tiOnal work in 1.-THE Sign ON the
Door" 1t was In that success that

DAIRYING INCREASES
IN THE COTTON DISTRICT

A carload of dairy cattle reached
Cotton last Saturday.
M. Schultheis, Jr., president of the
Cotton State bank, and daiyman of
experience, in company with Brick
Burford, agent of the Whitman
county farm bureau, made trip to
Mount Vernon and picked the COWS
and heifers. Thirteen farmers formed
a dairy club for this shipment.
Fifteen silos were built in the dis
trict this fall and were filled with
silage for the winter.
From the number of dairy cattle
being shipped into the Cotton coun-
try, 1t is very evident that the farm
ers OF that country think there is
some reward for the labor expended

declared today in his annual report
as commissioner of Indian Affairs.
AS a result of the intensive campaign
in 1928, he said, attendance at gov
eminent boarding and day schools
totailed 24,145, or nearly 1000 more
than tn normal capacity, and the
number Of eligible children not in
school was reduced by 5000. The
commissioners recommendations in

The Indian population In the Unit
ed States, the report said, is now
1903, an in crease in ten years of
1854. The total value of individ-
uai and tribal property is estimated
at $1,010, 870,519, an increase in ten
years of $343, 939, 256. Allotments of
land were made in the last II months
to nearly 1000 Indians, comprising
1904 900 acres
The report shows a substantial in
crease in the number of Indians en-
gagged in farming There was depos-
tied IN banks during the year approx
1mately 100000 of individual In
dian money The Indians won many
prizes at county farm fairs in COM
petition with whites, and attractive
exhibits of their native arts and
crafts were made at Santa Fe and
Gallup, New Mexico, and at the ex-
position of the Travel Club of Amer
lea, New York City.
The years leasing for oils and gas
mining exceeded 100000 acres the !
gross oil production was about 3d.
100000 barrels and the revenue to ,
the Indians from existing leases was
approximately $37 100000. In the /
Usage Reservation, Oklahoma, 67,864 /
acres were offered for lease, 48,O31
acres selling for bonus of $14,264,-

FIFTEEN PRESEASON GAMES AR
RANGED BY MMILLAN FOR
VANDAL BASKETEERS

Fifteen pr S son gam e S
games have been scheduled during
the Christmas holidays for the Idaho
basketball squad in order to whip
into shape Coach David MacMilIan's
dark-horse Vandals. Beginning De-
cember 10 at Lewiston the barn
storming tour will swing by way Of
Spokane to northern Idaho and back
through eastern Washington to finish
at Potlatch, January 5.
This vacation trip will enable
Coach Macmillan to estimate better
the strength of his squad and cover
the weaknesses left by the loss of
practically all of the last years
championship team. Of the 20 men
turning out regularly II will make
the trip, but the personnel of this
squad will not be announced until the
day before departure.
Practice Games Valuable
The large proportion of new ma

TWO PRIZES

There are two prizes offered for
the best essay submitted; first, $500
to either graduate or undergraduate
student. Second, $500 by an under
graduate student.
Mr.. Babson, the donor of the prize,
states that a sturent living in the
West should be able to write on the
subject of lumber to better advantage
than student living in the eastern
part of the country. The southern
student would be more than likely to
choose the subject of cotton due to
the locality in which he lives. The
student who lives in the large cotton
manufacturing cities of the New Eng
land states would be as able to write
on the cotton subject as the student
of the cotton states.

word on the subject. Until there is an ab- rupt aboutface with regard to national ob- legations the soviet government will continue to be ignored by this government ss an es- tablished government.
 Of course, We do hot prescribe the form of government for Russia. We are not con- cerned as to it's form. Our only concern is that it shall be an honorable government, accepting it's international responsibilities as other nations accept their international responsibilities, and establishing its finan- cial and moral credit as unimpeachable. There is no obligation resting upon this government to recognize Russia. The shoe is on the other foot. The obligation rests upon Russia, if it desires recognition, to conform to the established conditions on which recognition rests.

EDUCATION AND CRIME

Recent statements by a well known local educator bearing on ignorance as the foster mother of crime offer food for thought to pubic spirited people who have long noted with distress the tendency toward our loose respect for and observance of law. He de- clared that in nine cases out of ten crimes in Jefferson county are committed by a class that has scarcely reached the compile tion of the elementary school courses.
 That is probably true. It again empha- sizes the necessity of going to the root of the evil in determination to provide the only effective remedy. We may well ask poets of education in the light of It's pur- poses and application: Production and economy. But by production we do not necessarily mean the making of some con- modity in larger quantity or higher quality: Production must include higher standards of citizenship through the creation of broader moral responsibility. Nor is economy con- fined to q direct decrease of expenditures in the fields of labor, distribution, ct cetera. Equally as great as that is the indirect saw ing arising from application of higher and better principles to our systems of life and government.
 A wise educator once said, two different theories of education often enter the minds of those who attend school One of them the true conception, is to learn how to work effectively in chosen field of effort The other, wholly false and worse than mis- taken theory, to escape serious and pro-
 
 source of waste to those who bear the burdens of public education, both in direc. expenditure of money for schools and in

SCHOOL NEEDS EVER GROW

The crop of new children in the public schools may be surely expected in con,- munity that is not going backward nor its people moving away. When few move away and there is a continuous inflow of flew fam lilies, the public school increase is doubiy certain. The Birmingham schools have en- rolled 5,284 new pupils since November l.
 This marked increase not only embraces the natural growth of families already here, but points also to the influx of families that pour in as Birmingham establishes new fac tories and gives employment to more and more thousands. The demand for additional school facilities will never cease. It is the biggest item of Birmingham's life. and her heaviest expense. For that reason each year ought to discover more and more
 businessike methods in the raising of school funds and their expenditure And it fol- lows that the people, who are asked to give more and more to the schools, should be taken into greater confidence as these larger

