ARMERS WEEK at M. A. 0., January.

I , 30,, to February 3, will stand out as
the biggeSt agricultural gathering in 1922
in Michigan, if the plans made by the dif-
ferent associations which will meet at the
college and the college authorities are car-
‘riedout' according to the present plans.
“We expect that there will be as many at-
tendingthis year as there was last year, if
not more,”'reports A. M. Berridge, chair—
manof the committee in charge of all the
arrangements for the big week.
 Special meetings for the women where
speakers of national repute will address
them. are a feature of the huge gathering
this ,year. Following the speeches the wo-
men will be given a chance to arrange for
personal conferences with. the speakers in
which they may take up .phases of the work
"in which they are particularly interested.
_NO one should hesitate” to brirgthe baby to
the big gathering. Members ofthe Home
EcOnomics teaching staff will be in charge
Of special rooms where the children may
be left and cared fOrvvhile the mothers are
attending their meetings. ‘ . Rest rooms
Where the womenmay lie down will be pro-
vided in the “Woman’s Building.

Round trip tickets to Lansing and re-

turn can be purchased at any’ point in the
State ’ over all railroads and interurbans.
No red tape is cbnnected with the securing
of the reduced rates, as has been the case
at many‘large gatherings. By purchasing
. a round—trip ticket ‘when you start for
'T  Lansing yen 'Will only have to pay fare and
' a fer 'the ticket- NO certiﬁcate of at-
tendance or registration card -‘is ' required.
It is expected'that, these reduced rates will
mean a good increase in the number who
will come to East Lansing for the confer-
ences and 'big meetings. . ‘

more farmers fend inggstriel leaders”
who have accepted imitations to the
conference. The float two days of
the conference will be given over to
committee reports. The committees
are expected to make deﬁnite recom-
mer dations for solving the problems
brought before the conference. More
than 50 per cent of the delegates to
the conierenc \ 1 independent
farmers in vari us lines of produc—
tion or representatives of farmers'

. general or business Organizations.

The farm bureau will ask early
enactment of laws clearly deﬁning
the rights of farmers to market
their products co-‘operatively and en-
actment of each measure as will pro—
vice proper credits to- tumors. Long
term farm credits, commodity ﬁ-
nancing based on warehouse re-
ceipts, personal credits secured by
proper insurance features and ma-
chinery that will allow co-operative
systems to borrow direct have been
urged by the farm bureau and the
agricultural bloc in congress.

The conierenoe will also be asked
to harken to the farm bureau's trans-
portation reforms, which include
an immediate reduction in freight
rates; that all savings in operating
costs be at once put into further
rate reductions until the increase of

repeal of the Escheou’mm’m law so
as to remove the guaranteed earn-
ings clause, (and repeal or. amend-
ment of the Adams‘on law so as to
nullify the national'rail labor agree-
ments. , . _
The farm bureau is also interested
in immediate development of the
Alabama‘ Muscle Shoals Nitrate
Water Power project as a means of
preserving our soil resources. En-
. actment of the export grain feature
of the “farmers' relief" bill will be
asked. The bill provides that the
War Finance Corporation be. per.-
mitted to make advances to foreign
purchasers of our products. the
money to be expended in the United
States.
Other farm bureau suggestions
. will be that the effectiveness of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture be

_ safeguarded and in 10 wise lessened;

that the Truth-in-Fabrics bill Le
pushed forward to enactm nt and
that a law be passed forbidding the
manufacture and sale of .ﬁlled con-
densed milk. The adoption of uni-
form and standard grades for agri-
cultural products will be urged.

~CROP VALUE PER ACRE DROPS
‘BOJ’ER CENT IN TWO YEARS
AVERAGE value per acre of
10 crops constituting
tenths of all crop .production,
dropped in $35.71 to $14”.48, or
M60 per nt, during the 'two' years,
1319-21, announced the United
State Departinen’t—ot Agriculture re-
cently’. This decline is unparalleled
within the scope of records of the
department dating back to 1881;.

