The Wheat Crop and Prosperity

The winter wheat crop of 837 100000 bushels
on 1925 basis will bring the farmers of this
country 81, 891 500, 900. The department of agr-
culture predicts that the spring wheat crop will
run from 225, 100000 to OO,000000 bushels for
which the farmer, under the bill passed by con-
gress at the last session, will also receive the
difference between the guaranteed price of S2.26
bushel and the world market price.
The demands of the United States est-
mated at 65OOOO,OOO bushels. With the spring
wheat production estimated between 225, 100000
and 30O0 OO 900 bushels, it is estimated that the
surplus available for export will be about $780,
OOO, 900 bushels The winter wheat estimate is
double the yearly average production in the
United States for the five years before the war
and nearly so per cent larger than the production
during the war years from 1914 to 1918.
The prospect of prosperous year in the bust
ness and industrial spheres of the United States
was never brighter. The unprecedented return
which the farmers will receive for their wheat
will be marked in all channels of trade and will
of necessity rebound to the welfare of the whole
nation.
The hope of many consumers that the price
of food will be materially reduced is without
foundation. The chances are that the price level
will remain not far from where it is now. The
demand for food all over the world will be heavy,
because food stocks have been depleted The
large surplus which before the was held in
the warehouses of the world has been exhausted
Little relief can be expected from crops in the
European countries The great wheat region of
Russia probably will not produce enough wheat
to support the starving millions of that country
The reconstruction work in the belligerent coun-
tries will not have progressed far enough to make
their agricultural yield factor in the food ques
ton. Economists tell us that by reason of the
greatly increased amount of money in crcua-
ton, price levels will remain where they are for
sometime.

When Did First
Session of Court
Meet Here?

The records of the first court ever
held in Wayne county, were very sim
pie in contrast to the massive volumes
in which are recorded every action Of
the courts of today. They consisted
of half quire of English paper,
shaped into something like a school
writing book without a cover"
They record that the first court was
held shortly after the formation Of
the county, on February %, 1911, at
the house of Richard Rue, three miles
south of Richmond. The judges were
Peter Flemming, Aaron Martin and
jeremiah Meek; George Hunt was
clerk, John Turner, sheriff, and James
Noble, prosecuting attorney.
The first business of the court was
to divide the county into two town
ships and appoint constables and
overseers of the poor for these two
districts. David Railsback and John
Shaw were made overseers, for one
district, Abraham Gaar, John Collins
and Lewis Little, fence viewers; Will
liam Foutz, Nathaniel Mcclure and
Robert Hill viewers for the second
district, and David Galbraith and
George Smith. overseers. A commit
tee to adjust the accounts of the poor
overseers was composed of David
Carson, Timothy Hunt, Samuel lobe,
Jacob Meek, Elijah Fisher and George
Holman.
The court seal was made of a
wafer and piece of paper turned
over it, with the letters Wayne County
written upon it" The first court term
lasted but one day.

Home Gardens

Although considerable space has been devoted
in this newspaper to the home garden movement
readers may not take it amss if they are re-
minded again that home garden is as profitable
in times of peace in war years. Every vege-
table produced at home on a strip of land which
otherwise would remain uncultivated adds that
mite to the national income, cuts down demand
on the market and helps reduce the price.
This form of thrift in former years met with
little response. The year taught many a
family the advantage of cultivating garden, and
incidentally contributed to the health of the per-
sons who welded the hoes and rakes. Thous-
ands of dollars added to the savings of
Americans by the produce they raised at home.
The garden movement obtained firm foot
hold in Richmond No city in the United States
had as many school gardens in proportion to the
enrolment as did Richmond. In fact, the record
was almost perfect. The school authorities have
provided a supervisor who intends to maintain
this record. He will instruct the children and adj
wise adults in methods and procedure.
Home gardens should have permanent place
in our household economy. If persons cultivated
them as fad or to be in style last year, let them
convert the fad into practice and remain III
style by diligently working their gardens this
year.

Russia S Need

Says the Chicago Tribune: Russia has not

how to serve Russia The Nansen commission,
which has investigated, reports that starvation
is taking thousands and thousands. The emo
tional instinct of the civilized world which has
food is to ship it into Russia, feed the hungry.
stop the starvation, and rescue the country, but
the civilized world is entitled to ask what it will
get in return.
Russia just now is potentially greater dan
ger to the peace of the world than Germany ever
was. It is agitated and governed, SO far as it is
governed, by men whose social scheme is alto
gether antagonstic to the social scheme of the
civilized world.
Tartars, Malay pirates, old Scandinavian ber-
serkers, the old Huns, could not do as much dam
age to social order, to human life and ways Of
life as the bolshevists have done. They are ag-
gressive They know that either their social
order or our social order must be destroyed. They
intend that ours shall be destroyed. They are
realistic, tricky, INSCRIPTIONS. They have estah-
lished their ideas in Russia and Russian starva-
ton is their work They would establish their
ideas everywhere and starvation everywhere
would result

merely strengthen the opponent for more
vicious attack upon order? Will it prevent the
Russians from arising, in their desperation,
against their murderous and violent governors
Will it merely increase the sum of human suffer-
ing by relieving Russian suffering?
We demand guarantees not in cold blooded
bargaining but in consideration for the greater
claims of humanity generally. If we rescue
Russia we must demand that Russia cease to
threaten the security of the world.
1t will not be humane to strengthen Russia
for spread of atrocity and incompetence, false
social theory, and violent revolution producing
disaster all over the world.
We cannot sanely give strength to social
maniac, put bread in of his hands, and allow
him to retain bloody club in the other, give him
new strength and full liberty to use it.
If Russia wants help from the civilized family
of nations let Russia indicate that it is willing to
live in peace with the family of nations.
The worlds instinct, we know it is the Ameri-
can instinct, is to be generous-even prodigal in
its assistance. But the greater humanity must
be served.
