TRADE CONDITIONS

Impatience at the slow, in some lines,
indeed, apparently painful. progress be-
ing made in general trade, and pessimis-
tic outgivings bred of further recessions
in the so-called barometer trades, iron,
steel, coal and coke, cannot disguise the
fact that while trade is trifle less active
than last week and not so good as year
ago, it is much better than it was two to
four months ago The irregularity pre-
viously noted in different lines continues,
activity is still largely confined to the
apparel trades, unemployment is marked
in many industrial centers, wage reduce
lions are numerous, the general price
movement indicates that many lines still
seek sterilization, and the railways, one
of the country's really basic industries,
report lessened volume of business
moving as compared with previous weeks
and years. On the other hand, the es
sential sodndness of theory that the cor
ner was really turned early in the year
IN the leading apparel trades cannot be
denied. Reports from leading textile in
dustries, cotton, silk and wool manufac-
turing, indicate largely increased con-
sumption; the reports from retail trade

ANALYSIS OF FARM BUSINESS
Extensive Studies Have Been Con.
Quoted by Department of AgricuI-
ture During Past Year.

In order to put at the disposal of
farmers Information which will en-
able them to place their farming op-
erations on a more businesslike basis,
the United States Department of Agri-
culture has conducted extensive
studies in farm business analysis. Dur
ing the last year 400 records were OBJ
tanned in farm business analysis sur
veys on two general crop and live
stock areas in Iowa, 300 on a fruit and
truck area in Florida, 1876 on a gen.
eral farming area in New Hampshire,
80 on a similar area in Ohio, 100 on
a cooperative tractor and farm Or
ganization study in two areas in Ohio
Several of these surveys have been in
progress for a number of years
Similar studies on specialized types
of farming are being made in co-opera-
ton with state agriculture colleges
In Kentucky the tobacco crop on Is
farms in each of two areas has been
intensively studied, with a complete
farm survey record aiken on many Of
the farms at the end of the year. In
New Jersey about 100 enterprise sur
veys records were obtained on tomato
and potato farming.

1T PAYS TO SHELTER
ALL FARM EQUIPMENT
Winter Is Proper Time for Max.
ing Needed Repairs.
Careful inspection of All Implements
Should Be Made and Everything
Got in Readiness for Farm OPP
erations in Spring.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture
Much of the loss and ANNOYANCE
caused by breakage of farm equipment
may be avoided by careful inspection
and repair of weak parts before the
seasons rush begins.
The proper time for making repairs
is during the winter and at times
when the regular farm work is not
urgent, specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture say.
AS the season advances, implements
which will be needed for the next
farming operations should be gone over
and given any attention required to
make them ready for immediate use
If the farm machinery is not properly
housed during periods of disuse, it is
all the more important that it should
be given a careful overhauling. At
ter inspecting the implement, tighten
ing bolts, strengthening weak parts,
and renewing broken pieces, the nee
essary painting should be done. Ere
quent applications of dark metallic
paint, consisting either of red lead or
venetian red and raw linseed oil, not
only improve the appearance of farm
implements, but add greatly to their
durability.
This is an age when appearances
count, and farmers standing in the
community frequently is governed by
the appearance of his farm equipment.
The man who spends his spare mo-
ments in the repair of fences and
gates and maintaining neat appear
ance of the entire farm has a better
chance of becoming leader in his
community than the man whose farm
has a slovenly appearance.

A WIDE SPREAD COMMUNIST PLOT

ssDocumentary evidence has been discov.
cred in Paris of wide spread communist
plot, looking to the overthrow of the
''bourgeois" governments Of France,
Italy and Spain. The date fixed for the
event is May /, 1921, and the documents
seized by the authorities show that the
scheme was financed from the United
States The LIST of May has always been
favorite date for radical and anarchist
conspiracies, and it is no surprise that
that day should have been chosen for the
latest attempt in that direction, but it is
rather disturbing that the financing of the
enterprise should have come from this
side of the Atlantic. The French author
tiles appear to have the situation well in
hand; and it is expected that two COM
munist members of the Chamber of Dep
uties will be arrested for their connection
with it.

Thou Shalt Not Covet.

Some one has said that covetousness
is the supreme sin of today. This is
no new truth, for covetousness has al
ways been the supreme sin of every
age. Through the words of the proph'
cts in Old Testament times, God put
the responsibility for rebuklng this sin
on his servants who taught the people
and who led them in spiritual things.
In Isaiah's time, God said: For the
lnluuitles Of his covetousness | smote
him." Paul placed covetousness In
the same category as idolatry. The
great soul-destroylng sins recorded
in the Word of God all had their root
in coyetousness. Even Jesus warned
His hearers Of its seductive influences
when He said: Take heed and be-
ware Of covetousness."
