STOPPING THE PAPER.

The old-fashioned man who stops his
paper because it crfticises him lives in
Ottawa and is city marshal. This Is
great joke among newspapers but irate
subscribers take il very seriously and are
estounded to see the paper issue day
after day The fact is no paper pays
any attention to the stopping of any
one subscription. If the general re-
suits are good that is all that is de-
sired. People stop the papers every
day and will,continue. doing so but the
papers continue issuing every day just
the same-Lawrence Journal.

Crop killers are now busy in the
northwest. Soaking rains are sorely
needed there, as they claim. And while
they are waiting for them to come
along they have been successful IN
boosting the price of spring wheat in
the markets. But there will probably
be far different story to tell when the
time comes for the harvest of the
spring wheat in the northwest.

The cost of living ;sthe cause? Sci
entists and = economists, cranks and
politicians have tried to solve the
question, but the people continue to
pay high prices. Certain conditions
come about now and then in the his
tory of nations and all the precautlon
possible and all the explanation can
not alter that condition. It is about
that way with this much mooted ques-
ton. The potent fact is that we are
paying high prices for the necessities
of life. Some people profess to think
we never paid such prices before and
that we will never see reasonable
prices again. That is all buncombe.
prices in other days in this country
and they came down again. We be-
lieve there are many contributing
causes for the increased cost of living.
and one of the chief is an increased
notion of personal necessity to keep
pace with things around US. But the
principal cause of high prices of food
and everyday necessities, we believe, is
the same as makes the oil market go
up or down-supply and demand.
There is an inexorable law of nature
that the cost of thing is governed by
the need of that article, and the sup
ply. Two months ago there was every
indication that the price of Midcon-
tinent petroleum was going to ad,
vance, in fact the market was marked
up three cents a barrel. But just at
that time, between this field and the
new1 created channel of outlet to
greater markets in the south, was sud-
denly developed a tremendous produc-
ton of high grade oil-to supply the
very market this field expected to
bring it relief, and quite naturally the
possibility of an advance here lessen
ed. And so we might look TO some
such cause in the matter of the cost
of living. We are told by authorities
on statistics that in the United States
while the volume of agricultural pro-
ducts has increased 36 per cent, the
consumption of such foodstuffs has in
creased so per cent. In other words,
our population is increasing almost
twice as fast as is our output of food
supplies, and there you have the in
exorable law of supply and demand at
work, and you can not get away from
it. There is now a tendency to return
to the farm, and this is well. The
farmer is an Independent parsonage.
In all this furore of high price discus
sion, the farmer sits in his big auto
mobile and chuckles gleefully. He has
better things to eat, lives better in
every way, has an easier life than the
city banker. The farm; get to it; be
of nature; till the soil, live in the free
open air, sell the things men can not
get along without, sell in the highest
market, and you will have outclassed
the economists and the scientists, be-
| cause you will have solved the great
problem to your own advantage, for
you will be controlling the supply and
stead of paying for it. There is no
patent on this idea, and others are
! entitled to use it.-Independence Re-

FROM OTHER PENS
FARMS AS LIFE

In view of the constantly recurring
calls from economists in all parts of
the country for the people to return
tc the SOIL" it is interesting to know
that living next to nature wards OF
disease and death, although it is a lit
lie more conducive to suicide than l1v-
ing in the cities.
According to statistics recently COM
piled by the government, the principal
factor in favor of the farmer is his
freedom from tuberculosis, due I'M
doubtedly to his outdoor life. In 1908,
for instance, in the Is states covered
by the statistics, the white plague was
responsible for 1913 per cent OF the total
deaths, while only 1876 per cent of the
farmers who died that year were VIC
tins of the disease.
Even more marked was the disparity
in the case of Bright's disease. Only 51s
per cent of the farmers deaths result
ed from it, while it claimed some per
cent of the total deaths. In the case
of heart disease and pneumonia, there
was also a difference in the death rate
favoring the farmer. On the other hand,
owing probably to unsanitary condl-
tons on many of the farms, typhoid
fever claimed more Victims among the
farmers than among city folk.
On the whole, however, the staustlcs
would seem to show that life on the
farm is little safer than life In the
city The figures probably Will not nave
any great effect in stampeddng city folk
to the country. The chances that per-
sons living in the city are compelled
| TO take seem to increase it's glamour
and lessen the lure of the farm.-Wash-
