PROSPECTS FO't
AGRICULTURE 1923.
New Year's Statement and resume
of Agricultural conditions and
prospects from Secretary
of Agriculture Wallace.
Twelve months ago most of (lie
six million farmers of the United
Slates were starting on i lie long
hard climb out of the valley of
economic dcpivssioji. They have
not yet attained the heights \vhich
are bathed in ih.y grateful sun
shine of prosperity.- Some,
indeed, have fallen by tin* way.
Others aro still in t:.e valley. j
Nevertheless, as we stop a bit and :
lookback ward we can see th it
very considerable . round has been
gained by the great majority, and
we can enter the New Year with
renewed hope and with that cour
age wlfielt comes from the reali
zati m that we are really making
progress.
A year ago, when speaking of j
'the prospects for farming in 11)2:2,:
I said that while there was no
reason to expect boom times for
the farmer in the near future,
there was promise of oetter times,
both for the fanner and for those!
whose business is largely depend
ent upon him. The year has
brought fulfillment of thai
promise's Speaking generally, J
times are better, much better,
than a jear ago, both for agricul
ture and for industry.
Crops have been good, on the
whole. While there has been a
corresponding advance in the
prices of the thyigs the farmer
mi st buy, the total sum which
farmers will receive for the crops
of this year is greater by a billion
and a ha f dollars or more than
that which tl;e\ received for the
crops of last year. This will cer
tainly mean better times on the
farm, and farm folks will be able
to ease up a little on the grinding
economy they were forced to
practice the preceding year.
The labor cost of producing the
crops of l'J22 was still further re
duced. "There were some sub
stantial reductions «in freight
rates. Much helpful h gislatiou
has been enacted and more wiW
be this winter. Interest rates are
lower and tho redit strain has
been eased. This has made it
possible for many farmers who
were rather heavily involved to
refund t.ieir and get
themselves iu condition to win
through. i
There aro still some dark spots
In some sections weather condi
tions were unfavorable and crops
were short, and farmers iu these
sections are naving a very hard
time of it. Freight rates are still
too high, especially for those who
must pay for a long haul to mar
ket.
Taxes are high, but this_ is
largely due to the increase in lo
cal taxes, over which farmers
themselves must exercise control.
There has been gratifying
growth in farmers' cooperative
marketing associations, and more
of them are being organized on a
sound business basis.
Aside fro-., the help which has
been given by legislation and by
administration activities, strong
economic forces are at work to
restore a more normal relation
between agriculture and other in
dustries.
The peril in the agricultural de
pression is more keenly realized
by other groups than ever before,
and on every hand a sincere de
sire is being evidenced to do what
can be done safely to help the
farmer -.-otter his condition.
Everything considered, we have
good reason to expect still better
things for agriculture iu tho year
i'j23.

