5000 CROSSINGS SAFER

Since the summer of 1888 a total
of 3.125 grade crossings have been
constructed or are scheduled for i'm
mediate construction with Federal
funds administered by the Bureau OF
Public Roads. In addition standard
protection signals have been or will
be installed at 1872 crossings.
This combined elimination and
protection program totals 4,997 rail-
road crossings and does not include
an additional number from which
travel has been removed by relocat-
ing highways. Construction costs, in
large measure, have been paid with
Federal funds, but the States and
railroads have provided the rights
of-way and paid other incidental
costs.
Bureau traffic experts say these i'm
provements afford daily protection
from the hazards of crossings to sew
eral millions of people.

STATE POLICE DEPARTMENT

Abolition of the existing State po-
lice department and the creation OF
an entirely new force was advanced
by a group of Legislators at Annapo-
lis as the only cure for the strife and
dissension with which the force is at
iicted.
Sentiment for action of this nature
was found both in the Senate and the
House. 1t developed rapidly in the
wake Of Enoch B. Garey's testimony
before an investigating committee OF
the upper branch that he was rail-
roaded out of the superintendency OF
the department for his refusal to play
politics with the force for Governor
Nice.
Garey's charges brought from the
Governor what amounted to a blan-
ket denial that he wanted to dictate
promotions in the department; that
q group Of the Governors advisors,
with his knowledge, attempted to
''get" the former superintendent, ana
that the Governor ordered him to en-
bark on the Inflated Tangier Island
expedition.

FTNGERPRINTING URGED AS AID
TO LIQUOR CLEANUP

Compulsory finger-printing of all
persons engaged in the sale of alco-
holic beverages "as means Of clean
ing up the liquor trade" is urged by
Miss Ethel Huber of Los Angelo,
member of the National Temperance
Council, in a communication which is
today on the desk of every state IL
quor control board in the United
States for consideration.
More than 1900 men and women
with criminal records have recently
sought liquor licenses in Southern
California" declared Miss Huber in
her letter to liquor control bodies.
These startling figures have just
come to light. following the enforce
ment of compulsory finger-printing
of all liquor license applicants in the
Southern California area. Included
on the list were the following: muir
der, IL; burglary, At; counterfeiting,
g. arson, IL; drunken driving, So;
and many other criminal offenders.
"A number of wanted criminals
were apprehended and many persons
with long police records, including
several murderers, were prevented
from selling liquor as direct result
of the fingerprinting experiment,
Mice uuhlar daoIared
1t is urged that similar regulations
be put into effect Immediately in
every state where alcoholic beverages
are sold las means of eliminating a
large part of the criminal element
now in the ranks of the liquor trade. -
Such a regulation would, to som
extent, assure the drinker who is
prone to get 'chummy' with the man
across the bar that he is not fratern-
izing with an ex-bandit, counter
feiter, or burglar" Miss Huber
said. at would seem to me that re-
tailers and wholesalers of beer, wines
and liquor, who wish to put their
business on more respectable basis
would, themselves, initiate cam
paign for compulsory finger-printing
in order to rid the trade of undesir-
ables."

LEWIS A TROUBLE MAKER

When John L. Lewis turned "reb-
ell" and split the American Fedora
ton of Labor wide open last Summer
the best brains in official life in
Washington-and others trained t.
understand the significance of such
matters, began to lose faith in sucn
a leader, who appeared so rockies
and disregardful of the rights and in
terests of working men.
In his radio address at New Year,
Lewis launched bitter harangu
against leaders in our national in
dustries. More recently he turned
to heap further abuses upon the Fed
Grafton, because that sane organiza-
ton spoke out sanely against the
General Motos strike. His bitterness
towards the economic royalists" in
cludes a charge that they have their
fangs in labor"
Organizations and groups Of citi-
zens and political opponents have al
ways exercised their right to disagree
with the Administration and to state
their positions in the good old-fash-
Toned American way. But there has
been exactly one man who has at
tempted to bulldoze the President.
The Administration asked labor to
help it" in the elections, Lewis said,
and labor helped the President to
repel the economic royalists :.
and labor expects the Administration
to support the auto workers in every
legal way in their fight This Is
no time for neutrality, no time for
pussyfooting.
President Roosevelt handed Lewis
a return wallop by quietly observing:
I'm the interest of peace there come
moments when statements, conserva-
lion and headlines are not in order,
he told the newspaper correspondents
and assented to being quoted when
he voiced this rebuke.
"The President of the United
States is the Chief Executive of the
Government and the Government Is
supposed to be for all the people, "
wrote the editor Of the Washington
Star in commenting on Lewis blus-
tering Misunderstanding that the
Administration had received "a
threat that it must come to
heel-or else!"
The editor of the Washington Post
says that Lewis apparently assumes
hat the voting support of ORGANIZED
labor is a negotiable commodity that
should be paid for even If the recip~
lent of it's favor is the head of the
State" 1t says Lewis lodges the
issue" and seeks 'smoke-screen de-
ma@ds for Presidential intervention
The third great newspaper organi'
zation of the Capital, the Herald and
lines, is equally emphatic in coli
lemn:ng the attempts to put the
President on the spot.

