knew how to fashion iron before this
art was ever learned in Europa. Like
wise the breeding and cattle and agri-

discoveries shows skill in metal work
which was in the form of an ancient

In Memoriam

In loving memory of my husband,
Herman A. Williams, who departed
this life two years ago, April 2, 1881.
Gone is the face l loved so dear,
Silent is the voice loved to hear.
Too far away for sight or speech,
But not too far for thought to reach,
Sweet to remember one who was once
here,
And who though absent just as dear,
Though you are gone, dear Herman,
Your memory will never grow old.
For to me it will be forever
A treasure of purest gold.
Sadly missed.

WALLACE SIGNS MILK CODE
FOR PHILADELPHIA TER
RITORY

Agriculture's MIRA blue eagle
spread it's wings over the Philadel-
phia Milk Shed last week when Sec
rotary Wallace signed the Code for
the milk industry known as the Phil
adelphia Milk Marketing Agree
ment, of the Agricultural Adjust
ment Act
One of the provisions in this
Agreement makes effective Friday
morning. August 25th, Il minimum
price to the consumer throughout
the territory specified in the agree
ment of lie per quart and &c per
pint. At the same time, the price
to all farmers is increased .33c per
hundred pounds of milk.
Moved by the same patriotic en-
thusiasm which has made store
keepers and manufacturers enlist
under the MIRA, milk distributors
have signed by scores the milk
marketing agreement, indicating
their voluntary intention of cooper
ating with the National Govern
ment's recovery program
Licenses will be issued all milk
distributors in order that dealers
complying in full with the price
schedule and fair practices set forth
in the agreement will not be penal
lied by offenders.
One of the immediate benefits of
| the marketing agreement is the
| elimination of the price cutting
| which has been so demoraizing a
factor for both producers and dis
tributors. One price to consumers
will prevail throughout the Phila-
delphia Milk Shed, with the excep-
zion Of certain seashore points.
Furthermore, under This agree
| nent, unbiased Government special
| ,sts are to have access 10 farmers
production records and distributors
| accounts in determining basics
spread etc.. as marketing conditions
| warrant.
The territory for the Philadelphia
Milk Marketing Agreement extends
from Johnstown to Easton, Pa, and
includes entire southeastern state Of
Pennsylvania; southern half of New
Jersey, entire state of Delaware. the
eastern shore of Maryland and

SURVEY SHOWS SIGNS OF
PROGRESS

Pointing out that there were l.
10000 more persons employed at
the end of July than in March and
that incomes of wage and salaried
workers totaled $2S7, 100000 more
in July than in the former month,
the American Federation oil Labor
announced that "as September opens
we can already see clear signs Of real
progress"
The Federation estimated that the
combined purchasing power Of in
dustrial workers and farmers has
been increased $5,444, 100000 on an
annual basis.
This statement was contained in
the federation's Monthly Survey OF
Business, which is regarded as one
of the best reports available on en-
ployment and purchasing power fig
ures. 1t is based not only on the
official Government statistics but
also on reports from every trade
union in the country.
The survey made no attempt to
estimate how many workers return
ed to jobs in August. There are no
accurate figures for last month and
probably will not be for another
month. At the National Recovery
Administration, it is estimated, how
ever, that between 100000 and l.
100000 persons obtained employ
ment last month.
If this is correct, then roughly 81
100000 of the nations unemployed
have found work since President
Roosevelt assumed Office. This re-
suit indicates that Gen. Hugh S.
johnson, Recovery Administrator,
was too optimistic when the Blue
Eagle blanket campaign was launch
ed and he talked about reducing by
one half the unemployed total by
Labor Day.

RURAL SCHOOLS TOLD TO FOL.
LOW CITY UNITS

Rural schools should follow the
lead of the city schools, which were
forced some decades ago to consoli-
date into economic efficient units so
that the best educational detectives
could be achieved, DR.. w H. Gaum-
nitz, senior specialist in rural school
problems, Office of education, Wash
ington, d. c., says.
II conditions are bad, they figure
they are doing the best they can.
If the states schools are lot as good
as they should be or are not receiv-
ing the relative emphasis that they
should in comparison with other
state services, the school men of the
state largely are to blame. The
county superintendent is the logical
leader for the rural area"
The work of the rural school is as

wheat crop pre-war purchasing power.
If the plan is as effective as its spon-
sors hope it will be. the reduction In
supply may influence wheat prices so
that the entire wheat crop will have
pre-war purchasing power.
"If the adjustment program sue
ceeds. its launching probably will mark
the end of an era of extreme Individual
ism in agriculture in the United
States" says Mr.. Farrell.
Recent fundamental changes led
Secretary Wallace to say. What we
really have to do is to change the
whole psychology of the people of the
United States This is large order.
1t involves the whole program OF farm
adjustment as well as the larger ma
tional economic program. of which
farm adjustment is part. If the
people decline to participate in the
program to the extent necessary to
give the experiment a fair trial, we
shall never know whether farm ad-
justment as now proposed would have
succeeded or not Il, it had been given
a fair trial."
