days to sightseeing right here in
their own state.
why not start out and drive to
various parts of the state, without
crossing its border? Such trip is
sure to result in a revelation. Not
only will you see things you did not
know your state possessed, but you
will come in closer touch with the
people who make it good state.
You will form friendships here and
there, in town and country, and
you'll enjoy the many conversations
you will hold with those who. live in
the same commonwealth as you do
and yet who might as well live in
foreign lands as far as your past
acquaintanceship with them is con-
cerned
You will get a chance to see how
other people are improving their
towns and cities, and how farmers in
other counties of the state are pro-
crossing. You'll learn a lot that
viii be valuable to you from sugges-
tions you will pick up here and there.
Maybe, too, you'll find you are liv-
ing in a much better state than you
had any knowledge of, and you'll re-
turn to your home and your work
better satisfied with your own condi-
tions. There are scores of reasons
why you should see your own state
first, and one of them is that the ex-
pense will not be as great but the
benefits greater than going to some
iar-off point that offers much and
reveals but little.

IT'S STILL GOOD

Here is an old one, but still good
one, and we feel sure many folks
around Mountain Home will get a
laugh out of it: 1t is related that
Wisconsin editor got tired of peo-
pie asking him for bids on printing.
instead of turning the job over to
him and telling him to go ahead and
do it at his regular price. SO he in
serted this ad in his paper:
con Jan. l will be in need of the
following: two pairs of socks, one
silk for Sunday use. one pair of good
wool pants; six white handkerehiefs
for use when needed; one peck of
good, unsprouted potatoes; W o
pounds of rump steak; some souvenir
post cards with local views; one
quart of molasses. May also be in
market for an appendicitis operation
for wife. Parties wishing to bid on
these supplies should send in sealed
offers, with full particulars as to
discount for cash and self-addrssed
envelope for reply in case bid is ac-
copied"

ABOUT PROSPERITY

Bonus bills, farm aid bills, tariff
bills and laws destined to benefit
this or that class-what do they
usually come to? Despite the ex-
ample of unhappy Russia, the old
delusion that laws can make people
prosperous still exists. We have
men in Mountain Home who still be-
lieve the government can re-distri-
butte wealth, can take it away from
the rich and give it to the poor with
out lessening the total amount. They
forget that although government
may destroy wealth, it cannot create
it. Nothing but labor can create
wealth.
People naturally want to be pros
porous, and if they think that laws
can make them so they will insist
that such laws be passed. But most
members of congress know better;
they have seen all the old tricks to
fool the public exposed. But they
argue that they represent the people,
and if the people insist on more laws
they are there to make them.
The one law that does more to
make us prosperous than any other
is not a man-made law. 1t is the
law of supply and demand. If there
is a wheat or corn shortage, and the
demand for bread is greater than
the supply Of grain, then wheat and
corn will mount in price, and as it
mounts wages and most everything
else is bound to be effected. So, af-
ter all, it is best to remember that
the laws the politician promises you
lii he is elected-and which he
argues win make you prosperous, are
largely bunk and used as a stepping
stone to a fat-salaried public job.
Labor viii create capital, hard work
will do more than anything else to
bring prosperity. For you never
saw a nation of loafers that was
nation.

Profits for Farmers in Agricultural

A report recently added to the
library of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture fills an entire book of more
than 100, 900 words. Several scientists
spent more than five years collecting
data, making experiments and drawing
conclusions from which the report was
made. Information of incalculable
value to farmers throughout the United
States was contained in this report,
but it never would have reached these
farmers if the report had not been
boiled down and translated so that the
real meat was available in condensed
form.
Farmers who read the Agricultural
Department Of The Star are keeping in
touch with agricultural progress as it
is recorded by experts in the employ
of the United States government. The
reports from which this agricultural
news is compiled would be next to
worthless if they were not rewritten
and condensed into practical, under
standable articles and made available
to those who seek better and more
profitable methods of farming.
No farmer has time to wade through
a lengthy technical treatise. Condense
this book and offer clear, concise
statement telling the farmer how to
solve an old problem or show him how
to save money, and real service is
rendered.
This ia why farmers are following
the Agricultural Department of The
Star. They know that what they read
comes from a reliable source. 1t is
easy to understand and is made even
more clear by diagrams, photographs
or maps. The government is spending
thousands of dollars in agricultural re-
search, and the farmer who makes
practical applications of the advice or
suggestions found in these columns is
the one who will profit in the end.
The Agricultural Department is one
of the regular features carried ex-
clusively in The Star in this territory.
From what farmers tell US we are led
to believe that it is one of the most
popular features we carry. If you
have been overlooking it, turn to it now
and see if you won't find something
of interest to talk over with your
neighbor.
