FARMERS SPEND WISELY
AS DO TNDUSTRIALISTS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-(By
the Associated Press. )-Econom-
lists of the department Of agricul-
ture have completed study of the
average annual expenditures of a
farmers family in Livingston Coun-
ty, N. Y, and finds the amount
to be $2,012. The purpose of the
study, which will be extended to
various parts of the country, is to
determine whether farmers get
adequate returns in comfort,
health and enjoyment from their
expenditures" as compared with
the industrial family.
Livingston county was selected as
a general farming community OF
average prosperity. The most strik-
ing feature Of the study, the de-
partment said, was the almost
complete similarity found in items
of expenditures Of the two classes ;.
About one-third of the farm ex
| penditures was figured en- items not
involving direct purchase - food
produced on the farm and unpaid
labor. Of the total, the expendi
ture for food was 1915 per cent
clothing, - per cent; education
recreation and church and social ac-
tivities, l6 per cent,
Automobiles were owned by 75.G
per cent of the families and the

fronting industry because of

fronting industry because of a
Threatened shortage Of cotton.
'In 1865 cotton could not be OBJ
tanned at any price and that was
because Of the Civil war;" said
Mr.. Jordan. "The same situation
threatens us for the near future
unless we can deal fatal blow at
the boil weeviI. Knowing that a
cotton famine threatens the coun-
try, the British are getting ready
to devote vast tracts of country in
central Africa to the production of
the staple, end the government Of
! Queensland, Australia, has set aside
| l00,D 90 for experimental purposes
and has offered to pay a bonus of
from five to eight cents a pound
on all cotton produced within the
state.
VIII Take Years.
But, even if they do try to grow
cotton in these countries, it will be
some years before they can bring
to maturity a worthwhile quantity
/ of the staple. In the meanwhile,
industry in America and Europe
will suffer because of a shortage. -
Mr.. Jordan said the negroes,
whose labor is depended upon to
pick and prepare the cotton for
market, as well as to plough the
land and plant it, are leaving their
Southern homes by the hundreds OF
thousands. eff they get SETTLED
in the North, it will be difficult To
get them back; though" he declar-
ed, cotton is in their blood. and
it would take more than migration
to get it out
Everybody Must Help.
Il am glad to say that the spin
ners, the leaders of the cotton ex-
changes and the heads of Other
great industries are awaking to the
! fact that this is national, not a
local, question" said Mr.. Jordan.
The truth is, if we are denied as
sistance from Northern industries,
it will be futile to attempt to get
rid Of our little but terrible encmv.
u am sure that industry in the
North wants prosperous and con-
tented South, and certainly the
South desires that the buying pow
err Of the North be enhanced instead
of reduced. But one can readily
see what would be the result of a
failure on the part of the South to
surely needed cotton. 1t would
mean wholesale closing of mills, a
great reduction in the output of
automobiles and distress and en-
tarrassment in a great many ether
industries. What we want the
North to do is to help US educate
7 the cotton farmers of the South to
the immense Importance of getting
rid of the boil weevil."

SUICIDE MAY Be SCION
Of ALABAMA FAMILY
Jarvis Turner Burgess Was Cut OF

CHICAGO, March IA key to

terday, led police to communicate to-
day with relatives of the late David
r. Burgess of Mobile, Ala, in the be-
lief that the suicide may be Jarvis
Turner Burgess, the elder Burgess
outcast son.
The body was found in vacant lot
with both wrists slashed, and no
marks Of Identification except the
key. At the lodging house Louis Per-
ry was found relating to others how
a strange man had given him hand
full of papers. These proved to be n
copy of the will of David II. Burgess
and other letters which seemed to
prove the identity of the suicide.
Information received from Mobile
said Jarvis Turner Burgess had tur-
bulent career, having been sent fif-
teen years ago to the Philippine Is
lands by his parent, who was promi-
nent in society and politics in Ala
bama. He returned in a short time
and was said to have wandered be-
tween Chicago and Philadelphia most
OF the time since. The copy of the
Will showed David r. Burgess died in

dollars and cutting off his son with
an allowance of $50 a month.

MAKING CAPITALISTS
OUT OF W0RKMEN
Festus J. Wade Says Anarchy
Disappears With the De-
veIopment of Thrift.

When the savings pass-book comes
into a mans life to stay the red flag
goes out. What the country needs is
to bring about a condition whereby
the man who works with his hands
shall take the same interest in his af-
fairs as the capitalist does in his.
Probably the best way to do this
would be to turn the workman into a
capitalist. And this Is exactly what
he becomes when he saves his money
and builds UP reserve fund. He re-
mains a capitalist as long as he holds
on to that money. The satisfaction
of seeing his money reserve mount
up will discourage the waster to take
a layoff now and then. 1t will encour-
age him to work full six-day week
and thereby increase the labor hours
applied to production.
The American people can solve any
problem they set themselves to. We
provided for sound currency when
the greenbackers and innationists
were routed and the gold basis sstab-
lished. The Federal Reserve Bank
was established and solved q problem
for which most people thought there
vas NO solution. A Aumber Of years
ago. when there va . crisis or when
. bank failed. We all used to shut up
our vaults tight and, let nothing get
out Instead OF hettsrins conditions
We made, them vorss. Now II failures

ly Interested, are disturbed.
Perhaps the most important problem
Of al right now IL to do away with
labor wsats. II never can be done by
preaching. BY agitatiaa or by fierce. II
can be done by selling the workman
on the idea OF becoming q capitalist
This can be brought about BY the hight
kind Of bank advertising. Who IL