RUSSIA NOT YET QUALIFIED

To those who have pressed for our recog- milton of the de facto government of Russia Secretary Hughes replies that the Rus sian government must comply with two stip- ulations. It must first abandon revolution ary propaganda directed at other govern ments, and particularly the United. States. Then it must recognize and make tentative arrangements to discharge it's international covenants and obligations, and show the ability to do so As at present constituted the Russian government has made it impossi- ble to be recognized and accepted on equal terms by governments which have established their integrity and regard for their national honor. Secretary Hughes quoted the fol- lowing official statement of the soviet re- gimc, as of January 21, 1921: "Uncondi- tionally, and without any exception, all for 'ci9n loans are amulet" sy .ar as the rec ords go, this still st.nds as the soviet's last

INTEREST IN PLANTING TREES

Once the nation realizes what trees mean they will be planted. Happily the sense or their value does seem to be increasing. The idea has been inculcated among the school children of the nation. AS they become adults there will be more widespread ln- terest in reforestation and there will be more of that done. The farmers of the country were led into many new paths through the more malleable material of their sons, who gave ready ear to the demonstra- tors and who produced the first prize acres of corn, and raised some of the first prize sheep and hogs.
 Massachusetts is about to stage tree planting bee of real magnitude. Under aus pices of the state forest conservation com mission, million and half of young pine and spruce propagated from seed in the state nurseries are to be planted in various communities and by various interests Cranberry growers are to plant trees in the area about their swamps so as to pre- vent the recurrent overfiowing of their cranberry fields. The water companies are to plant tens of thousands of young trees in the watersheds from which they draw their water supply, so as to preserve that supply. These business interests will do this for business purposes. The entire na- tion should plant trees from the same view point because the entire nation IS concerned in the cost of lumber.
 Right at this time the cost of lumber is A serious item in the nations economy be- cause it affects the building of homes. Not only farmers, but city folks should feel the same interest in tree growing and they should make an effort to plant the trees which. while they are beautiful, will also produce good timber. We should regard these trees as things of life. They are living, breathing things It is an inspiration to see them put forth their new buds and then their leaves in the sprngtinne, and it is refreshing to rest in their cool shade in the summer Let us encourage that naturally friendly feel ing that we have for the trees. Plant trees and rejoice in their growth as our contri- button to the pleasure and economy of hu- man existence.

encouraging drones and neglect of opportu- mites. But to the true theory ana purpose of education. It is the largest force in the development of good government and law obserance which constitute the foundation of human progress and happiness. No gov ernment worthy of the name could be evolved from ignorance, either in the mak- ing or enforcement of law.
 Students of government as well as of ed ucation and it's influence on human progress, generally agree that a distressingly large percentage of crime grows out of ignorance and lliteracy. Crime and disregard for law are not only one of the most expensive things in this country directly, but serious obstacle to our progress and happiness in- directly. Here in Jefferson county Yawless- ness is obstructing nearly every field of worthy activity, not only in the direct cost for protection of life and property, but in the indirect and even greater cost through a baneful influence on the development of good government.
 An educated people are law-abiding people. The greatest known promoter of crime is illiteracy. Hence not only the value, but the necessity, of lifting our peo- pie from the depths and dangers of igno- rance in our efforts to establish and main- tain law observance as the foundation of progress, prosperity and happiness.

MOBILE NOT IDLE

Mobile has not folded her hands waiting on state aid. There has been continuous development on the water front, and this Is especially true with regard to the ship building and repair plants. Mobile for some time has been the largest and best-equipped ship repair port on the Gulf and has added and is adding facilities that will more than preserve that position for her. The Ala bama Shipbuilding Company, whose new plant was constructed of Birmingham steel, handles the largest ships that enter southern waters. It is serving the Birmingham dis trict now in the building of steel barges for use of the Tennessee company on the War rior river and, in doing so, will again use Birmingham steel. The Todd plant floate1 an immense dry dock from New York and ranks with the largest ship repair concerns anywhere. The Tennessee company has holdings at Mobile capable of many sorts of uses as time shall suggest their future em- ployment.
 The Mobile water front is busier these days than it has ever been and the port is more capable than ever of caring for ships that put in there. The coal and oil ternli- naIs have continuous supply of bunker fuel on hand and afford prompt means of loading and unloading ships carrying large tonnages of heavy freight. The ship repair yards are adequate for any service in that quarter. Ships have discovered these inn provements and facilities and more and more of them are putting into Mobile because unafrad of demurrage. The Pacific coast traffic, which grew up in night, has be- come large and stable business east to west and vice versa, again showing the in- innate relations between Mobile, our only port, and Birmingham and the rest of Ala bama. When state aid begins to flow to Mobile it will find something substantial on which to build. And it stands to reason that, if Mobile is making this excellent showing without state aid, when all Alabama stands back of the port it will indeed show expan- sion proportionate to the states growing needs for larger markets.

THAT VOTE AGAINST MILITIA

Nrrom the Chicago Newu)
 It is time for the people of the United States to wake up to the mischief that is. brewing in this country largely because of the peo- ple's heedlessness. The vote in the lower house of the Wisconsin iegis- lature on the bill abolishing the state militia gives an indicator of the sort of influences that are at work. The vote was 65 to IA in favor of the bill.
 What, millions of newspaper read CTS must have asked themselves, can such a vote signify? Are there so many Tolstoyan nonresident pac- fists in the Wisconsin legislature, Sor so many wild and irresponsible cranks?
 The persistent agitation against the national guard that is going on everywhere is weakening influence that some day may bring about a condition of unpreparedness at home most enticing to criminal and revolutionary clements and most periions to life and property.
