B. Boyle, professor of rural economy at Cor- nell University, which shows that milk is by far the greatest farm product in value. In value per capita of population the figures are as follows: Milk, $25.23; corn, $15.91; hogs, $14.21; cotton, $11.06; hay, $10.39; poultry, $10.09; wheat, $8.53. “crop” is nearly equal tothe corn and cot- ton crop combined, and greater than those of corn and wheat combined. The:eovisumption of dairy products, including milk, butter, cheese and ice eream, is rapidly increasing, due to the education of the public of their food and health value. Dairying, combined with hog and poul- try raising, should be an important feature of every farmer’s program. WITHOUT A PRESIDENT It may not be generally known that every four years the United States is with- out a president for several hours, but such is the fact. The term of the outgoing president expires at- midnight on March:3 and the new president is usually sworn in about noon the following day. During the intervening hours the country’ i ‘With: out a chief executive. The question of whether a vacati¢y ex- isted during this interval was. discussed early in the history of the country. In re- sponse to an inquiry, Chief Justice John Marshall wrote on February 21, 1821: “There has been uniformly and volun- ‘tarily an interval of 12 hours during which the executive power could not be exercised.” If an emergency demanded, the new president could be sworn in immediately after his predecessor’s term expired at mid- night on March 3, but no situation has ever existed to make this necessary. LEARNING AT OLD AGE | Another ancient idea which is said to have been refuted by scientific research is the belief that soon after reaching matur- ity one’s ability to learn is seriously lessen- ed. After a long series of experiments Dr. ‘Sorenson of the University of Minnesota declares that one may learn as rapidly at 50 as at 15. To those who have had the will to learn in later life, this is nothing new. It is suspected that the plea, “too old to learn,” was invented by someone -who.,was teo indifferent or too lazy to try. Persons who have attained success in any calling involving much mental ‘effort have been obliged to go on learning from year to year in order to keep abreast with new ddévelopments and discoveries. Many have changed to an entirely new line of work and have won distinction in it after reaching middle age. Because of rapidly changing condi- tions in a civilization which is becoming more and more complex, it will be even more necessary in the future than in the past that study be continued ‘during the (entire period of active life. SORRY eae: DO YOUR PART NOW”: - 2A “Production, continued production, «is necessary if our manufacturing plants are to keep men employed. Buying power must be used. Only through consumption whieh demands increased production can payrolls be built up. No plant can con- tinue to operate beyond consumer demand. A dollar spent now for building does two things. It helps the construction in- dustry puts back to work thousands of skill- ed and unskilled workers; it buys needed materials now cheaper then they can be bought later. Even though the cost is now higher than it was a few months ago, this merely proves that costs are increasing. To save money and create. jobs, act now. Statistics show a shortage of over $1. 000,000 houses. This figure is based 6n'a definite survey in 257 cities. Millions of homes already built are sorely in need of modernizing—a concrete driveway, a base- ment, a paint job, a new roof, refurnish- ing. A dollar will buy more for you today, | do more for your country, than later. An- alyze your building needs. Ask yourself, “How can I best do my part?” The Hitler regime in Germany has been burning books. The question is whether they, burned the right ones, Thus it will be seen: that the dairy |’ a.
