"a two-penny loaf" said an
Irishman. The loaf was placed be-
fore him. As if suddenly chang
ing his mind he declared he should
prefer a two-penn'orth of whis-
key instead. This he drank off,
and, pushing the loaf towards the
shopkeeper, was departing, when
demand of payment was made for
the whiSkey.
"Sure, and haven't I given you
the loaf for the whiskey?"
Well, but you did not pay for

was bulling the meek little fellow

Suddenly the woman saw a bull
racing down the road behind them.
She took refuge in the hedge, but
her companion kept on, uncon-
scious of aught but his woes. The
bull caught up with him and sent
him spinning into a muddy ditch.

variable rule never to can any vege-
table or fruit not In first-class con-
dition; that is, do not can food which
Is slightly moldy or specked, over

spots and using the rest for canning
may prove very poor economy in the

pearance or oder, without even tast-

follows:

efficiency and his length of service
His next-door neighbor, maybe, is
classed as a machine operator in the
railroad shops at Moline, and he re-
ceives for work of the same grade
or lower, whatever his term of serv-
ice and without regard to special
efficiency, ~ cents an hour.
The poorest workman of that
class receives from the railroads az
cents an hour more than my mex
perienced workman, and 10 cents an
hour more than my best. You may
imagine the consequence of this dis
parity on labor generally.
"A common day laborer in the

whereas my best unsIiIied woFkmen

It may be answered that Deere
& Company should raise wages to
conform to the pay of railroad en-
ployees, but Deere & Company lost
about So, 4Oo, 733 in their business
last year, of which $6,317,05o repre-
scented writing down of inventories
to correspond to the decline in price
OF materials and stock on hand, and
SZ,zsZ,00I represented loss on goods
sold. This was due to the general
decline of prices and to the inability
OF farmers to buy implements.
Other manufacturers of implements
Jared likewise. This shows anything
but healthy state of industry. The
Wage-earning class will not prosper
when the farmers cannot buy inl-
plements, for that means that they
will buy very little of any manu-
featured goods.
The Deere report to stockholders
states that sales in 1921 were only
81 per cent of what they were IN
1870, and that IL was necessary TO
make radical reductions throughout
the organization. The factories
with one exception were closed N
the late Winter and Spring of 1871
and remained closed throughout the
remainder of the year. That tells
: how present conditions affect the
employees Of Deere & Company.
The continuation of this situation
: is largely due 10 railroad charges

LAKE SHORE RIGHTS

A significant ruling was made re-
Gently by the Wisconsin attorney
general concerning the states rights
to unrestricted access to all lake
shore lines, Notwithstanding the
rights accruing to the owners OF ad-
pacent lands. While the ruling is
probably not a precedent in every re-
spect, it nevertheless becomes of gem
eral interest, particularly In those
states having lakes Of any import
ance.
That the Jurisdiction over the lake
waters, and the land at the bottom OF
the lake, below the high water ele-
walton contour, is vested In the state,
is not o new ruling. But private
owners by this ruling have no lawful
right to restrict the use OF, nor the
access to any lake by the construction
of fences or other structures across
roads or pathways. The states
rights are ruled to be paraount to
the private rights.
| The state is assumed to be protec-
tfg the waters of the lakes and pro-
pagating and protecting the fish in
the lakes, and regulating traffic on
the lakes, at public expense and for
for public benefit, and not for the
benefit of q few who happen to be
favorabIy situated along the lake
shores. Thus, in the opinion Of the
Wisconsin attorney general, the ow-
ner OF the abutting property has no
right to prevent any person from get
ting to any lake, nor to exclude per-
sons from any part of any lake.
AS far as Wisconsin is concerned.
this ruling means the opening up OF
hundreds of small lakes to the use
and enjoyment OF the public, which
have heretofore been virtually held
as private and exclusive property
THE ruling also covers all the shore
lines Of the waters or the Great
Lakes group touching the state.
This may in some circumstance
seem to be unfair to the private ow
ners OF land located along the shore
lines Of the lakes; yet with the fluc
tuations of the lake level, there mus
usually be exposed greater or lest
width of state lands, to which the
abutting owner has no exclusive
rights. And to run fences far enough
into the waters to avoid the making
iof fences parallel to the lake shore
in order to confine livestock, is tax
ing unto the land owner rights Il
which he is not entitled.
The state mist. continre to exercist
It's full rights to the shore lines. an,

time, and when they turned bad it
was just as positive that they were
going to stay bad for a very long
time unless something was done
forthwith.
It would be a mistake TO think
prices are going back to war figures.
In Europe, outside of Russia, agri-
culture will be back in 1922 almost
to normal productivity, and it will
buy no more outside OF Europe than
it is obliged to. A return to COM
pletely normal conditions is not to
be expected until the finances of
Europe are in better shape. In the
long run the farmer has one per-
manent influence on his side. The
population is constantly increasing
and the area of land in farms in
cTeases now only by a considerable
expenditure of capital, for irrigation,
drainage or the Improvement of cur
over lands.
