An f{<-f<irc yv\i turn down our appeal to bt.f help c-sK.'.nac a cannery and a potato sen i v i;.g house here, suppose you d too ('ITim figuring" on your own ae- piv count! let us suppose that lf-0 farm- the . ihould sign up to raise one .iei\ ?Ut t f '. matoes. Let the cost rcmahi as to high as we estimated?$80. If the j>cc fanner got $15 a ton and raised 1." ,)a^ ter.s (which is only a fair yield? h-- the would t eceivo $225 less $80. which |gr( .gusli 81 15 proft ? net profit. If each A farmer of the 150 measured up to v, this standard, there would be a total p]<; net p?or.t ?>f $21,750. That's more than tii0 any 150 farmers in Union County ever made fr <rn 150 acres of cotton. Sap- ]un pose the canning iiulstry should take firm hold upon Union County. Sun- ]jU| pose 3,000 farmers each planted one acre to tomatoes or some other j rod- cr;, uct to be canned. At this estimate, the ]1(M neat net sum of $435,000 ies!uts. You air .-ay our estimate of profit is too high. ,,f Mr. Drowning says our estimate of cost of production is twice tco high * ihcn, suppose wo cut the est imated j net profit half in two? That would I give us $217,500. Throe thousand! acres netting u profit of $217,500. Ten; years from today Union County wi.l he giving not 3.000 acres, hut 0.000 in this very way if we can ever make 1 a successful start. And this would nor i interfere with growing cotton. Surely you can spare one, twv, three acres j from the cotton field! If you do, you are. choosing the way to wealth, real, wealth, and you still have the pr'.viI ^ lege of raising cotton to give awav J at prices below the eost of produc- j ~ tion. Tn fact, you are choosing the ' > very best way to raise more cotton per acre, at lower cost, for higher prices. Looks that way to us, anyway, and we have the "nerve" to say ( what we think. That's a newspaper's! j right: it is also its duty. ( OH! YOU DEMOCRATS. ,, .Ma It is thought that James M. Coy, . ... . . 1 uenuv ratio camlulat.; for the presi-i , i t doncy, stands squarely out for the ^ league of naVons' covenant, one of the prime platform issues in the last caiu* ^ puign, a campaign which resulted in ; ; swooping defeat for the Democrats. Governor (<>x would make the para- ( mount issuu the league of nations in ;u, the in \t campaign. Senator Underwood, Democrat, and a member of the C Harding Arms' (.imitation conference u.< at Washington just about to close, advocates holding the league question ' in the background and of finding the ,H *.uliu ruble points <>f attack offered un- ,uc d-'r the Republican administration Critics of Governor Cox assert that he * is pluming himself for the next nomination. All of which may !>e true. Rut wo have never believed the Demig ocrats lost the election on account of rr adherence to the league of nations. That played a part, hut the trick was , turned airaiiist the Democrats bec<tu?e ( . upon them was heaped the blame f.?r (>< the misdeeds of the Republicans, deiiherately planned, a systematic cam- < paign of fraud and false charges on h,. the one hand and the most nsanine j, ? blundering on the part of the Democrats themselves. The utter suivcn- 1 tier to socialistic tendencies, the ut- Wi tcr d; regard for the pluin matters of sensible business, the unwarranted in- 11 terference with the financial system ll' t t the country ? these are some of Unreal causes for the victory that wen', to the Republicans. The Republicans U( ' having won by fraud in large degree, *1''n nnd havirur been aided Lv the atuntl - , - (! policies inaugurated by the DemoIf :t crat?. arc today in a pretty dilemma. ov r By repudiating the league of nations, j.nd thus stultifying themselves, they r, s? ek to regain the;r footing througn jj( the arms limitation idea?an idt; that, to all interests and purposes, is q the ol'l league with a new dress. n, Sonic people cannot conceive tiiat y(.w, the leaders of a political party to which they belong can fall into error,, O do wropg. This is true of both lie- deni publican and Democrat. Rut, in our humble judgment the Democrats in O their wasteful extravagances, helped beg: _4* bring ou then* own undoing. Th .hod of building caiitt iments is 1 o '.r. point". To pay a premium o: * cort of production?pay a ccrtai. cent over cost, was the most out coils piece of business. It dou .1. quadrupled co.d. It di'turb.'i monetary system of the country lisrupted labor and I'-ilcd the wiiol. ntry with an idea that mono; ild never again be scarce. And. t. the whole piece of monu rital folly perpetrated by the I) nv sits, came the sudden, drastic, de ion process, a process right ii nciplo, but wrong when forced i drastic a manner. Here is how : iked with us, the people of Uniui inty. First came from Washing the appe al to the farmers?plant ntl The world is starving!

