THE I4TH AMENDMENT AT WORK

We all rejoice in the victory achieved by our group
in New Orleans, over q scheme to deprive them of the
privilege to work on the public docks Of that city, but this
achievement would not have been possible had not large
interests feared their business would be affected; thus
again the 18th Amendment was made to play the role of
protecting vested rights. The steamship companies got
out an injunction on the plea that the ordinance would
deprive steamship companies of their property without
due process of law; that it would interfere with inter-
state commerce and that its purpose was political. Though
our race benefited, let Us not mistake the motive was not
a~Itruistic, and that ~selhshness and greed are placed above
human rights.

THE UTILITIES AS TAXPAYERS

A good many officeholders have had a pleasant
time damning the utilities of the country. By rights, they
should really feel somewhat obliged to them, inasmuch as
the utility industry, as a taxpayer, is one Of the largest
and most stable contributors to the cost of running the
government.
In 1929, according to an article in Public Utilities
FOrtnlghtly, 2,772 utility companies submitting balance
sheets to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue earned
a net of S793,271,1S Out Of this they paid an income tax
of S85, 064,517. Other takes amounted to S219.6O8517.
or a total of almost S305. 600 900. Furthermore. 146O util-
iy companies which went in the red during the year were
forced TO pay taxes aggregating S15,434,218. AS a con-
sequence, total taxes for the reporting companies were
more than S320,O00 ,O00Iclose to half Of the total income
reported to the Revenue Bureau.
What may such a tax policy as this do to the utility
industry? Now, as in the past, it is one of the most pro-
gresslve OF industries. 1t has maintained its employment
and wage standards at an extraordinarily high level dur
ing depression Even so, there can be no question that the
fear of more e~xorbitant taxation deters executives and
stockholders from authorizing developments and expan-
siOnS that would otherwise be made. No industry can do
its best when it is wondering how long it Will be before
It IS taxed out OF existence. The utility companies and
their customers should pay a fair share Of government
expense. But when taxes begin to approximate so per
cent of profit, it is time we did some serious thinking.
There is a lot of Philosophy and good common
sense in the announcement Of the Married Mems Unem-
%ployment League.
1--WE heartily endorse their platform" We believe
that we can have no stable prosperity unless industry
makes a reasonable profit after paying to its employees
a purchasing wage.
There IS a Law called by economists ''The Law of
Diminishing Returns" This Rule tells us by ruthless
logic that the more we cut wages. the less buying mower
remains in the country.
Factories can not run without orders. Merchants
cannot sell goods with customers. Farmers cannot move
crops unless the workers eat three full meals a day.
Cannot we learn from past follies or must we al
ways be spanked by good Mother Experience before we
practice common sense.
Labor runs from 10 to IL per cent of the cost OF
the average manufactured article. Prosperity cannot be

Hidden Fortune Lies
In High Quality Eggs

Two men went into the chicken bus
mess on the same day rs years ago.
Each had $4,000 in cash. Each borrowed
$1,000 to complete the investment. They
built places almost exactly alike They
bought the same number of chicks
from the same source.
Each built up a flock of 1000 hens
during the next five years. They lived
for 20 years side by side. Each appeared
equally efficient. Both got high egg pro-
duction from their birds. Both spent
money at the same rate. Neither re-
ceived penny from outside sources
Yet, at the end of the IS years, one
is worth $4,000 and the other $4,000
How did it happen? One man was
more careful than the other in one
phase of the work He took better care
of his eggs and marketed a high per-
centage of extras. He didn't seem to
get much for his eHorts-only a cent
or two dozen. But he saved the
cent or two and put it out on inter-
est. In 20 years it amounted to $4,000

The Modern School
MUSIC FOR ALL
BY Rosa Zimmerman
Supervisor Of Music, Everett

Music has had most important in
fluence over the lives of men in all
stages of civilization. It is natural
expression which is today recognized
as valuable factor in child training.
Music now occupies a regular place in
the school curriculum. 1t affords enjoy
ment and pleasure and at the same
time furnishes experience which calls
for cooperation, alertness and other de-
sirable character traits which the mod
ern school is making a special effort
to develop.
The music course in the modern
school program aims to give the child
an opportunity for musical expression
and to teach him to enjoy good music.
1t is not intended as a training for
professional musicians.
The "song approach" is used to de-
velop sense of music appreciation:
During the first and second years the
child learns to sing many simple songs
about things in which he is interested.
He memories them after hearing them
sung by the teacher or other pupils
He learns to beat time as member of
the rhythm band OF by some other
method which may be used to develop
his sense of rhythm.
AS he advances in the grades he

designations show that although rabbit
raising can be included in the general
scheme of agriculture, some unscrupu-
lous promoters are taking advantage
of present conditions to impress pro-
spective investors that fortune awaits
them in the rabbit business. They pre-
dict big returns, which, in most cases,
cannot be borne out in actual practice.
Numerous complaints have been re-
ceived regarding various companies of
this nature. These concerns sell rab-
bits at very high prices and promise
to buy back the meat or fur, or both,
but they are interested primarily in
selling breeding stock. Definite action
is being taken toward protecting citi-
zens against these promotion schemes.

