are doing it wherever the climate
permits.
A nationwide survey conducted
by the Nudist Magazine, shows
that American nudists have in
creased from 2,1OO to 10000 dur
ing the last 10 months. At that
rate it will only take another year
or so before we will all accept the
idea we now look upon as being
crazy-all throw our clothes to the
four winds and walk around the
way we were born.
Of course, this nudist idea is
not going to be accepted by every
body overnight, but we have no
right to say that it will never be
generally accepted, and that it
probably would be we'll if it was.
The nudists of today are not a
bunch of rowdies, they are in
tellects who have thrown all ira
ditions overheard, they are expos
ing their bare body to the sun
and wind because it is most health
full and most natural. 1t is not
done for immoral purposes, and it
is safe to say if the idea was gen.
orally accepted, that it would not
increase immortality, chances are
it would work the other way.
At the present time we would
all have a fit if anybody walked
up our Main street without any
clothes on. But were we not all
shocked Just few years ago when
our daughters, wives, and grand
mothers all at once started to ex-
pose themselves to above the
knees. Some even had the nerve
to pull off the stockings and show
us the bare skin. At that time
this was going too far, and those
who did it were expelled from our
schools.
Today we have accepted the
bare legs ard knees. we don't think
any more about it. To the gen.
Grafton growing up it is perfectly
natural, there is nothing immoral
about it. The same thing can be
said about the bathing suit. And
some day nudism might be accept
ed the same way, who can tell.
What should work in the move
ment's favor is the fact that many
of US are now wearing out oul
last rags, with no prospect of evel
being able to replace them.

PROCESSING TAX ON
CORN Is SET FOR
28 CENTS A BUSHEg

Secretary Wallace, with the APP

sued regulations determining the
initial rate of the processing tax
on field corn to be at the rate OIL
% cents per bushel of Sc pounds,
effective November 5, 1893, the
beginning of the first marketing
year.
The rate of % certs per bushel
equals the difference between the
current average farm price for
field corn and the so-called fair
exchange value of field corn.
The Agricultural Adjustment
Act exempts from the processing
tax, corn processed by or for a
farmer for consumption by his own

500, 900, 900 PAID
COTTON GROWERS"

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. %.
The Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration announced last week
that s90,000,000 has already been
paid to "cotton growers" for hav-
ing plowed under cottor. this year.
The report did not specify just
what is meant by cotton grow
ers." Just how much of the money
got into the hands of the small
and middle cotton farmers, most
of whom are tenants and troopers
is not stated, but it is probably
very little. The regular policy of
the federal government indicates
that most Of the ninety million
dollars undoubtedly went into the
hards of the big landowners and
those holding mortgages and other
bets against the small farmers.
