AMERICANISM CREED.
"I believe in the United States of America and the prin-
ciple of freedom justice equality and humanity upon which it
was founded and for wliicn American patriots have given their
lives and fortunes.
"I believe it is my duty towards my country to love it; to
support its constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag;
and to defend it against all enemies."
THE PRIDE AND SHAME OF AMERICA.
Pride and shame rommintrle when one reads the retort of
"Judge William U. Swanry chairman o the committee wi law en-
'lorcrmcnt of the American Par association. ' .
Pride because "the report points 'nut that there i a ' higher
standard f honesty and morality in America than in any cither
Yountry. ''The criminal clement in this country numbers less than
tone-third of one percent of the entire population" it Is declared.
'Jioxt this is exactly the sort of stuff that makes us swell up and
: boast of our beautiful "land of the free and home of the brave."
'Jt is painful to turn to the other side of the picture. .
i Shame listen to the report: "The situation in the United
"States so far as crimes of violence are concerned is worse than
"than in any other civilized country."
J" And we are further told that in this peaceful land of ours during
the last decade 85000 persons have perished at the hands of mur-
derers. ';'
These appalling and shocking facts arc enough to bring blushes
'to the faces of all of us and cause us to hang our heads in shame.
The statement that the United States has the worst record in
."the world in the matter of crimes of violence was made after the
'bar association's committee had spent a year in investigating con-
'ditions and seeking to discover remedies and there is no reason
to believe that it is an exaggeration. A truth at once so iilv
and so humiliating to us should cause every American to Jhlnk
seriously.
'f. What has made crimes of violence abound in this country
of ours? The committee headed by Judge Swaney answers by
pointing to four principal factors:
1. The trial of the criminal is too long delayed often till
Material with&scWaveMi&pVeac'cr '
j 2. Too many criminals are allowed to escape punishment the
immunity of the professional criminal encouraging potential crim-
Jnals to acts of lawlessness and violence.
f 3. The police lack if not the sympathy the -active assistance
bl the people. .
4. The so-called good citizen refuses or does his utmost to
:cscape the performance of jury service.
All of which we have often heard before but coming from
Buclt a source it sliould carry additional weight and should bring
fiome to us our responsibilities as citizens. An enlightened and
insistent public sentiment could readily correct the conditions wluc
fere pointed out as conducive to crime.
V It will be noted that the bar committee has not undertaken
to give an analysis of the causes of crime. Regardless of legal
procedure ana an ettorts toward law cntorcement crime will
exist as long as there is evil in the hearts of men bat there is
no reason whv violent crimes should he more ahnnHant in Aniorira
4lthan in any other country. From the suggestions offered by the
uminiuee wc niusi mier mat it is largely occause our people
absorbed in their own affairs have been negligent of duties devolv
ing upon them as citizens. Conditions will improve when we take
Jpur civic and political responsibilities more seriously. And our
$ride in America should impel us to be diligent in wiping out the
4name oi America.
S . DR. WATERS ON DAIRYING
I t." .
r Not many miles from Chickasha is a farmer who raises cnotip'
jsure-feed crops to keep a small herd of dairy cows and he savs

Pairying is receiving more and more" attention in the states where
the farming industry is most prosperous. Some years ago Dr
Waters then president of the Kansas Agricultural enlle trp. mini.
lated that butter shipments from that state amounted to about
9000000 pounds a year and sold for approximately $2500000 the
Additional vajue of y-products being about $500000. He esti-
mated that in 'selling the butter instead of the feed produced the
ivansas tarmers were gamers to the extent ot $1176000 and that
the feed if sold would have taken from the state soil fertility
y ui in 9i4juwu an oi wnicn was given DacK to tne sou by dairy
In a recent address Dr. Waters compared the dairy cow with
jiivti aa iivdia iu tuuvcriing siock ieea into iooa tor man.
He told his audience that a steer producing1 1000 pounds of live
jaeight in a year was producing from 300 to 400 pounds- of edible
jnatier wniie a nera ot uoistein cows on the Missouri University
farm was producing an average of 14000 pounds of milk per year
dr about a ton of dry matter each per year. In this connection
be said the production of the improved dairy cow was more than
jen times mat oi tne unimproved cow.
i Commenting upon some of the difficulties involved in dairy-
ing Dr. Waters said: ' J
We hear a great deal about the labor that is involved in
dairy inc. We have it out here in th cnntlm-ect ..
e would go into dairying if we could do dairying on horseback.
c aic au juoKins lor tne Kina OI agriculture that drtsa nnf L.n
bsy and we say 'that we will ' get behind with ouf riding if
we milk cows and all that sort of thing but we must bear in mind
-that no business that does not give employment the year round
or approximately so is going to sustain the family on the farm!
and also that any business that has short hours it does not make
any difference whether it is in the city or. on the farm and has a
large amount of leisure produces only average results and in the
average results there is no profit. The onlv man wlm o-pc Yynn a
