WHERE THE FARM
BUREAU MONEY GOES

There is some misunderstanding,
especially among the farmers who
do not go out of their way to get
the proper information as to just
how funds are provided f~or~carrying
on extension work in the county and
why there should be a membership
fee to the Farm Bureau when the
farmers are paying taxes to a County
Farm Bureau Fund. This question
has come up time and again and for
the sake of helping out community
leaders who have to answer this ques-
ton we will give a clear %presenta-
ton of the facts.
In 1921 the levy made by the
county called the Farm Bureau levy
which is two mills is used for the
following purposes:
$4,000 of the money received from
this two mill levy will be appropriate
ed to pay off debts incurred by the
county for the purchase of grass
hopper poison which amounted to
$4,000, of which the Indian Depart
nent has paid $2,700.

RUSSIA is A NATION
OF SHORT HAIRED WOMEN

Moscow, Jan 24-Russia has be-
come a nation of short haired wom-
en-. This is to the newcomer is sup
posed to be a symptom of communist
leanings, in a country where the
men formerly advertised their faith
in the Soviet brand of politics by
wearing long hair, heavy boards,
leather coats and top boots. As a
matter of fact, the majority Of
short-haired women are not COM
munist at all. They earned their
short hair by surviving the typhus.
Typhus is as common in Russia as
humps in the United States. Those
who contract it, men OF women,
have their heads shaved, and the
women who survive wear short hair
because they have no other, and
their own will not grow back for
years, if ever.

THE PRICE OF LAND.

The bottom has dropped out of the
price of land, so to speak. But price
of everything else has dropped.
While people here became discour-
aged because the price of land has
fallen we read of tragedies else
where because of the slump in the
prices of stocks. While the price of
everything else is slumping nobody
should expect that lands will continue
to advance in price.
And in this immediate community,
and in this section of the state, the
prices of lands have experienced a
further depression on account OF the
advent of the long expected boil wee
vii. That not only puts prices of
farms down, but temporarily it will
help to keep them down. 1t will pro-
badly make the recovery slower.
But the man who owns land should
not forget that the one hundred and
ten millions of people in these Unit
ed States must be fed, and the feed
comes from the soil; he should re-
member that the mules arM horses
which TIL the soil must be fed, and
the cattle on a thousand hills like
wise; the sheep which grow the wool
fer our clothing must Craze upon the
land; in fact everything has its
source in the ground. Remembering
that, no land owner should allow him
self to become too pessimistic over
the present conditions. Land will
come again; the price will advance
again. The whole country is now in
cultivation; there is n wild land to
be taken in. The number of people
who must be fed continues to in
crease, making thereby a constantly
increasing and more insistent de-
mand for the products of the farms.
We will yet come into u own. So
why worry? Sit "stiddy" in the boat.

INCREASED RATES
TO THE CAROL|NAS

Washington, Jan. 24.-Railroad
proposals to increase rates on grain
and grain products moving from Ar
kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and Louisi-
ana via Memphis to Carolina terri
tory were found justified today by
the interstate commerce commission.
An order Of suspension issued
against the new schedules on Oct. /
was vacated and the proposed rates
will be allowed to go into effect Jan.
20.
The average rate from Memphis
was increased by the schedule from
41.5 cents per 100 pounds to AIS
cents, though the new schedules also
contained alterations in rates on
grain from Ohio and Missouri river
points to the Carolinas which consti-
tuted reductions. The commission in
its decisions, said, that considering
the whole schedule the reductions
gave Carolina territory were more
important than the increases.

WHY PEOPLE GO TO COLLEGE

| Someone in Boston has been try
ing to unearth some hidden reason
why so many boys and girls are
focking into the colleges. Various
college and university authorities
have been led to give their opinions,
but absolutely nothing new has been
developed. College attendance has
been increasing since the war, but it
had been increasing rapidly long
before the war. There is just n
reason for it, and that is the recog-
milton that advanced education brings
various advantages to its possessor.
This is no modern discovery. Cicero's
father could see the truth of it, up IN
his little hill town of Arpinum, and
so he brought his boy down to Rome
to be educated, in order to give his
boy a better chance than he himself
had ever had.
If every American boy who want
ed to go to college had seen his way
to do SO, there has been no day since
the foundation Of Harvard when the
colleges would have been able to ac-
commodate those who would have
sought entrance. More and more, as
the country grows generally wealth.
Ter, and the work of the colleges are
brought closer to the masses, a larg.
ell proportion of the boys and girl:
who wish to enjoy their advantages
find some means of gratifying that
wish.-Columbus, CO., Dispatch

cROMER TO THE BAT
Can Kill Weevils If He Can Learn
Habits

Col S. F. Cromer is interested in
the appointment of a County Agent.
If the agent is to be appointed the
Colonel wishes to be it. "See here
now, 1 Golly, I want you to put this
in the paper" he said this morning
(He will probably borrow a paper to
read about it,. 81 want to find out
the habits of the boil weevil," he
said, land when I get his habits,
whether he travels in the day or
night time, 1 Golly, all 1 want then is
to get an act through congress to
give me two dollars a bale for getting
rid of him."
The COLONEL seems to think that
the bug which has puzzled the far
mers of the South for so many years,
and about which so much has been
said, and to get rid Of which so much
has been spent. is a simple matter
for him to handle, if ne a get the
matter of "habits" settled. Let him
go to it, 1 Golly.
