PIG CLUB SHIPMENT

Because the pig club children Of
Louisiana have been offered more
money for their pigs by local butchers

to be made to a central market in
November has been cancelled, accord.

State University Extension Division,

CORN AND HOG PRICES

Our citizens may not know it, but
the corn market is now lower than 1t
has been in ten years, while hogs are
bringing from So to SO per hundred.
The relation between corn and hogs
Is abnormal, and for that reason
farmers in many states are finding 1t
more economical to feed their corn to
the hogs, and then sell the hogs, than
TO sell the corn direct.
Il Is the time Of year when we ex-
pect corn and hogs prices to run along
together, and when they do not con.
sumers usually feel the effect, while
the farmer is pushed little closer in.
to q tight corner. Corn is showing q
weakness and hogs are starting tt
climb. The result will be higher price.
for pork products for those who
dwell in towns and cities, and lesi
money going into the rural district!
by reason Of short corn sales. i
looks like a great season ahead fol
the packing industry.
Don't grow into the belief that corr
prices won't affect you simply because
you don't happen to be raising corn
Try and remember that If the farmer,
can't get good prices for corn the!
must get better prices for other pro
ducts, and that means that you ant
the other fellow are going to be call
ed upon to put up the extra money
Anything that hits the producer o.
food hits the consumer of food. 81
it would seem a pretty good time 70,
everyone to refrain from too mucl
pork for awhile, until the corn marke
gets q chance to catch up with it.

THE REASON WHY

One of our readers asks why, II an
editor thinks SO highly Of chances on
the farm, he does not quit his present
lob and become farmer. The answer
to that is simple, namely, that he has
trained himself to something else and
probably could not succeed in agricul-
ture; it is too late. Nor is it likely
that a middle-aged farmer, who has
been in agriculture all his working
life, could 60 to the city and obtain
permanent employment as an editor,
easy and well paid as the editors
work may seem to him; it is too late In
his case also. We see no way of adj
justing the situation to the satisfac-
ton of all and we suppose nearly
everybody will go on to the end OF
the chapter thinking he is getting the
worst of it, happy frame of mind in
which to be. But human nature has
endowed US, or at least a lot OF US,
with the belief that we could do better
if we were in the other fellows place.
And we suppose we'll never learn
the difference.

THE NATIONAL SUNDAY LAW

To The Editor:
Strong organizations are planning
to make an insistent demand upon
Congress for a national Sunday law.
Few people realize the financial or
numerical strength Of this great
ecclesiastical machine, or how formid-
able a foe to civil and religious liberty
it has become. The services Of Will
lam Jennings Bryan have been Sc
cured as aggressive leader in this
movement. He has announced his
plans to establish more drastic SUM-
day laws in the Southern States and
then he will turn his attention to Sc
curing a national Sunday law. The
method which proved successful In
obtaining national prohibition will be
used in the Sunday law campaign
Their aim is to close everything but
the churches on Sunday SO there will
be no where else to go. However
pure their motives my be, the prin'
ciple is entirely wrong.
Sabbath keeping is not civil duty
it is a religious duty. Congress, there
fore, has nothing whatever to do with
its observance. Legislation to this enc
is forbidden by the First Amendment
to the Constitution which declares
that Congress shall make no Law
respecting an establishment or reli
gion or prohibiting the free exercise
thereof" Every man is left free t.
believe or not to believe; to worship
any god or no god; to observe
sabbath or not to observe one as hi
own conscience may dictate. Thu
state is to direct in civil questions
and in these only, but with man.
relation to his Creator 1t has NJ
authority whatsoever. It is to protec
all and to interfere with none, 81
long as they respect the equal right
Of others.
Religious laws have always beef
taken advantage of by misguided
religionists to prosecute those who d.

OUT IN THE OPEN

Living in a city Is a mild sort Of
insanity. In New York, for instance,
girls are being taught in public
schools how to keep house in small.
cramped fats and apartments. And
it is necessary, too, for the tendency
now is for people to congest more
thickly in the cities.
Somehow we feel it's going to be
a red-letter day for America when
the tide turns from the cities TO the
small towns and the farms, with fresh
air, good health pure milk for the
babies, independent life, glorious ma
ture and boundless play grounds for
the kiddies. Only those who have
lived away from the cramped and
crowded houses of our large cities can
really know the comfort Of living.
Packed in the modern apartment like
sardines in box, as the modern city
family is generally packed, isn't
healthful economical or a happy
mode of living.
OF course, it wouldn't do for every
one to start for the farms and small
cities at once. We've got to have
cities. But sometime the tide may
turn, and slowly but steadily each
year the trend may be toward the
open. When it does we predict that
those who are first to seek life where
it can be more comfortably lived will
be the very type of citizens needed in
our rural districts. Always the
foreign element will want to COLOMBO
and the cities will always hold on,
the greatest. inducement to them. But
into the country, and into towns like
this will come sensible, hopeful class
of people, the kind worth having al
neighbour, and onto the farms vii
70 enthusiastic workers who will make
good from the start, and who vii
make America a still greater nation
