Now she must be considered a liability. Cluttered up already with livestock, what would the farm do if all the cows from Maine to Washington should henceforth produce two calves where formerly there was but one? Obviously, the difficulties of planning at Washington what agriculture shall do and not do, are far from Inconsiderable.

Summer Is on us. Heat presses down steadily, so that even minds usually active are not anxiou for the full meals afforded by better books. AU of us vastly prefer the light easy pleasures afforded by gay quickly written novels, moving with a speed which makes one forget the still hot atmosphere, yet demands no effort of the Intellect. The new crop of summer literature now filling the library shelves are eminently suited to a lazy afternoon, a long cool drink, a chair where the breeze is coolest. There are murder stories, western stories, love stories.

The project bad been submitted by the village way back in October, 1933, but the shortage of federal funds made early action impossible. A need for this project has been recognized for some time.

Even staid and conservative newspapers runarUcles on the boyhood of the particular gunman and murderer who happens to adorn the headlines at the moment. Strange, almost unbelievable, reports are heard that, here and there, motion-picture audiences actually applaud the features of this or that notorious ruffian, and in private conversation it is Common to hear such men defended on the- ground that they had unhappy or unfortunate boyhoods In other words, that "society is to It is this kind of mawkishness which helps to make criminal exploits possible. Here is the absence of civic responsibility, moral fiber and discipline on tht part of great numbers of people which furnishes the soil for crime.

To talk about society being desponsl-ble for the desperado of the moment is merely to absolve oneself from all real Interest in the problem and, even more, from any blame. It merely wishes off the menace upon an entity so large and vague that the person doing the wishing knows perfectly well that nothing will be done about it. We do not mean to imply that study of and action regarding childhood and adolescent training are not subjects of the greatest magnitude. 'The prevention of crime is, of course, a problem having largely to do with young people. Out of some eightly thousand Juvenile delinquents in one state, only the merest handful had ever been connected with a movement like the Boy Scouts.

Such movements seem to give the patriotic impulses, civic pride and discipline which prevent delinquency. One of the world's most successful attacks upon crime has been made in recent years in Italy, where especial emphasis has been placed upon training youth in Just "these ways. It Is. a grave and really pressing question whether our vast school system may not be obliged to shift its emphasis from required courses of Intellectual book training, credits, units, regents, graduation, and the like, to character training, discipline and the inculcation of civic and patriotic Impulses. All this may be granted, and yet It is flabby, fuddled mentality to talk about unhappy and unfortunate childhood every time a mature man leaves behind him a trail of robberies and murders.

There are millions of men and women, happy and upright citizens, whose childhood did not seem to them either especially happy or fortunate. But they rose from poverty or from misunderstanding to be useful members of society. Their numbers tare legion; examples abound on every hand. By all means let us, as a people, eradicate slums wherever we can, provide the training and occupation that win keep boys from theft and in every possible way go to the roots of Juvenile delinquency. Crime prevention should be one of the great national goals.

But this goal, necessarily distant, should not for one moment confuse the people or prevent them from seeing the necessity of sure detection and swift punishment for those who, whatever, the reason, have taken up lives of violent crime. Many of our procedural tools in detecting, trying and punishing the criminal are about a hundred years behind the times. Then, too, we are suffering at present from a long reign of civic lam ess and corruption. What is really needed is a clean-up of civic messes. What is needed, as far as many criminals themselves are concerned, is, to speak frankly, a schedule of-speedier and much more numerous executions.

When these things have been done, then let us weep over the gangster's unhappy boyhood. ommended are: 'Blue Marigolds" by Helen oppTing Miller, charming and delightful story of two sisters and Estimates place the farm population at 32309,000 on January 1, 1934, a new all-time peak. their romances: "Fiddlers Coin" by Jane Abbott, human tale of a young )urkitformQreoJtihJShQre-Area man struggle to and his way thru the tricky mazes of romance: Karn's Destiny by Harriet Corn- Farmers' cash income from the sale of farm products and benefit payments was (441,000,000 in May, according to the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. stock, dramatic, fast-moving story Two of the Independent's objectives have been achieved.

Fourth Of July Independence Day Liberty. I came across a little book, called "Mademoiselle Miss" which was sent to me ing the World War. Written by a nameless American girl serving with the rank of lieutenant in a French army hospital near the trenches, her letters are packed with the humor and pathos, tragedy and comedy of this thing called life. "I have an hour of liberty, an unheard-of "luxury. I never dreamed what real work was before, of course; but now I know, and am framing mighty quick how to accommodate myself to the revelation never to take two steps where I can arrive In one, never to bend low over beds if I can sit, to relax everything but the occupied hand when I am feeding a patient.

