It is reported every insurance company, financial institu­ tion and thousands o f individuals holding insurance policies protested to the President, who signed a bill that abrogates a perfectly legal contract, and probably will cause a loss m in­ come to all life insurance companies. Other insurance com­ panies have for a hundred years invested in what was always regarded the safest investment in the World—real estate loans, Today they are nothing more than the Kaiser’s treaty, a scrap of paper. The Communistic regime in Washington is out to strip the last dollar of savings for the benefit of those who.may have been unfortunate in investment, or more likely unwise in their wreckless spending spree, rather than meet their obligations. The President’s signature makes legal a bill that virtually puts every bank and building and loan in the nation on the “ spot," and yet the administration talks of insurance of de­ posits, There can be no connection with insurance on deposits and yet legalize a method in which financial institutions can­ not force payment on borrowed money. There are but two methods open now, one is no more loans to anyone for any purpose, and the other is for society to use Gen. Johnson’s method of “ boycott," a term we admit sounds anything but American. We are evidently approaching the time when we can no longer look to our government to protect civil or property rights. The administration that can and does take away your protection for investment, can and if the notion strikes them will, commander your home or your farm. So­ ciety can do nothing less than ostracize the citizen that Would use the Roosevelt method to cheat his neighbor. Such a citizen has no right to a claim to a seat in a fraternal order, or even a pew in any church that ignores the teaching of the Golden Rule.. ■. . getting on the government payroll?" As a farmer: “How can I purchase his term o f office. thirty cent pork chops cut from three CJer^a1in denominations in the south and one half cent h o e s ? ” The busi- lthat take thelr Pol*tic* religiously THE GOVERNMENT AS A MERCHANDISER Some months ago, in connection with the Muscle Shoals electric development in the Tennessee Valley, Congress created the Electric Home and Farm Authority, to sell electric ranges, refrigerators and other appliances to residents of that area at very low prices and on extremely liberal terms. It is now announced that, for the first time in history, the United States government, through this Authority, has em­ ployed an advertising agent. The announcement says that the program, which started in the middle of May, is designed to sell an idea— greater use of power by home-owners. Space advertising will not be used, at least at the beginning. The government will operate fixed and traveling show-rooms for appliances,. and \vill attempt to create demand for the appli­ ances through booklets, and through work in schools and li­ braries, as well as stores. This* is a promotional program similar to-sales efforts of private utilities which have been ob­ jected to by state and federal commissions on the grounds that the cost of extensive advertising and publicity should not come out o f rate payers’ funds. The question is being asked as to who Will stand the cost; the rate payers or general tax­ payers who do hot even have access to the service? The government can easily become the greatest retailer in the world, in competition with every private store. If it cqn sell electric appliances, it could likewise sell shoes and furni­ ture and sealing wax. It could use its vast purchasing power and credit facilities and tax-exemption to literally destroy pre­ sent-day private merchandising methods—no business can compete with government. Only time will tell how much the liability accepted by the government in financing electric appliances on long term pay­ ment plans, will cost the taxpayer. Looking at the project from the standpoint of sound business, sound economics, sound government or fair dealing toward private business, it isn't particularly encouraging to the average citizen. WHEN SENATOR BORAH GOES ENTOUR Senator William E. Borah, Idaho, persistant foe of NRA .and AAA, announces that he soon Will carry his message to the country in a number of speeches against the alphabetical programs, being fostered by the present administration. The Senator from the first has made a desperate fight against the lf t gs?" i ness man can examine himself and __ . . askr "What percent of my business iBwhop ^Charles Fiske of the Protest- comes from the natural growth o f * » ‘ Episcopal Church, o f which the business and what per cent is coming t ooae^e ami Y aJe members, has to from the nation's pocketbook which » ^ . . abo“ fc tw\ d™ es,_ must be supplied by, taxes through government spending ? ” and the widow might examine them­ selves: “How can I meet this in­ creased cost of living on my meager income that has already been lower­ ed?” The laborer might examine himself: “ I was on charity a year ago limited to • four days a week, now I am allowed only two days a week.” The veteran and the Civil War pen­ sioner examine themselves and say: “ My little pension was cut a year ago and it is still cut and facing greatly increased cost of food products,” The farmer’s examination reads: “ I was fed on promises a year ago and now I am asked to be patient in the face of more promises.” But examine^the steel worker and. coal miner: “We. i.will be interested in reading what the To sum up his state- The aged'ment in br*e* reads; “ It is a dis- ;grace to the nation.” The Catholic Church usually speaks' lounder than any other denomination on divorce and considering membership is said to have the lowest -number o f mem­ bers that have severed martial rela­ tions through the courts. In the pre­ sent scheme of things governmental marriage as an institution must play second fiddle to NRA—the National Ruin Association.

Johnson.” Such is the examina­ tion of “ Yourself Today.”- It gets hot below the Mason and Dixon line and there is no heat that brings’ things to a boil like political agitation. A hosiery company at Harriman, Tenn., had it's Blue Eagle taken away and the plant closed down, throwing some 600 or more employees out of work. It was the only industry in the ]town and the roar that -went up reached into the White house. Gen. Johnson had more concern about the Eagle, than a livelihood for the em­ ployees. The matter was turned over to the Department of Justice but back came the answer there were no grounds for prosecution. The. Attor­ ney General probably was trying to follow the constitution. Johnson says he stands by NRA, if the constitution is wrong, change it. A union organ­ izer caused the trouble, Employees did not want a union and one day the union organizer was kidnapped by em­ ployees and given an automobile ride out of the town and county and told to stay awayi .

