It does not invade the skeleton closets and threaten to drag forth the contents to public view. It does not by misrepresentation, prevari- cation, false statements or other deception at- tempt to induce advertising patronage. p It does not bury subscription records in dark closets, away from the view of the ad- rertising public; but on the contrary freely exhibits this data to anyone concerned. It has no secrets respecting its busi: its business methods in any particular soever. It does not pretend to be anything other than that which it can fully substantiate and justify by the most searching and enlightened business methods. It does not believe in unfairness, trickery or false pertenses, and neither does it practice them in any department. The Tribune is a business institution, guid- ed entirely by tried and approved business methods, with ideals of honor, honesty and fair dealing. It is free from envy, malice and vindictive- ness. Does not seek to punish those it does not approve nor exact tribute from those who have substance, for imaginary service. The Tribune has a fixed policy in its busi- || ness, its opinion and its general attitude to- ward the public, This policy cannot be influ- enced by either rewards or threats. 8 or Corn in Wyoming One of the greatest things accomplished by the farmers of Wyoming in the history of agri- culture in this state was the corn show at Wor- land. No other thing has opened up a wider field for good and for the future prosperity of the state than this gathering of a newly grown prod- uct and the men who grew it into a convention to compare results and discuss their experiences. Corn, as a crop is a new venture in Wyoming. True it has been produced in a sort of a desul-} tory way for some time back, but never until this year has any substantial and well directed ef- fort been made until the enterprising ranchers and formers of the Big Horn basin seeking «| way out of their troubles in growing a single} crop, took the matter up in earnest with a view} of going to the bottom of the experiment. The result has been as fine corn as can be produced in Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Illinois or any other corn state in the union. Worland pointed the way and induced the ex- periment, financed the corn exposition and did} all these things well and through all these ef- forts from the beginning to the ending the name of C. F. Robertson leads all the rest in bringing about the great success. Wyoming farmers and stockmen should come | alive and profit by the lessons of the corn show. | The day of big herds and the one crop system has gone. Success in the future is with smaller herds and diversified crops. There will always be summer range in Wyoming. It is essentially a grazing country. There is none better in the} world. But there must be winter feed at home.} And feed must be grown with a view of use in finishing the stock for market on the ranch in- stead of selling the stock on the market to be fat- tened and finished in another part of the coun- try. Do the whole thing in Wyoming is the policy that will bring greater prosperity to farmer and stockmen alike than any other that can be adopt- oA under present conditions in both great in- ustries. The growing of corn as a regular crop along with the other products which reach such mar- velous prefection in this state must be brought about, for in this grain is to be found the highest food value, and fattening qualities for all live- stock inte 1 for meat products. It answers all requirements for sheep, cattle, hogs and ponitry and {s superior feed for beasts of bur- den. Wyoming farmers like their brethren else- whe lave suffered from the abnormal. condi- tions that have followed in the wake of deflation in the transition from war to peace. Live stock naturally made a quicker recovery than agricul- ture, for the very good reason that agriculture is the basis of all things and upon it the whole load of costs came. It will be longer in recover- ing its normal than other activities because it has no other interest to which it can pass on its overhead costs of doing business. It has had to absorb them all. Corn and the feeding of corn in Wroming of- fers one avenue out for the farmer. For under this plan he is not offering a raw product which everybody has of his own, but is offering a fin- ished product which everybody desires and can- not well get along without. Every interest in Wyoming which has the good and prosperit; f a rt shonld come forward with its help and its encouragement to ‘ment, and as such unconstitutional. Hlaw, confidence in the legality of the provisions | | the end that Wyoming become a great corn state. We don’t mean that corn should be grown for market, but we do mean that it should be grown to feed livestock and the finished livestock be jsent to market. If the financial interests, the stock interests {ong ranching interests of the state can get to- gether in a corn movement, it will help in five years that can not be accomplished otherwise in fif- teen or twenty years. Little old Worland has shown the way. What will Wyoming do? Test for Flexibility Clause The constitutionality of the flexible provisions of the Fordney-McCumber tariff law apparently is about to be put to the test. Action has been instituted in the District of Columbia