FARM BOOKKEEPING.

The Department of Agriculture has
been offering farmers a brief course
ii, accounting. In fifteen States where
the courses have actually been given
it is reported that many farmers have
avafled themselves of it.
Tfais is a distinct advance IN farm
ing methods. In the past. farmers
haye known too little about their ac-
tnai profits-or losses. They have not
known exactly Row much it cost to
raise specific crops. and have had no
means of knowing whether the cash
return received from the sale Of those
crops was at all commensurate with
the price of materials and the labor
put into them.
Perhaps the difficulties of figuring
out income tax returns have driven
farmers to this progressive step. Per-
faps. it is due. to growing business
sense. and the fact that with increas-
ing cost of labor and machinery the
farmer realizes that he must know
where he is coming out financially ev-
cry year.
Whatever the cause. it is a sensi-
BILE step. 1t should lead the farmer
TO see the wisdom in improving has
own marketing facilities. in co-operat-
ing with fellow-farmers, in running
his place on more business-like
basis, in solving the problems of keep
ing the young people on the farm ano
improving the conditions of his hired
help.

CHILDREN'S YEAR PAYS.

The Childrcns Bureau of the Dc
partment of Labor designated last
year as "Children's Year Over H.
0O0. .G0G women in some $4,000 COM
munities all over the country coop
Grated with the department in advan-
cling the cause of children. It is graf
flying to know that permanent meas
ures for the welfare of children have
come from the campaign.
Some of the results have been the
legislation, accomplished or proposed,
for the protection of maternity and
infancy; pre-school and school care
of the child; a fairer status for the
child born out of wedlock, the es-
tab]ishment of clinics and health
nursing bureaus; an inc Use IN the
number Of play grounds and recrea-
ton centers; children brought back
and kept in school as the result of the
school campaigns, and a general ad-
vance all along all lines Of activity
which provide children with better
STRAIT in the world and help them
along when once they are started.
In 80 states the Children's Year
Welfare committees have been made
permanent bodies, and it is intended
that the work which has proved SO
effective shall not be allowed to lag
There is little doubt that all the states
will carry on, and that every year
from now on will be Children's Year
in every community. No work could
be richer in promise nor in sure re-
wards.

his bonus will mean direct con-
( .frIsutson by the average American

sSosye more than that. There is the
xohlem OF raising the money, and
me present financial situation any

orner President Taft points out
-.ssts
That even with. our heavy taxes, the
coan4ry is already facing a deficit for
current fiscal year of s3,o0O,0o0,o 900
and tie expected bonus will increase
this deficit to $1,000, 100000.
Some have suggested raising the
fllnds BY increasing the income tax
sA treasury expert says that if the
normal income tax rate were raised
from 8 per cent to Is per cent, it
would fail to provide the $4,000, ,0o0,-
Bea Wanted.
The proposal Of a new bond issue is
REGARDED with alarm by bankers. They
say that in the present state of the
securities market such an issue could
not .be foated except at a high rate
of interest. That would force all our
war bonds still lower. with consequent
loss to owners and disturbance of, fl
nance in general The cost Of living
would be forced up higher.
There IS the alternative Of imposing
q direct consumers tax on all pur-
chases. This would probably be the
fairest kind Of tax for the purpose,
Sutsit would be Infinitely troublesome
Us well as expensive.
Il the majority of citizens consider
II desirable to grant the bonus in the
face of these facts, no one can proper
II object. But at least let the public
realize the situation clearly before
hand.

AN HONEST DAYS work.

can honest days work for an hon
est days pay" is Charles NJ. Schwab'S
prescription to cure many Of the ills
from which we suffer as people He
said. iii an address to the American
institute of Mining and Metallurg.ca
Engineers: When we teach, through
our engineering ability and our meth
ods, that the prosperity of the whole
country. whether for capitalist or Ia.
borer, depends on doing an homes,
days work for an honest days pay,
all these theoretical questions of the
high cost of living will naturally dis
appear
Isn't he the old-fashioned man.
Those ideas are archaic. Nobody
even thinks them out loud in the So
siety of workers today. But he goes
further. Mr. Schwab finds that Ger
many's position in the steel indus
try was due to that same fomely old
virtue He points out that Germany
was second only to the United States
in steel production when the war in
terrupted things. And yet. with ali
of its production and ability and de-
velopment there has not been a. single
great invention or process in the de-
velopment of iron and steel that has
come out Of Germany. What is the
reason for this so-called efficiency?
think the basis of it is the giving Of
an honest days work for an honest
days pay
There you have it. Efficiency then,
isn't the machince-like equipment of
industry to the last belt and newest
contra ption It isn't only the perfect
coordination of parts to the whole.
nor the unceasing driving Of people
from the cradle to the grave. No,
there's the everlasting human equa-
ton, never better exemplifed than in
this phrase: "An honest days work
for an honest days pay
A lever with which any nation
might move the earth.

SHAME OR HONOR?

Peace by resolution" may become
necessary as a last resort. Such So
luton, however is tolerable only on
condition that u ssib!e efforts made
in accordance with established GUS
tom and tradition have failed. Has
it come yet to the alternative OF
peace by resolution, Or nothing?
The procedur. proposed at present
by Congress. whether necessary or
not, is inevitably attended by shame
and humiliation. It means making
peace by subterfuge; it means beg
ging Germany to agree to terms
which the United States, as victor in
the war, should impose on Germany
without question, and gives Germany
chance to throw those terms in our
face. There is additional shame IN
the fact that the resolution asks Ger
many in making this separate peace
with US, to acknowledge the force OF
the terms imposed by the treaty OF
yersailles-which the United States
Congress has refused to ratify.
We approach Germany as if Ger
many were an equal in this negotIa-
ton. we seek to utilize the benefits OF
the Versailles treaty while evading its
:esponS '.::ltics, and thus we invite
the contempt Of our enemies, our al
lies and the whole world.
Added to these moral considera tons
is the legal objection. made by many
constitutional authorities. that peace
negotiations are proprely originated
| not by the legislative but the eXecu-
| tive department, and also the prac-
tical difficulty that, for whatever
reasons. the President is sure to op-
pose any such resolution.
The vast majority of Americans
want to make leace by the regular
and self-respecting procedure Of rati-
fyins. with few reservations. the
treaty made at Versailles by the pow.
ers that defeated Germany, and rati-
fed already without reservation BY
every one but the United states. Tha
treaty is in the hands Of the Presi
! dent. He can return it TO the Senate

The London Morning Post express
es a similar view, explaining:
There cannot be a shadow OF
doubt that the advance Of Gen. Won

practical value of the treaty. Had
the provocation been overlooked it

position to criticize France. 1t is
held, with good reason. that France
in setting about of her. own initiative
to teach the Germans a lesson in
keeping treaty pledges has done her
allies valuable service.
The unfortunate thing about it is
not that France has done what she
did. but that France was driven to
take this action alone as a result OF
the persistent failure Of the United
States to ratify the peace treaty and
participate in it's enforcement. It is
generally agreed that if the machin-
cry Of the League Of Nations were in
full operation, with this country an
active member. Germany would not
have given the provocation.
