LARGE REVENUE LOSSES FOR 1921 The same forces that deflated credits have deflated the revenue from income taxes, and the United States Treasury will suffer accordingly. From every section of the country, from every city, village and countryside, comes the report of tremendous reductions in income during the year 1920, indicating beyond possibility of doubt that the income tax will be a relatively small producer of revenue during 1921. In a multitude of instances the income reports of large merchants will show net losses instead of profits, due to the depreciation in values of stocks on hand. Few merchants will show considerable profits when these deductions are made. Scarcely a farmer of any sort—cotton grower, grain grower, stockman or fruit producer—will report a taxable income for the year 1920. The inevitable consequence will be an enormous reduction in the revenue from the income tax. The excess profits tax feature of the law will be practically inoperative. These are facts patent to all who have observed the trend of events. There are several conclusions to be made from the facts; first there must be every possible reduction in public expenditures; second, that some means must be found if possible, to make up in part for the loss of revenue from the income tax; third, that governmenta policies must be such as to encourage and hasten revival of industry and enterprise. In all three of these particulars, the Democratic administration has been found wanting. The Wilson regime has not only spent money needlessly and lavishly, but has demanded appropriations far in excess of the amounts Congress have seen fit to grant. If the Democratic administration had been given all it asked, the public debt would now be two and a half billions greater that it is, with still greater difficulty in accomplishing reductions in the future. The spending habit is hard to cure. The Wilson administration failed, also to find any plan of revenue production that would make up for the loss of income tax naturally and certainly following the deflation program which the Federal Reserve Board put into execution. It is true that the administration acknowledged the need for new sources of revenue, but it had no definite recommendations to make as to a remedy for the evils it had brought upon the country. The whole tendency of the Wilson administration has been to repress enterprise, inflate prices, add to the cost of living, encourage profiteering and increase the public debt. It has played hand-in-glove with those who would retard production and has codied the bolshevik element of our population. All this must be changed, and the difficult task awaits the Republican administration which will come into full control of the government on March 4. There must be a reduction of government expenditures in order that the revenue may equal the expenses. There must be encouragement of industry and thrift, hard simple living and useful investment of savings. To all this the Republicans are pledged and there is confidence that Congress and the President will cooperate in the effort to make the undertaking a success.

Bamboo shoots were brought to this country from China, Japan, India, and other countries by the department; 10 or 12 years ago, and cultivation was started at Chico, California, and at Brooksville, Fla. A mite was discovered on the sheaths, however, which sapped the vitality of the plant, and it was first thought that the industry would have to be given up. But on study it was found that the mites could be destroyed with hot water without injury to the plants. Propagation of clean plants was begun at Bell, Md., with a view to establishing large clean groves in the gardens at Savannah, Georgia. Bamboo plants also suffer from a smut, which is carried in the rhizomes or root sprouts from which the plants are propagated. Smut may be carried through the tissues of the plant and manifest itself in the new growth from which it is scattered by the wind, spreading the disease. Combating this disease is another of the obstacles which the department has overcome in developing what promises to be a profitable American industry. WHISKEY COSTS MORE Recent increases in the prices that are charged for liquor by illicit dealers in New York, Pittsburg and Chicago When a whiskey runner sells the shipment to a respected and otherwise law-abiding citizen the blackmailers make a practice of following the goods to their destination. Then they approach the purchaser and under threat of exposure either demand the liquor or a sum of money based on the value of the booze, to maintain silence. This subsidiary of the booze industry, it is said, has proved most profitable for the blackmailers and is reported to be spreading rapidly throughout the country. SQUIRTLESS GRAPE FRUIT It has taken Congress twenty years to discover the tangelo, a citrus hybrid, the offspring of the tangerine and the grapefruit now flourishing in California. Its discovery was read in to the Congressional record by Senator Ashurst, of Arizona where the tangelo, now flourishing here in the experimental groves of the University of California, promises to be one of the most popular of all citrus fruits because of its fine flavor. The tangelo was propagated by Dr. Henry J. Weber and Walter G Swingle, the latter of Washington, D.C., twenty years ago in Florida. Later it was introduced into California where Dr. Weber says the fruit is better than that of Florida. In the groves of the Riverside Citrus experimental station there are a half dozen trees in bearing and Dr. J. T. Barrett states that there is a greater demand for bud wood from the trees than any other citrus variety. The tangelo promises to be very popular citrus fruit once it is placed on the market in a commercial way. The fruit is about the size of a golden and WHISKEY COSTS MORE Recent increases in the prices that are charged for liquor by illicit dealers in New York, Pittsburgh and Chicago is due to the increased cost of decoys, according to men in close touch with the prohibition situation near the source of supply in the Bahamas. It costs more to get liquor into the United States, these men state, than it has for the last year, but the cost of distribution has been increased by the familiarity prohibition officers have gained with shipping methods employed by the bootleggers. Much