Spring Is not only season for gath

COUNTY AGENT NOTES
Rockcastle County

The farmers on Brindle Ridge and
in Hiatt section are getting along
fine with their work considering
the rainy weather.
One striking feature about this
section is the increased grass acre
age which. is on the increase thru
out the entire county. This shows
that the future of Rockcastle will
be for more and better live stock.
A man who grows grass on his farm
is a man who has a vision. More
Grass should be the slogan of each
farmer until we have enough grass
to Craze our home stock and enough
hay to feed through the winter.
In this section there are five or
six cream separators which are
being operated by the mothers and
wives at a profit.
Mrs. sam MaHarge, Hiatt, has
two common grade cows which
brought her an income of $3.50 in
cash per year until she got a sep
aratOr. She paid S65 for separator,
S. for cream cans and charged it to
the cows. The cows paid for them
in three months besides furnishing
a sufficient quantity for home con-
sumption for five TO seven people in
the family. Since, the cows have
papered the entire house, painted
floor space, put up screens and
bought clothing.

to ROckcastle county women is,

RICE A PAYING CROP.
Jacksonville Times-union.

During the entire year OF 1918 the
United States exported to Japan less
than thousand pounds Of rice, yet,
in contrast with last year, more than
900 pounds of that food were
shipped to that Asiatic country in the
first quarter of 1920-at the rate of
100000 pounds year. In each
month of the present year we have
exported to foreign lands from so TO
200 per cent more rice than was ex-
ported from the United States in a
whole year in the period from 1910, to
1914.
Rice is eaten by probably more
people in the world than any other
cereal. The vast hordes of Asia
know practically no other food. The
best In grown in the Southern states
of America. The rather astounding
figures given above seem to indicate
that the superiority of American rice
is receiving worldwide recognition.
Florida possesses great advantages
for the culture of this cereal Of trop-
ical origin. There are in this state
many thousand of acres of low-lying
land easily submerged during the
period when this crop needs TO be
covered with water. Its climate is
ideal for this culture. In view of
these facts and of the great tracts to
be found all over the state whereon
rice was cultivated in colonial days
it is rather ludicrous to see COM
ments in the press of the state re-
joicing over demonstrations that rice
can actually be produced profitably
in Florida.
There is a story connected with
the history of the state of a report
by a British governor to his home
government that party of North
Carolinians visiting the colony pro-
nounced it better adapted to the pro-
duction of large crops of superior rice
than We're the Carolinas.
Commercial rice, in which the pol
ish" and bran have been removed,
and with them most of the flavor,
still contains three times as much
protein, or flesh (tissue) forming and
repairing element as the potato and
two-thirds as much as wheat; It con-
tains about four times as much of
the energy producing and heating
elements as the potato and more than
wheat. But if the polish" and bran
were left, as in brown" rice, the
value Of rice as food would be enor-
mously increased. 1t is the brown
rice that the Asiatics eat. They
would scorn the emasculated white
ride which western millers offer to
their customers
The future export demand for rice
promises to be even far beyond the
present unprecedented figures. The
domestic use of it grows greater
yearly. 1t is safe to grow rice for
profit.

New York Sun showing that since the
legislature set an arbitrary limit to
the amount Of rent the owner of a
dwelling or an apartment can derive
from his property, there has been a
remarkable tendency Of builders to
turn from the erection Of dwellings, and
apartments to construction of office
buildings, upon the rent OF which no
limit has been set. The Sun. referring
to this situation, states:
The result, therefore, has been that
to a large extent the interests which
apparently were only waiting a chance
to put up houses and apartment build
ings have abandoned their plans for
fear that with mounting building costs
and legislative meddling with rents
they would not be able to get an at
tractive return on their investment
before the period Of lower rents ar
rive"
1t is very generally true that when
legislation undertakes to override the
law Of supply and demand and fixes
the price of any article, it Injuries
rather than helps the people for
whose benefit it was intended.
With this country short 100000 to
100000 dwellings and thousands of
observation-disclosures, no law that man
can make with a veiw to preventing
high rents will bring about the es-
sentially important thing, namely, the
building of needed dwellings and
apartments. We may denounce high
rents to our hearts contsnt. we may
call the owner who demands a nigh
rent for dwelling or apartment 4
robber or a profiteer or by any other
name that lsoothes our feelings, we may
send him to the penitentlary or hang
him as high as Haman if that will as
suage. our resentment, but none Of
these things will get the dwellings
and the apartments built.
The housing situation must be
viewed from some other standpoint
than that of trying to force down rents
at the present time, for to the extent
of the activity in driving down rents
will we drive down the stimulus Of
large profits, without which builders
and investors will not risk money in
new building operations in these I'M
certain times.
The tremendous Importance of more
dwellings and of comfortable housing
accommodations for the working peo-
pie everywhere is strongly stressed by
Mr.. Tuttle, but no one has yet found
a. solution for the, housing problem
except through the building of more

HOUSING PROBLEM AND INDUS.
TRIAL WORK.

RECORD, Baltimore, Md
VINO has ever considered that it
mi ght be wise for towns and cities to
refuse permission for the building of
new factories until a way had been
provided for housing the employees?
That question is raised in a very in
teresting article on the housing prob
lem and it's relation to production and
contented labor by Morton C. futile.
Of the >Aberthaw Construction Com
pany, of Boston, published in this is
sue. Mr.. futile presents the housing
problem from some angles rarely con-
sidered.
A community, according to his view,
may lose instead of gaining by the es-
Enlistment of a new industry. An
undigested industry, says ne, is not an
asset, but a liability. An industry
which brings to community more la =
borers than can be properly housed
adds to the difficulty of the housing
situation of the people already there
and thus instead of being a benefit it
may really prove a serious injury.
This is a presentation of the housing
situation and its relation to industrial
activity as well as to the development
of spirit Of contentment on the part
of laborers, which needs very careful
study. The problem developed by the
demand for houses is very strongly
stated by Mr.. futile. 1t becomes the
duty of the people of the country to
find the solution.
Unfortunately at the present time
the federal reserve board and the
bankers of the country under it's lead
are discouraging credit for building
operations, and unwise legislation is
adding to the situation. This fact is
brought out clearly in an article in the

PROFESSOR OF STACKING
NEW TITLE FOR FARMERS

Topeka July 6-The title of pro
fessor of stacking" has been con-
ferred on old time farmers who have
mastered the art of stacking wheat
so that it will Withstand the effects
of wind and rain. Secretary j. G.
Mohler, of the state board of agri-
culture, who confers this degree at
the same time urges that these vet
eran farmers be pressed into SER
vice to teach the younger generations
tn so-called lost art" of stacking
grain
Pointing out the need OF finished
stackers because much of the wheat
crop must be held, either in gran
aries or stacks on the farm, Mr..
Mohler said:
"The older generation numbered
many men who could build stacks
that would stand against the wind
and thoroughly protect the grain
against the wind and the rain and
such stacks had the big advantage of
sweating the wheat and giving it
better color and quality"
