4 GROWING
NUISANCE

Speed maniacs are becoming too
great and promiscuous a nuisance in
this country.
AS we have remarked in these col
umns before, it is quite time to put
an effectual curb on their speeding
and manning and killing. The peo-
pie they MAIN or kill are of use to So
ciety. They are not.
If fines will not check them, jail
sentences will.
In Chicago the trafficers in illicit
booze had the city by the hroat.=They
were powerful, arrogant, and con-
temptuous of the law, the city, the
state and the government.
But one prominent offender sudden
ly found himself before Federal Judge
Lands. He is now in the federal pris-
on at Fort Leavenworth. The booze
ring is panic stricken, and the lid is
down so tight it couldn't be Jared
off with dynamite.
If it can be done with booze it can
be done with speeding.
The average motorist is law abiding
and considerate of the rights of 9TH
ers, but he suffers for the wild and
criminal recklessness Of the speeders.
Appeals to reason and fines have
had no effect upon these public null
sances.
The only recourse left to the pub
lie is to put these fellows where they
belong.
One good jail sentence will do the
work in this community. The rest Of
the maniacs will take to cover and
suddenly develop into remarkably
good Indians. Z

ship their goods abroad, but they find
the foreign markets in many cases
practically closed to them, because
foreign made goods are sold for less
than we can make them.
Thus we are deprived of much of
CIR foreign trade, and factories arr
dischar sing thousands of their err
ployees. Some are ahutting Gown en-
tirely.
Then again, American manufacture
ers are up against the humping of
foreign made goods into this country
for less than we can produce them
here. If this condition prevails in
future to any considerable extent
more millions will be walking the
streets in search of employment.
So much for our era of assinine pro-
fiteering and price boosting.
But when we listen to the piper we
must expect to pay for his music.
The hour for payment has arrived.

WHERE SOME OF THEM GO

There has been much discussion
and alarm over the shortage of quail
fled teachers in Wisconsin. The last
issue of School Life states that
American teachers are in great de-
mand in Peru. The schools Of that
coun Try are being reorganized and
are in need Of teachers. No doubt
the lure of a strange country has
attracted number Of our teachers
away from the states where they are
sorely needed.

Fond du Lac. Wis.,-The early bird

of two Illinois hunters, names I'M

had not opened, the police forgot to

TOBEEXPECTED

When the people of the United
States took advantage of the war
situation to go into the profteering
game they neglected to take one all
important precaution.
They failed to look beyond the gol-
den hue of their own noses.
AS a result Of this profiteering
craze the cost of everything we pro
duce is sky high, because all labor and
materials used have been boosted to
the limit Of possibility.
Here is the aftermath.

Curing Onions in the Field.

Onions are sometimes allowed to
cure in windrows in the field, and if
the weather is clear, yellow and red
varieties can be handled successfully
in this manner. It is preferable,
however, to place them in Slated
crates soon after topping and pile in
open sheds or in stacks in the field.
In the latter case the piles should be
covered with temporary roofs for pro-
lection from rain. Exposure of white
varieties to damp weather in the field
will almost invariably prove fatal,
and they should be placed in a cur
ing shed, where advantage can be
taken of clear weather and protec-
ton can bet given during rainy
periods.
