U N R E S T A N D D I S C O N T E N T OF T H E PEOPLE W O R R Y T H E REPUBLICAN LEADERS. SECRET CONFERENCES HELD National Organization Won't Attempt to Direct t h e State Campaign*— Democrat* Not Yet Making Political Capital Out of Strike Trouble*. By JAMES P. H O R N A D A Y Washington.—The 1922 elections are approaching. In three months from now the country will have Indicated how it feels about a good many matters, some of nation-wide import, others of purely local Interest. The politicians would be happier If they had a better line on what is likely to happen. If surface Indications can be relied on, there are many cross currents to be reckoned with. The United States Is about the only country where people should be happy and contented, but a great many of them are not. Unrest is manifested in many ways. The season has brought bountiful agricultural crops, there is now work for nearly every man who wants work ; w a g e s are high compared with wages In other countries; the country Is at peace with all the world. And still there is disturbed state of mind. The Republican party is more concerned about the existing conditions than the Democratic party because, being the party in power In the federal government and In nearly all the states, It has much at stake. The peculiar situation received attention at a series of secret Republican conferences held at the headquarters of the party here recently. Many of the "best minds" of the party participated in these conferences. The situation in 15 or 20 northern states was examined by the party chieftains, and some 150 congressional districts received attention. Hard to Plan the Campaign. These conferences, according to persons who attended them, did not find It easy to decide on a plan of campaign that would obviously meet the situation. The representatives of the party who were called here have gone home with the understanding that the national organization will probably not attempt very much In the way of leadership in the campaign. Local conditions, it Is asserted, are so unusual that It Is deemed wise for each state organization to work out its own salvation, so to speak. The Democrats, who ulso maintain national headquarters here, have been conferring a good deal and while they are hopeful that things will come their way in November, they realize that no well-informed person would attempt at this time to prophesy as to what will happen on election day. The outstanding feature of the situation les* than three months before the people are to go to the polls, according to spokesmen for each of the national organizations, Is an unusual lack of interest among the masses of the people in purely partisan politics. Party leaders, it is asserted, are not acclaimed as they once were and In some sections of the country may consider tl emselves fortunate If they get a fair hearing. It Is not In evidence that this attitude of the voters generally is directed specially at either of the old political parties. Rather, according to the spokesmen for the two national organizations, it is an Indication of a growing tendency among voters to cut loose from purely political affiliations. No Real National issue. It appears now that there will not be eny outstanding national issues In the coming campaign, unless the tariff can be made such an Issue. The strategists in the two old parties are not disposed to get much excited about the tariiT. They are of the opinion that, generally speaking, the people are not likely to take the tariff Issue very seriously. The Harding administration will, of course, be up for Indorsement. Until recently the Republican leaders have regarded the Harding record as a big asset. Just now they are not certain as to the value they will be able to place on it when the campaign comes on. There has been criticism of the administration's handling of the Industrial situation, but the Republican politicians believe that in the end the country will approve the President's handling of the problem. The Democrats thus far have not been inclined to attempt to make any political capital out of the administration's handling of the strike situation. One decision reached by the Republicans In their series of conferences here this week was that an heroic effort will be made to overcome t h e feeling against the congress. The congress is, of course, a liability today. The Republican speakers who will go out Into the campaign will be under Instruct i n g to attempt to show that the record of the special session and of the regular session Is not as bad ns the puhllc has been led to believe. It was t h e n e n s e of the Republicans who came in for the week's conferences that the tariff legislation should be disposed of as quickly ns possible and that the c o n f e s s should adjourn by the middle of September. President Stick* Close to Job. President Harding