Farms Go Begging.

Nine farms in Colerain township
are said to be without anyone to
farm them this year. Twenty-one
tenant houses are vacant. This is a
fair example of the conditions over
the entire country. Professor Ras-
mussen states that 8100 farms in
Pennsylvania are not being planted
One need seek no further as to the
cause Of the high cost of living. And
so long as young men flock to the
centres of population, leaving the
farms without labor to plant and
harvest the crops, the cost of living
will keep on soaring. One philoso-
pher has suggested that the scheme
upon which the German army was
founded should be followed, except
that in sending every boy to the
army for three years, an industrial
army be recruited and every boy
have to serve on a farm for six
months for three years. Something
must be done if the United States is
to do her share towards feeding the
world.-News, Oxford.

Fishermen Think Sturgeon will
Returm


1t is now believed by the oldest
fishermen along the Delaware bay
shores that there will be this year
the beginning of the return of the
sturgeon and in much larger num-
bers than ever before. Several have
been already caught in the shad nets
this spring. About forty years ago
they were in great abundance in the
bay, and scores of fishing crews were
after then equipped with modern
seines and equipments for the caring
of the roe and meat, which brought
a high price. The demand caused
the determination of the fish. The
prevailing prices then were one dol
lar for bucks, and four dollars for
roe fish. At present the price for a
large roe fish is from one hundred
dollars up according to size. There
are number of the old sturgeon
fishermen at Cedar Beach who are
getting their nets ready to see if the
fish have come back in schools large
enough for them to invest IN new
nets and boats which are both very
costly. At one time this industry
gave employment to more than three
hundred men and boys in manning
the boats and packing the roe and
meat for the city markets. AS the tan.
ners have found use for the hide it is
thought that this will keep the price
much higher than before. At cne
time the skins were thrown into the
bay as being of no use.--Index,
