Loves Children


Dear Cynthia-May God bless you

are certainly a wonderful key to hope
and happiness. ! have one question to
ask you about playing with children

liver of children. | am always play

called the queen of children. Just love
them and I am always with them
Sometimes I have regular kindergar e

marbles with little boys and entertain
them in many ways. The children in

them. Now then, tell me, dear Cynthia
is it foolish to play with children
younger than yourself?
Of all the readers that l read truly

But, little friend, much as / love ant

following a wise plan to give so mucl
of your time to them; that is, if vol
are anxious to have friends your owl
age at the same time. You see. al
young girls and boys of seventeen are
not endowed with this feeling for littl'
ones and they cannot quite understand
it in you. So you must be broad
minded and make room for the opinions
of others. The children will appreci
ate you all the more if you deny then
your company some of the time.

THE FOOD BILL PASSES.

The senate has passed the bill APP
propriating one hundred millions of
dollars for feeding the hungry peo-
pies of Europe and the near East.
1t is specifically provided that none
of the funds shall 20 to sunplyinS
the Bolsheviks, or other enemies of
the United States.
Press dispatches of the same date
carried the news that Secretary
Baker had issued an order against
sire to quit the service before they
can be assured of employment.
Much as we revolt at the waste
involved in the retention of these
able-boded men on the government
payrolls and of continuing allowances
to their dependents. it is better that
the men should be kept fed in idle
ness than that they should be added
to the rapidly mounting class of the
unemployed who soon will be forming
bread lines in our cities.
From the beginning the Journal
supported the administration bill for
fighting Bolshevism with food; but it
has insisted, also from the beginning,
that there should be federal action
without further delay to provide work
for the discharged soldiers and war
workers.
The Journal of yesterday morning
carried a story of what may b. ione
in New Mexico toward securing en-
ployment for labor and toward finding
farms for returning soldiers and war
workers by cooperation between tho
state of New Mexico and the federal
government when the Lane bill is
passed by congress.
Ono of the best features of the bill
is that the state will have control o.
the work. il it puts up twenty-five
per cent of the funds to be loaned on
long time and easy payments for the
improvements necessary 70 make such
farming venture a success.
The successful carrying out Of this
plan would add a vast wealth to the
taxable resources of the state. It
would add materially 70 cur ropula-
ton and would bring u2 Il long step
forward toward producing the food
stuffs which we now largely buy from
eastern states or from California.

the contrary. the strongest Interest n
maintaining peaceful intUTCnurs4 be-
tween nations"
American capital is not so much in
terested in Mesopotamia as in Mexico.
The way it works out there is familiar
to all our capitalists know that
Mexico is unstable, and they won't
look at any Mexican proposition that
doesn't offer enormous profits. They
put in their money, and as long as
everything is calm and they make
their enormous profits, everything is
lovely. But presently there is a rev.
oluton. They took their chance, and
lost; but are they good losers? /
should say not They raise an extra
ordinary howl for American inter-
vention.
But the American laboring man ism
particularly interested. He never
stood to profit by the investment
Why should he be called upon to fight
to protect it? He feels naturally that
if the capital hadn't been invested in
Mexico, it might have gone into a
local enterprise that would have given
him a better job. And when the cap
italist talks beautifully about develop
ing backward country and spreading
the light of civilization, the laboring
man listens with patience but without
enthusiasm, and in the end inquiries
if the capitalist went down there for
his health.
Fortunately it is only a very small
portion of capital that is Interested
in these foreign enterprises. And the
best of our capitalists are learning to
cooperate with labor anl not antag-
onize it by trying to dominate our for
eign policy
In England, France, and Italy,
however, the capitalists are largely
in control of foreign policy Just
now they are scared to death by the
development in Russia. But that they
are still doing business at the old
stand is indicated by the territory
they hope to acquire as a result of this
war More chances for fine invest
ments--always more, more. more.
Yet they are afraid of labor and
labor's influence. The prominence
given to the League of Nations is Il
concession to labor as well as to
America. And the second subject to
be presented to the peace conference
is international labor problems. What
does It mean?

