Logan Payne Co. CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Driving Farm Cooperation Home The unpropitious conditions faced at this time of har- vest by farming, with the wagon price of wheat 69 cents in Kansas last week and cotton down to 12 cents in the Southwest, while recently the local price of rye was 27 cents, should give force to the adjuration of Chairman Legge, of the farm board, that farm organizations get under “one roof.” The whole spirit of the farm marketing act is to pro- duce this form of cooperation, instead of the piecemeal organization that now exists, often animated by jealous- ies rather than a common sympathy tending to unity of effort and of plans and policies. Without unity, farmers can not expect to get anywhere except about where they now are, and that is on a basis of wasted energy producing back-breaking surpluses of grain crops ang cotton at unprofitable prices—often be- low the very cost of production. Steel was in this condition prior to the formation of the initial steel combine. But the advantages which J. P. Morgan, Judge Gary and other leaders foresaw in their movement to combine the industry in time per- meated the entire field of that production. The bigger, the more cohesive farmers organization can be developed to he, the greater the opportunity for overcoming present drawbacks in agriculture. It is the only way by which agriculture can control its business and acquire that leadership which is essential to success, just as the leadership of Judge Gary in steel finally achieved the purposes for which the industry was com- bined. ‘As pointed out by Chairman Legge in his recent ad-+ dress, broadcast from Washington, the great advantage that comes to farmers who mass large units of products, is the better bargaining power thus attained than when they come to market by the thousands, each selling his own crop and competing with other individuals. Even an untrained group of farmers, he said, can market col- lectively to better advantage than the private agency which has no control over the flow of the commodity but tales the product as it comes. “Jt has been clearly demonstrated in this country,” he continued, “that producers of farm crops can so regu- late the marketing of their products collectively that they never have a glut. If there is any surplus, they can keep it at home and save the freight.” “As you know,” he said, “there are several of the so- called general farm organizations in this country which might some day be brought under the same roof, Imag- ine what power these organizations could generate if their forces were all mobilized into one unit and put to work organizing farmers to improve conditions for agri- culture.” An Old-Fashioned Dope Dream Probably you have never drunk catmint brew, but your aticestors did, and it is likely that you may in the future, for catmint is one of the dozens of herbs now being re- introduced by American garden enthusiasts after an al- ‘most complete disappearance of more than a century. ‘The herb garden is coming back. Perhaps the same urge that prompts the antique collector is responsible for its revival. Perhaps the expert amateur gardeners who fre leading the movement simply want to find if the al- most forgotten herbs really have the potent properties our ancestors claimed for them. But throughout the East gardeners who take their horticulture seriously are again planting the things that made the garden of a century or more ago a source of medicine, perfume, condiments and other useful aids to family life, reports a writes in the Home and Field magazine. Catmint, for example, was held by earlier Americans to be as wholesome as Oriental tca and as pleasant to the taste, but when the clipper ships began coming back from China with their cargoes of tea leaves the romantic ap- peal of the Oriental beverage soon caused the extinction of catmint as a drink. In a similar way other members of the colonial herb garden became obscure when bottled medicines and quickly procured chemicals, perfumes, condiments and dressings appeared on the drug store and grocery shelves. Some such as larkspur, foxgloves and poppies, highly valued for their medicinal properties. remained as flow- ers. Lilac remained for its beauty, and a few herbs, easily used, such as mint have continued to hold a place in some gardens. But the real herb garden, as such, has been virtually extinct for generations until the present re- vival. Among the herbs being revived are sperula, which al- 60 provides a wholesome beverage, rosemary, artemisia, mugwort, betony, anchusa and crocus. “Those used for -flavoring ere perhaps best known, and a full selection and use of these create meals that are better worth eat- ing and give the fillip to ordinary dishes that is the puz- zle and mystery of many eaten in foreign lands,” says the Home and Field writer. “Thyme, sage, coriander dried for seasoning, caraway for buns, sweet basil for soups, tarragon chopped for salads, fennel for fish sauce, mint for lamb or jelly, and parsley, dill and chives whose uses are legion.” Quaint claims were made for some of the herbs -by their growers in earlier days, which may be tested by the modern gardener. For example, artemisia placed under a child’s bed was supposed to make him dream happily. Betony was prescribed as “a powder for them that be fearful.” Anchusa was used “to preserve the mind, or to make folk merry.” The roots of catmint were especially potent, according to the legend of the ancient hangman ‘who could never arouse his nerve to the point of per- his duty until he had partaken of a meal of catmint root! ; The World Does Move ‘The late Senator “Bob” La Follette used to remark humcrously that most of the “ultra-radical” measures 7 2 . ultimately adopted by the conservatives who continued to look on him a& a dangerous theorist. What seems social- istic and subversive to one generation seems only com- mon sense to the next. Human notions change rapidly. All of this is called to mind by the fact that the con- ference of American governors at Salt Lake City the other day devoted a good share of its time