has abandoned ail hope of getting a vacation this summer. Until very recently he had held on to a tentative plan for a rest of three or four weeks in N e w England. With so many problems pressing for solution, he has decided to remain here. H e was compelled to cancel plans for a vacation last summer because of the inability "of the congress to complete the work he had laid out for It. He has had 17 months In the White House without a real break. This surpasses the record of any President within the period of the present generation. Last spring the President made definite plans tor visiting Alaska this summer. H e w a s to have spent the entire month of August in the territory as the guest of Scott C. Bone, the territorial governor. But as the summer came on the congress was still on his hands and it became necessary to abandon the Alaskan trip. Following the cancellation of this plan, the tentative arrangements for a prolonged stay In New England were made. Then the miners' strike and the strike of railroad shopmen demanded the President's attention, and the general industrial situation became no unsatisfactory that it was deemed advisable to give up the plans for going to New England. T h e United States has had a good many hard-working Presidents, but not one of them put in more hours at hia desk than does President Harding. H e frequently gets over to the executive office before the clerical force reports for duty, and It Is a common thing for him to be at his desk until ten o'clock or eleven o'clock at night. This does not mean that he works these long hours without taking some time off during the day. Playa Golf In Early Morning. U n l e s s the pressure of official duties is unusually heavy, Mr. Harding goes out for a round at golf every day. During the last few months he has been going to the golf game early in the morning two or three days in the week. The driver of a milk wagon reported the other morning that as be was passing the White House a little before 6 a. m. he observed the President starting out In his automobile headed In the direction of one of the golf courses, while four secret service men were putting on their collars and neckties as they hurried away in a second machine in pursuit of the President. The sight that interested the driver of a milk wagon is not an unusual one. When the President makes up h l i mind the evening before to get an early start on the golf course, he leaves a call for 5 a. m. The secret service men, whose duty it Is always to keep him in sight, are called at the j same hour, but some of them live some j distance from the White House, and ' It frequently happens that they are compelled to hustle. On days when the President does not go to the golf course at 0 a. m., he goes out immediately after breakfast and is back at his desk about 10:30 a. m. Recently on account of the press of business he has done but little golfing In the afternoon. No person acquainted with the hard tasks that confront the President of the United States every day would think of criticising him for taking a little time off each day for recreation. Mr. Harding seldom goes out in his automobile for the mere pleasure of riding. Keep* on Shaking Hands. Recently the President's cabinet has been trying to persuade him to conserve his strength by declining to shake hands with the folks from all over the country who throng Washington during the summer seasou. The President has declined to tun] the tourists away empty handed. Three times a week—nn Monday, Wednesday and Friday—long lines of tourists form in front of the executive oftce, and at one o'clock or thereabouts these lines move forward. Not infrequently the President shakes hands with 500 or 600 persons at )ne of these midday affairs. To a considerable extent the handshaking crowds represent organizations of various kinds. If the industrial situation s.iould be straightened out within the next week or two the^-Presldent would still have the dilatory congress on his hands and would not feel like leaving the .national capital. The determination of the President to stick to his tasks—a determination that has kept him in Washington through two summers—has made it difficult for members of his cabinet to take vacations. Some of them have not had a week's full rest since March 4, 1921. In the old days Washington used to practically shut up shop during the summer season, The Landlord Lied. "You fellows are always pitching into u s landlords," he said to a reporter, "but we have our side to the story. Yesterday morning I got news that something was wrong with some of my houses on the East side. I went up there to find 40 windows broken out. When I asked one of my tenants the reason of it. he replied : " 'It was the thunderstorm that did \t: "But there has been no thunder storm. " 'Ther. u hailstorm.* "But there has been no hailstorm.

