The opposite course, that of definitely annexing | the agricultural ‘knowledge of the nation and the} world increases and im the laboratories and on the experimental farms they have found the best ways to produce more foodstuffs on a smaller area and how to keep soil healthy even though it is being in- | tensively worked. . The trouble seems to lie, however, in the slow dis- | semination of this information to the farmer, or else to his distaste to learn anything from “college | professors.” Consequently the farms at large are! far behind the constant developments of science. | Perhaps the newer generation of farmers, with their | ! own college educations, will be able to see the light | and concentrate their efforts in channels that will; {produce the most foodstuffs with the greatest ef- | { ficiency. | Protect the Game The American game protective a cates the strict control cf spee mammals which prey upon game cating their extermination in game refuges and) other areas where game concentrates. Complete extermination is not desirable in areas where these seiation advo- | s of birds and} ly advo-| become pests. Local conditions determine the lb status of these birds and mammals and no hard a fast line can be drawn. ‘The game destroyed by these predatory species is | far in excess of the reduction by hunting and pre- r greater menace to the maintenance of stocks than the rifles and shotguns | of amateur hunt: And while it is not possible | under the Ameri system of game conservation | to employ trained game keepers to guard game fields and systematically control predatory speci as is done in other countries where game is pri- vately cwned, still seme approximation of their the islands to this country, will of course never be! seriously considered by congress. That body, how- | ever, likely will give grave consideration to the pro- | pogal that a definite period of years, say 25 or 40,| bd=set aside, within which the United States will| nat even consider the subject of island independence. | And there is no doubt that such a scheme would | have many advantages. It would give the Fili-| pifios, for instance, the opportunity to develop capi-| tal for self-government, it would create stability in; the status of the islands which would encourage | American investment in the Philippines and the rub- ber, sugar, hemp, tobacco and cocoanut industries | would receive the necessary impetus to put them on! their feet financially. | ‘here is another thing to recommend this plan,i and that is that within that time maybe the “Manila! gang,” which has been so vociferously demanding in- dependence, that they might with impunity plunder the wholly native government that would follow, ; might be exterminated. The Manila gang has been’ for a long time a thorn in the side of the American | governor of the islands and has been the responsi- bfe animus back of all the obviously staged demon- | strations designed to impress Colonel Thompson. The latter, however, is apparently an astute gen- | tleman and sees the genuine behind the sham, and it isan open secret that all the propaganda which has #1 let loose to impress him has failed of its mark jis larger than the railway station. methods might be employed to maintain certain species of game in abundance, j A small town is a place where the filling station | — 2 i Bofore the X-ray was d d, women were the only ones who could see through a man, You can’t violate the laws of nature without get- ting caught. t» get home before the ic im melts. The New Exodus (Minneapolis Journal) Considering that “about five hundred thousarel Americans are crossing the ocean this summer for four or eight cr twelve weeks in Europe, Helen Taft Manning, Dean of Bryn Mawr College, expresses a doubt in McCall’s Magazine whether this horde of travelers will accomplish much for themselves edu- cationally, or whether they will help to lay any last-; ing foundations for international understanding and and by its very vociferousness, has made him doubly ' good will. She rather wonders if the exodus and suspicious of its authenticity. 2 The Auto Industry ,.From a cursory survey of the situation in the au- témobile manufacturing and distributing field, it would seem just about time that many of the man- return are not rather symptoms of the general rest- lessness. Undoubtedly, most of these travelers care little | for improving themselves educationally. They are} perhaps able to “connect up” a little better because ‘of visiting the spots where history has been made wacturers and agencies looked into the economies | #"4 of which historian and novelist have written, of the situation before progressing any further along the lincs of tremendous expansion being followed by * many. “Not that a feeling of pessimism should prevail, hut a more sane viewpoint should be acquired be- fore millions in capital are foolishly spent. =In the first place the competition in the automo- tive field has become so keen that