FARM DEPRESSION
HELD GROWING PAIN
Business Ready to Assist
Sterilization, ButterWorth
Tells Chicago Group.
BY the Associated Press.

Og bue ASoOSidteu EIeSSs
CHICAGO, October 31.-Business IS
standing by to assist in the stabiliza-
ton of agriculture, William Butter
worth, Moline, president of the United
States Chamber of Commerce, today
told the Chicago Association Of Com
rnerce. The throes of depression in
which some branches of farming finds
itself are merely growing pains caused
by the increasing efficiency and nagni-
tude of modern production, he declared.
1T is as much the concern of business
as of agriculture itself" he said, that
agriculture be prosperous. An awaken
ing to the fact tl.at those dollars
which come from the creation of agri-
cultural wealth are new dollars has eS-
tablished a new conception on the part
Of business men, and they now regard
it not only as an obligation, but a
golden opportunity to aid in enhancing
the purchasing power of these dollars.
Business, recognizing and SubScrib-
ing to the principles of interdependence
of agriculture and other industry, has
not been content to stop there. 1t has
translated that recognition into action.
Chambers of commerce and like organ
izations in all parts of the country are
teaming with farmers to strengthen
agriculture, the basic American in
dustry"
The tendency to write blanket pre-
scription" for all agricultural groups
was the only issue Mr.. Butterworth took
with so-called farm relief" he de-
clared, for the problems which affect
the cranberry growers of New Jersey
would have little or no bearing on the
problems of farmers growing wheat for
export.
Something has happened TO agricul-
ture and to our manufactures" he said.
1T is the working of new Industrial
revolution. The truth is that many of
the sore spots in American industry
today are growing pains incident to an
almost unbelievable increase in the ef-
ficiency Of production. We cannot eX-
pect to progress as a nation without
such growing palms,

The other model stresses the mod

new velvets are sumptuous-ex-
traordinary in texture and in fine
ness, and truly satisfying in design
and coloring. They are the fea-
tured fabric for fall and it is ex-
pected their vogue will increase with
the lowering Of the temperature.
To be sure, these were intro
duced last season, but like the talk
ing movies, no one knew just how
they would take and if they would
be worth extensive development.
They were a relief from the food
of printed crepes and silks, but
their variety was limited. And the
canny French cloth merchants
waited to see whether their popu-
larity would have permanence, OF
be merely a flash.
Before the season was over, how
ever, there was little doubt as tc
what might be expected, and so this
new fall season opens with the most
extensive display Of printed velvetS
one can conceive.

YOUR CHILD
Avoid Giving
All Wanted
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Paradoxically enough the great
est happiness of children can not be
attained by giving them everything
they want.
Like adults, they soon lose that
fine sense OF appreciation that lies
under all real enjoyment, and when
we lose appreciation we lose real
happiness. However, I do not like
to see children disappointed and ]
think most mothers are alike. They
will do almost anything in their
power to keep their promise to
child rather than have him bear dis
appointment.
In this we are right, too, for a
promise to a child should be kept Il
it is humanity possible.
But, speaking of promises, they
never should be given without the
idea of keeping them.
The thing to do is not to get into
The promise making habit. Nc
promise making, no promise break
ing! If a promise is made and there
is a doubt that it can be kept, the
child should be told so. "Well go tc
grandma's If 1t doesn't rain" 81
think daddy may bring you the boat
if he has time to stop at the store.
'IIl see about allowing you to go to
Billy's to play. Perhaps you can II
Billy's mother has no company"
That much for promises. They
should be used sparingly and kept
when made.
But how about the other times
when a child must meet reverses
and disappointments the same as
his elders. and which he must do
continually through life.
It is we'll for him to become &C
customed to disappointment-not
only because it is a toughener, but
because it will in the long run in
crease his sense of appreciation.
A certain mother was in the habit
of taking small presents home to
her boy and girl every time she
went into the city for days shop
ping. A toy apiece, a box OF candy,
books, paints, any little extra thing
classified as a gift.
It was all very nice. But she
realized it wasn't a good habit for
them to get into-the inevitable
expectation and the inevitable full
fllment. 50 one day she brought
nothing.
There was a storm, of course.
After that she purposely omitted
the gift every time or two she went
to town. And the children were
twice as happy on the lucky days.
1t is only a little lesson I have
put down here, but it illustrates.
1t is harmful to cloy chldren's APP
petites for new things and new ex-
periences by handing them every
thing they want. A spoiled child is
seldom happy. The kindest thing
a parent can do is 10 teach him to
bear disappointment well.
