I’ve written for not quite two years A daily bit of verse; And some was good, and some was bad, And some was even worse. I wish I might a standard find, A standard I could keep; But thoughts, I note, are not as like As are a lot of sheep. For moods I have and tenses, too— The latter mostly past— Expressing some of which would make "Dear readers” stand aghast. And writers have the blues, you know, Days when they’re in a funk: And what they’d write on such a day, An editor would junk. On other days It seems to them The word is aU a-wry; But if they wrote what then they felt, The world would pass them by. I winder how a song bird can Hit e’er his cheery note; Put beauty in his singing, too; He couldn’t if he wrote. Of am I wrong, about the birds Such folly to indite? Perhaps a wren might steal my job, If it could learn to write, And if it could, and if it did. Now wouldn’t that be bliss? For then you’d never have to read A lotta stuff like this. —Sam Page. Partiality in Snooping. From Kearney, (Neb.,) Hub. Why in the name of Heck’s pup does Atorney General Sorensen keep pickin’ on Omaha when there is need for law enforcement all over Nebraska? It is recalled that the attorney general did butt in at North Platte once upon a time and that he went out “on his ear,” threatening ven geance but ever afterward keeping the town at a safe distance. The attorney general apparently has his own peculiar concept of Women Have Varying Tastes. From Kansas City Star. What do women like to read? Are their interests fundamentally dif ferent from those of men? These questions are suggested by the ex perience of Lord Northcliffe in es tablishing a newspaper in London for women, as told by Hamilton Fyfe in his newly published life of the great British publisher. With his restless energy Lord Northcliffe, already the publisher of numerous successful newspapers and magazines, decided there was one large field untouched by the newspapers—the field of women’s interests. He believed there vu ■ Co-Ops Win Added Converts in Reducing Corn, Wheat Acreage Dakota, Nebraska Wheat Area Joins in Move to Help Farmers Chicago — — Converts to the agriculturafgospels of co-opera tion and reduced acreage have been the most numerous this year in the plains states of the upper Missouri and Mississippi valleys. In Nebraska. North and South Dakota wheat plantings were sharp ly cut, and in the Dakotas, Minne sota, Iowa and Wisconsin, live stock and dairy interests have in creased their co-operative market ing agencies. Weather Governs Corn Last summer’s drought touched only the fringe of the corn belt, • southern Indiana and Illinois. Corn | prospects in these states depends, according to A. J. Surratt, agricul tural statistician at Springfield, 111., upon spring conditions. Wet weather will mean curtailed acreage; dry weather, no reduction. “Farmers largely will forget the plight of last fall if their crops show improvement,” said Surratt. “We usually forget our past hard ships when times are good.” A_ E. Anderson, Nebraska crop statistician, said the 400,000 acres formerly planted in wheat, and freed by this year’s acreage reduc tion, probably will be given over to alfalfa and clover. W. F Schilling and Samuel R. McKelvie, farm board members, spoke many times in the northwest, always stressing advantages of co operative marketing Their efforts are reflected in such statements as those of Alva H. Benton, marketing specialist, North Dakota Agricultu ral college, Fargo, N. D. ‘Co-operative livestock shipping associations now number between 300 and 400, and over 40 per cent of all livestock passing through South St. Paul market now are vice, et cetera, to the extent that it has a proper place as a dramatic setting for the stage play of a clever politician. It is conceivable that the attor ney general and the state sheriff can both be of service to the au thorities in the cities and counties in the state, in the prevention, de tection and punishment of vice and crime, through proffered assistance and co-operation, but not by action independent of local authorities and raids put on to produce a stage effect. But why the grudge against Oma ha? There is no reason for the neg lect of Lincoln, and Nebraska City, and Norfolk, and Grand Island, and Hastings, and even Kearney, North 1 Platte of course omitted as being able to shinny in her own alley and no questions asked. If spies can be brought into Ne braska from other states to work under cover of the attorney gen eral's office and spend the moneys of the state of Nebraska, we sub mit that it is not fair to spread the butter quite so thick in Omaha to the neglect of the other ambi- j tious cities of the state. Moreover, while the thrills are going 'round it is manifestly unfair that Omaha gets the lion’s share. Who doesn’t enjoy a thrill now and again, especially third-city dwellers who are not up in the trick great opportunity here which he could meet. So he Established the Daily Mirror. Contrary to his usual custom, he did not feel competent to direct its policies. So he em ployed the ablest women newspaper writers that he could find and put them in complete charge, with in structions to make a women’s pa per. As a result of abundant adver tising, the Daily Mirror made a huge splash in the British journal istic world. Curiosity was aroused and the first editions had an im mense sale. But once the curiosity was satisfied the sales fell off. In two months the circulation was | j handled by farmers’ co-operatives.’