Surest Farm Relief

NY farm relief worthy of the must come
II from the farmer himself, in the opinion of agri-
cultural authorities, with governmental agencies
ranking poor second-best in any real improvement
of the farm situation Increased efficiency the part
of the farmer himself will go furthest towards i'm
proving rural conditions.
There are certain basic principles which must be
followed if farmer is to succeed he should. The
first of these is that great share of the products
used by the farm family should be produced at home
second that the farm land should not be robbed
after year, but should be kept up and improved; and
third that the farmer should keep livestock and grow
more than cash crop.
Failure to realize to the fullest upon certain in
herent advantages of farm life is deprving many
farmers of large share of the ready cash which their
fellow farmers securing each year. Profits from
the poultry flock is of these things, to cite
outstanding example.
Farmers in some sections of the country max
ing each hen the farm pay net profit of between
$3.50 and $3.50 year. Many farmers, however, over
look this valuable of income, leaving it to
their wives "pin money" proposition. Improve
ment of farm poultry stock principally by taking adj
vantage of greatly improved hatchery product has
made possible large profits from poultry activities in
recent years.

the sudden death of Walter H. Eckersal, one of
the greatest football stars of all time, also fam

by heart attack at the age of forty-two.

weight ranged from only about 1876 to las pounds yet
such his speed skill and audacity that he moved
down heavyweight rivals who crossed his path.
By the younger generation of sport fans he was
widely known and acclaimed football writer and
referee of the highest rank His contributions to the
sporting page will be sadly missed by his admiriny
followers.
Eckeralls early death will again revive the argu-

Mr. Hoover On The Panic OF 1879.
Editorial from The New York World.
May 8, 1901

May 8. 1901
"AlI slumps are the inexorable conse-
qnences Of the destructive forces of booms. :
SAID President Hoover in his address before
tne Chamber Of Commerce of the United
states. III we inquire into the primary
cause OF the great boom on the stock ex-
changes last year." he continued, I'VE End
rests mainly on certain forces inherent
IN human minds" All this i, quite true.
Emotions have rhythm; when optimism
70 overdone pessimism is almost sure To
Hollow. and In the financial worlI undue
speculative optimism paves the road to
depression.
Mr. Hoover says that in the past these
vast contagious Of speculation have proved
uncontrollable by any method that the
economist. the business man or the sov-
eminent has been able to devise. That
was certainly the case with the earlier
financial crises through which this CONN.,
Try has passed. 1t is not at all certain
that this 10 true with regard to the stock
market panic Of 1929. Business men
nnanciers and economists were fully aware
OF the danger. and they repeatedly indi-
Gated the necessary preventive. 1t was
tne government which blocked all proven.
tive efforts. Il was President Coolidge who
allowed himself to be quoted as saving
early in 1928 that "the record breaking
increase In brokers' loans is not large
enough to cause unfavorable comment
it was Mr.. Coolidge and Mr.. Mellon, one or
the other. and sometimes both, who re-
peatediy rushed into print with roseate
statements when the stock market showed
sigma OF nervousness or Of growing stale.
and Il was the Federal Reserve Board. of
which Mr.. Mellon is chairman, which re-
peatedly refused to permit some Of the
Reserve Banks to advance their discount
rates and curb the speculative mania.
During these feverish days Mr.. Hoover
sat In the Cabinet. He knew the condi-
tons then as well as he does now. He
knew that capital was being diverted from
legitimate business to stimulate, as he
now says. waste, extravasance and un-
sound enterprise, with the inevitable col
lapse in panic" But did Mr. Hoover
warn the country Of impending catastro-
pheI Not one word Of caution escaped
him. Deplorine a misfortune after the
event. as he now does. does not repair the
damage which word in time might have
prevented or at least diminished.
