At New Secretary of Agriculture Likes To Cling to ‘Country Town’ Tastes ‘Trenton, Mo., April 6.—(?)—“Art” Hyde is a man of simple tastes, say his friends in this little country town, not more than two of whom knew, when Mr. Hyde returned from @ conference with Mr: Hoover at Miami, that he was to be the next secretary of agriculture. Intensely active, inclined to nerv- ousness, he has few hobbies. He smokes cigars considerably and has a pronounced fondness for buttermilk. He fishes some, and is adept at play- ing pitch. It is not uncommon to find him perched on the stool of a lunch counter, late at night, eating bread and milk with a friend. He has a rare vein of humor, blended with biting sarcasm. He refers to himself as a “curb stone lawyer.” His friends have seen him as a successful attorney, as the governor of their state, as a distributor of au- tomobiles, and as the head of a life insurance company. He owns and operates three farms. Although born in Princeton, 20 miles from here, in 1877, he was @ citizen of Trenton when elected governor.. He received 919 of the 998 votes cast in the primary by re- publican voters of the town. He at- tended Aberlin (Ohio) academy, re- ceived the degree of bachelor of art from the University of Michigan and, later, the degree of bachelor of law from the University of lowa. He was admitted to the bar at Princeton, Mo., in 1900. In Trenton he conduct- ed a men’s Bible class at the Metho- dist church. In 1912 he was the choice of the progressive party for attorney gen- eral, He had led the Roosevelt forces of the third congressional district through a stormy fight that ended with the convention at Excelsior Springs. Of that campaign he remarked,- “I got a worm’s eye view of every steam roller that ran that year.” Congratulating {him on his selec- tion by Mr. Hoover, the Trenton chamber of commerce said: “Your whole life gives you a back- ground for the great work in behalf of American agriculture.” Others add these comments: “To the west, and its great farm- ing industry, Hyde's appointment brings new hope”—! Cc. McVay, close political associate. “The farmers may rest assured of the fullest cooperation of the agri- culture department under Secretary Hyde”—Al B. Munsey, delegate to the democratic national convention. “The appointment of Arthur M. Hyde assures the farmers of the en- tire country a fair and equitable solu- Notice ‘The North Dakota Barber Board of Examiners will conduct examinations at the fol- 27th.
