ENCOURAGEMENT FOB THE
FARMER.
Autocaster Service.
THE most encouraging sign of the
times we have seen, so far as the
farmer is concerned, is the estimate
of the U. S. Department of Agricul
ture that the Winter wheat crop
will be about 42 percent less than
last year and 17 percent less than
the average of the five-year period
of 1924-28. In those years the aver
age production of Winter wheat
was 551 million bushels. Last year
the farmers of the nation produced
787 million bushels. No wonder
wheat prices stayed down.
This year there will be only 458
million bushels of Winter wheat to
supply the market's needs. That
will inevitably result in a better
price, probably a profitable price,
for those who have it to sell. Near
ly 14 percent of the lands which
have been devoted to wheat grow
ing were not sown for this year's
crop. Drought in the Great Plains
area is largely responsible for this
fact, however, rather than intelli
gent foresight on the part of wheat
farmers.
The importance of anything
which will tend to give any con
siderable part of the nation's farm
ers a better price and a larger pro
fit extends to everybody. Not every
farmer is a wheat grower, by any
means. But wheat is one of the
five great agricultural staples the
others are corn, cotton, tobacco and
potatoes upon which the prosper
ity, not only of the farmer but of
the whole nation, depend. There
has been overproduction in all of
these for the past two or three
years. Growers have not received
enough to enable them to buy the
commodities they need. That is true
of almost everybody else, and the
vicious circle will not be broken un
til some large class or group finds
itself with some surplus money to
spend.
If the Winter wheat growers get
' a fair price for their crop, as pre
sent indications suggest they are
likely to, that may be the one thing
needed to start the public to spend
ing money again instead of being
afraid to let go of a penny. And
that will start us back on the road
to prosperity.
racketeers and gangsters. I
Under those old laws, any person
known to be an habitual violator of
the laws, whether convicted under
the rules of evidence or not, could
be declared an outlaw that is,
without the protection of the law.
It became the duty of every citizen,
then, to kill such an outlaw on
sight His property was forfeited
and his family prohibited from car
rying on his name.
That was an effective means of
dealing out summary justice. It
has been used in the United States
more than once in the past century
and a half. The suggestion will
make the tender-hearted shudder,
but so did the kidnapping of the
Lindbergh baby.
We think the time is here for the
tightening up of the criminal laws.
As long as crooks can corrupt leg
islative bodies and courts, they will
continue to flourish and imperil the
lives and prperty of honest men.
We think the taxpayers are paying
too much now for the board, and
lodging of prisoners in Jails. We
think it might be a good idea to
consider the more effective and ec
onomical way of ridding the nation
of known criminals by declaring
them outlaws.

MARY A. NOTSON. Reporter.
The Harrisburg, Pa., Patriot has
this to say about the proposal of
the wets to end hard times by le
galizing beer:
An illustration or the panicky
state of mind which has inflicted
some Americans is the advocacy by
some bankers of 3 per cent beer as
a cure for world economic distress.
Nothing but muddled thinking
would permit men in conspicuous
financial position to harbor such an
absurd idea.
"In the first place the suggestion
that President Hoover could pro
vide intoxicating beer by official
proclamation is so mnch prattle.
The Constitution gives him no such
power and even if he had a mind
to do it, he would be conscious of
its impossibility under the Constitution.
"But if that is not enough to
brand the beer idea childish, then
conditions in England and Ger

economic distress is incomparably
worse than in the United States,
yet in both these foreign nations
beer is plentiful and flowing, yet all
its plentifulness and all its flowing
have done nothing to end or amel
iorate the industrial depression
there.
"The people of this country have
sense enough to know that such
foolish proposals will not get them
out of the industrial ditch. They
know if they think a minute that
the world is going through the af
termath of the .greatest and the
most disastrous war in history, a
war in which millions of men and
billions of dollars' worth of prop
erty were destroyed utterly.
"For such cataclysms there is a
price to be paid and the world is
paying, must pay it nefore it can
swing into the sunshine of better

sound and promising. It faces an
issue and cannot dodge it. It is
tightening its belt in good spiri
and is looking ahead. To have
lot of wet propagandists cloud the
sun with the ridiculous vapor that
hard times can be ended by beer is
only making industrial recovery
more difficult. It is truth and
courage, not heresy and hysteria,
that the country needs today,
The proponents of the initiative

are manifestly dishonest in their
proposition. If they really believed
that prohibition should be done
away with, they should have asked
for the repeal of the two amend
ments to the constitution which
prohibit the manufacture, sale and
importation of intoxicating liquors.
They have simply proposed to
cripple law enforcement and make
it more difficult for every officer of
the State to live up to his oath "to

