in establishing its free ice fund, that there are

no lawyers, and no courts. There will
be no alcoholism and no drunkenness
with their attendant evils, because lit
is overwork and small pay that makes
drunkards and criminals" Thus the
Socialist sees everything from an
economic point OF view, forgetting that
after all we are still the same stumb-
ling and weak pore critters as Wild
OW Bedott said. Does this not seem
like those dreams which are the chill
dren of an idle hour begot of nothing
but fantasy?"
And this is the promise offered by
the late Prof. Kelly Of Columbia Uni
versity in his book called twentieth
Century Socialism,; What it is; What
it is not; How it will come"
Perishlng Dreams.
According to Prof Kelly the triumph
of socialism will bring us to a condi
ton promised in the old hymn
"There'll be no sorrow there" This is
a consumation devoutly to be wished
and every man should help it on.
Dreams and ideals have been power
full agencies in human progress. Some
dreams have come true; thousands
have persisted. Among the perishing
dreams the vast majority have been
based upon perfect human beings.
Young men have had visions and old
men have dreamed of ideal common
wealths," such as Plato, Lycurgus,
More, Bacon, Companella and Bellamy
have imagined. Among dreams that
have come true are the practical eff
fects of the declaration Of independ-
ence; the elevation of woman from
low state of slave drudge to the mod
ern conception of one woman and one
man in a state Of homogeneous mar
riage; the modern idea of no class be-
fore the law, the protection of anil
mails; the abolition of human slavery.
Dreams that never come true are
those that do not go with the great
evolutionary streams of progress;
those that reverse and go back to
what is called the natural state" by
Rousseau; those that put a pastoral
or agricultural condition of an earlier
time upon an industrial system of our
time; those that try to put new wine
into old bottles.
Abolish Money.
The first step, says Prof. Kelly, to
bring about the socialistic millennium
is to abolish money. This was the idea
OF Lycurgus long ago, and the apostle
said the love of money is the root of
all evil. In the place of money he
would issue orders on state depart
ment stores. Instead of reading "paya-
BILE in gold or silver" or good for one
dollar in gold" the. script would read

The Palladium Free Ice Fund

You have all been sweltering in the heavy
heat
All of you, however, have not suffered alike
Some have sought the cooling breeze of the
swiftly moving automobile. Others have en-
joyed the comfort of the electric fan as they Ian
guidy slipped cool, refreshing, iced drink
And the little ones, the babies-they have all
suffered, but not in the same degree.
Some clad almost in birthday clothes, have
lain in a shady nook on cool lawn. Their little
bodies have been literally treated with talcum
powder to soothe away fretting perspiration and
minimize the chance of heat eruptions of the
skin. A watchful mother secured in her leisure
or a faithful nurse, provided for out of the fam-
ly abundance, has lowered around and watched
over the little, helpless charge. The milk has
been more closely guarded against contamination
than is some sovereign shielded from assassina-
tons through poisoned viands. Carefully select
ed from the best and cleanest dairy it has been
kept sweet and pure in a literally ice stocked re-
frigerator.
And the invalids, whose suffering is so in
tensified by stagnated, hot days-some have
Jared better than others.
Cool, clean bed linen the sick rooms air
stirred into motion electrically, plenty of loving
attention as well as scientific nursing, ice with
drink more enjoyable--their's is almost a va
cation.
But picture the others.
The invalid whose infirmties have interfered
with earning power and opened the door to the
debt wolf Unable to buy attention, yet proba-
bly, nursed by her who promised for better or
worse and uncomplainingy tastes the bitter
Body ravaged by fever, tongue parching from
thirst, no ice in the refrigerator-may be not
able to own such necessity. That's no vaca-
ton. That's He'll on earth.
And the babies of those others, just as pre-
cious and dear to their mothers hearts as the
little ones into whose mouths fate thrust golden
spoons--they suffer dreadfully these hot, muggy
days.
Their little bodies blotched in heats red few
cred, suffering, indoors ON bed; unresting un-
attended-mothers so busy and can't hire help

Prof Kelly defines the bourgeois
class as those who have property eth
er in house, store. factory or farm. and
who employ servant. clerk, a farm
hand or u bOokkeeper He defines the
'proletariat." as Il class which owns no
property OF any kind and employs
neither servant. clerk. bookkecper or
farm hand. He proposes to transfer all
political power from the labOrer who
has earned a home. a farm or bust
ness, and thereby employs helper Tor
his wife. or a clerk or a farm hand in
his business. over to those who have
made no advancement in life. No Won
der socialism means that the industri
Gus and thrifty shall divide up" with
the idle and wasteful. That is just
what Prof, Kelly proposes and ii is
what the Anarchists Socialist kropot-
kin proposes also.
On behalf of American socialism
Prof. Kelly also says:
The capitalists are in possession OF
the army, the navy, the police. the mil
tia, and, above all, the weapons with
which to arm all these. Recourse to
bullets seems unnecessary and dan
gerous when our enemy has bullets
and We have not"
A Policy of kill"
Here he calls the capitalists our en-
envy" So every man, laborer, com
mercial man or farmer who employs
anyone is the enemy of the employed,
and the employed would be fully justi-
fed in killing off the police, and Our
enemy" the employer, if the "proletar-
lat" only had the bullets.

haven't a single prejudice against any
party that is honestly trying to make
this life better worth the living. II So
cialism can bring about a better civil
lization, then Godspeed. With the de-
sire of many honest Socialists to raise
the standard of comfort for all l am
in hearty accord, but l can't believe
that the creation of imaginary classes
and then arraying them one against
the other. thereby fomenting rancor.
hate, prejudice and a desire to destroy
life and property can ever elevate a
people.
When class was arrayed against
class in the French revolution. and ev-
cry guarantee of personal liberty was
swept away, then arose the Tribunal
of Accusation. To be suspected OF be-
ing bourgeois" or anything but a
"proletariat" was to be guilty. With
every court destroyed, with all the
powers of government transferred to
the rabble and scum of Paris, nothing
could prevent the Reign of Terror.
This is a prospect that every patriotic
American must look upon with horror.

