MAN IS TO BLAME
If our women are unbalanced or
unseated or out of place, what is
the cause? Who Is to blame? Who
brought about this change? There
Is but one answer. Her God-de
creed protector Is to blame. Man
is wholly responsible.
Woman’9 place is home. Her
throne Is the domestic circle. She
didn't leave It of her own volition.
She didn’t sacrifice her place volun
tarily. Man Is wholly responsible
for the unbalanced condition of
woman. It Is his business to pro
vide and protect. And It Is his
business to exercise the righteous
discipline necessary to a perfect
home.
He Ims utterly failed. He has
failed through indulgence, because
of a lack of courage, a sense of re
sponsibility,. and a willingness to
face his plain dnty. He has prac
ticed Indulgence until, he has made
the woman extremely extravagant.
The average girl.hates work, de
spises domestic responsibility, and
is criminally conspiring to avoid
those high duties.
The man has neglected to build
the home, to make It attractive and
magnetic. Consequently, the woman
has gone out into the world. Many
of them because of necessity have
b?en forced Into the trades to live.
Many of them have gone out Into the
world because the head of the fam
ily did not perform his duty, did
not make the home happy, did not
regulate it
Women have been thrown into
the nerve-wracking conditions of the
outer world and the strain Is too
great, her nerves are unsettled; she
is unbalanced. Her unbalanced
-condition has produced a state of
extravagance, which Is jeopardizing
the who}? domestlo life of America.
If fathers do not go back to their
homes, and husbands do' not per
■ form their duties) as heads of their
families, the domestic life of Amer
ica will suffer Irreparably.

Capital City ElxpeeU 400,0«0 Viaiters
to the Annual Imperial Session
There Next Month.
Washington, May 17.—Members of
the Shrine, their wives and children
are already pouring into the capita!
of the nation to attend the annual
imperial council session, which is to
be held in June.
Fev; who are Coming have any #r.n
ception of the magnitude of the
gatheringaand less, as yet, sense the
great importance of this convention
to the country at large.
For no other conventi:n, no f other
event of any kind, has ever drawn to
r the capital of the nation so large a
crowd of people, or from s> ( many
sections of the country- At an in
auguration of a president, thousands
come, for a day, but here will be
hundreds of thousands for a week or
mjro. «
Th 3 country does not know well its
Washington, or its government. And
there will be 400,000 visitors, from
every state , and every city in
the union, spending a week or
more visiting and learning es the
government machinery which they
provide to govern themselves; the
effects can not help but be far reach
ing and lasting, and infinitely more
important socially, politically , and
govern men thlly, than the delibera
tion of the order which draws the
thr:ng together, be their magnitude
what it may.
The more we Americans know of
our country, the better we love it;
the more we know of mir govern
ment, the more interest ws take in
it, the better we make it.
The educational feature of a trip
to Washington has always been con
sidered weH worth while, for and by
the individual. The educational ef
fect cf .eo massed a gathering of in
dividuals of so absolutely represen
tative a type, can only be guessed,
but it must work out to the great
advantage «rs us all, fn spreading
through the country a better concept
tioa of what, nationally, the capital
city and its governmental mechanism
really is.

