A Lot of Wiping
A student of home economics has
.calculated that dishwiping in an
average family is equivalent to
wiping as much space as a three-
acre field. Proper scalding and a
good dish drainer save this useless
work and allows an average of 20
minutes a day of leisure for the
housewife who follows the easier
method.

PROGRESS BEING MADE
The American Agricultural Ed-
itors’ Association took its third in-
ternational thip into Mexico. A spe-
cial train, leaving St. Louis, March
20 and returning April 10, was
chartered over the Missouri Paci-
fic Lines.
Our first stop was at the new
university at Baton Rouge, Louisi-
ana, The commercial and agri-
cultrual development of that state
long ago out-grew the facilities
of the old agricultural college.
Governor Parker sponsored a meas-
ure that provided a two per cent
severance tax on national re-
sources and proposed to build a
complete new university. The
school serves the people well; it
is studying the sugar beet and its
possibilities, the manufacture of
celotex from sugar cane refuse,
and is developing a tick-resistant
strain of cattle. They have helped
farmers to diversify their crops,
and, for instance, the annual
strawberry crop is as important as
their new oil developments.
New Orleans, our next stopping
place, is important as a shipping
center. Its seven miles of river
frontage is equipped with wharves,
cotton warehouses, grain elevators,
coal and ore tipples. Here “ve
found American agricultural mach-
inery waiting to be shipped to
Havre, Bremen, Lisbon, and Beu-
nos Aires.
The next three days were spent
in southern Texas. The progress-
ive spirit of the people there is

of engineering and finance.
