It woufd cost ttfty fnlffions to run in a pipe line. But at least the Rockefellers know that there ia an Arctic reserve. FERTILIZERS For All Crops “AGRICO” Fertilizers contain all the elementa of plant food which have long been regarded as essential to the fertilization of growing crops, as well as other elements which have not been so generally recognized. They may be fairly called the “Premier Fertilizers** of the age. At Ventura, on the Pacific Oast, the Shell Oil Company’s docks were washed away. Its tankers could load no oil. Associated Oil said: “Bring your tank ships here, w’e’U load them." Associated runs a pipe line half u mile out on the bottom of the sea, has a flexible pipe anchored at the' surface and fills tanks, storm or no storm. Nearby are wells driven down through the water, pumping up oil from below the Pacific. Sui>- mannies some day will find much wealth for enterprising prospec tors. Professor Ross, sound thinker, of the University of Wisconsin, has cheer for this troubled world. It in getting bettor, he says. A hundred years hence the average man will enjoy b&efita .of civil.ia- tiort ^n6W.?,'enjoyed only by the mopt advanced people.”- Religions are less violent in their hates than they used to be. The Average length of life is in creasing.

At the same time they represent the babyhood of man. If we could see our de scendants of 50,000 years hence we probably should scarcely recog nize them as our owp, And as for our descendants of a millipn and a hundred million years from now—science says the >oarth will last as long as that-— they will probably be as unlike us rs we are unlike so many rhinoceroses. Antiiony Ei;r.ba, editor ;of a Communist newspaper, to be'tried for blasphemy under a law 229 years old, is accused j of denying the existence of God. His lawyer will say that the Constitution, which, guarantees free speech, rules out the blasphemy charge. Why not leave the case to the Ruler of the Universe, in whose omnipotence the vast majority believe He has power to wither Mr. Bimba, as the barren fig tree was withered. But it is possible that omnipotence is not much in terested in what Mr. Bimba be lieves. ,,The way to make fooHahness, blasphemous or other, important, is to take it seriously. The Government, fighting the National Food Products Corpora tion, explains that the plan is "to fight a tendency toward tmets, rather than ‘o ‘"cl trusts al- rr-'- The battle against big businesa, which is the real name of the “trust,” was fought and lost long ago. Modem business, to succeed, must be big business. The Gov- irnment’s business is to super vise big business, control it, and encourage it, not discourage it. No business in the United States is as big as it ought to be. OUNCE OF prevention : ’ ' : , ' • . : " .... <Vs. '• Physicians and drugs are indeed of inestimable value in worthy ef fort to combat disease already on hand; but the student of prevent ive medicine, it seems to me, is capable of doing even greater good. If you happen to know that typhoid germs get into the system with drinking-water from a con taminated well, you at once 1 take steps to eradicate the danger be fore harm is done. The mosquito that breeds in your rain-barrel is a carrier of disease. Remove the cause of trouble. A swamp near your homo is a constant menace and should not be tplerated—drain it. If you are a user of milk, be sure that your source of supply is pure and healthy. Remember that tubercu losis germs may be in*:allowed as well as inhaled. If yo^ contcmplato moving into a p’♦chased home, see that its walls ai>d floors have hern treatedwith an* unfailing anti- • septic; it will cost tl:.:e, effort aid money, but the outlay is less than for invalids and .—r.rrals.

Not enough, but belief" than nothing. And the total appropriation for the navy- late,000.000! The idiocy of that last figure is made clear by the fact that if war of the modem kind should come the airships would have to protect our hundreds of million. ’ worth of ships floating on the water. Only submarines and flying machine; would be of any value. In any real business, managed by competent business men, such trash as our battleships would have been junked long ago. These new Ipvv prices set a new record of achievement in automo bile history—one that establishes a new basis of motor car value, beyond question, the gi cutest in the world.
