In continental Europe milk goats
are largely used by families unable to

During the past several years con,
siderable interest has been manifested
in the milk-goat industry in this coun.

sufficient milk for the average family

There are 375,G00 boys and girls
between 10 and Is years of age in
Tennessee. All of them are eligible
to membership in the boys agricult-
ural and the girls demonstration
clubs. 1t costs nothing but his or
her best efforts in order to be a
member of the clubs, and the posi-
bilities are so great that every one
is more than paid for all these eff
forts Last year there were approx
imately $4,000 active club members
in Tennessee. Their clubs we're or
ganized in about As counties. From
the reports collected by county
agents and submitted to the Divis-
ion of Extension there is no doubt
that the club work in Tennessee last
year was more successful and ac-
complished more good than ever be-
fore
The girls have learned how to
raise poultry more successfully, to
raise better gardens, to bake bread,
can fruits and vegetables, to sew and
practice all forms Of domestic art in
a way that is a credit to mature
women. The boys have learned to
produce we'll bred livestock Of all
kinds more prodtably and to grow
more per acre of all farm crops gem
orally produced in Tennessee.
At the beginning Of the year 1922,
county agents are recognizing boys
and girls clubs with view Of &C
complishing still greater results.
The enrolment Of members should
be done largely during January and
February 50 that every one win be
ready for a year OF splendid work.
Teachers in schools may be Of great
assistance by sending to county
agents the names Of boys and airls to
enter club work and then should
allow them to have what they earn.
Boys and girls themselves may write
or call on county agents and become
regular club members. Let us make
1922 a banner year for club work.

THE MOST WONDERFUL
"CRISIS" IN HISTORY

The United States mas had "pan-

another like the present.
The astonishing fact is that de-
spite the great unemployment and the
distinct business depression due to the
after-effects of the most terrible war
in history, there is practically no alb
normal distress in the United States
today. In addition to that, a state
ment of the federal comptroller Of
the currency says that there is actu-
ally more saving today despite the
bad tines than ever before.
This statement of the federal comp
troller covers reports from 600 mutual
savings banks showing gains both in
number of depositors and number of
deposits during the last fiscal year.
These banks, most Of which are stu
ated in the east, snow an increase
of 1898 depositors and of $30.45
in the size of the average deposit.

the working classes to weather the
present depression" is directly trace

HARDING SUGGESTS
FLEXIBLE TARIFF

There is a strong sentiment among
the Republican members of Congress
IN favor Of President Harding's sug-
gestion for a flexibze tariff, to be adj
Justed by the president instead of by
Congress. The actual debate on the
proposal is not expected to take place
until next month, when the decision of
the senate finance committee is made
after the drafting of the house tariff
bill.
President Harding's suggestion was
made because of the urgent necessity
for the enactment of a permanent tar
lff law to take the place of the tenn
porary measures now in force. Relief
legislation is necessary, as the presi-
dent pointed out in his message to
Congress to stabilize home industry
and to make foreign trade relations
more definite. Els suggestions were
made on a basis of preserving 'pro-
ductive activities" which will tend to
Increase employment and thus pro-
mote national prosperity.

During every era of deflation, fol-
lowing a period of initiation and spec
ulation, comes a movement for ur-
rency initiation. The remedy is like
that of getting drunk again to cure
the headache and general physical
decentralization after a debauch. Apos-
ties of the people, at such times, arise
to remind the debtor that while he
contracted his obligations when
money was easy, he is having to pay
when money is tight. Campaigns of
this kind are always characterized
by a great deal of lurid rhetoric about
the money barons, the ~plutocrats, the
bloated bo~nd-holders ard the big in
terests. :

Constitutional difficulties are encoun-.
tered, however, which will be avoided
by giving the president the power to
proclaim additional duties to meet
conditions which Congress may des-

sible the adjustment of rates to meet
unusual conditions in foreign trade
which cannot be anticipated.
Foreign trade just now presents
many ~perplexities. Fluctuating ex-
change has called for suggestions re-
garding an international congress that
would exercise efforts toward stabil-
~ization. Reconstruction in Europe
is the source of Irregularities. Foreign
eign trade should not be tied down by
rigid tariff regulations which would
be just on one day and extremely I'M
just the next.
Certain manufacturing interests are
advancing the objection that placing
the power to regulate the tariff in the
hands of commissions would work tor

DOUBLE THE VALUE OF YOUR
TRACTOR.

There are many farms located, near
coal mines where the fuel can be
purchased at a great reduction, pro-.
viding the buyer supplies the means
of transportation.
Why not utilize your tractor?
By constructing for it an extra pair
of wheels with rubber tires, smaller
in diameter than the blowing wheels,
and hitching it to a large wagon,
every farmer could minimize the high
cost Of freight. Many a farmers boy
with the right wheels and the right
tractor could earn from $40 to $25
a day during the winter months haul
ing coal and lumber.
In deep snow, take off the rubber
wheels, put on the big wheels with
the metal hugs, and make good profit

PEOPLE DECIDE.

If there is any respect in which
the people rule in the United States
it is in the fixing of prices. A simple
but determined refusal to buy at
prices that are deemed extortionate
will bring almost any price down. Of
course there are some commodities
which people must buy, but these are
relatively few.

NOT ABOLISH BEST
DEFENSIVE WEAPON

That a given war weapon is more
advantageous to one nation than to
some other, or that its use in a de-
fensive way is calculated to make
the battleship ineffective, is not suffi-
cient reason for its abolition.
The submarine, invented by an Am
erican and perfected as a war caft
by Europeans, of itself renders the
United States practically immune
from invasion. Our isolated geo.
graphical situation, with an ocean
rolling between each of our coasts
and any possible enemy of sufficient
strength to give us concern, and the
great length of u coast line, equal
to all that Of Europe, makes the sub
marine more important to the United
States than to any other nation. So
long as warships are retained, this
government should not give considera-
ton to the abolition Of the submar-
inc.
The possibilities of the airplane as
a weapon to be used against non
cOmbatantS are infinitely greater
than those of the submarine, for an
airsplane may cross the Atlantic and
drop bombs upon a defenseless city.
A development of the airplane and of
poison gas is easily imaginable within
a few years, whereby a single war
plane might drop enough poison gas
on New York City to decimate the
population. 1t is not possible to limit
the development of the airplane, or
stop experiments in the development
of poison gas, and with these deadly
weapons remaining the talk about
eliminating the submarine seems to
be entirely in the interests of a sin
gle power so situated that this wea-
pom is most menacing to that nations
particular interests.

all reasonable concessions to promote
