How to Go Broke on the Farm

Any farmer can enumerate more than 10 ways to &c
broke on the farm, in these days Of high taxes and low
prices; but the ones pointed out by the State Agricul-
tural College of Tennessee are about as effective as
any that could be suggested. The 40 ways to go broke
copied herewith do not all apply to North Dakota con-
ditions, but most of them do. Here they are:
/. Grow only one crop.
2. Keep no livestock.
3. Regard chickens and a garden as nuisances.
4. Take everything from the soil and return nothing
S. Don't stop gullies or grow cover crops-let the top
soil wash away, then you will have bottom land"
6. Don't plan your farm operations. It's hard work
thinking-trust to luck.
Z. Regard your woodland as you would a coal mine:
cut every tree, sell the timber.
8. Hold fast to the idea that the methods Of your
grandfather are good enough for you.
9. Be MISREPRESENTATION Join with your %neighbors in
any form of cooperation.
10. Mortgage your farm for every dollar it will stand
to buy things you would have cash to pay for if you fol-
lowed a good system of farming.

The Boy Scout and His Dad

If the bows of America should be asked to describe an
ideal father and should proceed to answer without fore
thought, in the usual boyish fashion, they would prob
ably picture a man who was liberal with spending
money, who was partial to sports and none too strict
about splitting the wood or moving the lawn.
Such characteristics are doubtless necessary in the
man who would make a companion of his boy, but the
real qualities of an ideal father lie deeper than merely
those bents of mind which touch on the pleasures OF
life. If a Boy Scout should be asked to enumerate the
qualifications of an ideal father he would, without hest
tation, search for the desired characteristics In the Scout
Law. This law was written for boys. but it has a uni
versal application and can be applied with equal force
to the lives of men. This law demands that the boy who
takes the Scout Oath must be trustworthy, loyal, helpful.
friendly, courteous, kind, %obedient, cheerful, thrifty,
brave, clean, reverent.
II a father would keep the respect of his son he must
be trustworthy in all of his relations at home and out
side. He must be loyal to his family, his associates and
his country. He should be helpful, friendly, courteous
and kind, not only to the members Of his own circle, but
to all men and living creatures with whom he comes IN
contact. He must be obedient to the laws OF God and
to the laws of his country If he would inculcate respect
for legal restraints into the heart OF his son. He must
be cheerful, even if cheerfulness is an effort when LIES
trials are hardest, because cheerfulness makes for COM
partnership, and companionship generates that flame in
which is forged those hooks of steel by which a father
may grapple the soul of a son to his own heart.
He should be thrifty, because thrift is one Of the vr-
tues that lead to contentment and peace OF mind. He
must be brave, because these times demand strong men
with opinions and a will, who are liable to live above the
fog in public duty and in private thinking" He must
be clean, because only thus can he hope, through his
daily contacts, to build such habits into the life of a son.
He must be reverent in his attitude toward the laws OF
God, because these laws underlie every element of life.
There is only one perfect Father, as there has been only
one perfect Son in the history Of the world. No human
father can be divine, but he can pattern his fatherhood
after the One most perfect and so, by his life, set an
example which he would be unashamed to have his own
son follow.

How About Their Successors?

