Cash income from farm market¬ ings In July was at the highest level for the month slnoe Ittt, and (or the first seven months of UM it was the highest for a similar period since 1930. The course of (arm cash Income in the last two months has begun to reflect the characteristic movement of farm marketings under a drought situa¬ tion. Earlier and heavier market¬ ings of drought-affected crops and unusually heavy marketings of livestock, as in 1934, have been responsible to a large extent for the more than seasonal gains In farm cash Income. Contributing to the sharp gains In Income dur¬ ing the last two months has been the strong consumer demand for farm products which has acted to sustain (arm prices despite the larger supplies on the market The effect of drought-curtailed crops on (arm cash income will become more manifest as the I93g marketing sea.son advances, and income from farm marketings is expected to In crease less than seasonally in the next (ew months However, (arm cash Income during the remainder of 1938 i^ expected to continue higher than in the corre.spondlng montlis of 1935 in view of the pros- portive demand conditions and probable continuance of heavy live- .^tock marketings. fornEnazareth HllLER CAUED IN BY PHILUES t^tcher Elmer Burkhart, who has seen but little service all aeason with the Hasleton Mountaineers, left on Tue.sday for Philadelphia to Join the nuUies on an optional agreement The Fhlls reserve the right to Uke two players (rom the Haaleton club each .season on option and Burkhart is the nrst to be called.

Nazareth Schools Op«i Yesterday With Largest Teaching Staff In History THE STRAW WEATHER VANE-/5 // Accurate? You've heard the old story about the man who in cutting a Umb from a tree sat on the limb so that wbea the saw went through he fell with the limb. You have also heard a lot about "Oround Hog Day" and know the significance of its meaning— The straw vote, Uke the woodchuck is very uncertain—it may "come out" and it may not; meaning, of course, don t saw the limb through too soon or else you may flnd your¬ self sitting on a "dead" branch While straw votes furnish mater¬ ial for thought and amusing articles conceived by prophets: John Q. I'ubilc, rank and Ale, Is more Inter¬ ested In things fundamental and of permanent construction than the ditty of the propheu fancy Nallaa Abaee FaHy—iU H MwuM Be Out in Des Moines, towa, the United States bas liad an example of how candidates for the presidency should comport themselves Rivals (or the highest ottoe within the gift of tbe people, Freeident Roosevelt and CkMfemor Landon have met each ottwr with unaffected courtesy and friendliness to consult and com¬ pare views on a question of prUnary Importance to the nation, namely, the relief and rehabilitation of the extensive western drought area. "He's a very fine, charming gentle¬ man." said Oovemor Landan when asked his impression of the Fresiden: after the conference. "However thla comes out. lets h.ive a visit afterward." Mr. Roosevel: i.s reported to have said to his oppon¬ ent at their parting. Herein is a splendid model of con¬ duct for the rank and flle of citUens in the current election campaign. It should have a calming and whole¬ some effect on those numerous ex¬ cited partisans of either candidate who hitherto hav** seemed to feel with an intensity verging Into bit- ' terness that their opponents were | aelflsli and sinister plotters and that the country could not be safe except in the hands of their own party. I If the leaders can take a temper¬ ate vii'w of the .situation and can appreciate the worthy quaUtles of the other, surely their followers I should be ^ble to do likewise. There ! has been altogether too much ran- ' cor in this campaign, too much I hatred and expectation of dirtiness. I Persons whose economic situation I conditions them to favor the status iquo have in many instances been AUed with an unreasoning emotion against a president whom they sus¬ pect as a disturber. Others fllled with sympathy for the underprivileged have burned with a flerce zeal against any who objected to their particular metliods of helping the iess fortunate But these are not the conditions [ in which democracy works best. Democracy calls for reason, for temperatenes.s, good nature and tolerance. The dire results of tlie loas of the.<^e qualities are seen in nations where the club and bayonet ikave tak»n the place oi thought and persuasion. When partisan.^hip takes to extremes and men are set hating .md suspecting each other the rights of free individinl.s and the process of con.sider^d national judgement are In danger. But, gratifying, this situation Is !}elng retrieved And credit belongs ;o both candidates for helping to retrieve it. This does not mean tliat they surrender their opinions or give in to each other out of any false or .trtiflclal notion of compromise They liold, according to reports of the conference, the same partially diver¬ gent views tlwy held before But they respect each other's sincerity and the right of each to work for what he believes best. They recognize that the welfare of the nation comes above the interests of party and are willing to advise together on a national problem. They recognize that the interest of ever>' ciUzen lies in holding the ties of nationhood more strongly cement¬ ed together than those of any party or section, and are willing to sub¬ merge politics for the higher good Just as a poUtical party consolidates it.self for unifled eflort after a heat¬ ed and divisive primary election. They are wilUng to ^submit their divergent vlew.s to the'test of pubUc analysis in order that whatever Is best (or the nation may come (orth That is the atmosphere In which democracy thrives. FARM PRKE INOeX HIGHECTIN6YEARS The general level of prices received by (armers on August IS waa the highest in six years, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics reported to¬ day The bureau's Index for that date was 124. compared with US on July 15 and with lOd on August IS a year ago.

