SOCIETY IN LONDON HOPES TO MAKE CITY "MAGNET OF WORLD" (Rv Associated Press) LONDON, Feb. 3 The "Brighter London society wnicn nus ju.h ubcu formed, has undertaken whatanAmercan who was asked to join it termed a "nrettv tall order." It is nothing ! less than to make London, to quote a phrase used by one of its founders, the "magnet of the world," and thereby attract to it multitudes of people with plenty of money to spend, especially rich Americans. The society is the outgrowth of a recent discussion among a number of prominent business men at the Savoy 4iotel. They were deploring the fact that American tourists were not snumerous as they were before the war. Then they fell to contrasting London with New York Oxford street with the great white way. London Drab. As compared with New York even New York under prohibition London s aspect was decidedly "drab" 'and its nightlife "dull," it was generallyagreed. Everybody was of the opin ion that London needed brightening. and as the result the new organization was born and christened. "The promoters of the new society," writes one of them, "hope to help make London the most worthy and beautiful city in the world; dispel its drabness, abolish its smoke evil and disperse its too frequent fogs; beautify the river approaches and lengthen the Thames embankment; object to t'e erection of ugly buildings, but to assist in every way the over-coming of unnecessary restrictions; help the theatres, hotels and restaurants and cT the;chams and" touri8T of the world." Among the vice-presidents of the society are the Bishop of Birmingham, H. Gordon Self ridge. General Sir Alfred Codrington, Viscount Curzon, Sir Woodman Burbidge and Sir Harry Brittain, M. P.

The rarm and By William R. A group of farm federationists and a number of representatives of the American Backers' association met in Chicago recently, to consider the federal land bank and the possibility of extending the scope of its functioning.

The idea discussed was the enlarging ! Charles Quinn secretary of the asof the operations of the land bank, so sociation, informed the senate commit-

that it may occupy the place in the agricultural field now occupied by the federal reserve system in industry and commerce. It was agreed that there should be some working connection between the farmers' best friend, his local hank, and the federal land bank. It was not thought best to replace or to interfere with the local farm loan association, but rather to add to the present law a provision granting the local bank the privilege of taking the farmer's application and handling it just as does the local farm loan association. The American farm bureau was sepresented at the meeting, and a number of well known agriculturists, also numerous professors from the state I

colleges, were present. The work of.duced in the Matanuska valley last the conference may be reflected in year, a small area producing 40 bushcongress, later on, that being the pur- els to the acre. Farmers in the Tanpose of the gathering. ana valley grew 3,000 bushels of wheat, A Radical Suggestion j 2,000 bushels of oats and 1,000 bushels A gentleman from North Dakota of barley, in 1921. The first seed makes the radical suggestion that con-j wheat sown came from Siberia, back

gress empower the department or agriculture to "control acreage by denial to planters of the minimum price." This presupposes that congress will "stabilize prices at a satisfactory level." for the benefit of the farmer. In its comment upon these twin ideas the Chicago Tribune says: "It is to be hoped the improvement of the farmers' condition, which though slow as yet is plainly under way, will clear the air of many ill advised projects, such as government control of prices and acreage. If the American farmer is ready to barter his economic liberty for such a mess of pottage, he has lost his wits. But we do not fear that." Corn Eaters of America. At a recent meeting of the "Lincoln Crib" any number of corn preparations were served. This was at Lincoln, Neb., the "crib" being an organization to increase the consumption of corn, in all its forms. They even smoked corncob pipes at. the dinner. Nebraska is overflowing to the edges with corn, a large percent being "old corn," at that. The menu consisted of corn au gratin, corn cake, corn-fed Nebraska pork loins, hominy with green peppers, canned corn on cob, com bread, corn salad with pimentos, cor;tarch pudding, corn cookies and coin candy. The gathering organized the "Corn Eaters of America," a lodge which any may join. The Lincoln Crib has proven to be the forerunner of other such cribs in Nebraska. It is expected the idea will spread widely. When Sowing Spring Wheat. An authority on spring wheat says that one of the most important facts to remember is that the earlier it is seeded the larger will be the crop peri; acre. 1111s "earnest" depends, of i course, on the latitude in which grown. ! For northern Illinois, for example, as soon after March 15 as farmers can get into the field is a good time to ow spring wheat, as msny farmers ! have proven. Prank Mann f innic ,elIs Prairie Farmer that his experi ences of February seeding assures him !hat Detter crPS of spring wheat can ; e &rown from winter seeding than trom spring planting. The theory is that spring wheat, like winter wheat, likes a brief rest in the soil before it commences active growth. Fertilizer and Freight Rates. The price of fertilizers, generally, is lower than in 1916, says the traffic j committee of the National Fertilizer association, and it naturally demands a lower freight rate so that the farmers can buy at pre-war levels. One way for the consumer to reduce freight rates is to buy fertilizer of high analysis. It costs more per ton, but you get more for your money, and the freight rate per unit of plant food is correspondingly lower. Meantime, it is up to the farmer to do everything he can for lower freight rates, on fertilizer as well as on other products shipped to or from the farm. Spotted Poland Association. Reports from the National Spotted Poland Record association at Indianfipolis are to the effect that the association is in a healthy and growing condition. The receipts for the past year were $42,828.96, a gain of more than $11,000 compared with 1920. The association has appropriated $10,000 for awards at state fairs next fall, which means that the various fair boards will contribute an equal amount i '""""""""'"'"'"""iiiiiimi'iimmimmMmi tlllllllllltHlllllltlMllllllllllIMn 1 1 Denatured Alcohol, 75c Gal.!'

While there are parts of Alaska where all the vegetables and many of the fruits of the temperate zone can be successfully grown, one would hardly expect to find wheat grown so near the Arctic Circle as in the Fairbanks district. A recent report from the agronomist in charge of the five Alaska stations state that in the sumTner of 1921, 3,500 bushels of hard spring wheat waj? harvested close to Fairbanks and that a small mill has been installed to grind it. He also cites the fact that about 1,000 bushels of the same kind of wheat was Droin 1914. and it was of this strain that the last plantings were made. About 1,500 people live in and around Fairbanks and their flour supply is assured up to the next harvest. It would be of interest to know what the Alaska farmer received for his wheat, also the price of flour at Fairbanks. U. S.