These seem little things, but Just because of them I am as fit as- possible, though I work always more than 14 hours per day." "Hhe fewer my wounded the more I work with 19 patients an serious cases, one undertakes a great many things one wouldn't dare think of for 33." It's unspeakable this waiting, and listening, and wondering." "When I washed the blood from his face and hands, half -furtively, he took my hands and kissed them, Tm so he said. A few hours later when I looked at his bed, it was empty only a pool of blood on the floor." "The last kiss a soldier gives you for his family he will never see; the watches with the priest when all is still and dark but for the light of my little electric lamp and a bit of moonlight through the window." "You cant Imagine I suppose that we laugh and Jest all day? Yes, so it Is, and if you can't do that, you mightaswellget out for all the good you will ever do a French wounded soldied. Why, I believe his very wounds wouldn't heal If he were not allowed to make merry over them, and he will Jest with you up to the hour before hedies." a a a a From an autograph album, comes this bit written by a woman Journalist who had seen most of the big happenings of the world and who, too was facing the opening of the closed door: quiet home an first beginnings. Out to the undiscovered ends, There's nothing Worth the wear of winning. But laughter and the love of friends." a a A number of years ago I listened to two men talking together.

They had fought all through the frontier days, at night sleeping beside each other on the plains, wrapped in their blankets, with their guns beside them. One' man was Colonel Cody, or Buffalo Bill. Always before I had pictured him as a hard-boiled Indian fighter whom I had seen riding a vicious pony and shooting as he went In his wild west shows. Tmaglne my astonishment to meet a well-educated, well-bred dignified man of the world. Quiet spoken, a low voice, he discussed European politics and history with as great ease as he did English literature.

He knew the kings and queens of the world and his stories were brilliant. The other frontiersman was more colorful. His diamond studs and diamond set cuff links and diamond rings were large and magnificent. His stories of Mexico, Its history, Ks birds, and its flowers were fascinating. I regret I did not write them down.

Village Clerk Ray TJeblacker said Tuesday he had not received word officially concerning the disposal plant proposal, but that Representative Mead had Informed him that both projects were accepted. These two projects constitute improvements which are well nigh indispensable.

To the reply that since we have gotten along nicely without them, perhaps they are not so vital as is claimed, we can only answer that in the matter of the disposal plant, immediate action would be necessary regardless of any federal cooperation. Already the village has been notified of suit by a group of property owners west of the disposal plant who are seeking redress for alleged damages, and It is admitted that the present equipment, intended to be temporary, is not adequate for the proper removal of objectionable matter from the affluent. The Village Board is to be commended for bringing these projects to the attention of the P.WA at this time. Both come under the head of "permanent Improvement" and their cost to the village may be financed In such a way as to avoid imposing too heavy a load on the taxpayer.

1 i t-. I ALREADY REFORMED The Association of Towns of Erie County is a reality. Last Thursday evening in the spacious main hall of the Buffalo Trap and Field Club more than 200 representatives from the 36 towns assembled to form a local branch of the state organisation which has been up to defend town government against hasty and unwarranted "reforms' imposed from outside from the dtles where criers for reform are pleased to single out county and town for their special cries of alarm. We think this movement- Is a good one and timely. It were good that the public generally especially residents of the dtles be informed that town government Is in the main more effective and scctionucal than any other form.

Unfortunately and we say this wittvout criticism of the metropolitan dailies whose business it is to print the news the peculiar financial plight of three towns and the conduct of their public officials In spending lavishly of town moneys had carried the tanpresskn that towns generally are afflicted. Which is far from the truth. We would call to the reader's attention the fact that rather elaborate reforms have already been applied to towns reforms which were sorely needed to prevent abuses which thrived under the fee system of compensating supervisors. Henceforth there will be no direct inducement to' supervisors in Amherst, Tonawanda and Cheektowaga to encourage the building of town highways on a lavish scale; the fee being consigned to Umbo, those jobs are definitely "out of the The now Town Law sees to that. lea laah.

In substance, it consisted of these words, "Don follow in our footsteps." An explorer warned against adventuring as life's work; and a banker said there no more was any banking business. So it went. Each seemed to feel that his own particular field was the most limited. Each gave the, inference that some other field was greener.

This is an age of new specialisations, and more information and training are available for vocational gulldance than ever before. As Owen D. Young commented, prosperity must inevitably come.
