best suited to Washington County
Both are good quality white sweet

Tests show it to be high in food,
value and the .best variety for

Another good variety of vege-

CHICAGO. The origin'of
business administration has been
traced bock 4,000 years, according
to Waldo H. Dubberstein, research •
associate, in the Oriental Institute
at the University of Chicago.
Dubberstein cited a 6-foot pillar,
bearing the administrative code of
King Hammurabi of Babylonia,
written shortly after 2000 B. C., as
evidence that business followed a
definite pattern then. He said the
original pfliar now is "somewhere
in France.” •, (
“Hammurabi's code included,
among other things, Tfoed com-'
modity prices, a minimum wage
l^W providing higher wages for
I seasonal workers and a maximum
interest, rate of 20 per cent,” Dub-
berstein said.
From 3000 B. C. until approxi-
! mately Uie time of Hammurabi’s
| code, Dubberstein addeij, real
property. was owned, almost ex-
clusively by the state and the
church, and there was little evi-
dence of private enterprise.
However1; by Hammurabi’s time,
Dubberstein said, Babylonians had
come to own land, houses and
goods, and it became qecessary
for someone to codify whatever
business laws were in unwritten
effect.