During the years immediately fol-
lowing the ,civilw'war the general
trend of the average was downward,
dropping from about $14 or $15 per
acre to less than $8 by 1896, the
lowest point- in, the industrial de-
pression of that time. An advance
then set in and by 1913 the average
value per acre was $16.49. The fol-
lowing year there was a slight de-
cline to $16.44 caused by the low
price of cotton, but in 1916, the
year before the United States ent-
ered the world war, the average ad-
vanced to $22.58, or $6.14 in two
years. '

By far the greatest gain in one
year in average value per acre for
10 crepe was $10.69-‘from 1918. be
1917, the average for the latter
year being $33.36. The average for
1.13 was $38.73. The average con-
tinued to rise and in 1919 reached
the peak of $36.76. A decline then
set in. the average dropping $31.28

. 4 countries reaches many millions of tons, re- _

port G. F. Warren and W. F. Callander'of the
_ , United “States Department of Agriculture, recent-
ly'returned from the study of agricultural and
market» conditions in Europe. Germany alone

requires 2,000,000 tons of imported foods before ’

[the next harvest.- Czecholevakia, Austria, Italy
and France are also looking to America for huge
quantities to supplement their own supplies.

The severe drought that occurred in Europe
last spring came after the rye and. wheat crops
‘ were out of danger.
' shine, coupled with s‘uﬂlcient moisture in the soil
to ripen these crops resulted in excellent yields,
declares Dr. Warren, but barley and oats were
generally damaged and corn, potatoes, sugar
beets and fodder crops suffered most of all. For
example, in Germany the wheat yields per acre
were 20 per cent above those 1 1920, while po-
tato yields per acre were per cent less than
year beio're last. In Hungary the wheat yield per
acre was 14.4 bushels in 1920 and 17.5 bushels
last year. But the “yield of potatoes per, acre was
121.2 bushels year b‘etore last and 66.7 bushels
last year. Corn yielded _24.9 bushels per acre
year before last and 13.6 bushels last year.
The drought damaged pastures
crops to such an extent that in some countries

live stock was sold on! as a result. Such sales 1‘

tended further to depress the meat markets. The
drought » also delayed the muting of winter
wheat 7mm the late rains'cameg The area seed-
‘ ed was reduced and in much of Europe the sow-
ing was done after the best date ilor seeding, so

/ I that the crop this year will be injured unless the

winter is very favorable.
SURPLUS-PRODUCING oou-ﬁmms

Roumania’s exportable surplus will probably
be less than 300,000 tons, reports L. G. Mich-
eels, who is making similar studies tor the De-
partment” of Agriculture in that country. This

SMALL AND eunenthusiastic crowd of beet
growers met at‘ Saginaw Honday, Jan. 23rd,

to discuss the pressing prob facing their in-
dustry. The sugar beet territory was fairly wail
rapresented and delegates spoke with knowledge
and authority of the opinions of their constitu-
ents as to what should constitute the basis for
turther relations with the manufacturers. De-
\ spite the indifference or the manufacturers who
are making it to appgar as usual that they. are
not anxious for acreage, there was grim deter-
mination on" the part of the delegates not to let

the exigencies of the present situation blind them , .

to their rights. ‘On the contrary, the beat price
outlookds so discouraging that many of the best
growers. have resigned themselves to the pros-
pect of turning to other crops, recognizing that
it is easier for them to grow other crops than it
is for the manufacturers to make other products. V
The general sentimentxo/t the meeting was con-
servatism and fairness. The growers realize that
.. the manutacturershave been obliged to yield
~Jdiscards to them and that now they hold the
upper hand and are in a position it they will but
'etickrtogether to force the  to
recognize their rights. In (act, the growers
formulated no plans fer approaching the manu-
tacturers this year, although they arrived at a
luntative‘ understanding sum might be ,

would indicate that earlier suppositions that the
Roumanian surplus would be an . important

source of supply for Europe are no longer ten-‘

able. Great difﬁculty is being experienced in
Roumania, writes Mr. Michaels, in concentrat-
ing this small surplus because of shortage of
cars, price ﬁxing, and governmental conditions.
The corn crop is much below that of 1920 and is
barely sufﬁcient to supply the needs of the people
of Roumania. _ *
Hungaria oﬁicials stated in November that per-
mits had been issued for the exportation of 100,-
000 tons of wheat ﬂour. Later the amount was
somewhat increased. It is doubtful, however,

’ whether this amount will actually leave the coun-

try, as the Danube, the principal outlet, is frozen
over and there is a serious short-age or cars.

The Polish grain crops were much better last
year than those of 1920 and permits were issued
in .the fall forvthe exportation of 60,000 tons of
rye and barley. Little progress has been made,
however, and it is doubtful whether Poland will
be a signiﬁcant factor in the export situation this
year. It is even possible that imports will be re-
quired before the next harvest.