The whole nation awaits the first Borah speech against the NRA as an instrument to protect monopoly and crush small business, and the AAA as a means of regimenting the farmer for the benefit of union labor and large industries. The na­ tion’s spokesman will be on the high seas when Borah speaks first but Gen. Johson is at the helm. It is said it took Noah Webster eight years to write the dictionary but out of that list of names Johlfeon needs but two, “ Damn and Hell.” His next line of defense is his “ sword and pistol." At that he cannot outtalk Borah, neither can he use military bluff and get away with it. For this reason it is not expected tha.t wheat will get much out- o f the 75. cent range. It is also certain the government will do its best, to hold down the price, of wheat as the cities now are complain­ ing of the extremely high cost o f food products. For instance 30 cent pork chops out of three and one-half cent hogs. Whole hams are now 20 cents a pound. And yet Washington says there is no attempt at regimentation. There was a time once when this country had a vice president. John Nance Gamer, Texas, D., still holds that title but does not get to work much at the job. He is back on his Texas ranch While the Chief Execu­ tive enjoys a vacation of several weeks visiting other countries. Or­ dinarily the vice president assumes the duties of the President in such a case, butta3 the constitution has been scrapped, the brain-trust uni­ versity professors, have be<m left in charge. In addition a special board o f twelve professors without the “doctor” degree have been named as a special court to pass on what the other “ brain-trusters” order. This special board is known" as the “ freshv men class.” The college janitors will he called upon next for their opinions and this mov get popular approval. The Fourth o f July has come and gone and with it the usual crop of deaths by drowning, fireworks, air­ plane and motor car accidents. First press reports place the number at 115 in the country. Several thousand ac­ cidents took place, some serious and others of a minor nature. Probably no nation on the face o f the earth seems as little concerned about the lives of individuals and willing to take a risk as can be found in this country. MOVABLE BROODER BETTER THAN HEN Affords Minimum o f Labor, Cost, Mortality. WORLD’S BIGGEST GAMBLER Here’s the world’s biggest gambler, the American farmer! He gambles with the weather, with the soil, with grasshoppers, with army worms, with grubs, and a score o f other offshots of the plagues of ancient Egypt. Every spring he takes a chance - - a desperate chance, If he wins, as he does occasionally, he comes off with a big stake; if he loses, which he does more fre­ quently, he has a chance to try again. Happily, he is a good loser, else the world Would starv. Quite a few children wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for the parents they have to live with. Other children wouldn’t he so bad if their parents would stay home long enough to live with them. Employees who are fired by enthusiasm and a desire to suc­ ceed always have a decided advantage over those fired by the boss, „ Whether one considers the world round, flat, square or crooked depends on the part he has bumped against. It Is said a stupid person has no patience with the stupidity o f others, hoses at the bankers. Much has been said in the press and among politicians about the straw vote taken by the Literary Digest as to the present standing of the Roose­ velt administration, Several million ballots Were mailed to citizens over the country. In the past the Digest Vote taken on elections and prohibi­ tion has been a 100 per cent sure shot as to the outcome, In recent weeks We have asked no less than fifty farmers if they received such a ballot and whether they marked one and sent it in. Strange as it may seem but one admitted signing the ballot and returning it. Various excuses have been given as to why the ballot was ignored. Some protested the Di­ gest's part in prohibition repeal. Others felt it was nothing more than a political move for the administra- on. The result o f the Digest vote for confinement brooding.

A movable brooder house large enough to house 350 to 400 chicks at a time, small enough to be moved easily, and cheap enough to be within the means of any poultryman, has proved Its superiority over the hen for the av­ erage farmer as a means of brooding chicks with a minimum of labor, cost, and mortality. Success in raising chicks with the brooder stove depends to a large extent on the kind of house In which it is used. The house de­ scribed is 12 feet square, Is large enough to permit good ventilation, and also to allow the chicks room to get away from the stove and Into cooler air. Success in poultry farming depends on raising strong, vigorous pullets. This cun best be accomplished either by movltig the chicks to fresh ground where there is an abundance of green feed, or by raising the chicks In strict confinement.

There are relatively few potent natural sources of vitamin D, and egg yolk ts one of the most valuable o f these. The studies of the department In­ dicated the diet of the ben and the amount of sunlight she receives during the laying period make considerable difference In the vitamin content of the egg yolk. It was determined that the vitamin, which In human food promotes the assimilation of calcium and phosphorus and thus aids the development of bones and teeth, can be increased In the egg by feeding the hen cod liver oil or by exposure to natural or arti­ ficial sunlight. Distinguishing Sex Experience Is the great tencher In distinguishing, the sex of young chick­ ens. This Is comparatively easy with Leghorns and other nonsitting breeds. At six weeks of age the cockerels of such breeds will begin to show combs and wattles, yhUe the pullets will be backward in head points, but devel­ oped In tails. In heavy breeds deter­ mination Is more difficult, but tlm fol­ lowing method Is said to be successful In most cases: Pluck a few feathers that grow from the saddle around the tall. If pointed, a cockerel Is denoted, authorities say, but. If round at the point, a pullet will be found. It la as­ serted by many that the best way to tell the sex of young ducklings Is by their voices. Young ducks (females) will give loud quacks, but drakes (males) will emit a hoarse eroak.—Los Angeles Times. FRANK A.
