HAS THE NICKEL
SMOKE PASSED OUT?

The Connecticut tobacco growers
propose to fix the price Of their pro-
duct.
Contracts have been received by the
Connecticut Valley Tobacco Associa
| ton totaling more than $4,000 acres.
The total stalk cut acreage of asso-
citation members in Connecticut and
Massachusetts, is only 1885, so that
the acreage signed up more than as
sures the formation of a statewide
cooperative tobacco farmers associa-
ton by which the farmer will market
their crops at stipulated uniform
price after the manner Of the Cali
fornia fruit growers.
The move has been long time in
arriving, but it is here at last.
The result undoubtedly will prove
favorable to the tobacco growers, but
it may raise the price of the-fve-cent
cigar. Any added expense naturally
will be passed along to dear old Ill
innate consumer, but, weary as he is
of exploitation, perhaps he will no,
mind, provided nothing is added tC
the freight by the middleman and the
tobacco growers benefit by the move
The nickel smoke, once so popular
today is almost unknown to men il
, even ordinary circumstances so an.
, upward price will hit the poor alone
, which would be .regrettable. So ia
} as the growers are concerned, the.
contend they have not received tn
worth of their product, the work am
investment considered in any part o
: the country, though the price of tn
smoke has been steadily mounting.

the automobiles manufactured in Am
erica are sold and used in towns of
five thousand population and under
and on the farms.
This means that preventable
deaths in the country as result Of
automobile activities is proportion
ately great, situation SO serious
that it cries aloud that something be
done to halt this yearly national dis
aster.
One of the great sources of auto
mobile accidents is the grade cross
ing. problem in every small COM
munity.
In many states the law prescribes
that when grade crossings are elm
mated the village through which they
pass must stand good proportion
Of the expense. This Is heavy bur-
den on the taxpayers.
On the other hand to order the
railroads generally to eliminate cross
ings at grade, either by an elevation
or by submerging OF tracks would
appear to be an unjust demand.
This matter Of grade crossings Is
more than local. Indeed it is 30 ma
tional in character It might be well
for Washington to assist more mater
tally than it does in checking the
country's most notorious death traps.

WORSE THAN
THE WAR.

In the past eighteen months there
have died in the United States more
than twice as many American, as a
result of automobile accidents, as
were killed in the great war. Only
$4,000 Of our boys went west In the
big conflict, while in the last year and
a half $1,000 American died as a re-
suit of motor car accidents.
The startling feature of these fig-
ures lies in a knowledge that the war
is ended, while the motor car is with
us to stay and to increase in use.
Despite the heavy toll it takes IN
human life nothing is going to stop
its progress.
Consideration of the situation
brings its importance home to the
country even more than to the city
because nearly seventy per cent OF

THE HEN
| CALLS FOR HELP.

Finally the food profiteers have
locked horns with a real opposition.
They face the memorable persis-
tency Of the great American hen and
panic reigns.
Some years ago the American hen
gave warning that she might prove
a dangerous enemy and bring about
fair prices, but the shrewd profiteers
countered, and when the hen laid in
sufficient volume to feed the people
the storage warehouse was conceived
Instead of being distributed a,
prices governed by the law of suppl.
and demand, eggs we're stored, kept
from the people, and doled out at uni
formly high prices.
1t appears, however, that the grea
American hen has been thinking.
The result is she mas again come
to the front with a production so be
wildering that the cold storage plants
cannot take care of It.
True, in spite of this, eggs in New
York are selling from 60 to rs cent.

THE APOTHEOSIS
OF HYPOCRISY.

"The government goes right on ig
noring the prohibition law on sea
while making some ineffective efforts
to enforce it on land" remarked Au-
gust Busch, of Anheuser-Busch, Inc
when he arrived last week from
Europe. Mr.. Busch further stated
that passengers on the George Wash
ington discussed the buying of liquor
from the government on board the
ship and then inviting the govern
ment to arrest and prosecute them
when they reached shore.
1t would certainly be nice legal
question as to whether the govern
ment could use money from the Unit
ed States Treasury to sell liquor on
it's ships at profit then prosecute
a purchaser for violation Of the law
1t is true the government is in an
awkward position. The Shipping
lars to stimulate passenger traffic
but much of the money is wasted be-
cause a dry ship has hard time tC
win travellers.

United States may be dry but the!

MAIL ORDER
HOUSES BOOMING.

