THE MASTERS OF
THE MORROW
By Earneit J. Powell
Ever since 1913, vhen he wal
known as "The Boy Lecturer,"
Earnest J. Powell has been thrilling
American and Canadian audiences
with his wit, his dramatic utter
ances, and, most of all, with Ms
earnestness and his love of "ju.U
folks." Mr. Powell believes that
society is sound at the core; that
the young folks aro not all wrong,
However, he does feel that some
grave problems face us, with the
Sift-:!
lot-down following the war, with the
concentration of great mergored
wealth In the hands of a very few
men who dwell In a few great cities.
Does the safety of America still do
pend upon Intelligent, enthusiastic
and humane loadorshlp, and can
such loadorshlp bo dovoloped from
the great Chlcagos and New Yorks
with their flotBam of ideals? Should
it not still come from the smaller
town and smallor city communities?
Powell may make you laugh, hut
It will be that he may cause you to
think upon present day problems In
a serious and yet in an optimistic
attitude.
Is the small town doomed? If saved,
how saved?

Farm Pointers
While many diseases of the pota
to are carried on the potato tuber
itself, and can be controlled by seed
treatment before planting, many of
them are also carried over the soil,
and some live on other plants, says
the Oregon Experiment station. The
simplest way to control the soil In
fection Is by growing potatoes on a
certain piece of land only once ev
ery four or five years. During the
intervening years, crops are grown
which do not harbor the potato dis
eases and also help to maintain the
soil fertility.
Although most people think of
bacteria as deadly things that the
world would be better off without,
that is true of only a few kinds,
while most of the bacteria are not
only harmless but beneficial and ab
solutely necessary in the scheme of
nature. Without them, there would
be stagnation in nature, exhaustion
of the soils, and lack of all plant
food. There is no other agency but
bacteria and similar microscopic
life to break down the dead plant
tissue Into food available for the
new plants.
