FARMERS NOT AGREED
From the reading of a number of
farm papers and studying the views
of various leaders of the several
farm groups, it appears that there
are wide differences of opinion re
garding what Congress might do or
ought to do with respect to farm leg
islation.
News from Washington, describing
the various conferences held by Sec
retary Jardine. reflects this situation,
and also makes it plain that the far
mers have not yet been able to solidly
unite upon a program of government
aid.
While immense numbers of farm
ers are affiliated with organizations
formed in their interest, such as the
American Farm Bureau Federation,
the Farmer’s Union, the Grange, var
ious cooperative associations and so
on, in some cases these bodies are
working for widely different meas
ures. The natural result is that the
administration and members of Con
gress are somewhat at sea in trying
to formulate measures which may
meet the farmers’ desires.
Every right minded person really
wants to see agriculture share equit
ably in the national prosperity, but
until the farm leaders can get to
gether upon a definite program it is
not likely that any effective legisla
tion can be passed for their benefit.
In fact, many are of the opinion
that so long as the supply of certain
farm crops exceeds the demand, noth-,
ing that Congress may do will help
the situation very much, in spite of
what politicians promise.
fOUR GREAT HEARS
COUNT'EM
Four great fears accompany you from
your home to your work and remain
with you throughout the day—
It The fear of your family being
left unprovided for;
2. The fear of a penniless old ago
for yourself;
3. The fear of loss of income from
total or partial disablement;
4. The fear of losing what you
have accumulated.
Would it be worth anything to you to have these
feari eliminated from your life—to know that you
were shielded by a complete circle of protection?
A line to us will bring you full details without com*
mitting you to any action.

TOURIST TRAVEL TO LAWING
LODGE BE GREATER THAN
EVER THIS SUMMER
“We have a booking for thirty-five
young ladies and chaperons, who will
arrive in Seward next summer, and
stay at our lodge at Lawing for two
weeks,” stated W. B. Lawing, who ar
rived in town yesterday from beauti
ful Lake Kenai. “Many inquiries have
been received from people who expect
to visit us next summer and among
these was one from the American Ex
press Travel Bureau. Last year’s tour
ist travel was a decided increase over
the business we had in the year pre
vious and, according to present indi
cations this year’s travel to our lodge
will be greater than ever,” Mr. Law
ing said.
To handle the increase of this year
i Mr. and Mrs. Lawing have re-arranged
things a bit and by erecting a few
tents and converting other buildings,
ample accommodations will be found
for from 35 to 50 people. The major
ity of visitors of the past enjoyed im
mensely to have their meals served
in the kitchen due to the fact the
splendid water view glimpsed thru
the winters. These quarters are too
small, however, for a large number,
so the trophy room is, at times, turn
ed into a dining room. Last summer
during the occasion of a visit of a
party of S2, the majority of them were
seated among the many wild animal
specimens which made an extremely
fascinating banquetting hall.
Mr. Lawing plans to drive into Sew
ard each day upon the arrival of a
steamer from the south for the pur
pose of personally meeting travelers
and point out to them the beauties of
Lake Kenai and of restful comfort to
If; found at Lawing lodge. From the
end of the lake he proposes to have
one of his fast motor boats convey
them either to the lodge or to other
points on the lake. He is convinced

this plan, as outlined, will be appre
ciated by the public. He also contem
plates operating the launch on a more
or less regular schedule during the
summer season. The boat to be used
in this service is 32 feet in length,
is equipped with a 35-h.p. engine, mak
ing about 20 miles an hour, and will
accommodate twelve people in com
fort within the cabin. It is felt this
fast craft will prove to be quite an
asset on the lake.
Mr. and Mrs. Lawing have just be
gun planting in the green house. All
kinds of vegetables will be raised as
well as a few choice flowers. The
green house has been remodeled and
is now in much better condition than
before.
Little snow is on theground at Law
ing, it is reported in fact much bare
ground is visible. A light snow be
gan to fall Monday night but has since
ceased. The entire winter has been
one that the oldtimers on the lake
have marveled at. They claim the
present winter is the mildest ever re
called in the Kenai lake district dur
ing the past thirty years. The launch
es have been running up and down
the lake all winter, the only ice being
found, in the small sloughs.
Mrs. Lawing arrived in Seward last
night which was her first trip into
town for some months. Mr. Lawing
said yesterday, Mrs. Lawing and him
self greatly enjoyed shows, and it was
really for the purpose of going to the
amateur performance and the movies
at the Liberty last night, that the trip
to town was made. During their stay
here overnight they were guests at the
hotel Van Gilder.
Rev. Albert S. Gregg, lecturer and