NORTH CAROLINA RICH IN
HISTORY AND TRADITIONS.
|
These Being Dramatized at Univer
sity For Preservation.
j World's Work, Dec., 1922.
J The University of North Caro
lina has adopted a plan for pre
serving the history and traditions
of the state which promises to be
, as instructive as it is popular,
j For many years Harvard LTnivers
i ity has aad a course in play writ
ing; this department, has justified
j itself by turning out several p'ay
j wrights who have wou extended
! fame and fortune on Broadway
and in London. The Harvard
course, however, aims to produce
playwrights of universal, scope,
whereas the course recently estab
lished at the University of North
Carolina has a more restricted
field. North Carolina his a his
tory particularly rich in legend
las well as in actual achievement.
The mountaineers in the western
part of the state are among tiie
j most delightful and historically
I interesting survivals' in this
counter. Praeiically every moun
| tain has its story and I he -.-.did:-. of
'Scotland itself aro no more foil
of feuds and adventure and ro
| marine. The association of Sir
[Walter Ilaleigh with this state
'and the lost colony, the Croatau
j Indians and the Mecklenburg
I Declaration, the stirring scenes
, ( of the Revolutionary War, to say
nothing o£ the excitement of tho
, | Civil War and of tha reconstruc
tion period that followed, cer
tainly contain material enough to
i keep many playwrights busy for
a c aisiderable time.
These are tho traditions and
J the historical incidents to which
the new course iu playwriiing at
,|the North Carolina University
,is now devoting its energies.
Even though the successful play-j
, wrights who have been develop
ed at Harvard may not material
ize at Chapel Ilill—though thero
is no good reason why they
should not —the work is well;
worth whib. It is educational
in the highest sense and univer
sity extension work of the
finest kind. More and more 1
mod rn universities aro real
izing the uew conception—that it
, : s their business to be part of the !
, community in which they exist;
to preserve the best traditions of
the state and to familiarize its
people with all good thoughts and
actions. Certainly uo more at
. tractive way can be found of do
, ing : iiis than that which the Uni
i versity of North Carolina has now
discovered. The fact that tho
[ plays are not only written by the
, students but staged and acted by
. | them gives the University ail un
dergraduate activity of au espe
cially wholesome and elevating
. kind.
i
Use And Abuse of Lime.
The use of lime in North Caro
, l ; na is advocated by the Division
of Agronomy, according to W. F.
i Pate, of the N. C. Experiment
Station, but only under certain
; conditions. The soil must be
i wet and sour arid a system of
i crop rotation should be followed
.[which includes the growing of
jsonie legume crops.
. When liine is used with regard
11 to the proper rotation, an in
!cr»ased yield may be seen for a
few years but in the long run the
I soil will become poorer and the
) I yield less than if no lime had
I bee ti used, The •Id adage of
j | "Lime and Lime without manure
»! makes both farm and farmer
• poorer" will in most cases prove
inn*.
Some of the (fcils in the states
l are deficient in many elements
j I of plant food snejuas lime, nitro
i gen, and potash, and when lime
is used to supply this deficiency
or to neutralize or destroy sour
ness, it shoul 1 by very beneficial
Although the use of lime has
' been practiced for many yeaTs,
' | its effect on soils and crops *as
never fully understood and even
now its nee is Advocated when
Mlhe soit is extremely yW*t and

'PUT SAFETY LAST
British Sailor Reversed the Usual

Captain Campbell, V. C., royul navy,

Time and again Captain Campbell
took a chance and came through, while
the cautious took their caution down

Tin life of Sir William Van Home Is
a great sermon on the text "Safety
las',." Donald Smith and his col
i leagues had a vision of clamping ail
British Ninth America with an Iron
banc!. They came to Minneapolis to
consult v ith James J. Mill.
"You need," said Hill, "a man of
great menial and physical power to
! put the line through. Van Home can
I do It."
From the first the scheme was prob
lematical. The railway man who un
dertook It was risking his career. Van
Home had before him an assured suc
cess in the United States, but as a
] friend put jt, "He went off chasing rab
bits into the wilderness." The task
j which called him was the execution
of ihe greatest railway project in the
world. The naturaT obstacles to he
overcome Were, unparalleled. Un
daunted he turned hi* back on the easy
places and ventured forth.
Said one of his engineers, "He al
ways acted as If nothing were Imiws
slble. He was not always right. He
was the kind that would go out,on the
side of | mountain and say 'Blow that
down.' He would not ask If It could
be done. _He would
times the thing 'was impossible under
ordinary circumstances, but he had
such luck. Some accident or other
would happen so the thing could* be
blown up or torn down without any
harm. His luck, his daring and his
fearlessness Just carried him through."
Or, to put It more clearly, pluck car
ried him through.
Physical obstacles were the least of
the opposition met by Van Home and
I his colleagues. "On one fateful day In
I July," writes Professor Skelton, "when
the final passage of the bill was being
tensely awaited, the Canadian Pacific,
I which can borrow $50,000,000 any day
before . breakfast, was within three
, hours of bankruptcy for lack of a few
• hundred thousand dollars."
Optimism Is a nice word, but right
now pluck Is a thousand times more
. what we are needing. Amid the soft
ness of today we need more stoutness
of heart. There Is a Gaelic phrase,
"Sioul fear ferraii," which means "the
' sons of manly men." On the floor of the
1 stock exchange, on the tl'sir of the
reeking foundry, wherever there Is hesi

