SECRETARY HOUSTON
DEFENDS THE FARMER

David F. Houston. secretary OF
agriculture. does not assent to the
theory that the prices of farm pro-
ducts should fall before the prices OF
manufactured commodities fall He
makes this clear in replying to a
recent communication in which It was
stated There must be a drop in
prices before there is a drop In wages.
and 1t would seem that the farmer is
the man who is going to be flrst
hit" r.
This theory has been advanced by
a number of manufacturers. said the
secretary, who continued, ut is clear
.ly an unjust contention. It manifestly
would not do to ask farmers to pro-
duce, buying everything that they
have to buy from mAnufacnreraH at
high prices, with the assurance TO
them that their products will fall in
price. and that then manufacturers
will consider what they will do with
reference to their own prices.
Obviously. manufacturers must be
willing to make at least contem-
poraneous decrease in their prices. It
might even be commended that they
should make a prior decrease in their
prices, since the farmers operations
involve q year and he could not re-
coup for twelve months, or could not
recoup at all, because. on the theory
put forth. his products would fall In
prices, 1t seems to me that business
men must be brought TO realize that
If we are to yet back to the normal,
they must set about Immediately to do
their part, and unquestionably,
profiteering in manufactured products
must be eliminated
"Of course. everything possible win
be done TO enable the farmer to pro-
duce more economically, SO that IT
prices do fall, he will not sustain a
loss. or SO great loss, All the ef-
forts OF the department Of agriculture
and of the Immigrant colleges have
this aim They are trying to bring
about better methods of cultivation.
better financing, better marketing,
the elimination of plant and animal
diseases and insect pests, and the bet
tiers utilization OF labor Much has
been done in this direction, and more
will be done as time passes

As a result of a letter to all police

Most OF the men have now been

Why Do I Yawn,


When you yawn, you do 80 because
you have not been breathing quite
properly and for some reason or other
your blood supply has not been getaing
rufficient oxygen through the air
which has been taken into your lungs
Natures way, In this instance, is to
call for a big intake of air all at one
time. and since 1t is important at
such time that alarge quantity OF air
should be supplied to the lungs at once,
nature has SO arranged matters that
cartain muscles shall cause you to
open your mouth wide and take In
as much air as you can at one time,
and also has arranged so that it IL
almost impossible to keep from yawn-
ing when the demand for it il once
made. The yawn Is controlled by a
part OF our nerve structure which
looks after the breating apparatus
The satisfaction we feel after a
wholesome yawn Is due to the fact
that having replied to natures de-
nnand that we bring in more air. our
blood secures the oxygen which II
needs and we feel the effects OF bet
ter blood In our arteries at once.
A peculiar thing about the process
OF yawning Is that one person In 8
room yawning will qnite likely set ali
or nearly all the the others to yawn-
ing also. There seems to be no ex.
PLANTATION to this except that when q
number OF persons are In one room
and one OF them begins to yawn. ths
others 10 70 70, not ecause they per.