courts by the Norwegian Nitrogen Products company of New York to compel the commission to per- mit inspection of an application filed by the American Nitrogen Company, of Seattle for an The decision in the case is expected to pass on the constitutionality of the flexible clauses which are brought before the court for the first time. It will be recalled that the flexible provi- sions of the present tariff law were the subject of intensive study from the standpoint of their bate when the bill was before the congress. Opponents of the provisions declared them to be an attempt on the part of congress to “pass the buck,” to the president in the matter of future tariff rate-making and they branded the attempt a supine delegation of legislative au- thority to the executive branch of the govern- The pro-| visions authorized the president, acting: through the tariff commission, to raise or lower | duty rates set forth in the tariff schedules within limits of fifty per cent of those rates, where conditions, as determined by the commis- sion, might justify; or, in case this latitude in adjustment did not suffice, the duty rates might be based on the American selling price of do- mestic articles similar to those imported. Senator McCumber, chairman of the finance committee, presented an exhaustive brief to sup- port the constitutionality of the provisions, and in the minds of the majority of the senators and representatives in congress there was little question as to their soundness from the consti- tutional standpoint. After the bill became a was expressed by high constitutional authorities and leading economists and business men. For example, John F. Edgerton, president of the} National Association of Manufacturers, said: “Whatever differences of opinion may arise | with respect to rates and schedules in the tariff act of 1922, its administrative provisions will represent a great constructive advance. Within} a standard established by Congress, the Chief | Executive, upon the investigation and recom- mendation of the tariff commission, may adjust! rates within 50 per cent limits, to equalize costs | of production in our competition with foreign producers. If the validity of the legal prin- | ciple is sustained, as I have no doubt it will be, and the administrative experiment is successful as I believe it must be, the occasion for general political revisions of tariff rates is passed.” The main contention of those opposed to the flexible provisions was that if the chief execu- tive could be authorized to move within fifty per cent limits in adjusting tariff rates, there was nothing to prevent a subsequent congress from raising the limits to ninety-nine or even one hundred per cent, whereby the purse-strings insofar as the tariff was concerned, would be relinquished to the executive branch of the goy- ernment, thus centralizing still further all powers in those hands. And if tariff rates could be so administered there was nothing to prevent! all other federal tax rates from being so handled so that congress might eventually give blan- ket authority and adjourn sine die. Hence the decision of the supreme court on a measure which Revublicans admitted was experimental, is awaited with a great deal of interest. It will have a marked effect, no doubt, on subsequent} tax legislation. 1 Defects in Argument The Chicago Tribune disagreeing with Mr. Coolidge on the bonus question says: “Perhaps his often-praised penchant for brev- ity of expression has led him into a tactical er- ror in this matter.” The Tribune expresses its stand for “adjusted compensation” thus: “It is our contention that when the govern- ment used certain men at the risk of their lives {and health, and at the sacrifice of their comfort and financial opportunities, for $30 or $33 a month, minus insurance and allotment deduc- tions, while shipyard workers and others were allowed to profit enormously it promoted a gross injustice, The idea of the bonus is to reduce such injustice.” Opponents of the bonus admit the gross injust- ice of paying soldiers $30 or 33 a month and al- lowing shipyard workers and others to profit enormously. But the only way to do justice to the ex-service man now is to deal with individ- ual cases of sickness, disability and need. The bonus bill takes no account of the present fi- nancial or physical condition of the former sol- diers and sailors. It provides for a general hand- out regardless of individual circumstances. Neither does the bonus bill provide that the government take the money for the bonus only from former shipyard workers and others who profited enormously in the war. Such a scheme would be impossible anyway. The people as a whole will have to stand the expense of the bon- us bill if it is passed, eventually through taxa- tion, regardless of the method of raising the funds. The poor man with a large family to support will have to give up part of his income in order that some ex-seryice man in easy financial cir- cumstances and in sound physical condition may get a few hundred dollars of “adjusted compen- sation.” What the World Needs More kindness, less creed. More giving, less greed. More smile, less frown. Lesy kicking a man when he's down. More “we” less “I.” More laugh, less cry. More flowers on the pathway of life. Fewer on graves at the end of the strife.