AN$AA
Al capone, the beer baron Of Cook county, Illinois, and
super gangman. had hardly pleaded guilty to federal
charges before the underworld elected q new king to d.
rect its various rackets. Following on the heels Of
Capones arrest was that Of Dutch" Schultz, 4 Bronx
gunman, thug and racketeer. Gangs that made his
reign possible met also and named their new big
fellow"
Johnny Torrio, 1.-THE Immune" is to take up the racket
where Capone laid it down and Dutch will find an
able successor in Vincent Coll.
Unless the succession in ~gangland Is smashed, the
federal authorities have merely scotched the snake.
The federal government through the income tax bu-
reau found a very powerful weapon against gangland.
For years booteggers have been evading income taxes,
evidently with impunity. Something has happened in
the administration of the tax department of the federal
government. There is evidently a very healthy hook-up
between the income and the prohibition sleuths. That
is as it should be. The whole nasty business should be
closed up and the big and small city gangs put out Of
business. 1t is going to take time, but the first step Is
to squelch gang succession.
There are many ugly rackets which do not involve
liquor running. In many Of the large cities legitimate
business pays heavy tribute to hoodlums. Chicago and
New York are the places where the racketeers have
prospered. Some businessmen have been forced to pay
dearly to operate.
Millions in graft have been collected under the noses
of conniving police, some of whom shared in the filthy
spoils. II every police official were as fearless as Com
Mulrooney Of New York whose orders are:
The minute they bat an eye lock 'em right up" there
would be an end to much of the racketeering.
The federal government has demonstrated to the po-
lice Of the nation that ~gangsters are not above the law.
Any city with an honest, courageous police administra-
ton can rout gangland. Break the tie between dirty
politics and the %racketeer; then the battle is more than
half won. f!

Many of our sensations are 50 dis
tinct that we can recognize them
easily; others are so obscure, that
few people really realize that they
have them. In addition to being able
to see, hear, smell and taste, we are
able to feel pressure, to tell the diff
ference between hot and cold and to
feel pain. Besides these sensations
there are those that come to us from
muscles, from the semi circular
canals in the internal ear and sensa-
tions from internal organs. Our mus
cles and semi-circular canals help to
tell us where we happen to be In
space. They help us to balance our
selves and in other ways to live in q
difficult environment.

all of them. Indeed, SO much de-

Aviation's Progress
tMinneanolis Trihune)

The progress of aviation in the United States during
the past five years as revealed by a recently prepared
Department of Commerce table is little less than as
founding. The table shows, for example, that domestic
airway mileage jumped from 1882 in 1926 to 29,887 In
1880, a gain well in excess of 200 per cent. Over the
same period the mileage of foreign airway extensions
increased from a mere 152 to the amazing total Of II. 1862.
Similarly express and freight carried by the nations air
lines rose from 1~,733,O9o pounds in 1926 to 2J869R55 in
1890; mail carried by contractors increased from 377,2o6I
pounds to 85l3,675 pounds in the same time; gasoline
consumed by aircraft in scheduled operations grew from
o63,el7 gallons in 1925 to 14,54s,477 in 1890, and the Pc
Rod saw the average Of miles flown daily grow from
an inconsequential II $50 to the formidable total Of
To-, 220.
In the face of such figures as these, it is Just = trifle
difficult to believe with some skeptics that the future
Of commercial aviation has been vastly exaggerated and
over-rated. The gains recorded in the ~five-year period
are SO consistently huge as to make one wonder, as a
matter of fact, whether the potentialities Of commercial
aviation have ever been generally appreciated. The fact
that these gains continued in 1880, and that in many re-
spects the industry Jared better in that year Of depres-
sion than it did in the preceding one of prosperity, is In
itself evidence of an unusually sturdy growth. Today
this country can boast 1919 airports, $4,000 miles Of
lighted airways, and a. companies operating $50 planes
valued at $14,0o0,000 over 125 routes. Furthermore 1t can
point to a record, for the latter half Of 1880. Of only one
fatality to every 1s.0oo, 900 miles floyn over air lines by
licensed planes.
1t is in the steady progress which aviation has made
in the field Of safety that we can probably find the key
to the remarkable progress which the industry as . whole
has made during the past five years. While the period
has witnessed many spectacular and tragic mishsps. the
fact should not be ignored that each year has been
marked by most impressive safety gains. When e72 army
planes can take part in intricate and prolonged ma
neuvers over q considerable area Of the country without
the loss Of = single life or the destruction Of . single
machine. there seems to be good reason Tor believing
that the hazards Of aviation, which constitute its great
est problem. are being successfully attacked. Such .
record. made in this country only last month. offers one
explanation Of why aviation y experiencing = most re-
markabls growth. II win long stand - . credit, not only
to the army filters who made It possible, but to an In
dustry which has pioneered with marked success along
the paths Of safety.

