As far as the per cent goes, Simp-
son county shows the most remarkable
increase in the valuation of its land roll
of any county that has yet reported.
In 1896 the total valuation of real
estate in that county was SO 16, 900, and
now it is increased $546, 900, an in
crease of SO per cent. No other county
can approach this percentage, al
though, of course, many Of them show
larger valuati )ns.

College life furnishes wonderful op-
portunities for the boys and girls OF
America. But college life docs not
furnish everything. Business men
often overestimate the advantages
which must, as they think, come to
their sons and daughters in college.
While no one can pass four years in
study without some gain. still it ia the
minority in any college class that
makes any deep mark on the life OF
the world. The principal advantage OF
an education in college is the power to
Judge between the popular notions
which have no scientific or historic
value and the facts and principles
which are part of the established and
growing fund Of knowledge accumu-
lating In the custody Of learned men.
To know where to look for knowledge
when it is wanted, and how to test it
when found. Is better than any store
of facts which may be laid up in the
memory. observes The Christian

A X. of l.. Statement Regarding Tive
Firms of Bakers.
The question of the friendiiness of The
firms of Corby Brothers and Berens &
Son, bakers, to organized labor, withou
regard to what national organization theil
employees may be attached. is set forth !,
the following report made by a commit
tee, appointed to investigate the matter:
washington, D. c., June %, 1900.
ITO whom 1t may concern:
This is to certify that the under
signed committee appointed by the
General Assembly of the knights of
Labor, to make an investigation into
the standing OF Local Assembly No.
1046. Bakers Drivers, also Local As
sembly No. 1889, Bakers, the members
of which are employed at Berens &
Sons bakery and also at Corby Broth
ers' bakery, respectfully report:
THAT they find these two assem-
blies to have been in good standing
with organized labor for many years.
Receiving better wages and shorter
hours OF labor than is given in any
other bakery in the city Of Washing
ton; also that the bakeries where these
men are employed are strictly union
shops
1UuI CUllll1llttt tutl
that any attack made upon these two
firms tCorby Brothers and Berens g.
SOM is unfair, and should not be up
held by any union man, no matter TO
what branch OF organized labor he may
claim TO be attached. 1t should not be
the work of men claiming to be union
men to attack employers who employ
only union men and give them union
pay and union hours. leaving it to the
men themselves to choose TO what or
ganization they desire to be attached.
I'VE, your committee, therefore ap-
peal to all fair-minded men and their
friends to give their support to these
union bakers by purchasing their prod
uct.
Your committee again declare that
the firms of Corby Brothers and Berens
& Son make strictly union bread for
the reason that they have only union
men in their employment.
