The world war has torn society
loose from it's moorings, and the
seeds Of disorganization have been
sown in every country of the world.
The war has. shown the populace the
potency of its power. and the danger
now is that the power may be abused
in an unfit effort to build new or
der upon the ruins of the old. See
ing such a possibility ahead Henry
Watterson writes:
But the whirl goes on; the yachts
sweep proudly out to sea; the auto
cars dash madly through the streets;
more and darker and deeper do the
contrasts of life show themselves.
How long shall it be when the mud
sill millions take the upper ten thous-
and by the throat and rend them as
the furiosOs of the Terror in France
did the aTistocrats of the Ancient
Regime? The issue between capital
and labor, for example, is full OF
generating heat and hate. Who shall
say that these, broken loose in the
crowded centers of population, may
not one day engulf us all? Is this
old-fashioned pessimism or merely
the vagaries of an old man dropping
back into his second childhood, who
does not see that The world war i

We recently heard the theory ad-
vanced that the county farm should
be put under the direct management
of the county farm agent, with au-
thority to direct the kind of crops to
be planted, the general plan of cult
walton. rotation of crops and fertili-
cation. The theory appeals to us as
a sound one, and we want to bring 1t
to the attention Of the Fiscal court.
Since the almshouse keeper is chang
ed with so much frequency he viii
very naturally cultivate the best
fields, and neglect such care of the
farm as would improve its fertility.
Under the management of the coun-
ty agent the farm could be improv-
ed from iyear to year, and made to
be a contributing factor in the keep
of the county's poor. The county
could afford to furnish such seed and
fertilizers as would tend to improve
the property. We hope our Fiscal
court will give the matter considera-
tion in its next meeting.

SHORT SERMON ON
RIOT OF MILLIONS
BY Arthur Cappar.
l. =. SENATE from Kansas

The 65th Congress, just closed.
made such lavish appropriations dur
ing and after the war that the job
Of spending the nearly so billions APP
propriated was too big for the spend
ers. Consequently about 90 billions
will be saved. The ultimate cost of
the war will be about GO billions.
These figures are based on an esti-
mate made in Washington.
No true American begrudged the
amplest expenditures for the war
we had pledged our all, if need be
but dumping our resources in heap
and going it dlinb" is not to make
efficient use of them. Yet. with the
war at an end, no enemy in sight, and
the nations discussing peace and re-
duction of armament, this prodigal
administration Is urging the appro-
priation of nearly 2 billion dollars
for a standing army and a record
breaking big naval program, the big
gest naval program in history
The symbolic device on the seal OF
the United States Treasury should be
sieve. The great pity is that the
millions and billions which now pass
through this great vacuum at Wash
ington must be dug out of the earth
by our workers and producers and
then taken from the earnings of the
common people and the pockets OF
the great consuming class, while a.

Recommending the naturalization
of the mines, Mr.. Hayes said: II feel
we should use all the economic and
