Broken Barriers.

Stage-Struck Girls Missing from
Home, reads a headline. Then in
the body of the article we find
that though they are still child
rem, one IA and the other 16, they
are believed to have run away to
join a musical comedy chorus.
Golden dreams, and behind those
dreams potential tragedy! Will
kind fate lead them to the pro-
tecting arms of some policewoman
to be returned to their homes? Or
will they go on to suffer disillus-
ionment, or, perhaps harsher
fate, and then come back with
their vision broken into fragments
that can never be pieced together?
1t is difficult to deal with the
dreams of youth. They seem so
real and their fulfillment is Just
over the hill there. If there are
barriers, break them and get on
your way. That is youths manner
of reasoning. And when the top
of the hill is reached youth finds
that the mirage is still far dis
tant and the road more difficult
than ever.
The other day a Milwaukee
judge showed sympathetic wisdom
in dealing with two boys who
were brought before him. They
had the spirit of adventure, they
wanted to get into the great open
spaces, and so they played truant.
He arranged to have them placed
on farms for the summer. There
they can see what the outdoors
is like. In such manner if stage
struck girls could be given a peep
on the side of the setting they
would understand that things are
not always as they imagine them.
Merely to impress youth is
neither wise nor just. In one or
the other of those little girls, for
all we know, there may be Mrs.
Fiske or Bernhard. But if we
could only get them to see that
by breaking the barriers, by cut
ting loose, by running away from
the support and protection they
have always had, they are taking
the surest way of never arriving
at their goal, we should prevent
disaster and perhaps tide them
over to- the time when they could
begin in earnest to realize their
ambitions. Milwaukee Journal.

WILL PASS A GASS TAX
indications Point to Passage
of Law Placing Tax on All
Gasoline Used.

The 2-cent gasoline tax effective
ON July first and license fee for
next year on automobiles of from
$40 to SIG is going through the
upper house of the Wisconsin leg
lslature. The indications are that
this is the highway program
which will be adopted by the leg
islature.
The gasoline tax bill, a separate
measure, was sent to third read
ing in the senate last week with
little opposition. This measure
would raise approximately $1,000
600. The license fee bill would
raise approximately S6,OOOOOO.
This total of 100000 would be
turned into an independent fund
for highway purposes.
The 100000 fund would then
be apportioned between the state
and the county. The state will
retain Is per cent of the funds
for the purposes of roads and
bridges, the meeting of federal
aid and state aid and highway
construction. The state aid mil
cage was increased from $500 to
10000 miles.
The Is per cent of the fund
which goes to the county must be
used for road and bridge purposes.
That part of the highway bill re-
quiring the valuation of automo-
biles and the collection of valu-
alton tax has been abandoned as
a part of the program. 1t was
proposed that this valuation tax
should be returned to the locality.
With the abandonment of this
proposal the localities will now re-
ceive only Is per cent of the
funds collected from auto Iicen-
ses and gas tax. This money will
be returned to the county in pro-
portion to the number of automo-
biles licensed in each county.

those cows. Montana is in some
what the same situation, while In
the corn belt there are thousands
of farmers abandoning their old
policy and diversifying by putting

1t is true that this incipient de-

Direct Gable Service.

Relief Manager A. F. Raeckers
of the Western Union Telegraph
Company announces an arrange
ment effective as Of June 1 where
by cabled money transfers to
France will be paid in American
funds at the option of the sender.
In other words, if, say S1OO, is
cabied via Western Union to Paris,
the amount will be paid at des-
tlnation either in U. S. currency
or in francs, according to the
choice of the. remitter.
The particular value of this
arrangement is that it eliminates
questions of exchange and places
the payee in a position to take
full advantages of the premium
on American currency. 1t also in
wolves refund of the full amount
deposited in the case of non-pay-
ment, which is another great adj
vantage in the case of declining
foreign currency.
The Western Union Telegraph
Company believes that the estab-
lishment of a direct money trans
fer service to France on the col
Ii basis will be a considerable
convenience to people desiring to
send money cheaply, quickly, SAT-
ely and directly to their friends
or relatives in that country.

Cabbage Supply Runs
Short, With Texas and
Florida Crops Light

CHICAGO, Jan. PA shortage
of cabbage was predicted today by
the United States bureau of mar
kets. due partly to the decreased
acreage of cabbage planted this sea-
son by Florida and Texas. the two
leading winter shipping states.
Florida farmers planted only 1900
acres as compared with 1900 last
year Instead of shipping approx
mately 5000 cars this, season, as
they did last year. this seasons ship
ments from the two states were esti-
mated at less than 1000 cars. The
output of the two states to January
20 was 247 cars. compared with 672
last season.
This reduction was said to be off
set partly by 150-car gain in the
second crop from southern Cali
fornia, but the total cabbage sup
ply was reported week by week less
than last year. when old cabbage
prices were twice as high, ranging
from $38 to $50 a ton, compared
with $40 to $50 at present
Old cabbage during the week end
ing today sold from $40 to $50 a
ton. Advance sales in western New
York for February delivery We're So
to 81 above current prices, indicat'
ing a confident tone for the future.
Less new and more old cabbage
was expected on the market for re.
mafnder of this season. 1t was esti
mated that $500 cars Of storage cab,
bage were available. During the
week. new cabbage held firm, ad