A SUGGESTION FROM TENNESSEE

Em EDITOR: I have Just read your
opinion to a Cass county potato pro-
ducer who could not get 75 cents a

bushel for his potatoes now while we are
paying $2.40 per bushel at the retail
stores here. I do not believe it will cost
$1.65 per bushel freight from there to this
place. Why doesn’t your Farm Bureau
get busy and ship that poor man’s pota-
toes down here?—Chas. H. S‘anford, Mc-

year be written on a 60450 basis, and that each
beet grower receive onehalf of the sugar which
is made from his beets. Mr. McBrid intimated
that such‘an arrangement might m t with the
approval of the manufacturers.
however, frowned upon any plan for a ﬁxed di-
vision of the sugar, feeling‘that they are not
enough acquainted as yet with the difference be-
tween current costs of producing beets and mak-
ing sugar to take an intelligent action looking

, to an even split. It the 50-60 division does not

give the manufacturers the lion’s share of the
proﬁts they are willing to accept such an ar-
rangement, but if itdoes they are not.

The tariff came up for discussion. A letter
was read from Congressman John Ketchum urg-
ing that the convention adopt strong resolutions

 ', Cane Reﬁners vs. Beet Producers

 HE REFINERS of Cuban cane sugar
*5; j and the domestic producers of beet su-
gar have locked horns in a gigantic tariff
struggle. The reﬁners want cheap raw sug-
ar. They make their. money in reﬁning, not

_ in producing. The higher the tariff the high-
er the price they have to pay for raw sugar

' and the harder the competition with the do-
mestic producer. The domestic producer on
the other hand must be able to charge a price

' which will permit paying the farmer a fair .

price for his beets. Otherwise the farmer
will have to close his plants. Unless Cuban
raw sugar is forced to pay a tariff it can be

r, reﬁned and sold for less than the product of
i the beet sugar factories. Consequently our

tariﬂ? 7, making bodies are besieged with peti-

, tions from two branches of the sugar indus-

m» (.try, each seeking the opposite thing.

” -  While a high protective tariff will not ab—
solutely guarantee a fair price to domestic
beet grOWers because they have never had

,—;anything to say about the price, it will put

 the manufacturers in a position to pay a
fair price if they want to. Therefore, the

j domestic beet grOWers should insist upon a
i, Which will oifset the lower cost of pro-

';“"'ducing cane sugar.

 ' 'On the other hand, this tariif should not’

 be too high. At the very best the number of

fy‘jpjeople who receive a beneﬁt from a high tar-
 arc very small compared to those who have

11:0 ﬁnally pay the tariif. Therefore, the exact
{Vinniount of the tariff is the difficult problem

  which the present congress will have to

 struggle.

i"  discussing the tariif question a repre-
v ﬁentatiVe of the cane reﬁning interests writes

  Street Journal that the beet sug-

‘T‘ar  are only paying the penalty/of

 .'pvcr:capfitalization and otherwise would not
gneedthe protection they ask. .He says:

' "The losses of the sugar manufacturers have
not been incurred in operations, but are rather
-due to enormous shrinkage in inventory values.
In this they are no exceptions to other manu-
facturing companies.

“During the past years under one cent protec-

, tion against Cuba, these beet companies, as well

' as those of Porto Rica and Hawaii, have pros-

pered and paid very satisfactory returns to their
stockholders, and with a return to normal con-

HE FORCED resignation “of Frank 
‘ 'Merrick, democratic appointee of , Grov-
ernor Sleeper, was denounced by the demo-
crats of the state as a. price of ‘parinsan-lpoh-
ties. The Business Farmer is a ,ﬁrm believer
in the” principle of retaining good men. in
Chico irrespective of their political faiths,
but remembering Mr. Merrick ’5 defense of
usury, it secretly rejoiced when he was
obliged to give up the reins of hisofﬁce to an-

other and better man.

“I do not consider that $100 is too much
for a banker to charge for negotiating ‘a loan
of $1200”, said Banking Commissioner Mer-
rick three years ago in the presence of Gov.
Sleeper and the editor of this publication.
He was speaking in defense of twelve, ﬁfteen

and twenty per cent interest which was then

and still is charged by some
banks.