ECONOMY FOR REAL In the Kitchen Removal of Restriction* N • c a n a r y D u r Ing the W a r Has Shown World's USE F a i t h In Dominion's Future. For a period during the late war, and for a while after its close, there was put into operation by the Canadian fovernment legislation restricting certain classes and people of the countries which were not lined up with the allied nations from being admitted to Canada. This was quite necessary, and the reasons for it will be so apparent that they need not be given. However, the time came, In the early summer of this year, when It was deemed possible to remove some of these restrictions. It was found that there were many who came under their ruling that were of a class that Canada needed and who needed Canada. The restrictions, doubtless, were drastic, but were needful. The news of their removal, sent broadcast, has met with such a response as to give ample evidence that they had not killed interest in Canada, and that faith In the Dominion as a country where a new existence, happy and fruitful, was as complete as ever. As has been stated by one writer dealing with this subject, "the opening of the doors a little wider has but disclosed the dammed-up state of the stream, which, given freer release, 'Is pouring In fuller force over the Dominion." As to the moral effect of the legislation that enabled these restrictions to be carried out, it showed that while Canada was seeking settlers, its lands and Its homes were not intended as a shelter for those unable to meet the standard set as Canada's laws of civilization, the concessions which have removed these restrictions still have In view the maintenance of this standard, and those who are still allowed In are subject to the same requirements that have prevailed for years. As pointed out by the writer previously quoted, "Canada h a s successfully Impressed on those countries from which she draws her people that her prime and crying need Is for those who will go on land, and of those entering the country the bulk Is composed of agriculturists. Every country which has formerly contributed to Canada's population has resumed Its mission to its shores. "The lowering of the barriers has had a farther-reaching effect than the entry Into the country of many formerly debarred by reasons of financial stringency. It has had a moral effect. The restriction was rightly regarded as an indication of Canada's internal economic condition, and many persons and families of comfortable means contemplating Canadian settlement were discouraged from doing so. In the removal Is seen the first blush of the dawn of better days, and consequently many of those arriving are In a condition to establish rapidly and securely, "Though Canadian Immigration falls broadly Into the two classes, British and American, many European peoples have contributed in a large measure to the agricultural development of the Western provinces, and it Is gratifying to note the same healthy Interest In Canada evinced by the most desirable of these. "Amongst those from the European countries are Serbians, Poles, Swiss, Roumanians, Dutch, Jugo-Slflvs, French, Danish, Norwegians, Swedes, Finns and Lithuanians. All have constituted fine, desirable cltlzen-bulldlng material, as the few detentions and lesser deportations bear testimony. Furthermore, the disturbed industrial conditions of the New England stater 5 have resulted in the commencement of an exodus of French-Canadian families Iback to their old homes, which maj j-each an appreciable size. "On all sides this awakening of Interest Is evident. It Is a new faith borne on the crest of the wave of brighter prospects, the dawn of a fuller realization, In the continued inability of many other countries to emerge from the economic slough tnto which the war plunged them, of the desirability of Canada as a country more rapidly throwing off i t s post-bellum depression, and its great place in the world's Immediate future.

Seed corn for next season's planting should be selected In the field from the standing stalks in September. The (Jsappointjng search for good seed corn every spring should be a sufficient reason for following this practice, strongly advocated by the United States Department of Agriculture. Any intelligent farmer can go into his own cornfield when the corn Is mature and select high-grade seed if he has planted suitable types of corn and cultivated properly. If he has joined a county movement to develop certain standard varieties of corn which grow In that locality, and If he has raised these strains on his own land, he may reasonably expect a market for any surplus seed. County Agents Report Progress. Various methods were followed last fall by the county agents of the Northern and Western states In their efforts to convince the farmers that field selection of corn was a good thing which would amply pay for any trouble Involved. Similar tactics may well be used this season where for one reason or another the local people are not in the habit of field-selecting their seed corn. In Steele county. Minnesota, selection between September 10 and September 20 was urged. The week of September 24 was chosen as "good seed corn