farm Income
Many different interpretations can be put on figures.
MKht now this process is underway to determine if the
American fanner was better off in 1954 than in 1953. One set
•f figures published recently indicated that the average per
capita farm income was up slightly. It also showed that tax m-
cr retail spending had Increased, as had the farmers’ bank
balances and life insurance purchases.
These figures were supported by Department of Agricul-
ture Statistics which explained that while the national farm
Income dropped three per cent In 1954, the farm population
dropped still more, to three and a half per cent. As a result,
the government survey continued, each farm family receiv-
ed slightly more income last year.
Many farmers dispute these contentions. They claim
that the mystical “average” income is unrealistic, and that
It. doesn’t take into account the higher costs of fuel, fertil-
izer, farm hands and equipment. As a result nf these high-
er costs, they insist, the farmer's economic position is very
poor.
This debate, which has some political overtones.-has been
going on since the dawn of history. It will doubtless continue
endlessly. There Is, however, little question that on the whole
the farmer, like all other elements of the Amrican popula-
tion, is better off today than ever before, although profits
On farm products were lower last year than the previous year.
The TV sets and cars, the good-looking clothes and effi-
cient tractors seen on the farm are partly the result of the
decline in farm population but more so a result of increas-
ed agricultural production and better farming methods They
are also undeniable proof that whatever the tigures show,
life on the farm Is much more pleasant today than It used to
There is rtb such thing as a waste of time if one profits
from the experience.
Lining of Rock
Guards Heater
Against Corrosion
What do you do when a watei
heater springs a leak?
‘‘Get a r"\v one,” unfortunately,
may h live only answer. The
eau ; frequently is that the gal-
vanized lining of the tank has
corroded to the point where it
| leaks—and when that happens
i there’ll be no more hot water un-
; til the unit is replaced.
For areas where the water is
even mildly corrosive, water
; heaters with rock, vitreous en-
| amel, copper or Monel metal lin-
I ings are recommended by the
Coleman Heating Institute of
! Wichita, Kans.
The newest tank of this sort is
one that is lined with a combina-
I tioh of ; vitreous enamel—also
i called a glass lining—and rock.
: The vitreous-rock lining won’t
rust and won’t corrode.
Vitreous enamel transfers heat
rapidly and is used on the part
of the lining where the water is
heated. Rock lining is used on all
other surfaces of the lining. It is
more durable than the brittle
i vitreous enamo), and it also with- |
stands shipping strains and ab- j
sorbs fluctuating pressures in the |
! tank. Changes in pressure can i

making it contract and expand,

once he could cheat those liufian-
sharp cars.
He had cleaned himself up as
well as possible, Out ho knew his
face a moss. There were angry
bruises on his cheek and forehead,
and his lip was puffed and swollen
whore Tim’s knuckles had split it.
A treacherous plank creaked
under his boot. Instantly the deep
voice, oddly musical even with the
angry Imperious note in it, called,
"Kerry!”
"It’s me, Rob." His words came
thick past the swollen Up. He'll
probably think I’m drunk, he co-
llected hopelessly. "I'm awful tired
—want to get to bed."
“You come in here first.”
With a resigned shrug, he push-
ed open the door. "Well, here I
am."
The room swam in front ..of his
e^es. He just made it to a chair
and dropped into it.
A glass was pushed against his
lips. The strong taste ot whisky
was in his mouth, the heat of it
running bracingly tllroUgh him.
He raised his head and blinked his
eyes to clear them. Rob was stand-
ing over him. For a moment it
seemed to him that the handsome,
saturnine features were softened
with concern, but the impression
passed so quickly he decided it had
been the effect of the liquor.
"What have you been up to this
time ?"
"Had a tight.”

"What kind of a notion?"

energy now to try. “She didn t

“Did you ?”
“Yes! What do you think I

"Ail right, I'm listening."

