At first glance this looks like a very cheap and greedy pitce of business. But after all, isn't that in effect what all employers do the 1 the world over in instances where' their workers are is the tip-taking class? They levy upon the employ ees by paying low wages. The dif ference between what they pay and what ordinarily ' would be paid is made up in tips. It all amounts to the employees getting their bits out of gratuities. You would not tip a 1 stockholder of the Pullman company i by putting silver in his hand. Never- ! theless, the stockholder gets his tip. ! I 0 SOUTHERN FRUIT BLOSSOM PA GEANTS Georgia peaches and Arkansas . apples annually get a colorful adver tising from their annual spring festi vals and pageants to which thou, sands go to make merry. Orgeon's rose festival, California's prune, raisin and orange festivals all help advertise different phases of ^Jthe farming industry, says an Associa tion of Manufacturers, which has been making a survey of farming pageants, festivals and days. Blos som time in Georgia's peach area is a never to-be.fofgotten event for the eye and nose. Arkansas apple blos soms tell a colorful story equally appealing to the senses, and the producing communities are not 8^ow in capitalizing the advertising value of color and scent These orchards are run on the most modern scientif ic lines of "farming that Insure the highest class products for the most exclusive markets, frequent spraying i ; fertilization, cultivating, trucking by motor and cooling in rapid transit refrigerator cars being followed. o V BUILDING ACTIVITY BEGIN8 To thousands of people the country over, the fact that home building is being accomplished in such large volume 11b pleasurable news, for de spite the almost superhuman post, war efforts to replenish the lack of homes created by failure to build du ring the war, there are now none too many homes In this country. In. a good many cities, there may now be a slight surplus of homes, but it would /take very little to wipe out this surplus. Home seekers may well feel cheerful, therefore, over the activity in the home building in dustry. Prolongation of this activ ity means a lessening in the pres sure of demand and Insurance against abnormal rental charges. o FARM PRODUCTION ENORMOUS Fferm production last year, with a value of $12,404,000,000, exclusive of j crops fed to livestock, had a rela- 1 tive exchange value in terms of non- ' agricultural commodities of $7,642, 000,000, according to estimates of the United States Department of Ag riculture. This is an amount great er than that of any year since 1919 and is one percent above the ex change value of farm production du ring the pre-war years, 1910 to 1914. These figures are of interest, be cause ordinarily the purchasing pow er of farmers is shown by index numbers. These aggregate value estimates show very clearly the vast economic losses sustained by agricultural sec tions during the severe post-war de flation period. In 1919, the total ex change value of farm products, ex clusive of crops fed to livestock, was |8,165r000, 000. In 1921 this exchange value was only $6,221,000 000, representing a depreciation of nearly one-quarter in real value or | in the aggregate bnylpg ability of I the nation's farmers. What effect ,j this had upon economic conditions of the country as a whole can thus be readily visualised. o Millions Genuine Potato Plants.
