NEW SECRETARY PUTS PROSPERITY ► UP TO FARMER Dr, Jardine,. Agriculture Chief, Has No Fanciful Notions, MANHATTAN. Kan., Feb. 19. Ah the farmer fares, so fares the Nation. This is the belief of Dr. W. M. Jardine, president of the Kansas State Agricultural College, recently selected by President Coolidge to be Secretary of Agriculture, who has no fanciful notions concerning prevention of farm depression. Jardine puts the responsibility for maintaining farm prosperity straight up to the farmer. He advises more efficient production, better livestock and wheat of higher protein content. “The farmer should raise better product*,—the kind the public demands. The public is willing to pay a higher price for the quality article,’’ he declared. “Our big problem and aim shojuld be t'' get results back to the farmer in dollars by shortening the distance between producer and consumer. Systematic Marketing “The chief benefit of cooperative marketing would accrue from order--vly, systematic marketing, providing Ua gradual flow of grain to market, stabilization of the market and preventing dumping of surpluses with resulting demoralization of prices. “As the farmer fares, so fares the nation. In helping to keep farmers prosperous, we help ourselves in increasing business confidence. We cannot set ourselves apart. It is an all-man job and team work counts.” The live stock Industry which was hard hit for months, gradually is returning to normal, according to Jardine. The surplus has been liquidated and the industry is getting down to a normal supply and demand basis, he said. Kansas’ First Jardine is the first cabinet member to be appointed from Kansas. lowa has long had first call on the post of Secretary of Agriculture. Dr. Jardine, president of the Kansas State Agricultural College was a member of the President’s special farm commission which recently completed its work. He attracted the attention of President Coolidge and won the appointment out of a field of more than a hundred candidates. The Kansas delegation in Congress originally endorsed Secretary Mohler of the Kansas State Agriculture Board but shifted to Jardine when Coolidge seemed to favor him. The nomination was confirmed without any opposition in the Seng^ite. HNDIANAPOITs IS CHOSEN Farmer-Grain Men to Meet Here Next Year—Elect Officers.

Seated In his dressing room in a local theater where he is starring in “Stepping Stones,” he told between puffs at a cigar of the need for extracting the cuss words and smut from many of the current plays.

I did see ‘Rain,’ but I think it is a pretty fair show outside of the swearing. “The public may laugh at a smutty Bhpw, but it is a shame faced laugh, and they are a bit disgusted when they go away, and promise themselves not to again.” Stone said he could see no excuse for most of the so-called “frankly realistic shows’’ now playing on Broadway and in some other centers. “I wouldn’t attend them and I wouldn’t let my daughter see them,” he snapped. “And I know she wouldn't want to see them.” Need Religion “We need religion in the theater,” Stone said. "And I think the theater is good for religion. I know a lot of ministers. One of them told me that good clean shows do more than a sermon. ”1 want the Actor’s Equity Association, to which I belong, and the producing managers and the public to get together now and decide that cleanliness, real fun, and the spirit of Christ in the theater will not only make a better show, but in the end will be a better paying proposition.” w "Pape's Cold Compound" Breaks a Cold Right Up Take two tablets every three hours until three doses are taken fB The first dose al- \ ways gives relief.