Pasture Is Important
Part of Dairy Farm

Agriculture is in very competitive
position and probably will remain so
for at least two or three years. The
tendency will be for the dairyman to
drop out who is following dairying
under handicap Of poor COWS or poor
set-up as far as land and crops are
concerned. Pastures are one Of the
most important crops for the dairy
farmer. At times such as this when
there is question as to what crop
can be raised on which some returns
can be secured 1t would seem that It
would be well for every dairy farmer
to give careful consideration to the
question Of pastures.
One should consider the pasture
from the standpoint Of crop which
needs to be seeded and irrigated only;
possibly some fertilizer will be needed
if the ground has been badly run
down. The COWS do the harvesting.
The crop is one which is natural
feed for the herd and from which
they return good dividends in extra

omical production. When one observes
many herds in the county now poor
in flesh and rough in coat, one can
not help but know that a good pasture
crop would do more than anything else
to put these COWS back into good con-
dition. Because of the fact that young
pasture growth carries rather high
percentage of proteins, pastures save
considerable on grain feeding. Here
where we have plenty of water for the
pasture crop and where we can get
such excellent growth of sweet clover
or the mixed grass and clover pas
lures, it does seem that they should
be given careful consideration by those
maintaining dairy herds. Leonard Heg-
nauer, extension agronomist from the
State College, in company with the
county agent, visited several farmers
of the county recently in establishing
some pasture demonstrations to show
what could be accomplished through
pasturage. Mr.. Hegnauer particularly
emphasized the need of rotation graz
ing, that is, the division of the pasture
into three areas and pasturing each
earea only to the point that 1t woula
have good recovery power. Pastures
grazed close come back very slowly and
the maximum yields are not secured.
Immediately after turning the herd
out of the one lot the pasture should
be narrowed to stir up the surface soil

OF Interest To Farmers

and scatter droppings left over the
pasture and in this way assist mater
tally in the aeration and fertilization
of the soil. If the soil is rather run
down the use of nitrogen at the rate
of 200 to 300 pounds of ammonium
sulphate per acre will probably give
returns. If clovers do not seem to es-
tablish themselves well, then the adj
ditional application Of 500 pounds OF
superphosphate might also be worth
while.
There is no question but what land
in good pasture will return at least
some form Of net return and why not
consider the pasture rather than some
of the cash crops where there might
be great possibility of loss.

No Quick Fortune

CONSTRUCTIVE LEGISLATION

In extending aid by lending some Of its funds
to railroads, insurance companies and banks in
need Of help, the recently created Reconstruction
Finance Corporation is serving greater number
of people, both great and small, than through
probably any other channels.
The connections of these businesses ramify
throughout the country, reaching directly in
directly every individual. The railroads through
their thousands of stockholders bond holders,
shippers and employees and those dependent on
them the insurance companies through their mil
lions of policy holders and the banks through
their equal number of stockholders, depostors
and those needing temporary financing. All have
benefited. Our business affairs today are so COM
plicated and interrelated that the failure of one
concern carries down with it number of others.
The creation of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation master piece Of legislation. It
may may not bring about better times but it
has undoubtedly prevented them from being a
lot worse.

learns to read the notes and gradually
develops skill in singing new song
from page of music just as he would
read a new story in his reader. All OF
this training is accomplished through
songs and not through formal drill
exercises as in days of old.
Part singing is the final step. In
this connection the child is trained to
listen to the other part while singing
his own in order to secure blending
and harmony of parts. For those who
have special talent or who are inter-
ested in singing for the entertainment
of others as well as for the joy of sing
ing, many schools have special choruses
and glee clubs which do more finished
work than is attempted in the regular
classes.
Listening lessons, or lessons in music
appreciation as they are some times
called, go hand in hand with the child's
own expression and form a part of his
musical experience during his grade
and Junior high school life. BY means
OF the radio and photograph he is
given the opportunity to hear some OF
the worlds best music In these classes
he learns the story or theme of the
composition and is taught to follow the
music understandingly-to hear the
thunder, to recognize the clatter of
the horses hoofs or pick out the rip
pling of the brook-in short, to see
in imagination the story that the mu-
sic tells.
School orchestras and bands, which
formerly were found only in the larg-
er high schools, are now quite common
even in the smaller grade schools.
Membership in these is elective by the
student. Group instruction in instru-
mental music is proving very effective.
Children with little previous training
are taught in very short time to play
together in band or orchestra. This
training not only adds to the child's
pleasure but develops poise and self
confidence in public appearance that is
valuable in any walk of life

ARMY AND IRISH

Wet Weather Is Figured as

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-Wet

All the 1920 seats were sold for
more than $256,00O, and thousands
of applicants turned away, bringing
rich harvest to ticket spectators,
who charged tardy generals and
colonies from 81 to $11 for $40
seats. All the 1900 cadets from
West Point and an unusually large
number of notables were to attend.
Army is virtually at fun strength,
while Notre Dame may or may not
be handicapped by illness and in

soldier squad, Dick King. star end,
and Ed Herb, back. Both are re-
covering from old injuries.
