THEN THE EGG MAGICIAN QUIT. :


Chicago Herald: Great LEGO, the
magician who does the famous egg
trick in vaudeville, packed his trunks
few days ago and walked out of the
bill at a local continuous show. The
high price of eggs drove him to II.
The illusionist breaks eighteen eggs
at every performance. AS long as he
was doing two day" it wasn't so bad.
But when he learned that he had to
appear at seven daily turns he got out
his pencil, and this is what he found !:
Eigheen eggs per performance, null
tiplied by seven performances, 12S
eggs; seven days, total of S82 eggs; at
SO cents a dozen, the current price,
$38.22. Figuring his weekly salary at
$40, less 10 per cent booking fee. would
leave him $2.22 loser on the week.
The grand finale of LEggo's per-
Torrance is when he breaks the eight
cen eggs employed in each turn into a
large bowl passes a magic cloth over
the mess, and brings out flock of
chickens. The eggs are necessarily
perishable, and as such are not furnish
ed as props" by the house. So Lego
rolled down his sleeves and made his
eggsit.

GET PROFITS
INSTEAD OF THE FORMER sclEN-
TlFlc PLAN OF DlSPoSlNG OF
THE FARM PRODUCTS ACCORD.
ING TO DAVID LUBlN.

Rome, Jan. 25. Correspondence Of
The Associated Press The REMEDY
for the high cost OF food in the United
states is adoption by the national
government OF a scientific plan for
disposing Of farm products" according
TO David Lubin the American repre-
sentative to the International Institute
OF Agriculture here and himself the
originator Of the plan OF founding that
institution.
The remedy worked out by Ger
many years ago and all we have to do
is TO adopt this remedy" he said. The
trouble with our present farming con.
ditiOns is that the middleman and the
speculatur rather that the farmer get
the biggest profit from the sale Of
farm products This is shown by the
fact that soon nearly fifty per cent.
Of the farms OF our country will be
mortgaged or merely occupied on lease
by the soils cultiyators
Right here in Rome a long while
ago was a striking example of what
poverty means to the farmer. In the
time Of Emperor Tiberius Gracious.
Rome began TO buy her food from
Africa instead OF encouraging her
farmers. The land rapidly passed
then from the hands OF the cultivator
of the soil to other ownership. and the
small farmers ruin entailed that of
the nation
America won't solve its high cost
of food problem by putting the specu.
lators in Jail. We must make it i'm.
possible for the speculator to operate
by strengthening the farmer. The
Germans saw this many years ago.
and they worked out a welfare plan
for the farmer and thereby for the
nation. which resulted in placing
eighty-six per cent. OF the farms in
the hands of the cultiyators.
The key OF the plan of the Ger.
mans, known as the Landwirthschaf |
trat, is that OF keeping the farmer in
