Jules Verne dream before the thing
itself stands in solid stone and met
al in the midst of us.
Take the dream of great Vertical
Cities-giant metropolitan buildings
housing whole populations. Recent
ly group of collegians studying
mechanical engineering were taken
on tour of structural wonders in
New York City. One point of call
was Manhattan's largest hostelry-
the 43-story New Yorker Hotel
where nearly 10000 persons were
accommodated every month. What
they saw included: An electrical
plant capable of lighting a city of
10000 people; pumps that handle
100000 gallons of water a day; a
refrigeration plant that turns out
the equivalent of 422 tons of ice
every "a hours; a laundry that does
$4,000 pieces daily; a private post
office equipped to handle 5000 let
ters between one midnight and the
next; machines for putting creases
in close to 800 miles of trousers a
year; elevators which during ten
months Travelled a distance greater
than from the earth to the moon; a
plant for freshening 100000 cubic
feet of air minute; and much
more besides.

1t is not necessary that a Christ
mas tree be perfectly symmetrical
Christmas trees cut as part of &
thinning operation are often one
sided, but a One-sided tree can be
placed in a corner of the room OF
against the wall where it will serve
its purpose fully as well as a per-
fectly rounded tree.
Demand for feeder pigs has in
creased in recent years, says the U.
S. Department of Agriculture, prin-
cipally from Corn Belt farmers and
men who make a business of fat
tening pigs. Garbage-feeding estab-
lishments and serum plants also
buy feeder pigs. To sell as feeders,
pigs should weigh from IS to 100
pounds, or they may even weigh up
to 120 pounds.
Because tuberculosis in livestock
is slow in developing and causes
little change in the external appear
ance of the affected animals, some
people believe the disease does lit
tie damage to the livestock indus
try. AS a matter of fact, this dis
ease formerly cost the livestock in
dustry in the United States about
$40,00O,000 a year. However, the re-
suits of the cooperative work of tu-
berculosis eradication during the
past few years indicate a material
reduction in these losses.
Cutting small trees for lumber is
wasteful of wood, says the Forest
Service. 1t costs more than twice as

sized tree to cut depends ON the

published a leaflet telling how to
cut woods economically. This leaf
let, No. 55-L, may be obtained from
the U. S. Department of Agriculture,

Dormant Sprays

Spraying during the dormant per-
iod of the trees is the best remedy
for the San Jose scale, one of the
serious orchard pests of the coun-
try. Lime-sulphur sprays, petroleum
sprays, and soap washes are effec-
tive against this pest. Spray the
trees in late fall after the foliage is
off, in the winter, or in spring be-
fore the foliage appears. 1t is usu-
ally desirable to prune infested
trees severely, to simplify the work
of spraying and to promote new
growth of non-infested wood.

A Challenge To Freemen

What is the meaning of this wei
hallyhoo?
What is the meaning of the wei
radio talk by Mr.. Raskob, Republi-
can chairman of the Democratic
Committee?
What is the meaning of this con-
stant assertion that prohibition is
on its last legs, that 1.-The tide has
turned" that "the country is going
wet?"
What is the meaning of this un-
| scrupulous, tireless movement in
the Republican party for an adverse
report on prohibition from the law
4 enforcement commission, which for
merly held very correctly that the
advisability of the policy was none
of their business, having been de-
termined by the people and the
Congress?
What is the meaning of this eff
fort to salt prohibition enforcement
with vets, to build up gigantic
trade in wine materials sold to the
homes?
What is the meaning of these con-
stant "feelers" appearing in the
press to determine whether or not
the people will accept a recognized
notification of the prohibition law?
This is what it means:
That there are few wealthy men
in the United States who consider
that they are "the people," who are
financing the anti-prohibition agita-
tion and who consider the opinions
of the masses absolutely incOnse-
quential.
That the Raskob machine holds in
utter contempt the millions of pro-
hibition Democrats of the South and
the West, believing that this whole
matter is to be determined by con-
troll of organization rather than by
the will of the people.
That there are men in the Repub-
lican party who are willing to be-
tray the great dry Republican ma
jority to the vets despite the fact
that the drys are responsible for the
election of Mr.. Hoover and have re-
peatedly given their mandate to ad- |
ministration by the return of Con-
crosses having an overwhelming |
dry majority and the rolling up of |
an unprecedented dry support for
Mr.. Hoover in 1928.
1t is an insult to the West and the |
South, which are dry. 1t is an in
suit to the tremendous dry minority
in the Eastern states, a minority
much larger than is generally real
ized. 1t is an affront to manhood. 1t
challenges the competency of gov
ernment to make decisions and
bring them into effect 1t strikes at
Democracy itself. 1t is predicated
upon an assumption that the mil
lions of dry citizens of the United
States are so lacking in intelligence
and courage and self-respect that
they can be deprived by chicanery
and corruption of what they have
won at the polls. 1t is amazing and
it is utter folly.-CIarence True Will

War Explosives Make
. Peace Projects Possible

Explosives in all forms, usually
designated as powder" have beer
greater aid to development OF
comfortable living in peace time
than in war. This statement is sub
stantiated in the American Maga-
zine, by a chronicle of what the
force of chemicals has done. Much
more than 5O0,OO0,OOO pounds of ex-
plosives were used in the past year,
sufficient to shatter four billion
tons of stone.
Explosives" the article cOntin-
ues, "shatter eight tons of rock per
pound of powder. King Solomon
worked $4,000 men for seven years
in his stone quarries to build his
temple. Heat, water, and wedges
were used. King Hiram, Solomon's
contemporary, with 10000 men, un-
earthed only 10000 tons of silver in
Spain in one year. Recently, with
5000 men armed with dynamite on
the same location, 100000 tons of
ore were taken out and from it S0,-
900 tons of copper were smelted."
Dynamite, 1t is added, which came
into use just before 1860, increased
coal production from 100000 tons
a year to more than 570,OO0,00O The
productio nof cement is also due to
dynamite.
without high explosives" con-
tinues the article, modern rail-
roads, canals, and routes of COM
munication could not have been
built.
Dynamite clears forests and
farms of trees, stumps and bould-
ers. 1t arrests fires in the wilder
ness. 1t saved Baltimore, San Fran
cisco and New Orleans in times of
disaster. From the simple digging
of post holes or the splitting of logs,
to the most titanic engineering
plans, high explosives, once thought
useful in war only, are playing an
unlimited part in the march of pro-
gress."

Night Rain

There shall be rain at night,
When the long darkness covers al
the sky,
When the long roads grow quiet
and the sounds
Of the long day are fallen unto
sleep,
There shall be rain at night
And wind and stormy clouds,
And all those things
That bring refreshing to the weary
heart.
The leaves will shine again,
The sad, brown leaves,
And the forgotten beauty of old
grass
Woo the chill air with fragrance.
There will be exultation among the
pines
And the dark cedars,
And a deep chanting in their Win
ter hearts;
New dreams will quicken in the
hemlock tree
When the night rain descends.
l shall remember
Rain in green gardens; ON a russet
Now that the French have decided
that they won the war they are
starting to fight among themselves
to find out whose fault it was.

And night of live
Curtained with rain.
