15,000,000 PERSONS LIVE IN CITIES WITH SYSTEMS OF ZONING

More than 15,000,000 people live In roned cities, towns and villages, according to the division of buildings nd housing of the department of commerce.. Computations show that the homes of 27 per cent of the total urban population of the country are located in zoned municipalities, and it follows that most of these homes are protected from intrusion of garages, stores, warehouses or manufacturing plants. Zoning regulations provide, by a

neighborly kind of agreement, that a city or town shall be divided into districts in which the uses for which structures may be built, their maximum height, and the area of the lot which they may cover, are established. In line with the zoning plan, certain districts are set aside for residences, for apartment houses, for office buildings., and for manufacturing. Ample provision is made for normal growth of business and Industrial districts, but the builder of a garage or factory is not allowed to erect it within a residential neighborhood regardless of the annoyance and money losses inflicted on surrounding home owners. The department's investigation has fchown that in 1922 zoning spread especially rapidly in smaller places. Fourteen towns with five to ten thousand inhabitants were zoned during the year, bringing the total zoned towns

in this clasa to 23. Twelve places with 5.000 inhabitants' or less were added to the list in 1922, bringing the total in that class to 17. The percentage of large cities which have already zoned remains much greater, of course, and of the fifty largest cities in the country, 22 have zoning ordinances in effect In the entire country, 109 cities, towns and villages were zoned on January 1, 1923, as compared with 55 just one year before.

The Farm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn

MUST HELP YOURSELF The new head of the American farm bureau recently said in a speech before a lot of Illinois farmers: "The farm bureau is a cafeteria business; you must help yourself." What Mr. Bradfute meant was that whatever service of value the farm bureau provided, in township, county or state, was only available and of use to the farmer who took advantage of it. The farmer may join his fellows in pooling, in co-operative marketing of livestock, the sale of his eggs and cream, or fruit, and in collective buying to get wholesale prices

and lowest cost of distribution. He can do all of this because the farm bureau provides the means. On the other hand, he can go it alone; just as he chooses. The American farmer, first of all, i3 an "individualist." He has had long year3 of training in that selfsufficient economic school. He has been living mostly alone and acting as an independent producer and sales factor. He has bought when and where he could, according to his

needs and ability to spend. Along comes the farm bureau with its pooling, grading and classifying. It pro

vides a cafeteria service where men

may help themselves, as Bradfute describes it. This service provides

slender picking in some places, de

pending on the convenience and the

importance of what is provided. In

other cases the service is ample and

well manned: it sunnlies definite

wants. Whatever mav be laekine Is

matter for community decision

PAULINE FREDERICK SUED FOR $36,000 LOS ANGELES. Jan. 31. Trial of a suit for $36,000 brought by George Edwin Joseph, New York attorney, against Pauline Frederick, actress of stage and screen and of her cross suit for $46,647 against Joseph was on the calendar to open in the superior court here today. Joseph's suit alleges the actress owes $36,000 as a fixed percentage of her earnings on a contract obtained

for her with a motion picture company. Miss Frederick now in the east asserts that of the $46,647 she seeks from Joseph, $31,800 is due for professional service not detailed; $10,000 represents a sum she turned over to him to in

vest in Liberty bonds for her and $5,847 is an amount he collected for

her but not paid over.

Seize 200 Bottles Of German Morphine GALVESTON, Tex., Jan. 31 Two hundred bottles of German morphine

were seized at Galveston last night

and two sailors from- the German steamship Glucksburg were arrested. According to a narcotic inspector the sailors admitted they landed a large shipment of cocaine at another gulf port.

FAYETTE FARM BUREAU TO BUY CO-OPERATIVELY CONNERSVILLE. Ind., Jan. 31. Decision to buy fertilizer, twine, potatoes and other bulk commodities through the "co-operative sales agenry at Indianapolis was reached by the last meeting of the Fayette countyboard of farm bureau directors. Former purchases have, been made as an individual unit, on competitive bidding. A committee consisting of Lloyd Nickels, chairman, Clarence Edwards, .1. Edgar Scholl. Emery Handley and Ray Elliott was appointed to investigate the new marketing service contract.

ine way is open and it can help it

self by bettering conditions as thpv

may apply locally. If Farmers Swapped

President Bradfute has discovered that: "In Illinois the income is about

z,ui per larm. He says that agriculture is back to normal in production; we stand in production about where we did before the war. But

never have we been in such straits as

today. ny ; ir we traded among

ourselves hogs for cattle, cattle for

wheat, wheat for corn we'd be in good shape. The exchange values on the farm stand at pre-war. When we trade with other fellows we get into

difficulty hogs for drygoods, corn for

groceries. "Say that a young beef cattle farm er wants to get married. His beef cat

tie dollar is worth only 50 cents when traded for house furnishings. When

we trade hogs for fuel, the hog dollar is worth only 38 cents. When we

trade "wheat for clothing, the wheat

dollar is worth only 67 cents. When we trade corn for lumber the corn

dollar is today worth only 60 cents

On the average farm dollar is today worth only 65 cents when we trade for goods we need. In other words, the other fellow hasn't got back to normal. We got back with a dull thud. Advise $10 Fee. Mr. Bradfute has discovered nothing new as to the farmers' dollar, nor its elusive scarcity. Every farm orator in the past two or three years has told much the same story- It is an oft-told tale. But if the farmer finds it hard to

get his dollar, and almost as hard to get anything worthwhile for it when he spends it; it would seem that the

farm bureau should consider that fact in their dealing with members. Missouri is a well organized state, for example. It has had vigorous county farm associations for many years, and these bodies worked efficiently. Are still doing so, in their own way and among themselves. Now Missouri contributed but $285.81 as per capita tax to the American farm bureau in 1922. against $18,531.10 for Indiana; $27,074.17 for Iowa and $32,951.43 for Illinois. Well, the farm bureau believes that Missourians should more generally affiliate with the national body, should become a vital part of it and

that the varying membership fees j charged by the separate counties 1 should be uniformly raised to $10 perj year. "This would give the state aj bigger working fund and would assist!

