There is no real ver-production. The trouble is that there is under consumption, they say. Claim is made by them that there is not enough food in. the world today to provide for normal consumptoin.
 Ill the fifty years following the Civil war, according to best statis- tics available, the United States farmer increased cotton production five times, wheat production four times and corn three times. This in- crease happened while the popula tion of the country only increased two and three-fourths times.
 NO wonder" says Dr. b. D. Ball, director of scientific work of the Agricultural Department, that when the Secretary of Agriculture states that the United States produced twenty-five per cent Of the wheat, sixty per cent of the cotton and seventy-five per cent of the corn of the world, with only one-siXth of it's population, the nation should feel it was on a firm foundation and it's future prosperity assured.
 '.The peak of agricultural produc tion per capita of population was passed in 1898. Agricultural pro- duction almost kept pace with pop ulation increase for some little time after that date, but in the last de- cade it has steadily and ever more rapidly fallen.

Arkansan Wants to

When the call of Arkansas is so strong that the native desires to return, even though it means servi- tude in a penal institution, even the most bitter enemy of Arkansas must admit that it is some call.

cretely shown by the definite state ment that the cotton production has fallen in a decade from 14,000,000, bales to less than 12,000,000 bales Corn production reached it's peak a decade ago and has remained practi- cally stationary ever since. The 1920 average was 104, 100000 bush els, the same as it was in 1910. Wheat production no doubt would be ever worse if it had not been for the fact of the great war drive and the remarkable advance in the selling price of this cash crop.
 ."FFIIfe lie combination, however, oiiiyy forced it up temporarily, and it has dropped back almost to pre-war average"
 Dr. Ball declares that the larger area of fertile land in the country has been taken up and that the in crease in farm area in the future will be very slow. Production costs will be higher, he predicts.
 Statisticians in the Department of Agriculture have estimated that the population of the United States will be more than 220,000,000 at the close of the present century. They have placed the probable time in which the United States will begin to import staple foods at from fif- teen to thirty years. America to- day, they declare, is food-import ing nation, measured in dollars.

DEMPSEY SEES HARD FIGHT
 IN DIPPING
Declares His Toug h e t Battle. Is Still to Be Fought and Won't Be Fun.
By ZANE NORTON, Interna tiona1 News Servi*a Staff
 COrreSDOndent

Los Angeles, Feb. 16.-Jack Dempsey, who is resting in southern California, dislikes the idea of re- maining idle from the ring, but he gets some satisfaction from the fact that the toughest fight of his life is still to come.
 "You know,'s said the champion. I"I have had some tough bouts, and right now there isn't a thing doing, but some day I will have a battle on my hands that will make up for all the loafing I've had to do. Of course, that is providing l don't retire before losing the title.
 Did you ever stop to figure that the fight in which a champion loses his title is about the toughest he can have? Some young fellow comes along and the champion goes into the ring with some of his old stam- ina and skill lacking. The young fellow slaps him on the chin and down he goes.
 Champion Can't Quit"
 A champion cant quit, so he gets up and takes another one. Nat urally the crowd likes to see new champion made and the cheers arc all for the young gent with the wallop.

PREL|M|NARIES FOR
SHOE FACTORY DRIVE
Aggressive Organization and Mass
Meeting the Weeks Work.

The Lion Club met last Tuesda!
in it's regular order with some mat
tiers of routine, but nothing so par
ticularly interesting as the PROPOSE
ton made by the Brown Shoe Com
pany to establish a branch shoe fac
tory in Union City. Mr.. Harpole
read letter from Paducah concern.
ing the branch plant at that place
A description of the factory al
| Charleston, Ill, appeared in this pa
| per last week and all of these things
are very encouraging and attractive
to many of our citizens.
The club soon resolved itself into
citizens mass meeting and then a
plan of campaign was discussed. Mr.
Rust, who is a committee chairman,
said that the plans had not been ma
tured, but that suggestion was
made to get fifteen or twenty men
to underwrite subscription list for
the factory in accordance with the
proposal made by the representatives
of the Brown Shoe Company; that
an organization be created and a
mass meeting held, with all the de-
tails worked out to get the best re-
suits.
Mr.. Henry Oliver had plan and
pledge, which, in effect, provides
for an organization of not less than
fifteen men to conduct a campaign for
funds, each one of the fifteen to
pledge under the pressure of public
demands and upon his honor to raise
the sum of five thousand dollars at
once and without fail. This start is
supposed to be the nucleus for arous-
ing the interest of hundreds of our
business men to the Importance of
this manufacturing industry in I'm
ion City.
Mr.. Fenner Heath00ck suggested
that the committees be organized in
squads for competitive campaign
with captain at the head of each
committee. For instance, have the
committees separated in groups, with
the men of the different professions. |
Mr. Heathcock suggested that the
women also be drafted for service in
this work.
Finally a citizens committee was
organized for publicity work as fol-
lows: R. H. Rust, H. M. Oliver, A. F. |
H. o. Vincent, Chas. |
Dietzel, Ben Howard
This committee was to meet at |
once and begin the work of publicity, |
and macs meeting of the citizens
was called to be held at the City |
Hall on Thursday night.
This committee is the beginning,
and if these men keep up the fires
that have been started there will un-
loubtedly be a shoe factory in Union
City.
