himself can use or can dispose Of near

Gated recently BY Secretary Of Agricul-
ture Wallace.
Freight rates-therein lies the cause.
You can snip wheat from Argentina to
New York for less than Kansas wheat
can be sent there by freight. Hay that
costs s. ton in Nebraska costs $50 by
the time it reaches Georgia. What is
the result? The East is not buying the
products Of the farmers Of the central
states.
The reaction on the part Of those farm.
ers naturally is TO raise merely those
things which they can dispose Of them
selves. They will raise feed for stock
which they can fatten and ship to some
close packing center. And the Atlantic
coast states viii be left to shift for them
selves for foodstuffs.
Brazil is preparing to compete with
Argentina IN this new field for farm
products. And. il Secretary wallsces
suggestions are followed. the East will
prepare to furnish itself with much that

WHAT THE WOMEN WANT

To show their interest in the question
world disarmament, the women Of III,
country have organized Women's Com
miisee for World Disarmament. with
Headquarters in Washington. D. C. This
organization has chairmcn in most Of the
states, with a central committee direct
ing lis work from the capital.
The purpose Of he organization is TO
urge the President Of The United States
TO call an imRediaie conference looking
toward disarmament, and to demand that
Congress reduce expenditures for srma.
menis. pending this conference
The committee is focusing and direct.
ing upon the President and Congress
the expression Of wOmen's opinion on
this question. Ii is organizing the ex-
preston Of this opinion by publicity
through a Disarmament Week, May %
to %. Il works through .ihe local wo-
mems organizations throughout the eoun-
Try.
As yet, none Of the women's organiza.
iions in Columbia has taken any stand
on this question, though one Of the state
organizations in Missouri declared itself
in favor Of the movement. Women in
Missouri should no. be behind other
states in tnking part in this national
movement.
The question Of disarmament is one
Of vital importance to women. With the
recent appropriation for larger navy
made in Congress, progressive woFen
arc beginning to realize that they mus,
in some way show their disapprOysl Of
preparations which make war possible.
Women are just beginning to take adj
vantage Of their new political influence,
and one Of the first questions toward
which they can properly direct this in
fIuence is the problem Of disarmament,
which is Of vital interest to the whole
4
world.

According to local tailor, about "a

conventions are always scenes OF argu'
ments as to "ny the fignf snouiqer is
lower than the leif.
The explanations offered arc as myriad
and as Ingenious as those presented TO
the tailor BY the laymsn in search Of a
suit For some people really 40 know
that their lett shoulder rs Inc higher and
each one has a Inherent reason ior this

particular tailor, "and when man tells
me that his shoulder dreops bccaase he

that arm, ] just smile to myself and let
him think il, il ii makes him feei any

"But the real explanation of the diff
ference is the fact that when the child
is small. practically all mothers place II

10 sleep. Thus when all the weight Is
on the right side for such long time

lucent, has a flsl TASTE. and does not
shrink spprecisbly. When freshly sep
arated, it has the appearance and feel
Of high-grade axle grease. II does not
become as hard as the coarser particles
upon drying. There is no great differ
cnce in chemical composition between
the two; therefore, il is though; that the
wide variation in physical properties is
due largely to the difference in the size

suspension indefinitely, and its particles
are invisible under the microscope.
With The aid OF the cenirituge, ii is
possible to separate in one hour what,
theoretically, would ordinarily settle in
10000 hours. However, there is still
some material in suspension after the
liquid has passed through the centrifurc
twice. BY the use Of chemicals the ma.
terial still in suspension is flooculated,
and may then be thrown down by the
centrifuge. This last material seems to
be identical in both physical and chcmi-
cal properties with the finest material
obtained the second time. The particles
are probably somewhat smaller.
The conducting of experiments along
this line is a new venture. Work was
begun here last October. but the soils
