At this time of year the importance of the canning industry is forcibly illustrated. Modern processes of canning make it possible to utilize the surplus of practically every farm crop and during the 2 months of the year distribute fruits and vegetables to the four corners of the earth Contract prices by canneries to the farmers enable the farmer to figure in advance on his crop production and profit. Instead of the uncertainty of market and price conditions, the canning industry has to a large extent made a business along well defined lines. with canneries in crop production and marketing encourages community development and intensified farming.

Every person and every camping party that passes through our forests should consider themselves deputy fire wardens and see that no careless act of their own or any person under their observation adds to the fire hazard in our forests. CHERRY, Publisher. It NECESSITY FOR BEET SUGAR. A prominent European sugar producer on a recent trip to the United States expressed the opinion that prohibition was tremendously increasing the consumption of sugar in this country. Ht estimated that by the end of 1922 our consumption of sugar would have been increased from 750,000 to 1,000,000 tons a year. This opinion merely emphasizes the opportunity for developThis development, ment of the American beet sugar industry. however, hinges upon the ability of the industry to meet competi tion of sugar produced in foreign lands on a much cheaper wage scale than in the United States. It is to offset this difference in cost of production undei American standards of wages and living that American farmers and beet sugar manufacturers are asking a moderate tariff to protect our beet sugar industry and allow it to meet foreign competi tion on an equal basis at minimum prices. American beet sugar is the safeguard which prevents us froti We do not wisl being absolutely dependent on foreign supplies. is in this to shut out foreign sugar which needed country but we can not afford to have foreign sugar to wipe American beet sugar of. the market. FARM MORTGAGES AND HUMAN NATURE. George E. Roberts of the National City Bank of New York discusses expansion of credit in boom times and need of deflatior now as follows: Credit is a necessity but it must be handled with care. The time to pay off indebtedness is when you are prospering. But it ii the history of human nature that people do not use their earnings and profits in good times to pay their debts. Instead, they use then as a basis for further borrowing. Credit was extended too freely everywhere following the war It is human nature to follow a cycle of rising prices, easy money, and good times until they bust. We had too much credit when prices were good. And we used it. Increasing of the total of farm mortgages is an illustration. In Iowa, my native state, from 1910 to 1920, the ten most prosperous years of the state's history, the total of farm mortgages increased from 205 million to 490 million, an increase of 140 pel cent. When prices were good they should have reduced their indebtedness. But they didn't. Instead they increased it. That's human nature. HOW ABOUT IT? The smoke of burning forests is a signal and a warning to all. should teach that an excess of caution, a most meticulous care, is only wise. Vacationists of all varieties, who seek the ancient, friendly shelter of the forest, should look to their camp fires and their burned matches not only because the law requires that they do so, but because common sense and require caution of None them. would willingly be the source of a destruction so calamitous and irremediable as a forest fire. self-intere- st pressure and restricted foreign demand were depressing influences.

William Wrigley, Jr., is soo.i to own the largest office building in Chicagobuilt with money made in selling chewing gum at five cents a package. Back in 1917, just fifteen years ago, he was unknown. Then he began to advertise Wrigleys gum. The more he advertised, the greater the derm nd for his brand of chewing gum, of course. Soon he began spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in advertising and making millions in return. Today he is among the wealthiest men in America but he is still advertising and still selling his gum. If Wrigley can do this well with a five-ceand lots of competition, think what others can do with goods A which there is more profit, ar d in a field that isnt so crowded Tn is a lesson in Wrigley's experience for the merchant to learn. nyihat is that no matter how small the profit theres money in it ytell enough of it.
