It will come out in the open in 1) due course—gradually, little by little. It will take some time to evolve from the academic to the applied. Governor Earle proposed government ownership of the an- industry. If 5 > » cure for that sagging thracite mines as a possi iis ever comes to pass we wouldn’t be a bit surprised to see m take over all the business throughout the country. He may just as well try to run your business or mine, as any one clse’s. If that happens won't George and his gang have a raft of political jobs to hand out? WHERE'S OURS? We notice by the papers that Manheim received its State appropriation toward its farm show. We've been holding farm shows in Mount Joy for a number of years and we have as vet to receive our initial appropriation. We have had some ng with several ifs, buts and ands. Let's hope ours is forthcoming as we certainly deserve it. There is no better show held in the county so why shouldn’t we figure? FINALLY ADMITS IT We reprint the following editorial {rom a Lancaster Dem- ocratic newspaper: “We hear that the WPA has set up a project to go into the county and count the trees on farms. We haven't taken time to corroborate it but if it is correct, there is just another thing to make WPA ridiculous in the eyes of sane people. The WPA has been and in most cases is a worthy movement in time of unemployment. But it can be made to look silly, is not goed for WPA.” whi TOMATOES VS. TOBACCO We notice by the report of the tomato growers around Washingtonboro they averaged $500 to $600 worth of toma- {oes per acre last year, which again proves: st—Lancaster county can and does grow crops. Second—DBe it tomatoes, tobacco, or whatever else you wish we can produce. T We have the farmers who know how. Fu sre, if the farmers don’t realize more dollars to the acre on tobacco, there is every indication that many of them will go to tomato growing instead, because they are not as much work; farmers get their cash as soon as the crop is ripe and last but not least they are a betier paying crop if judged by the above average. AS IT SHOULD BE A move was recently sta sted and it is now well under way {o open a new road in Mt. Joy township between this place and Florin. We refer to the privately owned road leading north from the highway on the east side of Frank Shatto’s residence, and n depth along lands of James Glatfelter to the for- extending mer athletic field now cwned by Benj. W. Brown. This road will, for the present, have a dead end but it will open the way to present residences and be an incentive to prospective home seekers in that section. A number of abutting land owners would sell building lots which would eventually lead to the development of that sec- tion. hip authorities have been interview- ed and are willing to accept said street. That makes it final and all that remains to be done is the legal action. Another very important step at present being considered is the Bulletin’s suggestion on numerous previous occasions—a sidewalk for pedestrians between here and Florin. If encugh abutting property owners express a willingness to co-operate, an effort will be made to get PWA funds to do the work. If the labor were furnished, the rest would be easy. We sincerely hope the walk will be built before any more lives are sacrificed. FIRE IS EVERYBODY'S BUSINESS Closed by fire! At frequent intervals that happens to American factories and other places of business. Gulted buildings, empty win- dows, a litter of ash and rubbish—these are all that remains of a once-busy enterprise. In all probability, the actual physical loss is wholly or Jargely covered by insurance. But that doesn’t mean the THE MOUNT JOY BULLETIN, MOUNT JOY, LANCASTER CO.

Thus a large fire touches us all. It be replaced, new machinery installed, and men again given jobs. But in the meanwhile, the community has suffered irrevocable loss in wages, taxes ‘and business turnover. Fire is vour business and everybody's business. If you think a blaze that destroys someone else’s property doesn’t hurt you, you were never more mistaken in your life. For all of us pay the bill for fire—and a'l of us reap the benefits when fire loss is reduced.
