Yet wefl find that the total capital of the farm- ers has shrunk from $47,000,000,000 in 1914 to $32,000,000,000 today. This capital has earned only one-half of 1 per cent during the past two years, and this makes no allowance for a, depreciation of approximately two billion dollars in farm equipment. “So inter-related are the units of modern civilization that this will in- evitably react on industry.

Issuance Delayed by Failure of Shipment to Arrive. The issuance of 1927 automobile identification tags will be started sometime next week, it is announced by Wade H. Coombs, superintendent of licenses. The tags originally were scheduled to be placed on sale today, but a delay in the shipment necessi-| tated a postponement. Arrangements have been made to ship the tags to Washington in three installments. Diplomatic and offi- clal tags will be issued the latter part of the week. Mr. Coombs announced that a change in procedure for issuing the tags will be put into effect this year. | Instead of having the application blanks filled out in advance by clerks in the license bureau, the clerk will type in answers to questions when the application is made. The old pro- cedure, Mr. Coombs sald, resulted in a loss of time, because entries had to be changed in many cases. | Relief 6 BELLANS Hot water Sure Relief 25¢ and 75¢ Pkgs.Soid Everywhere !
