Fear and ignorance. Fear is the

Why Newfoundland is important.

One importance of Newfoundland is
its geographical position. st. Johns,
the chief port and capital Of the coun-
Try, Is 1000 miles nearer England
ilhan is New York. In fact, ii Is only
l4G6 miles from the coast OF Ireland,
50 greatly does the Atlantic shrink
of the coast OF Newfoundland. That
is why this unique country has had the
distinction of receiving the first t,ans-
Atlantic wireless message at ST.
Johns In 1901 and also why the first
nonstop transatlantic airplane flight
Started from the same vicinity. The
Cape Race light Is the first greeting
from America to ships on the north
ern route from Europe, and 1t is the
last to flash godspeed to cast-bound
vessels Newfoundland is verify the
stepping stone between America anu

Why Cultivation Ia Imperative.

A scientific reason for the value Of
cultivation OF tllth In agriculture has
been suggested by an interesting en-
plllary phenomenon reported in Ger
many. A block Of plaster of paris or
other porous material was moistened'
with salt solution, and on drying 1t
was found that evaporation withdrew
the salt, depostng It at the surface.
Hoeing or stirring the soil facilitates
evaporation By exposing q greater to-

Science, concludes that the rising OF

most prevails. The Itoumanian cor

writes;
'l'Leir report states that until re-
Gently ii had been thought that the
system was purely question OF
economies. People did not wish to
Distribute their lands and wealth be-
tween several children. but the, GUS
tom had now become Independent OF
land questions. II was quite clear
that the 'single.child family did be-

up idle and self-indulgent. If they
were landed proprietors their farms
were worked by others, necessltatlng
payment OF heavy wages.
Farmers began to understand that
tile slngle-child system meant their
ruin. hut the custom was deeply root
ed and the people were very conserva-
Tive. People who had several children
were actually despised.
"Ancther reason for the single-chilt
system was feminine vanity; women
thought that by avoiding childbirth
they would remain young and enjoy

PUBLIC INDEBTEDNESS

President Harding said more than at first
was credited to the words he used when he talk
ed upon the public finances at the budget reform
meeting. His words carried a sentiment and
warning that should be taken to heart by every
person living in the United States. Taxpayers
should study them and should reason out the rem
edy that is within their reach and use it.
Among the very pithy statements made by
the president is this:
There is not . meance in the world today like
that of growing public Indebtedness and mounting
public expenditures. There has seemingly grown
up an impression that public treasures are mex
haustible, and a conviction that no efficiency and
no economy are ever thought of in public eX-
pense."
These words carry world of truth, truth
that should have been recognized many years ago.
It has ever been the policy of those in office
from the very humblest to the one with the great
est title-to appear TO those who assisted them to
shat office, to be the benevolent and kindly gen.
-leman who is in a position to scatter favOrs-at
the expense Of the gOvernment-among them And
t has been the attitude among those who support
ed the successful candidate to seek from him all
The favOrs possible and many that are impossible.
This has been the excuse for the creation of
boards, commissions, committees and other pub
c official agencies in the United States govern
nent. So many were created during the time Of
ne world war and their duties were so mixed and
interviewer with each other, that the situation
oalied out some most vicious attacks, and from,
hose to whose party the extra and expensive
ereatons were meant to favor, few Of the hard
ast criticisms came.
In sounding The warning of retrenchnent in
governmental expenditures and the elimination
f useless and supeInumerary board, the presi-
lent is taking the very attitude any sound mind
d business man would take who desires to stop
he ever increasing expense account. His is a fit
md timely move for the benefit of all the people
f the United States. Those who pay the taxes
provide the running expense Of this nation sure
y cannot bat feel that the right man is at the
lead Of affairs at Washington
