Swift short'ning days;
Bare woods. In rustling pines
The dry leaves blow.

The Service Of Capital

at Is a fundamental truth that all
productive property although privately
owned, is part Of the equipment of so
ciety, by which its wants are supplied.
THE progress of the past has been
accomplished under the individualistic
system. The theory OF this system Is
that every one shall have for his own,
as nearly as may be, that which re-
suits from his own efforts. II is sys-
tenn calculated TO stimulate the initia.
tive, call out the energies and develop
the ability of each individual. He is
free as to his undertakings; there are
no restrictions except that he must
seek his own gains by activities that
are seryiceable to the community as
whole. and he is inspired to labor, not
simply by the desire for personal ad-
vantage, but by the desire to provide
for loved ones, by the impulse to self
expression, to realize and develop his
natural abilities, and by the ambition
to achieve, to win distinction and to
render service.
1T does not promise equality. I'm
less there is equality in production, in
service, in effort, in resolution and in
self-denial, why should there be equal
ity in the division OF results?
THE Justification Of individualism.
however, is not merely in what il al
lows to the superior individual. but in
the results that inure to all It is in
the interest OF all to secure the most
effective organization. the most effec-
tive management and the largest pos
sible production. These cannot be had
by adopting the fiction that all have
equal ability for any position. or by
any ether system than that which
judges mon by their individual quail
hcations"

The teachers rights and duties in
regard to sick children and diseases
are not we'll known. Health condi-
tions are so serious just now that we
publish Rule II of the State Board
of Health Laws. 1t would be help
full if these rules were carefully
followed.
Rule II. All teachers, school
authorities and health officers hav-
ing jurisdiction shall not permit the
attendance in any private, paro chial
or public school any pupil afflicted
with severe cough, a severe cold,
itch, lice or other vermin or of any
contagious skin disease or who is
filthy in body or clothing or who
has any dangerous or infectious
disease.
Teachers in all schools shall,
without delay, send home any pupil
who is obviously sick, even if the
ailment is unknown, and said teacher
shall inform the parents or guardian
of said pupil and also the health
officer as speedily as possible, and
said health officer shall examine in
to the case, and take such action as
is reasonable and necessary for the
benefit of the pupils and to prevent
the spread of infection.
A general teachers meeting will
be held at the court house at Hur-
ley on November "a, at which time
the new course of study will be
given out, and the new work to be
taken up will be discussed. E. N.
Robinson, of Chicago, will be present
and will talk to the teachers on
"Silent Reading in the Primary
Grades and Upper Grade Geo
graphy" There will be other dis
cussions of interest to the teachers.
The rural school at Moore has
been reopened. Mrs. Henry
Peterson of Epson has been engaged
to teach there for this school year.
The essays in the essay contest
have been submitted to the state
committee for judgment. The
majority of schools in the county
entered the contest Last Saturday
the county judges selected the two
best essays from the six best essays
which had been formerly judged by
another committee. The title of
the essay was "My Best OPP
portunities in Wisconsin" Anthony
Wyzenski, a 7th grade boy at Cedar,
submitted the best essay from the
boys group. A girl at Iron Belt
submitted the best essay from the
girls group. Due to the fact that
her paper was. without number,
the girls name is unknown. We
hope to be able to report her name
in next weeks news column.
In order to make the contest at
tractive to the young people, The
Wisconsin Products Exposition at
Milwaukee, offers to one boy and
one girl in the county a trip to
Milwaukee and return with all
necessary expenses, transportation,
hotel, etc. Each prize winner will
be permitted to spend two days in
Milwaukee.

1923 Christmas Seal Sale.

The 1928 Christmas Seal Sale in
Wisconsin opens officially on
Thanksgiving Day, November 20.
Wisconsin should lead the nation in
the sale of seals this year-and we
can if each one sees to it that his or
her own community does its full
share.
For the guidance of teachers who
will take overs the seal sale, it would
be well to follow this method:
To inform all the public regarding
tuberculosis.
To give every one an opportunity
to purchase these seals.
To make men and women realize
it is big opportunity and not a
realization.

Bolshevism in Russia

1.-THE extremity of social disorgan-
ization has been seen in Russia, where
has been enacted the greatest tragedy
In the history of the world. What hap
pened there will happen everywhere
unless there is a development Of the
capacity of people to work together
and understand each other.
I'm It's final form the revolution in
Russia was against what is called the
capitalistic system. or the private own
ership of property and direction of in
dustry. The results of the revolution
are so calamitous in Russia as TO give
a check to revolutionary tendencies in
other countries. Yet the economic
principles of Bolshevism are influence
ing public opinion more or less every
where.
1.-THE motive behind all this agita-
ton is the desire to establish equality.
The social struggles of the past have
been for political equality. Now the
demand is for equality in possessions,
equality In incomes, equality in the
management Of industrial affairs.
There is no argument against the as
pirations OF men for better social con-
ditions, but radical ideas result from
certain economic fallacies. One re.
lates to the employment and service
OF private capital Men read about
vast sums of wealth belonging to indi-
viduals, and think of these sums as
devoted exclusively 10 the owners. In
fact wealth employed in production
for the public market is rendering
service to the entire community, no
matter who owns 1t.
THE whole radical argument Is like
claiming that nobody ever got any
benefit from the development Of the
steam engine but the owners of steam
engines. OF course. the theory only
needs to be stated for the fallacy to
be apparent. The man who works for
wages is benefited by every investment
OF capital which increases and cheap
ems the supply of the things for which
his wages are spent.

