The PosTmAsTERs AT PROVO.

DEPRE SENTING OVER three hun
N bred post Offices and nearly forty
rural delivery routes, the convention
Of Dostmasters at Provo is notable
affair. The fact that it is being held
in the Garden City is ample guaran-
tee of its success. The people of Provo
entertain royalty always, and in this
affair they have Outdone themselves.
From trout TO black bass. from oratory
10 music, the programme has been
good enough TO make anybody want to
apply for a job as postmaster.
incidentally some Of the brethren
have announced that all the blessings
OF a good postal service are due TO
republican policies, but since the jun
Tor senator led the way in this par
tlcular line of euIogy, the postmasters
probably thought that was part Of the
programme. However, the postmas-
tiers are not likely 10 overlook the
fact that they are serving all tie

alike-and they are too bright 10 in

smaller offices. In this regard, Titan
has been fortunate as 10 the personnel

An OLD AGE RECIPE

DAVID MILEY Of New York state
II is 103 years of age. His father
lived TO be 125. according to the Miley
family Bible, and David confidently
expects to break the old gentleman's
record. At 103 he Is hale and hearty
and bids fair to achieve his ambition.
Naturally Mr.. Miley is besieged with
inquiries as TO how he has managed
to live so long. Ills answer to such
questions IS a model of terse lucidity-
You need not bother about alcoholic
drinks and tobacco if you keep your
blood cool and avoid indigestion" he
says. What better longevity recipe
could anyone desire2 Drink as much
as you please. That's satisfactory TO
some people. Use as much tobacco as
you please. That's highly pleasing to
other people. But keep your blood cool
and avoid Indigestion There's the Sc
cret in a nutshell. Just keep your
blood cool. Never mind how you do
it. Keep il cool. Live in an ice house.
Sleep in an ice pack. Keep your blood
cool
And avoid indigestion. When you
find something that disagrees with you
shun ii it as YOU would shun pesti-
Ience Don't imagine for a moment
that wEiskey and tobacco cause
Indigestion. Have we not the
Aiiley testimony before u.s. The
trouble is that you are not keep
ing your blood cool enough. Eat a
little ice three OF four times a day
and see If 1t doesn't help YOU NIiiey
says that if people VIII only accept
his advice there is no reason why the
average life should not cover a round
century.
And his advice is so easy to follow.
Keep your blood cool and avoid indi-
sestion. More disaster comes to the
human race through overheated blood
and indigestion than through any other
causes. Some OF US have been led
to believe that alcohol heats the blood
and that tobacco causes Indigestion
Let Us now go merriIy on our way, re
Numbering only to keep our blood cool
according to the 2iley recipe, and 20
avoid indigestion, regardless Of alcohol
and tobacco, so We may live hap
PLY ever after.

our wHEAT CROP.

n IDEA OF THE GROWTH of the
\ embarrassing industry in this
country may be gained from the state
ment that James J. Hill has been
charged with pessimism because Of his
prediction that the American wheat
crop this year viii not exceed 800 10000
bushels. In 1888 the yield was slightly
in excess Of 800. coo. 600 bushels. The
banner year was 1901, which produced
74S, 460, COO bushels. In 1903, 637,00O,o00
bushels were harvested.
In the years 1894, 1885 and 1886 the
crops fell below 500, OO0. coo bushels.
There is some reason for Mr. HIS
pessimism with regard to the 1904
crop. Floods in Kansas and eastern
Nebraska cut down very materially
the yields Of those states, where the
wheat has practically all been har-
vested. So great was the devastation
Of the elements in Kansas that the
years yield viii thresh out only about
50 per cent Of the average. Nebraska ;
crop has been -reduced from ) to 20 per
cent.
Readers who hav. not seen recent
census bulletins viii be surprised TO
learn that wheat-stands third in the
value list Of farm products. Ahead
Of it are cotton and hay. The value OF
the wheat crop ranges from $3.50, 00o, 600
20 $3.50 .0C0. 600. hay from $3.50 000 900 to
S55O. 000. eco. and cotton from $500 0O0. 900
TO $685.. 600, 0O0. Cotton was as good as
gold last year, and the same state Of
case promises to prevail this year, for
many crops have already been sold at
high prices, although general picking
will not be begun before September.
To return to wheat. The estimated
shortage in that staple need cause no
alarm IL this country. There is going
TO be wheat enough for the United
states and millions Of bushels to spare
for export. If the yield aggregates
ar. HIS so-called pessimistic esti-
mate Of 600,o00.O0 bushels it win stiIl
be above the average OF the years
from 1893 to 1893. both inclusive.

Cabin Bow Solves Puzzle.
-(Portland OreRonian.)

When / was a cabin boy, said an
elderly sailor. Il often used to wonder,
seem birds thousands OF miles out to
sea, what they done for fresh water
when they got thirsty.
lone day a squau answered that
question for me It was a hot and
glitterin' day in the tropics. and in the
clear sky overhead a black rain cloud
appeared all of a sudden. Then out OF
the empty space, over hundred sea
birds came dartin' from every direc-
ton. They got under the rain cloud
and they waited there for about ten
minutes. cirlin' round and round. and
when the rain began to fall they drank
their I'll.
IN the tropics. where the great sea
birds sail thousands of miles away
from short, they get their drinkin' wa

hundred miles, maybe. to get under II,

a STEP ADVANCE.

A DOPTION OF ARBITRATION as a
\ means Of settlement between the
packers and their striking employees IS
a long step in advance for Chicago.
The stock yards district has been the
scene Of numerous big strikes and IN
nearly every instance they have been
attended with violence, frequently
with bloodshed, and always with a
bitterness on both sides Tat did not
end With the settlement Of the strike.
The establishment of a temporary
tribunal and the acceptance OF the
conditions by both sides 10 the contro-
versy marks a long step toward indus
trial peace. and il Is particularly sig
uincant as showing the growth OF con-
servative sentiment among the work
ingmen of Chicago.
Ten years ago such an agreement
would have been impossible with either
side. five years ago it might have
bee. reached. but only after hard
fight. Today both employers and en-
pIoyed recognize the folly of a long
struggle that could only cost both
sides an enormous sum and end in an
armed truce little better than open
war.
It was not until TIE trouble threat
ened to spread to other trades and
involve all their workingmen, that the
hackers were able and willing TO name
satisfactory terms; and it was only
the fear of a sympathetic strike that
induced the employers stin at work TO
bring pressure on the strikers Tor
peaceable negotiations
The result is a triumph for arbitra-
ton, and it is to be hoped the final
award VIII prove the wisdom of the
method adopted TO end the struggle

CHILD LABOR.

4 the census bureau deals with child
labor in the United States. It shows
that I,750,I7s children under the age
of ii years work hard every day for
their living and for the support OF
others. More than per cent Of all the
workers in the land are children, chill
dren who should be in school in the
fau. winter and spring, who should
have joyous vacations in the summer
Fortunes are being built up in the
United States every year from the
sweat of childish foreheads. They
work in factories. in mills. in mines.
IN mercantile establishments Day
after day they toll through long hours.
IN unsanitary environments, wrecking
their constitutions, running their lives,
in order that some other child may
have a new pony, some millionaire a
new yacht, some rich woman a new
carriage. The figures are full of trag-
edy in a country that We are fond Of
calling the most enlightened, the most
progressive, most prosperous in all the
world.
