FRIDAY, MAY 16,1930 BRAND IS NEEDED IN WASHINGTON Congressman Charles Brand thinks his services are needed in Washington, 1). G., where he can prepare and deliver pros­ perity to the farmers of the Seventh Congressional District. Just at present his services are much in need in another place of similar name—Washington Q. H* With hundreds of. farmers having their accounts tied Hip in the defunct Ohio State Bank headed by Mai Daugherty, and scores of farm owners that will probably see their farms sold under foreclosure proceedings as a result of the closing o f the bank, it appears that Charley should wander back to Washington C. H, and give aid to his old political associate to help keep Fayette county farmers on their feet. Not so long ago at a political meeting ip.Springfield, Daugh­ erty and D. C. Pemberton, the latter a'former lobbyist for Cin­ cinnati liquor interests, drove the steam-roller straight ahead for Brand. Back in the days when President Collidge asked for Harry Daugherty’s resignation as attorney general following the scandal of th^ Tea Pot Dome affair, Brand stood with the gang that held Harry was as “ clean as a hound’s tooth.” Broth­ er Mai stood for Brand in the recent political gathering. Now Mai is in trouble and Charley should journey back to Washing­ ton C. H. and use his method of getting relief for the distracted farm owners in that county that were caught in the financial wreckage. His service might be welcomed in "C. H.” but his absence in “ D. C.” will b,e welcomed not oAly by the administra­ tion but party leaders. ’ Ho has no bills before congress that need attention for they were all buried months ago. PRISON IMPROVEMENT WILL PROCEED It is well that Governor Cooper and his advisors will pro­ ceed at once with improvement and enlargement of the prison farm at London. It is the logical place for such a-prison with plenty of acreage in a good healthy location on farm land com­ prising some 2,500 acres now owned by the state. The cost to the.state will naturally be great but with the continued demand for larger prisons oyer the country Ohio must be prepared to meet the emergency. Prison labor can be used to erect the new .buildings a? has been done at London in the past. With men confined in the dormitory plan' it is going to be harder for prisoners to organize for a mass break as was done a few weeks ago when the old prison was set on fire with that intention. The fault of conditions at the old prison cannot be laid to any one or two individuals. The state has been negligent in not heeding the calls of Warden Thomas for more cell room that men could be held under easier control. A prison is a prison and not intend^ for a play house or a recreation center. Prisoners are entitled to fresh air in fire­ proof buildings and should be compelled to do such labor as would at least partially pay for their board. There should be division between the hardened criminal and the first termer and it has been suggested that the Columbus prison be kept for regulars. There can be no re-construction of the human ele­ ment when it is confined in quarters surrounded by men of the lowest typej;hat are recognized as professional criminals and degenerates. ‘ I BUSINESS NEEDS SOME CAREFUL ATTENTION It would be folly for anyone to state that business over the entire country was in a healthy state. There are times when propaganda can be passed with a good psychological effect but such would be out of place today with factories running on part rime, men walking the streets hungry and even in some rural sections men working on farms for their board and clothing. Farm products are selling below the price Of production but be­ fore they can be made better we all know there must be a better market and this cannot be until city and factory labor is again on the job. •' „ ■ The great problem today with the, manufacturer and the business man is how to keep his overhead expense within the range of present business conditions. The farmer has the same problem but is helpless. All classes are now more certain than ever that cost of government must be reduced not only national but state. The entire country has been overly busy through congress and state legislatures of trying to regulate everybody’s business and imposing increasing taxes and costs of doing busi­ ness. The craze for investigations in congress, some worthy and niany not worth while, along with the snoopers and inspec­ tors provided by states has almost driven business men to dis­ traction. • * . Ohio is nearing the time when a new method of taxation Will be before the legislature! The kind of a tax law adopted will depend largely on the type of men sent to the general as­ sembly. Greene county has-been ably represented and if re­ ports are true Representative R. D. Williamson will again be a candidate. There may be other candidates but farm and home owners must keep in mind that with business greatly depressed there should be no experimentation in who is to be trusted as our representative. There is not the time for fads or frills or freak legislation. Within the past few days canvassers of the female species have been going about gathering small amounts to back a supposed uplift campaign. We have good grounds to question this movement other than a scheme to provide funds to nominate one of the canvassers oil the ballot for state rep­ resentative. Now is no time to have some female politician try­ ing to sell salvation at so much a yard. Business is sick and needs attention. Men are out of employment and must be put back to work before the farmer can hope for a better price for his products. Money is tight in every quarter and with all classes. It is.effecting colleges and churches in work planned months and years ago. As long as business is on its back there can be no hope of relief to other classes and there must be but one issue— restore business to normal conditions and apply the breaks on increas­ ing cost of federal and state government operation.

A ton-litter is a single litter o f pigs which reach a total weight o f a ton or more when they are six months o f qge. The project will he repeated this year in Ohio fo r the ninth time, and after this year will be abandoned so fa r as the adult hog producers o f the state are concerned, it is announced by J. W, Wuichet, ex­ tension specialist in swine production for the Ohio State University. Enroll­ ments are now being completed for the 1930, and last, project. “We feel that the Toh-Litter Club, which has been one o f the most, pop ular honor production clubs sponsored by the extension service, has now ser­ ved its purpose and would soon out­ live Its usefulness it continued," says Wuichet. ' “ It has "interested and guided hun­ dreds o f farmers in the state in adopt­ ing feeding, breeding/ and manage­ ment practices which produce market­ able hogs of high quftlity at a time when they will bring the most money. The principles .which the growers have been applying in producing single ton- litters are the principles which they must follow in managing their entire herds in order to bring the, greatest profits. • "Hereafter we are going to em­ phasize a pork production club which will involve the application of what has been learned in the Ton-Bitter .club, to the entire herd. Ttyis project has already had one successful year in Ohio,” Blooms Belong In Vegetable Garden H4u*dy Flower* Need Two Year* of Culture There Be­ fore Parading in Front Yard Hardy flowers belong in the vege­ table garden for the first two tyears o f their life, urges Victor H. Ries, ex­ tension specialist in floriculture fo r the Ohio State University here. Ries bases his statement on the theory that until the average hardy peren­ nial plant is two years o f age it hasn't attained its full beauty, and is really in the propagation state. It may re­ ceive better care in the kitchen garden than after it is transplanted to its permanent place in the front yard, Hardy perennials are excellent for planting around the foundation o f a eventually surround the house have house until the shrubs which will been chosen and planted, Then the flowers can be moved to beds in front o f and at the foot o f the shrubs. Or they can be placed in beds around the edge o f the yard—there are many good reasons for not putting flower beds in the middle o f the lawn, both for the sake o f the flowers and for that o f the lawn. “ The lawn will .serve as a proper foreground and set off the flower beds to the very best advantage/* says Ries. “ In these beds or borders the plants should be arranged in groups -or clumps rather than in rows,” , F U R N I T U R E REPAIRED and UPHOLSTERED A t Prices In Reach Of Everybody CharlesR.Hornier I PHONE | Cedarville 148 Re*.
