Farmer and die Tariff.
The tariff is to be made an' issue in the
election this year, warns Senator Underwood,
free trade leader of the democratic party in the
senate. His challenge will be accepted by the
lepulilicaiK. Senator Underwood also insists
on having unlimited debate, that the passage of
the bill may be delayed as long as possible. The
republicans are .not willing to accede to this,
and Senator McCumber, who is leading the
fight for the republicans, is anxious to get the
measure on its passage as soon as possible.
In one of his addresses on the floor Sen
ator Uudcrwood belittled the statement that
the farmers feel the effect of foreign competi
tion, and asserted that the Atlantic seaboard is
fed from its own production, and that the
effort to secure a protective duty on farm prod
ucts is merely an effort to compel the 30,000,
000 people of the New York and New England
region to pay tribute to the farmers of the west.
Senator Underwood ignores the fact that it is
now possible for an Argentine farmer to sell
his wheat to mills 500 miles inland from New
York cheaper than the Nebraska farmer can.
Some other points are worthy of note.
In the year 1920, to which the democrats
point as the one great keystone in their arch
of foreign trade, total exports of foodstuffs of
every kind in value amounted to $2,034,596,001,
while imports of foodstuffs of all kinds came to
$1,815,765,889, or almost 90 per cent of the value
of the exports. 'In other words, we bought
nearly as much as we sold. The food producers
of the United States have competition in the
home market.
A detail or two may interest the farmers.
Imports of eggs were valued at $7,851,523 in
1920; buttef. $18,646,459, ' and cheese, $5,657,-
IMS. Exports tor mac year were; -eggs.
' 569,144 r butter, $10,142,403; cheese, $5,054,253.
Of potatoes imported in 1920 the value was
$12,467,281, and of wheat flour, $8,668,874. These
figures seem insignificant, perhaps, when com
pared to the billions represented by totals, but
they are eloquent testimonials to the truth of
the statement that foreign food producers are
finding a foothold in American markets.
Senator Ashurst of Arizona, a democrat, has
declared in favor of a tariff that will protect
the farmer as well as the manufacturer. That
is just what the 'republicans are trying to estab
lish, and just what the democrats, led by Under
wood of Alabama and Hitchcock of Nebraska,
are trying to prevent. The farmer has an in
terest in the tariff, and he knows he needs pro
tection on what he has to sell.
miiilontr hat notified assessor to icrutinitt

This settlement of th controversy it happily
reached by the application f a common sense
rut to determine ht ihould t taxed, and
means considerable relief to holder of building
and loan shares, who had looked ahead to a
rather tuii levy on their savings.
Out to Make Friendly Calls.
A group of 100 Omaha business men, rep
resenting various lines, is- off this morning to call
on friends in Iowa, South Dakota and northern
'Nebraska. These trade emissaries typify the
city they hail from. In the effort to extend the
trade and influence of Omaha, they are actuated
by a spirit of enterprise that brings success to
any undertaking. As a matter of fact, they are
not going into a new region, but where the name
of the city and its business houses is well estab
lished, and where friendly relations have been,
sustained for a long time. Omaha is the big
market town for the region to-be penetrated;
merchants and manufacturers here supply the
needs and purchase the products of the wealthy
territory the trade excursionists will traverse
during the coming week. No new conquest is
aimed at, but efforts will be made to more closely
cement the bonds between the Gate City and
those on whom it depends for support in its ef
fort to serve the wonderful empire of which it
is the metropolis. Such visits as this are help
ful, for 4hey permit personal contact, not always
easy to obtain, but invaluable as between dealers
and customers. Omaha men cannot know too
much about the country around us, and the
people who buy the goods for sale here, while
the merchants in the smaller towns gain equally
through acquaintance with the men who come
from the city. All things are in favor of the
purpose of the trade excursion.
Tax on Building and Loan Stock.
A very important decision was reached at
Lincoln last week, when the state tax com
missioner formulated a rule for the assessment
of building and loan association shares. Con
fusidn existed as to just how the provisions of
the' new revenue law should be applied, and a
dispute arose as to the correct method of cal
culating the value to be taxed. Meetings be
tween the tax commissioner and the represen
tatives of the building and loan associations
led to a close analysis of the law, and it was
finally agreed that it was never intended to
tax the shares at their full face or withdrawal
value, because of the fact that this was repre
sented largely by real estate on which the state
already levies tax, or by securities that are tax
free under the law. The way out was found by
deducting from the total value of all shares the
value of all securities held, and agreeing- to a
levy on the surplus thus arrived at. According
ly, the rate agreed on is 3 per cent of with-;
dawal value, or a the rate of $30 per $1,000,
which reduces the tax to 21 cents per $1,000
on the basis of a 7.mill levy. The tax com-
Shifting the Decimal Point
Whatever happen in Europe, on point it
(greed upon. Ther muit bt a general devalu
ation of paper currency before health i restored
to commerce and industry where it now it Ian
guishing. It was brought out before th Na
tional Chamber of Commerce meeting at Wash
ington last week that American capital to the
extent of almost a billion dollar hat gone
to Europe within a little over 12 month, iu the
form of loan to government and private en
terprise. Nothing in this indicate an intention or de
sire to abandon the people over there in their
time of need. At the moment J. P. Morgan
it in consultation with European financiers,
looking to the conditions on which a great
American loan can be floated. Lloyd George,
leaving Genoa, notified the Rutsiant that the
gap they left in the European family of na
tions is slowly being tilled, the economic void
it closing, and that recovery 'can be made
secure without them. This it admitted, but it
is equally obvious that until the money situa
tion is cleared up, and a more reasonable re
lation between the gold standard and the pa
per issues is brought about, the effort at re
covery will be seriously delayed. The decimal
point must be moved to the right at exten
sively as it has been to the left.
Doubtless inch a process will be a painful
one, yet it will bring benefit to all.' In Ger
many it will be of particular benefit, for. ho
matter how energetic , and frugal the people
there may be, they are feeling the effect of the
disproportionate status of their money. Pur
chase of raw materials and of food supplies
is difficult, because of fluctuation in value of the
mark.
When the Germans, the Poles, the Austrians,
the French and other people who have inordi
nately inflated their money resolutely accept
the deflation, and let themselves .down to a
solid foundation, the further processes of res
toration will follow in natural sequence.

