COST OF OUR FOLLIEs

Some people who look around at
the business and labor situation, and
see people out of work, and things not
going just right, are always ready to
fall for revolutionary propaganda.
They say the country should try So
cialism or bolshevism or anarchism, or
some other ism. They should reflect
carefully on the cost of popular follies
and see that as long as people will
keep doing foolish things there will be
many who have to pay the penalty un-
der any economic system.
Extravagant and inefficient govern
ment is one of these follies. People
have long tolerated the use of public
office for political trading, and they
put smart takers and smooth hand
shakers in office, instead of competent
men who could run business economi-
cally. The result is high taxes. This
makes production cost high and many
people are unable to buy products,
thus throwing producers out of work,
and creating a bad situation.
Incidence and lack of industry is an
other folly. The man who fools around
on his job and refuses to put his heart
and energy into it, makes goods cost
high. Again the result is to raise the
prices to the point where millions of
people can't buy them. This results
in lack of orders to the factories,
and many people are thrown out of
employment.
Personal extravaganza is another
folly. When money is spent on fool

banks nor put into sound investments.

TREE PLANTING

One Of the most splendid enterpris-
es in community for public improve
ment is the general planting Of trees.
1t does not cost much to start trees,
and they are big asset to any prop
erty. The expense of setting out is
slight, and the trees grow without
cost. They draw support from unutil-
lied resources. They make the sur
rounding property more beautiful as
well as enhancing the value. Much
has been done in Julesburg in the mat
ter of planting of trees. but consider
able more could be done, as the re-
turns pay for the cost many times
over.

when wind and waves upset them. They
were washed clear OF the, boat. but
managed to cling to a plank that had
been washed over with them. Both
could swim. but were afraid they would
become exhausted and drown il they
turned loose the plank. They said that
many small boats passed near them as
they were floating, but they were unable
to make their cries heard.

as the tide brought them near. Fred

Mr.. Cunningham said in part
I'VE took the grain exchanges at their

market grain on the exchanges. And
my reply to the grain exchanges OF the
country to-day is that the American
farmer Is prepared to fight for and to
defend his rights to sit on the seat OF
the Grain Exchange.
II want to see legislation supple
mental to Federal law enacted at the
coming sessions Of the Legislatures In
all Of the grain States of the country
which will afford relief. This Legislation
should compel admission Of lawful pro-
ducer owned companies to the grair

CCTTON CROP SMALL,
WITH THE PRICE BIG
$780,, 900 Bales Estimated for
Year by United States

WASHINGTON, Dec. IL (Associated
Press) This years cotton production
IS the smallest in twenty years except
last seasons small crop, but based on
December / farm prices it Is The fourth
most valuable ever grown, with an
aggregate of $1,134,60s,356, not includ-
ing the value Of lint. cotton and cotton
seed. which will total many millions OF
dollars more.
The crop this year was placed to-
day by the Department of Agriculture
in it's final estimate of the season az
4.767.262.000 pounds of lint. which is
equivalent to 9.964.000 bales of 500
pounds gross weight (47S.4 pounds OF
lint and 21.e>pounds of basgins and ties
estimated for each bale). This final
estimate is smaller by $4,000 bales than
any Of the Governments forecasts OF the
season made from condition reports dur
ing the growing season.
While there was large acreage IN
cotton this year. the boil weevil di1
heavy damage, while drought in many
sections materially assisted in keeping
down the production. South Carolina
and Georgia, the hardest hit. will pro-
duce only about 40 per cent. OF the
average of 1916 to 1920.
The farm price Of cotton On December
l averaged cas- cents a pound, which
price was exceeded only by the price In
1917, 1913 and 1919.
