What's the Differencel
Not only are the "populous vulgus"
surging the public dance halls. but the
local patricians are also delving into
the realms of Jazz. Try TO engage any
OF the better-class dancing floors eth
er in the large hotels or auditoriums
about any city, and you will invariably
find that they have not an open date
until far past Christmas. Neither are

indeed. whose charge does not run into
three figures.
And why is It? Just a working OF
the ancient economic law OF supply

trebled in some instances, throughout
the country. Take the old stands

resounded through the land at that
period, the martial airs everywhere.
the devil-care spirit that prevailed and
the weird sounds from sizzling of bull
lets led to the birth OF the now IA
nous jazz, which reigns today supreme
in dancing circles. Just as the war
made people cast convention TO the
winds, give vent TO their impulses and
unscrew their nervous emotion. jazz,
with its weird steps and the equally
weird music that accompanies It,,
broke all the hitherto established pre-
requisites for proper dancing.
But it was just what the people
wanted Jazz dancing interpreted
their feelings in the same manner as
did George NJ. Cohan's over There"
kindle their patriotism. The net re-
suit was instantaneous popularity for
jazz
With the signing OF the armistice,
the prediction was made that the
dance freak of Jazz would slip. like
other wartime activities. into oblivion.
The forecast was wrong. Jazz today
is still in its heyday. and is even be-

where 1t was formerly "25 cents for
ladies and 80 cents for gents, with the
wardrobe included" It is now so cents
for ladies and so cents for men with
the wardrobe excluded. and the 10 per

What's the price when there is d
dance with a swell dame included?- is
the philosophy Of the present youth as
he saunters up TO the neighborhood
dance palace. We all possess a phil
osophical view of life. but we rarely
put it to practical use. The dance
crazed youth is no exception among us
mortals. When he approaches the
box-offce OF the dance hall he re
quests but a single ticket Besides De

times. this single ticket carries with
il other assets.
The feminine habitue OF the public
dance prefers 10 pay her own way.
Any night you can see hundreds OF
girls unescorted filing into the dance
halls. and they buy their own tickets
without the slightest hesitancy.
Paying your own admission gives

both the boy and girl terpsichoresn
artists a certain independence that is
well worth the price. One. then. can
dance with whom he or she pleases.
This means something IN the old
days the youth who escorted the girl
TO the dance had chattel rights. He
could direct her various wishes and
whtms according to his own. Not so
now. The young lass OF today is on
equal footing.
However, the youth is not getting the
bad end Of the new code. Not by a
long sight. When he goes to the dance
hall alone he is in the same position
as was the young patrician in ancient
Rome. he could look EN- over" and
then select a partner according TO his
fancy.

In 1915. IN the northern corn belt,
most OF the corn failed TO mature. We
had little good, homegrown seed for
the 1916 planting This would have
taught us a lesson. We should have
saved twO-year supply of seed in
1916. but we didn't. In 1917 the corn
again failed TO mature and We were
again caught without seed. The result
was that farmers of the United States
lost millions OF. dollars because of the
reduced yield in 1918. The 1919 corn

The Turkey TrOt


~UUSLY ran a popular ditty OF
a Few years ago when all the
~ world was either turkey-trot-
tins or bur1y-hugging. That song
summarized the dance craze OF 1912
1918. 10 marked the passing of the
oId-fashioncd waltz and the sedate
two-step along with some folk dances
that had held public sway for more
than a half OF century. OF course.
az that time the populace at large be
fevod the new craze for modern
dances was only temporary. Every
ching possible was done TO prevent it
from growing any larger. The tur-
key trot and the bunny hug were de
uouuced far and wide in the press. pull
pit and at the home hearth. But do
what they might. the reformers could
not swing back the pendulum of the
dance craze. for the new dances had
come 10 stay.

~ the farmers OF this country want
to profit by the experience OF re-
cent years, when they were sew

seed. resulting in poor crops, they will
at once turn their attention 10 the Sc
lection OF plenty Of good seed for
their own use as well as TO sell to their
ueiEhbors. If next years corn crop
should be a total or, partial failure, it
might not be possible 10 harvest any
good SEED at oil from it. In that event
if this years seed was properly
chosen and yell cared for during the
winter months, will not only be good

on record and few farmers will have
any excuse for not saving an abund-
ance OF seed.
To save plenty OF good seed Is al
ways good business. If our surplus is
not needed for seed II will not be
wasted. It always will have market
value. or IL may be fed to stock. II
il should be needed for seed il will be
worth many times its market value as

as we could get from corn grown in
the immediate neighborhood.

that with the coming of the new
dances, gracefulness is lost. They
failed to remember that this is not
graceful age such as our fathers was.
and youth has its fling differently in
different generations.
They Didn't Last.
Although the turkey trot and bun
ny hug went out. their going was only
nominal. The dances that succeeded
them. namely the fox trot and the one
step. were only moderated forms Of
the same steps that were used in the
turkey trot and the bunny hug. Steam
ship agencies ad ertisements in re-
gard to Hawaii were mainly RESPONSE
bic for the popularity that the fox trOt
and one-step enjoyed in 1916-1917.
People believed that Hawaiian music
was perfect for dancing. and the
steamship agencies urged them on
their beliefs by distributing literature
to that effect
Nevertheless, the fox trot and the
one-step had the center OF the stage
until the winter OF 1918. when our
boys began to take the European tour.

The best place to store corn IS some