Nebraska Looking Ahead.
A symposium published in The Bee today is
recommended to all for reading. In it will be
found the unbiased opinions of a number of
editors of newspapers scattered in every sec
tion of the state, so that the review is as near
representative of general conditions as could
be obtained. The verdict is that the crop pros
pect is excellent, and that the business outlook
is good. Little need exists to waste words in
interpreting this. For the sake of such as are
unacquainted with the spirit of the Nebraska
farmer, and therefore not advised of his faculty
for recuperation, The Bee will poiat out that
the forecast means that prosperity is with us
once more. Nebraska's fields are an unfailing
source of wealth; the farmer has encountered
adversity in about every known form, and has
risen above it, superior to circumstances. His
courage is indomitable, his energy exhaustless,
and his skill established. The fertile acres of
the state, plus the farmer' ability and favorable
weather, annually produce around half a billion
dollars' worth of food for humanity, and that
is a respectabe sum, even in these times. This
season will be no exception, at least the spring
promise is encouraging, and nobody need wor
ry about the Nebraska farmer going out of
business or repudiating his debts. He will take
care of politics, as he always, has, after his
own fashion, but will look after the. real busi
ness of farming first.
The art of pageantry finds its home this week
in Richmond, Va. As a part of the observance
of old home week, a musical' spectacle will be
given, starting with the virgin queen, Elizabeth,
who gave the state its name, running through
the landing at Jamestown, the incident of John
Smith and Pocahontas, Bacon's rebellion, the
French and Indian war, Patrick Henry's speech,
the vote for independence, the Clark expedition
to Vincennes and Detroit, the surrender at
Yorktown, General Lee and the battles of the
confederacy, ending with the world war and a
vision of the future. Certainly this is an at
tractive way to recall history.
Nebraska Smiles Again
Crop and B wines Condition put
Stop to Singing of the Blue.
An idea of the popularity of the public forum
is gained from the estimate that Everett Dean
Martin, director and founder of the Cooper Union
Forum of the People' Institute of New York City,
addressed a total audience of more than 86,000
in the past year. The twenty-fifth anniversary
of the forum movement is to be celebrated there
this fall, so this can not be considered any new
thing. .
e E. F. Goltra, having leased a fleet of barges
and towboats from the government, has set out
to compete with the present publicly owned line
on the lower Mississippi. It is not every enter
prise that would thus finance-a competitor, and
care ought to be taken to enforce the stipulation
that this gentleman adheres to his pledge to
handle only commodities that are not now
handled by the government barge line.
"Naw, them guys ain't nothin' to me. I
handle bigger stuff than that every day," said
the youngster who carried the Babe Ruth tele
grama to Judge Landis office. And that is
the way a whole lot of people felt about the
incident. '
The refusal of President Harding to allow
the Leviathan to be renamed for him wat a
considerate act. Thousands of veterans will re
member this craft as their transport, and it is
best to leave it the name which means so much.
The primary vote in Pennsylvania, where
almost a million republicans registered their
choice, does not indicate a lack of interest in
candidates, nor greatly encourage the democrats.
Too bad that Harding is both optimistic and
platitudinous, but if he were pessimistic and
epigrammatic, would the democrats like him
any better?
He who is satisfied is lost, to judge by recent
political events.

As to crop prospects for the present year, es

which there is no reserve or submolsture.

People are paying their taxes and are satisfying
other obligations. Retailers report an increase
in sales. The building season is opening prom
isingly and northeast Nebraska looks forward
to a year of more steady employment for its
town workers and to a harvest of farm products
that will mean splendid increase to the wealth
of this portion of the state, if the tillers of the
soil are paid a fair market price. The fruit out
look was never more promising. Corn is about
fifty per cent planted. The small grain and hay
fields are green and beautiful. Butter, eggs,
small vegetables, milk and cream give the farm
wife money with which to run her household.
Poultry is on the increase. Many farm women
report as high as from 500 to 2,000 young chicks
hatched and some of them well on the way to
the frying stage. This is God's garden. It is
now magnificent in its blossoms and tender
green. Never yet has it completely failed us
and this year promises a harvest richer than
ever before.

wheat Is in good shape and the corn planting is
practically all finished. The crops here are not

outlook, business appear to be picking up at
the local stores and the merchants express the
opinion that everything in the mercantile line

Colfax County (Clorkson) Frees.
Very little can be said of our crop conditions

of the setback by the cold wave and partial

weather conditions are favorable a bumper crop
can be expected on account of the large acreage.

definite enouxh and symptoms se
vere enough to excite suspicion and
to start the blood examinations
which establish the diagnosis.
In times oast the diagnosis of per-
nlclnua anemia has not been made
until aome time after the onset of
this third attack. In other words.
the subject has hnd the disease at
least two years before It was a lag
nosed or even suspected.
This Is a very Important point.
since Dr. Hunter thinks a good deal
can be done In the way of treatment
of what he calls glossltlc anemia
called by others pernicious anemia.
And that leads to the next prac
tical point made by Dr. Hunter. Ab
sorption of infection from around
the teeth through the gums results
In what he calls septic anemia.
Tomorrow's story will deal witn
seotic anemia.
Many cases of pernicious anemia
develoD septic anemia also.
Hunter says either form or anemia
Is capable of killing. When .they are
combined the combination is abso
lutely mortal. He further says when
the septic form is removed from the
combination the glossltlc form left
is milder and has a better proenosls.
The chance of what he call Im
mediate recovery is good. By that
he means quick and great, but time
limited improvement The chance
of ultimate and permanent recovery
he Is more guarded in talking about,
The method of treating this septic
combination is the removal of all
the teeth, good and bad, and hygiene
of the mouth.
The earlier this Is done in gloes-
itic anemia the greater the hope of
cure.
An Active life Advieefl.
Mrs. O. H. E. writes: "X. Please
print a good diet for an expectant
mother.
"2. What Is your' advice for a
stubborn case of constipation?
"3. What kinds of exercise are
not too strenuous for the expectant
mother? '
REPLY.
1. An expectant mother should
eat about what any normal woman
should. Many theories on this sub
ject are wrong. One is the theory
that she must eat for two. This has
done harm because it ha caused
some women to overeat until they
upset their digestion.
Another is that the woman eat
sparingly lest the baby be large and
her labor difficult. This has caused
some women to eat too little and
thus Imperil the supply of breast
milk.
2. Unless plenty of bran, vege
tables and fruit and water will cor
rect the habit the case is one for
the doctor.
8. I think an expectant mother
will do well to lead an active life.
Walking, horse-back riding, golf,
swimming should help, not harm.
Salt Does You No Good.
Mrs. J. J. H. writes: "1. Is tak
ing a glass of hot water with a tea-
spoonful of salt before breakfast
harmful to a woman In pregnancy?
T am doing this because my blood is
bad. If you know of anything for
the blood kindly let me know.
"2. Ha the following anything
to do with my condition ? Every
time I sit down for any length of
time my leg gets that dead feeling
as I would say, 'It falls to sleep.'
. REPLY.
1. This medication does you no
good. I do not know what you
mean by "my blood, is bad," but
whatever you mean, taking salt Is
not helping you any. Many preg
nant women get dropsy from
Bright' disease. If such women
take salt as a medlcine.they will be
narmed thereby.
2. You press on the nerve.' Sit
in an upholstered chair.

mass of progressive voters In the

C. K. McDonald, "they wera like

respect enough left to let hla hench

goes out that If the prngreaalves fall
It will be rauaed by those who do
not believe In dirty desla. Th great
mistake mad at th (irand Inland
convention on December I waa the
election of a tadpole for our cam
paign manager, and when he be
came a full-fledged frog he under
took to jump ua all over Into the
democratic party.
I want to say that th general
opinion among men everywhere la
that the root or all this trouble origi
nated under the hat of C. A. Roren-
sen. W all know tnat na waa very
much dissatisfied with the outcome
at tha conference held In Lincoln
last October. And st the Grand
Island convention In December hla
plans were absolutely Ignored and
condemned.
Borensen I a oroxress ve to be

when fully developed ha Is anything

his music. In this case ne tisea
Edmlsten to help destroy Wrny for
governor, and. people ssy. to use
Wray for senator, to nmke It more
easy to elect Howell. This was evi
dently Intended to eliminated Bige
low as a candidate for United States
senator.
Sorensen and his henchmen have
Intimated that Blgelow Is a joke as
a candidate for that position, be
cause he ia not well enough known
over the state to have any chance
of election. This is only dust in
tended to misguide the honest voter.
It is a fact, however, that eome-
eimes the better the candidates are
known the less chance they have for
election. This I think has been dem
monstrated in the recent manipula
tion by the chief mogul, 8orensen.
The truth is that Anson Blgelow is
head and shoulders, in integrity and
ability, above any man yet mention
ed to represent the people of Ne
braska in the United States senate.
