Prunes. Prunes. Prunes.

Who ever supposed that in the United
States in one year are consumed 10O,-
600, GOO pounds of prunes? These, how
ever, are the figures that the depart
ment of and labor gives out.
And nearly all of this vast amount Of
the fruit is raisN in this country, much
the larger portion of the prune supply
coming from the southern part of Cali
fornia, where climate peculiarities are
extremely favorable for its production.
In Santa Clara county alone there are
$500, 600 trees growing on 8 1900 acres,
100 trees to the acre. The quantity Of
prunes produced in this country some
what exceeds 10, 000 600 pounds, TO-
900, coo pounds more than required for
consumption in the United States, but
Great Britain, Germany and France
take these 10000, 900 pounds. Less
than 20 years ago the supply of prunes
for this country came almost wholly
from France and the Danubian Srov-
inces, and was sold under the designa-
ton OF French" or Turkish" prunes.
In 1886 prunes of American growth APP
peared on the market, and with each
succeeding year the domestic supply has
increased until the importation of for
eign fruit has been reduced to very
small proportions.

DAVID R. FAANCIs' MISSION
As Representative of the President
He VIII Personally Thanl FOr-
ei.n Participants In the Fair.

Washington, Nov. 3.-Hon. David r.
Francis has notified the secretary of
state of his acceptance of the mission
as special commissioner to foreign
powers in connection with the extern
sion of thanks on behalf of the United
States government for their participa-
ton in the Louisiana Purchase exposi-

time Mr.. Francis has notified the sec

he may do SO, and when it will be con-
venient for the secretary of state to re-
ceive him. Mr.. Root has answered that

els at any time.

pate in the exposition at st. Louis, the
department supposes that he will do so

that time receive the final drafts of the

No Self-Made Men.

The era of the "self-made" man is on
the wane. Efficiency can no longer be
manufactured or homemade. Compe-
tition of the present day is too much
for the self-made man. So holds Prof.
Nathaniel Butler. principal OF the
school education department of the
University of Chicago, who is named
as one of the best authorities of the
country on pedagogy. His views on
the "self-made'' man We're lately ex-
pressed in the closing session of the
twentieth annual convention of the
Brotherhood of st. Andrew in Mandel
hall at the University of Chicago. Inc
subject of his address vas Education
as a Factor of Efficient Manhood.
Prof. Butler spoke in the place Of Pres
ident William r. Harper, who was TOO
i'll to attend the session. The term
'self-made man is a mere fallacy,
Prof. Butler declared. The 'self-made'
mans success is due only to unusual
ability. Efficient ~manhood-the a
hood hat ought to be offered 10 the
world-no longer can be homemade.
In this time of competition the world
is willing to pay the highest price for
the efficient man just as for articles OF
commercial use. Education should
mean competent training for social efh-
cheney. 1t requires time, The value
or education is along four lines, as fol-
lows: Physical, social, intellectual and
spiritual. Team work, so familiar IN
football play and of such Importance
in the game, should be kept and made
a common phrase in religion. 1t is a
motto that should enter n religion
and should be closely followed"

tated for business, when a valued
friend suggested a change in my diet,
the abandonment of heavy, rich stuff
and the use Of Grape-Nuts food. I
followed the good advice and shall al
ways be thankful that l did so.
Whatever may be the experience
of others, the beneficial effects of the
change were apparent in my case al
most Immediately. My stomach, which
had rejected other food for so long.
took to Grape-Nuts most kindly; in a
day OF two my headache was gone, L
began to sleep BEAUTIFULLY and before
a week was out the scales showed that
my lost weight was coming back. My
memory was restored with the re-
newed vigor that I felt in body and
mind. For three years now Grape

ton, and I propose it shall for the
rest of my days.

THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION
President Roosevelt Designates Ma
tional Thanksgiving Day.
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER BOTH.
He Asks the People to N
hanks for Past Blessings and
Consecrate Themselves to Lives
of CleunIiness and Honor.

Washington, Nov. 3.-The president
has issued his Thanksgiving proclama-
ton, setring aside Thursday, the Goth
day of November, as a day Of national
thanksgiving.
By the President of the United States
of America:
A Procla nation.
When nearly three centuries ago the
first settlers came to the country which
has now become this great republic,
they fronted not only hardship and pri-
walton, but terrible risk TO their lives.
In those grim years, the custom grew
of setting apart one day in each year
for a special service of thanksgiving to
the Almighty for preserving the people
through the changing seasons. The
custom has now become national and
halloWed by immemorial usage. We
live in easier and more plentiful times
rugged strength faced the rugged days,
and yet the dangers 10 national life are
quite as great now as at any previous
time in cur history. 1t is eminently
fitting that once a year our people
should set apart a day for praise and
thanksgiving to the giver of good, and
at the same time that they express their
thankfufness for the abundant mercieS
received, should m|anfully acknowledge
their shortcomings and pledge them
selves solemnly and in good faith to
strive to overcome them.
During the past year we have been
blessed with bountiful crops. Our bust
ness prosperity has been great. No
other people has ever stood on as high
a level Of material well-being as ours
now stands. We are not threatened by
foes from without. The foes from whom
We should pray to be delivered are our
own passions, appetites and %follies; and
against these there is always need that
we should war.
Therefore I now set apart Thursday,
the thirtieth day of this November, as
a day of thanksgiving for the past and
of prayer for the future: and on that
day | ask that throughout the land the
people gather in their homes and places
Of worship, and in rendering thanks
unto the Most High for the manifold
blessings of the past year. consecrate
themselves to a life of cleanliness, hon
or and wisdom. so that this nation may
do its allotted work on the earth in a
manner worthy of those who founded
il and Of those who preserved il.
In witness whereof l have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this
second day of November in the year
Of our Lord. one thousand. nine hun
dred and five. and of the indepen-
Gence of the United States, the n
hundred and thirtieth.