C. A. Wil- | ams, although the official order has {not yet been made. This is to be re- ' gretted not only from the fact that | & resource of $15,000 is lost annually, !but an opportunity for training {young men is closed. It proved Im- possible to keep the troop up to re- cruiting strength. Thirty-two head of horses and property to the amount of $87,000 will be checked out and shipped to Cheyenne. Work Progressing ‘THERMOPOLIS—Work on im- proving the Yellowstone highway be- tween Thermopolis and Kirby is pro- gressing in a very satisfactory manner. Mr. Olson, engineer in charge for the state, is reported to have stated that better progress has been made on this project than any in this part of the state for a long e. Chas. J. Bangert, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, who has been making trips over the road every few days, gives most encouraging reports of the progress of the work. It is probable that there will need to be suspensiun on account of weather, but it is believed that much af the work will be completed before bad weather conditions prevail and perhaps it will all be completed for the opening of the canyon highway. Paul Sawyer, contractor, is to be congratulated for the speed he is showing. — LOVELL—Announcement is made by reliable authority that the Lovell glass factory will open for its winter period next Monday. In talking with Mr. R. EB. Rich- ardson about the proposed period of operation, he said that a full crew of men were on hand for the coming operation of the plant, and that it was the purpose of the company to continue through the winter months, for at least five months period, and perhaps more. The length of time the plant will operate, according to Mr. Richardson, will depend upon the success of the company in dis- posing of thelr output. Feeding Test TORRINGTON—The Goshen Coun- ty Sub-station Experiment Farm will on January Ist start a contest on home grown seeds for fattening hogs. This experiment will run for one hundred days, and seventy pure- bred Duroc pigs welghing around fifty pounds each will be used in the test. These pigs are September far- row and are.all smooth @nd in good shape to give the feeding experi- ment a thoro trial. This feeding experiment should be one of the most interesting that has ever been undertaken by the local station, and it has an unusual importance as it is really a test be- tween home grown corn and eastern corn. It is also a contest between the feeding value of yellow corn as against white corn. White corn is sald to be without vitamines, but these can be supplied in tankage, alfalfa hay and clover. —_— Stockmen to Meet CODY—Important legislation pend- ing which affects the interests of every stockman and which furnish remedial relief or wreck the future Matters and Things, of State-Wide Interest, Wired In, of It Purloined in Wyoming prospects of the fu- ture is given as the reason for is- suing a call for representatives of of 70 days, This exceeds the 1919 run by eight days, which was the long- est campaign previous to this year, with the exception of the first year the factory was operated in 1916. ‘The longer run that year was entire- ly on account of unusual mechanical troubles encountered during the first period of operation. The daily slicing average of the Lovell factory this year was 902 tons, or about twenty carloads per day. This average exceeds that of last year when the Efficiency flag was won, by eight tons per day. Added to the wonderful run made this year, is the fact that the cam- paign was free from serious acci- dents and the fact that the working crew who started the campaign, was about the same personnel that fin- ished. The initial payment for all beets bought by the Lovell factory this year is close to the half million dol- lar mark, being $355,301.72. Of course growers will receive the addi- tfonal amounts throughout the year the same as last year, as the sugar Casper National Bank. THE GREATEST CHRISTMAS STORY EVER TOLD THE ANNUNCIATION Luke 1:26-33, 38 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth; to a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hall, thou art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Ma for thou hast found favour with God. And behold thou shalt .. . bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the son of the Highest; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: And he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever; and of his king- dom there shall be no end. And Mary said, Behold the hand- maid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. THE MAGNIFICAT Luke 1:46-55 And Mary said, My magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour; | For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden; for, be- hold, from henceforth all genera- tions shall call me blessed. For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his} name. i And his mercy {s on them thet fear him from generation to genera- tion. He hath showed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the Imagination of their hearts. | He hath put down the mighty | from their seats, and exalted them! of low degree. He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath, sent empty away. i soul doth yy i . Fresh Oysters, Ducks and Geese Fresh Pork Hams, Ib. Fresh Pork Loins, lb.

THE BIRTH OF JESUS Luke II:1-9 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city of David, which is entled Bethlehem (because he was of the house and lineage of David); To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife. And so it was, that, while they were there, ‘the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