of the illicit liquor is being shipped by motor trucks and prohibition officers have come to watch truck movements closely. The bootleggers countered this vigilance by preparing dummy truck shipments which preceded the actual loads of whiskey and gin. This strategem sufficed to fool the officials only for a brief time. Then the officers began to let the first truck pass and stop the second truck with the "goods." Before long the rum runners were hiring whole fleets of trucks, making the guardians of the law play a game of "truck, truck, which one has the liquor?" This game it is reported here is still going on, sometimes to the advantage of the evaders of the new law and sometimes to the advantage of its guardians, but always to the increased cost of the thirsty consumer. Another "profession" has grown up with the illicit liquor traffic. It is that of booze blackmail. The blackmailers, it is reliably reported, work hand in glove with the bootleggers. CORN CHOWDER MADE FROM SALTED OR FERMENTED CORN Some fermented or salted vegetables like cucumbers, are eaten raw; others like cabbage (sauerkraut), are usually cooked. In general the fermented flavor from the fermented corn. After soaking, place the corn in cold water and salted products may be prepared for the table in much the same manner as the fresh vegetables, except that before being cooked they should be soaked in fresh water for several hours or longer, if necessary, to remove the salt, the water being changed several times. In some cases is may be necessary also to change the water once or twice during the boiling of the salted vegetables. In this one should be guided by taste. To prepare the fermented or salted corn for the table, rinse it thoroughly and soak for three or four hours, changing the water frequently. In general it will be found more satisfactory to remove practically all the acid and bring to a boil again, and cook until tender. The cooked salted or fermented corn may be used in many ways. The following recipe for corn chowder is recommended by household specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture: Corn Chowder 3-4 pound cold beef, or 1-2 pound of salt pork or bacon. 2 potatoes. 1 onion and 1-2 green pepper. 1 1-2 cups cooked corn or more. 1 cup tomatoes. 3 tablespoons of flour. 1 cup of milk or cream. film form and about 500 reels now are in circulation in farming communities throughout the country. The agricultural films show the effect of plant and animal diseases, poor forestry, and similar features; and at the same time show how they are being combated. A recent release of this sort is entitled "Good-bye Boll Weevil," which is doing effective work in informing cotton growers of now methods devised by the department for fighting this destructive pest. Another department movie shows how to select a laying hen exhibiting all the points to be observed in selecting the foundation of a successful flock Another shows the entire development of an egg into a chicken. Silo construction, an undertaking which many farmers have been slow in attempting, is demonstrated in those motion pictures, in a way which has encouraged the building of many silos by men who supposed they could not afford it. Farmers in one part of the country are given a glimpse of haw farmers work in other sections. They can see sheep and cattle on the Western plains and they can get a new idea of their importance to the country. Road making and its desirability is convincingly illustrated. Department of Agriculture motion picture goes to many sections where motion pictures have never before been shown. In the last year more than two million persons, it is believed saw some of them. The films are intended primarily for the use of the extension and field workers of the department and official cooperating institutions. However, others desire to borrow films may make application through their county agent or other department field workers, the Director of Extension of their State Agricultural college, or other officially cooperating agency, and the films will be furnished, so far as they are available Films are furnished free except for the cost of transportation, which is paid by the borrower. The Department has found that the showing of films on circuits make it possible to get the maximum service from pictures. However, because of the limited number of films owned by the department it is more practical for institutions or organized associations to buy prints of the department films from a commercial manufacturer, at a cost of 4 cents a foot. One of the reasons motion pictures have not been more extensively shown in the rural districts is the necessity The following recipe for corn chowder is recommended by household specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture: Corn Chowder 3-4 pound cold beef, or 1-2 pound of salt pork or bacon. 2 potatoes. 1 onion and 1-2 green pepper. 1 1-2 cups cooked corn or more. 1 cup tomatoes. 3 tablespoons of flour. 1 cup of milk or cream. 1 teaspoon salt. 1-4 teaspoon pepper. Cut the beef or pork into cubes; cover with water. Add the tomatoes and cook slowly for about two hours. Then add the potato, onion, pepper, corn and seasonings. Cook until the vegetables are tender. Mix the flour with a little cold water, add the other ingredients and cook slowly for 5 or 10 minutes. Add the milk or cream. Serve hot.

HARRY FELLINGE The Department has found that the showing of films on circuits make it possible to get the maximum service from pictures. However, because of the limited number of films owned by the department it is more practical for institutions or organized associations to buy prints of the department films from a commercial manufacturer, at a cost of 4 cents a foot. One of the reasons motion pictures have not been more extensively shown in the rural districts is the necessity of electric current. This necessity is being met by the use of portable power plants. There are a number of special plants which can be carried on a motor truck trailer. There also is a lighting unit which can be attached to an ordinary automobile motor. A folding screen is also carried with these outfits. Sometimes this screen is spread on a side of a building or is stretched between trees, and sometimes the motor is run close to a building and the current carried to a projector inside.
