Premier Newspaper.

THERE probably would not be serious dispute
even among newspapers, in awarding the
palm as a newspaper TO the New York Times, which
has just completed twenty-five years under the
single manag cement and controlling ownership Of
Adolph S. Ochs. No other countrys newspapers
can compare those OF tho United States i'll the
number OF the first class. To hold the premiership
in news quality and completeness among all OF
these, is very great achievement. But how this
has been gained, how the Times has been made
what it is is something Mr.. Ochs has disclosed
in his anniversary statement. The Times has never
been used as a property to be MIXED, but as one
be fed. 1t is capitalized at but $soooooo Its real
estate and paper mill properties cost much. 1t
has gross annual income OF exceeding $4,000 900.
1t pays as dividends but 3 per OF this.
The rest goes back into the business into the
making of a newspaper. In other words more than
$I4,sooooo is paid out each year to produce the
Times.
1t has this earning, with this spending capacity
in production, because it has always had this one
policy 1t has never drained the property's earn
ings. 1t has not been regarded, primarily, as a
money making, but as a newspaper making enter
prise. Cash receipts and net income have been left
to be consequence, not the motive.
1t takes other thing than this to build up
a great newspaper! That is newspaper brains which
have mental quality distinctive from that re-
quired in any other productive business as a
newspaper is distinctive from any other manufac-
tured product OF general They do not grow

My friend Mary Anderson. in your

all women engage in productive
labor. The context OF her words as

The Correct Tune.

TT HE New York World approves the suggestion
/ born in Washington and started on its way
by The Herald, that electric lighting companies
should fash the time OF day, each day, to all
their patrons. 1t gives this service, which would
cost nothing but moments time, as a means of
winning popular good WILL the best paying asset
public utilities can have. In giving its indorse-
ment the World says:
Is not the suggestion worth adopting? 1t
is little courtesies of service like this that
soften asperities and harmonic the relations of
the public with utility corporations. Did the tee-
phone companies gain the equivalent of their
loss of popular esteem by ceasing to oblige pa
irons who asked Central for the exact time O.
day?
Good WILL after all, is an important asset
tor public utility company and it is something
TO have every consumer give at least one pleas
ant thought to the electric lighting company in
each twenty-four hours" And on its practical
side a daily time service in every home would
contribute materially to the aggregate OF public

Pelagra, Not Famine.

THERE is pellasra in the South There always
has been and probably always will be until
there is greater diversity OF crops and better gen.
eral sanitation But there is no famine there-food
famine-under any possible definition OF the word
There is not even a scarcity OF food. The report
calling the condition Of famine was mistake
and it would seem plain now, that it was mistake
to give publicity in advance OF investigation, to
mere report.
1t is not hnal whether pelagra is due to un-
balanced food ratons to disregard OF proper
health and sanitary conditions, or both 1t IS prop
ably both But, however this may be, the result IS
one for State rather than national action The red
cral agencies cooperate and advise but 1t Is not
their province to undertake what is a State re-
sponsibity, an authority which is not Federal or
10 where not asked or wanted. Federal authority
where wise does not rush in where angels tear TO
tread in personal affairs. 1t rather insnuatcS itself
hclpfuly.
For years the South by nature welded to cot
ton as a single crop, has talked Of diversified agr
culture. Now, some Of the finest and most pro-
Cressive agricultural colleges in the country arc
located there and crop variety is under way. In
this the Agriculture Department has shown the
right Federal methods. 1t has been helpful, assist
ant and promotive of right public opinion. This
movement needs greater encouragement for only
through it can come that general diversity OF food
supply which will cure one of the belicved-to-be
causes OF pellagra.
People eat what they grow. If this is mainly
hogs and corn, their food ration will be mainly
pork and corn breads. The rest must not alone
in the raising of other things, but in acquiring
taste for them, which is never quick process with
a rural population. If better sanitation in the
homes and small communities is the other r,medy,
this change is necessarily another slow growth, for
it. is change of established habits, something not
peculiar to the South. Here. too, Federal aid may
be very helpful, but to be so it must be advisory,
not authoritative.
Human nature is the South and North. To
turn it to new ways is a matter of education in
building up new ways, through their acceptance in
public opinion. II is because of this The Herald
has favored, not welfare department whose very
name Is resented, but an educational department.
