Power and the Farmer

Nationwide elcctrficat: # the rural district,
AKA solution Of the farm problem is advanced by
Arthur Williams, vice president of tho New York
sEdson company.
\. Williams declares that 30 per cent Of the farm
life of this country is substantially the same as it
was 100 years ago. He offers plan of complete
relectrfication Of rural highways to bring the p,wer
plant to the farm.
The electrfication would be paid for Just as roads
are paid fer by the collective effort of all who are
benefited The project would cost about six bill
lions Of tollars
There 6,372263 farms in the United States,
according to Williams statistics. About 100000 Of
these have electrical service some other mechan-
sta power: 225,OO Of this group are connected with
electrical central stations, leaving more than 9G
Per cent without central power plant service.
There would seem little question that electric
rpower available every farm would enormously
Increase farm values Of the entire country" says
Williams. "Were this increase in value but slightly
more than 10 per cent Ia 40 per cent increase has
been quoted recently in actual instance in the state
ot Alabama. the entire cost of the identification
would be offset by farm values alone'
Mr.. Williams suggests tax-exempt securities.
These would be used to build transmission lines and

For some time past well know economists have
been sounding warning against expansion at the
present time. The country will do we'll to heed
these warnings and look tc its credit standing be-
fore even considering any step Of expansion no
matter how feasible it seems. Economists are no.
just theorists. They students of causes and
effects and their observation, in the aggregate may
be taken pretty fair barometer Of business con-
diticns. This is no time for expansion.

Joy blushed richly at the enormity
of her own self-revelation, but Faith,
wise in the ways of children, took it
casually, SO as not to embarrass or

Lets dress!' Cherry cried, when
the tumult had subsidized.
"My dress is in my room," Faith
made herself heard over the hubbut
of voices. "Pu dress and be out in Q

Selma and Frances were tugginp
at strings about gigantic suit-boxes
which contained their brides mait
dresses. make it snappy, old dear!'
Selma called out shri!ly.
Faiths fine body had been reduced
five pounds by the strcnuousness, thu

Faith, cutting thin slices of her
newly baked peanut butter bread
and prune nut bread, for the
inevitable Refreshments" to be
served later. smiled little wistfully
as the shrill clatter and clamor Of
girlish voices penetrated to the
kitchen. She ached to join them, to
laugh loudly, to shrill her own COM
ments, say daring, clever things that
would make them laugh. But she
knew, sadly, that when she did join
them there would be first con-
strained lull. then a renewal Of the
clatter, a Tightening of the circle of
intimacy outside which she would
stand, hurt.

Faith answered automatically. "Here,

And because she was so happy in
her secret knowledge Of Bob's love,
she bent and kissed the tip Of Joy's
little freckled snub nose.
II think you're prettier'n anybody

looking up at Faith with something
like awe in her sharp eyes, as if she
were seeing her sister for the first
time. "You'rc all shiny in your eyes
