In some instances flax has been-sowed instead of wheat and in other cases cer- tain grains have been specifically urged in an effort to produce a better balance and thus stabilize farm condi- tions, Ary scheme to adjust planting ratios on the farm must be along scientific lines. To discourage'a farmer against planting wheat, which in the past for the most part has been @ good cash crop, and leave him up in the air, as it were, as regards what he is to plant in its place will do more harm than good. The wheat habit is a hard one to break. Thousands of farmers in the wheat belt are accustomed to depend upon wheat and it is no easy mat- ter to persuade them to abandon much of their acrcage in favor of other kinds of crop. Neither is there any guarantee that the price of the substituted crop will oe better than the discarded wheat. While there is much that is specious in farm acreage ‘adjustment, the idea is basically sound if properly ap- plied. Scientific application is hard just as it is difficult to apply the various farm relief remedies proposed by i They don't always relieve and the farmers know that. sification, as reflected in the increased acreage of corn, alfalfa and other feed crops. The arguments used then are the same as those used now. Many farmers in North Dakota have learned the lessdn of acreage adjustment and are practicing it as a matter of course and benefiting by it. But it is not an easy matter for the average farmer to be informed on world market conditions. He has no yardstick as has the manufacturer in fixing the output of his factory. It {8 very easy for the so-called farm ex- pert to advise the cutting down of acreage here and there, but Mr. Farmer is faced witha real problem and that he has been slow in solving it is no reflection on him. Acreage adjustment is an exceedingly hard job along with the other farm chores which only the man on the land really can appreciate. The Test in Illinois Prohibition is probably the outstanding iseue of the Now comes Mr. Lewis who says rather belligerently: “It is an issue from which I shall not allow any candi- iste—man or woman—to escape.” ‘The prohibition issue is before the nation more promi- feently than ever before.

As de- veloped, this proposal now contemplate the unloading of the New York state barge canals on the federal govern- ment. Which means a big expense to be carried by the national treasury if ever that conversion is ‘accomplished. It would ceem that some of the fears expressed for the diversion of port expansion to Halifax, in the event of the Bt, Lawrence being chosen as the ultimate outlet of great lakes commerce to Europe are premature. It would seem that Duluth might profit greatly in that event as a crain shipping port, Recent discussion has stressed that possi- bility. Anyhow, the construction of the Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway will not unload old barge canals on the federal government, while the development of clectric power that ‘would result from the river canalization by Canada and the United States would provide a vast source of revenue. Canada already is enjoying that prospect. With the set- tlement of the United States attitude on the question of private handling of the power versus public operation of utilities, the uncertainty of present policy would be dissipated and the nation could enter on the project with its share of canalization assured of recompense in the form of returns from electric power. As an experiment, therefore, the New York canal plan is assured of impracticability. There remains only the Bt. Lawrence waterway to consider, If it should fail or de- velop @ Canadian port at the expense of the United States, it would at least pay itself. The New York plan seems a failure both ways from the outset, without any relief to Northwest grain shipments. How the Talkies Grow New York reports indicate that $100,000,000 of new cap- ital will be marshalled to promote the interests of only one great film corporation. Add to this sum, the mil- lions being assembled to finance other “talkies” and some conception of the vast growth of the industry can be had. The days of the silent screen presented few problems compared with the complex situation which now con- fronts the movie producer. He is now dependent upon actors of distinction. Voice enters into the picture also. Beauty alone fails to bring recognition and merely to film well may be @ secondary rather than in the past, @ prime requisite. Today, France, Spain, Italy, Mexico and many other nations are demanding that the great successes be in the language of the country where the films are shown for exhibition, That has become a hard nut to crack. In| On April 22, 1915, the second the days of the silent drama, some obscure translator solved the language problem at a small expense. Now it is necessary to build up studios in the great capitals of the world where “talkies” can be produced in: various tongues and dialects. In order to hold the amusement field in the all.quar- ters of the globe, the film producers need ever increasing reservoirs of capital to draw upon.
