WILL STUDY OUR FARMING

Sir Horace Plunkett, leader of the agricul- tural cooperative movement in Ireland, is in America Investigating our farm meth ~A This visit is encouraging as indicating . substantial program in Ireland for perma- nent development and betterment of domes- tic opportunities. Ireland has never oc- eupied the agricultural position to which she is able to attain, and the exhibition of con- structive interest along this line shows that her own best thinkers are aware of that fact and alert to correct it. Inasmuch as the productivity and success of the farmers E of Belgium, France, Holland and Denmark have been extolled it may be asked why there should be study of AmaGesn agris Otter has it7beea shown tnat me avsras4 yiei4 of ensal Der acre hele is less than half. thAt n France or Hungary.

 There is one fact in our ravor, however, which has not been greatly emphasized. It is that the American produces to the man twice or thrice the amount of crop that the average foreign farmer produces. This is due to the efficient farm machinery used b, the American farmer. It is also due to more efficient and time-saving methods. It has often been said that the farmer who strikes the happy combination between the intensive farming of Europe and the exteh- sive farming in this country will have found the scheme which will give the greatest re- suits per man and per acre. Therefore, there is just as much profit in Europeans study of our farm methods as in an Amerl- cans study of European farm methods. The nation which first makes and applies this study will be the first nation to profit to its utmost from agricultural enterprise.

ST. LOUIS MAMMOTH PROGRAM

St. Louis has voted bond issue of eighty seven million dollars for city improvements
 Eighty-seven million dollars is huge sum of money for a city already grown-up to spend for extra refinements. Only few years ago United States senator in defend ing federal appropriations boasted that thls was billion dollar government. Yet that amount is only about eleven times as much as St. Louis is spending on itself. Tie vote on the issue was taken after thorough sur

THE RIGHT KIND OF RELIEF

In the destitute parts of Europe none have been more helpless than those who must get their living from the land. Without the seed for their crops and the machinery 1, to cultivate them they have been forced to give up farming without other means of subsistence. The result is often starvation. At the best there has followed the economic waste of non-producing land and non-pro- ducing population. To relieve somewhat this situation ship load of farming machin- among the farmers in southern Ukraine
 Arrangements have also been made for the purchase of a thousand horses for farm work near Ura Movements of this sort are not only charitable; they are Of souno ma teral benefit. Once these farmers are on their feet they can produce for others, for the markets, as well as for themselves. Help to be of real value to people is the kind which assists them in times of stress to get their own affairs started again. the kind of help which enables them by their own efforts to become self-sustaining By the practical aid which is being given them, these farmers should soon be able to make of themselves going concerns. Similar re- lief for other sufferers in the Near East would be of more permanent value than mere presents of food and clothing. Relief agencies would command wider appeal if they operated on a sound economic basis.

NEW PRODUCT WINS FAVOR

Decision of the United States Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry Company to enlarge the centrifugal pipe producing capacity of its North Birmingham plant by hundred and twenty-five per cent. and that of the Ma tional Cast Iron Pipe Company to build foundry especially for that purpose marks the success of new Birmingham industry. The pipe manufactured by the De Lavaud process is lighter and stronger than the sand-cast pipe, standing pressure several time as great. The result is that this pipe became available for numbers of uses where steel pipe, which is not manufactured in the South, has heretofore been used. It has been on the market few months only and has already won it's way to approval of en- gineering experts the country over. The cast-iron pipe plants in Birmingham and vicinity furnish thirty-five to fifty per cent. of the cast-iron pipe used in the United States. It is manufactured under the caves of furnaces producing low-cost iron. For that reason it can travel further afield than pipe manufactured anywhere else in the country. The new process has given the district another pressure pipe product and will serve to maintain its prestige in that line.

AUDITORIUM AS A TEST

As far as the public vision is able to pen citrate the mysteries surrounding the audi. torium program it can discern no progress towards the achieving of this ambition of the people of Birmingham. One thing, how ever, the enveloping murk cannot obscure. It is that the commission has fallen down hard on what appears to be very simple proposition. The commission has been given a certain sum of money with which to con struct such public auditorium as can be had for the money. More than two years have passed. and the city is not appreciably nearer the desired goal than in the begin ming. Indeed, it appears that it is farther away. for in the beginning there was none of the perplexity of wrong start to impede progress.
 Now it is n, longer question of building the auditorium, but whether the city com mission as now constituted has the ability to build an auditorium. The people have gwen the commission an unmistakable charge to construct as large an auditorium as possible at the earliest possible date. Not the plans, not the architect, not the consulting en- gineer, not the several contractors, but the city commission itself is on trial before the people. The public is not much concerned as to the intricacies and ramifications of the specifications tangle. The public knows that an efficient administration of the undertak- ing would have projected no such tangie The public knows that to build an audito- rium is.no more of task than the building of a school building, of a club building, of church or of fraternal building. Yet all these other structures are continually be- ing erected without hitch, while the audito- rum has not even seen ground broken or q cornerstone laid There is nothing the mat ter with the auditorium idea, or with any of the problems attending it.

In Medford Vale

In Meoforo vale The sodden snow is sinking from canopy of gray, Discolored long before it melts in slush upon the way So quite mike the pure white snow that fel on Medford vale, That crisply creaked beneath our feet or irifted down the gale. Iris scarce hundred feet away stark Suild- ings cut the view, Aad ou beyond more dingy walls and sullen st4S ks ensue; sat o.. in Medfofd you could look for miles across the snow That gleamed blue-white beneath the moon the moon we used to know. It may be that the distance lends enchant- ment to those days; It may be that my fancy pictures through a friendly haze; But still it seems, though far away and breathing city air, That snow--and life--in Medford vale were very pure and fair.

DEG0UTTE'S PLAIN SPEb x INC
 General Degoutto has n do.ae lisyie plain speaking for4be ben ol recalcitrant Germany. Disc sslng the first month of the French occupation of the Ruhr, he is quoted as saying: q solemnly warn Germany that if single one of my soldiers is harmed and she forces another battle on us, she will not stay our hand by crying 'kamerad.' It will be fight to the finish" He Added that fright and might" were on the side of France. Although the Gernians remain stubborn and the deadlock that exists in the Ruhr has not yet been broken, General Degoutte seems to be optimistic regarding the eventual success of France. Perhaps it is yet long way off," he says in an- other interview, "but there is no possible doubt that we shall prevail in the end"
 How much longer the French occupation will continue is matter for the Berlin gov ernment to decide. If the idea of Berlin is to exhaust French patience and weaken her determination by obstructive tactics, it will he a prolonged struggle, with all the odds favoring the French. The possibility or war between France and Germany may be discounted, at least so far as the immediate future is concerned. It may be taken for granted that the German government is not going to make move that would send the victorious French army marching to Berlin.