Sales totals of the great mail order
houses show an enormous increase,
particularly in strictly farming sec
lions.
This is not pleasant news for re-
tail stores in our average small town,
but it is what they may expect.
There is only one way in which the
insidious mail order campaigns can
be combatted, and that is by local
merchants frankly explaining their
merchandising possibilities to the
people through advertising.
1t is a well-known fact that the big
mail order concerns maintain depart
ments of considerable magnitude to
check up the towns where the local
merchants appear to lack enterprise
There they concentrate their bat
teries of advertising and catalogue
distribution.
The mail order house never pros
pers in town where the local mer-
chants advertise consistently, because
the mail order men know they cannot
compete with the local store if the
merchant understands his business.
The cheapness with which the bic
mail order man can buy is more thar
offset b. the low overhead the loca
merchant can get along with.
To hold his own however, the ,Jca
merchant must not hide his light un
der a bushel.
The public needs educating to
knowledge that they can buy at hom
as cheaply, that they can actually Sc
what they are buying before they pa
for it, and that they do not have t.
wait sometimes weeks for the deliv
cry of the article they want.
The National Cloak and Suit com
pany reports heavy increase in it
business, all in the country, though !
is doubtful if this great concern car
ries anything like the line of up-to
date goods carried by local store
throughout the country.
When the merchants get ready t
talk plainly to the people they wi
have nothing to fear from the ma
order man, but if they remain silen
then the outsider will surely burro'
his way into their profits.
Standardization has spelled many
bankruptcy.

But the bump is at hand.
II the hen gets little support from
the public and little tiny egg strike

extortion will be broken.
1t is all very we'll to store eggs, but
when it comes to erecting more and
more great steel and concrete struc-
lures equipped with the expensive
freezing plants to take care Of them,
then 1t may be thought better to sell
the present stock at fair price.
There are now 303,000,000 dozen
eggs in storage-more than three
dozen for every person in the United
States.
And the great American hen is still
on the job.

MOLLA BJURSTEDT ANDMLLE. LENGLEN DISCUSS BIG MATCH

come over to our national cham pionships In America to play in the hope that we meet again be- cause now each of us has one vic tory on the grass to her credit.
 Sitting around waiting hour after hour in the cold was no preparation for this match. I do not consider Saturday fair test; many others have said so, too. I thought the great crowds of English spectators were per- fectly fine. And I hope to come back again next year and then to meet Lenglen again. But as the French Davis cup players are going to America to play the Australians at Boston in August, why does Mile. Lenglen not come also? Then we need not wait a full year for another match. My ore wish is that Mile. Lenglen will take up this expression of my desires as challenge"
 Lengien Feels Jolly
 Mile. Lenglen declared today that she is returning to France imme iiately after the Wimbledon tournament and will go to Dieppe for a rest. She said she was feeling very jolly after her vic- tory of yesterday and that 1t was a very good match indeed.
 T had to keep all my strength for this match" she went on. and I played very much better than I did against Miss McKane or Miss Ryan, and so. as I had been careful, was perfectly we'll on Saturday Snd had all my strength.
 T was not little nervous. Do you think, then, that I looked like it?" she queried with gay laugh. q assure you I was not a bit nervous at all and I hit much harder than before. think Miss McKane and Miss Ryan the bet ter players. Don't you?
 After Dieppe I go to Paris and west to play in little tourna- ment. but I shall not play In big ones for little time. so that I may rest"

Wimbledon, England. July s.-- Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory. who will leave England July l2 for the United States on the steamer Homeric. Is not at all satisfied with the outcome of her contest with Suzanne Lenglen for the women's tennis championship, in which the French champion dem onstrated quickly and in no doubtful fashion her superiority over the American champion. Speaking of the match today Mrs. Mallory said:
 'I am sure did not play one- third as well against Mile. Lem glen as l played in New York, but she played better against me than have ever seen her play before. She was heaps better than against Miss McKane. It is when Mile. Lenglen has the upper hand that she plays so well; it would have been a different story had l got the first two games.
 But 1t could be seen how was playing when the French woman got the first game by beating myself, In hitting out widely on the first four shots. That is not my game. / Many people tell me they thought 1 was nervous be- cause I seemed to them not to have the same control over the ball as I had against Mrs. Beam ish the day before.
 Wasn't Nervous
 But it was not nervousness. l simply felt from the beginning. even when we were just knocking over a few balls, that l could not hit the ball. and was not on my game. Perhaps l was over anx- ious.
 T do, not think. however. that a match of this importance should have been put on at ' o'clock in the evening, after we had been kept waiting about four hours, and were not even expect ing to have to play on Saturday at all. The sun was low in the eyes on one side and heavy shadows were over parts of the court--cast by the stands. I am not satisfied with the score and now Is to play Mile. Lenglen again at the earliest possible mo- ment.
 Invite LensIen over
 My suggestion is that she
