SHALL TOBACCO FOLLOW ALCOHOL?
(New York Independent)
On July first alcohol is to make its
final bow and retire gracefully from the
American scene. Already we bear that
plans are under way to convince the
American people that tobacco should
follow suit What about it? Is it a
parallel cage? Ought we who have
strongly favored the prohibition of the
manufacture and sale of alcoholic drinks
to use our influence also for the prohibi
tion of the growing and sale of tobacco?
We do not think so. It is not a par -

Who ever heard of a wife and child-

Smoking may be an unwise habit. It
is unquestionably bad for the immature.
The non-smoker may be healthier, more
thrifty, more pleasing to the senses of
his near associates, more efficient, longer
lived. Rut we de not believe that
the smoking of tobacco is
such a menace to society that the•

what we have believed --and do believe
'--about the drinking of alcohol. But
not about tobacco. That is another

THE CREATES, WHEAT CROP EVER
Tie forecast is for ,000,000 bush-
els of winter wheat in the United States
this year, the Largest crop ever grown,
and over twice as much as the
crop two years ago. The spring crop,
it is predicted, will add 300,000,000
bushels to this total, making the value
of the year's wheat $2,500,000,000.
' The figures in themselves are etimu
Wing. But they gain further interest
from the speculation as to how much of
that $2,500,000,000 the Government
will have to pay. Under the hill passed
by Congress in the closing days of the
hist _session the Government is obliged-
to
bligedto pay the difference between the guaran-
teed price of $2.26 a bushel and the
world market price for every bushel of
winter and spring wheat produced.
It is too early yet to estimate the
numerous factors influencing the world
market price, such as the production in
,Argentina, Aieeteieliaread.ebber countries
and the European demand. There will
probably he enough foreign need to use
lilt the surpltis of American wheat, and
the opinion expressed in Washington
these d,Lys is that, while the loss, to the
Governnient through its price guarantee
might mount into the millions of dollars
so far as the actual wealth of the coun-
try was concerned, it would simply be
taking money from one pocket and put -
ting it into another. ' The money will
go into the pockets of the farmer., and
the forecast indicates that farmers will
be more prosperous and possess greater
Potential buying power than ever before
in the history • of the ccmntry The
large amount farmers would recti ve or
this wheat, therefore should find Its
way back quickly into circulation, thus
adding to the general prosperity of the
nation —New York Independent.
THE NEED ON SAVING
The estimates submitted to thr House
of Commons call for a civil expenditure
_o,. V37,000,000 and $350,00o,i l s0 for
war and attendant expenditures includ-
ing credits, during the financial year.

These figures demonstrate the sl,solute
necessity of continued saving on the
part of the people. The revenue ,Hiring
