IDEAL ANTISEPTIC | FARMERS CHEERED BY PRICE INCREASE Upswing Is Coupled With| Congressional Action to Ease Debts. By the Assoclated Press. DES MOINES, May 22.—The Iowa farmer is whistling these days as he turns the dapple grays down the lane to the corn fleld. Farm prices are on the upswing, tem- porarily at least. Congressional action promises adjustment of mortgage debt. The budget for 1934 shows an esti- mated $25,000,000 reduction in taxes to be paid by the farmer from this year's crop. But the farmer hasn't fully got rid of 12 years of decreasing prices, in- terest charges and high taxes. The riotous resistance to legal mortgage foreclosures is still fresh in his mind. And rains have slowed corn planting. “But things are looking up now,” &n | old Hollander said. “Give me a good crop this year and good prices, and Tll be back on my feet again.” Change of sentiment in Northwest Iowa, where resentment at economic | difficulties was climaxed by dragging a EVENING on the principal, and left & neat profit. In Plymouth, center of recent farm disturbances, and other Northwestern Towa counties, the appearance of paved roads en daily dairy trucking. An average dairy herd brought $20 to $25 a week, sufficient to buy_clothing, pay for a trip to the State Fair or a down payment, on the new automobile. Then in 1921-22 farm deflation other mortgage to keep apace with in- terest and operating expenses, thinking the slump was temporary. Farm income dropped 60 per cent. Hogs dived from an average of $11.62 in 1926 to $3.21 last year. Corn slipped from 60 to 23 cents, butter from 42 to 20 cents, eggs from 28 to 11 cents. In some places during 1932 eggs brought 5 cents a dozen. Approximately $327,000,000 in mort- gages was foreclosed from 1921 to 193: land was sold twice, even three times. In one Iowa community of 5000 population the number of automobile agencies dropped from 15 to 3. Crops failed in Northwest Iowa in 1930-31. In 1932 hail wiped out the year’s work. Crops on more than 800 farms in Plymouth County alone were m}ned. Hail insurance protected only a few. Bank failures of 1932 added to the farmers’ troubles. One farmer lost, for the time at least, his money for the year’s rent. He sold cattle to raise a new fund, deposited in another bank, and that failed. Kindness of his land- lord prevented eviction. Another was unable to meet a $500 mortgage interest payment. Four Baby Buggies Stolen. CHICAGO, May 22 ().—Speaking of started.

OBERLIN, Ohio, May 22.—A United States Supreme Court test of the legality of the new 2.2 per cent beer will be the first objective of a four-point “second dry war” outlined by Dr. Howard Rus- sell, one of the founders of the Anti- Saloon League. The 77-year-old dry leader, speaking here in the First Congregational Church, where he gathered followers for the league when it was just get- ting started 40 years ago, sounded the call for a new offensive against liquor | last night. The occasion was the first | of & series of meetings celebrating the | league’s fortieth anniversary. Three judges, sald Dr. Russell, have held 3.2 beer intoxicating and illegal— two in lower courts at Columbus and Denver and one in a West Virginia Federal court. Other points in what he called the "second dry war” will be a fight to pre- vent the States from repealing the eighteenth amendment, a drive “to win back State laws which have been re- 'AR.