EMERGENCY CROP LOANS
AVAILABLE

The emergency crop and feed loans
which Congress authorized for 1897
are now available, according to in
formation received from Washington
by S. M. Thomson, Regional Manager
of the Baltimore Office of the Elmer
gency Crop and Feed Loan Section.
The opening date for the emer-
gency loans to farmers is earlier by
several weeks than in previous years
and Mr.. Thomson said the loan funds
will be disbursed in plenty of time
for early spring crops.
These loans will be made only tt
farmers who have no other source CT
credit. Farmers who can qualify for
loans from Production Credit Assoei-
ations will also be held ineligible.
Four hundred dollars is the maxi
mum loan this year to any one farm
er, but it is pointed out that in eacn
case loan will be made only in tn
amount actually necessary to grow
crops or maintain livestock until pas
turage or forage crops are available
The interest rate this year is foul
per cent per annum.
The emergency crop and feed loans
will be made as in former years by
field representatives assisted by loca
crop loan committees in the various
counties of this district, under the
supervision of the regional office IL

HANDWRITING ON THE WALL

Unless labor unions and employers
exercise self restraint over their re-
spective powers and recognize tn;
rights of the public, the government
will step in and take control, Dr
Robert l.. Sutherland of Buckneil
University, declared recently when
speaking on the long drawn out Pa
cific Coast ship strike and the auto
mobile strike in the East.
DR.. Sutherland said it was "only a
matter of time until any group using
power without responsibility will be
checked" and pointed out that as
general rule this country never curb
ed power until it was abused.
When any group of leaders, no
matter who, deliberately plan to win
their point at all costs, regardless OF
suffering of workmen or the public
it is time to break their grip-that is
what government is for, to protect all
the people
II the day arrives when our gov
eminent can be controlled by either
labor or Industrial dictators, to the
detriment of the people, fascism OF
communism will have swallowed de-
mocracy, Individual rights will be
wiped out and labor will become a
form Of slavery.

$3.50, 100000 in the preceding

The increase can be partly account
I'd for by rise in property values.

NEUTRALITY, Law

final enactment, despite rumors OF
divergences which always disappear
upon analysis.
Thus, the House Foreign Affairs
Committee made favorable report its
version of the 1887 bill, q version
hailed on the surface as widely diff
ferent from the Senate bill, but one
which in essence is very similar. Both
Senate and House propose to enact
their versions separately and within a
reasonably short time. Conference
between both houses will Their be cal

The prospect therefore is that

so much congressional and national
attention will either be forgotten
until stress of an actual war brings

Business Week has made study
Of advertising expenditures during
1895, finds that they were we'll ahead
Of preceding years. And it fore
casts that 1897 will be good year
for publications so far as advertising
is concerned-partly because OF the
undistributed earnings tax. Reason
for that Is that businesses would
rather spend money for space than
for taxes-in effect, the tax creates
an advertising discount" ranging up
to 80 per cent.
During the last half of 1886, the
increase in advertising spending over
the same period in 1885 was substan-
TALLY greater than the percentage i'm
provement in business generally. Big
gain in advertising lineage was made
by magazines-25.31 per cent. News
papers went ahead 1879 per cent.
And chain radio made the greatest
gain of all-31.99 per cent.

