Editorial Comment
Definition of a Farm
(St. Paul Dispatch)


Everyone may think he knows what he Is talking
about when he speaks of a farm but he is wrong. The
census bureau says so. Defining a farm is not al all
the simple thing it appears to be. If the matter is con-
sidered for a moment, it will be seen that the census
bureau is quite right.
A man owns 800 acres of land. cultivates $50 acres
himself and rents out IS acres each to two tenants. Is
this one farm, or three? For the purposes OF the census
to be taken next April it will go for three farms. Again,
a retired capitalist has a twenty-acrc estate in the coun-
try. Is that a farm? The census bureau says not, unless
the capitalist actually c%ultivates the soil. But here an
other difficulty arises. How much must he grow TO
qualify as a farmer? The census bureau throws up its
hands and says that will be up to the judgment of each
individual census enumeration.
Again, a man raises vegetables on two acres of land on
the edge of a town, devoting his whole time to the work
but producing only about 5000 a year in truck. His neigh
Dor has an equal plot of ground works in the city but in
his spare time grows produce worth $500 a year. Are
both of these men farmers Or only one of them and if
so which one? The rule adopted by the census bureau
now for the first time is that no tract of land of less than
three acres will be considered q farm unless it produces
a crop worth at least $3.50 a year. Nothing else matters.
On the ether hand larger tracts must be actually under
cultivation. It seems a little arbitrary but since some
rule is necessary this one is about as good as any.

whereof she is guessing, attention is called to her form

OF the return Of King Charles to the throne after the
death Of the great dictator: The American colonies de-
rived their trend toward independence from that strain in

curtailed the overweaning authority assumed by the
kings, then, some centuries later the people asserted

classes down and the privileges OF the people up.

Better, Not More Cows
Journal)

NVxAAAASCRVAoO Vu4 ~
Milk and butter production in the northwest have IN
creased because of two things. One is an increase in the
number of dairy cows. The other is the cullng out of
"boarder" COWS, and their replacement by cows of larger
milk production. The slump in butter prices Is not Who'll
ly due to larger butter production; it Is partly due to a
greater use Of butter substitutes. Yet the increase in
butter production has played its part in reducing the IN
dividual farmers income from this source.
The department of agriculture still urges farmers to
eliminate their poor COWS. and that advice is always good.
Through the cow-testing associations it is possible to
learn accurately when a dairy COW has become a liability.
By eliminating every such animal, the farmer increases
his net income. He can produce an equal amount OF
butterfat from fewer cows. with less feed consumption.
II he keeps the same number Of cows, his production will
increase. Losses might be turned into profits.
It is evident that the dairy farmer, collectively, has
made a mistake by increasing his herds In number, as
well as improving their quality. Government figures
shows an increase Of 19 per cent in Minnesota last year
in the number of dairy cows. but Minnesosa's milk pro-
duction increased As per cent. Wisconsin increased its
northwestern states was "a per cent, with a national In
crease Of 26 per cent. Experts say that an annual In
crease Of one per cent is all that is necessary to keep up
with increasing demand.
II the average yield per cow Is to be increased by Gull
ing and better breeding, then no increase in the number
Of cows IS needed at all. Obviously, the farmer who quits
wasting feed on poor producers Is wise, and the higher
average production Is q good sign. But greater total pro-
duction, under the present conditions, can be q calamity.
Greater efficiency in dairying means q better living for
the producer, but dairying, like any other industry, can
be overdone. It is always wise to ull out the "boarder'
cows. But when production passes demand, it may not
be 50 wise to fill With efficient cows, all the gaps made In
the herd through these Examinations

