MOONSHINE is CAUSE

"Moonshine is causing Bright's dis

recently took care of two small boys

Intoxicating fluid to put them out"
by this action upon the mucous
membrane of the stomach it tends to
slow up the action of this vital organ
and eventually will produce any i'm
aginable disease" he added. Moon
shine has a strong content of alcohol
which will harm the system
quicker than whiskey of the bonded
type. But its quickest result is it's
effect upon the Kidneys"
Both DIR. Williams and police Off
Gals are attempting to locate the per-
sonwho gave or sold three small boys
moonsine. A few months ago a boy
was found unconscious from drinking
this intoxicant and he identified the
man who sold it to him. This person
was at that time serving on the Jury
panel. The county attorney was mott

HOPPERS
WITH NEW V

Effectiveness of the grasshopper
catcher recommended by the govern
ment, has been demonstrated here by
l.. j. Adams, a farmer living three
miles from Denton. In six rounds of
a field he bagged 16 sacks or about
80 bushels of insects. The area he
covered was about 25 acres.
The catcher consists of a box 1f
feet long and two feet wide and two
feet deep, set on runners about eight
inches above the ground. An upright
shield covered with tin, two or three
feet high and the width of the box
extends upward from a lip covering
the opening, leaving the box entrance
a narrow strip about two inches wide

box at a height to strike the grain

NECESSITY FOR BEET SUGAR

A prominent European sugar pro-
Queer on a recent trip to the United
States expressed the opinion that pro-
hibition was tremendously increasing
the consumption of sugar in this
country. He estimated that by the
end of 1922, our consumption of sugar
would have been increased from $780,
600 to 1000, 900 tons a year.
This opinion merely emphasizes the
opportunity for development of the
American beet sugar industry. This
development, however, hangs upon the
ability of the industry to meet compe-
tition of sugar produced in foreign
lands on a much cheaper wage scale
than in the United States.
1t is to offset this difference in cost
of production under American STAN
dards of wages and living that Ameri-
can farmers and beet sugar manufac-
turers are asking a moderate tariff to
protect u beet sugar industry and
allow it to meet foreign competitor on
an equal basis at minimum prices.
American beet sugar is the safe
guard which prevents US from being
absolutely dependent on foreign sup
lies. We do not wish to shut out for
eign sugar which is needed in this
country, but we cannot afford to have
foreign sugar to wipe American beet
sugar off the market.

lack of spring rains has made our
forest sections a veritable finder box.
Every person and every camping par
ty that passes through our forests
shuld consider themselves deputy fire
wardens and see that no careless act
of their w or any person under their
observation adds to the fire hazard
in our forests.
The smoke Of burning forests is a
signal and a warning to all. It should
teach that an excess of caution. a
most meticulous care, is only wise.
Vacationists of all varieties, who seek
the ancient, friendly shelter of the
forest, should look to their camp fires
and their burned matches-not only
because the law requires that they do
so. but because common sense and
self-interest require caution of them.
None would Willingly be the source
of a destruction so calamitous and ir-
remediable as a forest fire.

in the history of the country has a fis-
cal year shown such a tremendous re-
action in favor of economy and sound
financial policies. The gross extra
vagance that had featured the former
administration gave way to a program
of rigid economy when President
Harding took office o. March 4, 1921.
It has been impossible, however, to es-
innate accurately the full effect of
Republican retrenchmen1 until the
completion of the first fiscal year I'M
der Republican rule. The actual fig
ures made public by Secretary Mellon
are an ample reward to the voters
who put their confidence in the Re-
Publican policies and candidates.
Equally important, also, is the man.
Hesitation of determination on the part
of the administration to continue and
increase economies in the future. At
ter first istituting rigorous reductions
in expenditures in his own official
household at the White House, saving
a large per cent of the sums spent
under the previous administration.
President Harding has addressed to
the heads of all departments and bu-
reausa demand for "still closer scru-
tiny of their activities and attendant
expenditures"
In this highly laudable demand, the
President is entitled to the full and
sincere cooperation of all the people.
There is constant agitation for the
extension of federal activities - for
new or enlarged national public SER
vice. Those who promote such move
ments secure the endorsement of in
dividual citizens and organizations of
citizens, thus bring pressure to bear
upon congress for increased appro-
priations. All citizens who desire to
the President in his economy eff
forts should refuse to be party to any
movement for added public expendi-
If the president and his department
heads can have the cooperation of the
people, further success will crown the
effort to reduce expenses and also
axes.

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?

II the richest man in your town came
to you and said, "Bill, l would like to
have you help me pass a law which
Will exempt income on all city, county
state and government bonds from all
! forms of taxation so that l can invest
my money in these bonds and thereby
be relieved Of all tax burdens" what
would you say?
The audacity of the proposition
would stun you, and yet that is the
situation that exists today. In years
past, on the theory that by exempting
this class of bonds from taxation,
money for public purposes could be
secured more cheaply, the income from
this class of securities was exempted
from taxation by law.
In those days, however, it was
dreamed that ten, twenty, or even
thirty billions of dollars of this class
OF securities would be issued. This
is the condition, however, which con-
fronts the American people today.
Those best able to pay taxes are alb
sorbing billions of dollars of tax-ex-
empt securities and the tax revenue
thereby lost to the government must
be made up by industry and the av-
erage citizen.
President Harding advocates a
change of this system so that in the
future the issuance of tax-exempt
bonds will be prohibited.
Here is the first step which could
be taken toward the ultimate reduc-
ton of our tax bill.

WIPING OUT CAPITALISM"

Over in Russia we have seer the
"capitalistic SYSTEM wiped out COM
pletely. We have seer wealth divided
up and industries turned over to the
workmen. We have seen the control
of an industrial system placed in the
hands of the worker who was neither
by training nor experience qualified
to manage a business. We have seen,
following this, demoralized factories.

death.
From a program of state ownership
and the most advanced form of So
cialism, communism and sovietism, we
see Russia today, struggling to rise
above the wreck and ruin of it's in
dustries.
That its program of dividing up
wealth and destruction of capital has
been a failure, is evidenced by it's plan
to invite and permit Foreigners to
once again develop private property
and private industries in Russia while
keeping home enterprise under gov
eminent ownership and control.
Emma Goldman, A. C. Townley, of
Nonpartisan League fame, Eugene V,
Debs, Samuel Gompers and the heads
of every labor organization in the
United States, all of whom advocate
government ownership of industry and
so-called industrial democracy have
seen what has happened to Russia UNI
der such a program. None of the rad.