Cash income from farm market¬ ings In July was at the highest level for the month slnoe Ittt, and (or the first seven months of UM it was the highest for a similar period since 1930. The course of (arm cash Income in the last two months has begun to reflect the characteristic movement of farm marketings under a drought situa¬ tion. Earlier and heavier market¬ ings of drought-affected crops and unusually heavy marketings of livestock, as in 1934, have been responsible to a large extent for the more than seasonal gains In farm cash Income. Contributing to the sharp gains In Income dur¬ ing the last two months has been the strong consumer demand for farm products which has acted to sustain (arm prices despite the larger supplies on the market The effect of drought-curtailed crops on (arm cash income will become more manifest as the I93g marketing sea.son advances, and income from farm marketings is expected to In crease less than seasonally in the next (ew months However, (arm cash Income during the remainder of 1938 i^ expected to continue higher than in the corre.spondlng montlis of 1935 in view of the pros- portive demand conditions and probable continuance of heavy live- .^tock marketings.

THE STRAW WEATHER VANE-/5 // Accurate?
You've heard the old story about the man who in cutting a Umb from a tree sat on the limb so that wbea the saw went through he fell with the limb. You have also heard a lot about "Oround Hog Day" and know the significance of its meaning— The straw vote, Uke the woodchuck is very uncertain—it may "come out" and it may not; meaning, of course, don t saw the limb through too soon or else you may flnd your¬ self sitting on a "dead" branch
While straw votes furnish mater¬ ial for thought and amusing articles conceived by prophets: John Q. I'ubilc, rank and Ale, Is more Inter¬ ested In things fundamental and of permanent construction than the ditty of the propheu fancy Nallaa Abaee FaHy—iU H MwuM Be
Out in Des Moines, towa, the United States bas liad an example of how candidates for the presidency should comport themselves Rivals (or the highest ottoe within the gift of tbe people, Freeident Roosevelt and CkMfemor Landon have met each ottwr with unaffected courtesy and friendliness to consult and com¬ pare views on a question of prUnary Importance to the nation, namely, the relief and rehabilitation of the extensive western drought area.
"He's a very fine, charming gentle¬ man." said Oovemor Landan when asked his impression of the Fresiden: after the conference.
"However thla comes out. lets h.ive a visit afterward." Mr. Roosevel: i.s reported to have said to his oppon¬ ent at their parting.
Herein is a splendid model of con¬ duct for the rank and flle of citUens in the current election campaign. It should have a calming and whole¬ some effect on those numerous ex¬ cited partisans of either candidate
who hitherto hav** seemed to feel with an intensity verging Into bit- ' terness that their opponents were | aelflsli and sinister plotters and that the country could not be safe except in the hands of their own party. I If the leaders can take a temper¬ ate vii'w of the .situation and can appreciate the worthy quaUtles of the other, surely their followers I should be ^ble to do likewise. There ! has been altogether too much ran- ' cor in this campaign, too much I hatred and expectation of dirtiness. I Persons whose economic situation I conditions them to favor the status iquo have in many instances been AUed with an unreasoning emotion against a president whom they sus¬ pect as a disturber. Others fllled with sympathy for the underprivileged have burned with a flerce zeal against any who objected to their particular metliods of helping the iess fortunate
But these are not the conditions [ in which democracy works best. Democracy calls for reason, for temperatenes.s, good nature and tolerance. The dire results of tlie loas of the.<^e qualities are seen in nations where the club and bayonet ikave tak»n the place oi thought and persuasion. When partisan.^hip takes to extremes and men are set hating .md suspecting each other the rights of free individinl.s and the process of con.sider^d national judgement are In danger.
But, gratifying, this situation Is !}elng retrieved And credit belongs ;o both candidates for helping to retrieve it. This does not mean tliat they surrender their opinions or give in to each other out of any false or .trtiflclal notion of compromise They liold, according to reports of the conference, the same partially diver¬
gent views tlwy held before But they respect each other's sincerity and the right of each to work for what he believes best.
They recognize that the welfare of the nation comes above the interests of party and are willing to advise together on a national problem. They recognize that the interest of ever>' ciUzen lies in holding the ties of nationhood more strongly cement¬ ed together than those of any party or section, and are willing to sub¬ merge politics for the higher good Just as a poUtical party consolidates it.self for unifled eflort after a heat¬ ed and divisive primary election. They are wilUng to ^submit their divergent vlew.s to the'test of pubUc analysis in order that whatever Is best (or the nation may come (orth
That is the atmosphere In which democracy thrives.
