NEBRASKA is RECOGNIZED BY
CHILD LABOR AUTHORITIES
RydeF's Protest Against Impractical
Methods in Convention f. Pdt
Into Operation.

At the last convention Of the National
Child Labor committee, held in Chicago,
former Labor Commissioner Ryder. a dele
tate from Nebraska, protested against the
impractical, time-wasting method followed
in making up the program. Long papers
we're read on the peculiarit!es Of state laws
with which all were fairly familiar, with
no time left for discussion Of means and
methods.
During the present week Mr.. Ryder and
other Members Of the organization have
received notice OF the meeting to be held
In Boston January "a, IA and 10. 1910, which
contains this significant paragraph:
We plan 10 make this meeting some
thing OF a departure from our former ses-
sions, in that we sfaIl devote nearly All
the time TO informal discussions Of the
various difficult problems that arise In
state and local work, instead OF consuming
1t In the presentation OF formal addresses
and tho reading of written reports"
AS the Nebraska delegation has thus
practically been recognized as haying Sc
cured the adoption Of a new deal for the
national injecting OF anti-ohild labor advo-
Gates, It ic urged by owen Lovejoy. ma
tional secretary. that the state should be
strongly represented at Boston. The Ne
braska committee soon will take up the
matter Of securing the attendance OF sew

ovation into a rapid Increase in both. The
problem can be stated simply, in the
three terms that It involves: Population,
occupation and food supply. These cover
the whole Of II.
Population and Crops.
1.-THE population of the United States is
now not far from 10000, 600! For con-
venience we may use that figure. 1t in
creases by from 1900, 900 to 2,25O,OOO an
nually, according to prosperity and i'm
With a practically fixed birth
rate Of 156, Of course the additions from
that source grow annually numerically,
while immigration has brought us from
75o,O0O TO 100000, Of new Inhabitants every
year since 1902. This will not decline per-
manently while the United States main
tains It's high wage rate. Hence it is
probable that our population will reach
middle Of the century.
"A reliable. estimate may be expressed
in terms OF wheat, the great food staple
of the highly civilized races. This coun-
try raised 664, O00,O 900 bushels of wheat in
1905. The average for the asst ten years
has been about $40, 900, 900. Our consump-
ton per capita has been about six and
one-half bushels. 1t is increasing, with
the rising standard Of living, and there
is good authority for saying that it, is
probably now not far from seven bushels.
II that be true. wheat production sdnd
consumption, on the average, are just
about balanced IN the United States to-
day. II that be true, In a little more
than a generation, even though higher
prices should raise our total product above
the present figure, we shall be looking
abroad to see where we can buy, and
bordering at home how we are to pay
for IL.
RnfRIinE OFF Public Lands.
Area is inelastic. Our public lands
are mainly exhausted. A few more years
will see the last Of them. And. lest
they should not be squandered quickly
enough, we not only offer them to every
body under conditions that invite and re-
ward fraud, but when the government

proportion of these cattle, horses and hogs
are the Indirect product OF your corn
fields. While these facts demonstrate the
great prosperity of Nebraska and the
solidity OF her wealth, similar statistics
nay be cited from most of the states of
the corn belt. Wheat, corn and cotton
are the three main pillars supporting the
structure Of national industry and national
wealth.
Defines His Position Explicitly.
Whenever the relation Of food supply to
population, the effect Of choice of occupa-
ton and trad and standards Of living
upon the future maintenance of the nation
are considered, a surprisingly large num-
Der Of well meaning people set down the
Investigator as an alarmist. He belongs,
they say, with the followers Of the dis
NAL doctrine Of Nautilus. that men must
some day choose between preventing the
birth OF additional human beings and
seeing them die OF starvation. Since this
stupid mistake seems 20 easy and so COM
mon, l refer to It early and explicitly.
THE true statement OF the broad general
fact which 1t is most desirable that every
one should understand is this. That this
country cannot feed the population on
which it must necessarily have within
comparatively few years, II it does not
change it's agricultural methods. The en-
phasis is all on hat conditional clause.
Germany, which sets the pace for the
world in commercial expansion abroad and
Industrial activity at home, has 300 inhab-
itants to the square mile. There are less
than 80 per square mile in the whole United
states. 1t could support 100 to tha square
mile as easily as any country in the world.
Some Of our states already have over twice
that many. But no such population as this.
none such as we must inevitably expect in
the United States by the middle of the
present century, can be maintained unless
we improve and keep on improving our ag-
rlcultural methods,
I'VE cannot support our coming popula-
ton upon the crop yield per acre that now

ceeded the price In 1908. Although most
foreign peoples nave had to be educated
to the value Of American corn as a food
product, It is now an important Item Of
our foodstuff exports.
Corn of High value.
For a period or five years, from 1897 to
1901, we sent abroad from IT'S, 100000 to 2O0,-
600, 900 bushels annually. And although that
export has fallen to IS, 100000 bushels in
1908 and 100000 bushels in 1903. it is not
because corn has lost value in other mar
kets. II is being consumed at home more
largely because Il IL convertible into other
forms OF food 1t Is marketable In the
shape Of cattle and hogs. Indirectly IL
furnishes to the food supply. the meat
ration, just as wheat gives the bread ra-
ton. The two cereals reinforce each other
in any estimate OF the resources Of a
country and its capacity to, support popu-
lation.

ness the Phenomenon
Astronomers are Now Closely Watch
ing the Planet Which is Approach
ing the Earth.

a complete occultation Of the plan
ct Mars by the Moon occurred in the
eastern heavens Wednesday evening
near O'Clock. and was watched by
many Marion people with much in
terest The astronomical event was
quite unusual In many ways and had
been looked forward TO for some time
by persons interested in such phe-
nomena.
The occultation was a complete
eclipse and was plainly visible to the
naked eye. although 1t became much
more interesting when seen through
an ordinary opera glass. The moon
passed between the earth and the
planet Mars completely obscuring the
planet for almost an hour Shortly
after Z o'clock as the planet could be
plainly seen by the side of the Moon
II appeared as though there would be
q collision, but as the plant was
more than 35,000,000 miles beyond
the Moon 1t is not probable that any
such collision was recorded. BY Q
o'clock the occultation was over. The
phenomena proved very interesting
and unusual.
On September II, the planet Mars
will be the nearest TO the Earth that
Il has been in seventeen years and
in fact Il is said that IL will be the
nearest that it has ever been. At that
ime it will be only 36,000.000 miles
away from the Earth and at this
time astronomers hope TO be able 10
know whether the planet Is inhabited
Local persons who were unable to
tell which planet was Mars and the
one about which has been so much
discussion, were able to know the
planet last evening before and after
the eclipse. II Is distinguished by
its fiery red color.
