The
BULL’S EYE
Meeting the “Bull”
Durham Smoker
Face to Face
I am just making, as the Politician
*ays, “A swing around the Circle,”
to see what was going on in “Real
America.” I had been in NewYork
so lonp, I was getting a kind of a Sub-
way ‘ Slant’’ on things. 1 was be-
coming as narrow as a Metropolitan
NewspaperEditorialWriter. My eye-
sight was getting so poor I couldn’t
see beyond the Hudson River, and
my mind wouldn’t function farther
away than Albany, N. Y.
1 knew that NewYork was‘‘amus-
ing the world,” but I wanted to meet
the fellow who was “feeding it.”
I am kinder oddly constituted. You
can cut off my amusement, but if my
food stops you are going to have an
argument on your hands.
I, as Editor and Proprietor of the
Bull’s Eye, wanted to meet not only
the readers, but the consurrurs of TH1S
Wonderful Product of OURS. (The
American Tobacco Company and
me.) Well, 1 wish you could see the
type of Men they were, Big fine
healthy upstanding He-Men. They
were not the little Anemics that has
to tap his Cigarette on the box before
he can smoke it. They were our Pro-
ducers of our Necessities of Life.
When I saw the type of He-Men
smoking “Bull” Durham, it almost
made me cry, that I waan’ t a smoker
myself.

P.S. There will be another piece here
a few weeks from now. Look for it

“Hot pack" canning is the method
now recommended by the United
States Department of Agriculture in!
its latest bulletin on home canning. |
The advantages of both the old-
fashioned open-kettle method and the!
cold-pack method are combined in the
hot pack.
In the so-called open-kettle meth-1
od the material to be canned is cook-J
| ed directly in an open vessel as a
j means of killing the bacteria, and,
jthen filled into sterilized jars and1
J sealed immediately. This method is.
I suitable only for fruits and tomatoes, |
and has certain disadvantages, even»
with them. One is the necessity fori
sterilizing the jars before they arej
filled; another is the danger of con-J
tamination during filling, or the in-1
corporation of air containing micro-!
organism^ likely to cause spoilage.
The term “cold pack” has been ap-
plied to the method in which the ma- j
terial is packed cold into the contain-I
ers and then processed. The chief J
disadvantage of this method is thatj
when the material is packed cold a<
longer time ri required for that at the I
center of the can to reach the tern-
J
perature of the tanner. This is es-.
pecially true in the case of vegetables
that are thick and pasty, such as
com, for they heat through very
slowly. Some fruits, however, with a
large proportion of added liquid, may
heat through quickly and be success-
fully canned by this method, but the
shrinkage is sometimes considerable.
In the “hot pack” method a short
pre-cooking of the material is used to
wilt and shrink it so as to facilitate
packing. Any inclosed air is driven
out. The material is then filled into
the containers boiling hot and pro-
cessed immediately, either by the wat-
er bath, if fruits or tomatoes, or in
a steam-pressure eanner, in the case
of nonacid vegetables. Containers so
packed may be sealed without the
usual exhaust, and the time required
for the material to reach the tempera-
ture of the eanner is decreased for
containers of all sizes.

MEN
Men are what women marry. They
have two feet, two hands and some-
times two wives but never more than
one collar and one idea at one time.
Like Turkish cigarettes, men are
all made of the same material; the
only difference is that some are a
little better disguised than others.
Generally speaking, they may be
divided into three classes; husbands,
bachelors and widowers. An eligi-
ble bachelor is a mass of obstinacy
entirely surrounded by suspicion.
Husbands are of three Varieties.
Prizes, surprises and consolation
pries..
Making a husband out of a man
is one of the highest plastic- arts
kifown to civilization. It requires
science, sculptors, common sense,
charity.
It is a physiological marvel that a
soft, fluffy, tender, violet scented
sweet little thing like a woman should
enjoy kissing a big awkard, stubby
chinned, tobacco synd bay rum scent-
ed thing like a man.
If you flatter a man it frightens
him to death, and if you don’t, you
bore him to death. If you permit
him to make love to you he gets
tired of you in the end, and if you
don't he gets tired of you in the be-
ginning.
If you believe him in everything
you soon cease to interest him, and
if you argue with him in everything
you soon cease to charm him, if yop
believe all he tells you he thinks
you are a fool; and if you don’t, he
thinks you are a cynic.
If you wear gay colors and rough
and a startling hat, he hesitates to
take you out; if you wear a little
brown toque and a tailor made, he
takes you out and stares all evening
at a woman in gay colors, rough and
a startling hat.
If you join in his* gayeties and
approve him in smoking, he swears
that you are driving him to the devil
and if you don’t approve of his smok-
ing and urge him to give up his gay-
itie* he vows you are driving him
to the devil. If you are the cling-
ing vine type, be doubt* whether yoa
have a brain and if you are a mod-
ern woman, he doubt* whether you
have a heart. If you are silly, he
longs for a bright mate; and if you
are brilliant and intelligent, he
longs for a playmate. If you are
popular with other men, he ia jeal-
ous; and If you are not, he hesitate*
to marry a wallflower.