Otto Kahn, one of the suavest of
Manhattan's speakers, is said to have
swooned from stage fright on the oc-
casion of his first public speech.
Which recalls to mind that some-
one told me lately of a certain Sam
uel Kayzer, who is said to have
coached vast numbers of prominent
speakers, including Mons. Kahn.
Kayzer is now out Hollywood curing
the new talkie players of speech diff
ficulties. 1t is none other than the
famous Leslie Carter, however, who
is credited with giving voice advice
to Norma Talmadge. Laura Hope
Crewes, another Broadway veteran,
put Gloria Swanson over the first

lilly Losch, the Austrian dancer
with just about the loveliest hands in
the world, reports that she did her
first dance steps to hurdy-gurdy
playing outside her Vienna BIRTH
place.

volumes on the subject of that gentle
passion.

President HCOver's Latest Move

World conditions are chaotic and call for strong REM
edies. President Hoover believes he has a specific for
some of the economic ills in proposing to postpone Ger
many's reparation payments one year from this July
He is grasping at a straw, as it were, in hope that sur
cease from the war debts for even a year may assist Eu-
rope to regain her financial equilibrium.
1t is too early to know whether the remedy proposed
will hurt or help the patients involved. The whole
world is enmeshed in the economic tangle which the pay
,ment of war obligations entails. The reaction to
Hoover's proposal has been good.
F1urries in the stock markets, however, may mean
little. The essential factor is the reception the Hoover pro-
posal received in the capitals Of the world. There seems to
be a general opinion that the American executive is on the
right track.
There can be no immediate decision. The United
States senate must ratify any modification of the req
arations agreement. President Hoover is Of the belief
that this body. the majority Of which has fought him on
most issues, will agree to his general proposal. 1ndica-
lions are that England and France may agree, although
France is always an uncertain quantity and has been
most obdurate on the question of payments to her, while
uuite ready to delay payment Of her war obligations to
others.
What leaders fear is the financial collapse of Ger
many if reparation payments are insisted upon without
some temporary abatement such as President Hoover
suggests. That would strengthen the hands OF the Com
munists who have made rapid strides recently.
Unofficially, President Hooyers proposal has been re.
ceived kindly in France. One leading Paris newspaper
says:
'It constitutes the first gesture toward a new exam
lO~A1ination of the reparation and debt question"
~ Russian leaders are urging Germany to unite in revo'
thdution and thus cut 1.-THE Gordian knot OF the German
bangle"
roo Such a coup would increase depression here. Ger
~ ANY has had financial support from this nation. Re
Uife 1iation Of her obligations through a governments
would work havoc in American financial circles
All ssident Hoover has sounded the alarm to congress
ne .5nal leaders and if rumor can be believed, he has i'm
'oeH!essed them with the necessity Of some drastic actor

TO-DAY IS THEA
SAgHAI
RUSSIAN REVOLT PLOT

fLOl
On June "a. 1917, a plot to bring
about an armed revolt, when the all
Russian Congress of Soviets would be
in session, was revealed.
The B%olsheviki, who planned the
revolt, had hoped to arrest the men,
bers Of the provisional government
and assume full power. They also
planned to recall all the soldiers
serving at the front.
This action came after the Boil
sheviki had held mass meetings
among the troops, preaching defeat
ism and surrender and urging the
soldiers not to obey the orders o.
bourgeois officers" The provisional
government, aware Of the peril Of this
propaganda, did not attempt to end
1t by force.
The following month the Bol-
shevists staged a two-day revolt,
which was put down by Cossack
troops. At this time Alexander Ker-
ensky endeavored to bring order out
of chaos.
