The Associated Press dispatches
state that the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe railroad has put up the
bars against men whose fingers are
stained yellow with cigarette juice.
A number of men so branded have
been discharged, and no more will be
employed. The reason given by tne
railroad officials is that a cigarette
smoker is inefficient and unreliable,
and not safe to be trusted with a re-
sponsible position
The vital problem of today is the
liquor traffic. In the light of today
we wonder how the evils of human
slavery was ever tolerated, but we
are tolerating a more gigantic evil
than slavery at its worst. The saloon
power is a foe to civilization, enemy
ef law, the arch enemy of home and
nation. What shall be done wit h it?
There is bu_ one answer. Let pat-

Corn in Oklahoma
In the December 1st issue, I made
some comparisons of Oklahoma’s
average yield of corn with the yields
of the other states and suggested
some of the .'causes of low yields as
follows: Moisture isen’t the only
factor which determines corn yields;
fertility of the soil is of equal im-
portance. A great deal of corn is
planted on land not at all suited to
corn production and which will not
give profitable yielda under the most
favorable of conditions. It lacks
fertility; in some instances, the ele-
ments of plant food are deficient, in
others, the texture of the soil is all
wrong for the production of corn.
Thou all of us know that too much
corn is planted on high lands in
western Oklahoma. All of this re-
sults in reducing the average yield
per acre for the state. Ohio has a 10
year average of 35 6 bushels of corn
per acre. But those Ohio farmers
plant corn on eorn land and they
have their poorer soils in grass. Ok-
lahoma ought to grow 160,000,0(>0
bushels of corn each year ana it
ought to be produced on not more
than 5,000,000 acres. We have made
great advances during the past five
years in the quality of our 6eed corn,
in preparing land for corn, in plant-
ing it properly, and in cultivating it
thoroughly. <But we ’.need to give
more attention to the climatic limi-
tations and not to persist in planting
iaryr acreage where the average
rainfall is short. .And where there
is ample rainfall under average con-
ditions, corn should be planted only
on land which has enough fertility
in it to produce a profitable crop.—
Ok. F. J.
was found that the average cost pet
year in feeding, bedding, cleaning
the animals and m >rketing the milk
or butter was $17 03. The annual
cost of feed was $22 per cow.
The cost was distributed as follows
grain, $6 80; roughage, $10 28: pas
ture $4 92; total $22. This added to
labor gives $39 03. When the iniw-
est on the investment :s added, t'.,c
cost will be about $42 per cow. The
cows averaged 4,950 pounds of milk,
testing 186 49 pounds ot buiterfat.
The average income from each cow
was $50.95. It will be -een that t here
was onlv a small margin of profit.
In New York and other eastern
states the price of grain would be
considerably more than the price in
Minnesota.
The most interesting part of this
test was the fact that the best c-w»
tested in Minnesota gave milk w- rt h
$69.97 in one year, and the poorest
$28.86. It will be seen that there was
a great variation and that many not
only failed to afford a profit, but did
not pay their board.
The cost lof handling we believe,
could be greatly reduced. Where
most of the work is done by the dairy
man and his family tnere should he
splendid profits upon the average
animals shown bv the above test.
Even If some help must be hired,
there should be a fair profit. fVhen
the feed is produced on the farm and
the manure saved and returned, ani-
mals showing the average income
above cited should be profitable ani-
mals.—Farm & Ranch.

Th* Logical Point
In its issue of Dec., 21, 1910 the
New Orleans I‘em, in supporting
New Orleans as the logical place at
which to hold the Panama exposition
has an editorial that is worthy the
consideration not only of eyery con-
gressman, but of every citizen as
well. Their presentation of the
claims of Now Orleans, is fair, and is
made unusually strong because they
include in the argument not odIv
New Orleans but the territory ad-
jacent. Their accessibility; both by
rail and water; their central loca-
tion; climate, diversified attractions,
cosmopolitan character of popula-
tion; age and influence, wealth and
known hospitality, hote s and show
places, all go to make New Orleans
the logical place at which to hold
the exposition.

Average Cost of Cows
The cost of keeping a dairy cow
will vary in different localities, ac-
cording to the cost of the various
feeds used. It is impossible to give
an exact estimate of the cost, that
will apply to all sections of the
country.
