Tin: m:\v peasantry
The farmer is on the way to
peasantry, ts there a desire to de
flect his course Do the powerful
in *he United States wish to deflec
it? I doubt it. . . . There is li.
th serious thought in the capital.
The President glibly vetoes farm
bills without offering better ones.
Two million farmer folk
abandoned their lands between 1920
and 1920. No farm problem? The
present vast industrial privilege U
the result of a hundred years of
business men in politics. The rail
way leaders have been in polities
since 1850, and they operate now
under the protecting law of 19 20
There has never been a time when
bankers were not in politics, and
the great army of financial men are
now protected and guided to steady
and increasing profits by positive
law Even the labor organizations
lire shielded by State and nation?•
law.—William E. Dodd, The Cer
hj-y Magazine, May, 1928.
NEW ROPE FOR FISHERMEN
The new Nokinko treatment do
veloped after years of research and
< overed by broad basic patents, Is
a ’•evolutionary improvement in th
lubrication of inanila rope. Ths
treatment is the result of an import
ant discovery in the protection of
hard fibers. The ‘Nokinko’ trea
meNl added to inanila rope produce^
‘.i water resisting: rope that does mu
swell, harden or kink when immers
ed in water or e•posed to dampness
‘Nokinko’ is unaffected by the
li-mal exposure to which fishing
i o <e is subject. Years of usefulness
lie before ‘Nokinko’ rope when or
dinarv rope has rotted m useless
ness. Nokinko inanila will wear
hut not rot out.
