TEST MEAT TENDERNESS
 IN BELIEF IT'S INHERITED

WASHINGTON, D. O., Nov. 13.- Scientists of the United States De- partmene Of Agriculture believe the tenderness of meat is hereditary.
 A machine to test tenderness has been perfected and is now being used in cooperative research pro- gram with 30 state experiment sta- tions seeking to isolate and per petuate factors of tenderness.
 The simple testing apparatus con sists of a blade so arranged that il may be drawn through small pieces of meat by exerting pressure with hand crank.
 A scale records the pressure re- quired to cut through the meat. The machine which has been used to test more than 2,000 sam pies of pork, beef, and lamb is said to give remarkably high correla- ltion with the opinion of judges who sample and score the meat aft CT it has been machine tested.

Better Day Is Seen
For Farm Industries
From the Sioux Falls Daily ArEus-Leader.

From the Sioux Falls Daily Argus Leader
When the new era Of prosperity
dawnS-as it surely will-reason exists
for believing that agriculture and allied
| industries wilk enjoy a better position
than they have in the past 10 or IL
years.
Agriculture has long been a profitable
occupation. with many comfortable in
comes and estates erected upon a
foundation of thrift, work and i1telli-
gent management in the rural districts.
1t has had its ups and downs, but the
record as a whole up to the late months
OF 1920 was good The years innme-
diately preceding the def1ation that took
place then were exceptionally good. In
the years following, however, agri-
culture has not been on a level with
other industries.
The distinction is due to various
causes. One is the fact that the agri-
cultural housekeeping was not SO thor
ough as it might have been at that
time. Politicians started a great hue
and cry about farm relief and did
much to impede natural adjustments,
In truth, they prolonged these inevitable
changes.
That is only one phase OF 1t; however.
Agriculture in many countries became
geared to tremendously high pace
OF production in the war DAYS. There
was a demand for all that the farms
could produce and q great agricultural
plant was set in motion. It was SO huge
that 1t did not contract readily when
| the demand subsidized Farm relief
agitation slackened the pace Of the
curtaIment that would have followed
IN due course, prolonging the revision
Tor many years.
But now the picture appears to be
changing. The industrial deflation Is
well under way and the farmer Is nc
longer IN the position of being the only
| thoroughly debated occupant of the
economic circle. Other industries are
gradually falling into line. When these
changes are finished, we are likely 10
mo agriculture on the same basis &C

old-time fair profits from farming OBJ
erationS.
This does not mean that future farm
revenues are to fall into the class of
easy money and that large profits will
accrue 10 every one who owns or oper-
ateS piece OF land. But it does mean
mat agriculture will regain its Mace as
a stable occupation in which those who
are willing to work intelligentIv will

Street Cars and Traffic.

In interviews with The Star, PreSi-

II Is not the displeasure, It Is the way

but it Is fact dispute 1t who willy.

The superarguer, as one might call
him. ought to reform Probably he feels
as much himself, but he f1nds the job
dificult.
He ought to reform for his own sake,
but most Of all for the sake of others.
In a world full Of fault finding and
recrimination It Is every civilized mans
duty to do his part to present the OPP
posite face to the world. Perhaps every
such man thinks he does.
But does he? Alas, the answer IS
only too well knownl Not only are
there these strange fellows who are
endlessly disputing the most incontro-
vertible evidence and opinions, but
there are many worthy persons who
achieve the same effect by a belief,
which they seem to hold without quite
realizing it. that the person to whom
they are talking cannot possibly know
enough to know anything.
An ugly word for this attitude is
contempt" A great many more PEI
pie display it In their daily contacts
than have any right to 1t. Here Is q
young man who happens to be hand
some himself and he has the idea that
only such handsome fellows as him
self can be worth much. When he is
talking TO another with homely fea-
lures. he often finds 1t difficult to
credit the other with any particular
brain power.
Oftentimes mere age will give q man
an exalted respect for himself, and a
bit of contempt for young man just
be sillier. Young men grow older
quickly enough. eve we're about TO
say Immediately, but that wouldn't be
exactly truc.) Consider the case Of
Eugene O'Neill, the playwright. In
1915 which wasn't very long ago, he
was a young man with q lot Of hair
and few plays in manuscript. Today
he has 38 volumes to his credit, and
his latest play Is the sensation of the
season. You never can tell.
It doesn't pay to hold disrespect for
others, no matter how they may impress
one. To dispute endlessly with other
people is a mild way of showing con-
tempt for their opinions. The resent
ment which this course engenders is
not to be incurred lightly. nor without
good and sufficient reason. It is bet
ter to keep ones mouth shut. But
who can do that?
