srRINKLlNG rmE srREETs

Reeently comment was here made
in a philosophical vein upon progress
and how I, came about, II was suggest
ed that sometimes progress resulted
from changing old ways OF doing
things. or disesrding the old way en-.
iirely or. occasionally. In bringing
back an old method which had been
considered obsolete.
We would like 10, he able 10 claim
that We had street cleaning In mind
when those comments were made. But
we can't for We didn't. The mayor has
now made the observation that the
present street sprinklers do little
good; he has suggested that the ma
chimes bought by the city some time
ago for this purpose be used. We can't
even claim that the mayors good idea
resulted from a contemplation OF the
comment In these columns. Probably
II did not
But nevertheless this idea OF the
Mayors and his statement emphasizes
practically every point then made
here. In the years when there were no
sprinkling carts or paved streets what
ever washing or laying the dust" was
done was accomplished by hand.
Whether the paved streets or the
sprinkling cart came first one may not
be sure. At any rate the sprinkling
cart was useful for long time when
there were many dirt roads. It did lay
the dust and 1t was appreciated. 1t did
its work well. Now, however, when
dirt road in the city is q rarity 1t Is
practically obsolete. Progress demands
some other method. 1t does make
travelling in an automobile dangerous,
as those who come to work in car
daily, or In a jitney can testify. II
the new machines accomplish what is
claimed for them, and are used at the
proper time SO that there will not be
wet pavements in the morning, they
will take the place of the sprinkling
cart the Justification for which passed
when the dirt road passed.
Now here is simple example of
progress seen ina discarding OF old
methods with9the arrival of something
new in the way OF roads; an example
of making use of new machine, the
"squeegee," in place of the human |
hand and bucket--and, what most |
people will ppreciate--another way
in which progressive thought, recog-
nizing the changes that have come in
material things about us, will proba-
bly, save money.
But what strikes us as strange is
that no one has thought of this simple
wise plan before.

FARMERS MAKE MORE
Cash Income This Year Is Said to be
$500, 100000 More Than Year Ago,
Despite Slump.

Chicago, Sept. 1.-The cash income
of American farmers from sales of
this crop will be about 100000
greater than last year despite the
slump in wheat prices, the depart
ment of research of the American
farm bureau federation estimated to-
day. after study of production re-
ports and market trends.
The increase according to the re-
port is accounted for by a probable
raise in the value of the cotton crop
and of the dairy and poultry output.
Corn will bring more than last year,
but hogs may bring less, while 1t was
estimated that cattle and tobacco will
yield about the same as last year.