Maybe she's got backbone enough
to do something with you."
"Anything else?”
•That'll do for a start."
Kerry forced his eyes to meet
cncd over the quirt again.
He was never sure afterward
Whether Rob had really meant to
lise.it, or whether he’d just gripped
it- blindly in his fury, the way he
might have gripped anything with-
in his reach. But at the moment
he just saw the gesture and
stepped forward to say with an
ominous quietness, "I’d let that
lay, Rob."
I ought to take it,” Rob said
between his teeth, "and beat some
sense into you. It's been a long
time since I licked you, but you’re
not so big I can’t still do it!"
"That's where you’re wrong."
Swaying on his feet, half-dizzy
with weariness, ex’ery move send-
ing fresh waves of pain through
his battered head, Kerry stood and
challenged the man who’d been
the nearest thing to a father he’d
known. "Maybe I'll never be as
big as you, but I’m too big for you
or any other man to use a whip
on me.”
After that, it. all happened too
fast to be clear. He took a step
toward Rob—a step that the older
man might have interpreted as a
threat. The hand with the quirt in
it came up, and his own hand shot
out to seize the sinewy wrist. Rob
was still stronger than he was. He
wi enchc his arm free, and the
quirt rose high, and cracked down
across Kerry’s shoulders.

The night he’d been carried home

and he knew, with a weary, un-
questioning certainty, that he could
never raise a hand against Rob.

tv TEW YORK—In the summer of 1939, one of ■*
1M fanciest success stories In Manhattan’s iJ>
tory drew to a close. A Special Sessions jv ':«j)
peered down from his perch at debonair Ted Pe ;•
ham, told him he was guilty of conducting an *
ployment agency without a license, fined him $
and gave him a suspended sentence of th; ;*)1
months in the workhouse. The Guide Escort se.v*1
ice was over and done with.
The G.E.S. was the collection of Yale, Harvard
Princeton and nondescript young Adonises hsrdet
together by the effervescent Mr. Peckham for thi
purpose of supplying male companions for lonel]
women, at a price. It was a legitimate, Sbove^
board and entertaining venture and It come* t
Ted Peckham mind now because I have been reading Ted’* newj
Escort service book on the subject, Gentlemen tor Rent. I (Ml t
memoirs. if one of my godchildren had written it, *inee
few years ago I prodded Theodore into • writ1”
career, which he has interspersed with such other project* M
chinchilla bedthrows for Helena Rubenstein.
I found Gentlemen for Rent highly entertaining and, chMfe * t
book—but it has its touching moments. One that seemed pwUCUMrt!
poignant was the part devoted to the visit made to Peskham bf
attractive 30-year-old woynan with black hair, dark lumlfto** 0“
and white skin, good clothes and a hat with a heavy veil.
when the Guide Escort service had become known from one eornHM
Manhattan to the other. Peckham was flying high.
* * * - *
THE WOMAN got right down to business.\ .. — .-
"I am sailing on the Monarch of Bermuda tomorrow. Mis t*M>
I wonder if you can supply three escorts to see me ott." tw ■
•ure and asked if she had any particular type in mind. *T W«t<
tremely tall men who will stand out in a crowd not only
also for their manners and breeding. A*
to be conspicuou*—in *
looks,” she went on, ‘‘but
matter of fact, I want them
way, of course.”
There were other technical points, such as the age of tne
she wanted them around 30—and the fact she wanted each of
to bring a bon voyage present of flowers. , ... .J
Then the woman asked Ted if he could send his secretary out
the room. Then, as if embarrassed for the first time,.she aara. To*;
would be doing me a great service if—well, I understand it e not donejl
but couldn’t you possibly make an exception this once and pltaep letjj
one of the escorts kiss me goodby?” .,
Ted started to tell her that was against the house rule that read^
“Under no conditions become personally involved with a client. How-
ever there was, he wriUs, "something desperately sad in her eye*»
that made me waver. Of course,” he said finally, "my escorts are ex*,
pressly forbidden all intimacies, but if it’s on the cheek and in full
view of—”
"That will be fine.”
« * » *
EXCEPT THAT THE WOMAN was so obviously unhappy, Peck-
ham would have laughed at the "ridiculous pomposity” with which
thev were discussing a single kiss. She got up to go and gave him
her hand She told him he'd been understanding and ahe thanked him
' As”she'turned to go,” Ted says, "the veil swung a little away ft; t
her face and on one cheek I saw the red scars which nearly cove- 1
that side of her face, as if she had been horribly burned.
"I was left to draw by own conclusions, for when my escorts tu i l
in their reports, I learned nothing from them beyond th fact tl t
the sailing had taken place according to plan and tha Tor g. t
measure, all three of them had kissed her goodby. No on* mention; 1
♦ no scars.”