week" in Nance county, Nebraska. It seems likely that the corresponding dates this year will be the best time to go out Into the field and choose the most promising ears, noting the character of the plants on which they grow and the details which Indicate a vigorous and healthy condition. The county agent for Dakota county, Minnesota, reports that a permanent and reliable source of seed corn is being developed by getting certain farmers in the county to speclallre In seed corn week. They are asked to produce a dependable type of Improved corn and to put In facilities for drying and storing it properly. The average farmers are also encouraged to se- in the winter bring the best ten ears to the local county schools where shows will be held. The best ten ears from each school will then compete with the other schools of the township and the best from the town with the rest of the county. Six hundred and thirty-nine youngsters promised to try. The agent for Washington county, Indiana, mailed circular letters and publications on the subject to all t h e farmers of his county in the fall, and had demonstrations given at the schools for the younger generation. The rural teachers in this county include seed selection of corn as a project in their agricultural work. In spite of the development of a very successful central seed corn testing association in Rush county, Indiana, for several years, it Is the opinion of the county agent that the testing alone cannot be depended on for eliminating corn diseases. Soil conditions and the heredity of the seed corn are factors which affect the growth of the corn, and the latter of these can be controlled by more careful selection of seed corn in the fall from the field. Field Selection In Some New Places. A great deal of Interest was manifested in six field demonstrations of seed-corn selection held In Cass county, Missouri. This line of work was entirely new to many of the farmers present. Those who participated in the 260 bushels selected were further convinced of the value of early seed selection from the stalks, because of the adverse weather conditions later in the fall. The autumn was abnormally wet in this section, and the corn matured slowly; then an early freeze in November caused a low percentage of germtnatlon in seed selected haphazard in the ordinary way after gathering the corn. In Mississippi county, Missouri, the work done in relation to the field-crops project in 1920 was mainly concentrated upon* field selection of corn. This was carried out through community meetings which were held in co-operation with the county school superintendent. The advantages of Farmer Should Endeavor to Strike a n Average of Good Ears Like These. lect their own seed, but the definite work of safeguarding the seed corn supply of the county Is being carried on with a few men who are really competent to produce certified seed corn and equipped to handle It. Eventually it is hoped that there will be a man In every township doing this seed corn work and, where possible, having seed corn houses In which to dry It. In Scott county, Minnesota, last year, 4,300 acres of selected seed were planted. For their 1921 planting 32 farmers field-selected their seed corn, and all bad a surplus to sell. Stearns county has 31 co-operators In seed corn work. Minnesota No. 13, Rustless White Dent, and Northwestern Dent were the varieties used. Some of this certified seed was awarded to 30 farmers with their farm bureau renewal, thus Insuring a good distribuW h y and Wnere. Relieving Officer (to applicant who tion for this year.

Co-Ope rat I on by Written Agreement The county agetit for Huerfano county, Colorado, visited 20 farmers last year who were among the foremost corn growers, s n d made written agreements with each, whereby they promised to raise their corn accord ing to the usual method of cultivation, select seed corn in the field and store It in a dry place where the air would circulate. These fields were all visited by the county agent daring the summer and an accurate estimate made of the percentage of stand each had, thus showing the men of what importance it was to plant seed corn that germinates 100 per cent.

SAYS PROFITEERS CONTROL FUEL State Administrator tors Comprise Advisory Board. Lansing—William W. Potter, state fuel administrator, has charged that t h e coal concerns most closely affiliated with the Federal Fuel Administration are "getting theirs and getting it first." He declared that the public is not in control of the distribution of coal; that coal is being daily offered at exorbitant prices, and asserted that the inability or disinclination of the Federal Fuel Administration to furnish Michigan sufficient coal for its necessary needs, makes it evident that enough coal can not be gotten into the state in time to prevent serious discomfort and loss of life. Mr. Potter declared that the operators comprise the advisory board of the Federal Fuel Administration and added that "when a handful of men may throttle the American public and demand double a fair price for coal, it is time this American public was taking some action to change the personnel of the activities of the Federal Government."

