The Kickers

A newspaper pa@graDh states
that the city of St. Louis is spend
ing $4,000 a year in maintaining a
complaint board. 1t is its duty to
hear complaints regarding local con
ditions and remedy same if possible
But the board reports it has no
complaints to handle.
1t is possible that the citizens do
plenty of knocking in private con-
versation. Yet they may lack the
energy to place their complaints be-
fore any public authority. This
condition is one found in most
towns.
There are many people every
where, and no doubt here in Monroe
City who are always kicking in an
irresponsible way. They are full of
of complaints of home town con.
ditions, at times when their talk
can do no possible good. The only
effect is to distribute pessimism and
discouragement
They give the impression that their
town is a run down place with
everything at loose ends.
Now there will be room for i'm.
prov ement even in Heaven. The
judicious kicker. who sees real com
munity defects. should bring these
matters before the people responsi'
BILE or in a position to remedy them
Also it does take public agitation t
acc omplish any kind Of progress
But aimless kicking. distributed
with no purpose to organize senti
ment for improvement. distributes
among people who themselves vii
never do anything but kick. is
dead weight on any towns advance
| So complaint board is a gooc
proposition. But a town does no
need any separate organization TO
that purpose. There should alway'

The Business Outlook

The history of American business
after the Civil War proved that a
period OF expansion and prosperity
may follow after the destruction
and waste OF a great war. While
Europe is now impoverished, re.
ports are already given out of great
orders for materials that they will
place in this country. They will
buy great quantities Of food. These
demands will 90 far to keep the
farms and factories busy.
Up to April. 1917. the United
States was growing rich on the war
Enormous quantities of food and
munitions were shipped across.
America in effect swapped its sup.
plies in return for the cancellation
of vast debt owed by its various in.
terprises to Europe. Thus the war
turned the United States from a
debtor to a creditor nation. And
all through the period after this
country entered the war, it kept
shipping great quantities of supplies
to its allies and the neutrals, from
which a constant stream of wealth
is still flowing in,
Furthermore people lived more
simply during the war period and
cut down many lines of expenditure.
A great deal of money was put into
Liberty bonds that used to 60 to
luxuries.
National wealth is not much af-
fected by the war debt. If a mans
own personal share of that debt is
$1,000, and if while the debt was
being incurred he made savings of
ST 600 in bonds, he is neither poorer
nor richer Paying the debt would
be simply paying the money from
one pocket to another.
1t seems a fair judgu ent that the
war period of 1914. 1918 has not
impoverished the United States at
all. There is probably more wealth
in the country than at the begin
ming of the period The total bal,
ance of property over all debts is
probably greater than then. If so,
there is more capital for productive
enterprises and for the employment
! Of labor,

Weather Affects Markets

Any given weather condition
cold, rain or heat may affect one
market one way and another market
in the directly opposite way. A
period of rainy weather. for in

and away down in Atlanta or Au.
eusta. The effect OF any particular
weather condition is likely to be
different in the big consuming mar
ket from what it is in producing
sections. In the cases cited, the
rain might delay gathering Then at
the beginning of fair weather. great
quantities of more or less damaged
peaches would come in at once,
instead Of being distributed over a
period of weeks. and prices would
60 down sharply. At the same time
a shortage would have been caused
in some of the large cities and
prices would 60 up. Another set oI
conditions might reverse the pro.
cess, making prices high in produc
ing sections and relatively low al
consuming markets. The crop anC

Farm Organizations

A movement is spreading ovef
the country to organize the farmers
for the protection of their interests.
The first object would seem to be
to secure better representation oi
the farming interest in the making
of state and national legislation
The farmers of Illinois have gone
about as far as any. They employ
a secretary at an annual salary OF
$4,000, and have formed plans for
enrolling every farmer in the state.
The farmers will accomplish the
mo st for themselves by unifying
these various movements II in
one state they organize through
their farm bureaus, in another
through an independent state or.
ganization. there will be a lack Of
concerted action This will prevent
the influence of the farmers from
acc omplishing the maximum of
which it is possible.
The farmer does not have, in the
forming of legislation. the influence
that is exerted by other economic
elements. The mechanic classes
have a tremendous power. This is
largely because they concentrated
their efforts in the one organization
of the American Federation of La
Dor. This unified movement has
become so far the spokesman for
this type of people, that it COM
mands a tremendous influence. A
great many law makers are very
much afraid of it.
Similarly the business interests
while not so closely unified, exert a
large influence through Chambers
of Commerce and like associations
The farmers organizations will
pursue less radical measures than
the labor movement They are
mainly concerned to see a reason.
able proportion of farmers in legis
tative bodies. and still more to see
their point of view fairly presented
in hearings and public discussion.
This movement is likely to sweep
over the whole couatry soon. In
so far as these organizations can be
united into one body as recognized
spokesman Of the agricultural inter.
est, it will WELD the most influence.
Monroe City Democrat., 1919-03-07

