The steers fed on this gain ed more than any olbers. The ra tlon was composed of 22.3 pouuds Only one lot steers lont In weight. This lot wna fed entirely on Biinflower sllnse. After 30 days on this ration Hie feed was changed to pea and bald barlev nllnue m.l Immediately Mro steers begaii to tuIii In weight.

Their prices lately have averaged lower than tho Trust's, but steel prices have been too high, all along the line. For several months they have resulted in loss for nearly everybody concerned, which means nearly evorbody in the United States, Tho steel people have not been making any profit' from plants operating at fractional capacity or closed altogether. T,ho building industry, the railroads and various other indus tries havo been forced to restrict their purchases. The en tire public has paid unnecessarily high prices on every product in which the cost of steel Is a factor. It would have been a blessing if a drastic cut in steel had been made months ago. With steel, just as witii transportation and many other things, lower prices should mean increased profits rather than loss, because of the volumo of business they are expected to create. Even if it were not so, there is expert testimony to tho effect that tho steel interests, if operating normally, Could stand a good deal of price 'reduction without losing anything, They ara to bo congratulated, at any rate, on yielding at last, instead of trvinir to hold out to the bitter end for extortionate winter. th? strs win i r h .,k,j i.. .... ... nennia iilrenl niM'onlr.i-frI liv nenrlv every nt.hor liimi.

THE BARBARIC SPAIN The while paper shortage doesn't seem to worry the editor of a Hart- Lfonl City, Ind., paper, who tells of somebody being "burned by a hot stove.' . One part of the President's message which should not be 'overlooked is his suggestion that Congress should seek some method to "wipe out the stain of barbaric lynching from the banners of a free and orderly representative democracy." His recommendations for investigation and reform meet with gen- ral approval. This is in no sense a stone flung at the South. Lynching has not been confined to southern borders. , It has shown its ugly head in northern communities and on occasions 6f We provocation thud hub inspired sotne1 of : the hasty deads of the South. i i ': Nobody, In 'his heart, believes In lynching. Nobody who has given the slightest thought to the matter can believe that it is.. & cure for any. evil. It. has accomplished no cures thus far, and there is no telling how much evil" in other forms it has aroused. It will be a delicate matter for Congress to approach, but the best element of American citizenry, white and black, will lend its respectful attention and its earnest support to every constructive suggestion. A pessimist's idea of a good timo is to glance over his pile of rent receipts. A Washington (where we were kept out of war) paragrapher predicts that if sugar keeps on declining in price, taking candy from a baby will not be considered as grand larceny. All Wrong.

Indeed, they might be regarded as a blessing, ex cept for the loss 0f life often inflict ed in their course of operations. Not . a blessing to-their victims, perhaps, but a blessing to the community in rcneral. It might possibly be proved, if complete figures were available, that robbers have put mors money in to the pockets of honest citizens- in general than, they have taken out. How? Ily seating people into put ting their money in the bank. The "crime.' wave" from whi.-h almost e ry section of the country has juf. fered, has gone far to rule people of two careless and thriftless, habits carrying laige sunu of money .n their persons and keeping savings or busi ness receipts unprodintivcly m t. fcofnc or. the offu-p..

It is always, of course, sad to sc elderly persons forced to hard laboi at unaccustomed tasks, but somehow to an American, the emphasis hni been placed by the writer on th wrong end of the story. It isn't exactly tragic, from the Am erican, -democratic point of view, t( see people mending boots, 'cooking scrubbing or sewing. The traged; lies in the fact that these helplesr aristocrats were not trained in youth so they could do BUch tasks easllj and well.
