on the farm, the man with the tele-
phone supplements the man a0ith the
hoe.
Improved farming methods with the
greater use of machinery and modern
appliances have been clearly brought
out by the recent census. Cooperative
marketing, according to r. l.. Tom
blen in the Bell Telephone Quarterly,
Is on the increase, with the selling
of farm products through the CO.
operative system, exceeding the pur-
chasing Of farm supplies by similar
practice. According to the recent
census, farm products of nearly $780,
100000 were sold by cooperative meth
DDS, whereas purchase Of farm sup
plies through cooperative channels
amounted to only $125.OOO,OOO.
Direct evidence shows that there
has been material betterment in
living conditions on farms, resulting
from more widespread adoption Of
modern mechanical conveniences. In
an exhaustive study Of the recent
changes in agriculture, Mr.. Tomblen
finds that substantial progress in the
use Of machinery has been made in
all sections of the country in the last
decade. Not of the least Importance,
he says, Is the use of the telephone
for social purposes in rural areas,
while the farmers marketing prob.
lens require efficient service for COM
munication, as well as for transpor-
tation.
With the increase of standardized
grades for agricultural products and
with the speeding up of the distribu-
tion processes, the greater Importance
Of the telephone for toll as well as
for local usage in connection with
efficient marketing of farm products
will become more and more apparent,
Mr.. Tomblen states. Constant CO.
operation between the telephone in
dustry and the farmer in working
progressively toward further extern
sion Of telephone service on farms is
essential to meet adequately the pecu-
liar requirements of the farm market.

"TAKE n EASY"

Here is timely tip from the Key
stone Automobile Club of Maryland
for the motorist who finds difficulty
in starting his car after parking in
the snow: Take it easy Don't
step hard on the accelerator. The
slower your engine speed the more
chance your tires have to take q
grip. Spinning the wheels only in
creases the difficulty, because the
tires make smooth grooves in the
snow. with consequent loss Of tao
ton.

Canned Foods In

Antarctic. They say that time
hangs pretty heavily on their
hands occasionally, but there is
one man in the expedition about
whose activities one can make a
pretty fair guess. That man is
George Tenant, the cook of the
expedition, who was also the cook
at the time Of Byrd's last trip
OF course the expeditions take
along tons of all sorts Of food sup
plies, but their main reliance on
he last trip, was on canned foods.
They took along on that occasion
two hundred and sixty cases of
canned vegetables, two hundred
and twenty-f0ur cases of canned
fruit and many other miscel-
laneous canned foods supplies.
Turkeys, for instance. brought
frozen from home were served on
Thanksgiving and Christmas with
canned cranberries, and canned
chicken a la king, was a great
delicacy which he frequently
served on toast for breakfast.
Antarctic Ice Cream
But when the men called for ice
cream. that was Tenants oppor-
tunity to distinguish himself. He
had brought along five hundred

This is. remarkable in view of wide spread fears entertained six years ago that South American coun- tries might divide into two armed camps. s
 The Chaco difficulties also have served to convince most diplomats that effective peace efforts must be made through a world rather than strictly regional organization.
 Pan-American peace efforts have uniformly failed, and the United States itself in recent years found it desirable to subscribe to the proposed peace program of the League of Nations, although not conseding to become involved politically with the league advis- ory committee

 From six years of diplomatists' disillusionment has stood out the fact that, when nations once enter into active combat. the machinery of peace is under great handicap.
