The depressing fact, so far as the farmer is concern- &d, is that corn brings a very small price per bushel and coal i, brings a very great price per ton. ! 1ot of adequate size may snap his fingers at the coal man, but i the farmer who is not so equipped must decide here and now on the fuel question, An acre or two of trees or several acres is'a I fine thing to have on a farm, but it takes time to plant them and time for them to grow. It will'be at least a dozen years before anything much larger than twigs can be obtained for fuel from (8 a grove planted now. In the meantime, the farmer must keep { warm or freeze. If he is to keep warm he must use the means 1 which are at hand now. Many farmers must ‘take the choice {§ between selling their corn at a low price and buying coal with| g. the proceeds at a high price, or burning the corn to afford the/ | r“ # requisite amount of heat. 8 The advice given in this connection resembles a good deal| of the adviee that is given in connection with othe) subjects. We find reams of such advice given in connection with the arma- '”’ ment conference. The president of the United States conceived the idea that it would be a good thing for the major nations to| do something now to lessen the burden of taxes due to immense armament and to head off armament increases for the future.|, No sooner was this purpose announced than a clamor was set up in many quarters for the solution of all the international problems that ever presented themselves, and their solution right now regardless of the purpose of the armament confer- # ' ence. If the conference should heed the advice of this) kind that has been given, it would fritter away its time for weeks, would accomplish nothing in the nature of promoting the cause of real peace throughout the world, and would wreck the pos- sibility of even an approach to disarmament by ‘complicating that subject with a multitude of others on which agreement at this time is manifest impossibility. The disposition of the con- . ference is to proceed along the lines laid down' in the call; to discuss reduction of nayal armament:and' the elimination so far | as possible of the causes which might provoke the nations to| war. With these two things kept steadfastly before it, the con-| ference may and doubtless will reachivery desirable results.—| s ' Grand Forks Herald, | ——Shop Early and Mail Early! . THE MATERNITY BILL ; ..* On the day before Thanksgiving, President Harding signed B . the “Maternity Bill,” providing for the states in promoting the welfare of maternity and .infancy. | After more than three years of struggle, the bill was passed by/ _ both houses of congress by very large majorities. | dren’s bureau of the United States Denartment of Labor is given| the administration of the' act, and the chief of the Children’s | bureau is made the executive officer, A total appropriation of | $1,480,000 is authorized for the current fiscal year and an ap- propriation of $1,240,000 for each of the five years thereafter. - Except for a small percentage to be used for administrative || purposes, the money is to be divided amongthe states accepting - the provisions of the act, to be used together with state funds| ' for promoting the welfare and hygiene of maternity and in- ' fancy. ernment. These states include) Delaware, Minnesota, New | Hampshire, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and South Dakota. ‘Each state accepting the act will receive from the federal government $10,000 the first year, and $5,000 a year there- after. An additional $5,000 will be paid, provided the state ap-| . . propriates $5,000 of its own for the same purpose. This makes 'a total of $15,000 the fixst year and $10,000 a year for each | year thereafter, available from federal funds to each state re- gardless of its size, provided it accepts the act. In addition, . $710,000 a year is provided to be distributed among the states | - on the basis of population, with the proviso that the amounts thus apportioned are matched by state appropriations. : ‘Whether this legislation will prove 100 per cent effective in : the work it aims to cover, will depend very largely on the efli- eiency of the oflicers placed in charge of the administration of’| the act and the disbursement of the funds. That the funds are needed for this cause is very evident, and much benefit will result from the operation’of the act if politics are kept out of . the administration of it 4nd the'usual endless red tane forgotten. : ——_Shop Early and*Mail Early! - per doz. - and up NEW PHOTO STUDIO OVER FARMERS STATE BANK' DAY PIONEER WANT ADS BRING RESULTS tbuilding, | | t o ST.