Here are a few simple facts in re-
gard to public ownership and opera-
tion of electric, light and power com-
panies which are often overlooked.
Are public officials any more com-
petent, honest or efficient than pri-
vate citizens? Is there any reason to
think they could operate a publicly
owned plant as well as, or better than
private managers?
Private plants are now regulated
by public officials in public service
commissions, and only allowed a
reasonable return on their invest-
ment. Would investors put money
into a public plant, if they could not
receive a reasonable return?
If the public plant is self-support-
ing and does not draw on the general
taxpayer for any of its expenses,
what could it save over a private
plant except taxes, which are not
charged against a public plant? Such
taxes would not be eliminated, how-
ever; they would simply be trans-
ferred and assessed against other tax-
able property.
To prove these simple facts, the
Montreal, Canada, Light, Heat and
Tower Company showed that it paid
$783,000 federal income tax assess-
ed against the company for 1925.
Somebody had to furnish this money
to support the government. Power
users in Toronto and Winnipeg es-
caped a similur tax because the
plants were publicly owned. The
tax, however, had to he paid by oth-
er citizens, many of whom could get
no benefit from the publicly owned
plant*. The Montreal company show-
ed its customers that if it had been
exempted from paying a federal in-
come tax, as were publicly owned
companies, it could have reduced its
electric rate from 8 1-2 to 2. 88 cents
per kilowatt-hour, and its ,trs rate
from $1.10 per thousand to VI rent*.
The question to consider, is not
whether rates will be cheaper under
public ownership, hut who will pay
neceasary taxes which publicly owned
plant* escape?

Early boll-weevil infestation is
fairly heavy this year, according to
the United States Department of
Agriculture. In Louisiana early in-
festation is much heavier than last
year, and much heavier in the south-
ern than in the northern part of the
State. Mississippi Valley territory in
general may expect from a medium
to heavy infestation, decreasing to
the eastward but with sufficient
weevils present to do serious dam-
age provided summer weather con-
ditions are favorable. In Texas the
weevii population is s i re luted in a
large portion of the State that very
abnormal weather conditions would
be required to cause seriou* damage.
Summer conditions will be the final
factor in deterJoining damage. At

ably lower than was indicated by em-
ergence in Ala’eh.
A MAN’S PRAYER
“Teach me that sixty minutes
make an hour, sixteen ounces one
pound, and one hundred cents one
dollar. Help me to live so that I
can lie down at night with a clear
conscience and unhaunted by the
faces of those to whom 1 have
brought pain. Grant thut I may earn
my meal ticket on the square and
that on earning it, I may do unto
others as I would have them do unto
me. Deafen me to the jingle of tain-
ted money and the rustle of unholy
skirt*. Blind me to the fault of the
other fellow and reveal to me mine
own. Guide me so that when each
night. I look across the’ table at my
wife, who has been a blessing to me,
I will have nothing to conceal. Keep
me young eneough to laugh with lit-
tle children and sympathetic enough
to be considerate of old age. And
when comes the dny of darkened
shades and smell of flowers, and
tread of footsteps in the front yard
make the ceremony short and the
epitaph simple: “Here lies a man.”
