OPEN WINTER
A|DSFARMERS
National Optimism Regarding
Crops Reflected in Md. BY
"Springtime" Conditions.

BALTIMORE, Jan. IA ma
tional optimism regarding agrlcul-
tural conditions, cheaper crops and
happier farmers Is spreading, Judg-
ing from reports from farming dis
tricts, and is being reflected IN
Maryland where some part OF the
State look like springtime," though
this is mid-winter.
WORK HAS BEEN sTEADl.
The explanation is chiefly tn open
weather which has marked the pres
ent winter, Generally sp,akinE, III"
farmer ends his major operations
early In November, and throughout
the winter carries all maintenance
expense without adding much or any
thing TO revenue. His farm bandS
have little work TO do, but their APP
petite continues strong. His horses
eat grain and do no work. His fat
tening cattle take no thought o.
their owners limited fodder supply
This year however. the men ana
horses have been at work almost
without interruption since April In
Howard county farmer returned
from the polls on November ., hauled
in the remaining hay and sowed his
last acre Ever since then he and
his neighbors have been doing the
blowing they normally would not do until
spring. The feed for the cattle has
gone entirely toward fatteninG them;
the ration generally needed for
warmth has not been necessary.
In other words, the. "jury-riS" Of
winter time has done colossal
amount OF work which otherwise
would have had to be rushed through
in the spring by added hired help
at higher cost, and at the same time
current expenses are actually below
normal.
SPIRIT OF ECONOMY.
Il think a general spirit pf economy
Is making its appearance in the farm
industry" said Gustavus 0ber. jr,
vice president OF the National Fer
tilizer Association. Farmers are
going TO ind II DC ssible 10 buy sup
plies more cheaply, living costs viii
be cheaper and farmers will be able
to practice many personal economies.
This will make the cost of prJduc-
bilizing themselves and production
costs reaching a lower level, the
farmers should be approaching an era
of prosperity. Add to TINS the need
for our farm produce abroad, and III"
whole profile n OF the farmer will be-
solved. If ways TO export what Eu-
rope needs can be found.

ALCOHOLIC INSANITY
GROWING IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO. Jan. 14.--Cases of in

DR.. James Whitney Hall.
DR.. Hall reported an increase of
80 per cent in alcoholic cases in De-
ccmbcr. 1920. over the last officially
wet" December, and of IL cent
in November. A slight increase was
noted in October over previous Oc-
tobers, while in September the in
crease was 80 per cent. Eventually,
however, the report said, "insani y
will be greatly decreased by pro-
hibition."

Of CUP Of CHEER

CHICAGO. March 12.-Prohibitlon
has made dances more naughty, ac-
cording to a report OF the Juvenile
Protective Association, which asserts
that more Objectionable dances are
now being danced than ever before.
The claw OF compensation" was the
way the matter was explained. The
report says:
I'm 1861 at 90 per cent OF the
dances immoral dancing was permit
ed. This year Objectionable dancing
was reported at over 20 per cent of
the places inspected.
Extreme dancing and jazz music
were noted in the more expensive
places. as well as in the cheaper ones.
There probably can be no fundamen-
tai improvement until the public taste
demands higher musical standards"
ut Is very true that If you take one
pleasure from man he will find COM
pensation In another" declared DR..
James Whitney Hall, noted alienist
THE dances will no doubt be faster
and more risque as the lid is tight
ened. Man must fnd some way to
himself for the thing that
has been taken away from him."
The Rev. John p. Brushingham, of
the morals commission, declared;

tact with at The Lowndale Hospital
used to say: 1T was my first drink
Now she says' 1T was my FIRST

Pinchot Seeks to Interest Presl.

BY NORMAN HAPGOOD.

Clifford Pinchot, professor Of for
cstry at Yale, and president OF the
National Conservation Association
called on President Harding yester-
day to enlist his interest in pre-
venting q serious crisis in the sup
ply OF timber for building pur'
poses.

This call had a singulariy dramatic
quality, since q similar crusade ty
Pinchot had much to do with over

The former controversy turned on the
question OF how the prohts from our

The other bill will be for national

United States there Ia. according to
Pinchot's presentation OF the ease
no relief to be expecte dy us from
any other part OF the world. He
thinks that Canada VIII not send US
any lumber to amount to anything
and that Mexico probably will not.
What is important to us Is the
weight of lumber that Is suitable TO
building In a temperate cline.
Next to the Pane-Aldrich act. II is
generally agreed that the controversy
between Pinchot and Baliinger had
more to do with the overthrow or
President Taft than any other thing.
Taft made the mistake of not facing
the facts seriously at an early enough
point. He did not like trouble. and
he accepted the view given to him by
his Secretary OF the Interior.
Pinchot's protests were continued
and emphatic. but, as the Administra-
ton stood pat. he went into open op-
position. with the result that the
facts uncovered made such an i'm
preston that Ballinger had to leave
the Cabinet. and Walter Fisher a
man prominently identified with con-
seryation, was put into his place.
The present controversy does not
coucern the Interior Department. II
has to do only with the Department
Of Agriculture.
Pinchot supported President Hard
Ing In the recent election, and II is
generally believed that the President
has a good sense OF danger ahead
Therefore, there is every reason to
suppose that he will take an interest
in the legislative fight that is sched-
uled for next month.