The distress may be slight or only

ULCERS OF THE STOMACH AND
DUODENUM

Ulcers Of the stomach and duo
denum do not heal as rapidly as
ulcers In other parts of the body be-
cause Of being subject to the action
Of the digestive juices. An ulcer OF
this sort may be caused by anything
which will weaken the protective
mucous surface Lining, and allow the
powerful juices to actually penetrate
into the muscular tissue.
Seventy-five per cent Of stomach
ulcers are located In the small area
toward the pyloric end Of the stomach
and the upper and back walls. In
ulcer Of the duodenum, the ulcer Is
usually located in the first inch and
a half in at least ninety-five per cent
Of the cases. The size of an ulcer
may vary from a pinhead to quite q
large surface. It may occur In sew
eral places, although usually only one
place Is liberated at q time.
At first, the ulcer involves only the
under mucous membrane or the
mucous tissue, but as 1t deepens 1t
affects the muscular wall and may
eve penetrate through this. Where
the ulcers have been in development
for some time, adhesionS or scar tissue
result from the continued inflamma-
ton, and sometimes the stomach will
become adherent to adjacent surfaces,
such as the pancreas, the small In
testine. liver, spleen or gall bladder.
When the seal tissue is extensive, the
condition becomes quite serious.
Sometimes a mass of inflaIned tissue
may block the pyloric valve so that
complete emptying Of the stomach
contents is impossible. There is US
ually an excessive gastric secretion.
The stomach may contain as much
as from one to five hundred &C OF
highly acid gastric Juice which causes
an unusual burning and makes the
patient wish to vomit, or to be nause-
ated. On vomiting he feels relieved.
He may raise as much Al q quart OF
this material. After q few Of these
daily attacks the patient gets into q
thoughtful habit of providing his bed
side with some soda and water just
to have it handy in case the too IA

dominions and influenced the assent to establishing the
Irish Free State. But for their surrender and the crea-
ton Of new lords to dilute the e-hards at the time of
the Free State foundation, the house of lords might have
found itself abolished.
But Englanders cling tcnaciously to their medieval her
itage none the less for their democracy, end it is not
likely, unless the Prince of Wales accelerates the ten
dency by some deliberate act in that direction, that
the kingdom will give up its monarchal rule any more
so than it has given up its Yeomen, its Beef Eaters or
other ~trappings of immemorial days.
The depressing conditions which after effects have
left in the wake Of the war, in spite of the frightening
years since that world tragedy, inevitably must cause
England to turn to some change as a way out of the
economic difficulties b~esetting the country SO distress
ingiy now, but a royalty which does not produce these
difficulties, because it is sovereignty embodied in a fig
urchead, must not necessarily be discarded as a remedy
for commercial and industrial degeneration. In fact. it
would seem that in a possible attrition of parties, the
king might prove the ncutralizins piece of political me-
chan!sm to keep the nation in balance.
II is interesting in this connection to ponder the role
OF the reigning family of England. King George is liked
by his subjects and the Prince of Wales. heir to the
throne, is one of the most popular men in the world.
Says the countess:
1T is not a question of whether we want hereditary
kingship to cease or continue. It is csasing whether we
like it o. not.
ACoay, however, IL IN Pleseut AlIiS Is III last VI Ao
line, it will be because he and his few immediate ances-
tors have been such admirable monarchs that they have
made their kingslip entirely superfluous. They have rul-
cd SO democratically that the people have learned the
art of government themselves; the guiding hand of a
monarch no longer seems necessary
If the Prince OF Wales never becomes king. it will
not be because OF unpopularity, the countess says, add
ing that he is probably the most popular figure in public
life at the present moment.
This heir to the throne, who hitherto, with the vigor
of youth, may have followed sports and pleasures with
untiring zest, is every day showing more clearly that he

Opulence and Divorce

Exploration expeditions, isolated camps and settle
mcnts, and prisons bear out the wel-known fact that a
number of men, cooped together for months at a time,
develop unreasonilg hatreds among themselves. The
monotony of the same few faces, voices and habits day
in and DAY out, year after year, is aggravated by cramp-
ed quarters.
A Chicago clubwoman contends that the small apart
nnent and furnished rooms for light housekeeping have
the same psychological effect on young couples with the
result that the divorce rate is high among them. She
is convinced that the caging of couples in one, two or
three rooms is one of the major causes of divorce.
While the furnished room or small apartment may
not be the most fertile field for cultivating matrimonial
bliss, it certainly will not be argued that the divorce rate
among those thus domiciled is as high as that among
jewellers in palatial mansions and luxurious apartments
with four baths and servants quarters. If it is higher
than that among couples housed in dwellings and apart
ments of average size, then probably the cause is a gen.
eral economic state which makes the poorer quarters
necessary.
Moreover, inexpensive habitations contribute to a hap
py married life on limited means by reducing financial
worries. And how could a love nest be coy and spacious
at the same time?