Blackney, of Flint, eun(ttdate for the Republican Congressiona l nomination from the sixth district, <m the opening leg of his speaking t o o r inaugurated with a big political Jn&ss meeting in Flint Thursday evening, at which he addressed 3000 persons, was given an enthusiastic reception Saturday by the citizens of Livingston- County. During his tour . v Of the county Mr. Blackney delivered Bice addresses, being greeted by :V*|wgf audiences at every point. £ig>e:*king in Cohoctah, Fowlerville, t eB& Iosco, the Genesee County candidate delivered stirring addresses in Which he outlined the political issues of the day; placing special emphasis OH the transportation problem which ~fc menacing the United States and offered the development of that great natural waterway, the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River as a solution t o that problem. *'Thc completion of this project Would be the greatest boon that can b e granted to the farmers and people Of the middle west of which Michigan If a part," Mr. Blackney declared. •There is a population of over forty million people in the 18 states directly affected by such an improvement and to the manufacturers and farmers of this area, the developmeut of this waterway would mean direct communication with the markets and distributing tenters of the world. "At present, in many instances, for every three carloads of grain shipped to an eastern port, two oS them are taken to defray the cost of transportation while the farmer receives the proceeds from the third. This* excessive transportation cost is due largely to the cost of lighterage and terminal charges. "With the development of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River, lighterage and terminal charges weuld be almost entirely eliminated with a saving in transportation cost estimated on alone, at $.10 a bushel. This amount saved the farmer would amount to many millions more than the $250,000,000 required to finance the project. "The power that can be developed from the rapids of the St. Lawrence River is estimated at four miliionss of horse power, with a cash power of $60,000,000 a year—a sum sufficient to keep up the interest on a bond issue with which to finance the project and to establish a sinking fund with which to retire the bonds. "if 1 am stmt to Congress I pledge myself to make, a careful study of tins proposition which 1 feel i» of vital importance not only to our own district and state but to the entire middle west." in closiug the speaker said, "1 believe congress to be the greatest deliberative body in the world and as a legislatve group without equal. Yet 1 believe that congress lias gradually lost that direct contact with the people necessary to real representation and that is why i have entered this race. 1 did not come before the electorate of this district at the urgent request oi my friends, the hackneyed political reason being used by many candidates but because 1 feel that it is time for Congress to get back to the people and because, if us the people's choice, 1 shall endeavor to establish direct representation to the people of this district iu the Halls of Congress."

Jl Triumph, for Value I are universally equipping with Firestone Cords. This steadily increasing public preference is proof of the xecognition by car owners of the greater values offered by Firestone. It is a tribute to Firestone men—all stockholders in the company—all actuated by the operating principle of Most Miles per Dollar. There are many reasons for the high quality of Fireston* tires but chief among the special manufacturing processes are double gum-dipping, thus eliminating internal friction by insulating each cord strand, and air-bag cure, insuring a well-balanced and perfectly shaped product The high average performance of Firestone Cords is without equal in the annals of tire making and is reflected by the general tendency to specify Firestone for hard service. Taxicab and bus lines, buying tires by the mile, Don't speculate in tires—you will find the right combination of price and quality in Firestone. Come in and let us tell you about the service these Cords are giving other car-owners whom you know. N the past two months Firestone has built and marketed more tires than in any similar period in its history. V <! [( •> ircston GUM-DIPPED CORDS ^ ^ - ^ S o / t f bu— R. DAY BIRD W. H.

He freshened up the store e t once and made it up to date; He tried to be obliging from early dawn till late. He served the folks most gladly to fountain pens or pills; He labored to destroy our germs and aches and ills. His efforts soon were noticed extending through the town, And for all general uplift wc marked the druggist down. And so one day the outcome was plainly to be seen—Our Sunday School needs workers with minds both brisk and keen. The Superintendent's office seemed waiting for this man, And so upon those duties he graciously began. He introduced new methods, he organized the men, * The Reds and Blues held contests, he labored h;ird and then— He took a mean advantage of other local boys, And stole one of our fairest girls without much fuss or noise, However, we forgave him; his helpmeet she became, And in the Federated Church they entered on life's game. Together gave their service, in music, class work, all, Until to other fields of work, they're answering the call. Regretful, yet with kindly wishes for success, Wc speed them on their journey and wish them happiness. We trust that though their paths in life lead far and far away, If through the winding valley, if East or West they stray— If on fame's towering summits, or sunlit mountain peaks They'll carry our good wishes-—both these departing "Weeks." We know they'll not be idle, we know they'll find their work, And when the call to service comes, they'll not be folks to shirk. So though we lose in Pinckney, the Cause still needs their aid, And be it pills or Sunday School, into that work they'll wade. Now just to show our feeling and grateful thanks tonight We offer this slight token, in remembrance true and bright. And when far away from Pinckney, In their busy happy life, We'll remember most sincerely Mr. Floyd Weeks and wife. —CLELLA MYRTLE F I S H Only an Amateur.
