AN ANTI-VOLSTEAD DRIVE.

No wise friend of the prohibi-
ton principle will undcresti-
mate the importance and the
significance of the movement
which has been launched i'm this
country for the material modi-
fication of the Volstcad Enforce
'mcnt Act, nor will they make
the mistake of putting a false
Interpretation upon the motives
and character of the men who
who have identified themselves
with that cause. The aSsOcia-
ton of which +. De Witt Cavlcr
is the local head may, perhaps,
have weakened itself by putting
the repeal of the prohibition
amendment" i'm its title, as
though that were ~ initial aim,
whereas it is apparent. from its
announced program, that the
end which it really hopes to at
tain is such a revision o. the
federal enforcement law as will
put prohibition upon 4 basis
that will command popular
respect and end the deEloraliz-
ing conditions which hav: been
brought about by the provisions
of the existing statute.
The amendment itself is a
fact accomplished which no
amount of propaganda will
change. for the moral sense of

mcnt the value of which cannot
be discounted. But there are
many and profound reasons to
support the contention that in
the measures taken for the en-
forcement and Interpretation
of the amendment excessive zeal
has Ovcr-rcached itself and that
a vast change in the habits and
customs of the people has been
undertaken far in advance of
that public opinion which is

QUALITY IS URGENT FACTOR
Striking Example Furnished by Ken
tuckian, Who Markets Eggs,
Poultry and Fruit.

All example of the part that quality
plays in business of direct marketing
Of farm produce is furnished by the ex-
perience of a man in Kentucky who
markets eggs, dressed poultry, meats
and fruits to consumers in Nashville,
Tenn.
The business was established over
two years ago by obtaining a friend
as the first customer. From this mod
est beginning the producer has OBJ
tanned sufficient customers to buy all
of the high-grade produce he can sup
ply. Most Of the shipments are made
by parcel post.
This business is conducted on the
basis of high quality with adequate re-
turns, says the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Customers are
selected with as much care as most
consumers show in selecting q pro-
Queer from whom to buy farm produce.
Customers are retained by never
breaking the rule to supply only the
best produce raised on his own farm.
II, when an order is obtained, this
farmer does not have produce Of the
highest quality, he informs the custom
or and states that unless otherwise in
structed the produce will be shipped
at the earliest possible date.

Popular Belief in "charms,"

AS early as the beginning of the
Eighth century, the church publicly
condemned the usage of amulets. Jet
was then being sold as a medicine,
and belie7 ed to be effective COR eur
ing hysteria and driving away snakes
Loadstones were used to cure the govt
at a much later time, and philoso-
pliers stones were supposed to hold
the key to all knowledge. In rural
sections of the United States today
"mad stones" taken from deer, are
treasured as being sure cures for the
bites of rattlesnakes and mad dogs
Hundreds Of pounds of asafOetida is
still sold every year and tied about
the necks of babies to ward off dis
ease-and many persons carry the

SCIENTISTS AT WORK
ON FARM PROBLEMS
University Studies Questions of Great
Economic Importance to
State
State

That there are still many agri-
cultural problems to be solved is
clearly apparent from the twenty
eighth annual report of the Mime
sofa Experiment Station which has
Just been issued from the Office Of
Publications at University Farm, ST..
Paul. The report is pamphlet of
80 pages and it is crammed full of
condensed statements of farm prob
lens on which the scientists of the
experiment station are busy at work,
and toward the solution of which
they are making decided progress.
Here are just a few of them:
The differences between strong and
weak f1ours. The determination of
these may ultimately lead to the
breeding of more wheats from which
hours like those made from the
northern wheats may be manufac-
tured.
The relation between the vitamine
content of dairy feeds and the Wit
anime content of cows milk. The
solution of this problem may ultim-
amine-rich milk throughout the year
instead of for only a part of the year
as is often the case now.
The influence of vitamine prepar-
atoms on the growth of children. Of
great possible value to the health of
the children of the future.
The marketing of farm products
The breeding of more productive
strains of wheats and other cereals.
Cost-accounting on the farms, just
the kind of a problem that editors
are coming to study more and more
in relation to their own business.
The cost of clearing lands on the
cut-over farms of northern Mime
sofa.
Cooperative seed production for the
development of purebred seed and in
creased yields of farm crops.
What contributes to the keeping
qualities in butter.
Protecting cereal products from
the ravages of insects. One of the
country's greatest manufacturers of
breakfast foods is using some of the
results already obtained.
The development of sprays to pro-
tect plants from the ravages of in
sects.
The discovery of new and more
prolific fruits for Minnesota's farms
and gardens already richly reward
ed.
Means to eliminate plant diseases
like smut and rust which collect such
heavy toll from grain-growers.
The handling of peat soils and
their reclamation. Positive results
are already being recorded.
Eliminating tuberculosis and con-
tagious abortion among cattle
through sanitation.
All of the studies named are used
ing with results of promise, and the
solution of every one of the problems
attacked will mean a contribution of
economic Importance to the state and
to the nation. In point of the prob
lens on which it is working the
University Department of Agricul-
ture is one of the most productive
institutions in the state.

oils A FEATURE
In STOCK MARKET
Made Gross Gains OF From 10 to so
Points at Yesterdays Session.

NEW YORK, April 19.-Apart from
oil and petroleum shares which were
unusually prominent at gross gains of
from 10 to so points today's session
was dull and frequently reactionary.
Buying of the oil seemed to emanate
mainly from bull pools and simil 1''
professional sources and probably had
it's basis to a considerable extent on
announcements of further price ad-
vances for the crude product.
Contrary conditions doubtless ac-
counted for the marked heaviness of
certain other issues, such as sugars.
These were intermittent pressure as
a result of cuts in the raw and refined
products, coupled with adverse divi-
dend rumors.
Extreme declines of 1 to almost five
point accompanied the lethargic move
ments of steels, equipments and sew
eral of the unclassified specialties.
Shippings and rails also recorded ir-
regular but moderate reversals, the
latter making no response to the pro-
posed probe of transportation Condi-
tions by a senate committee.
Money rates showed a slight relaxa
ton, call loans on the exchange easing
to six per cent in the latter part of
the session despite further heavy
Withdrawals from the local federal re
serve bank. The ultimatum of the al
lied reparation commission demanding
the transfer of Germany's gold hold
ings to Coblenz and Cologne probably
had some bearings on the days move
ments in foreign exchange. Rates on
London were comparatively steady,
but remittances to all continental
points favored this center, including
German marks, and Austrian Kronen.f

net LOSSES in

Liquidatons Reached the Lowest at

downward movement in cotton con-

was any recuperative power displayed.
The few reactions amounted only to
a few points and were not long main
