UNE nERoUN WITT
PRICES ARE HIGH
It's the Fault Of the Paper Dollar.

When a man has but 500 In bank
and issues three 90-day notes for 500
each, based on the bank deposit as Sc
curity, the value Of those notes soon
falls very decidedly. In other words.
the average creditor would feel that
he ought TO have two or even three
such notes before he had paper sufli-
cient to equal the value of that 500
in gold that lies in the bank.
This is approximately what has hap
pened with the worlds currency. So
much paper has been issued In the
form of notes, credits, bonds and SINH
lar "promises to pay" that its value
when compared with actual food and
clothing and other necessities has
fallen tremendously. We express this
same idea the other way around by
saying prices have gone up"
There is no reason to expect rapid
retirement of paper promises-war
bonds the world over must run for
some years yet to come, and private
credits cannot be withdrawn soon.
Therefore this cause of high prices
will probably be with us for some time
yet-several years, In fact.
In the case of farm crops, at least,
there is another very good reason why
prices are high. Many more mouths
are to be fed than formerly and this
condition also Is likely to persist. War
devastated fields cannot immediately
regain their former productivity. The
farmer seems to be secure In the as
surance of good crop prices for Ions

SPEND WHAT WE DON'T SAVE
Michigan War Savings Organization
Trying to Reverse General
Practice.

Most Americans have been living on
the theory of Saving what we don't
spend" The War Savings organiza-
ton for Michigan is trying to induce
the people of the state to transpose
two words in this phrase and make 1t
spending what we don't save"-to
promote wise spending, intelligent saw
ing and safe Investment. On the
subject of wise spending the treasury
department says:
"Thls means spending preceded by
thought. 1t implies the balancing or
all needs, present and future, ard or
the means Of meeting these needs, ana
then spending In such q way as to
meet the most urgent ones. In es-
sence 1t is a sort of budget making.
"Wise spending sees to 1t that all
the income Is not spent on the first
needs or desires, lest other more
urgent needs or desires appear.
"The determination of what Is wise
spending must rest with the individ-
ual, but he must be helped to over
come the temptation to satisfy present
necessities to the neglect OF future
needs.
a., the other hand, urgent necessi'
ties of today must not be neglected
for the petty ones Of tomorrow. Pro-
vision must me made for a rainy day
and unforeseen emergencies, but eco
nomic stability implies also some cap
ital with which to turn around, or to
take advantage Of opportunity"

ENGLAND MUST IN
CREASE WHEAT YIELDS

According to the editor Of the Unit
ed States Experiment Station Record,
Director Russell of the Rothamstead
tEnglandD experiment station says
that "the English farmers task In the
future will be to increase his yield"
But he further states: 1--WE must
strengthen the straw, improve the
tiIlering, regulate to some extent the
development Of grain and control the
pests. Until these are all solved we
cannot hope to get much further with
Increased wheat yields"
The interesting part of this is that

FERTILIzE LITERALLY
Says Professor Agee.

81 am convinced that the av-
erage individual loses his chance
for the largest net income from
land by failure to fertilize lib
orally. When one lacks capital
1t is perhaps a serious matter
to run up big bill for ferti-
lizers, but when labor and seeds
are to be risked it is poor bust
ness not TO have enough plant
food to make a good crop. Poor
land does not get one anywhere
at least in the direction he
wants to travel."-Alva Agee,

In making ocean soundlngs. The

Faller Defeats
Local Athlete
In Title Race
Ritola Is Second in Battle
for National Senior Cross
Country Championship
Special Correspondence Of The Trlbur,


