Abigail C'rcsson. SIXTY-FOUR CENT WHEAT THERE are those who smife when told that farmers made no money this year by selling wheat at $1 a bushel. They think it a wolf story, as well they might. But if figures gathered by the department of agriculture are ,r:orrect the dollar received by the farmer for his wheat has been worth only 64 cents. In his annual report Secretary Wallace, head of the department of agriculture, says : "While the prices of many important farm products have ad vanced considerably over last year, this advance has been ac companied by equally large or larger advances in the price of other commodities. For example, the index of wholesale prices of comiri'idities other than farm products was 176 in August thi.5 year (V.V22) as against 150 in August, 1921. "In August and September, 1922, a given unit of farm pro ducts could be exchanged for only about two-thirds (6-1 per cent) as much of other commodities as that same unit would have purchased in the year 1913." , Now 64 cents was not a good price for wheat in 1013. It is even lesn profitable now because farming costs are higher and taxes nuch higher. . The duty of the legislature is to reduce the farmers' taxes by a process of reduction and equalization. The legislators are in clined to do this and to follow the leadership of Governor-elect Pierce. But they have not done it yet and mere good inten tions will get us no where. We are after results. The duty of congress is to take measures that will permit of reducing the price of merchandise and machinery, curing the trouble by imports when domestic competition is curbed by ex tortionists. The present congress has done nothing of this sort but has built a higher tariff wall so as to make it easier for the profiteers to exact higher prices. IN THE TOMB OF TUTENKHAMEN THE promptness of the correspondents in estimating the money value of the latest great archaeological find in Egypt at $15,000,000 was not necessary to prove its im portance in the world of art and in the making of history. Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter, the finders of the tomb, do not assay their find by market values. What they saw as they burst into the burial place in the Valley of Kings were gi gantic beds carved and gilded; boxes decorated in gold and ivory, chairs, wands of office, mummified meats for the dead king in his wanderings through the land of shades, alabaster vases, a throne adorned with precious stones that may be the finest object of Egyptian art yet discovered. An American observer, Prof. Breasted, Chicago University's Egyptologist, saw in the excavation "a sight I never dreamed of seeing the ante-chamber of a Pharaoh's tomb filled with mag nificent equipment which only the wealth and splendor of the imperial age of Egypt before Christ could have wrought or con ceived, and with everything still standing as it was placed there when the tomb was last closed in antiquity. "Hurried plundering" in the past is spoken of, but this must refer to the approaches of the burial chamber, which is not yet opened. In the main one of the great treasure houses of anti quity must have escaped the attentions of a hundred genera tions of desert marauders to yield up its treasures nlv in our 'day. If the .judgment of these experienced men is not at fault, the Carnarvon expedition must be in the midst of one of the most important disclosures made to modern times of the basis of an cient civilization as shown in the arts and religious beliefs of .1000 years ago. New York World. An "awful toll" is the way newspaperrs sneak of a few deaths from poisonous whiskey on Christmas day. It is significant of' the change in the liquor status that a death from liquor is now! a news story, wnereas m years ago such deaths were so common they were seldom recorded save on the books of the coroner and the many thousands who were found half dead from alcohol- :t,ii found no mention whatever except on police couit dockets The trouble with the world seems to be too many statosmVn and too little statesmanship.
