are practically the only public activities with
which the farm is concerned, and if the school
tax and the road tax were deducted, the amount
that the farm pays to other public purposes (or
should pay) is inconsequentia
The school tax must of course remain, but

FARM TAXES

The National Industrial Conference Board
finds that American farms paid $S90O000O0 in
taxes in 1885, or 30.4 per cent of the total
net profit. In 1920-2l, the taxes amounted to
more than the net profits. In 1922. the taxes
were TIT per cent of the net profits. In three
prewar years of 1912, 1913 and 1914, the aver
age demand for taxes was 11.2 per cent. ,
Taxes the last two years were more than
three times more than they were in 1913.
Neither farming nor any other business
can afford to pay one-third of its net profits in
taxes, and farming least Of all, because the farm
tax cannot be passed on to the consumer-at
least, not that anyone has been able to notice

states, the nub of the farm tax situation in MIN

ONE MORE REASON.

Mrs. Consumer: "Why do people
who recommend things always live so
far away"
Mr.. Consumer: "Have you noticed
that, too?"
In the early days of advertising, the testi-
monial was the business builder for fake patent
medicine 1t was effective in spite of the fact
that care exercised to see that the greatest
possible distance was placed between tn pros
pective buyer and the signer of testimonial The
reason hardly needs explanation. Seldom was a
check-up such distant experiences probable.
For the same reason certain mail order
houses and broadcastng firms are Strong on
testimonials and guarantees. We overheard a
man ask local tire dealer how certain broad
caster could guarantee his mail order tire to
list longer on a than any other tire or money
refunded. 'Its easy" replied the local dealer.
Il stand willing to make the same guarantee any
time to prospective buyers hundred miles or
more from my place Of business. The reason
is that the buyer, unless wosfully disappointed
and utterly Disguised with his purchase will
not take the trouble to send or bring tire one
hundred miles or more for adjustment" -
But it is Inconvenience to the purchaser
to return tire or other merchandise to a local
dealer if it proves unsatisfactory. That is the
reason local dealers must sell goods they know
to be right. That is also the reason why peo-
pie show great wisdom by buying at home.

GOVERNMENT AND CALAMfTIES.

When such far-reaching calamity
as the Mississippi flood devastates a
portion of the country, and renders
thousands homeless, it seems there
should be some avenue, whereby the fed
eral government could step in and take
charge of the situation-render aid to
the suffering, shelter to the homeless
and food and clothing to those, whose
condition demand these vital necessi-
ties.
But as it now is this is left to
agencies such as the American Red
Cross. This organization has accom-
plshed a great and stupendous work of
mercy during the past few weeks in the
southland. Millions of dollars have
been collected and are being disbursed
through the activity of the Red Cross.
Thousands of refugees are being cared
for and will be until the flood subsidies
and they can return to their farms and
rehabilitate their homes: >'A = Ss2'
When such eatastrophies befall any
section of the nation the federal gov
eminent should step in and take charge,
not only of the work OF aiding the re-
fugees, but in restoring the devastated
region. With army engineers and
host of scientists in almost every field
of activity, there is no reason why the
government could not accomplish more
in less time in calamities of this nature
than any other agency. With millions
and billions of dollars being spent in
other avenues it would seem that few
millions could be used to great advan-
tage in bringing conditions back to nor
NAL following such national calamities.

Permanent.
Sy the Associated Press.

LONDON, May 1.-THE British
fGovernment diplomatic mission to
the Vatican, which was appointed De-
cernber II, 1914. is regarded now as a
matter of permanent British policy.
sir Austen Chamberlain. the Foreign
Secretary, made this announcement in
the House OF Commons yesterday.
Diplomatic relations were established
with the Holy See soon after the
World War burst n Europe, and
II was generally understood in Eng
land at that time that the action was
taken so AS TO establish the closest
relations with the Holy See in further
ing peace overtures by the Pope or
other responsible persons.
There was considerable criticism of
the government in 1914 by some
Protestant circles~-Criticism which has
been repeated forcefully from time to
time since peace was restored. The
government however. is understood
to have formulated its decision to
maintain the Vatican envoy in the
terms of Sir Austen's explanation.
THE government does not intend to
Withdraw the mission to the Holy
See said the Foreign Secretary in
the House yesterday in reply to a
question by Niscount Sandon. 1T was
found convenient to establish this
delegation at a time OK international
trouble and difficulty, and to withdraw
st now would be an almost offensive
action.
Apart from that. whatever views
members of the government may hold
individually about the Roman Church.
there can he no doubt that the head
OF that church represents great
force in the world and il venerated by