PROHIBITION COMMISSIONER

PROHIBITION COMMISSIONER
Haynes has delved into old records
and has emerged with the conclusion
that Abraham Lincoln should be
honored equally as a great prohibi-
ZIONIST and as the emancipation of the
slaves. Lincoln wanted to free the
nation of both evils, Haynes said,
and did not think that his task was
completed when the freedom of the
negroes had been effected. Haynes
produces excerpts from Lincoln's
writings and speeches to prove his
assertions.
DIR. HUGH S. CUMMING, Surgeon
General of the United States Public

questioned success" In some cases,
surgeons on shore have given in
structions by radio for the perfor-
nance of highly technical and
dangerous operations on ships humid
reds of miles from shore, thereby
successfully handling cases which
otherwise might have terminated

ROSE BUSHES AND CHERRY
TREES DAMAGED BY SLUGS

Agricultural College News-SOies:-
The slugs that do 20 much damage
to the foliage OF cherry trees and rose
bushes at about this time of year can
readily be controlled By spraying the
foliage, either with arsenate of lead,
one pound TO 80 gallons Of water, or
wIth white hellebOrc, one ounce TO 8
gallons Of water or nicotine salphate
Ia common brand OF which Is called
Black Leaf 4Oj in the proportion of

IL is not safe 10 use the poison on
cherry trees this late in the season, II
the fruit is 10 be used for human con-
sumption, but i: will not hurt roses.
The presence OF these insects is
manifested by the skeletouizing of the
leaves. The little larvae or slugs eat
away the green surface Of the leaves,
causing them TO turn brown In the
case OF rose bushes, the white helle-
bore may be busted very lightly over

JOHNSTOWN DAIRY FARMERS
TRY COOPERATIVE BUYING

Agricultural College News-Notes:-
The largest item Of expense to the
daiymen In the old days CT the mill
was the hauling of the feed to the
mill 10 be ground. In the present
time when the mill IL only remember
ed by few, the dairyman thinks the
hauling out Of feed is the thing which
is making the largest cut in his pro-
fits The balanced ration which
makes for economical milk production
cannot be made entirely by the feeds
which are raised UP on the farm.
Some concentrated and mill feeds
must be purchased and hauled out to
the farm, The purchase OF cotton
seed meal, insoed meal, and other
ike feeds is economically justifiable.
An Iowa farmer once criticized his
neighbor for hauling so much feed TO
his dairy COVE. The next year the
farmer joined cow-testing associa-
tIOu and began to make his regular
trips TO town and haul out feed
When ne started IN to make a study
Of economical milk production in his
own herd, he realized the wisdom
shown By his neighbor who hauled out
feed. The problem Is not whether we
should purchase mill feeds or try TO
get along without them, but it Is how
10 purchase these feeds and still keep
the added feeding expenses in pro
portion TO the added profit received
Some Of the COW testing associations
have been doing u real service in max
ing q study of how feed costs could
be kept down. We rcad'in the March
report of the Colorado COW testing as
socia,ions that the Johnstown Asso-
citation bought a carload of oil meal
comparatively and made a saving Of
S36 ton. or total saving OF S720
upon 4 carload Of twenty tons. This
IS Indicative Of wat can be done IN

PLEA FOR THE MAGPIE AND
AN INSTRUMENTAL ANSWER

Agricultural College News Notes.
The following question comes from
q southern Colorado farmer:
"ln one of our neighboring towns
certain party is offering five cents
for every magpie head that can be
brought to him. II is the common be-
lief of some farmers, merchants and
others that magpies help carry hog
cholera and other diseases; that they
are not a useful bird to the farmers;
and many other faults are found with
them.
Il have noticed that magpies are
the leading birds in the destruction
of grasshoppers, which we have by
the thousands since this valley has
made sweet clover crop. The mag
pies come from the river every morn
ing, feed on the grashoppers all day
and then fly back to the river at night.
They do this summer and winter as
well.
ut is true that the magpie is a
scavenger bird and feeds upon dead
carcasses, and while we have some
hog cholera in this valley at time,
do not believe the maybe carry one

could in some way make investiga-
tons concerning the usefulness of
these birds or to know whether it is
best to have them destroyed. Iwould
like to see them protected in some
way or other and prefer them as
much as any other bird"
The answer made by w. L. Burnett
of the State Entomologist's office, is
as follows:
"Magpies and crows both belong
to the same family of birds. Both
bear a bad reputation as the destroy
ers of the young and eggs of benef-
