It really does look as it,, since a barge
canal will cost SO much, the time is ripe
for the federal government and the state
Of New York to unite in a great. ship
canal work. If one of the objects of the
canal is to offset Canadian canals it can
best be subserved by a ship canal.

The UnYarniShed Truth.

An exchange says: An editor recent y announced that for just one Issue he would tell the truth the whole truth, naked and un- vanished. That is the truth was naked aud unyarlished. Here is one item from that issue of his paper: Married-Miss Sylvia Smith to James Caraham, last Saturday at the baptist parson- age. The bride Is d very ordI- nary glrl about town who doesn't know any more than a rabbit abont cooking, and never helped her poor mother three days in her life. She is not beauty by q long shot, and has a galt like a fat duck. The groom is known as an up-to-date Ioafer, and has been living off of his poor old mother all of his life, and don't amount to anything. They will have tough time of it, and we withhold congratulations, for we don't believe any good can come from such d marriage"

INCREASING TOO FAST.

INCREASING TOO FAST.
 According to the statement of Dr. k. Banjamin Andrews at the University of Chicago, mouths in- crease faster than the food sup ply, and if there were not wars,
 famines and plagues to deelmate the races, in time the population of the world would starve to death.
 He also declared that at the
 present rate of increase of popu- lation of the earth the population would be so great in 300 years that every square yard of the earth's surface, land, water and all, would contaln fonr persons.
 However, he thought that 1t was likely that the same causes would tend to keep down the over-pop- ulation of the globe m the future as in the past.
 "Mouths increase ifasJer than the food supply" said pr. An drews. "This, in short, is the Malthus theory, and while 1 criti- else Malthus on many points in substance his theory is right. Statistics show that the popula- tiop increases at an alarming rate and that were 1t not foi the deci- mating processes of wars, dls- eases and famines, the world would soon become Overt rowded with people. It has been shown that the population of the world doubles every fifty years.
 ''One of the peculiar things about tEe rapid increase in popu- lation is that as more mouths come forth to be fed foodstuffs seems to become higher. l have not the least doubt that foods will be higher i'll the future than they are now. do not think that will ever be IS cheap as they have been before. Meats will cost more in spite of the fact that probably the future popula tion considered IS Il whole will he less able to buy them than they are now.
 "How to keep down the popu- lation of the globe and keep the earth from becoming overctowd- ed with people is d great prob- lem. There must be checks put on the incl ease in our numbers. There might be two methods-one called the prlvitive and one the positive method. By the positive we mean by wars and dis eases and if necessary by immor- al means, put this will not do. The only way, then, is by privi. vite means, or, in other words, by preventive methods. This pri- vltlve method must also be moral one. The problem of keep ing down the population is before some nations today and will soon be problem in the United States. Some men ought to devote their lives to working out this prob lem,"

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that some plants grow better than others. Soil may be the same and seed may seem the same but some plants are weak and others strong.
 And that's the way with children. They are like young plants. Same food, same home, same care but some grow big aad strong while others stay small and weak.
 Scott's Emulsion offers an easy way out of the difficulty. Child weakness often means starvation, not because of lack of food, but because the food does not feed.
 Scott's Emulsion really feeds and gives the child growing strength.
 Whatever the cause of weak ness and failure 10 grow Scott's Emulsion seems 10 find 1t and set the matter right.

HUTCHINSON THE FARM
According to Amount of Trouble They are Most Profitable
 Farm Product.

There ire many reasons why
 poultry raising can be made pro-
 fitable on a farm, Que very inn
 portant reason is that all the food
 necessary to raise chickens is
 grown on the farm, ready for use.
 A great part of the living of q
 chicken can he picked up and es-
 pecially is this true where cattle
 are fed extensively. Much of the
 chickens living IS made from
 things that would otherwise go to
 waste. The insects that might be
 very bothersome indeed serve for
 old Biddy's relish. All farm ami
 mals, to thrive we'll, need some
 shelter from winters storms and
 summers heat. This Is one of the most expensive items in the care of horses or dairy animals,
 but with all kinds of poultry very small shelter will accommo- date d large number. Just along the same line comes the thought of enclosures. All other animals nave to be fenced in to keep them at home or in the right place at home, while the poultry can roam over the whole farm.
 Another great thing in favor of poultry raising IS the comparative ease with which it can be done. Think minute of the drudgery necessary i'll making d pound of butter tor sale, and then compare that with the labor required in marketing a G0zen eggs which would give the same returns. To be sure, there is a time in the year when closest attention is needed to make q success of rais- ing poultry of any kind, but when that time Is over the marketing of poultry or. gathering in the eggs is very easily done and re- quires no great amount of time.
 There must be onle way of stopping the little leaks in the family poeketbook if farming is to he made successful, and the poultry and eggs to take to town Is just tue right thne to stop that leak. If the egg and chicken money pays all the living expen- ses, money from tn e sale of other produce can be used to great ad vantage somewhere else. Poul- try brings in returns all the time, every week m the year, just as the family need it, Many cases might be cited whele tarmers' wives have paid all the living ex- penses of large families simply by the poultry sale.
 One of the greatest reasons why poultry raising Is profitable on the farm Is because the eggs and | chickens help the farmers wife in preparing the meals. Nothing we can raise on the farm Is more valuable as food than eggs. Moth ing contributes more to the farm CTS good appetite than good flied chicken in hot weather when other fresh meat cannot be obtained.

Young Men and One Highly Re-
garded in This Valley Dies Sud-
don1u

The sudden and wholly unexpected
death of James B. McTighe, on Satur-
day afternoon, caused Il painful shock
to his friends. none of whom, not even

pired.

frail haelth for ten years or more. His

tack of pleurisy. when he was operated
upon. He suffered more or less since
then.

bondale. where he was born over 35
years ago. He was the son of Bernard
and Catherine McTighe. His father
was a conspicuous figure in the early
history of Carbondale and the family

respected in this city. Mr.. McTighe
had delightful social side and was
always surrounded with friends. par
ticularly in his earlier years before
his health became broken. He was i'm
mensely popular throughout the valley.
He was one of the organizers of the
CreScents Social club, which was cele-
brated for its entertainments He was
likewise charter member of the An
drew Mitchell hose company Recently
he became Il member of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians. For over IL years
he was proprietor of the Elk cafe on
South Main street, conducting the busi-
ness up to the time of his sudden
summons hence. The wide circle OF
friends, whose friendship he always
claimed. will feel that genial soul and
good friennd has departed.
The deceased is survived by his
Mrs. Catherine McTighe, of
this city: one sister, Mrs. G. F. Walsh,

ball editor of the Citizen has found
much to condemn in the sporting litera-
ture of these brilliant young men, but
he cannot withhold credit from them
when credit is due. so he cheerfully
throws this bouquet at them. We
would like to see interest maintained
in this great game; it is an interest,"
