Mr.. William Alden Smith, of Michi-

OF this government to act if properly
requested by the parties engaged in the
conflict there can be no question:"

AN ARBOR DAY REGRET

What does he who plants a tree?
He plants cool days and tender shade,
He plants the oak and hickory
From which stout switches may be
made
To wallop the small boy that he
May bless the man who plants 2 tree.
What does he who plants a tree?
He plants the cool winds's. tender tones,
And limbs the small boy may climb up
Fall out again and break his bones.
He plants a big, fat doctors fee,
And that does he who plants a tree.
What does he who plants a tree?
He plants the trunk to grow and grow
To cordwood that the youth must chop
The while he would a fishing go
He plants toll, sweat and misery,
And that does he who plants a tree.
What does he who plants a tree?
He plants axe-handles, hoes and picks,
Flows, shovels, hammers and fence
rails,
And stumps to pull and cordwood
sticks.
He just makes work for you and me
The fellow does who plants a tree.

IN the consideration of the Alaskan
Dill IN the United States senate. Mr..
H~ansbrough made an earnest appeal in
behalf of the Carter amendment. He
held that an alien on the public domain
was a ~trespasser, and had no right to
better treatment than accorded a tres
passer. THE American miners" he
declared will not stand idly by and
see claims usurped by men who have
no right to them" Mr.. Hansbrough
asserted his belief that there was a
monstrous conspiracy in the opposi-
ton to the amendment, to grab the
richest gold fields on the face of the
earth, and that the conspirators were
the millionaires and corporations that
a acquired the claims in the Cape
Nome district. $50 long as 1 retain a
seat in this senate said he, Il shall
expose such a conspiracy, and direct
my efforts in favor of the man with
the pick and pan, the man in the sands
and gulches, the man behind the rocker
and not in such circumstances in favor
OF the American millionaire"

FARMERS AND EXPANSION.

Frank Hitchcock, chief of the sec
ton OF foreign markets, shows where
the farmers benefit from commercial
expansion. He says:
Our sales of agricultural products
abroad during the past three years,
1S97-1S99, were oyer 500,0OO,0O0
greater than in the preceding three
years, 1S94-1S96. This enormous gain
affords some idea of the possibilities
that await a further development of
our agricultural export trade.
Wider markets are becoming
not only an advantage, but a neces-
sity. The products of our farms, like
the products of our factories, are in
creasing far beyond our own require
ments, and the surplus thus resulting
must be disposed Of abroad, or we shall
have a constant glut in the home la
ket. To avoid such a condition, we
are striving as never before to increase
our shipments to foreign countries. We
are searching the world over to find
new markets in order that the Ameri-
can farmer may have a reader and
more profitable sale for his products.
"Our control of the markets of Cuba
and Puerto Rico will mean money in
the pockets of our farmers. Under
normal conditions these two islands
purchase annually $50,0O0,000 worth of
agricultural produce, chiefly bread
stufs and provisions, and practically
all OF this trade should come to the
United States.
In due time, the Philippines also
will furnish an important market for
the produce of American farms. This
group OF islands is particularly import
ant, because of its relation to the valu-
able commerce of the orient All the
great commercial nations are expect
antly looking toward China, with her
400, 10000 people, as the most promis-
ing field for trade development the
world now offers. The American farmer

wants a share of that trade. With a
commercial foothOld in the Philips
pines, and a naval base there to insure
the protection of our commerce on the
Pacific, we shall be better able to reach
forth into the coveted markets Of
China, Japan and the rest of eastern
Asia.
The foreign trade of China, Japan
and the East Indies, even under the
present ~undeveloped conditions,
amounts to o than a billion dollars
a year, and of this vast commerce the
United, States enjoys less than 10 per
cent. The possibilities of commercial.
expansion in this direction are simply
enormous. Our exporters are begin
ming more fully to recognize this fact
and to take advantage of it. The re-
suits already obtained are significant.
Five years ago our exports to China.
were valued at little more than S12,-
00O,O00: last year lney amounted to
nearly $4,000 900. Products of the
farm enter extensively into this RAPIDLY
growing trade. The cotton planterSSof
the south and the great wheat grower
OF the north and west are alike bene-
hted. During the past year more than
lo0,0Oo,0O0 pounds of American cotton
We're shipped to Japan, as compared
with only 100000 pounds five years
ago. Our exports of wheat flour to
Asia, in the meantime, have increased
from less than a million barrels to over
a million and a half. Many other ag-
rlcuitural exports of the United States
are finding a 9 and profitable market
IN the Orient, and all indications point
to the development there of an extern
slve trade in the products of agricuI-
ture. Va
The farmers benefit from CONNER
clal expansion, however, is not meas
ured merely by the larger scale of his
own prouucts abroad. He profits
nearly as much from the growing ex-
portation Of manufactured wares. The
increased production of manufactures
IN the United States to meet the re-
qu1rements of a broadening export
trade naturally creates a larger home
demand for the products of the farm.
Every additional pound of cotton cloth
sent to Asia means a better market at
home for our raw cotton; every addi-
tlonal pair of shoes sold abroad means
a better market here for hides of cattle:
and so on through the long list Of ag-
rlcultural products that form the ma
terlals OF manufacture. Then, too. all
the various industries that are ex-
tended to meet a growing export de-
mand require additional workmen, and
these Workmen must be fed from the
produce of the farm. Thus the Amer
a farmer finds that the policy on
commercial expansion results to his
great advantage in the home market
as well as in the foreign market.

FattenfnE CattIe.

A fat steer of LOCO pounds weight is
said to have in it 800 pounds Of water,
about 25 pounds Of nitrogen, Is pounds
of phosphoric acid and two pounds of
potash. says The American Cnltivator.
TO buy this nitrogen to return to the
soil would cost about $3.50, and the
phosphoric acid would cost about 81.
In selling such an animal raised on
the farm and farm products about
$3.50 worth Of fertiIizing material Is
taken. II bran, linseed meal or other
grain is bought to feed II, more than
this would probably be added to the
farm, and Il. would be growing sscher.
while II the hay and grain It consumed
had been sold OF the farm 1t would
have been robbed OF much more.

SOME PRAIRIE BREEzEs.
"a NATTER OF POLICY.

a MATTER OF POLICY.
While honesty is policy
And truth jewel too,
I'd hate to be the person
Who told everything that's true,
Who instead of lying glibly:
What a lovely child is that!'
Must in truth say to it's mother:
What an ugly little brat!'
just suppose at some reception.
Entertainment should be slow,
And we fret and fume and fdget
AS we often do you know.
Who would care to make his farewell
Truthfully to host and say:
I've been simply bored to death, sir,
\ And I'm glad to get away!!"
Who would care to meet a lady
Whom he hadn't seen for years,
Greet her pleasantly and tell her
How much older she appears.
How much nicer to lie glibly,
Lie sincerely, and to say:
why 1t seems to mi that you are !,
Growing younger every day"
Be he saint or be he sinner,
Would a mortal man, fors6oth.
Ever dare go out to dinner
If he had to tell the truth.
Say the roast was tough and tasteless,
Say the soup was seasoned wrong,
Say twas strange how weak the coffee
When the butter was so strong!
When the amateur canaryA5
In the par1or MARBLES gay,
Like a buzz saw on a tantrum
Who would care to rise and say:
Goodness me, but how you fatted,
My, how shrill your high notes are,
| have heard young calves that blatted
Better ~music-better fart" =
If to truth you have a leaning,
It's not always wise to say
What you think on some occasions, ~
There's another, wiser way:
'Twixt your policy and conscience
Just effect a compromise, .
And let what you think be truthful
If what you must tell be lies.
