LOOKING AHEAD
NATION'S industrial situa
tion shows itself, as a rule,
in the statements issued by
the banks of the country.
Thus, periods of prosperity are marked
by increases in commercial as well as sav
ings deposits. Periods of readjustment,
with their accompanying problems of un
employment, show themselves in a de
cline of commercial deposits and a slight
change of savings deposits. And as
times become better and the future looms
big with possibilities, bank deposits grow
again and business comes to life.
As we look ahead the best advice that
this bank can give is: "GET YOUR
FINANCES WELL IN HAND.
BUILD UP YOUR CHECKING AC
COUNT. PREPARE YOURSELF TO

President American Farm Bureau Federation.
Chicago, January 29, While some of the shadows of the clouds
of 1922 have passed away and agriculture is in some respects in bet
ter shape than for the past two years, there yet remains much to be
done before we reach a proper level as compared with other indus
tries and commodities.
I am convinced that our greatest aid the past year came from within
our own ranks, and that in the future we shall find self-help our great
est reliance.
Agriculture will not and cannot succeed except through organization
and co-operation.
Agriculture must be put on its feet again and the business made so
attractive that our young men will remain on the farms. That problem
is one for the American Farm Bureau Federation to help solve for the
American farmer.

You Find Prompt and Satisfactory Service Here
No one who attended the last an
nual meeting could help but realize
that the American Farm Bureau Fed
eration was there setting up some
stakes to mark out a straight furrow
for the accomplishment of a few very
definite purposes during the coming
year.
The Farm Bureau poses as a service
organization. Without doubt the
greatest and most immediate service
which can be rendered is help in
more successfully and profitably mar
keting farm products. This undoubt
edly means co-operative marketing
and may be applied to every type of
farm production and thus render a
real service to each and every farmer
in America. There is, therefore, be
ing organized a special department of
marketing in our office here to be
headed by Walton Peteet, of Dallas,
Texn one of the strongest men of the
country available for that work. He
will be ably supported by such as
sistants as he may need.
Successful co-operative marketing
means bringing into play all the oth
er departments of the American Farm
Bureau Federation. The departments
of organization, information, re
search, transportation, and legisla
tion will be called on and used to as
sist in this great work. Each can ren
der efficient help.
This work can only succeed with
the aid of each arid every one of our
members. Let ench one make good
use of the facilities being set up for
your use and stand by it. Let the
slogan for the year be:
"Service! The opportunity, Co-operative
Marketing!"
"So. forward. Farm Bureau! I
am counting on every member to do
his share.
Therefore. Good is available- every
where. That's two. Add up again.
Two an' two make four. So why not
love humanity and find good in ev
erything. There's no mistake in the
figures. The boy that don't like arith
metic don't know what it s for. May
be we need a new curriculum in the
little red school house.
University of Oregon, Eugene, Jan. !
HO. So successful Jtas been the pro
cess discovered and perfected by
Prof. O. F. Stafford, head of the Uni
versity of Oregon chemistry depart
ment, for the utilization of waste
wood in the production of charcoal
and wood distillation products, that
or.e of the two big corporations util
izing this method on a commercial
scale will soon increase the capacity
of its plant.
This company is the Tennessee
Eastman Corporation, a subsidiary of
the Eastman Kodak Company. The
plant, located at Kingsport, Tenn., has
a capacity at present of 200 cords
daily. This will be increased with
the installation of new equipment,
according to word that reached the
campus this week.
Since Prof. Stafford and the hrm
of Boston engineers behind him dem
onstrated that his process was prac
ticable commercially, leading the
Eastman corporation to establish an
industrial center at Kingsport, there
has been a marked developlment at
the Tennessee city. A village, con
sisting of thirty-one modern houses,
was constructed for employees of the
plant. The village will house 155
persons. Besides the construction of
the village, a great deal of construc
tion work has been undertaken in the
plant itself. Prof. Stafford was
Kingsport during the entire period
of the installation of the retorts and
other equipment, and this work was
undertaken under his direction and
the tests were made under his supervision.

She stood knee deep ni snow. Tears
dimmed her beautiful eyes. With
cold-numbed fingers she fumbled at
the catch on her handbag. The quick
eye of John Courtly seeing her dis
tress showed him his duty. With a
look of pity, tenderness and under
standing he approached and inquired
politely:
"Is there anything I can do for

