Nos city
OF Blondes
New York Observer Checks an.
Alarm Started by Chi
cage, Man. =

NEW YORK. Oct. IL. There is no
blonde famine in New York. Chicago
would have this town believe that the;
Of the country Is threatened
by shortage Of blondes.
The Fashion Art League Of Amer
lea, which has its headquarters IN the
Windy City" has sent broadcast the
word that it's getting harder every day
to find good looking blonde. There.
are blondes a plenty here. Three out.
OF every i've women you meet along
are blondes. In fact, there
are enough blondes here to supply the
whole country and there isn't the
slightest danger Of a shortage unless
all OF them should suddenly decide %
become brunettes.
There is a cheer in the tact that
more brunettes make up their minds
to be blondes than vice versa. The
very latest thatci decoration here,
however Is henna coloreyi hair. Queer
how the girls are all crazy over red
hair; 1t used to be a sort OF disgrace.

Hard Hit
Philadelphia Scientist Sees No
Reason Why Cousins

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Oct. 1s.-
There is no eugenic- reason why first
cousins and even brothers and sisters
should not marry. in the opinion Of

of Pennsylvania. After experiments
with rats, covering four and a half
years, by Dr.. II. D. King OF that de-

but would tend to produce types.larger
and more efficient physically than
those which result from marriages
now universally recognized.

1T Is NOT contended that upon q

ter any order requiring or authoriz-
ing an increase of rates; yet this is q
proceeding for the avowed purpose
among other things. Of inquiring
whether the present rates OF the car

view any expression OF opinion on
this question, following a general in

and important questions respecting
the reasonableness of rates not before

that they were opposed to the federal

that for the federal commissioners Il

1t now develops that when Ppesi-

terred with Commissioners Clements

than about large cargo coal. In fact
the West Virginia operators believe
the purpose of the second call. was
wholly about the rates to what may
be called interior consuming points.
The West Virginia operators, IL they
go to the department Of justice with
suggestions about, the antitrust law,

Of the Toledo and Ohio Central, the
Pittsburg and Lake Erie and the Ka-

Motives for Raise.
1t is suggested that the Toledo and

the West Virginia field would, but
for the control Of the Pittsbnrg and

be in competition with each other, in

Another suggestion made by the If

are watching the tariff division Of the

is that the Chesapeake and Ohio, now

willing to listen to suggestions about

FREE PORTS BUILDERS IF
 COMMERCE
CONGRESS SHOULD GIVE THEM PREFERENCE IN APPRo-
 RELATIONS.
By Peter Radford.

This nation IS now entering upon an era of marine development. The wreckage of European commerce has drifted to our shores and the world war is making unprecedented de mands for the products ot farm and factory. In transportation facilities on land we lead the world but our port facilities are inadequate, and our flag is seldom seen in foreign ports. If our government would only divert the energy we have displayed in conquer ing the railroads to mastering the commerce of the sea, a foreign bot tom would be unknown on the oceans highways.
 This article will be confined to a discussion of our ports for the pro- ducts of the farm must pass over our wharfs before reaching the water We have in this nation 51 ports, of which fl are on the Atlantic and 10 are on the Pacific Coast. The Sixty-second Congress appropriated over $51,O0O,- GOO for improving our Rivers and Harbors and private enterprise levies a toll of approximately $50,000,000 annually in wharfage and charges for which no tangible service is rendered. The latter item should be lifted off the backs of the farmer of this na- tion and this can be done by Congress directing it's appropriations to ports that are free where vessels can tie up to a wharf and discharge her cargo free of any fee or charge.
 A free port is progress. It takes out the unnecessary link in the chain of transactions in commerce which has for centuries laid heavy hand upon commerce. No movement is so heavily laden with results or will more widely and equally distribute its benefits as that of free port and none can be more easily and eff fectively secured.

THE VITAL PROBLEM OF
 AGRICULTURE
By Peter Radford.

There is no escaping the market problem and the highest development of agriculture will not be attained until it is solved, for a market is as necessary for the producer as land on which to grow his crop.
 Governmental and educational insti- tutions have spent $1SO.oOO.OOO in the United States during the past ten years for improving soil production and improving seeds and plants, but very little attention and less money has been given to the marketing side of agriculture.
 The problem is a monumental one and one which will never be solved until it gets within the grasp of a gigantic organization where master minds can concentrate the combined experience and wisdom of the age upon it. It is a problem which the farmers, merchants, bankers, editors and statesmen must unite in solving.
 The Farmers Union stands for all there is in farming from the most scientific methods of seed selection to the most systematic and profitable PAoAS OA AAdAhObAA6g OuS 0OCo AOb OC- lieve in promoting one to the neglect of the other. We consider the work of farm demonstrators valuable and we ask that governmental and com mercial agencies seeking to help us, continue to give us their assistance and advice, but we believe that their influence should be extended to the marketing side of our farm problems also.
 We cannot hope to develop manu- featuring by over-production of the factory; we cannot build up mercan- tile enterprises by the merchants load ing their shelves with surplus goods and no more can we develop agricul- ture by glutting the market with a surplus of products.

OUR PUBLIC FORUM


Through the Press Service of Agri- culture and Commerce, the master minds of this nation will be invited to the public forum and asked to de- liver a message to civilization. Men who achieve seldom talk, and men who talk seldom achieve. There is no such thing as a noisy thinker, and brevity is always a close companion to truth.
 It will be a great privilege to stand by the side of men who can roll in place the cornerstone of industry; to associate with men who can look at the world and see to the bottom of it; to commune with men who can hear the roar of civilization few centuries away.
 Too often we listen to the rabble element of our day that cries out against every man who achieves. "Crucify him." Mankind never has and probably never will produce a generation that appreciates the genius of it's day. There never will be crown without a cross, progress with out sacrifice or an achievement with out challenge.
 This is an age of service, and that man is greatest who serves the larg- est number. The present generation has done more to improve the con- dition of mankind than any civiliza- tion since human motives began their upward flight. The Greeks gave human life inspiration, but while her orators were speaking with the tongues of angels, her farmers were blowing with forked sticks; while her phil osophers were emancipating human thought from bondage her traffic

moved on two-wheeled carts driven, and ofttimes drawn, by slaves; while her artists were painting divine dreams on canvas, the streets of proud Athens were lighted by fire brands dipped in tallow.
 The genius of past ages sought to arouse the intellect and stir the soul but the master minds of today are seeking to serve Civilization has as- signed to America the greatest task of the greatest age, and the greatest men that ever trod the greatest planet are solving it. Their achievements have astounded the whole world and we challenge every age and nation to name men or products that can approach in creative genius or mas terful skill in organization, the mar velous achievements of the tremend- ous men of the present day. Edison can press a button and turn a light on multiplied millions of homes; Vail can take down the receiver and talk with fifty millions of people; Mo Cormick's reaper can harvest the worlds crop, and Fulton's steam en- and sea.
 The greatest thing a human being can do is to serve his fellow men; Christ did it; Kings decree it, and wise men teach it It is the glory of this practical age that Edison could find no higher calling than to become the janitor to civilization; Vail the messenger to mankind; Mccormick the hired hand to agriculture, and Fulton the teamster to industry, and blessed is the age that has such inasters for its servants.
