FARM PRICE UP,
BUT NOT ENOUGH
Prices of farm products have ad
vanced tremendously since last year,
leading some citizens to think that
at last, the farmer is getting abreak
There is no need to be misled how
ever the prices of things that the
farmers buy have also advanced and
the gain has been, on the average,
more than that of agricultural pro
ducts. The spread between prices of
what the farmer sell and what they;
buy has not decreased, much less |
been abolished.
We mention this fact because of
our conviction that permanent pros
perity in the United States is an im-'
possibility until agricultural becomes j
profitable and the millions dependent
upon farming have buying power with]
which to purchase the products of
our factories.
This moves us to the next question
whether the United States should
seek foreign markets for the export
surplus of wheat, cotton and other
farm crops. As Secretary Wallace
has so excellently set out, the nation
must decide whether it is to pursue
a nationalistic or an internatioirrl.
course. Under the former we must,
if we desire agricultural prosperity,
remove from cultivation millions of
acres of lands. Under the latter, we
must, for the same reason allow for
eign nations to sell ns good in order
to buy our products.
Swallows Hold Secret
of Their Winter Home
Exactly where the swallows spend
the winter is their own secret. Many
students of birds (ornithologists) be
lieve that they go to some island near
South America. So fur, however, no
one has definitely located their winter
home. They start going southward in
July—which is earlier than most
birds.
it is evident that birds know when
it is time to migrate, and when to re
turn to us. They also know where
they are going; for certain birds will
return season after season to the same
vine on the veranda of a home, arriv
ing on llie same day of the month
each year. Tills fact has been estab
iished by placing numbered bands on
birds’ legs before they migrate.
It is nothing less than marvelous
that they are able to know when to
travel, where to go, and bow to get
there and return. Gene Stratton l’or
ter. a great nature student and writer,
once said, “What determines the pre
rise minute of their starting to come
to us or to leave us, or bow they fol
low llieir trackless path high in air
across seas and continents mostly un
dor cover of darkness, we do uot
know.”
One fact seems obvious: that some
force or inlliience takes possession of
their actions at these times and that
they cannot help doing what they do.
Some call this "instinct.” and ottiers
call it “subconscious mind." —Missouri

Compass r.'cetlle Can Ca
Li3tractcd From Fol s
The coast and geodetic survey says
at numerous places on the earth there
are disturbances of the magnetic con
dition which is normal to the region
so that the compass needle is turned
out of the direction which it could be
expected to make there, in a small
area near Juneau, Alaska, values of
declination ranging from 175 degrees
west to 17(1 degrees east were ob
served where about 31 degrees 30 min
utes east would be expected, and at
one spot the dip was S!) degrees 50.4
minutes, and the compass needle lost
its directive property, so that tlie dec
lination was -indeterminate. Here the
disturbing material was evidently
quite near the surface and limited in
extent, as the effect disappeared with
in a few miles of the point of maxi
mum disturbance. At Port Snetti
sliam. Alaska, there is an area of
marked local disturbance which ex
tends beyond the land nearly across
the adjacent deep inlet. In the pro
vince of Kursk, Russia, there is a not
able region of local disturbance ex
tending for about 209 kilometers in u
north west-southeast direction.
Women Inventcrs
While the lirst American invention
was patented by a man, the records
further state that the process was
"found out by Syhille, his wife.” This
patent was granted by the British
government to Thomas Masters for an
invention for cleaning and curing
Indian corn. For 1!) years after the
enactment of the patent law. in 1790.
not a single one of the 10,600 patents
issued was granted to a woman. The
first successful application from a
woman was recorded in ISO 9. and was
for a method of weaving straw with
silk or thread Even for a quarter of
a century afterward there were less
than a score of patents granted to
women.
List to Choose From
“I have checked up almost ‘57 va
rieties' of places for a public speaker
to park his hands," writes Dr. John
F. Cowan. “In pockets—trousers,
coat, vest; upper pockets, lower, rear;
hung by thumbs or ’immersed’; hooked
in vest armholes; clasped across tum
my. ditto hack; wadding handkerchief,
and unwadding; clenching lapels of
coat: pounding desk; brushing hair,
slapping (camouflaged) at flies; full
arm gesture, half-arm, finger; point
ing at audience; twisting mustache;
fingertips together uplifted; fumbling
papers; pulling down vest; snapping,
nnd. when nut otherwise emphasizing
the truth, sawing imaginary wood In
the air.”—Christian Register.
Big Animal, Tiny Victim
The aardvark, an animal which ap
pears like something seen In a de
lirium is as ridiculous in Its eating
habits as it is in appearance. The
full grown ant-bear as it is commonly
called or earth-pig as its name trans
lates literally, is about live feet long
from tip to tail. It has a long snout
and strong claws which it uses in bur
rowing into ant hills. Having wrecked
a hill, the aardvark licks up the ants
with Its tongue. It seems absurd for
so large an animal to feed on so small
an insect, but that seems to be its
main purpose in life. Its food is al
most entirely Insect and its habits
nocturnal.
Identifying Diamonds
Diamonds in the rough, as they come
from the ground, may be any color, but
diamonds in this state generally have
a greasy luster like pieces of glass
covered with vaseline. They must be
cut and polished before the color and
brilliance is brought out. The sparkle
of the diamond is caused by the re
fraction of light from the facets of the
diamond, and these do not appear
naturally, hut must he cut. It would
he difficult for an nmateur to distin
guish a diamond as it came from the
ground, and any mined product of this
kind should be tested hy experts in
order to determine its true value.