the national body in carrying on its national program." The 50 cent per capita tax of the American farm bureau is certainly reasonable. No state can object to the payment of such a small fee for national federation purposes. Nor does any township, county or state farm bureau object to the payment of tiie per capita. The payment Is made cheerfully. The Missouri statement simply shows that of the many thousands of organized farmers in the state, less than 600 are members of the farm bureau fold, as nationally numbered and managed. The Weekly News Letter, official

organ of the American farm bureau, has the following to say about our

state farm bloc: "The Indiana farm

bureau federation has fathered an effective farm bloc in conjunction with

the present session of the Indiana

legislature. The first meeting of the

farm bloo was attended by 54 members. Senator A. H. Lindley was elected chairman. John G. Brown and James Itiggs, members of the farm

bureau's legislative committee, met

with the bloc." Our readers are fa

miliar with what has been done and

what has been outlined to do, or to

attempt to put over, by the farmers in our state assembly.

The live stock producers at their

recent annual meeting at Chicago,

showed that they did not believe in

swapping horses in the middle of

the stream and so decided to re-elect all the officials for another year. F,

M. Simpson, gerleral manager of all

the sales organizations, was retained

at a salary of $6,000 per year.

Reports submitted by the sales of

fices where such have been established

were found very satisfactory. All of them are making money and will have patronage dividends to disburse at the

end of their first year in business. X publicity committee was created to have charge of propaganda in connection with the co-operative publicity work of the farm bureau. Promise a Finish Fight The Columbus, Indiana, correspondent of the Indianapolis News wires that paper a special which opens by stating that: "A fight to the finish between the Bartholomew county farm bureau and the Columbus Co-operative Creamery company, was declared at a meeting of stockholders of the creamery company, last Saturday. The company recently refused to consolidate with a dairy marketing organization which was being formed by the farm bureau. Harden Linke, president of the farm bureau, asserted the farm bureau is going into the creamery business to stay. Mr. Linke was president of the creamery company, but resigned when the association voted against the merger." The News man goes on to say that the creamery folks elected a new president, who says the creamery is

also in business to stay. Forty additional shares of stock has been authorized, to be sold only to cream producers and through these shares the creamery men hope to gain control of the bulk of the dairy output of the county. It is provided further that any stockholder who does not sell cream to the creamery shall be cut off from dividends. This is the status of things

at Columbus as the correspondent quoted presents it, and is unfortunate for the producers, to say the least. One strong, harmonious organization would be more profitable to all and would last longest. . More Hogs in Indiana. One of the statements made in the

Indiana monthly crop report as of Jan. 26, and relating to swine, "sticks out like a sorethumb," as a farmer friend puts it. The report states that there is an increase of 15 percent in hogs on the farms as compared to Jan. X 1922, this being due principally to saying a larger number of pigs per litter than one year earlier. Total number of hogs of all ages in the state on the first of the year was figured at 4,102,000 and the total value at $48,814,000. This compares with 3,567,000 last year and a value of $39,237,000 in 1922 on

same date. The present average price is given at $11.90 or 70 cents over that of one year ago. How much feed does it take to fatten a carload of cattle, hogs or sheep? Here are some figures based on investigations by the department of agriculture: Six hundred bushels of corn and 17 tons of hay will fatten 250 lambs weighing 55 pounds each and make

them weigh 80 pounds. This will make one double-deck carload. Four hundred and fifty bushels of corn and 2,750 pounds of tankage or fish meal will fatten 70 hogs averaging 100 pounds to 200 pounds, making one carload. Eleven hundred bushels of corn, 10 tons of alfalfa hay. and five tons of straw will fatten 20 steers averaging 850 pounds " making them gain 325 pounds in ISO days. Thi3 is an average carload. About Soy Beans In view of the rapidly increasing popularity of the soy bean as an oil plant as well as a forage crop in the corn belt, the bureau of plant industry has extented its investigations with these beans to meet the demand for information relative to the culture, varieties and utilization of the crop. About 175 introductions of soy beans were received from Manchuria, Japan and China in 1922. Many of these appear to be of promise for northern and central conditions. Several factories

have been equipped or are being

equipped with machinery for the man

ufacture of soy-bean oil and meal as

well as for various food products, such as soy sauce, flour and milk powder.

Much progress, according to the annual report of the bureau, is being made with soy beans in . the south, where in past years the crop has not

been very popular because of the shattering tendencies of the varieties that were grown. The Biloxi variety, however, on account of its non-shattering characteristics, has done much to increase the popularity and acreage of

the crop in the gulf coast states. The Laredo variety has been found to be resistant to nematodes and wilt. It has given most excellent results for forage and seed production.
