The stock market to-day was more nc.

considerable strength despite several de-
.Selopments that would under ordinary
circumstances have cNcrted marked
;unfayorhble influence. The distribution
OF the dealings was Galrlya broad, and
with the exception OF Sugar, which dis
putcd with st, Paul the leadership IN

manded more interest than the indus
trials. The opening was weak and low

and the news OF an advance by the
Bark OF England Of per cent from to
"a per Cent In its minimum rate Of dis
counts. The high open London discount
rates presaged an advance In the bank
hgure, but In some circles It had not
been expected that the rate would be
put above 3is per cent. The inference
drawn was logically, that the step taken
would ut least temporarily check the eX-
ports OF gold to this country. An inter-
estinS development In connection with
the gold movement was the receipt of
$2,3,5.000 from Australia and the en-
gagemcnt OF an equal amount for i'm
port from that country. In addition
there was sl,S10,600 In gold In Europe,
bringing the grand total OF engagements
including arrivals and not including the
Australian and Canadian gold received
to S70,9SS,929.
Al advance In posted and actual rates
of exchange contributed to temporarily
depress prices. Foreigners were moder-

the friendly feeling of some, at least, OF
that tribe.
A young man by the name Of Bowen
was crossing the Platte on the ice in
March. The ice was mostly out. He
broke through and the whites on The
bank did not dare to help him. He was
given up as lost. A young Pawnee
squaw heard him crying out and as
soon as she got to the bank she stripped
to the skin and swan out to him, saw

fact. She carried a rope in her mouth.
Where is the white girl that would dare

The Food Supply of the Future.

The amount of vegetable growth that
is possible within given area is so
great that the densest population would
be incapable of using It, And even if it
were conceivable that population should
become 90 dense as to consume more
food than could be produced by natural
growth Of plants, there still remains the
sources of artificial manufacture of
food, of which we are hearing so much
of late. And if one may be allowed ito
reason from analogy, the inference for
the production of food would be-what
has actually been found to be the case
in the recent production Of other COM
modities-that what is needed to make
food more abundant and cheaper is
enough population to make sufficient
demand. So, strangely yet simply, it
comes about that in providing of what
is essential for the best welfare and
highest happiness of mankind in the
future, the things which have heretofore
seemed the furtherest from our reach,
nitrogen and energy, are the very ones
which Providence places about us at all
times and in utterly inexhaustible
amounts. The capacity of man to con-
sumo food is limited. The possibility of
it's production is almost limitless. The
very increase of population which the
Malthusian doctrine makes the cause of
starvation, will thus become the condi-
ton Of cheap and abundant sustenance.
So the use of mans brain transforms the
prospect of dire calamity, of misery in
effable, into the promise Of inexpressible
blessing.-From '"The Peoples food-A

Reviews.

rough and rude. The farmer in an old
country-and old countries are old into
which immigration has ceased-needs
cash capital to apply to his land. This
has been the condition of farming in
Europe from time immemorlal Tine
British farmer does not usually own his
land, but the cash capital which he ap-
plies to the land which he rents is often
far more than the fee simple of an equal
amount of land in this country would
bring.
1t seems to US that what the Califor
MAN farmer most needs Is string of
immigration to relieve him of his sur
plus OF land and supply him with capital
to work the remainder. Our boards Of
trade and other similar organizations
are doing their best to promote this end
by systematic effort and advertising.
This costs money which is being sup
piled partly by real-estate men who wish
to earn commissions, partly by the rail-
roads, which wish to carry passengers
and freight, partly by merchants and
bankers who wish increased business,
and partly by taxation in those coun-
ties which contribute to these funds.
The farmers, as such, contribute little
or nothing. We suppose they cannot.
But they can help the state and help
themselves by an organized effort to aid
this movement and by placing portions
of their land on sale at prices which
will be real temptations to immigrants.
The farmers as class are more inter
ested in this movement than anybody |
else. 1t is true that farmers must i'm
grove their methods in order to farm
with profit. They cannot improve their
methods witnou5 money. They can get
money only by selling partof their land.

Capital in Farming.

1t is a common saying among farm erS
that they know how to farm better than
they do farm, and they are inclined to
feel indignant at editors who, sitting IN
their comfortable offices, keep telling
them TO 60 and buy Babcock testers,
subsoil plows, commercial fertilizers,
new spraying machinery, high bred
COWS, improved sheep, Angora goats,
dlshwashing machines, and hundred
other articles equally indispensable; and
who also tell them that they must buy
books, subscribe for papers,g to college
and generally inform themselves about
their business; not forgetting to urge
them to conduct careful experiments in
tobacco, sugar beets. fax for fiber, cow
peas, Kafir corn and forty other cultures
which go to make up ''diversi6ed farm
ing," as we'll as to whitewash their
fences, plant flower gardens set shade
trees by the roadsides, improve road
grades, ditch their boys, and generally
to do everything that can be thought of
to make the farm snug and attractive,
and save labor for the farmer and his
wife.
The farmer hates to be advised to do
these things whose utility he recognizes
as fully as anybody, when he has not a
dollar to do any of them with, and is
warned and knows that he must keep
out of debt. These things the farmer
considers and the truth is gradually
horne in upon him that the time has
passed in America when the farmer can
farm successfully without capital except
his land.
That can be done only in new coun-
try rapidly filing up with settlers who
make quick home market for all he
can produce whose virgin soil yields
abundantly with tie most imperfect Gull

THERE are good and honorable
men who favor gold, but it is no.
ticeable that in this campaign the
men who devour the substance of
others, the men who fatten off the
toll Of others, are all arraying
themselves on the side of the
British gold standard. The men
who corrupt legislation at Wash
ington and at the various state
capitols, the men who corrupt as
SCISSORS and escape taxation, as we'll
as all their handy men, are arrayed
against the people, while on the
other side are the great masses of

who support our institutions and
