Those Rural PrOfiteers

And men relate that Mrs. Newly wed went to the grocery store to do her morning marketing. And she was determined that the grocer should not take advantage of her youth and inexperience.
 "These eggs are dreadfully small'' she criticized.
 q know it." he answered. "But that's the kind the farmer brings me. They are just fresh from the country this morning."
 "Yes," said the bride, land that's the trouble with those farmers. They are so anxious to get their eggs sold that they take them off the nest too soonw

GRAZING POLICY
 OF FOREST RESERVE
 UNDERGOES CHANGE

PHOENIX, Dec. 1S.-Grazing at
 present is the principal source of
 money return of the government from
 the national forests, as states the sec
 retary of agriculture, E. T. Meredith
 in his annual report to the president.
 Since 1915, adds the secretary, the
 grazing fees have been doubled, with
 the view of making them commensur-
 ate with current rental rates for the
 neighboring private lands of the same character. When the existing rates were established users of the range understood that they would remain in effect for five years, and many of the grazing permits were issued for the period. The value of the grazing privilege on many ranges subsequent ly advanced and considerable senti- ment in favor of an immediate further increase in the fees developed. The good faith of the government would be impaired by such a course. Fur thermore, to advance the fees at the present time would add seriously to the instability which confronts the national forest livestock industry be- cause of changing market conditions, and would be neither just nor good public policy.
 No policy has been laid down by congress for the guidance of the de- partment in the exercise of the ad- ministrative discretion, with which it has for 15 years been vested, to deter mine the conditions under which the use of the range should be permitted. If congress desires to prescribe such a policy, says Secretary Meredith, it should not take effect until after 1923, when the existing leases will ex- pire.
 Even in the absence of legislation, the department will make a classifica- tion of the ranges and fix new scale of charges, to be imposed in 1924, un- der which the fees will represent the actual grazing value of the particular portion of the range used by each permittee or group of permittees. Be- fore the new scale is determined, an opportunity will be given the local as sociations of national forest range users to submit any data regarding the fairness of the proposed fees which they may desire to present.

An Error of Omission

An Eldorado Springs minister tells this story: A white minister had just married a colored couple and in a facetious way remarked:
 "Id is customary to kiss the bride, but in this instance we will omit it."
 The groom was fully equal to the occasion and replied:
