DON'T VISIT THE FARMER

If you have friends who live on a
farm make it a point. for this summer
at least, not to visit them without a de-
finite and unforced invitation, says an
editorial in the July Woman's Home
Companion. Do not take car and run
out to the Smiths car for dinner on Sun
day because you know the Smiths have
plenty Of broilers and sweet corn, unless
Mrs. Smith has asked. nay urged, you
to come. Do not leave the hot city and
go to Cousin Johns in the country for
your vacation, taking your three child
rem and expecting free board and plenty
Of it. unless you can do work enough on
the farm to compensate Cousin John
and his wife for your presence, and also
unless they ask you to come. For this
year great and terrible responsibility
lies on the farmer-he must feed the
world. He must use all his energy to
raise crop that will supply not only
ourselves, but much Of the needs Of our
allies, who are doing the larger share
Of the fighting. The farmer and his
wife Especially his wife) have been
great sufferers from uninvited guests
who come to eat because, as they phrase

doesn't 1t? They ought to see a few
seed and feed and fertilizer and labor
bills! One farmers wife, a victim Of
greedy, thoughtless friends and relatives
for many years, last year put up a sign
at the gate, Board, 5000 per week.
Meals, so cents per person. All farm
produce for sale at reasonable prices. "
Let the people who drop in for fresh
broilers and roasting ears and green
apple pie. pay for what they get, or else
let the farmer and his wife have all
their strength and energy for the task
that lies before them"

NOT READY TO CONSIDER

age for industrial purposes, are more
concerned in the labor problem.

while the Importance at this time
of the careful consideration of every
measure calculated to render more eff
fective the mobilization of the man
power of the nation is appreciated by
the department, it is believed that the
initiation of legislation providing for
a universal liability to service of la
borers is more properly within the
province of those other governmental
departments and agencies which are
more directly connected in their Rc-
tivities in the labor situation than is

CHARLES N. RICHARDS BEGINS
55TH YEAR IN SENATE SERVICE

the Senate and his ffty-ffth year in
the stationery office.
Mr.. Richards has known personally
every President of tho United States
from Lincoln to Wilson. There is not
living today member of the Senate
of the House or of the Supreme Court
who was in office when Mr.. Richards
entered upon his work here. Fifteen
of the present senators had not yet
been born. During his service 100 sena-
tors have died in office and nearly 500
former senators have died.
Notwithstanding his long service and
his years, Mr.. Richards is hale and
hearty and can outwalk many men a
score OF years his junior. He was a
soldier in the Union Army during the
civil war as a member of the 18th
Massachusetts Regiment, and saw
much active service.
In the battle of Antietam he received
wound in the face which carried
away part of his upper jaw. He was
many months recovering from this in
jury. and it was after he had recovered
that he was appointed to place in the
Senate stationery office.
1--WE used to hear in a." said Mr..
Richards, the complaint that is some
times made today, that we don't have
the statesmen in the Senate that we
had in years gone by Yet there were
men like Charles Sumner, Henry Will
son. Ben Wade. John s. Sherman, oliver
p. Morton. Lyman Trumbull and Will
lard Salisbury. father Of the present
senator from Delaware. in office. be-
lieve that the present Senate would
average up with any Senate in ability
as statesmen and is far ahead in bust
ness ability of the personnel of the
Semitic in the past"
Mr.. Richards is engaged in writing
his "reminiscences. which he will pub
lish first serially and then in book
form.

POSTAL MEN CALLED
IN RATE INCREASE
Senate Committee to Hear De-
partment's Reply to Pub
fishers Protest.
COUNTER PROPOSITION

Hearings by the Senate post Office
committee on the proposed second class
mail rate increases, recently reopened
at the request of the American News
paper Publishers Association, were re-
sumed today, with Post Office Depart
ment representatives ready to testify.
Representatives of the publishers as
ISOLATION appearing yesterday protested
against the rates which. became effec-
tive July 1 under the war tax act, and
urged modification of the plan in SO far
as it applied to newspapers.
Those appearing were George Nc
Aneny of the New York Times and Maj.
L. B. Stahlman of the Nashville (Tenn.)
Banner. Both were introduced by
Frank P. Glass, the Birmingham,
Ala. News. president Of the publisherS
association.
In presenting the witnesses Mr.. Glass
read resolution adopted by the associa-
ton at New York in which the plan was
pronounced as unavoidable and urging
that no plan Of this kind be placed in
operation without a scientific investiga-
ton first. The witnesses heard repre-
pointed by the association to consider
postal rates.
Protest "Unanimous."
Mr.. McAneny said the protest was the
Unanimous voice of the daily news
papers, of the country. Newspaper pub
fishers, he said, are alarmed over the
provision and do not believe the system
proposed is feasible. They do not believe
it can be made TO work without addi-
tional expense and they fail to see how it
will be of any advantage to the gov
eminent.
'If there are abuses to be corrected
let them proceed and the government will
have the support Of the newspaper pub
lishers." said Mr.. McAneny.
'In the case of the newspapers. ] main
tain that need has not been shown"
The transportation of newspapers
last year gave q profit to the govern
ment, Mr.. McAneny said.
The newspapers will meet the in
creases. Mr.. Aneny said. by readjusting
their subscription rates. No attempt.
he said, would be made to make it up
in increased advertising rates.
Mr.. McAneny explained that owing to
| the increased cost of print paper and
other expenses due to the war. adj
vertising rates have been advanced as
much as possible.
advertising can't be forced to do
| more than it is doing today" he said.
