Unrestricted immigration

No stronger argument against un-
restricted immigration has yet been
put forth than the statement made by
the United Mine Workers Of America,
that eighty six Lithuanian Bolshevists
led the Herrin massacre Of non-union
miners
Whether the charge is true or false,
whether the United Mine Workers are
bOlstering up bad case, or showing
fourth good one, the fact that there
nre enough alien Bolshevists in this
country to commit such a crime, Is
sufficient indication that in low grade
of immigration lies danger.
This country has welcomed to her
shores vast number of high-grade
foreigners, who have become good
Americans and passed into history as
fathers of even better Americans. But
It has also allowed aliens Of so low a
standard of civilization TO come in that
the body polite has been hurt, and
not helped. II is not enough that a
man labor for his daily bread. He
must labor and at the same time OBJ
serve the law, practice the principles,
and revere the fundamentals of this
country, If he is to be citizen asset
and not citizen liability.
No one knows who or what was
responsible for the Herrin murders.
But ii is very plain that whether there
were eighty-siX foreign murderers en-
Eaged. or whether the eighty-six are
but an excuse. il is recognized that
Bolshevistic immigrants either have,
or may, or do, commit crimes against
the government!
Let Congress stand firm against
those interests which would CONNER
cialize this country by unrestricted i'm
migration, at the expense of the quality
of its citizenship!

The comforting Of Il war medal by
the British government upon homing
pigeon not only is a pleasant bit Of
sentiment but calls new attention to
the services that homing pigeons have
rendered to mankind. in peace as well
as in war. The incident recalls the
interesting fact that homing pigeons
were the foundation Of two great for
tunes. Before the days Of the tele-
graph Baron Rothschild used great
numbers Of pigeons to bring the earli-
est information of the stock market
and exchange in London to his Paris
banking house: and Paul de Reuter-.

news agency that corresponds to the

Don't Burn the Stalks

A bale Of cotton to the acre takes
out of the soil approximately l 1-2
pounds Of nitrogen, 1.2 pound of phos-
phoric acid, and 1-2 pounds Of potash
in the lint, and 81 pounds of nitrogen,
13 pounds of phosphoric acid and 5
ID pounds Of potash in the 1000
pound of seed, making the total draft
on the soil by crop Of this size - / .

prosphoric acid and pounds Of pot
ash
But hold u minute, we have forgot

words. with the average cotton crop
the burning Of the stalks removes

Economics of Education

Statistical evidence is given by the
government that the people who spend
the most money on education are the
most prosperous. The states that have
the largest per capita expenditure for
education, O.her things being equal,
have the largest per capita income,
showing that money spent for educ
alton is a good investment. an illumi-
nation proof of this is shown in sta
tistics recently published. II is regret
able, but should no. be concealed, that
only one state is lower than Arkan-
sas and that is North Carolina. With
a per capita expenditure for education
of only $500 Arkansas has per CAPT
Ia annual income of $1,000. North
Carolina, Mississippi South Carolina,
Alabama and Georgia have a lower
per capita expenditure but all save
North Carolina have slightly larger
per capita annual income. New York
with an annual per capita income Of
S29S.9O expends $50 per capita for
education. The highest per capita ex-
penditure is in North Dakota, $3.50
with an annual per capita income of
S150.5O. The Progressive Farmer in
analysing these statistics says:
We believe that these figures in

 When an Old Gang politician tells you that some beneficial legislation has been passed, he really means that 1t has passed into the control of Wall Street.