to the dis- cussion of old age and unemployment pensions. A few years ago no one but @ group of socialists would have talked of such measures seriously. But now the governors of the individual states—surely a conservative enough crowd, taken collectively—give these matters their attention, and no one gets in the least alarmed. Our children, very likely, will be equally hospitable to some of the things that we today look on as revolutionary and dangerous. The world—though we don't always realize it—docs move. Faith in Planes Increased It is a little bit hard to join hands with those solemn commentators on current events who profess to be ter- ribly, terribly bored by the record-breaking endurance flight of the Hunter brothers in their City of Chicago air- plane. To be sure, these people are probably quite correct when they point out that the value of this feat to avia- tion is practically nil. They are probably correct when they say it is simply a “stunt,” promoted for personal gain by young men who might better have been doing something more useful. They are probably correct in complaining that this flight will breed other endurance flights, so that every idle aviator in the land will be buying a basket of sandwiches and sailing off in the ef- fort to keep away from the ground longer than anyone else has done. ‘These things are very likely perfectly true; yet, for all that, we have a vague feeling that these tired, nerve- wracked young flyers have fully earned all the plaudits and all the money that they are going to get. | ‘Their flight wasn’t really useful? Well, a great many citizens of this republic find themselves in callings that deserve the same comment .... There is, for instance, the business of writing editorials for newspapers and magazines .... Besides, there is a good bit of unem- ployment in the land, and we often tend to go in for efficiency a little too strongly anyhow, So why shouldn’t four brothers set out to break the endurance flight rec- ord if they feel like it? men staying off of the earth for upwards of 19 days. may be used to it, but it is a sort of miracle, none the less. No living human being ever did it before. Even to have dreamed of such a thing a century ago would have marked a man as being in league with the devil. Furthermore, the young flyers did, after all, risk their lives. Piloting an airplane calls for keen, steady nerves, clear eyes and a sound physique, unless the army and navy and Department of Commerce are all wrong in their requirements. When you read of those leds drink- ing quarts of black coffee in a frantic effort to stay awake, and taking their airplane around through the darkness while they fought off fatigue, tired muscles and | frayed nerves, you cannot help admiring them. On top of all of: this, moreover, is the fact that this sort of thing does have a practical value for aviation, despite the complaints of the’ critics. We need planes that are so dependable that they can almost be treated with contempt. Every endurance flight of. this kind proves—and the proof is needed—that we are beginning to get that sort of planes. When two men can take an ordinary plane and keep it off the ground for more than a fortnight, the capabilities of the average airplane must | be pretty high. | To sum it all up, we think these Hunter- brothers de- \ serve the applause and the money their flight has*won for them. ‘These lofty criticisms of their achievements give us a bit of a pain. | Editorial Comment | Cities Congestion Grows (American Mercury) ‘The terrible drain on the time and energy of people in going to work is inevitable in large cities and increases almost directly as the size of the city increases. Further- more, our in the United States holds out no hope that better transportation will solve the problem., New York, for all its subway building, is far more congested today than it was twenty years ago. The Atua- tion in most other large cities ts not essentially different, although there are, of course, differences in the degree of congestion. Everywhere it grows worse year by year and péople spend more time on more crowded conveyances and from their work in more crowded offices. Another cause of this differential cost of doing business the extreme slowness of street districts.

Pioneers (Minneapolis. Journal) 1 ‘What is it to be a pioneer? Thé dictionary has it “one | who goes before to remove and prepare the way for others.” This is the light in which, until now, the northwest has regarded the first settlers of this region. , they went before; assuredly, they removed obstacles and prepared the way for all who have come were, then, who endured hardship and privation to settle Minnésota and the Dakotas. Their ve dragged through mud or mere excuses for roads. Their ox teams plodded over slow milés as sup- plies were so micpheeeast the Sonebeaits mee could raise for thethselves. ur common experience was one of self sacrifice, of tion, of compulsary self reliance, either as. individ of as tiny communities. ‘The sod house was a habitation of the prairie, the log cabin the dwelling of the woods. Over Minnesota and the Dakotas hundfeds and then thousands struggled for foothold, and won it. ‘That victory of these pioneers over privation and isola- niversary fest they should be proud. : Soon, however, pioneering will have another meaning, or at least another application. The settler of the log cabin or the sod house will have faded befote the pioneers who prepared another, more complicated way. Pioneers will be those who came before the automobile, as their progenitors did before the railroad; they, in turn, will give way to the pioneers who antedated the airplane; ‘and who knows what else will have come to make - tive the existence of generations that’ thought t! dwellers in an era of marvels? Pioneers are of their time. Each generation does its own pioneering, and no sing:> one in terms of its pred- cesssors. These communities that are celebrating their pioneers’ achievement do well to mark their years. For thay ere of a kind the norghwest will hever known agin, Oven in relative terms. iS another day.

