food value to one acre in wheat.
~ We are shifting rapidly to the ecit-
. Census returns up to the latter
art of April indicate that the farm
opulation has fallen off even more
than was anticipated, and that with
dly an exception the cities have
own hugely. Atlanta has increased
its population 35 per cent in ten years
while Austin, Texas, 48 per cent;
eland, Florida, 130 per cent; Ven-
ar, Illinois, 121 per cent, Phoenix, Ar-
zona, 60 per cent; Lynchburg, Virgin-
da, 34 per cent, and so on. In be-
“tween the farm and the city, howev-
concentration of population, so far as
_intomplete returns show.
A few years ago to own a coal mine
“was to have a fortune. Today it'is
~ hard to sell coal except from favor-
‘the extension of natural gas pipe-lines
0 centers of population and the sub-
itution of oil fuel for ships and rail-
roads.
Ten years wago the radio was un-
snown; today half a million people are
engaged in making, selling, servicing
radios and ‘broadcasting. There are
perhaps as many more engaged in the
yarious occupations incidental to fly-
ng.
How the extension of electric light
nd power lines has brought hundreds
of thousands of workers into new oc-
_cupations in that field alone, and by
nabling factories to operate close to
he source of their raw materials, is
nvertine hundreds of rural villag-
s into industrial centers, is a famil-
jar story. That expansion has not
stopped; it may almost be said to
have hordly begun. 'And every new
step which it takes means another
shift of people from place to place,
of men and women from one ‘sort of
job to another srt of a job.
~ There will never be a complete end

ill to come have ceased. That time

to indicate that we shall ever reach

do, mere voung people will try to do
them than the new industries have
permanent places for. There will al-
“ways be a fringe of the less compet-

does not always mean distress. With

Ships, we, the American people
+ Whole, have a larger cash re-
_ve, in savings banks and life in-
urance surpluses available as loans
‘on policies, as well as commercial
checking accounts, than any other
people in the world. ‘
One interesting fact which has just
een disclosed is that the heavy with-
drawals from savings banks and on
ife insurance policies at the time of
the Wall Street slump last Fall were
not entirely, as had been supposed, to
relieve the distress of those who had
Jost their money in the stock market.
It turns out that these withdrawals
were largely by thrifty people who
ealized that the time to invest in
sound securities was when prices were
t the bottom, and the stockholders’
lists of the great basic corporations
eflect this in the immense increase
the number of individual stockhold-
rs since last November.
Most of us think we want security.
Really most of us, being Americans
and therefore deriving our heritage
from ancestors afflicted with the wan-
dering foot, want adventure. We can
grumble loudly enough when any of
the constant changes in our industrial
nd economic scheme. affects us ad-
versely, but at heart most of us feel
hat we would rather live excitingly in
; America than safely somewhere else.

Phillip Morgan of Kingston, was el-
ected as teacher of science at a sal-
ary of $1200.00. Mr. Morgan is a

recommended and should be a credit
to our schools.
The resignation of Miss Helen Gil-
dea, was read and accepted. Miss
Gildea taught English and history in
the high school and was held in high
esteem by both students and teachers.

FARM CALENDAR
Timely Reminders From
The Pennsylvania State College
School of Agriculture
Give Bees New Queen
Every colony of bees should be re-
queened each year to rid of the fail-
ing queen and to provide a queen cap-
able of building up a strong colony of
bees for winter and spring.
Mulch the Rose Bed
An application of peat moss, grass
clippings, or buckwheat hulls, to a
depth of one inch should be given the
rose bed for a mulch during the
summer 'months.
Train and Fit Cattle
Dairy cattle selected for
should be well fed, fitted, and taught
to lead. Condition and behavior count
tremendously in the judge's estima-
tion.
Pack Fruit Well
Fruit that is packed well will go
through to market in better condition
and will sell more quickly for a high-
er price.
Exhibit Farm Products
Fair time is coming. Alert farm-
ers will advertise their business by ex-
hibiting some of ther best products.
Feed Wheat to Livestock
Cheap wheat is an economical feed
for dairy cattle, swine, and poultry,
say. state college specialists. Best re-
sults are obtained by grinding or
cracking the wheat and feeding it in
combination with other grains. Wheat
is a palatable and nutritious feed.

your batting line-up and I am of the
opinion that in reference to past
games it would unfold a story of why
hits are not made when needed, and
the cause for so many Dallas players
being left on bases. Kindly accept
this in the same spirit in which it
is offered. Yours for a winning
team. A. Fan.”
Thanks, both the management ana
the manager, appreciate suggestions
and this will be published. The man-
ager is a subscriber to the Post, and
will take heed to your valuable offer-
ing.
Parry is considered one of the best
outfielders in the Wyoming League.
He is one who can field his position
and hit well which goes to make a
first class ball player. -
Roche pitched a fine brand of ball
as usual and was not removed from
the game on account of his perform:
ances, but to give Riley an opportunity
against the best team in the league.
Hackling did not- appear for reasons
unknown to the management or man-
ager for he agreed to appear last
week. | His non-appearance nearly
cost Dallas the game for were it not
forgWarble who had some experience
in catching, Dallas “would not have
been able to place a team in the field.
‘We are informed that a new catcher
is -now signed up.
independent Game
The Independent League lost to
Plymouth. Our Chocolate Kid did not
appear in the line-up at the beginning
but when he was ‘called upon he made
himself known, being credited with
two times at bat and two hits. We
were under the opinion that Addison
was to hold down first sack and be-
lieve that manager Owens made a mis-
take in breaking up a perfect infield.
The Wyoming League passed all
through that stage in trying to get a
winning line-up and he should not try
the same stunt.
Barrett, who played first base for
Power House last week, has been con-
tested by Ashley and the game for-
feited. However, Dallas management
assumes a different attitude in the
matter. Barrett did not make good
in the Blue Ridge, so returned home
and secured a position with the Power
House due to his experience as a ball
player. If we were ‘to contest the
game, it might place him in a posi-
tion to lose his job and we do not be-
lieve that any ball team, manager or
owners should take that attitude.
Dallas dropped its second game to
Power Plant by a sc¢ore of 6 to 2 in
a well-played game on Sunday. Riley
made his debut with the local club,
relieving Roche in the 6th inning, and
if his work on the mound is as fire~
proof for nine innings as he displayed
for three innings, he will have no
trouble in holding down a berth in
the local line-up.