obtained by the Stafford process are
utilised. The Tennessee Eastman
plant attaches its greatest import
ance to the acetone and alcohol
which are used in the manufacture
of photographic films, but the char
coal and the minor by-products find
a ready market.
"The fine charcoal screened out of
the graded material is utilized by
moulding it into briquets," says an
account of production under the Staf
foid process in a recent issue of the
Kingsport Times. "The briquets go
out under the name of 'charketa'.
Tliee charketa are utilized in a va
riety of wuys, A considerable per
c ntage of the output is burned in
broilers in dining cars and hotel res
tuuranU. The charkets have been
found to be especially well adapted
t. the heating of fruit cars, for while
t'ieyproduce an intense heat they at
tie same time produce no odor of any
kind which would destroy the flavor
oi the fruit. In fact, it is altogether
likely that these charkets will revo
lutionize the business of fruit ship
ping." Besides the acetone and wood alco
hol obtained by the Stafford process,
various wood oils are produced which
are imbued witn many commercial
possibilities. A market has been
nd for them in connection witn
their value as preservatives of wood.
Other wood oils are used in the man
ufacture of medicinal creosote, guai
acol and various disinfectants.
Until Prof. Stafford perfected his
process it had not been commercially
practicable to utilize small waste or
mill waste in the crabonization and
ood distillation industries. Prof.
Stafford first began his work on the
University campus in 1917 when he
set up a semi-commercial scale ap
paratus. After he had demonstrated
his process scientifically, he went
East on leve of absence when a Bos
ton firm of chemical engineers made
proposal to back up further prelimin
ary experiments. The outcome of
these experiments was so successful
that the Eastman Company was Interested.
Prof. Stafford spent the Christmas
holiday period in Boston preparing
specifications for other wood distil
lation developments.

Basic Business Facts
of Agriculture Being
Supplied to Farmers
Department of Agriculture Empha
sizing Economic Phase of Farm
ing and Kindred Activities.
Washington, Jan. 30. Establish
ment of shipping-point inspection in
several leading agricultural states,
together with nation-wide expansion
of its market news-reporting service,
have brought the United States De
partment of Agriculture closer to
farmers during the past year. As
never before, the fundamental busi
ness facts of agriculture are supplied
to farmers directly.
The result has been made possible
through the coordination of econom
ic studies in the department covering
each phase of the processes of pro
duction, marketing, and distribution
of farm products. During the year,
the Bureau of Markets and the Bu
reau of Crop Estimates were consol
idated into the Bureau of Markets
and Crop Estimates. The Office of
Farm Economics and Farm Manage
ment was later brought into the group
forming what is now the, Bureau of
Agricultural Economics, thus round
ing out the whole plan of handling
economic problems from producer to
consumer.
Outstanding activities of the bu
reau during the period had to do with
(I) cost of marketing; (2) collection
of information relaltive to agricultur
al competition of foreign countries
with the United States and the de
mand for American farm products in
foreign countries; (3) an analysis of
the economic situation in the live
stock industry and the development
of plans leading to the more order
ly marketing of livestock; (4) study
of fruit auction companies; (5) ex
pansion of the work of collecting sta
tistics of livestock production; (6)
formulation and perfecting of grades
and standards for farm products;
(7) inauguration of a shipping-point
inspection of fruits and vegetables;
(8) development of the radio news
service; institution of a grain-
news service and (10) th carrying
out of the greatly increased activities
under the United States warehouse
act.
Particular attention was given the
cost of marketing livestock in the
corn-belt states. Data on various
phases of marketing were obtained
from 219 organizations which ship
livestock on a cooperative basis, 37
local buyers, and 27 producers who
ship their own stock independently.
The cooperative agencies from which
information whs secured shipped
more than $22,000,000 worth of live
stock during l'J-1, the bulk of the
shipments consisting of hogs. A ser
ies of bulletins each dealing with a
specific phase of the marketing of live
stock through the agencies studied is
to be issued.
Agricultural representatives were
maintained in Argentina, England,
and in the Balkan countries during
the year to collect information rela
tive to agricultural competition of
foreign countries with the United
States, and the demand for American
agricultural products in foreign mar
kets. Two representatives were also
sent to Europe to make an economic
survey of agricultural reconstruction
and to arrange for the interchange
of information as to the condition
and production of crops in leading
European agricultural countries.
Special attention was given the de
veloping oi a service for reporting
marketable supplies and movements
of meat animals, including cattle,
sheep, and swine.
Studip" of orvranirpd fruit auction
companies disclosed valuable infor
mation which is to be published later
in bulletin form. Although fruit auc
tion companies in the larger city
markets handle about $150,000,000
worth of fruit annuully, little has
been known of their organization and
regarding their relative efficiency in
the handling of different classes of
products. Shipping-point Inspection
of fruits and vegetables was estab
lished in a number of states under
cooperative agreements.

THE FEATURELESS FLAPPERS.
E thinner is not to be condemned
per se because she is a napper.
But she is to he criticized because
of the methods -he uses to become a
flapper.
If you mean by flapper an unso
phisticated, innocent, childlike young
!tirl, with the legitimate child short
dress, curly hair, red cheeks, bound
ing spirit, then let nature make the
flapper.
The artificial flapper of today is
disgusting, and to an honest, serious
man he is an object of pity.
She has Used artificial means. She
is using the cosmetics that destroy
her skin, rob her of the distinctive
features that belong to the sweet
girl. She is a featureless creature.
She is an unattractive preson. She
is an object of pity. She is a female
deserving the protection and prayers
of honest people.
The drug store cannot produce na
ture's rose and hang it on the cheek
of a girl. No artificial power has
ever been abie to put the flash in the
human eye, or the sweetness in the
human soul, or the magnetism in thei
human heart. The moving dummies,
the drug store flappers, the cosmetic
females are hideous, pitiable, and
featureless.
The mothers of the country are re
sponsible for the featureless girl and
for the destruction of female beauty.
God have mercy on the country when
the featureless flapper becomes the
social queen.
