ent Indications are that the CONNER
cial apple crop of the United States
this year will be far in excess Of that
of last year, but less than that of
1912, by several million barrels, ac-

horse sense. The Gazette is in favor
of strict law which will prevent men
with communicable diseases from mar
rying and breeding lust and vice into
our generations. But along with that
law should be a companion law which
will prevent issuing a marriage license
to a woman who can't cook, can't
clean up children's dirty necks, and
can't pass decent examination on the
feeding and care of infants. When wo-
men know something about what they
are going into as married women
whether they are rich or poor-there
will be more in the saeredness of
motherhood than the poets have ever
sung about New civilization has TAX

must now be learned outside the home

An Unjust Complaint

number of farm journals about
the country frequently take occasion
to lament because the United States
government is not doing more for agri-
cultural interests. Heavens. What
do these exponents of farming expect?
Do they want government experts not
only to demonstrate practical and sue
cessful ways of farming. but to furnish
the seed. SOW it and then harvest the
grain as well? We believe there is
opportunity for the agricultural man
to get more genuine assistance from
the government than ever before in
the history of the United States. The
trouble is that too many ranchers do
not seem to realize the advantages
that are offered and are slow to ac-
cept assistance that is ready for them
on request. The government is striy-
ing hard TO help ugriculturists in prac-
tical manner and 1t may be noted here
that some Of the valleys most success
fuI fruit growers. for instance. are men
who have followed the teachings OF
state and national agricultural insti-
tutions along scientific lines.-Grand