The scene changes. Another man is govern-
or of Michigan. Another man is banking
commissioner. The subject is the same,
usury. The editor of the Business Farmer
sits in the Governor’s ofﬁce seeking his aid in
improving the agricultural , credit situation
and wiping out usury. The Governor is in-
dignantp He speaks his mind freely and se-
verely condemns the bankers pwho are charg-
ing farmers more than the legal rate of inter
est. "Banking Commissioner McPherson
speaks: ‘

“There is no excuse for usury in Michigan
and this department will not permit it.
There is plenty of money to be had toloan to
farmers who are entitled to it at the legal
rate of interest. [Show us the banks who are
charging more and this department pwill act
to discourage them.”

Do We Need More Land?

_ OW AND then the question comes up,
“Do we need mere land?” Would the
welfare of the nation be advanced if the mil-
lions cf cut-over, arid and swamp lands were
reclaimed and set to work‘ producing food?
It would not. The bringing under cultivation
of a few hundred additional acres of land
here and there cuts little ﬁgure in the total
production ﬁgures but the adoption of a
large land. settlement policy by a number of
states or the federal government would have
a disastrous influence upon crop prices. We
have learned that it takes only a small surplus
of any one crop to .wipe out the proﬁton that
and kindred crops as well, and the wisest
policy is the one which will prevent that sur-
plus being produced so far as possible. N
Asked if the intelligent use of land includ-‘
ed a policy of bringing under cultivation land
which is now idle because of its aridity or
unsuitability for cultivation, Secretary of
Agriculture Wallace replied, that in his opin-
ion, “it would be just as unwise to bring

.land under cultivation when we do not need

it as it is unwise not to bring it under culti-
vation when we do need it.” f.- _' I
There was a time in the history ’of this _
country when more cultivated “land was ‘ur-~
gently needed. The government gave lavish,-

Doctors.
‘ IFTY-ONE per cent ofﬂ31,115 American
. physicians haVe told the Journal of the
American , Medical Association that whiskey
ie a necessaryagent inthe practice of medi- I
cine. Forty-nine per cent say it is not.

This is a good joke on the medical profes- I
sion. We simple-minded, superstitious, 'pain-
dreading and death-fearing folks who take all
our aches and  to the doctors and pin our
faith to their prescriptions are shocked to.
learn that there is any sham about their
flaunted wisdom. Whiskey has been ‘used
for generations as a therapeutic agent.
Medical science has had ample opportunity to
prove beyond doubt its w0rth or worthless:
neg. But» after hundreds of centuries of '
doping~ their patients with alcohol the doctors
split in twain upon the question.

The truth of thematter probably is that a
large percent of the doctors who voted against V
the use of whiskey are recent converts, and
that as the years, go by and public opinion
continues to assert itself against the. use of
alcohol, more amhmore medical men  ad-
mit their error and accept other agents in the
place of whiskey. Ten years ago the medi-
cal profession was almost a unit in proclaim-
ing the necessity of whiskey and in prescrib-
ing it in certain cases. ' '

Another thing revealed by the reports is -
that doctors are not slaves to cold logic and.
scientiﬁc? ﬁndings, as many people have sup-
posed, but are swayed quite as much by‘their
personal prejudices as are other people.
Without exception, the verdict of the doctors
varied in direct proportion to the prohibi-
tion sentimenQ of 'the localities in which they
lived. For instance, the majority ‘ ,of‘city
doctors favored whiskey, while the majority
of rural doctors opposed it. The majority or,

,A Good Joke 6n the

3 the doctors offtwenty states, most. of. which

are well-known for their wet leanings,~ voted
for whiskey, while the majority of the doc-
tors of twenty-eight states, equally as: “Well.
known for their dry leanings, voted, against
1t. Jersey City and Scranton, Pa, were the

only two cities in the countries where a ma-

jority 0f the doctors voted that beer was a
necessary therapeutic agent. It is needless
to say that both cities in, question are notor-
iously “wet”. ' . ' '

 

The Demogogue

  WHO espouse the popular " cause
are

sometimes called “demagogs”.
When a man assumes to speak for the' few,
but favored, he is held sincere, but when he
speaks for the struggling masses, his motives -

are assailed and’he is *accused of “playing to

the, galleries”,.. or striving for political gain;-
Sen. Kenyon, the fearless leader of the
agricultural bloc very aptly expres
thought in a, speech when he said ‘: p it

I Genesee county farmer gave his
views on consolidated schools
to‘which I agree in every point
raised.
Our papers and magazines are ﬁlled
with urging for a greater commu-
nity spirit, but is there any factor
more conducive to this spirit than
the country school? What memories
of meetings in them come to all of
us who received their early training
there. Will our parents now need
to run to a nearby city or village to

meet their neighbors?