Ravaged by War Astrakhan, Russia, Jan. 31.?Once 3perous but now ravaged by revoon, the situation of this city relds the visitor of the condition of iv Orleans after the Civil War. It trying to regain its former prosity but the process is slow. Even position Astrakhan resmbles New ' eans in some ways. The city is ?hed on an island on a point where Volga river divides into many nller streams forming a delta that ends 60 miles to the Caspian sea. The commerce of Astrakhan was e comparable with that of St. lis, Memphis, or of New Orleans, was rich in furs, in fish, in caviar 1 busy handling freight which traved the Volga. There was once d for every mouth and clothes for ry back, work aplenty for every n. Today are seen the wrecks wrought combat, between the imperial and olutionary forces, but no sympathy expressed with Communism. 'We re had enough," said one of the rkrnen who, together *with thousis of his fellows and for 18 days t after the Petrograd and Moscow ings in 1917, took to arms and be ged the Cossack troops and the althy people of the city, gatherc in Kremlin walls, in soldier barracks, i other points at the heart of the .iness district. The immediate result of these 18 ,*s of carnage was the destruction the Duma buildings, the Governor's ljse, the great bazaar, and several cks of stores filled with drygoods J Persian and Turkestan carpets is and other fineries. The ultimate result is indicated by s bare, fire-burned walls today nding gaunt and cheerless, with work on the river and no food ir. ! homes for there workmen.

[n the provincial hospital where 300 tients lay there was practically no xth for famine refugees nor quinine fever sufferers. Dr. Zakatowsky. ? woman surgeon in charge, said aerican relief was promised but so it had not come. The only public gathering places ?ned seemed to be the moving pic e theater which was crowded with jng people and soldiers of the denny cavalry watvching an uttervillanous Italan tragedy. <Bb cmfwyp cmfwyp cmfwyp m m cialist Prerr:er Gives B'g Dinner * \ .Stockholm; It. 31.?Hjalmar anting, the Socialist Premier of reden, recently gave at his own cost linner to 300 unemployed men and men of Stockholm. The Premier i Mrs. Branting acted as host and stess, while the guests were waited 5n by society women of the capital, ong them, Mrs. George Branting, s wife of the Premier's son. Later in the evening, the guests re given hot baths and provided .h lodgings in the municipal lodging jscs of Stockholm, rhis is believed to be the first time it the premier of a European state ?' personally 'entertained his desti c consistutents. When his guests :i eaten their fill. Premier Branting Iressed them on the economic conions in Sweden. I*he Premier began by informing >m that neither this dinner nor any ser private or public aid extended men and women without work was any sense charity, but simply what s rightfully due them from those 0 were fortunate enough to be able hc'p. He said it w?s not the'r lit that they were without means livelihood, but the fault of warped iditions throughout Europe. Mr. Branting warned hi i guests it the slow-moving efforts of the 1 cstabl'shed government system to prove social conditions was infiniy preferable to the breaking up of > old system. The world has seen ere *uch a course led. But social idari y, ho continued, demanded m evei y person that he help as far he poss'b'y could in relieving the t.r?ss of the ru^re unfortunate. 'I hope." the Premier continued, nt others will follow this example 1 that you will s^e thereby an utanco of social solidarity which rks through all barriers."

I - HE H SUB! $50, Many "Flappers" 1 On Student Ralls Berkeley, Cal., Jan. 31.?Approximately 2,000 "flappers" are on the University of Californa student rolls, Miss Mary Ide Bentley, former secre- i tary of the San Francisco Young Women's Christian Association, declared in an address here. "Flappers," ivfiss Berttley said, "usually are girls who believe personality is physical, who consider all advice as abstract, who love cafltinual change ' who converse in generalises and who : are in many higher institutions of learning. "To present a picture of the normal girls as she ex:sts today is a daring venture," Miss Bentley added. "She has no average, she has no group tie. She is a stranger to herself?some rimes especially to members of her own family?and cannot be compared ' with her kind of a previous age. "We are tempted to think of her as living in a spirit of masquerade so rap'dl and completely can she assume different and difficult roles of accomplishment. "She tantalizes us bv the simnlo in-sp of her artfulness and yet unreal ness. We find her light-hearted, which is the privilege of youth, Shu believes with Stevenson that 'to have missed the ,ioy is to have - missed it all.' We find her harboring secret? und imbedded emotions which are her hidden treasure in the mysterious dn covery of herself as a private indiv5dual.

Bits of romance n the lives of librarians are furnish-'* i d by mysterious visitors who come to browse in the learned tomes in their keeping. Conversation with' the librarians in the Ryerson library reveal colorful facts. There is the Spanish gentleman named Cehrian who roams about the world collect'ng rare Spanish hooks c>n art which he sends to the library at unexpected intervals. # He is never, it seems, in the same place 1 twice, but he usual'y writes in ad- 1 vence when he is passing through ] Chicago and then pays the library a f visit. Not long n<'o a prosperous looking 4 gentleman came up in great delight to the libr rian's desk and announced that he had found a picture for whrch , he h"d searched for many months, ( spending over one thousand dollars in he search.

"A few years ago we were trying to presuade our women to wear them shorter," said Commissioner Peart in commenting upon the order. "The skirt that trails in the dirt gathering germs is a menace to its wearer's hculth; but the skirt that ^laps around the knees is pretty much of a menace to the modesty of the woman who wears it. The skirt is about the only thing whtnh doesn't appear to be coming down these days and a back to normalcy drive on the too .short dress will do a lot to protect the morals of the rising generation." Commissioner Peart stated that the order would affect every Salvation Army member in 77 countries and colonies where the organization operates with the possible exception of China and Japan where most of the women wear troupers.