COUNTING THE COST
IL It Worth While to Follow the Ex.
ample of Large Corporations in
Studying Efficiency?
By L. E. Goodyear

National Crop Improvement servics.J
The correct computation of the
cost of production is at the bottom of
farm profits. 1t takes only a little
time to enter costs when they occur,
and finally to compute them. When
this is done, the farm manager knows
the cost of what he sells.
Almost all farmers and business
men do more or less improbable
work because they are not sure of
their costs. When they know they
quit the Improbable work, and do
profitable work.
An accountant some time ago an
nounced that he could show the rail-
roads Of the country where they were
wasting 100000 a day. Instead Of
telling this accountant to mind his
own business (the old-fashioned way
for disposal of ideas), the railroads
asked for and got his ideas, and are
already making more money.
Unquestionably the farmers of the
country could gather millions of
added profits if their attention were
localized on the matter of computing
exact production cost. SIC worth Of
time and few cents worth of cost
sheets will show farmers. opportuni-
ties worth all the way from hundreds
to thousands of dollars.

Ninety per cent. Of the losses from
disease among hogs are due to
cholera, but other diseases are often
mistaken for it. This sometimes
leads owners to, blame serum because
they have used it without benefit.

results- from feeding hotel and restat,.
rant table refuse containing large
quantities Of soap. The soap causes
severe Inflammation and il or other
irritating substances produce symp.
toms much like those of cholera. .
Worms cause troubles mistaken for
cholera BY multiplying in the lungs,
causing irritation. stopping the air
passages and giving rise to q cough
and pneumonia. The animal becomes
unthrifty and loses flesh but does not
die quickly or show the other charac.
teristic symptoms of true cholera.
Worms in the intestines cause
diarrhoea, dizziness, and lack of thrift
but their presence can usually be de-
tected in the droppings.; Cholera is
not present if the animal does not
show the other. symptoms, including
fever, redness of the skim, and sudden
death. When worms are present the
appetite remains good. Loss of appe.
tite is usually an early symptom of
cholera.
tuberculosis rarely runs a rapid
course in hogs and should not be mis-.
taken for cholera. 1t occurs most
frequently among hogs fed on slaugh.
ter house refuse, creamery or other
skim milk containing tubercle bacilli,
or those following cattle.
1t in doubt as to the presence of
cholera have competent veteri.
marian examine one or more of the
dead hogs, but do not expect serum
to protect against any of these other
diseases. Hogs entirely immune to
cholera may die from one of these
other troubles.-H. P. Hoskins, AS

THE LAND SINISTER.

National Crop Improvement Service
Farm, Stock and Home, says: "The
way to get the shyster is to put the
real estate business under the super.
vision Of the state, and require of
the dealer bond for the Performance
Of his contract. The time has gone
by when the legitimate business can
longer afford to tolerate the land
pirate"
Another, and we think the best
way, 10 to list and advertise all real
estate with the Farm Bureau and
handle only such lands as have the
price guaranteed for one year. The
Real Estate Committee has another
great duty to perform and that is to
see that the settler is not strapped
before he gets a crop.

The mere; separating of weed-seeds
and other foreign objects from small
grain should not be regarded Is the
single benefit derived from the use Of
the tanning mill. Z 81.
Clean grain will present much bet
ter appearance on the market, and also
command higher price, since it actu-
ally delivers more pounds of good, pure
grain than does like quantity of un-
cleaned grain.
Uncleaned grain contains more dust
and other non-nourishing material than
most farmers suppose, and the fan
ning-mill removes these, making the
grain actually healthier for stock feed
ing purposes, and consequently better
adapted to nourishing and developing
the tissues of the body.
Grain that has not been cleaned BY
the tanning mill, but fed to the stock
just as it comes from the threshing ma
chine, will pass through the animals
with part of it remaining unchanged,
and where there are weed seed i'm
purities, these are transported back to
the fields in the manure as it is hauled
and spread for fertilizing purposes.
Many of these seeds do not have their
terminating qualities impaired by pass
ing through the animals. and by being
scattered with the manure they find a
rich seed bed in which to sprout and
develop bounteous crop of weeds the
following season.
Ranking still above the importance of
cleaning grain to guard against seeding
the farm to weed pests, comes that of
improvement in both the quantity and
quality of the crops produced. The
sowing of carefully selected seed grain
from a supply that has been passed
through the tanning mill will, if persis-
ted in from one year to another, work
wonders in the small grain crop. It will
mean a plumper, heavier and solder
grain for seed-one that will possess
strong terminating qualities and propa-
gate a sturdy, vigorous plant. Under
such system, it will require much less
seed to SOW than if light, weak seed
were sown. The stand of plants is
sure to be of uniform size, vigor and
productiveness.

excellent soil conditions reported

the plant has good stand, is we'll
rooted and has vigorous growth
and healthy appearance. There are
no indications of the development Of
insects and no complaints of any kind
of damage are made"