TWO MILLION MORE
FOR SHOALS WORK
ASKED IN SENATE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-Intro-
duction by Senator Norris, Repub-
lican, Nebraska, of an amendment
to the army appropriation bill pro-
posing an appropriation of $4,000
900 for developments of nitrate
plant No i at Muscle Shoals, Ala,
has paved the way for a sharp
contest later in the senate over the
Muscle Shoals project.
The bill as received from the
house, carries an appropriation of
$6,99S 900 for continuing work on
dam No. 2 and an authorization of
$10,501 900 additional for locks and
dams, but Senator Norris amend
ment would establish a new fund
for government development of the
power project.
Opponents of government develop
ment and advocates of acceptance
of the offer of Henry Ford are ex-
pected to enter strong protest TO the
Norris amendment, whose author
has a bill pending. for government
operation of the entire project. The
amendment provides that the addi-
tional 100000 should be expended
for installation of new machinery
in the nitrate plant for experiment
tai purposes in extracting nitrogen
from the air for the manufacture
of fertilizer.

State Urges Farmers
To Dynamite bitches
While Soil Is Damp

The state board of health has is
sued the following statement urging
farmers to use dynamite for cutting
drainage bitches during January
and February, when the ground is
saturated from heavy rains and the
work can be done at minimum cost:
Zone of the best times for ditch
ing in the southern states, if not the
very best, is during late winter
months. At this season of the year
farm labor at least has some choice
in the selection of work During the
summer rush there can be none
Then, too, soil conditions in the
southern states are apt to be exact.
ly suited for ditch digging in Jan
uary and February. Our heavies.
rainfall in the south occurs at two
periods, during January and Feb
ruary and during June and July.
The small laterals can be dug at any
time but if the farmer wants to
save money and time he will dig his
main outlet bitches with dynamite
when the ground is wet. The wet
ter the better.
Dynamite works much better in
wet soil than it does when the soil
is dry because under these condi-
tons dynamite will give a complete
ditch, requiring very little. if any
hand cleaning; three hundred to four
hundred feet of ditch they can be
shot at one time, thus requiring only
one blasting cap; all stumps can be
removed cleanly; and the dynamite
holes which must be spaced 1 IL to
2 feet apart can be put down much
faster and cheaper.
''In ditching with dynamite where
the soil is well saturated with water
material can be moved at cost of
from twelve to eighteen cents per
cubic yard. Under favorable condi.
tons a crew of three men can COM
plete a mile of main outlet ditching
in four days by using dynamite
properly spaced and loaded.
Ponce de Leon crossed the At
lantic ocean and searched the west

tain of youth. Any southern farmer
can find it, or something just as
good, on his own little farm by

ing himself and his family against
malaria and the other preventabIe
diseases.

Farm Manager Tells
How Berry School Got
Great Yield Of Cotton

ROME, Ga, Jan. 26.-Recent an
nouncement by the Georgia state de-
partment of entomology and the
Berry schools experiment farm that
a new cotton record had been set
at Berry schools, the growing of 667
pounds of lint cotton to the acre has
brought a number of requests for
the methods used by Berry schools
The following statement has been
made by D. w. Densmore, indus
trial manager, and S.. B. Adairs,
farm manager:
We are always glad to answer any
questions for those who are inter
ested in boil weevil control as we
have passed through our third year
Of weevil infestation. Our soil is a
Well-drained field that was a little
above the average in fertility. Early
in spring, we plowed the land and
permitted it to lie for a week; then
we laid it off with !, middle burster
pillow. We put a small application of
stable manure in these burrows
Just enough to make the burrows
look black from one end Of the row
to the other. We then bedded on
this manure and let it stand for
three weeks. At that time we made
application of commercial fertilizer
in the following amounts per acre:
100 pounds of acid phosphate, so
pounds of tankage, and so pounds of
muriate of potash. After the cotton
was cultivated for the first time, we
made application of 100 pounds of
acid phosphate, so pounds of nitrate
of soda per acre. The seed was plant
ed about a week after the first APP
plication of fertilizer. Before the
cotton was chopped we could find
weevils in tbs bud of the plants. AS
soon as we cultivated the cotton for
the first time we gave it a very
thorough application of calcium ar
senate. We did not wait for a ten or
fifteen percentage of infestation, as
we are sometimes advised to do, and
we did not see any more weevils
until about the latter part of Au-
gust. We continued our busting
every ten days or two weeks until
the last Of August. We used sixty
pounds of calcium arsenate per acre
and made six applications during
the season. We use the lover the
