MECHANICAL POWER
FOR FARMERS
The increasing use of power,
other than man and beast, on
farms, is evident from figures com-
piled by the Bureau of Statistics, |
Department of Agriculture.
The number of farms having]
tractors has increased from 5,374
in 1920 to 24,100 on January 1,
1927; the number of farms having
gas engines from 54,607 in 1920,
to 85,818 in 1927; and the number
of farms having electricity from
8,495 in 1921, to 28,074 in 1927
While the percentage of all
farms having power equipment is
still small, the increase during the
p 3t seven years has been almost
five fold in tractors and over three-
fold in electricity.
DEATHS FROM ALCOHOLISM
The published statement of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Com-
pany that there were five times as
many deaths from alcoholism in
the country in 1926 as in 1920 has
provoked considerable outcry and
protest in some quarters while in
others serious discussion of ways
and means to deal with the pro-
blem is under way. While the re-
ports do not differentiate the fa-
talities, or show to what parts of
the country they must be ascribed,
it is not believed that alcoholism is
a very formidable menace to the
health or life of the people of this
section of the United States.
In fact deaths from such a cause
here are known to be quite rare.

Ha, It is the most extraordinary
income ever known to man; no
other such figure has even been
dreamed of before. |
There have been spots where the;
income hasn’t quite covered the |
necessities—but in general, there |
has been work, wages and profits,
for everybody. i
This great American income is
due as much to the habit of saving, |
to the thrift that keeps yesterday’ |
surplus for today’s investment, as
it is to the labor of today. |
Most tax reformers, like those
who heap burdens on insurance | The public should give closer
thrift, aim to penalize the thrift of | tention to the conduct of its public
yesterday that provides the capital |
which furnishes employment and
good wages today. This is a |p
sighted policy which tends to force

Lingerie has fallen away to a
mere skeleton. The vest, wide
brassiere, corset and corset cover
have been superseded by the ban-
deau, which is as narrow as it is
flimsy, and the diminutive step-ins.
Between bandeau and step-ins and
the roll of the rolled stockings.
Milady’s shoes consist of a thin
sole and less upper. If she wears
a petticoat it is of sheer silk usual-
ly shadow-proof in advertisements
only, And a yard and a half of
silk usually serves for a dress.
No doubt the brevity and airi-
ness of the feminine costume of
the day accounts for the fact that
the modern woman can array her-
self all in silk and kid without
bankrupting the nation and over-
working the silkworms.
THE PUBLIC SHOULD
KEEP A LIST
It is wholly consistent for Con-
gress and state legislatures to enact
laws relating to railroad regulation
respecting rates and service, but
when it comes to the detail of rail-
way operation, that is something
which should be left to the manage-
ment. This refers particularly to
legislation concerning number of
men in a train crew, pilots on light

train and similar matters

to interest the public
atter of fact, in a large
or to damaged property, for
the simple reason that the damage
would be due to the carelessness
{ or negligence of the person making
claim. Of course, if the ulti-
| mate program is to have the state
furnish the insurance and pay ev-
ervbody, regardless of their own
negligence, a great pensioning sys-
tem could be built up and publie
officials handling this immense au-
tomobile insurance fund would
probably reject few claims. The
financial burden of such a system
would fall most heavily on the care-
ful automobile driver and the
farmers, who have the fewest ac-
cidents, or on the taxpayers.
To show the freakish features
which have already cropped up un-
der proposed compulsory insurance
laws, it is interesting to note the
bill just defeated in the California
legislature, a commission for inves-
tigating having been substituted.
This bill would reauire every tour-
ist entering a state having such
law, to at once take out an insur-
ance policy. The cost of such in-
surance for a brief stay would be
exorbitant that the majority
would avoid state or states with
such requirements. As the tourist
“erop” is a highly valuable asse'
to many of our states, such a law
would have a direct bearing on the
financial interests of every line of
business in the state. On a trans-
continental automobile trip, a tour-
ist would almost have to have a

safe in venturing from state to
state. There is such a thing as
running hog-wild on so-called pro-
tective legization for the benefit of
the pubic.

Keep Porkers Growing
When the pigs are about two
weeks old they will begin to erack
some corn. Give them some to
nibble on. Also let them share
some of the brood sow’s slop and
grain as soon as possible. Putting
the little pigs on full feed at the
earliest opportunity permits them
to grow and develop rapidly. Then
they will not miss the sow at wean-
ing time,
