They’re ready for recovery. They’ve had an important hand in legislation de- signed to bring it about. And they’re all | set to go now that it is coming. They’ve come through ten years of depression—yes, the farmer has had it for that time, as compared with three years for the rest of us—-with flying colors. They’ve labored mightily in the face of obstacles, | and they’ve produced results. More far- mers are organized—more farmers know what the cooperative plan is—more far-| mers are enthusiastic about its possibilities | —than ever before. | The groundwork has been done. And the job now is to build a stable structure on | top of it. The average farmer has at last learn- ed that non-cooperation is another word for sheriff’s sale. He must sell his products ; in highly or~*rized distributive channels. The buyer is going to buy at the lowest pos- sible price—the unorganized farmer takes | what is offered or goes without a sale. fair prices are possible only when the sell- ing and buying groups. meet on equal grcunds—-when the cooperatives face the middlemen.

A BIGGER ZEPPELIN In spite of the many disasters which | have befallen the largest dirigibles, Ger- | many is building another, which will be somewhat larger than the United States | Navy’s Macon, now the largest in the world. : | Come comparisons between the new German ship, to be temporarily known as | the LZ-129, and the Macon are given: Length over all, LZ-129, 812 feet; Macon 785 feet. Maximum diameter, LZ-129, 135.4 feet; Macon, 182.9 feet. Gas vol- ume, LZ-129, 7,062,800 cubic feet; Macon, 6,500,000 cubic feet. _ The new German ship is being built ;at the great construction plant at Fried- richshaven, and is expected to be complet- ed next spring. It will be the first for- eign dirigible to use helium gas. Of all nations, the United States and Germany are the only ones to continue building monster dirigibles in recent years. About the only dirigibles to survive for any considerable length of time are the Los Angeles and the Graf Zeppelin, both Ger- man built, the performances of the latter having been remarkable. How long it would last in war is a question. So far, it seems to us, the building of these giant airships has proved rather fu- tile, resulting in little except tragic losses in lives and money. But possibly man may find a way to build more dependable ones some day. TAX Gus yaad LOW Generally , sien’ a new tax is passed the estimates of-the amount: f revenue to be derived are téo high, ‘iA striking ex- ception: to this is.seen in the amount of. rev- enue détived’ftam:the sale of 8.2 percent beer, since it was declared: legal by Con- gress on April 7. ©“ 40a¢ that timethe.goverpment. officials predicted that the beer tax would yield between $100,000,000 and $125,000,000 to the national treasury in a year. But figures made public by the treasury department a few days ayo show that in the 15 weeks be- tween April 7 and July 31 the federal gov- ernment had received $54,119,739 in beer taxes, or approximately one-half of what was expected in a full year. In addition to this, the beer taxes re- ceived by states and other political subdi- visions have ~eached a very large sum, al- though no figures respecting this are at present available. As more and more | states legaiize the sale of beer, the revenue | derived from that source will naturally in- | crease. / aa 7] ae a KEY WEST IN ae { 1 DAYS GONE BY Happenings Here Just 10 Years Ago Today As Taken From The Files Of The Citizen The kindergarten of the public, schools of Monroe county will be located in the annex on Division* street school this year.
