Secretary Houstons appeal to the farmers Of
the nation that they put forth extra efforts this
year to attain maximum yields is well timed. Its
spirit is good for peace or war, for famine times
or time OF plenty. The American farm is an i'm
portant factor in the life OF the country, not per-
haps, so complete in its control as it was few
years ago, for industrial development along other
lines has brought general manufacturing well up
to the level OF agriculture, but the two must move
in harmony to produce best results. Therefore
the farm ought to be made 100 per cent efficient.
This has not been done, for many reasons some
of which are not sound. 1t has been stated on
good authority that il the neglected fence corners
and waste land along country lanes in Nebraska
were given proper attention, enough to more than
support the states population could be raised
on ground now idle.
Prosperity for the farmer does not depend on
Interpretations any crop shortage that brings
high prices to the farmer is sure to be compen-
stated for against him by added cost Of what he
must buy. Commerce must be maintained in
equilibrium. Success in farming, as in any other
industrial undertaking depends upon competent
management, and the man who gives close atten-
ton and intelligent direction to the business will
get on. Seed testing. crop saving and other prac-
tees suggested by the secretary Of agriculture
make for better farming, and will bring financial
returns in proportion to effort, expended.
Patriotism can be exhibited in many ways, and
one of these is to make the farm Of higher service
to the nation.

Control Of Epidemics.

Judge Leslie has disposed for the time at least
OF the controversy over vaccination on basis of
common sense. He finds that no law Of the
state ordinance Of the city, or rule Of the schools
requires that children be vaccinated. This ought
to do away with the outcry against the health
commissioner as being "czar," name that
doesn't mean so much now as it did few days
ago, and relieve him Of the odium Of the charge
Of attempted compulsion. The court does find,
however that it is within the power OF the health
commissioner to require that unvaccinated per-
sons be secluded during the period Of incubation
that they may not become dangerous to others
through possible exposure or spreading the con-
tagion. This rule is reasonable. People may re-
frain from vaccination il they wish, but in doing
so they acquire no right to expose others to the
dangers they voluntarily assume. Unless he en-
forces this rule, the city physician would, in the
opinion of the court be derelict Even the most
determined Of opponents of vaccination ought to
agree to this No degree Of devotion to cult or
opinion can justify an individual in setting up
menace to the community. Control Of disease is
properly vested in the health commissioner of the
city, and with him rests the responsibility of de-
termining il an epidemic exists. Cooperation of
all citizens in carrying out ordinary provisions to
protect general health is reasonable require
ment

The worm turns occasionally. A private bunch

siderable hedging on school time and resulted in
rule docking the pay of teachers for hardness.
Another mystery is cleared up. The disappear
ance of jitneys from various cities in this country

Position of Senator Norris.

Oxford, Neb., March 27.-To the
Editor of The Bee: Senator Norris in
asking the governor to call a special
election to vote on his recall has GER
tainly eclipsed any of his former gall
lery stunts. Requesting the legisla-
ture to waste the peoples time and
money in passing his special law, re-
questing the governor to disregard the
constitution in calling his special cleo
ton and requesting that all business
be suspended in this springtime rush
that the people shall do him the honor
of voting at his election is surely
some request. II he had added that
he would pay the expense it would
have appeared as a guarantee of good
faith at least. Mr.. Norris is a lawyer
and knew that such a procedure would
be in conflict with state and national
constitutions. / am in sympathy with
much of Senator Norris opposition to
some of the administration procedure,
and in the way the resolution was
handled in the senate. l do not be-
lieve anyone has a right to question
the patriotism of the twelve senator's
who believed the bill dangerous and
were determined to kill it; they should
be commended for doing their duty
as they saw it. But they have no
cause to pose as martyrs to the cause
Of peace. They were no more anxious
for peace than the overwhelming ma
jority who desired to vote for the bill,
but were prevented by advantage be-
ing taken of the liberal rules Of the
senate.

Science Interprets Babies.

Science is at times capable Of realizing things
long seen and felt. Unwilling to predict anything on
faith, or intuition, it occasionally reaches point
in exploration where faith and intuition have long
been before it, and cries out with loud voice
that 1t has made an entirely new discovery. A
professor of psychology in the State University
OF Iowa has found that babies have words Of
their own invention which contain the sounds Of
English language, and some not in English, but
words with definite msaflngs he translates
he intmates that he has discovered 100 such in
srtculate words Of baby talk
All, proiessori Any mother could tell you
more than 100 sounds by which she can make the
! little inartculate voice wholly artculate to her
cars. 1t is one OF the mysteries Of life how a
young mother with her first child can catch the
meaning Of its ordinations its gurgles, its little
cries, whether of gladness or distress, as quickly
as we-attuned car can catch the moduated
accents Of the most finely infected voice. There
is something for psychology TO do in finding the
secret OF this. II it is not to be attributed to a
woman's intuition. the product OF great love and
yearning for the helpless being in her care then
il may be teepathic communication between
two souls which are still one, before the years
have come which bring their drifting tides and
separations. And that would be practically the
same thing. Anyhow. il is something for the
psychologists to investigate, i they can abandon

that babies can talk
They might well pursue their investigations

book than scientists are prone 10 use. A congress
pf mothers could translate, for the uses of science,
an interesting vocabulary OF baby sounds as good
as words for all such as are not OF those who,

The Plea for Higher Rates.

Railroads Of the country are now appearing
before the Interstate Commerce commission ask
ing that they be granted permission to advance
freight rates. All sorts OF reasons are urged in
support Of the request. Chief among these is the
increased cost OF operation, due to higher wages
paid, advance in price of material used and addi-
tiona burden Of taxation levied by the states and
the federal government Need of additional cap
ita for the purpose Of making extensions and bet
terments in service is urged, and the argument is
made that greater income must be had that in
yestors will be attracted by railroad issues.
Chairman Lovett Of the Union Pacific pre-
sented to the commission some facts, showing
how locomotives have nearly doubled in price
within two years, and similar increases in other
articles railroads must have. Julius Krutschnitt
Of the Southern Pacific has referred to the as
cent dollar" and inferentially suggesting that it
applies to the railroads alone. These arguments
may be readily adopted by any line OF business.
Arguments opposed to the plea Of the rail-
roads are the already enormous earnings, totaling
far above any normal income, under present rates.
Expectations are that the general traffic of the
country will continue on its present basis for
months, and that the roads will enjoy the huge
revenues now obtained without cessation. Need
for readjustment Of business conditions is ad-
mitted, that the so-caled Ascent dollar may be
properly balanced in all departments OF trade 1t
is not likely this will be accomplished by gen.,
eral increase in prices that all may be brought up
to the level attained by few commodities under
the cxcitaton Of war. Nor is it reasonable to ask
that railroad investments be made on the basis Of
imitation experienced by those industries chiefly
benehciaries Of the disturbed condition of trade
The public still requires the service the rail-
roads give, but expects it at rates that will not
inAict unnecessary burdens on any. The whole
proposition is one leading up to better arrange
nient Of our general business, which must come
before health can be restored to the country's
commerce and industry.
