SOFT COPE

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

PROVING It By Fiaures.

Vermonters, like everybody else like
to hear what Secretary Shaw says.
Lately the genial Secretary of the
Treasury has been talking to the
American Mining Congress at Dead
wood, South Dakota, and told them
that this is agreat country" This
fact was no novelty to the assembled
miners, nor is it to most inha bitants
of this broad land. But the figures
forming vast aggregates supporting
the statement are less familiar. The
Secretary stated that in the last CEN
sus year the output of the factories
and workshops was valued at thir-
teen billions, the products of agri-
culture four billions, forestry two
billions, and mines one billion, the
last named being about equally di-
vided between metallic and non-met-
allie products. But the mining in
dustry contributes materially to the
Others in amounts which do not ap-
pear in the aggregates. Manufac-
turing, apparently the greatest
wealth-producing industry is depen-
dent upon iron, copper, lead and
other metals, and also upon coala and
other non-metallic minerals. but for
the mines the manufacturing inter-
ests would dwindle into insignifi-
canoe.
The Secretary made this interest
ing statement in the course of his ad-
dress:
1--WE produce practically 100000
900 tons of iron ore-as much sany
other two countries and one-third of
the worlds output.
We produce forty per cent. OF the
worlds output of iron and steel.
During the first half of 1903 we pro-
duced nearly 100000 tons of pig
iron.
1--WE produce more coal than
Great Britain; more than twice as
much as Germany and nearly double
that of all countries, except Great
Britain and Germany.
"a peoples prosperity isnot meas
ured by its capacity to produce more
than by its capacity to consume, and
this capacity to consume is in turn
dependent upon the earning capacity
OF the individual, and the earningca-
pacity of the individual is again de-
pendent upon native and acquired
ability, So, if America be great, tits
because God in His wisdom stored
the mountains with the richest min
erals, OVERHEAD the valleys with the
most fertile soil, and then gave it to
people competent, in some slight de-
gree, at least, to improve their OPP
portunities. -
This improvement has comelargely
from the working of the American
protective system, which has built
up the industries and made them
prosperous beyond anything re-
corded in history.

progress made in popular education
in twenty years is much to our credit
very much to our credit. The de-
scending black line of illiteracy has
come down from 48 per cent in, 1880
to % per cent in 1000 wonderful

undying credit of an awakened peo-
pie. This is one of the most credita-
bic chapters in the recent history of

try.
$50 much for these general items
in the comparison. Now, let us look
at the industrial differences between
these two rural States. Sixty-four
per cent of the persons who work in
North Carolina work on farms; for
ty-seven per cent in Iowa. We have
more farm workers in North Caro-
lima. than they have in Iowa. But
in trade and transportation they
have more persons engaged than we
have. In manufactures each State
has approximately the same-Iowa
having a few more. In each State
about the same number are engaged
in domestic and personal service.
We have a few more servants than
they have. But in professional SER
vice the Iowans have many more.
That is, they have more lawyers,
preachers, doctors, editors, etc. The
main facts are that in a general way
the number of persons engaged in
manufacturers are the same in each
State and the number engaged in
farming. They have a few more
farmers and farm laborers.
"Now to consider farming for a
moment-although we have more
farm workers and very nearly as
large an area, their farm products
are every year worth more than four
times as much as ours are worth.
"Not only are their farm products
worth more than four times as much
as ours, but their farm property
is worth eight times as much as
ours. Our farm property has in
creased fifty per cent in twenty
years; theirs has increased n hun
dred and fifty per cent. It is two
and a half times as great as it was
twenty years ago.
"What has caused this difference?
We have rich land. Else u immi-
grafton Bureau and our Agricultural
Department have many sins of mis-
statement to answer for. We have
a greater diversity of soil than the
Iowans. We are as near markets
as they are. We grow some great
staples that they cannot grow-such
as cotton and tobacco and rice.
"The key to the difference is the
efficiency in labor.
"The average income of farm
workers in North Carolina is $146 a
year, and in Iowa $611 a year. In
other words, a farm-worker in Iowa
makes, earns and gets nearly four

from all these delusions. You have
set your life square with the greet
truth that underlies all progress in
democracy-that a man is worth to
the State exactly what he can do
well-no more, no less. His work
may be any sort of work-no matter
what. He is sound in proportion to
his skill in doing it well.
"Never divide men into rich and
poor-your judgments will be wrong
if they are made by wealth. Never
divide men into those who think as
you do and those who differ with you
those who differ with you may turn
out to be right ten years hence.
Never divide men in your mind into
professions and trades-no trade and
no profession gives a guarantee of
the real worth of a man. But ask
yourself every time whether the work
a man does perishes with the doing,
or whether it lasts. Then you have
the right economic measure. For
