With thousands of acres of land in ST.
Louis county producing nothing but rabbits and
deer tracks, the state should evolve some meth
cd whereby these acres will produce something
more than these. Farming should be popular
lied in some manner. Inducements should be
held out to cleared and productive acres. Soak
the spectators in them and give the money to
the man who lives on his acres, raises and ed
ucates his family, produces the foodstuffs we
all need. Do not penalize him. Help him.
Make it easier to settle up the country and to in
crease agricultural products. The state will
get it all back in later years whatever they may
advance today for the betterment of farming
conditions. 1t will all make for stability of
our country and our state. No man with good
farm home of his own, well titled farm, a
good, healthy family of boys and girls will be
found carrying red flag at the head of pro-
cession. Fewer farmers and an increase in
the population of the cities is now the rule Men
are focking to the cities instead of to the land.
Consumers are increasing and producers de-
|creasing. By the time we all get to the cities,
perhaps then we shall see our mistake and the
state and nation forced to wake up to our needs.
Something must be done to induce the making
|of more and more productive acres. And our
state is able to do something along so vital
proposition as this. We have the money need
led to do it and we have the unceared acres

Uncle Sam has plan in the back of his head
with which the drunken driver of a car or the
murderer on wheels is to be concerned He is
tired of fning these reckless speeders money
and is about to enact law where a man or
woman shows themselves to be unfit to sit at
the steering wheel, to take their cars away from
them for period of time. A money fine does
not in all cases have the desired effect. Human
life to some is too lightly considered With
millions of cars now running and with yet other
millions to come, something drastic must come
to our relief A law of the above kind would
no doubt help some.

Every time you advertise you are building your

Daylight saving will be an individual prop

cities however are adopting it. New York is
going to have it. To the man with his own time

need that vacation. But there seems a lot of