ABRAM'S GENEROSITY TO LOT.
Genesis 13:5-15.
Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D.
In ordinary times the old saying
is true: "Money makes money,
Certainly at all times it is a fact
that sheep make sheep. It was so
in the case of Abram and Lot his
nephew. They had goodly herds
when they left Haran in Mesopot
amia and the animate kept on mul
tiplying until both men were cattle
owners of real consequence. The
ever increasing animals brought
the problem of sufficient water and
grazing places. The herdsmen of
each owner became Jealous for the
charges under their respective care
and began to contend over the open
pasturage.
Uncle Abram, like many uncles
we know, was a truly big man. He
loved his nephew and felt a keen
responsibility for his care, and Lot
often needed Just that help. It was
noble of the older man to say "Let
there be no strife." Harsh words
must be faced after they are spok
en and years are often required to
overcome the scar that is made in
a moment of lack of self control.
Mindful of the great open country
Abram proposed that there be a
separation of the flocks. A good
bit of fresh air will stop many from
quarreling and even a brisk walk
around the block is a seditive. Op
portunity for first choice is gra
ciously given by Uncle Abram to
nephew Lot and the selfish younger
man chooses the better portion. As
they looked toward the Jordan val
ley the fields seemed greener there.
Yes, and so was Sodom, with all
of its profligacy which evidently
had become a place of recreation
for Lot Certainy they were not Je-
hovahmen there and Lot endanger
ed his moral and spiritual life by
heading in that direction.
It may have been because Abram
was disheartened at this evident
selfishness on the part of Lot. Right
then Jehovah gave a wonderful
compensation In a renewal of the
vision and promise which pledged
a transcendent future.
support the Constitution of the
State." Every honest wet who
rates himself a good citizen should
vote against this subterfuge, this
dishonest trick, which will appear
on the ballot in November. As long
as prohibition is in the Constitu
tion, it is incumbent upon officers
to try to enforce it, but without the
statutory machinery provided by
the laws which this initiative meas
ure proposes to repeal the task
would be exceedingly difficult.
Bullish Price for Wheat
Effect of Weather Report
Weather markets definitely ruled
wheat prices this week, creating
nervous, uncertain situation, with
prices working gradually toward
higher levels, says Portland Grain

Thore is no doubt that there has
been considerable damage to the
crop resulting from severe winter
killing which rain will not repal

in Kansas, Texas and Nebraska Is
slowly bringing a realization that
a sensationally bullish situation has
developed. The financial situation
has Induced a pessimism that has
overshadowed the prospects of
higher wheat prices.
The visible supply in North
America is more than last year.
but the increase Is accounted for
mainly by larger stocks of farm

TO SMOKERS
Men WILL smoke. As proof, see
the sky-scrapers built by profits on
short smokes." It is my purpose
to talk sanely on the subject of
the universal habit; it is the mighty
small minority these days who
don't consume in one way or another.
The safest, best smoke, say what
they may is with the properly-
groomed tobacco-pipe. Bear in
mind, I'm not a propagandist I m
a family doctor today, employed by
myself. To serve my people.
It s like eating-T-smoking is; the
slower you eat or smoke the less
the danger of overdoing. It is the
fast eater the rapid smoker that
goes "hay-wire" from excess. One
naturally smokes the pipe with
more deliberation than he would a
cigarette or cigar. The fellow who
smokes three when a wise man
would consume one, will go to
pieces just three times as quickly
as the deliberate smoker; I know,
for I've seen them do it.
The inhalation of imperfect-com
bustion gases works havoc with the
smoker's nervous system; not nico
tine in one case out of a hundred,
The fast smoker pulls carbon mon
oxide, a deadly gas, into his respir
atory tract the homeopathic dose
gets results in time most surely,
and nerves go to pieces from Its
effects.
Hence the advantage of the long-
stemmed pipe, smoked with proper
deliberation. Even a good cigar
should last almost an hour and its
wet end shouldn't be clung to as
some would have it your nicotine
if any is in that wet end. Throw
it away.
Smoking should be an act of lei
sure. Always. Under its influence
the mental processes flow more
smoothly, and brain-fag fades away
more quickly. I must say that it is
better to smoke not at all, than to
abuse the treat the privilege, by
debauching it The evil or good of
smoking depends on how it's done.