Chummy sat in her chair Ike a lovely doll. Judy had made the room as clean as she could. There were two bright-col- ored shawis pinred on the drab walls. She had recklessly invested in eight yellow jonquile, which brought sunshine into the dingy place. The kettle was singing on the fire. Listening with all hér ears. Judy caught light. hurried footsteps on the stairs. She went out on the landing. ‘The great moment had arrived. Judy's face was white in the light of a naked gas jet. She wore a little black frock, very short in the skirt and slecves, and low in the neck, showing that lovely, innocent curve of throat and shoulder that artists raved abcut. A string of red beads hung about her waist. Her thin stockings consisted chiefly of darns, and the cheap, exaggerat- ed shoes could not disguise her per- fect feet. Footsteps sounded on the stairs. It seemed to her that they Icgged. Dumont appeared first, his com- panion half a flight behind him. Judy devoured his appearance with her bright, excited eyes. This was Chummy's young man. How often she had wondered what he looked like! How often she had wondered at the fidelity of a heart that could be plunged into dark- ness by the disappearance of any man on earth! ia Her mind was too feverish to grasp details. She got an impres- sion of @ tall figure and a band: some faca, which struck her par- ticularly with its supreme fitness. Alan Steyne looked strong and energetic enough to jump over the moon, she thought. Hig eyes held them—and 8 fair, and was very tanned. He looked as if he always got what he wanted. Those were Judy's fitet impressions. He addressed her in a voice whose naturally careless ting was contradicted by the anxious look in his eyes. “Miss Grant, do you really think it Is wise for me to see Miss Morey tonight? Dumont has told me every: thing. I am eo dreadfully sorry, but—I mean, oughtn’t she to be pre- pared?” He broke off, looking at her help- lessiy: Judy shook her head, and the mop of red-gold hair glittered like @ bright waterfall. “It's Bo good preparing her,” she answercd quickly. “I've tried and tried.

You know, she may not—” “Judy!” came Chummy’s voice from inside the room, “Where are you? Why are you such a long time? I'm cold.” Judy went to the half-open door, beckoning to the men to follow her. She saw Alan Steyne close his lips tightly and square his shoulders. Inside the room Chummy sat in the chair by the small fire, It was the only chair fit for anybody to sit in, She hada pale-blue woolen shawl around her shoulders, and it tet off her fair’ loveliness so that she looked like an angel on an old- fasbioned Christmas card. =, “Here is—some ons to see you, Chummy, dear,” said Judy in a choked voice. Alan Steyne stood in front of the girl who had lost her wits for love of him. He stood there, awkward ‘and {ll at ease, with deep concern in his eyes. Clarissa Morley smiled up blank- ly into his face. Then she blew her nose. After that there was a dreadful use. “Say something—speak to her!” commanded Judy in @ tense whisper. “Clarissa!” said Alun Steyne. “Clarissa, dou't you koow me? J havé come back!” Chummy smiled again. | “Handsome boy!” she said sweet- ly. “I like you. Very handsome doy!” ‘ ‘The thres looked at cach other.