CHAMBERLAIN’S
COLIC and DIARRHOEA
REMEDY
Ready- lor emergency - night or day.
The Man Behind the Carburetor
Sydney Anderson, of Minnesota, Chairman of the Joint
Committee of Agricultural Enquiry, which recently made an in
vestigation of the various factors entering into the marketing of
farm products, makes it clear that the fads of the city folk
and their demand for constant change and variety play quite
a part in the seemingly low prices paid to farmers for original
products.
In the case of a package of rolled oats retailing for 20 cents
which the original producer sold for 32 cents a bushel, the fol
lowing proportions appear: The retailer got 4.2 cents, of which
3.2 cents represented expenses of doing business and 1 cent
his profit. The wholesaler received 1.8 cents of which .3 was
profit. The manufacturer got 9.6 cents of which 2 cents were
profit, 1.2 cents taxes, 1.6 cents transportation, 1.7 cents adver
tising, 1.3 cents selling cost, and 1.8 cents cost of manufacture.
The elevator which handled the oats got .4 cents and the rail
road .5 and the farmer 3.5.
Fair-minded men will see injustice in this price to the
farmer, yet no one seems to have made extortionate profit at his
expense.
n It is well, to<s, to consider the effect on prices of the great
variety of goods of a like kind demanded by the public. There
are countless thousands of brands of all kinds of goods multi
plied by the consumer to the point of absurdity. This means
large stocks must be carried by retailers, and capital tied up,
all of which the consumer has to pay.
The fanner may be exploited by the trader, but the people
plainly are exploiting themselves.
People Are Exploiting Themselves
Conservative estimates place the number of motor vehicles
on the farms as 3,500,000, not counting motor driven farm ma
chinery. There are at least 300,000 trucks and not less than
3,200,000 automobiles, used by the farmers,
Considered in the light of general production, these figures
present a startling picture. In the background we can see in
addition to the xarmers’ use of the car the millions of automo
biles absorbed by the residents of the small towns where prac
tically every one owns a ear. Obviously, the market for the
motor lies in the country, and, obviously, too, the astounding
growth of motor car absorption is a lasting tribute to the useful
ness of the home town newspaper which has been the only means
of contact—except the sporadic scattering of a few magazines—
between the motor car manufacturers and the great American
population living in country America.
No industry in history has shown the rapid and enormous
growth shown by the motor car industry, all of which has been
largely due to the vision of the industrial geniuses who have
brought" about this transformation of our travel system. They
were all bom in the country. They knew what contact with
country solk meant, and they have made persistent and consist
ent use of the home town newspapers to carry their message to
the buyers.

VISIBLE SUPPLY OF COTTON
NEARING VANISHING POINT
New York, May 12.—Answering
inquiries from our abuthem friends,
regarding mill curtailment, eight
Fail River mills stopped work for
two days this week, reopening Mon
day.
The remaining supply of cotton is
so small that the mills of the world
using American cotton will have to
curtain their operations to an aver
age of about four days per week for
the next four months. Last year
about this time, Fall River mills
were closed on account of strikes
and lockouts. Every effort was be
ing made to reduce expenses. Un
employment existed. Foreign affairs
were as unsettled as now and yet
cot sumpticn of American cotton,
according to Hester, was 12,804,000
for the year.
This season for nine months, end
ing April 30th, consumption was on
a basis of 13,500.000 bales. Sep
tember 15th is about the earliest
that new cottcn can reach the mills.
Assume that consumption is cut to
a yearly basis of 12,000.000 bales for
the r.ext four months and mills will
require 4,500,000 plus stocks earoute
to mills, 1,500.(100 a total of SOOO,-
COO baies. To meet this need, on
May Ist, American and foreign
mills had about 2.450,000 plus the
visible 1,815,000, plus uncounted
towns and on farms 800,090, a total
of 5,065 000. Thus by curtailing
f rom a 13,500.000 bale to a 12,000,-
010 bale basis, mills will still need
moro cotton thare exists.
Nowhere do we hear the assertion
that consumption will be on a yearly
basis below 10,0C#,000 bales, and yet
that is what must happen during the
next fjrnr months to make the sup
ply last.
The world urgently needs a mini
mum crop of 13,000,000 bales next
season. The new crop averages
abcut two weeks late and is starting
poorly. The best reports are from
;Texas.
Vic strongly advise our southern
'friends to refrain from pressing
their cotton for sale. Every bale
w‘ll be badly needed before new cot
ton will be ready for market. Our
advices are that the Cooperative As
sociation have withdrawn their cot
ton from sale.
Yours truly,
J. W. JAY & CO.

of the public highways, especially in

Busy people and good roads are the
