Morgan, of New York, hus won first prize at a flower Bhow for raising large violets. Mr. Morgan is also i kale fancier. - V ; Young students in this rapid age must bear in mind that it the time they were written Jules Verne's tales were con sidered .about as tall as the average reader could stomach. ; T)ie werage man has had n terrible time in the last few years trying to figure out tho paintings that our modernists iire producing. You know the kind those weird mixtures of color and lines that mean nothing whatever to one who js not "in" on the painter's secret. The other day a highly modernistic painting won it $500 prize at the National ; Academy of Design in New York. JJut not until it was all ovej' wajs it discovered that the painting had been hanging wrong side up. Judges. -art connoisseurs and visitors had Hover caught on. The artist himself had to point it out. As long lis a painting carries so unintelligible a message that no one notices if it is hung upside down, the average man cannot be expected to get very much nourishment out of it. vlOOR COLLIOCTOU A rule generally recognized and practiced is to the effect jthat debts owed by prjvate business to the government are hot in the same category as debts owed by one business to another. Certain ethics which, govern private business rela jtions apparently iire thrown over)onrd when private business gelations apparently are thrown overboard when prjviite .business deals with the government. The ultimate goat, naturally, is the taxpayer. There is the case of the shipping board administration. Ships built by the government at n cost of $408,062,808 were iioid for H3J62,2)K, of which only $1513,919 was paid in leash and over 00 per cent of the balance is put down in the jgoyernment's books under "doubtful or uncollectible ac counts." ! In the rule expressed above there is a hint of what again may happen in the government's current business dealings with, ill e farmers. The federal farm board has at its final disposal $500,000,000 to finance various agricultural proposi tions, which means that it has $500,000,000. to lend to pri vate business. If return payments are made with the hesi tancy and in the same .manner that marks the debts of the shipping board, a large slice of that $r.00,000,000 will be lost to the public treasury forever and a day. ; Don't blame the borrower or the buyer. Jf the govern ment js a failure as a bill collector, its debtors are little to be censured for proving slow pay. And when the government is an easy creditor it is usually because votes arc in the balance waiting to be thrown to the other, side by a bit of pressure, 'I Perhaps the government feels that patience equal to the endless delays of bureaucratic and congressional red-tape deserves its reward. At any rate we can well afford to lose a big share of the farm fund if it really accomplishes some I'OHTLAXJJ jjvj:stm'K POItTI.ANH, Oin., Nov. 53 (AP) IteppiplH: .JIofjH. loo, till direct: PiUtle, JO; calveH, 5, TotulH for ttwdt approximately: IFoih, MSft: cntlhv. 2fi"a; , calves, :17a: Hlieep, SfifM); caiTH, 112.
