WHEN THE SNOOT IS IN THE TROUGH
An;on']’ the outstanding high lights of the present
laf^ .0 (ltick session of Congress is the apparent earnest
efforts of a small group committed to real economies in
go\ eminent by paring away unnecessary expenditures,
am1 that contingent who believe: “As it was in the be
ginning; it E and ever shall be; world without end,” Ah,
Money'
Efforts to strke out a little item like .$39,113 for con
tinuing experiments in the effect oi electricity on plant
u+e, consumed hours of debate, and was defeated by the
place-makers. Before the debate ended the entire Agri
cultural department was involved, under the threat that
such economy struck at the foundation of efforts to aid
the farmer!
Eat s gc i this short wave cropping svstem going.
0nce ir is discovered that a cock-eyed spud‘can be made
to get up with a slash-bght and do the grow stuff when
all decent people are in bed, the power trust will be in
front of Cy Berkin's gam with a pole and a roll of wire,
plim a r-ale of scientific tracts issued by the great Agri
cultural depaitment with a view to converting everyone
man tc the hired men to the electrically produced gar
den sass. A complete transformer set, plus a radio set
capable or keeping Cy informed of progress of the spuds
while he is pounding his ear can be had by the simple
process of selling eld Dobbin .and a couple of bull yearl
ings v, ho hitnerto supplied the fertilizer, all to be paid
lor with 20 per cent down and a mortgage on Cy’s false
teeth for the balance.
Then the high apostles of efficiency can wave the
hand and shorn: “Imok what we have done for industry!”
In the meantime Cy can let his electrical spuds rot
for want of a market.
Once the politicians create a new place at the pub
lic trough it would take T NT to jar them loose.
Instead of .accepting a salute of 21 guns at his inaug
uration President-Elect Rooosevelt is preparing to fire
21,000 political pot-lickers.

Many states are puzzled over how they will use the!
small funds being appropriated for Universities. If pre-'
sent conditions are due to what they have been teaching,!
money might be saved and a profit made by investing!
the funds in No. ? shovels and picks.