Judy, make the beef tea at once!” Judy went out of the room to fetch cups from a cupboard in her box of an attic. She looked at Du- mont as she passed him. Her eyes spoke plainly: “He can’t make love to her while we're there.” Dumont followed her. and her lover were alone. They were an unconscionable time fetching the cups and the bis- cuits. When they came back, Steyne had moved nearer to Chum- my, and she was looking more like an angel than eve! “I like this boy,” she said, laugh- ing with a purring gound. “We are going to be great friends.” They drank beef tea and ate bis- cuits, and smoked and laughed, and nobody would have known that Judy had not enough money in her purse to buy their food on the mor row. It was ten o'clock before Steyne took his leave. Dumont went with him. Chummy smiled radiantly at Alan, and asked him to come again. The other three felt very queer, as if they had spent an hour in unreal land. Judy dismissed the men with a joke; but Chummy stood in front of the girl who had lost her wits for love of him. . . . Clarissa Morley smiled up blankly into his face. “What are we to do?” asked Judy's purple eyes. “What are we to do?” asked Bastien Dumont's black eyes. “What am I to do?” asked Alan Steyne’s blue eyes. ‘There was nothing to do. Chum- my did not know her lover. To her he was only a handsome boy— one of the many she met and talked to and smiled at every day. Chummy loved men and boys; she always said so with her sweet com- placency. ‘There was aijénce. Alan Steynes’ hard breathing could be heard. Chummy went on smiling, and blew her nose again. “He's a very handsome boy,” said. “And I like him, but I do: know bim, Judy.” She looked at the yot man and asked incon- sequently: “Is it eold out? Won't you come to the fire and have some beef ten?” eg? Abn STEYNE advanced, and Judy pointed to a broken-down |basket chair, into which he care fully lowered himself. “Yes, it is cold,” he said. He had one of the nicest voices Judy had ever heard. “I should love some beef tea. But are you sure you don’t remember me, Clarissa? I am Alan. Don’t you remember, at the Cafe Turc very night? What fun those days were! I was nearly starving—and you painted so beautifully! And we used to walk in Central Park. Surely you must remember, Claris- sa?” Not a trace of enlightenment came into Chummy’s face. “Did you come to the cafe long ago?” she ccked. “I dare say. 1 Erew euch lots of beys and men at she felt very flat and tame as she went back to Chummy. eee BOUT ten minutes later Chum- my was in bed and asleep, with her flaxen plaits lying like silvery cables on the pillow. Judy shut the door softly and went out upon the landing oa her way to her own room. Light, firm footsteps on the stair made her pause, and Steyn ran up, slightly breathless. With one hand he took off his tywt, with the other he drew something from his overcoat pocket. “I say.” he said very rapidly, “I do hope you won't mind, Miss Grant —I mean my coming back; but I wanted—well, Dumont told me ‘about poor Miss Morley, you know |—about her condition, and what an angel you've been to her. Of course it isn’t fair, and as an old friend of hers I want you.to take this— for her, you know, to get her things she wants—nice things to eat, and clothes, and all that. Please do say you're not offended!” He hold out some bank notes. Judy flushed crimson. She was a regular little Lucifer in her pride, but for Chummy’s sake she an- swered with a spasm of gratitude, © clutching at the notes and holdigg them as if they burned her. “I mustn't say no, of course. I’m not offended. It’s for Chummy, and seeing that you're going to marry her it’s only right. Of course, I know it’s been rotten for her bere. She's not like me or like lots of our little crowd—she’s a lady, and all that. I suppose you'll want to take her away at once and put her in some nice place until you're married.” Stey: murmured something more about her goodness to her friend. : “T've done nothing more thar any of us would do,” Judy answered warmly, “We all love Chummy. We're all Chummy’s friends—every ‘ons of us.” The young man smiled and held out his hand. Judy looked a little abashed as she laid hers in it. “Good night, Httle guardian,” Alan said: “May we meet soon!” Judy’s hand lay snugly in his close, firm grip. 1t was only a mo- ment, but it scemed a very, very long time before he released her and turned and went clatterins down the stone stairs.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Anemia Queston: J. V. D. writes: “A mem- ber of my family is suffering from anemia. She complains that her limbs from the knees down feel just like wood. Is this a usual symptom? What will relieve this condition?” Answer: You did not say whether the trouble is primary or secondary anemia, but the symptoms you de- scribe are more like those of primary or pernicious anemia. This is too serious a condition to be prescribed for in this column, but I will be glad to send special information on the subject of primary anemia if you will send me your full name and address on a large stamped envelope. Buttermilk Question: T. writes: “Should but- termilk be taken with meals, or should it be taken as a meal in it- self?” Answer: Buttermilk should not be taken with the ordinary meal, but should be used by itself or in combi- nation with any one of these fruits: Figs, dates, raisins or prunes. Germs and Goitre Question: W. R. writes: “Was told I have a goitre, but my neck is not large—you cannot see any evidence of it. I am afraid that it may become » however, and would like to know how I could kill the germ be- fore it takes effect.” Answer: The exophthalmic goitre does not show much except to make the eyes protrude. You may suffer from hyperthyroidism, the diagnosis of which must be accomplished most- ly by studying symptoms, as the j@tand does not appear to change in shape in most cases. All forms of goitre are caused from the effect of bodily toxins, and the cure depends upon the elimination of these poisons.
