BURLESON
UNDER FIRE,

Postmaster. General Burleson is
being severely criticized through
out the country, by Congress, and
by labor organizations, especially
for his reorganization as he calls
it, of the railway mail clerks. 1t
seems peculiar that he should SIM
gle out this particular class OF
men for oppression, if not prosecu.
ton, who are known the country
over as men OF efficiency high
above the average post Office EN-
ployes. The Postmaster General
in his over jealous desire to reduce
expenses of the Post Office has
gone entirely too far in not only
reducing the number of railway
mail clerks but in actually reduc'
Ing their salaries in many cases.
In some places bow the mail crew
is entirely inadequate to assort
and distribute the mail on the
rapidly moving trains between
stations. Consequently letters are
often late by one or more days to
the detriment of business.

FOOD PRICES KEEP
PACE WITH COTTON

Even though the price Of cotton
remains high and q large crop is
made in 1917, the farmer who does
not produce as much as possible
of the required food and feedstuffs
on his own farm cannot remain
very prosperous, according to DIR.
Bradford Knapp, Of the q. 8. De
partment Of Agriculture, who ad
dressed the farmers at the recent
short course at the Louisiana
State University. The farmer is
prosperous now because he paid
debts made at low prices with cot
ton at high price. The increase
10 the prices of supplies did Dot
occur until the fall of 1916, but
they have kept pace with that of
cotton and have the same relative
value az existed in 1914.
In the rolling wealth of 1916
the farmer should not forget the
poverty of 1914 The unbalanced
husbandry showed great defects
at the opening of the European
war. People then turned their
attention to the production OF
food and live stock, and the pro
gram OF safe farming then adopt
ed should not be changed now
Safe farming does not mean leav
ing out cotton or cane or rice. Il
means nothing more or less than
that the farmer plans to produce
ON his own farm food tor his fami
| IL, feed for his live stock and tbeI
a cash crop Il S. U. Press Bnlle
