28,240 Deaths In
Auto Crashes In
The Last Year
Washington, D. C.—Fewer deaths
from automobile accidents were re
ported Saturday by the Census Bu
reau to have occurred last year than
during the previous two years.
Total deaths, excluding Utah for
which data had not been received,
were 28,240, at the rate of 23.6 for
each 100,000 of population.
There were 32,429 deaths, a rare
ol 27.2, in 1931 and 31,678 deaths,
a rate of 26.9, in 1930.
The highest rate last year was in
Nevada with 64.5 per 100,000 popu
lation. California was next with 39.6.
Both states showed smaller rates than
the previous year.
North Dakota reported the lowest
rate, 8.6 per 100,000 of population.
Mississippi was second with 11.8.
NO FREE GIFTS
Considerably enheartened by the
fact that the government agreed to
pay them for plowing up their cotton,
southern farmers are now discourag
ed because of the increase in price
of cotton goods. The increase in
goods is occasioned by the processing
tax, which was levied to pay the far
mers for the cotton plowed up, and
to take care of the increases in mill
wages. The fly in the ointment, of
course, is the fact that the price cf
the goods is all out of proportion
with the price of cotton.
There is one immutable fact that
all of us should take into ccounf.
The government does not and cannot
give us anything. The only method the
government has for raising money is
through taxation.
Much of our national burden-%
attributed to so-called “donations"
cf various kinds—building new post
offices where they are not needed,
deepening river channels which wili
never amount to anything, and in di
verse doles to different classes.
We repeat, the government has ni
treasure chest into which it can reach
and draw out sums for distribution
to Tom, Dick and Harry. Each citi
zen as an individual unit of the gov
ernment is forced to pay his part of
the tribute that the government im
poses for taking care of all expendi
tures that are made. —Sylvester Lo

The Progress-Argus
Shall Harvest Always
Shower Its Blessings?
I have often thought how wonder
fully this age has been blessed and
prospered, when In a single lifetime
it has progressed from the bare sickle,
past cradle, mowing machine, reaper,
self-binders up to the combine, which
does away with flail, hand-fan, thresh
ing machine, fanning mill by its single
operation! In the last sixty years we
have gone farther in our harvesting
than in all the thousands of years that
had gone by since Abraham gathered
wheat on the hillsides of Canaan for
Sarah and Hagar to grind by hand,
“The Observer” writes in the Montreal
Family Herald. Our wheat, too, has
become a very different thing from
the stubby ears, two on a stem usu
ally, of the small grained wheat which
Joseph knew and grew in the land of
Egypt. Think of the millions of tons
of food we have taken out of the
ground, since that great flood of which
every nation has preserved some rec
ollection. And still we have harvests
and take more nitrogenous grain and
other foods from the soil! Will man
kind always be able to do so, do you
suppose? Is there danger of earth and
air and sea failing to give us the ma
terials for building up wheat, and
dairy products? Have we any natural
reason for believing that no change
is possible, that what has been, always
will be? Faith is an amazing thing, is
it not?
Question Scots’ Claim
to Haggis “Discovery”
At Burns’ suppers all over the world
the haggis occupies the place of honor
on the festive board. But the ‘‘great
chieftain o’ the puddin’-race,’’ as
Burns called it, may be not so purely
Scots as most people think.
The French claim to have invented
it, and say that it was introduced into
Scotland by Mary Queen of Scots.
There Is certainly a French cookery
book that contains a Sixteenth-century
recipe very similar to that now used
for the making of haggis.
But if we are to go to old cookery
books for evidence, the English can
put in a claim, too. Haggis is men
tioned in three volumes all of which
were produced in England in the Fif
teenth century, and one of them, dat
ed 1420, gives a recipe.
Whoever invented it the demand for
haggis shows no sign of falling off.
Even in far-off Calcutta, Shanghai and
Sarawak, Scots insist on it, and sup
plies are sent out regularly from home.
And at one St. Andrew’s dinner in
London last year 500 pounds of haggis
was eaten. —Exchange.
Two Great Webster*
Webster’s dictionary was the work
of Noah Webster, born in 1758 at
Hartford, Conn. He was a graduate
of Yale and after being admitted to
the bar, devoted himself chiefly to lit
erary work, producing his Spelling
Book in 1783. He commenced his Amer
ican dictionary of the English Lan
guage in 1807; the first edition of this
was published In 1828, with a total of
70,000 words. It contained 12,000
more words and 40,000 more defini
tions than any earlier English diction
ary. He was also a judge, a member of
the state legislature and a founder of
Amherst college. He died in 1843
Daniel Webster had no connection with
the making of this dictionary. He was
born In New Hampshire in 1782 and
so far as can be determined was not
related In any way to Noah Webster.
Anthrax Hard to Eradicate
In addition to being very virulent,
anthrax is particularly bad because
of the difficulty in eradicating it com
pletely from infected premises. The
anthrax bacteria have the ability to
produce spores which are exceedingly
resistant to disinfectants, weather, or
other agencies. These spores may live
in the soli or elsewhere for as long as
25 years, and when taken into the
bodies of cattle, sheep or other ani
mals may produce anthrax. In fact,
the first real outbreak of anthrax In
Minnesota, occurring at Montevideo
In 1920, was traced to a single farm
on which the disease had been intro
duced 12 years before, through some
animals which died during shipment
from South Dakota.
t
How Old Custom Began
On March 11 of each year the tour
ist at Newark, England, will take note
of the thousand penny loaves of bread
which are given away at the town hail
and wonder why. During the English
civil war in 1643 one Hercules Clay
dreamed three nights running that his
house was on fire. Accepting the
warning, he removed his family
promptly, and no sooner were they in
their new home than the gunners' of
the Parliamentary array dropped a
bomb on the old dwelling. Ever since
a thousand loaves have been distribut
ed annually to commemorate the es
cape of Hercules Clay, though many
have doubted the story of his dreams.
The Home
The true angel of the home Is not
Justice, but charity. You may collect
a household, but you cannot build a
home on mere justice. The home as
an institution will not exist a single
day without llie presence of that which
“beareth all things, iiopeth all things,
endurcth all things." Like unexpected
dowers which spring up along our
path, full of freshness, fragrance, and
beauty, so kind words and gentle acts
and sweet dispositions make glad the
sacred S|hm called home; and the heart
will ever turn longingly towards It
from all the turn nil of the world.—K
Dresser.
