"That's fine" replied Connie

Birth Rate Is Lowest
in History of Nation

New YOrk.-The birth rate in
America is now lower than at any
other period Of her history and, due
to the increasing practice Of birth
control, the finest qualities Of the
ace are in danger of being lost.
These are the conclusions of DR..
Frederick L. Hoffman, statistician,
drawn from his research work for the
Prudential Insurance company. About
the only encouragement he finds is
that the death rate is the lowest ever
known, with one exception He places
the annual number Of births I'm this
country as about 100000 and the
deaths as 100000.
'The question Of birth control would
admit Of no discussion" he says IA
his report, "h the decrease IN the
birth rate affected exclusively the I'M
desirable elements OF the population.
However, the reduction IN births ap-
plies largely to those who are intel
Iectually as well as morally and eco
nOmieally Of the superior type.
IF there IS anything in the theory
OF the hereditary transmission OF fine
qualities, st must be apparent that
we are deliberately e~nc9uraging

tenigence and character. upon which
the nation must rely Tor it's direction

navy board Investigating the wreck Of
the Shenandoah by Prof. w. HOOv-
gard, noted civilian dirigible expert
who has made a thorough investiga-
ton into the Shenandoah disaster. His
suggestions include construction Of
airships with a smaller ratio Of
diameter to resist bending forces,
ships Of from 100000 to 100000
600 cubic feet, and control cars built

FARMERS PROFIT
FROM RADIO SETS

There are now some $4,000 radio
receiving sets on farms, compared
to 145,OO0 sets in 1928. Secretary
of Agriculture Jardine, in his annual
report, says;
Average number of sets on farms
per county has increased from 81 in
1928 to 2O4 in 1925. This increase of
over 300 per cent is evidence that the
farmer appreciates the b~roadcasting
service provided for him. Farmers,
generally, have bought very good IA
dio sets. Dealers in several parts of
the country say that radio sets worth
from $125 to $400, sell much more
readily to farmers, than those costing
under 500.
Farmers have discovered they
need good long-distance sets to get
weather and market reports and en-
t~ertainment they demand. Many
farmers have more than saved the
price Of their radio sets by profit
gained from use of market informa-
ton which is broadcast.
"The scope of radiOphone weather
service may be estimated when it is
known that, for instance, in the state
of Iowa alone there are over 33,5OC
receiving sets on farms. It is esti.
mated that weather forecasts are
available by radio, to more than hall
a million farms in the United States

CONE-TYPE LOUD
SPEAKER RAPIDLY
REPLACING PHONES

Manufacturers of radio sets report
the sales of their products have net
been as large this season as in the
past. They attribute this to the ex-
cellent reproducing qualities Of the
cone-type speakers which have large
w replaced the old-fashiOned horn,
type affairs. In this connection,
Powell Crosley, Jr., a leading figure in
the radio industry and manufacturer
of both head sets and cOne-type re-
producers, makes this observation:
"In the early days Of radio people
were not so we'll acquainted with the
vast possibilities of radio reception
and the radio bugs in those days
had to keep whatever they were for
tunate to tune-in to themselves.
Others in the. household did not want
to be annoyed or have their con-
versaticn interrupted while someone
in a b-roadcasting station operated a
photograph to supply music for the
air.
GAS programs became better and
stars Of the operate and concert stage
were induced to broadcast, interest in
radio became more widespread. Then.
too, studio directors added talks and
novelties to interest the women and
children. With the increase in vari-
ETY. in programs there came a greater
increase in the popularity of radio
and a demand was created for some
instrument which would make it pos
sible for several persons to listen tt
the program at the same time in the
same room.
"The first loud-speaker was fash.
toned from a single head-phone uni
with a paper horn attached. The
evolution from that simple bit Of ap
paratus has been gradual, until it il
now a common thing to find buyers
Of radio sets including the cone-typ,
reprOducers as a necessary part O.
the equipment. Head-phones are ais,
bought, although in smaller quantitie
than in the past. Phones are usec
mostly for the purpose CT tuning-il
the stations, prior to using the speak
ers."

i The United : States has been
accused, OF being the richest nation
on earth. Some foreign comment
has Sbeensito the effect that money
is1ail we care for. This is a mis-
taken viewpoint. The reason this
nation is not only rich, but great, is
sfmple-we all work, over here.
Not only do we work, but we make
everything else work for us. We
enjoy producing something useful
Here in the United States we use
forty times as much mechanical
power as human power. In China,
Russia and India they use from two
to four times as much human power
as mechanical. That is the reason
America is rich and that is the
reason wages are high and OPP
portunity great in this nation. High
production per man tells the story
of our high wages, short hours and
modern conveniences in every home.
If the rest of the world would try to
follow our example there would be
more happiness and less cause for
wars and discord.