I challenge the Hon. Thomas E.
Johnson to show a single instance
Where country children have fallen
below their city competitors in their
mental, physical or moral standards.
If we can get honest men into our
political oﬂ'ices it will go along way
towards cleaning out this camou-
ﬂage of advancement. -

The amendment in question was ‘
not an amendment to increase salar-
ies of Judges but an amendment to
give the legislature authority to in-
crease them during their tenure oi!
ofﬁce. The people voted down that
amendment» The law which was
passed by the 1921 legislature to
increase the salaries of supreme
,court judges to $10,000 a year can-
not apply to any of the present
judges, but will to their successors.
Had the amendment above men-
tioned carried the.1egislature could
have increased the salaries of the
present judges—Editor.

I WHO PAYS m TAXES?

I sold a (ii-am farm on a connect
the year of 1920. 18th day of December.
Contract says all tam must be paid.
Therefore who pays the 1920 taxes, I or
the party that bought farm?——-G. B., Bay
County.

You do not say who was to pay
the taxes. If no agreement .was
made the seller of the farm would
have to pay the taxes if sold after
the ﬁrst of December. The pur—
chaser would pay the taxes if the
sale was made before the ﬁrst of
December. If the contract of sale
provides who shall pay the taxes it
would be binding upon both parties
to the contract—Legal Editor.

Jim-SOLDIERS RIGHTS

To souls an argument please let me
know whether or not an ex-soldler is en-
titled to the $60 mus out bonus. being
discharged before Nov. 11. 1918r—J. F.,
Fayette, mm .

A resident 0! Michigan at the time
he entered the military service ‘of
the government during the recent
war, would be entitled to the Michi-
gan Soldiers' Bonus, providing he
was not discharged prior to Nov. 11,.
1918.- The $60 muster out bonus
you refer to, must be the amount
paid by the U. 8. government when
the soldier was discharged—O. B.
Fuller, Auditor General.

Miah. l
You can secure a loan from the
Federal Land Bank at St. Paul, by
joining a loan association. The
name and address of the nearest as-
sociation will be sent you by apply-
ing to the above bank. The pres—
ent rate of interest is 6 per cent, and
under the amorization plan you have

War Finance Corporation except
through your local bank. and our“
guess is that your local bank will not
help you get a loan iron: that source.

A list of Wisconsin nurseries is
not at hand, but some of the Michi-
companies are the Prudential,

nian a Sun, Adrian; at Monroe are
the Greening Company, 1. E. Tlan-

A list of apples furnished by Prof.

spector of orchards, includes. Dut-

western, Greening and Wolf River.
The Yellow Transparent and Gideon

‘ are added for home use and a local

market. 02 these apples the "trans—

‘ parent is the earliest and is followed I
by the gideon, duchess and wealthy."

The others are winter varieties.

Peaches are not to be recommend-
ed. If you Wish to try any, prob-
ably none will prove hardier than
the Crosby. It is an early bearer
and of good quality. As it boars
heavily the fruity should be severely
thinned in order to get size.

Your latitude is too high for the
European plums and for the Japa-
nese varieties, except possibly the
Burbank. There are some good
American varieties which have origi-

nated in Wisconsin and Minnesota.

A letter addressed «to the director
of experiment station at Madison,
Wisconsin, or at St.‘ Paul. Minnmota,
should secure information regarding
varieties suitable for your county.

Among the (cherries the Early
Richm.ond, Monhnorency and Eng-
lish Marcello are the ‘most exten—
sively grown. The first is the ear-
 the second is about two weeks
later and is more productive. The
last is late and of ﬁne ﬂavor.

