4 SlOD, 1000 MAN FOR A
$4,000 JOB

Making his choice between Har.
ian F'iske Stone and Federal Judgt
William S. Kenyon, the President
has decided in favor of Mr.. Stone
Tor the Attorney Generalship.
! Our opinion was that Judgc
| Kenyon should he selected In or.
der to heal the wound in the ma,
| tons morale which has been
caused by agrarian disaffection in
the midwest and the northwest
but there were other reasons
which decided the aPresident in
favor of Mr.. Stone.
Principal among these reasons,
We think, was the consideration
that the nations morale has been
hurt not only by the adversely of
the farmers but has also been
hurt, very seriously, by the revc-
lations of dishonesty and incompe-
tence at Washington. The admis-
sion made by w. A. Orr, the New
York politician, and by others in
the Wheeler committees investi-
cation have shaken the confidence
of the people in the Department of
Justice.
Accordingly Mr.. Coolidge, in ap-
pointing an Attorney General, was
faced by a dilemma Should he
select Judge Kenyon, whose hon
est sympathy with the farmers
would help restore the midwest
and northwest to a reasonable state
Of mind; or should me select Mr.
Stone, whose administrative ability
would assure the entire country
that the Department of Justice
would be restored to honesty and
efficiency?
The President has made his
choice, and we think he has gained
the end he seeks. Mr.. Stones
qualifications are admitted. For a
year or more he has been on leave
OF absence from Columbia Univer-
sity, where he was dean of the law
school. He obtained the leave in
order to become a member of the
New York law firm of Satterlee,
Garfield and Stone. Since enter
ing the firm, he is said to have re-
teived retainers of $125,OOO.
Manifestly, then. Mr.. Stone is
one Of those teachers of the law
who are also able to practice
what they teach. He is good
lawyer. And since his office at
Columbia was an administrative
one, it is fair to assume that he is
also a good administrator.
Several days ago, President Coo.
lidge said he was trying to find a
500 ,OOO-a year man who would ac-
cept a $4,000 job. He has found
that man.
Mr.. Stone will enter his high Of
flee with the good wishes of the
American people. Perhaps his
methods will not be as spectacular
as the methods of some barking
senators, but he probably will get
results. He probably will do
good job of cleaning out the graft
ers and the political hangers on
who have been cluttering up the
Department of Justice. - Chicago

Insulation of Old
Buildings Important

In rehabilitating an old building
n thing which should be done is the
insulation of the ceilings of the upper
floors. The greatest amount of lsnut
loss In every home is through the roof,
a point which can be easily seen by
noting the rapidity with which the
snow melts on the roofs of buildings.
Not only will there be a great saving
in fuel but a cooler home In the sum-
mer will result. The Armour InstI-
tute Of Technology, according to a test
made with two inches Of poured insu.
lation over the hath and plaster, found
a SO per ent reduction In heat loss.
1t is recommended In using a poured
insulation of good quality. that a laye
OF tar paper be placed over the lath
and plaster of the upper rooms. CELL
Ing and the insulation then poured
on top Of this TO a depth of two inches.
The cost of this method Of insulating
Is very low considering the result:
the material can be applied BY the
owner himself. as II Is a very simple
process. The cost of material for the
average ceiling In a two-story house
OF 100 square feet would amount 70
less than $50. which amount will be
saved In fuel alone and In addition
will make the home much cooler in
the summer. Such material is freproof.
and when poured between the joists
makes q very effective tire stop.

Prevent Erosion

Washing of Soil Causes Less
of Millions of Dollars
to Farmers Yearly.

The whimsical term flying title"
originated years ago-just when. no
one knows. But almost any farmer
can picture the scene and conditions,

Millions of dollars are lost every
year through soil erosion. or washing.
as 1t Is commonly called. This loss OF
fertility is further increased by the
securing action OF the surface water
that cuts bitches in the land. Where
there is a needless ditch there is dam
age. There will be point rows and
short turnings and wasted land along
