One Solution.
Because of a controversy with a
labor union, the Ford Motor Corn-
announced last week that it
close its assembly plant in
City, Mo. Final closing:
the plant means the loss of jobs
ta 3,000 employes and the loss to
Kansas City of a three million-dol-
tar payroll.
That’s one solution of the dif-
fiealties that have been developing
tn labor and capital for the
several years. What manu
facturers term unreasonable de
mands on the part of labor, backed
by costly strikes, cannot but have
an adverse effect upon capital and
na doubt other industrialists will
bo tempted to follow Henry Ford’s
csnmp e unless there be an early
rith honor” between the
warring camps. Af:er all
is nothing to prevent an in
going on strike if it feels
it is being pushed too far, just as
ised Ubor strikes when its
are not readily met.

Port LAB TREND TO
PHONOGRAPH RECORDS
Them is a current surge of popu
larity to recorded musk for phono
graphs. When Mr. and Mrs. Amer
ica like anything they really like
it—and want lots of it To this
is atthbtled the growing rage for
musical records; a person hears a
new piece on the radio, or at a
theatre end immediately has a
burning desire to hear the tune
over and over again. Unable to
hear the particular piece on the air
except when it is played in the
course of some program, Mr. and
Mrs. America insist on having all
they want of what they want—so
it’s their favorite music on phono
graph records that they go for.
They play their own encores and
they love it
To meet this growing demand,
Gerrald’s 5 and 10 Cent Store has
stocked “Bluebird” records, which
are priced at only 35 cents each or
three for $1.00. See advertisement
elsewhere in this issue of The Peo
ple-Sentinel.

The secretary ruled further, accord

Cotton paid on farm land will also

B OLLS that are small, hard, and fail to open properly
due to cotton rust (potash starvation) are hard to
pick. They slow up harvest and cause growers an
annual loss amounting to millions of dollars. Even with
excessive rainfall, in many sections this year rust dam
age has been as severe as it was during the dry weather
last yaar. Thare is only ona known way to control
cotton rust—USE MORE POTASH. In addition to con
trolling rust, potash produces larger yields, and heavier
seed and bolls. It makes more lint per seed, better
grade, longer staple, stronger fibers, and a higher
percentage of normal fibers .... Plan now to produce
a crop next year that will grow normally to maturity.
It can be done by using a fertilizer containing 6 to 10%
potash and a nitrogen-potash top-dresser if necessary.
Consult your county agent or experiment station about
the fertility of your soil. See your fertilizer dealer about
the right amounts of potash in your cotton fertilizer.

mation and literature.
