Drift From
Farm to City
Is Good Sign ,
Secretary Wallace.

By TiDscs Special
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-An
your life you have heard that the
steady drift of the farm population
10 the big cities is threatening the
future Of the Nations food supply.
Secretary OF Agriculture Wallace
refers to the movement as
hopeful aspect" and mentions
it in almost the same breath
with slowly increasing farm prices,
gradually improving credit condi-
lions and other beneficial develop
ments that are promising to help
the farmer QUE Of his present dire
plight.
Says Secretary Wallace:
1T is not possible TO measure
this movement with absolute ac-
ouracy. but our best estimates in
dictate that during the months Of
July August and September twice
as many persons left the farm for
the cities as normally.
This movement is in direct re
Spouse TO the willingness OF the
buying public to pay much higher
prices for labor in the building
trades manufactures and industries
than for labor on the farm.
When fair relationships between
agriculture and other prices are re-
stored and the capable worker can
market his labor on the farm,
whether by working for himself or
for another farmer at wages which
will compare favorably. all things
considered. with the wages ne is
able to get in the city, then the
movement will again become
normal"

OAKLAND, Cal, Dec. 13.-Into
the code Of unwritten law George
Baker has inserted decision.
It concerns the penalty that
should be melted out to the Glove
thief" the home-wrecker,
A much disputed question, this;
one that men have tried to answer
within and without the law.
Baker dramatically placed himself
on trial, made himself judge, jury
and accused, and finally reached
verdict. It was the death penalty.
Such is the astounding sequel to a
triangle that involved Mrs. Lottie
B. Clark, her husband, Leo Clark,
and "a man named Baker" Nam
ing "a man named Baker" as CO.
respondent. Clark divorced his wife
at Fresno. That was the only
Identification Clark or the world had
for the other man."
The sequel moved to an apart
ment house here where Mrs. Clark
came after the separation. Finally,
it found Baker, revolver in hand,
sending a bullet through his head.
But first, Baker had penned a de-
cision in the case Of Baker the
"love thief" VS.. Baker the Man.
Baker the Man had won-and to all
men and women, he left a warning
and a sermon. Here, as he penned
It, was Bakers self-imposed death
sentence:
1.-THE man who steals another
mans wife is the greatest thief OF
all He must pay. I am the man
named Baker and 1 have decided TO
pay in full VIII some one please
tell Nr Clark am sorry for any
pain I have caused him. 1 loved
we'll but foolishly. What more cal
one in my position say? 1t all comes
down TO this: We who cheat some
one else must pay. I am glad to
pay"
Baker has a chance to survive his
aelfinilicted penalty.

VAST TAX REFUNDERS
STIR PUBLICITY DEMAND

only a starter because Commissioner
Blair in mis- annual report says that
total refunds for the fiscal year 1922
that have been allowed will amount to
1882 ,371,597. This means that the
Treasury is still to issue refund war
rants to the amount Of some s95, O00-.
600.
In addition, Blair tells Congress that
new claims for refunds amounting TO
467,S29,S were received during tha
year.
The end is not yet, for Blair does
not disclose how many more refund
claims have been received since July 1,
the beginning Of the present fiscal
year.
Another puzzling thing to Congress
Is a report made to the House Appro-
priations Committee on Nov. %. 1929.
by BlaIr's chief accountant who states
that his records show a total payment
of refunds amounting to only S48,134.-
127, as against Melons list Of checks
issued amounting to 87,G83.614.

Mellon who has refunded sS7, $50. 614

J. S. Burton, With Homemade
Set, Listens In On Or
chestra

Radio concerts are beginning to be
an ordinary evening occurrence in
Americas, with the installation af
one in the home Of Frank Sheffield
on Taylor street, which affords en-
tertainment for a number of friends,
and the one made and operated by
J. S. Burton, employee Of the South
ern Bell Telephone company, who
resides on Furlow street.
Recently Mr.. Burton gathered to-
gether a representation of radio
fans, among whom were Welbur
Smith and J. w. Smith, at his home
to observe the splendid recording Of
his homemade set. With the aid of
several cardboard capsule boxes, a
handful of wire ana a vacuum tube,
the three fans heard distinctly the
broadsating of the Chicago sym
Ehony orchestra, which Mr.. Smith
readily recognized, having studied in
that city and being thoroughly ia
miliar with the famous orchestra.
The set, which is capable of receiv-
ing from $50 to $500 meters, was
tuned to $50 meters in receiving the
music Of the orchestra. Mr.. Burton
is confident even longer wave lengths
may be distinctly heard. At the time
of listening in the set had not been
equipped with amplifiers, and only
the ordinary detector was used, which
makes the receiving more rcmarka-

Diversihcation In Farming Oper-
ations Said To Have Put Big
Money in Farmers Pockets

ATLANTA, June 27.-The sunrise
Of prosperity is breaking over the en-
tire section of South Georgia, ac-
cording to the Agricultural Depart
ment of the Atlanta, Birmingham
and Atlantic railway, in statement
made public here today. DiVersltl-
cation is said to be the cause.
A high water mark for the coop
erative sale OF carload Of hogs was
reached at Ashburn when the hogs
were sold at 10 IL cents a pound.
Several carloads of chickens We're
sold on the same general basis.
At Waycross, Seymour Phelps
came from Michigan about II years
ago and borrowed money to buy
eight cows. Today, without any OH
er source of income except from mis-
cows, MIR. Phelps owns, free Of deLt,
rs acres of land well improved, a
50-cow modern dairy and has loaned
about $4,000 to his neighbors.>
In the same county w. H. Whit
beck, a farmer, is making from $40
to $15 a tree from plums, satsuma
oranges and other fruit. He is also
making money on poultry The in
come on his land has been so large
that he has refused $1,000 an acre
for it. Other land with the same soil
may be secured for about $500 an
acre, it is stated.
An Iowa tenant farmer, M. II.
Henderson, went to Wayne county
without money. He leased land for
four years and then bought a farm.
He now owns 95 acres, all paid for,
anu is making money. He has de-
voted his enegries to hog and poul-
try raising.
Walter Tyree, of Mershan, in
Pierce county, averaged this year
$245 per acre from English peas
1t was stated here today that ev-
cry bank in Turner county has com
bined in an agreement to aid farm
ers who have feed in evidence to buy
pure bred hogs and poultry. Recent
ly car Of pure bred Gurnsey bulls
was sold to the farmers OF that coun-
ty and every bank participated in
helping the farmers pay for them
This action on the part of banks was
said to have been based upon their
experience since the Ashburn cream
cry was organized, which has resulted
in the Ashburn farmers paying cash
for their supplies. 1t is stated that
practically rs per cent of the farm
ers in that county VIII be milking
cows in the next year.
