HELD A THREAT
TOPROSPER|TY
Credit Men Fear Public May Be
Led Into careIessness by
. Propaganda.
BY CURTIS X. BURNETT,

v
tionaI Association Of Credit Men.
written for Cosmopohtan News Service.
NEW YORK. Nov. l0.-Another
initiation may be brought on IL
there is iulprovident buying OF comS
modities just now at rising prices
The credit men are anxious Lest
the people may be deceived by
some recent public utterances int
the belief that prosperity is imme
diately at hand, when as a matter
Of fact, there are still many prob.
lens to be solved, and ECONOMIC
conditions to be healed.
Economic credits have been
brought generally into a very snug
position. Severe liquidations and
carefulness in credit granting have
brought this about. This snugnesS
making available credit facilities
when the time is ripe for expant
sion, could be misused to the point
OF encouraging another initiation
should the buying of commodities be-
imprudently done on a rising mar
ket.
Favorable Conditions.
Favorable business factors may be
l!sted as follows: =
The increased supply OF fuel
available for industrial purposes. :,
The increase in the volume of,
business as reflected by car load,
ings, bank clearings. and other,
iudices of business volume.
The unseasonably large produc--
ton in such industries as the COM
struction and automobile indus,
tries.
The increased purchasing power,
of large masses of the community
due to increase in employment and
increase in wages.
The increase in the prices Of.
some farm products, particularly
in the price of cotton.
UnfavOrable Factors.
The disparity still existing in
the relationship Of prices to one.
another, particularly the disparity
existing between the prices OF
farm products and of manufac.i
tured products.
The inability of the railroads to-
take care Of the accumulated
freight.
The continuing unsettled situa.'
tion in European and Near East
ern affairs. The drop In the ex-'
changes of Germany, France, and
Italy, with the confusion existing
with regard TO reparation and
interallied Indebtedness.

Better Laws Against
Dogs are Needed
to Protect Sheep

Although 48 States have dog laws
designed to protect sheep, many of
them are SO poorly planned or so
poorly enforced that dogs ST: II do
much damage to 1ocks, especi lily in
the farming States where AocKs are
small and dogs are plentiful. There
is need for improvement in these
laws, but, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, poor law
that is enforced with energy may
produce better results in sheep con-
servation than a much better law
that is haf-heartedly enforced
Dogs keep many men from going in
to the sheep business, which is prob
ably a greater setback to the indus
try than the actual damage done by
them.

JUDGES MUST COOPERATE

If the efforts of Attorney General
Daugherty to punish war fraud cul-
prits are to meet with full success
they must have the close co opera
ton of judges on the bench. A Phil
adelphia justice recently sentenced
a man to year and day in Atlanta
penitsntiary who was convicted Of
participation in the theft of $780,
600 worth of supplies from an Army
camp. Such punishment is joke.
There is no more despicable crime
than thieving from the Government
when it is straining every resource
to win war, and the maximum pen
atty is none too severe, Convictions
by the department of Justice will
be largely nulified in their effect if
the prisoners are to be let of with
but nominal sentence,

FACTS FOR FARMERS
Extension News Service, University
of Tennessee.)

Tennessee farmers who are using
standard varieties of grain and
purebred sires at the head of their
flocks and herds are the progressive
prosperous men of their commune
ties. Look about you and see if it is
not SO.
Experiments show that purebred
livestock has about 40 percent great
err earning power than scrub stock
according to the animal husbandry
department of Agriculture. Kin the
scrub sire. Few Tennessee farmers
are rich enough to afford the "lux-
ury" of keeping one.
County Agent w. H. Andrews OF
White County, recently assisted
farmer in draining a pond. The
farmer did not know how best to go
about getting rid of the pond but
Agent Andrews showed him and now
the farmer says it was worth 500 to
have the pond out of the way.
County agents find many ways of
serving farmers.
Cleanliness is a paramount factor
in the production of good milk
Clean stables, clean COWS, and clean
utensils are all essential.
One of the great needs Of farm
life in Tennessee today is md, e farm
homes with modern improvements
and eonveniences say Extension
Specialists of the University of
Tennessee. A lighting system, run
ming water, a washing rnachine,
paint, paper and grass lawn can
work wonderful change in the
farm home by saving steps and back
aches and bringing happiness and
satisfaction to the farmer real