It is hardly to be expected that
pears will succeed with you. Bart-
lett, Duchess d’Augoulenn, Sheldon
and Lawrence are. good .varieties.
The last will keep into the winter. ‘

TIDE MOUTH, THE GATEWAY
F THE EYE is the gateway of'the

soul, then the mouth is the
gateway to health. Too little
attention is ever paid to mouth

cleanliness, sometimes thru lack of
understanding, sometimes
good dentistry comes high. How-
ever, sickness is even more expen-

because "

sive and frequent trips to the den-,

tist are in the end a saving. A good
dentriﬁce and mouth wash will help
to keep away trouble. I am .going
to give you a simple and cheap per-
scription for each, these used twice
daily, with the use of dental ﬂoss
after every meal, will surely help
to keep away tooth trouble. Let the
children be as familiar with' the
tooth-brush as they are with the
spoon. They will thank you later.
For a tooth powder:

Equal parts of rock salt pounded ﬁne
and rolled, mixed with common baking
soda. =

For a mouth wash:

Buy ﬁve cents worth of potassium per-
mangate, cover a silver dime with it and
add to 16 ounces of water which has
been boiled twenty minutes, add ﬁve
cents Worth of glycerine, shake well and
let stand over night in a. bottle, then put
thru a. clean linen cloth'and it is ready
for use. Should be kept in ugh-Les bot-

keople who save all of their money,
often times denying themselves or

thrifty but if you will save every

thing to do because you have been

in the habit of spending all but each

' The banquet put on byline Slim-thorn
Breeders‘ Association Thursday evening,
January 12. in the Kesrns hotel at Lan-
sing, was one lot the 'most enthusiasﬁc
breed meetings ,that was ever held in
the state. The program was arranged
and conducted by President George A.
Prescott and J. L. Tormey, of the Ameri-
can Shorthorn Breeders Association, the
latter acting as toastmaster. , The princi-
g1 speech of the evening was delfvercd

Journal.._Mr. Kellogg. While he dis-
claimed all technical knowledge of cattle.
proved conclusively, that he understood
the fundamentals of} success in m
don with breed promotion work. The
meeting was also addressed by Andy
Adams of Litchﬂeld: Hugh McPherson.
state bank commissioner: H. H. Mack.
or Rochester and S, H. Panghom. of
Bad Axe. '

The Holstein cotw, as usual. occupied
the center of the stage in the dairy di—
vision at Lansing. All soliciting {of are
musineeeting of this association were
well» attended and the’pmgram was a.
meritorious one. The banquet. on Tm
day evenmg, Jan. 11, was attended by

tbsn 150 people.

more The star speaker
at the occasion was D. D. Aitken, of
Flint. There are few men in the state

who are as well equirmed as Mr. Al

to discuss ﬂolstein . past '
present, and to blaze a. trail for the
future,

Hereford breeders made their nresence

felt at Lansing and the enthusiasm which

they showed sugars well for the future
of thcwhitefaces in Michigan: more than
40 men attended the annual meeting and
n deﬁnite plan for future breed primro-
tion was worked out. With a. hustler
like Tom Sotham at the helm it will be
very hard to beat the Herefords out of
all the money.

The Aberdeen Angus breeders of the
state came together in normal numbers
for" their annual meeting and outlined
a. program for the future work in a con-
nection with the state association. One
of the most important actions ‘taken at
this meeting was the appointment of a.
committee on future legislation to exert
an inﬂuence with the next legislature to
secure the» enactment of a law abolish-
ing the scrub sire: this question of giv-
ing the“'dunghill” bull his quietus. in
Michigan, came 1m frequently in connec-
tion with the deliberations of the various
breed meetings at mushy: and ever-y
moment made no in its mm.

tion.--Wm. Kerr, Bay County, Mieh. ,

; You are not “the only one. good friend,
who is struggling with the problem or
alien tongues and customs. Thousands
of English born people have, like your-
eeli. settled in comn'mnities which have
in time become predominatly v Polish,
Hungariam- German or some other for-
eign nationality. We ha found in the

, however. that the average alien - '

who- settles upon the land

guns-e providing he receives the right
kind of instruction and encouragement.
Unfortlmately his churchis not as he a
as it might be to teach, him the language
of his adopted countries. And we cannot
help but feel that our good Catholic and
Lutheran blends are over] 113 a ﬁne
opportunity to‘quiet bigoted criticism. in
not educating their people more liberally
in American instructions. Some of our
ﬁnest citizens are Americanized Poles
end 3. But under present con-
ditions the process of Americanization is
slow and inadequate. I do not know
whether I have ever related the followint
incident in these columns or not. Any-
way, I am going to do so here. As I
stood in a smelly. overcrowded room of
the German consulate at Copenhagen
waiting with a motely crowd of almost
every nationality to receive the German
wind or O. K. on my passport to enable
me to go into Germany, my attention was
ﬁlled to a young woman standing near
whose dress was unmistaknb'l Ameri-
can. Solessayedtoepeakto er. “Are
you from America," I asked. She caught
the word. “America.” and nodded, at the
same time handing me her passport. or
course, I was surprised and pleased to
note that she was from Bay City. Michi-
gn. Immediately. I began to talk to her,

