long time to tell you about Jean M.
Craik of Andover, Mass: who writes
in that she is more than little
tired of being bargained out of a
penny or into an extra pound by
those stores which advertise two
pounds for II cents" If you buy one
pound, she says, you lose half cent.
If you buy two pounds, you have
too much.
1.-The coin that ought to be mint
ed now she said, lis a half-cent
piece. Then we wouldn't be swim
died out of whole pennies by these
ubiquitous stores that price every
thing SO that if one doesn't buy
two pounds or two dozen he al
ways has to give them an extra
half cent"
She comedies it seems sort of
hopeless, because if you want to
buy a 11a-cent stamp it. costs two
cents, and that puts the govern
ment in the business.

Farmers Likely To
Flourish

Agricultural products are not war
goods and the farmers are legiti-
mately entitled to the benefits of
higher prices for their goods. Just
where the war. and prices. will go,
nobody knows. But in the last Eu-
TOpean war our farmers got rich
they sold their wheat for 50 a bushel.
Unfortunately. the farmers in many
States used their money to boom the
prices of land and in the great Mis-
sissippi Valley acreage prices jump
ed several hundred per cent, and al
most out of sight. Let us hope that
such a mistake will not occur again
Ito spoil farm relief" resulting
from legitimate prices in foreign
markets.
The Agricultural Department
sputtered some in the first few days
of war and 1t issued a statement ad-
vising farmers not to increase their
rate of production for the coming
months. But by looking facts
straight-in-the-eye even an agricul-
tural theorist should realize that we
are facing war conditions. and that
political theories of recent years are
no longer very convincing.
The Government itself is counting
up its profits since a few days after
the war began and it was found that
there was a boom in agricultural
products which ought to be sufficient
to enable farmers to wipe out ap-
proximately 119 million dollars that
had been advanced by the Govern
ment to farmers on surplus crops.
