Radiant Promise Made to Farmers. Washington, Jan. 1.?The farmer can enter the new year "in a spirit of hopefulness and good cheer," Secretary of Agriculture Wallace stated today in a new year's message to farmers. "I see . nothing which indicates boom times for the farmers in the near future," he continued, "but there does seem to be promise of better times both for the farmer and for those \^hose happiness is largely dependent upon mm." While unwilling to make "^ny hard and fast prophecies," the secretary said that there are signs which indicate "that the coming year should be a better one for the farmer and for those who deal with him than was 1921." Among the hopeful signs enumerated by the secretary were the improvement in credit conditions through regular channels and by special agencies created to meet the farmers' needs, bringing a lowering of interest rates; reductions already made in freight rates on farm products, reduction in the cost in 1922 of producing farm crops; and a probable increase in the price of grain following what seems likely to be a decrease in acreage planted to such crops. "The paralyzing effect of the sudden drop in prices last year is wearing off," the secretary declared, "and farmers will enter the new year more hopefully, believing that the worst is over. "Farmers are coming to see more clearly that Jhe task of putting farm ing on a sound business basis is really up to them and that through organization they can reduce marketing costs," the statement continued. "In this they will have increasing helD from the department of agri culture and the various agricultural colleges which now see better than before that they must give the farmer the same sort of help in the marketing of his crops that they have been giving him in the production. With prices of farm products falling and thte future very uncertain, even those farmers who have money * 1 ? ? ??? r? loMra num. lciiQ oy?ana mtic aic a ber of such?have been restricting their buying to what they had to have. - Now with the -growing belief that prices have hit the bottom, buying will he resumed and should increase in volume, and manufacturers and retailers who make or sell things that farmers need or want should have better business this coming J cai Error in Judgment. Her plan for assuring the support of the women voters to him moved the statesman to admiration. "Whatever steps you *afce will carry weight, I'm sure. e said cordi ally.

NEW YEAR'S EGGS. j The Persians still exchange presents of eggs at New Year's just as we do at Easter. But the rest of us now do our giving of presents at Christmas parties, though we may give to each other on January 1. In Scotland and England everybody calls on everybody else New Year's day, and drinks punch. Here in America calling has gone out of style, but if we do nothing more, we at least shout "Happy New Year" to everybody we meet on New Year's morning. When we shout that, we mean good luck to them for all the new year through. NEVER AGAIN Ostrich ? New-fangled breakfast food, eh? Well I swore off from that stuff the first of last year! PUMPKIN PIE.
