There always seems to be
a report of some sort being
issued from our capitol, and
the recent one from Wash
ington deals with the subject
of the nations population.
The survey and predictions
come to us from the COM
mittee on population prob
lens, with many facts and
figures to prove their point.
The sum and substance lies
in the fact that instead of
this nation going on indefi-
nitely with an ever-growing
population, she will reach a
total of about 1853, 10000
people by 1888, and from
that year on she will de-
crease in number. The first
census, taken in the u. s.
was in 1890, and there were
listed 3,920,214 inhabitants.
AS we increase the popula-
ton the experts estimate
that between 1915 and 1875
the number of persons 20-44
years old would increase only
six per cent. whereas the
number 1854 years old
would increase SO per cent.

We have always felt closer
TO God in nature and we
have always realized that the
rural dweller is especially
religious, maybe due to his
close contact with nature.
There is a book recently
written by DIR. Malcolm
Dana, entitled Christ Of the
Countryside, which brings
us a much better realization
of the man who lives on the
land and tills the soil, and
his relationship to religion.
This daily association with
the natural things would tend
to make a closer contact in
religious thought. AS we all
know, the Bible story starts
with a scene in a garden and

Our congress and the legislatures
of states are elected by popular
vote of the citizens. They are the
fellows who create policy, not of.

There might be some interest in
an examination Of the states con-

abandoned, marketing agreement.
They are: Alabama, Arkansas, Cal

Maryland, Mississippi, North Caro-

Texas and Virginia. The AAA an

producers voting on the adoption of
the agreement. My information is
that this number is pitifully small
proportion Of potato growers, even
the growers of "early" and enter
mediate" potatoes as distinguished
from fall potatoes. Yet, there was
not a sufficient number of these to
warrant the AAA in making the pro-
gram operative. What happened to
the other growers? Well, I can make
only one guess, namely, they just
did not have any interest in IL.