Don't rock the business boat.
This country is sound TO the core
and will come out of the war recon
struction period on the wave of a
business boom if every man will
put his shoulder to the wheel and
keep pushing.
Monroe City Democrat., 1919-03-07
Millions for Farmers

Fifteen million dollars will be ex-
pended this year by the Federal
Government and the various States
10 placing at the disposal of farmers
the scientific knowledge and prac-
tical methods developed by the De-
partment Of Agriculture to increase
their production and reduce their
costs. Of this sum, S4.680.000 is
contributed by the Government un-
der the provisions Of the Smith
Lever act; $6.2O0,O0O is derived
from funds directly appropriated to
the Department of Agriculture; $2,-
100000 is allotted by counties,
and the remainder comes from
State colleges of agriculture and 10.
cal organizations.
In addition to the regular appro-
priation of 100000 authorized by
the Smith-Lever act, there was a
temporary addition of $4,000000
during the war. Although this fund
was available in 1918, the benefits
of its expenditure will be reflected
in this years crops. There will be
annual inorements to the allowance
under the Smith-Lev law until a !
maximum of nearly $5.000.000 is
attained, This amount will then be
provided each succeeding year un-
less Congress enlarees it.
On July /. 1918, there were in
the field 6216 extensions workers.
including 5000 county agents, e
034 home demonstrations agents,
and 1,181 boys and girls club
workers. More than 100000
farmers were in organizations form
ed to assist county agents in their
work. and an equal number of WON
en- belonged to community clubs or
centers organized by home demons
tration agents These representa-
tives of the Government and the
several States teach the farmer to
select seed. fertilize land, cultivate
his crops, manage his livestock and
reduce his costs. Won. n on the
farm are taught the art of prepar
ing, drying and preserving fruits
aud vegetables and are grounded in
general home economics.
The results of this constant CO.
operation of the Government with
the agricultural workers are maini-
fest in a larger production per acre
and in promise of a still bigger in
crease in the average yield. 10 the
midst of the war. with labor scarce,
high costs for seeds and implements
and unfavorable weather, American
farmers were able to produce
enough to feed not only their own
countrymen, but also the peoples
of Europe.
Monroe City Democrat., 1919-03-07
New Foods Veer Off

Happily, many of the threatened
food innovations never reach US.
Belgian hares. after all the talk
about them, were not visited upon
US; dog fish" got no farther west
than Boston. and dispatch few
days ago lightened our hearts with
the information that whales enough
had been caught to feed the Eskimo
sledge dogs of Alaska this winter.
The whale meat that was to help US
win the war; placed on our tables as
q substitute. now finds its proper
classification as dog meat. We are
not begrudeing the Alaska dogs
at all.
What seemed propaganda litera-
ture paving the way for a small
invasion of the United States is also
seen no more. Perhaps it worked
too slowly. It will take a long
while for snails to crawl into favor
as an American article of diet,
offered tastefully on background
of lettuce or otherwise.
Our splendid isolation as a ma
ton stands Us in good stead gas

GI0ves-The Sense of Touch.

With the coming of cold weather
many players don gloves for the sake
of warmth, but those who do either
underestimate the Importance of the
feel" of the club, or prefer comfort
to low scores. 1t may be more COM
Portable to play in a pair of gloves,
but unless they are properly made
they will certainly interfere with
your success. and at best gloves are a
handicap. However, some manufac-
turers are making gloves that serve
pretty well, if you must have protec-
ton. The best gloves permit all of
the fingers and pretty nearly the
whole inside of the hand to come in
contact with the club handle.
There is a feeling of sureness and
certainty about IA club when you can
actually grip it in your fingers that is
lost whenever a glove is put on.
Personally. it is rarely that l wear
gloves during round of golf In the
summer months / find that when the
club is properly gripped | do not de-
velop callouses. nor do | experience
any other hand difficulties of which
many players complain. The proper
use of the finger grip eliminates cal
louses. My hands harden, but i never
develop a thick ridge of skin which
you see on the palms of many players.
a callous is bad for golfer not only

because it is unsightIy, but because il
interferes with the Indispensable
sense of touch.
BY playing fairly regular through
out the fall months, my hands grow
accustomed to the change in the
weather, and | seldom experience any
inconvenience from the cold. When I
have donned gloves | have had an inn
mediate fall-off in the quality of my
game.
Clothing, too, in the colder weather,
is apt to interfere with your stroke
unless it is free enough to give you
plenty of shoulder room. The man
who puts sweater under a coat that
is not big and roomy can't play golt
in his best form. Tight clothes mea 4
poor golf. Plenty of room under the
arms is Indispensable.
1t may be timely to remark here
that when playing in frosty weather
one should not take it for granted
that greens are fast merely because
they are hard. Unless a green hap
pened to he in unusually good condi e.
tion before n frost. the grass is APT
to be in clusters that are stih and
impede the rolling ball greatly.
If the condition of the ground is
such that your club face gets wet l.
is well to have a piece of chalk to rub
over it after each stroke. This helps
the club to grip the ball at the
moment of impact
A man, or woman either succeeds II

he puts into the game. And cloth"