tOESM'T KNOW HOW TO LOVE
Gilbert Franltaj Believes the Younfl
Worran of Today Is Not Capable
of Self-Sacrifice.
You have to watch the modern
i dance to see the- modern girl at her
most self-reveitllng. ltegurd her care
fully, this bepalnted, bepowdered, be
manicured product of our hectic age,
as she circles the ballroom. She
dances emotionally, but her emotions
are for the rhythm and the music, not
for the mere male, her partner. Even
In a man's arms she Is as nearly sex
less as the ladles of the Lyslstrata,
Gilbert Frankau writes In the Forum.
Regarding her thus, one cannot help
answering the question which stands
at the head of this article In the most
emphatic negative. No! Give her all
her good qualities, her poise, her-ef
ficiency, herMntelllgence and you will
still be forced to admit that—Judging
her superficially—the modern girl Is
not canable of a great nnd enduring
love. To begin with, she is too selfish,
to i s i-'-centered, too set on tlft* nur
s'iH (•' what 1 -> ( .n 'tiers pleasure,
1 to übt n • »i her elf to that self-sacrl
| flto-wh.eh in love, at Its best. And
th 'Ti, p : hints, she Is to vim.
| My"4f f, I tt iti and have always been,
i a str>>Pg supporter of the civil con-
I. trrct in matrimony. Matrimony,
! af'er alt. Is—however much sentl
j mental, luldc'e-t ged fogeys like my
-1 self may like to regard it as *a pure
| love affair—a legal undertaking. And
I think that it is high time for the
j young man of today to understand
j that his legal undertaking when he
marries a self-supporting or an Inde
! pendent young woman Is not confined
purely and simply to housing her. The
modern woman, you see, Is something
more than a mere domesticated pet.
She requires her leisures, her pleas
ure* and, more perhaps even than
these, her full partnership rights.
STARLIGHT HEAT SPECTRUM
Scientist of Bmithaonian Institution
Explains How Be
Determined.
By measuring a hundred millionth
degree of temperature and a trllllonth
| of an ampere of electric current, Dr.
O. G. Abbot of the Smiths" nian Institu
tion has determined for the first time
the heat spectrum of starlight, as he
•nnounced In aa address at tha Car
negie Institution of Washington.
Working with the 100-inch telescope
at Mount Wilson observatory this fall.
Doctor Abbot measured the heat at dlf
"erent parts of the spectrum of ten
stars and the sun. The rays were dis
persed by a spectroscope In a band
sunllar to the rainbow.
The bright star Capella, which Is
very similar to our own sun in Its
Spectrum, was found to furnish the
equivalent of one horsepower to an
ureu on the earth approximately equal
to the state of Minnesota. Rut this
prominent stffr Is feeble Compared
| with our sun, which Is equal to a
I hundred billion (Vpellus and sends
down on twenty square feet heat equal
to a horsepower. On the whole earth
Capella's heat equals 500 horsepower,
and as all -the stars together equal
500 Oapellas, this would amount to
one-quarter million horsepower over
the whole earth from the stars- alone.

