\ food show is always an interesting
institution. It's advertising possibilities
cannot be questioned. 1t may be val
liable means of education, also. One re
cent exhibition of this kind specialized
in educative features, especially those
having to do with the proper feeding of
children. There was an exhibit showing
the picture of twelve-year-Old boy,
sunken-cheeked and hollow-eyed, a typ
zeal case of undernourishment. Under
the photograph were the words, This is
the food she gave him" This was shown
by table set with a cup of black cof-
fec. two sweet rolls and a slice of bo-
Iogna Beside this was a table labeled,
This is the food he should have had"
1t was set with dish of prunes, bowl
of oatmeal, two slices of buttered toast
and a glass of milk. Attention was
called to the fact that the nourishing
meal cost but nine cents, while the i'm
proper food cost ten. 1t was a potent
lesson, largely because of its simplicity.
1t was particularly valuable because it
emphasized the fact that proper feeding
is not so much matter of money as of
education, of knowing what the right
kinds of food are.

voted to other crops. This is the most
legitimate and praiseworthy phase of the
plan. When cotton growers raise less
cotton merely in order to force up the
price, they are the only ones who benefit,
and even they are not always sure of the
benefit. When they make the curtail-
ment of one crop part of a general sys-
tenn of crop variation, they benefit them
selves and everybody else.
1t will mean much for the prosperity
and economic Independence of the south,
and much also for the balanced prosper
ity of the nation as a whole, if the cot
ton belt quits its intensive one-crop pol
icy and raises more corn, sugar, hogs,
cattle. vegetables and poultry. good
start along that line is to be welcomed,
whatever the incentive.

Ci&CELLING EUROPE'S DEBT.
Proposals for the cancellation of the
$4,000 100000 or so that the allies owe
this country. as a result of credits adj
vanced during the war, fall on deaf ears.
Feelers in that direction cautiously put
out by the allies have met with no en-
enlargement, either from the government
or from the average citizen. The public,
with all its friendIiness for our late war
associates and all its sympathy for their
present misfOrtuneS. feels that a debt is
a debt. and ought to be paid-that it is
Il moral as well as financial PROPOSE
ton, and any cancellation of honest obi
cations is reprehensible.
Such favor as the idea has gained on
this side of the water appears to be
mainly confined to men interested in the
personal business benefits of such can
collation.. Manifestly. if Europe is to
pay us that big debt. it must pay in
goods, because it lacks the money. Amer
lean manufacturers do not want payment
in goods. because that would make more
competition for their own goods in the
home market. Moreover, they realize
that if Erope had the slate wiped clean.
it could buy more from America, and
thus their own export trade would bene-
fit
The average citizen instinctivcly rccog-
nizcs that this is class view, looking to
the advantage of limited groups rather
than the advantage of the whole nation.
The consuming public rather likes the
idea of impOrtanting a larger quantity of
goods than this country has been import
ing lately, for the sake of the very com
petition and consequent price-lowering
that American manufacturers object to-
But the chief argument is that of a
creditors rights
That big foreign debt is owed to the
whole nation. 1t represents Omney which
all our citizens have paid, and are still
paying, in federal taxes of various sorts.
and also in the high prices caused by
those taxes. That debt of $1OOOO,O0O =
600 means about $500 per family. 1t
means good deal more than that for
families that pay income taxes. The or
binary taxpayer feels naturally that he
has right to get that money back He
knows that if it is paid back, the govern
mcnt can and will lower his taxes ac-
cordingly. He resents the desire of a
comparatively small class of citizens to
keep him from getting it back. And
since he has a big majority of the votes,
be will probably have his way.

CUTTING THE COTTON CROP.

No legitimate objections can be offered
to the widespread movement in the south
for curtailing the cotton acreage this
year. The situation is quite different
from what it was in some previous years
when that policy was urged. There is
now no such urgent need of cotton as ex-
listed during the war and Immediately
afterward. The world market appears
TO be glutted with the staple.
There is almost certain to be enough
surplus left to suffice for next years
needs no matter how little is raised this
year in the American cotton belt. The
total carry-over in this country, from the
crops of last year and the year before
is estimated at 100000 bales. A nor
NAL years production is 100000 bales
Thus, even if the cotton-growers gener-
ally follow the Georgia plan, and plant
only half their usual acreage, there is
likely to be plenty unless the consump-
ton rate should increase suddenly and
unexpectedly, and the curtailment is not
likely to cause intolerable high prices to
