EASTERN WISCONSIN LONG D ISTANE SERMON PASSING THE BUCK Although across the continent, the Rev. Dr. Royal D. Bisbee recent ly preached a sermon to his former congregation at St. Paul’s Methodist Episcopal church in Spokane, Wash., delivering the sermon from Boston by long distance telephone wires. Among those in the audience was his father and mother. Nearly every body is familiar with the above heading.

Un e.is the “ sign’’ is right, he is sure that it will be useless for him i to attempt a crop. The federal department o f agri- , culture has issued an almanac for farmers and this almanac contains a | somewhat serious attack on the ideas of persons who adhere to the moon loro for farming and garden ing. This almanac will have the approval of the modern farmer who has adopted businesslike methods in his farming operations. “ Don’t plant by the moon,” the almsnac aays, “ but get the best seed and prepare the seed bed, then plant when soil and moisture con ditions are right.” Good sense, cer tainly, but how are you going to convince the man who has a moon a manac hanging in the kitche.n? The farmer who plants by the moon sometimes makes out a good case for himself, in spite of the scoffing of experts. He will tell of fine cropt grown when the moon was right, and how his neighbor failed to get a return of the seed when they disregarded the moon. The department o f agriculture insists that the preparation of the seed bed and planting at a time when conditions o f heat and mois ture are the most favorable, with proper cultivation, will insure good -lops, regardless o fwhat the moon almanac may say. Students in agri cultural schools and some farmers may believe that, but it is too much .o expect that many farmers will not continue skeptical in spite of the as surance of the experts. among public ofiic'ais from the highest to the lowest. News items relating to the administration oil scandal were repicte with it. Press dispatches re nting to ex-Attorney- general Daugherty indicated it. Re plies from the lipa and pens o f Port land’s mayor and Chief o f Police, in answer to charges of inefficiency hurled against them oy an eminent Congregational Divine, charged the courts with the dere iction of those duties which the mayor and chief of police accepted and swore to per form. (O f course the words, “ To the best of my ability,’’ are inclu ded in their oaths o f office.) By way o f digression— the mayor joined the Presbyterian church very re cently. In the cowardly attempt to shirk official responsibility for the non- cnforcement o f the law— in Pas sing the Buck to the courts— it is worthy o f passing mention that the judges of the Municipal court of Portland are appointees of the may or, and it is within his power to remove them from office for dere- .iction o f duty. This same power is in the mayor to appoint and re move the Chief o f Police.
