There never was time in our his
tory when the farmer had more need
to use his brains than now. What,
with Rural Free Delivery, daily pap
ers, and market reports, and the con-
sequent and keen competition in the
business, the farmer simply must
tudy his business. He cannot go to
school. The farm paper must be his
text book. What better way than to
subscribe for the Kansas Farmer at
our clubbing rate and thus patronize
two home institutions and secure
farm paper that has stood for thirty
eight years without a rival in Kansas.
You need 1t. Send us sl.25 and we
will send you the KANSAS FARMER
and Chanute TIMES for one year.

BUBBLE PRICKED

olohiN1 ~ DoiOOhi as " =
peka the other day it exploded with
loud report. The Governor and
his convention had been misled into
the belief that reciprocity treaties
with Mexico would greatly enlarge
the market for Kansas products.
Congressman Long,in the most con
vincing manner possible, showed
that the farmers of Kansas had little
to gain and much to loose through
reciprocity treaties with Mexico,
and that ended the Mexican feature
of the discussion,
In 1901 the total exports of Mexi-
CO to the United States were valued
at So, 900 900. Of this total $751;
900 900 worth came in duty free
and only Sc, 900, 900 worth paid
duty. OF the Mexican exports on
which we collect duty, the principal
items are cattle, hides and lead ore.
If we were to negotiate reciprocity
treaties with Mexico, that country
would expect concessions on these
items, as indeed there is little of
anything else to form a basis of
Now, cattle, hides
and lead ore are leading products
of Kansas, and Kansas doesn't want
the duty on these articles lowered,
particularly as there is no market in
Mexico for any considerable por-
ton of her agricultural products.
Last year Mexico imported from
the United States only So, 100 900
worth of wheat, -four, corn, oats,
butter, ETC., and if Kansas had the
whole of this trade it wouldn't
amount to half of her commerce in
poultry alone.
But there is still another view of
the Mexican situation which those
who engineered the Governors reel
procity convention did not consider
at all. Mexico doesn't want any
reciprocity treaties with the United
States. She is perfectly satisfied
with tariff conditions as they already
stand. Recently, in an editorial,
the Mexican Herald pointed out this
fact and rejoiced in 1t nightly.
Mexico is striving to build up her
manufacturers and develop her ag
riculture. It is the frank comics
sion of herleading statesmen that
the silver standard is adhered to
because 1t cheapens labor and the
cost of raw products, and gives an
opportunity for the upbuilding of
IL Mexico should
lower her Tariffs on any of the pro-
ducts of the United States she would
weaken by just that much her pro-
