One of the old ballads that men used to sing began like this: Twas on July the twenty first, In eighteen sixty-one, McDowell went forth to meet Beauregard At the battle of Bull Run. That was 90 years ago to day. If there are men or women In Salem old enough to re member the day and the event the Capital Journal would like to hear from them. A good way to remember historic dates were some of the old ballads and songs. Kids don't learn them anymore. Pretty hard to forget the date of April 18, 1775, If, as a youngster you learned "Paul Revere's Ride." Even the sim ple rhymes like "In fourteen hundred ninety-two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue," had their value in the nursery, And In the high literary brackets "Beware the ides of March," when Caesar was assassinated does good service if you are forgetful of dates. And even this, if you like the wild flavor of the early wesl: There was New York Jake, the butcher boy, Who was fond of getting tight. And when he went on a spree He was spoiling for a fight. One night he ran against a knife In the hands of old Bob Kline, And over Jake we held a wake In the days of 'forty-nine. Farm Bill OK'd Of $751 Million Washington, July 21 WP) A farm bill carrying $571,000,000 in new funds for far flung gov ernment activities was approved today by the senate appropria tions committee. This is nearly $35,000,000 more cash than the house voted although Senator Russell (D., Ga.,), said the committee ordered 10 per cent reduction in per sonnel requests by the budget bureau. The bill as it goes to the sen ate authorizes $262,000,000 of loan authority to help farmers install rural electricity and tele phones, or to become farm own ers instead of tenants. This is $10,000,000 more in loans than the house allowed. Other spending authority, i eluding use of some $172,000,- 000 of customs funds, will push the total agriculture outlay to about $1,400,000,000 for t h year that began July 1. Russell said the committee ac cepted the theory of a personnel cut urged by Senator Ferguson (R., Mich.) by lopping off $8, 229,235 of budget requests to pay salaries of agriculture workers. He said the department now has 58,780 employees but it is uncertain how many, if any, would have to be dismissed. The budget requests called for some Increases. Recognition to Theo.
