Building Material.
FROM LUXURY TO NECESSITY

When the automobile was first pre-
sented to the farmer he bought il
If he bought it at all, as a pleasure
vehicle. Now he is buying automobile
trucks to do his hauling. Government
figures show that as an average all
over the country it costs Is cents to
haul ton of farm products a mile
with motor truck where it costs SO
.cnets to haul ton OF products with
horses.
2 With this opportunity Of reducing
his hauling costs so per cent it is only
natural that the farmer should be
turning to the motor truck as a means
Of getting his produce into town.
This matter of hauling is only one
of the things in which the farmer is
beginning to consider very carefully
the cheapest way of doing everything.
He has come to realize that every
hour he spends in doing unproductivc
labor means an increase in the cost
Of producing his yearly crop, and
hence a decrease in the net profit fol
the, years work. He is coming &c
realize the great importance of time
and labor saving.
This is one Of the reasons why the
small electric plant is becoming suck5
a factor in farm life and work. Accu-
rate figures are not available, but it
is quite reasonable to assume that st
least 100000 farms in America arc
being served by these electric plants.
| Electric motors, by doing the pump
ing, grinding, churning, separating,
and a hundred, other farm tasks either

one-man job, and the farmer appre-

this but electricity on a fam through
its giving CT bright, clean and safe
electric light gives service which is
NOT only appreciated by the farmer
but by his wife and every member of

Making Law 0dious.

The odiousness of sumptuary legis-
lation was never, we are inclined TO
think, more Extensively displayed than
in the proposals for the enforcement OF
the prohibition amendment to the con.
stitution. The amendment itself is SUI
iiciently unwelcome 10 a large proper
ton and probably a majority OF the
people OF the United States. But # Il
were the most welcome thing that
benevolent wisdom ever devised, it
would be in danger of suffering Hire
pute through the methods which its
propagandists are now proclaiming and
are threatening TO employ.
We have hitherto commented upon
their scandalous demand that in prose
cutions for alleged violations of the
prohibition law the onus probandi shall
be thrown upon the defendant, and a
man accused perhaps through malice
and spite-of such violation shall be
considered guilty unless and until he
proyes his innocence. That would be.
OF course, a Hat reversal OF one of the
oldest, most characteristic and most
universally respected principles OF An
CLOS saxon jurisprudence; il would be
repugnant to the just and moral sense
of the nation; and il would inevitably
open wide the door to monstrous abuses.
Ii would make il possible for a per-
fectlv innocent man TO be subjected TO
heavy fine and imprisonment, at the
living word OF some enemy, and would
make blackmail a common and success
ful occupation.
Now we are assured that the law as
il has been enacted contains another
similarly offensive and revolutionary
proviso. According to a pamphlet ex-
planatorv of the enforcement law which
has been put forward under the appar-
emit authority of Wayne b. Wheeler. the
chief legal adviser Of the Anti-Saloon
leaguc. "No person is excused from tes-
tifving in a liquor case on the ground
that his evidence would tend 10 incrim-
mate him. That is To say. any man
may be compelled to testify against
himself. Anyone suspected of violating
the law may be put on the witness
stand and compelled to confess his yio-
lation. under penalty Of fine or impris-
onment for contempt of court. OF
course the proviso that he shall not be
prosecuted on account Of the testimony
thus given is not worth the scrap OF
paper on which IL j. recorded.
Bv such provisions, prohihitionists
are making their law fepugnant to The
confidence and respect Of the people .
and such law can never be effectively
enforced arvey's Weekly.