* Many Crops in Dakotas The Dakotas have such a diversi fied agriculture that depression In one or two crops does not material ly depress the state. North Dakota produces almost half of the flax seed crop and with South Dakota grows much of the rye and alfalfa. In virtually all the middle west ern states larger numbers of hogs and sheep are being fed. Iowa has a half million more hogs, while South Dakota, Wisconsin, Minne sota and Kansas have larger num bers of sheep grazing. The number of cattle on feed in the corn belt, however, is the lowest since 1921. This is attributed to the last fall’s corn shortage. Wisconsin largely is depending upon co-operative marketing to bring some relief. About 4,000 Wis consin dairy farmers are banded together to market milk to conden series. Wisconsin's livestock federa tion co-operative expects to have 50 local co-operative units before the end of the year. Tax Burden Criticised Earl Smith, president of the Illi nois farm bureau and Charles Hill, chairman of the Wisconsin depart ment of agriculture, believe farm taxation is one of the major prob lems, contending the tax burden should be shifted from real and per sonal property to incomes. The financial depression has ac celerated group farming in the middle west, according to C. J. Qlaassen of Omaha, president of the Farmers’ National company, which manages 635 Iowa and Ne braska farms of 234,500 acres. R. W. Gowland, president of the Northwest Farm Managers associa tion, comments regarding bank, in surance and land company manage ment: "When once established these su pervising agencies will be continued to direct operations of purchasers and to counsel those to whom loans have been made.” of manufacturing their own. Just imagine how the hicktown ers could swell up if able to boast of a spy or two in their midst, in visible avengers of outraged law, mysterious importees and pass words of the great higher power who symbolizes the might, the power, the secrecy and the invisi bility of justice incarnate, function ing in the official person of an or dinary attorney general! Q, What Is the area of Little America? Does it belong to the United States? M. G. A. Since Little America is only the name of a temporary camp it cannot be said to have any area, nor is the territory in which it was lo cated properly United States terri tory, since this part of the Ant arctic continent bordering on the Ross sea had been visited before by various explorers from other coun tries. The portion of the Antarctio continent (which has a total area equal approximately to that of the United States and Mexico com bined) which has been claimed by the United States is Marie Byrd Land, which was flown over by Ad miral Byrd and also was partially explored by his party on foot. Q. How many coal mines are there in the United States? D. C. A. There are approximately 6, 000 active coal mines in the United States. down to 40,000 and the newspaper was losing money heavily. It was a new and bewildering ex perience for Northcliffe. He knew something was the matter, but he did not know what. He got rid of the women editors and turned for help to a young newspaper man in whose judgment he had confidence. This man ventured the opinion that women’s primary interests were about the same as men’s; that they wanted a regular news paper, with the news given clearly and interestingly. Later an unusu al number of illustrations wa< made part of the scheme. Many Make Themselves Martyrs to Bodily Ills The intense rivalry and hostility toward relief display themselves most obviously in the martyr to bod ily Ills. The very familiarity of the phrase "enjoying 111 health" proves how multitudinous arc these victims. The rest of the world is largely composed of hypochondriacs to him who is « “hypochondriac himself. Nothing annoys him so inueh ns to hear some one else boast of ills dis eases. Straightway he sets about taking the wind out of Ids rival's sails.

Small Army of Unpaid Observers of Weather Thousands of men and women act as unpaid "co-operative" observers of the United Stales weather bureau. Thanks to the services of these per sons, daily weather records are main tained at nearly 0,000 places in (ids country, and in many cases the rec ords have been kept with hardly n break for 50 years or more by an Individual observer or by members of tlie same family. These records are sent monthly to Washington and serve ns the raw material from which climatic statistics are prepared for all parts of the country. The bureau supplies to each observer a rain gauge, a maximum thermometer for registering the highest temperature of the day, a minimum thermome ter, which registers the lowest, and a wooden thermometer and screen, or shelter. The observer reads bis instruments once a day—usually about sunset—and enters the read ings in Ids register, together with a record of various special weather events, such ns frosts, thunder storms, tornadoes, auroras and opti cal phenomena. Knife Superstition An mousing episode was enjoyed nt the annual dinner of the British .Metropolitan (iroeers* association re cently, when Viscount llailsham, loiil chancellor in tlie late government, ivas the principal guest. The duke of Athol, who presided, presented every guest with a souvenir pocketknife. mid f.ord llailsham insisted on giv ing him a penny for this present. “1 im a Scotsman, but absolutely free from superstition,” said the duke. "I.ord llailsham shows lie Is still hound by its trammels by giving me Hie penny. However, I shall prize Hint penny very highly, ns it is the only penny 1 ever got out of a law yer.” Most people obey the laws because they don't come in the slightest con tact with them.