rs FERTILIZER ExPENsIvEq


er than those of other commodities;
fertilizer has been improving in quail
ity; it's use results in $50 per cent
annual profit ON the investment; aEt
the purchase takes but a very small
part of the farmers income. These
are conclusions reached in an exam
nation of fertilizer prices which APP
pears in the January-F'ebruary issue
of THE FERTILIZER REVIEW,
published by The Natiinal Fertilizer
Association.
The cost of fertilizer Is measured
by three yardsticks-its price in rela
zion to other commodities, it's value
to the former, and his ability to pay
for it. The price of commodity
stated in dollars and cents fails to in
dictate if it is cheap or expensive. In
order to determine the relative ex-
pensiveness of fertilizer it should be
examined in comparison with these
related factors.
According to price studies made by
the United States Department of Ag
riculture, the farmers pre-war dollar
IS worth today only 70 cents, as the
commodities he buys are now selling
on the average at prices 81 per cert
per cent higher than in the pre-war
period. In contrast to this, when
The farmer buys fertilizer his pre-
war dollar is worth $1.04. OF the
II commodities or groups of COM
modities bought by farmers for which
he Department complies price fig
ures, only one is now selling below
he 191O-1914 level, and that one is
fertilizer.
From March, 1893, when prices
we're at their low point, until now,
prices received by farmers for their
products have increased 129 per cent
During this same period prices paid
oy them for all commodities bought
nav gone up 81 per cent, but fertiliz-
ar has risen only per cent. Anoth-
er study from a governmental source
hows that since 1880 the ratio OF
he price of fertilizer to all commod-
lty prices has been falling.
Not only has fertilizer been getting
cheaper in relation to other commod-
tiles but it's value has also been in
3reasing and it's quality improving.
The average ton of complete fertilizer
.oday is not the same commodity as
vas the average ton SO years ago or
10 years ago. In 1920, mixed ferti-
izer used in the United States con-
aimed on the average 27S pounds OF
plant food in each ton. At the pres
ant time the average content is about
565 pounds, an increase of 81 per
cent. In addition to this increase in
plant food content the mechanical
condition has been improved, facili-
ating application and increasing eff
4ciency.
Cost of fertilizer is not big item
of expense to the farmer when COM
pared with his income or with othe"
expenditures. In 1884 fertilizer
1csts represented only 206 per GEN.
# gross farm income and 4.93 per
lent of income realized from crops
alone. Expenditures for fertilizer
we're we'll less than half of the ex-
1enditures for wages of hired help,
Jr interest, or taxes, or feed. or the
ost of operating automobiles, trucks
Ind tractors, or expenditures for
arm implements.

Poultry Pointers

Sudden changes in feeding and man.
agement often cause drop in produc-
tion. and may result in a false mott of
the flock.
Drinking water is almost as import
ant as feed In poultry raising. Clean
water fountains with an abundant
fresh water supply of water should be
kept before the flock at all times. In
the northern part of the United States
precautions must be taken to prevent
fountains freezing.
Usual symptoms of colds In the flock
are shifting, diarrhoea, watery and
swollen eyes, and stuck eyelids. Colds
may be brought on by sudden changes
in temperature. overcrOwded quarters,
damp litter, or infection from older
birds. To prevent outbreaks of colds
the temperature must be kept uniform.
Chicks should be started to roost early
and the house should be kept thor
oughly clean. A solution made of one
fourth pint Purina cre-so-fec In one
gallon of water is an effective cleans
ing agent to keep down infection.
If moldy litter is put into the laying
house, pullets breathe the mold spores
into their lungs. This may cause
trouble. If birds get touch of pneu.
monia from moldy litter. the best
treatment is good flush with epson
salts mixed in wet mash. Be sure
that the birds eat all of the mash.
Worms take a tremendous toll from
poultry profits. Unthrifty birds cut
down the flock average. At the first
indication that birds may be infested
with worms set to work to eradicate
the pests before they have a chance to
infect the whole flock. Use a Purina
tetsule for round worms If birds are
dosed in the afternoon worms will be
on the dropping boards by morning.
