tion of the Alexander telephone

The death of Rev. Talmage last week,
week removed from the world one of its
most noted divines. In some ways Mr..
Talmage's career was unique. He,
through the pulpit and the press regular
ly, preached to larger audiences than has
any other man since the apostles. His
sermons had the quality of being reada-
bic with interest by the common people,
and as such, were published weekly by
thousands of city and country papers.
They were marked by simplicity of Ian
guage, and a wonderful originality in
:simile and expression. He was not the
artist of the connoisseur, but sketcher
whose bold, quick strokes brought out
the idea to the common people, but who
did not stop to make finished picture.
this reason, while he has worthyly
ed large share of the worlds at

where there was so much ''lost" pro-
perty. The natural tendency of people
who go to California seems to be to bite
off more than they can thoroughly masti-
cate.
We have had a lovely trip and now
must go home and "take up the white
mans burden" again. What do think
OF California? Well, think North Da-
kota is good place to live. When get
more money than l know what to do
with, then I'd like to go to California,
settle down and dream my life away.
California is a large state, over 800 miles
long, but contains less population than
the city of Chicago. Its resources are
practically slimitless. You can buy more
comfort for dollar than anywhere in
the union, yet living is expensive. They
are moving people. In the summer,
inland people go to the beach if they can
raise the money, and rent their houses
to people from the beach, who think they
must move inland for their health.
Every Californian is living, moving
missionary for his state, but hasn't a
good word for any but his own section of
country. You can find any kind of a
climate somewhere in the state if you
have the money to pay for it. Potatoes
cost more than flour, chickens are high
and eggs cheap, while turkeys are worth
20 to 25c pound on the ''hoof." Cream
sells for SOC quart, yet it takes 3 pints
of it to make pound Of 35 cent butter.
They eat their olives ripe and pickle the
green ones for us. In the summer time
they keep fresh meat in the open air,
while we put it in the refrigerator. It's
a queer but lovely place and the people
hospitable and liberal and it takes more
money to make little than anywhere l
know. Why? Oh don't know unless
because there are so many people who
don't care to make more than bare
living. 1t seems to me there would be
more money in dairying and poultry
raising than in fruit. have already con.
sumed more space than l intended, SO

1t is a true saying, yet sounds like a
contradiction. that the good farmer raises
corn to exterminate weeds, while the
careless man BY growing corn gets more
weeds. One man takes the corn field

wild oats or mustard, while the other
takes the same crop and infests the soil
with more foul stuff. One man masters
thel situation, while with the other the
situation masters the man.-Farmer.
