knowledge
of politics, what can we do about it?"
Well, the answer is that you can do
everything about it. The remedy lies
wholly witMn your own hands, us 1
have tried to point out In each one
of the articles that have preceded
this one. It is a remedy easy to pre
scribe hurt I confess, difficult to put
into effect.
Difficult, I mean, In the sense that
you will have to give up time from
your own engrossing private affairs to
pay some attention to what you prob
ably think of as public affairs nnd, as
such, not concerning you. The whole
point I have to make Is that public
Affairs are your affairs.
I do not suggest that you go Into
politics. I do not suggest that you
attend political meetings. I do sug
gest that you take an Interest, n direct
personal Interest, In the business of
government as distinguished from the
politics of government.
A part of the remedy you ask for
(he conduct of the business of govern
ment has been applied when the facts
and the conditions are spread broad
cast nnd majle known to every tax
payer. Bad conditions are In a way
to be remedied when they become
known.
But some hundreds of you have
written me and asked : "How can we
help? What can we do?" Let's take a
concrete case.
Congress has committed Itself to the
policy of building twenty first-class
battleships in the next few years.
Armed and equipped, those battleships
will cost In the neighborhood of $45,
000,000 each. That will make a totnl
cost of $900,000,000 ; that Is, just short
of a billion dollars.
Do you approve fhat expenditure?
Do you think it wise nnd necessary?
Do you think we ought to spend our
money that way? Do you think we
ought to spend 80 or 00 per cent
of our tofal national Income for wars,
past, present and prospective? That
Is what we are doing. If you approve
of It you have only to sit still and
say nothing. If you disapprove of It,
let your congressman know.
I " You live in a congressional district
' and every two years you send a man
I here to Washington to attend to your
I public business. Do you know him?
Do you know what he Is doing here?
j Your state lias two senators, who also
represent you here. If they do not
' represent you fairly, you can keep
them at home. Whatever a majority
I of you want you can have.
To this moment a majority have
approved, at least by silence, the great
military expenditures that have been
made from the money you bnve paid
In taxes. If now you have come to
the conclusion that It Is too much, you
have only to say so.
i Do you realize that this conference
j on the limitation of armament which
j President Harding called arose fnn
I danifiitally out of the circumstance
j that all of the so-called big nations
are paying more than they can nftnnl
to pny by way of preparation for war?
The endeavor to find a formula to
limit armaments Is another way of
saying that the nations are trying to
find a way to save 'money. Since the
war the great powers are all living
beyond their means. All of them are
111 debt. All of them, except ourselves,
"owe more than they can pav. In all
-of them. Including (Tie1 fulled States,
government expenses nre running be
yond government Income. A nation
can no more stand that sort of thing
than a private person or n private
Illness, . q
If SI I'V'V'IUr On If 1'WS
an hour every evening to thinking
about and talking, about public busi
ness you will l.e amazed ft lie
prompt response yon will get. If th'Te
Is anv question .voij.wjiptjto ask. write
to your congressman or to either oio
of your senators. That will cost you
two cents for a postage stump, and It
won't cost Mm nnytli'nz to reply, for
bis letters go through the mails free.
That Is one way of helping to remedy
the present condition.