LABOR, CAPITAL AND WAR.

The love of money is the root of all
evil. The pursuit of riches is now
adays the commonest root of war. Yet
the power that brings riches does not
bring riches to all classes of the ma
ton alike When England acquires
new colony it may make few fat
jobs for Englshmen, but 1t isn't the
laboring class that get these jobs
1t may offer opportunities for mcra
tive investment. but it isn't the labor
ing class that make these investments.
Very often the investments are made
before the colony is acquired, and the
colony is acquired to protect the in
vestments. Soldiers, coming from all
classes, but mostly from the laborinS
class are used to acquire the colony.
When it is acquired, every loyal Eng
lishman is expected to throw up his
hat and rejoice that the constitution
follows the flag and that the sun
never sets on the British empire.
But for quite a while the british
laboring man has been wondering
whether pride in the size Of the en-
plre is enough compensation tor his
part in fighting to obtain the colony,
When he finds that a large section of
the capital class are gettlnS some-

Grille BOOSTS THE uOG.

one of the objects which President
Grille of the State College of AZ I'll
ture has sought to accomplish is that
New Mexico shall raise its OWE supply
of hogs. A year ago he began sys
tematically to work for the produ"-
ton of two head of cattle where only
one grew before. The experiments
made with soap weed and Spanish
dagger demonstrated that cattle
through a large part of New Mexico,
need not become victims of drouth
hereafter. Experiments in feeding
sheep and lambs have been most val
liable, as well as experiments in feed
ing cattle.
The breeding of dairy cattle has
taken a long step forward. state col
lege cows by scientific test having
been made to produce more than
twenty thousand pounds of milk in n
year and near the thousand pound
mark in butter The hen has been
encouraged to drop an average of
more than two hundred eggs year.
But possibly the greatest testimo-
NAL to President Crile's work is seen
in the herds of hogs in the Rio
Grande and the Pecos valleys. The
hog is the great mortgage litter. and
we are just finding out that with al
falfa he can be grown better in New
In al al
ton of the United States.
In the popular mind hog meat is
of lower nutritive value than beef;
but scientists have proved the fact to
be quite the contrary. Fats are as
necessary to human existence as lean
meats and in fats the hog takes the
palm from the whole procession
The hog is also the champion meat
grower. For every one hundred
pounds of food consumed he returns
nearly sixteen pounds of edible solids
where the beef creature gives back
less than three pounds. The COW, as
President Grille has pointed out, out
foots both the hog and the beef crea-
ture by giving eighteen pounds of edi-
BILE solids in the form of milk, and by
living to repeat the process year after
year.
President Grille is responsible for
another thought in this state, name
~. that the hog is the cleanest of all
animals if given a chance. He is the
only domestic animal tina will parcel
off his house into dining room bed
room and rubbish room. and religi-
ously respects his own house rules.
Also he wants Il bath in clean water
as often as he can get 1t.
Under normal conditions the pig is
comfortable neighbor and in his
measure satisfactory citizen. He
fulfils the qualifications of a safe and
sane citizen as laid down by julius
Caesar when he said:
Let me have men about ME that
are fat:
Sleek headed men, and such as
sleep o. nights"
When the pig is fed balanced
ration, he quietly eats and sleeps

TIE CHOIR INVISIBLE.

Q mdy join the choir invisible
or those immortal dead who live again
In minds made better by their pres
ence; five
In pulses stirred to generosity.
Indeed OF daring rectitude, in scorn
For miserable aims that end with self,
In thoughts sublime that pierce the
night like stars,
And with their mild persistence urge
mans search
To vaster Issues.
So to live in Heaven:
To make undying music in the world,
Breathing as beauteous, order that
controls
With growing sway the growing life of
man,
So We inherit that sweet purity
For which we struggled, failed and
agonized
With widening retrospect that bred
despair. ---Georse Eliot,