the lowered Prices have cut into the normal profits. This could ordinarily be borne in an ever increasing buying field—but—the used car situation is so tying up the distributing end of the business and represents stch a loss to distributors and dealers, that the mar- ket becomes more and more constricted in compari- #n with the production. The time is soon coming when the production must be halted for a period to permit the buying market to clear away the second- hand car deadwood and prepare for the purchaze of Hew vehicles, 4 Modify the Doctrine? elt has been more than generally hinted, at the sessions cf the institute of politics being held at Williamstown, Mass., that the Latin-American coun-' tries would rather be less bound by relations with Be United States-and be free to enter whole-hearted- ly into the league of nations for the adjudication @ disputes. __ Latin-America feels, after the failure of the Unit- @ States to accomplish mediation in the Tacna- Arica dispute, that perhaps the league would be a bit better for quick and efficient action. « This is all right in theory, and of course no one @uld wish that these countries be not free to do! they wish, but let us remember that for them @ unqualifiedly join the league of nations, it is| ry for us to recast or abandon the Monroe i and we are not so sure that the time is yet Fype for such a far-reaching move on our part. = = : Intensive Farming One of the most serious problems which is due to! bnfrort the white race, which even now confronts is that of producing sufficient foodstuffs with ich to feed the multitude. With the great strides | | science has made toward lengthening the span and decreasing the infant mortality rate becomes self-evident that if the present birth rate tains its relative percentage, it will not take to seriously over-populate this earth. As of physical space, the earth, of course, can of housing many billions more of people | it.can Only a relatively small portion of is fit for cultivation and there is but as a rule they give these things small thought and little study. They are abroad for a change and | rest and a solace for their emptiness of mind, and they enjoy moving about. The jority, of course, do concern themselves with the great things of the past and do improve their time and increase their knowledge. But for the majority, travel is merely a change and a re- lief. | And is this not reason enough in many cases? 'The best improvement for a field sometimes is to let it lie fallow, As for laying foundations for lasting international understanding and good will, neither is that the business of the restless traveler. Though he will do that very thing insofar as he shows due courtesy to his hosts, in whatever country he may visit. Let him do otherwise, and he will displace more founda- tion stones of international good will than he can possibly lay. But what a wonderful phenomenon is this of half a million travelers crossing a vast waste of waters in a single summer for the mere purposes of rest and change! What a comment it is on the wide- spread prosperity and comfort of life on this con- tinent! And with what marvelous safety and con- venience are these journeyings made! This feature in itself is enough to cause more general wonder than it receives, 33 o ode And it would seem, as the various peoples ‘inter- mix and know one another better, that many of the old prejudices and errors would tend to soften and relax and a better feeling all around should set in. In‘such case, the half million crossing the ocean this summer are not crossing in vain—even though half of them never visit a cathedral, a picture gal- lery or a museum, Mr. Coolidge’s Good Advice (Milwaukee Journal) From Paul Smith’s, where President Coolidge is fishing, comes word that Mr. Czolidge wonders if too much attention hag not been paid to reports of attacks on American tourists in Europe. Details of | these, street brawls, such as there have been, show, that Americans traveling abroad have usually been ; offensive. If a foreigner in this country should get smart and undertook t2 show his contempt for | things American, in similar circumstances, by past- ing his suitcase up with dollar bills, or tearing them up, he'd soon be running for an alley with a gang at his heels. Some American tqurists, it was re- marked down at Paul Smith’s, are of a somewhat bumptious nature. And it might be added that they | are likely to get more bumptious when they ea filled with vin blanc. sie the birth rate by birth control and there ‘doubt that the present tendency in that direction| get away from their own land.

And it is most unfortunate that so few Americans ever they would learn that peoples elsewhere are not s0 different from ourselves, and there would be an un- derstanding sympathy for the difficulties of others, whether their troubles come from their own mis- THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE The Joy Riders i BEGIN HERE TODAY MRS.