BRUSHES FOR HOUSEHOLD
1 i
They May Be Divided Into Three
Classes, Which Are Brittle, Hair, j
and Fiber.
There are two classes of brushes,
those with backs and ..those with
out. These come In bristle, In hair and
in fiber. It Is fiber and bristles that
are of special Interest In discussing
household needs.
The backless brush has the ad
vantage of being usable In any posi
tion and thereby being at least twice
as long-lived as the brush whose only
working surface Is one side. These
brushes are nnirvelously made and the
bristles, hair, fiber or fabric (mops)
are so fastened In as to make a falling
bristle almost an Impossibility. These
brushes come In every department of
house life: toilet, bath, pantry, laun
dry, clothes, kitchen, halls and walls.
The Husslan pony gives the best horse
hair, nncl the wild boar gives the most
and hi'-st bristles. The test for the
bristle is thi't It will not break If
bent buck and will spring Into place
lignln. The lmlr ami bristle when
burned give a characteristic lmlr odor.
The fiber brush, though a cheaper
brush. Is ii'! >p'ed to things for which
the bristle brush Is not adapted. The
fiber makes a good scrubbing brush,
but the bristle would not be stiff
enough. Many fibers are made to look
like bristle, but the bristle test will
snve you from a rash purchase. The
bristle brush Is expensive and so Is
the brush of camel or badger hair
from which painting and shavln?
brushes are made.
Radium From Bohemia.
Government-owned mines at Jachy
mov, Bohemia, are turning out ura
nium ore, rich In radium, and the
known supply Is Raid to be sufficient
for 20 years at the present rate of
production; In addition, there are
three large mines not yet prospected
hs to depth. These facts are given
out by the Scientific American. Two
grams of radium a year are now be
ing produced and net profits to the
Czechoslovak republic for the past year
were about 3,500,000 crowns. The ra
dium Is selling today at 10,000,000
crowns per grain, a crown being now
worth about 1.04 cents. While pro
duction In the United States Ir greater
In quantity, the .Tachymov orea are
reputed to be rloher In quality.
"Pardnere,'? '"\ v '
In these days of bonding companies
and enormous corporations the old
phraae, "His word was as good as his
bond," has a homely sound, and little
tales of partnership with never
a hard and fast legal instrument nam
ing what Is his and. what Is other's,
seem like old tales out of the past.

and George M. Cohan dissolved their

the Yukon have Interfered with the
progress of steamers. The herd Is
, so vast that the hunting by men, wom
en and children, who have provided
nearly every home with deer meat for
the winter, has made no noticeable
effect on It.

Clover Increases Corn Yield.
N. C. Agr'l Extension Service.
Trenton, N. C., Dec. 16. C. M. I
Foy, who lives four miles from I
Trenton in Jones county, has I
r ound that it pays to use a legume I
in building up his crop yields. la I
a demonstration conducted in co- ■
operation with County Agent E. I
F. Fletcher this past season, aa I
acre of laud which was planted to I
corn gave some interesting re- I
suits. This entire aero was ferti- I
lized with 120 pounds of an 8-8-3 I
fertilizer before the corn was I
planted on May IG. All of the I
land in the acre was the same I
type. T)u one-fourth of the acre, I
crimson clover was p'owed under I
before the corn was planted; onQ- I
fourth had the clover grazed and I
the stubble plowed under; one* I
fourth was given a top dresser of I
20u pounds of an 0 —!>—2, and one- I
fourth was used a* a check plot I
with nothing added except the I
regular fertilizer u.sed over the I
whole acre when ihe corn was I
planted.
Here are the yields:
Plot with clover -41.5 bushelS' 1
per acre.
Plot with clover mubble— 37.7 I
bushels per acre.
Hot with top dresser'—36.o
bushels per acre.
Plot used as check—2G.4 bosh- j
els per^cre.
This demonstration proves that 1
clover will help to increase the
average yfeld because the plot 1
which wab fertilized with an 8-3-3
mixture gave only 26.4 bushels, I
while the plot on wL.ch the clover I
was plowed under before the same
fertilizer was added gave a yie : d
of 41.5, an increase of over 15 I
bnsheles per acre. E. C. Blair of !
the Division of Agronomy assist
ed Mr. Fletcter and Mr. Foy in
conducting this demonstration jl
