PKKFK(T PALMK'lTO I'DOK One From ('hurlcnlon in Satirical After Much Travel on Circuit. Judge William H. (!nm})all of Charleston,' honor gueat of the Spartanburg bar association, at a banquet, ending an unbroken month of court over which ho presided in Spartanburg, gave his definition of the qualifications of a perfect circuit judge in rcs|H>nHe to a toast to him. The definition, material for which was leathered by the judge in traveling <><l<l thousand miles as a circuit judge on the South Carolina bench during the past six years, follows: "He must be u sweet-tempered tight-rope walker with patience enough to relegate Job to the realm of forgotten comparatives. He should have no family and no home. Ho should love isolation, movie pictures and crossword puzzles. He should be u tough, old fellow, not too old and not too tough. "He should know some law-not too little and not too much. He must) constantly remember that no one? neither .the lawyers nor himself knows the law, and that Saturday s "yes" often becomes Monday's "no" upon the arrival of West brook's advance sheets in the mail. He must define a scintilla as a piece of evidence so iuf'mitesimally small that it require* the combined endeavor of at least three out of five men to determine that it is in fact any larger than absolute zero. "Physically he should have a stomach made of cast-iron and a hide tough enough to successfully resist the 'attack of bed-bugs, itch, rats and mosquitoes. He should always preserve the balance of thought and never under any condition nonsuit the saine lawyer twice in the same day unless the second case is the last for trial that week and it's getting close to time for the bus to leave."

The importance of this action will be more fully realized when it is understood that tractors and power machines make up the major portion of the company's implement business. The broadening of the plan to cover all tractor-operated machines makes it possible for a great many farmers to take advantage of it. farmers already provided with tractors and & desiring to secure additional tractoroperated equipment for more economical crop production now have the opportunity of buying ' this needed equipment on the favorable terms of the crop price guaranty. This definite price guaranty has the effect of removing all uncertainty as to market prices for wheat, corn and cotton later in the year. The guaranteed prices are 70 cents a ' bushel, Chicago, for No. 2 hard wheat; 50 cents a bushel, Chicago, for No. 2 yellow corn; and 8 1-2 cents a pound, New Orleans, for middling cotton. If market price quotations for these products do not reach the guaranteed price at the time payment becomes due on notes given and maturing this year, farmers purchasing after this date machines included in this special offer will receive a credit equal to the difference. The crop price guaranty plan has been accepted throughout the country as convincing evidence of the Harvester Company's faith in the fundamental soundness of agricultural prosperity and is its belief that prices for farm products must soon improve.