PENNSYLVANIA REPUBLICAN
SLUSH. FUND

John S. Fishers nomination as
the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania cost Joseph
R. Grundy, the Mellon interests and
their allied contributors $l,6z4,-
542.21, according to sworn expense
accounts filed at Harrisburg on Fri
day, with the State Election Bureau.
This huge sum, the greatest ever
expended in the history of Pennsyl-
vania on a primary ticket, does not
include amounts raised by local
county and city committees.
These. smaller organizations did
not turn their receipts over to the
larger committees, which handled
the biggest slush funds raised by
the Mellon-Grundy interests. The
staggering size of the totals ac-
counted. for by the various Pepper
Fisher committees explains rumors
which were prevalent last week that
hackers of Fisher were trying to find
a legal opinion under which they
could decline to file their expense
accounts with the State Election
Bureau. until after the November
election campaign.
All of the big fund accounted for
was collected for the Pepper-Fisher
ticket as whole with the exception
of S134,OO8.I9 which was accounted
for by the George Wharton Pepper
Central Campaign Committee. This
account was filed by F. Eugene
Newbold and, while it enumerates
a number of unpaid obligations, they
apparently are included in the total
amount accounted for.
The other $1,490,534.02 of the
more than one and half million
dollar campaign fund was raised fol
the entire Pepper-Fisher ticket. AS
Senator Pepper and Colonel Ernest
G.. Smith, the candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor, were defeated, ant

filed its account, showed receipts o

and according to DR.. Fridtjof Nan
sen, who is studying the Armenian
problem for the League of Nations,
will receive 1000 more this .sum-
mer. DR.. hansen reports that Ar
menia sis really developing steadily
under apparently stable government
=. the land is rich in soil, water
power and mineral wealth." The
problem of the Armenians then
would not be so solved by con-
tinuing old hatreds against Turkey.
Beside the non-agression treaty
with Russia mentioned, Turkey has
now come to a peaceful agreement
with England over the difficulties
which last autumn seemed to
threaten war between those two
countries. Turkey seems to be
seeking to develop peacefully in her
own territory. 1t would seem wise
for the United States to resume
regular relations with her, as pro-
vided for in the Lausanne Treaty.

NINETY POUNDS PASTURE
DAILY is cows limit

A cow giving an average of Sc
pounds of milk day would have
to consume IT'S pounds of good
pasture every day to maintain her
yield and keep in good condition
according to the Larrowe Institute
of Animal Economics Since few
cows can eat more than 80 pounds
of grass in one day even from the
most luxuriant growth, big portion
of the 35 pounds of milk she gives
comes right off her back unless the
pasture is supplemented with 2
grain ration.
"All grass, regardless of condition
or location, is we'll over one-half
water" states the Institute. ''Ir
ordinary field grasses this percentage
runs from So to IT. Sweet clover
is rs per cent water. Alfalfa
ranges from 70 to $50 per cent
water From any pasture a COW
gets not more than 2 to 5 per cent
protein and fraction of l per cent
of fat; and of all the grasses she
eats, only s to 80 per cent is made
mp of the very necessary carbohy-
drates. Because grass does not con-
tain enough of the feeding elements
cow needs in proportion to its
bulk, the cow cannot keep on pro-
ducing to the limit of her capacity
on pasture alone. experimenting
the grass with grain ratien, how
ever, keeps her from using up her
bodily reserves. It gives her, the
balanced ration she needs to keep
on producing milk In rofit-making
quantities. 1t keeps her in condi-
tion and brings her into the fall in
shape to produce the most milk
during the winter months when milk
prices are highest"