BOSTON. Nov. 21.-Fred Faller. of
the Dorchester Club, national ten-mile
champion, won the senior cross-countrv
championship of America over the
Franklin Park course here this after
noon. The race was run in binding
snowstorm, which interfered greatly
with the progress of the athletes and
accounts for the somewhat slow time of
the winner. Faller was clocked in
29:01 for the five and three-ouarter
miles.
William Ritola, of the Finnish Amer
lean A. c.. New York, who won the
JUNIOR cross country title November 13
at New York, was second, about sew
enty-tive yards behind the Dorchester
man. Ritola ran fine race, and had
ne been accustomed to the course would
have defeated Faller, who went to the
front early, and led practically all the
way.
Pat Flynn, sporting the colors of the
Paulist A. c., of New York, was third
about forty yards behind Rtola
Flynn's fine work was largely respon-
sible for the Paulist team finishing sec
ond for club honors, Dorchester, with
rs points, barely beating the New
Workers for first place by points. The
only other club to finish a team was the
Stoughton (Mass.) Catholic Club, which
accounted dior third place, with score
of 80
The 1919 title was won by Max Bob
land, of the Paulist A. c., who negoti-
ated the siX-mile Van Cortlandt Park
course, in New York, in 34:31. Bohlan
as a member Of the Paulst team, de-
Tended his title to-day, but found the
going rather tough and finished well
back in the field.

Analysis Bears
Out Superiority
OF Ohio State
Iowa, in Fifth Place, Leads
Team Scoring i'm West
ern Conference Title Race

CHICAGO. Nov. 21-Superiority of
Ohio States football eleven, Western
Conference champion, over the other
teams Of the "Big Ten" is borne out in
an analysis of the offensive and defen-
sive records Of the contestants for the
title. The Buckeyes finished second in
the number Of points scored in games
between conference elevens, and were
first in holding opponefts away from
heir goal.
Only three teams-Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Chicago-crossed the Ohio
goal and no team crossed it more than
once. The team scored So points in
conference games against 20 for its
opponents.
An unusual feature shown in the
analysis of the seasons results is that
Iowa, which finished fifth, was first in
scoring, with IS points, while Michigan,
were close to Ohio's record defen-
sively.
The tightness Of mhny of the games
and the closeness Of the race are re-
f1ected in the fact that the ten elevens
altogether scored only 420 points, or
an average of only about seven for
each team in each game.
Ohio State proved itself the greatest
finisher developed in the Western Con-
ference in many years. Four of its
five victories we're won in the final
minutes, the victory over Illinois COM
ing on a play which was not completed
until the final whistle. In each instance
the perfect forward passing of Hoge
Workman, sophomore quarterback,
brought victory to the Buckeyes, Illi-
nois, Wisconsin, Michigan and Chicago
falling before the accuracy of his arm.
Wisconsin produced powerful
eleven, which is shown by the figures,
but it lacked consistency. 1t probably
would have won the title, however, had
it not fallen before Workman's passes.
Illinois, which nearly won the title
wa5 kept in the race largely by Ralph
Fletcher, for his seven field goals ac-
counted for 81 of the Indians 56 points
and his goals from touchdowns brought
additional markers. The Indians made
few touchdowns and their defensive
RECORD was not SO good as that of other
teams.
Michigan and Chicago, while making
great records, lacked offensive power
Indiana made good showing, but had
q weak schedule, while with the other
teams there apparently was ability
neither to carry the ball nor to stop it..
The record of each team. including
only conference games, follows:

this year. Four regulars froni last
years team have returned, and Grote
who starred with the freshman team
last season, will be candidate for the
varsity. Besides these men a host of
material will be on hand for this after

schedule this year that any Maroon
court team has ever attempted. 1t in

monograph in the London Finan- cial Times on the history of the old Citizens Bank of Louisiana, at New Orleans, reveals the origin of the name Dixie Laad''-the term applied now to all the southern states and preserved
 in the famous southern war song, Dixie" Prior to the Civil war the Citizens bank, having the power to issue paper notes. issued several mil lions of bills in denominations of S1O and SEQ, but mostly S10. The $1o bills were engraved in French with the French word Dix featured on their backs. The bills became known as
 "Dixies," and this money becoming [ popular, Louisiana was referred to as | the Land of Dixies," or Dixie land. Eventually the term was so broadened
