To make money is comparatively easy. To save it is more difficult. To make it grow is a problen. And not all of us are able to solve the problem. But if ever there was a time when we faced the opportunities for mak- ing money grow, that time is now. Everybody knows that the pros- perity of the nation depends prima- rily upon the farmer and his crops. If he plants in large acreages, and nature is good to him, his yield is bountiful and he becomes the harb- inger of an era of prosperity. ‘When the farmer is plentifully sup- plied with funds he wants new ma- chinery and more machinery, and the making of these gives employment to millions of people. These people in turn have money to spend and the merchant begins to increase the volume of his business and gather in greater profits. And as it is with these, so it is all down the line and extending into every industry and into every home. This year the farmers of this coun- try marketed the greatest crop in history, the total value of the lead- ing crops reaching the astounding figure of over $5,280,000,000. This exceeds last year's yield by over $415,000,000. The making of money by the peo- ple of this community the coming year will depend greatly upon the farmers of our community. If they increase their acreage the wealth of the community will be enhanced in proportion, and through the logical routine of barter and trade it finds its way into every artery of town, farm and countryside. The year to come will witness a tremendous demand for farm prod- ucts. This demand will come from every section of the globe and the buyer pays. in gold. For this reason we urge upon every farmer the advisability, even the vital importance, of cultivating every possible foot of .ground even to .the doubling of your acreage if such a thing be within the bounds of , possibility. The opportunity for making money is before you—the greatest you have ever seen, possibly greater than you will ever see again. You are our mainstay, our back- bone, the.one man upon whom, we all depend, to whom we all turn as the child turns to its mother. Your success will be our success, your prosperity our prosperity, your advancement our advancement. You are the man of the hour, and the opportunity is before you. A CITY ‘MANAGER. The so-called ‘Des Moines plan of: city government, one of the first forms of commission government, which attracted much favorable at- tention:the country over when it was adopted seven years ago, is branded a failure by Councilman W. F. Mit- chell and a considerable percentage .of :the .citizens of Des Moines, Ia. Mitchell was put into office to see if he. couldn’t reorganize affairs and make the plan successful. His re- signation is tendered today, effective this spring. Mitchell says the city manager plan should be adopted by Des Moines. The bonded and floating indebted- ness of Des Moines has increased nearly $1,000,000 since the plan was qut in force seven years ago. The plan -was -heralded as one that would eliminate partisan politics from all munigipal elections, place the respon- ; o we are physically, morally and ment- trol should be vested in:the city man- all.laws: *d, ordinances and to con- "W olallcity work.
