COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 10.-Cut-
ting out waste and increasing the
intensity and efficiency of production >
is what farming people need, rather
than more production. in the opinion
of Dean Alfred Vivian of the college
of agriculture, Ohio State university.
Bend more effort towards lowering
the cost of production, if you would
make farming more profitable" is the
advice of H. c. Ramsower, director of
agricultural extension at the univers-
ity. Proper use of expert information
and complete study of better farm
ing methods are the rules laid down
for the accomplishment of this.
in this concern" said Mr.. Rams
over, with the marketing programs,
which are the objects of the greater
majority of farmers organizations, the
farmer must not lose sight of the
problems of production.
Farmers are but following the line
of least resistance when they enter a
cooperative association which will net
them saving of few cents a bushel
on the grain they market, or a like
small saving on livestock sold They
are overlooking possibility to make
an appreciably large increase in their
crop and livestock profits by intro
ducing, each man on his own farm,
methods of livestock management and
crop culture which will lead to a low
er cost of production.
Must Work Alone
In this field. the farmer is COM
PEELED tC work alone, solving his own
individual problem with possibly only
he aid of expert agricultural informa-
ton gained from bulletins and other
literature. and from his county agent
and other extension workers. Study
and the exercise of individual initia-
tive are the prime requirements for
arriving at a more economical pro-
gram of production.
THE spread in cost of production of
The same commodities but on different
farms the one efficiently managed
and the other not-indicates a pos
Sible saving by the use of proper
methods of many times the amounts
which could be saved in organized
marketing.
With the savings operating on both
ends, in marketing as it is being done
and in production as it can be done
there would be a different story to
tell about agricultural conditions in
Ohio today"

produced annually by the 10 leading
counties of Ohio. statistics obtained
by the poultry department of Ohio

Few people use this enormous

Apply those same taps to any

One of the most terrible of
medieval tortures was allowing
water to trickle slowly, drop by
drop, on the forehead Of pris-
oner bound to a bench. Victim
always went crazy.
The typist takes that same
torture daily, many times over
because she works up to it grad
ualIy in learning her trade.
Behold, there, the body's mar
Vicious powers of adapting itself
to new conditions.
1t is this power of adjustment
that enables men to stand the
sudden changes brought by lost
fortunes.
For a moment there is an
gujsh, for days grief. Then, if
the victim doesn't lose heart and
commit suicide, the body and
brain adjust themselves to the
new situation. Things go on with
the lapse of time and soon there
is as much happiness as ever, ex-
pressed in a different way.
When life gets monotonouS
and boresome, look about and
examine the first thing that
catches your eye.
Everything in the world has,
locked up in it, as intense an
interest as the things you learn
by watching the typist's flying
fingers.
That's what Horace Greeley
meant when he said that a good
reporter could write an interest

AN OLD-TIME GARDEN.

There is a peaceful charm in
the old-fashioned garden that
can be found in no other type of
planting.
The oId-fashioned garden i'm
mediatcly suggests what a gar
den should be-not a passing
show, glorious with blossoms and
scent merely for a single sum-
mer, but a garden that has
grown lovelier and lovclier year
by year, as the home has grown
along with it. The memories of
JOY and sorrow that must neces-
sarily be a part of the home,
have grown along with it. The
memories of JOY and sorrow that
must necessarily be part of the
home, have buried themselves in
the hearts of those Blossoms. No
wonder the old garden was dear
to the heart of grandmother.
Such garden as this is the
garden planted with percnnials
such as digetalis, phlox, forget
me-not, larkspur, columbine, and
all the rest of those charmingly
unpretcntious delicate stemmed
flowers that used to nod and
dance to the breezes in grand
mothers posy beds. Flowers in
the garden were chosen for their
permanency, as everything else
was chosen in the good old days
before apartment houses and
divorces. The flower garden
fourished and grew along with
the place and could be handed
down with the trees and shrub
berry of house and barns from
mother to daughter. The peren-
NAL garden procIaims the home
that is owned and loved, not a
temporary rented residence"
that can never be a real 'home."

SPEED CRAZE

ofEED NNAEE
An army airplane the other
day flew at the terrific speed of
over 22O miles an hour. Lieu
tenant R. L. Vaughan was the
pilot.
This was faster than any hui
many being ever had travelled. A
great fuss is being made about
it, in scientific circles. Admit
tedly, it was an accomplish
ment." But, after all, are
people being made any happier
or the world a better place to
live in, by American ability to
travel at such dizzy speed?
Until the automobile was in
vented, people took life as it
came-calmly, happily, without
any feverish rush.
The auto ushered in a craze
for speed.
Everything followed the
autos lead and speeded up. Fast
living, of two kinds, arrived.
Efficiency experts began adjust
ing the processes of life to gaso-
ine-engine pace. The shipping
clerk was shown how to drive
more nails per minute, the nod
carrier how to get more bricks
on his bod.
People bagan to gulp their
meals, where eating had once
been a delightful ceremony,
enjoyable, lingering on each
morsel of luscious food. Slow,
dragging, sentimental ballads
gave way to swift-moving jazz
music. Dancing became faster.
Life all around was geared to
higher speed. And, with the
process, came a nervous tension,
result of noise and rush.
The speed mania, of course,
has been less noticeable on
farms and in small towns than in
the big cities. But they, too,
are catching the fever. Mr..
Farmer wants his news by radio,
can't wait until the rural post
man flashes by in his ovcrheated
fivver.
Even the once plodding fisher
man, who formerly purrcd with
contentment as he rowed to his
favorite bass pool, now squirms
like d lad with ST. Vitus dance,
until he gets motor to hustle
up his boat, also fast-multiply-
ing reels.
Show people how to move
faster, how to shave off a second
or two, and name your own
price.
The auto couldn't keep up
with the public appetite for
speed, so the airplane is being
developed. Some experts as
sert that airpIanes soon will
make 1000 miles an hour.
Sounds probable.
But is this frantic rush really
making life more happy? What
are we all so afraid of, that we
are hurrying to get past it? It's
mad rush, by bundles of
nerves." with no destination.
In the long run, is it any more
important than if all rabbits
learned how to leap twice as far
and take two leaps where only
one was leapt before? If any
of the lower animals suddenly
speeded up and began rushing
about, as we humans have in the
last two decades, scientists
would cry, "Wave of insanity
social neurasthenia."
Not satisfied, they're carting
US away in auto-hearses. Soon
they'll learn they can get US
buried quicker by airplane.
It "the pace that kills"
