The Fall of Ponzi.

Charles Ponzi, ex-convict will lose much of
that popular hero glamor he gained as a mush-
room inancier, and 1t will be good thing for
the country.
Publicity OF the exploits Of Ponzi no doubt
is justified from news standpoint, for readers
literally "eat it up" but it has done good
deal Of harm. In these days Of hectic fnancier-
ing, when the thoughts of SO many run to
speculative, rather than to productive enter
prises, the story OF Ponzi certainly does not
Hhelp to turn the public mind back toward
legitimate pursuit Of the honest dollar and wise
and conservative investment of the same.
In spite Of much bitter human experience in
losses and disappointments and the warnings
and admonitions Of the financially sophisticated
there are still many in this country who cling
to the belief that somewhere there is good
fairy in human form who has the power and
the will to turn their dollars into~eagles for
them if given the opportunity
Ponzi in the light of the earlier stories con-
corning his amazing success, seemed to be the
long sought Midas. The mystery which sur
rounded his transactions only added to the gen.
eral interest and the deception. He was be-
sieged by new clients and all over the country
people set about trying to initiate his method.
Speculative fever rose to new heights
But now Ponzi is branded as criminal. No.
only is he less than god, but he is unfit to
j be trusted by self respecting humans The
irridescent bubble he blew has been pricked
and hundreds of thousands will wonder how
they could have been so silly as to believe in

The Food Supply.
Detroit News.)

That the agricultural population of the
country has suffered very marked decrease
during the past ten years is a most significant
and interesting phenomenon. And unquestion-
ably, if the facts were known. the unusual and
extraordinary part of the exodus from the
farms has taken place since the beginning of
the European war in 1914 The simplest and
most apparent explanation is doubtless suite.
lent to account for this movement-it is purely
economic. And in this fact lies the hope that
it will not run to an extreme which will be
menacing
For, contrary to a very large body of theory
which is glibly set forth on every hand, there
is as yet no evidence that the shift has re-
suited in a lessening of the food supply in this
country 1t has not, in fact, even reduced the
volume Of those supplies which the country has
offered for export The agricultural industry
has not fallen down on the job though it has
sent into other industries very important
quota Of most efficient workers.
The rise in the price of farm products has
barely kept pace with the general advance in
prices and every special bid for a particular
article has met the response of generous offer
ings. Such fact is remarkable testimony of
the enormous resources Of this the greatest Of
American industries. The fact is that in the
days when Americas farm population was so
much larger than at present, but a mere frac-
ton Of the products of the farm ever reached
market at all. The prices offered for the goods
the farmer dad to sell called out only the best
of his stock and that which-was inferior or
which was grown in too great abundance, fire.
quently was permitted to waste because it's har-
vestfng did not pay the cost Of the labor
The American nation is a long way from the
hunger line still, but its thought for better
food supply may we'll be directed to giving to
the farmers better show in the markets, a
more efficient system of distribution and trans
portation and larger share of the money
which the consumer pays foeAthe farmers pro-
ducts. There will always be farmers enough
to feed all workers in other legitimate lines.

Immediately count again. The nor
