explosives in case of war.
Mr. Rogers remarks that such a
plant lying idle is enlightening. It
means that the Government isn't
quite ready to deliver the plant over

And until the power trust net* it,
that trust won't let anybody else

Thanks to Mussolini’., common
sense, a new law compels mer
chants in Italy to mark priees
plainly and stick to the prices.
That will increase foreign buying,
especially by Americans, who do not
like to pay double or devote half

Merchants in Italy won't like it,
but their business and prosperity will
increase.
Machinery will he deviwd

automobiles, no longer will do.
But nothing should be done too
suddenly, unless the Government is
willing to precipitate hard times over
a wide area.

There is just a line about the moth

birth, she gave her blood in transfus

POEM WRITTEN BY SIDNEY
LANIER IN 1670
The following poem written by
Sidney Lanier ir 1870 suggesting
diversified farming was sent with re
quest to publish. We are glad to
reproduce it.
Jong’s Private Argymont
That air same Jones, which lived in
Jones,
He had this pint about him:
He'd swear with a hundred sighs and
groans,
That farmers must stop gittin’ loans.
And git along without ’em:
That bankers, warehousemen, and
sich
Was fatt ’nin’ on the planter,
And Tcnnessy was rotten-rich
A-raisin' meat and corn, all which
Draw’d money to Atlanta:
And the only thing (says Jones) to
do
Is, eat no meat that’s boughten:
But tear up every I, O, U,
And plant all com and swear for
true
To quit a-raisin’ cotton!
Thus spouted Joney (whar folks
could hear,
At Court and other gatherin’s).
And thus kep' spoutin’ many a year,
Proclaimin' loudly far and near
Sich fiddlesticks and blath-
But, one all-fired sweatin’ day,
It happened I was hoein’
My lower corn-field, which it lay
’Loqgside the road that ru.is my way
Whar I can see what's goin’.
And a’ter twelve o’clock had come
I felt a kinder faggin,’
And laid myself un’neath a plum
To let my dinner settle sum,
When long comes Jones’s wag-
Bin,
And Jones was setting’ in it so
Charles Abrams, of Chicago, went
for a stroll with his $600 German
police dog trailing on a leash. When
he got homg he had a mongrel.
Somewhere along the route thieves
had taken his valuable dog und plac
cd the cur in the leash without
Abram’s knowledge of the act.

A-readin’ of r paper.
His mules was goin’ powerful slow.
Four be had tied the lines onto
The staple of the scraper.
The mules they stopped about a rod
From me, and went to feedin’
'Longside the road, upon the sod,
But Jones (which he had tuck a tod)
Not knowin,’ kept a-readin.’
And presently says he: “Hit’s true:
That Clisby’s head is level.
Thar’s one thing farmers all must
To keep themselves from goin’ tew
Bankruptcy and the devil!
“More com! more corn! must plant
less ground,
And mustn't eat what’s bought-

Next year they'll do it: reasonin')

(And cotton will fetch ’bout a dollar
a pound),
Tharforc, I'll plnnt all cotton!”

but with that exception, it agreed to
