Is it a sI.5oO.ooo.oOO Country


Tremendous as the advance Of this
country has been in industry and
wealth, it has not eqaled the progress
made by congress in finding means Of
spending the public funds.
The congress that Is about to adjourn
has provided for the expenditure Of
practically a billion and A half dollars.
This Is not the high water mark, for
the last congress spent sllo, 200, 600
more than the present body. That
expenditure was given some warrant in
the public mind by the expense OF the
Spanish war, but the appropriations OF
the presen, congress are not oil extra
ordinary and may be looked on as
indicating, approximately. the mini
mum cost OF federal government for
the future.
And the public mind is not at all
shocked or alarmed BY this enormous
expense. When somebody complained

Fruit prospects, according to N. F.
Murray Of Oregon, Mo-, president Of

In the frst place the fall was favorable
for the wood OF the fruit trees OF ell
kinds to mature. Every tree, as far as
the weather was concerned, went into
the winter in a good condition.
Again the winter has been too mild
to hurt the buds, while at the same
time it has been evere enough to hold
their growth In check. The fruit crep
