our Argentine Competitors.

OuT AF86nLlne OOHlp6IlOTS
Recent statistics are startling as
to the extent to which the Argentin-
ians are becoming our competitors
in the wool, hide, and food markets
of the world The Argentine Repdb-
lie has an area of ,O95,01 square
miles, or nearly one third as much
Us that OF the whole United States.
1t is mostly very rich lands, with
limitless prairie, that afford the fin
est grazing, or produce enormously
of wheat and corn. The lands very
cheap, too. The Republic has mill
ions more sheep than either the
United States or Australia, while her
cattle are simply countless. Her
shipments of wool to Europe are
second only to those of Australia.
The wool does not bring as high a
price as Others, because It is shipped
with its dirt and grease, while the
Australians carefully cleanse theirs.
Five years ago the Argentinians be-
gan 10 snip frozen nuNNOH 10

so enormously that they annually
ship more than 100000 mutton
carcasses. In nine years they have
raised their acreage of wheat from

they then had 525, 900 acres. of corn
under cultivation they now have D.

Ralph Waldo Emerson and himself
found themselves led by a frisky calf,
and the solution of these difficulties

A young calf had got out into the
barn yard, and the philosopher and
his brother were called upon to drive
it back into the barn. They pulled
gently at the rope about its neck,
but it wouldn't lead. Then they
pulled hard. So did the calf. The

courage to say that two men on the coun.

satisfied with the endorsement given by
tho people. We exercised simply the
right which belongs to every man in this
free country. For this action the South
Dakota Republican, supposed to be ed

committed a "DamnsbIs Outraged" that
"Bushfield has sold his birihright for a

say so. But truth is stranger than fiction
dear reader, and the people Of Hand

did say however, with their little ballots
that VanHosen lied.