t she did not comprehend what I was
saying. although her passport showed
that she was born in the United States.“
Her.companion explained that she could
not understand or talk a word of Eng-
lish. I was dumbfounded—end mad.
Here was a woman who had lived for
twenty-three years within a hundred
miles of my home town and knew no
English. It didn't seem possible. and
right then and there I began to perceive
the magnitude of the Americanization
{Leblam in the rural districts of my be-

ed United States. I feel that it is
a solemn duty upon every English speak-
ing man and woman to take an interest
in their alien neighbors and try patiently
to teach them the language and customs
of this country. I know of no other way.

NCREASED activity 1| reported by '
dealers in many Inherent lines

g trade in the north, out and --

west; the south, where a protracted
drouth is hurting" the prospective
outlook for crops, dullness is the
rule. The industrial situation is
much improved, many factories tak-
ing on large forces; the general reel-
ing, among manufacturers, every-
where, is one of hepeiulness and cp-"
. timism. Exactly the opposite was
true one year ago when factories
were closing and 'the army of the
unemployed was increasing in size,
rapidly, from week to week. That
there is still much uncertainty is in—
dicated by the wide ﬂuctuations oi.’
the stock market and the conserva-
tism indicated by the size of the
orders traveling men are able to-
get; these gentlemen report an elf-'-
couraging increase in the volume of
trade ever since they started, early
in the spring. The enthusiasm and
hopefulness, evidenced by the sales-
men is, evi-dently one of the main
causes for the growth of the trade.

In late winter and early spring,
the wholesale and retail lumber
trade is one of the most reliabletin-
dicators of increasing prosperity;
that there will be an active build-
ing campaign, next summer, in all
of the large cities of the country,
is foreshadowed by the rapidity
with which dealers in all northern
cities and towns, are stocking up.
Easy money is assigned as one of
the causes of the activity; the same
condition, if it continues, will act
as a stimulant to the house-building
game.

very day, as time goes on, the
etc 1 industry shows marked im-
provement. Orders for steel rails,
are being ﬁled by many of the rail?
roads and many of the motor manu-
facturing industries are taking time
by the forelock and buying steel be-
cause they believe that any change,
in the immediate future, will be to-
ward higher price levels.

Recently, manufacturersand the
trade have been taking a survey of
the general situation in connectiﬂn
with wool and the conclusions, ar—
rived at, seem to indicate a future
supply of this important staple, far

below the "probable needs or the.

world. A report on the actual
stocks of wool in American ware-

houses shows a 50 per cent decline,

when compared» with the correspond-
ing date, last year. The market
has been strong and active, since
considerable proportion 01 the
the beginning of December, and a
spring clip has already been con-
tracted. Mi-l have been buying
wool freely for a long time past and
it is generally believed that nearly
all have large supplies on hand.

As the new year advances, con-
ﬁdence in the future of the stock
and bond market is growing strong-
er and trading, on the New York
Stock Exchange, is broad and active
with more than a million shares or
stock changing hands in one day,
quite oiten of late. Much of the
midweek business on change Was
transacted under intense excitement
resulting 1mm rumors that were
abroad concerning coming mergers
in steel, copper and zinc. The large
volume 0! business passing thru the
exchange during the tore part of the
week ﬁnally resulted in higher call
money rates, a condition that put a
check on buying and resulted in
causing some sharp reactions. The
opinion seems to be that an advance
in all dividend-paying stocks, is
just about‘ due.

veloping only occassionally as a result
of selling pressure. Everything from a.
statistical standpoint favors higher
prices. Latest reports from Europe tell
of the great food needs of the uteri!
hemisphere, and repel-m on the fall sown
cereals are none too encouraging. At
the same time the trade is learning that
the Argentine crop is not turning out as
well as expected, and the ofﬁcial author-
ities are strangely Blow in making their
forecast. But it is known positively that
the crop will not come up to early exa
