Farms Need The Young Men,

Belzoni Banner.
Much OF our future success in this
country depends upon our ability to
keep our young men on the farms
and away from the eities. Statistics
show that the farms are gradually
becoming depopulated and the cities
are being overcrowded, with from
two TO five men waiting for every
job. If our young men would stick
to the farms, and improve and dcvel-
OPP the uncultivated acres, it would
be only question of time when the
wealth of this country would be
doub | e d and TT cd ! e d
Bright lights and white ways appeal
to the young eye, but they do not
feed empty stomachs. The farm is a
good place to be and a far better
place to StaV

In this connection We editor and

our appreciation of the courtesies

The Herald is mighty glad to see
that the mexican situation is seem
ing to adjust itself so that war will
be averted at least for the present.
One noticeable good effect that that
final message to Carranza sent by our
government had, is that the de facto
mexican government under his di-
rection is endeavoring to remove
the reproach in such message and
is really getting down to business
now with Uncle Sam trying in ear
nest to capture Villa and rid thai
unhappy country as well as the Dor
der of this one of such menace &c
peace and security to pro Jerty ano
the lives of its citizens and soldiery.
May Villa soon be corralled and dealt
with his as ruthiessly bloody career
of late months would Indicate.

Possibly this storm will have done
good to the public in forcing mer-
chants having a lot of old goods to
unload them by sales showing prices
within keeping with their true
worth. There is certain amount
of depreciation to some kind of
merchandise such as shoes, hats,
clothing, shirts, hose ETC., that the
consumer has to stand ia a great
many cases In country districts be-
cause he knows nothing of their age,
and If the threads or even the materi-
al itself is rotten from age without he
is mighty keen of eye oft he does not
know it until he begins to wear the
commodity and finds it giving down
too quick for good condition. The
writer has often thought OF EDITORIAL
zing towards seeing national bill
enacted something like the national
pure food and drug law, applied to
such goods above mentioned to be
stamped with dates" showing their
time of manufacture. This would
protect the merchant buying and
protect the customer 10 his turn and
and force the non progressive coun-
try merchant TO have about two
clearance sales year as is done by
the enterprising city dealers who
thus rid their shelves of non season
able goods and at the same turn
over their capital about twice year
and are by that means enabled to OPP
crate upon closer margin of invest
ed money. Some fellows are too la
w, aud some are too stingy to at
tempt putting on a sale and some
lack self-confidence in undertaking
such a venture. Nothing but the
pressure of public opinion will ever
bring all OF them to it and the sus-
picion of 'sstorm- damage is going
TO operate now powerfully that way
for awhile at least.

One noticeable good difference be-
tween the feeling following this
storm and that of 1906 Is the lack
of that deep gloom which was evil
dent everywhere then The people
are somewhat disturbed about hav-
ing lost their crops or the bigger per
cent of them, but most of them look
forward hopefully TO making it
through till another crop can be
made if timber works will open up
to give employment and furnish
bread and meat money through the
winter which is very likely to occur
though the market condition now is
rather discouraging, but its mid
summer. the european war is in full
blast and a president election on,
two of which conditions shall have
past when real cold weather sets in
and the war has already been shown
not to make the difference it once did
on shipping as new ships are being
built and launched every month tC
relieve the transportation by waters
situation and the ways are full ev.
eryWhere of more being built. Sc
let's cheer up we say to any who are
downhearted. save what we can ano
may it go as far as we can and hope
tor better things. 1t may be just
ahead and better than anything we
