VACATIONS.

Men of sedentary occupations wh'
have the outdoor vacation habit-ant
most office workers have it-too Otter
come home complaining of WEAKNESS
The sedentary man chained thru the
| year to his desk When he goe!
afield overdoes himself. He set.
his fabby muscles to the labor
of the oar like ancient galley
slave, tramps more miles daily than he
is wont to do in month at home and
wonders at the strained and carried
muscles that result from his strenu-
osity.
No man whose habits are physically
sloth need expect the change from
physical idleness to activity to set
him up and recreate him 1t does him
good but it fails far short of what it
might be. He should get ready for his
vacation by tenapering his body to the
strain that an active vacation brings.
Sticking to desk, with an occasional
game of billiards or short walk as an
appetite maker is not good prepara-
ton for vacation. Sitting eight hours
day men grow obese, fatty, clumsy,
thick of wind, inert. To spring out of
this physical laziness into the extreme
labor of hunting or fishing trip is
a dangerous overstrain on organs
weakened by disuse Out door vaca-
lions are good but their two weeks or
ten days of hard work will not SUD-
ply the nerve force and vigor neces-
sary to j.. a years inertia. President
Roosevelt, physically the strongest
president since Lincoln, guards and
supports his strength by daily exercise.
He is prepared for work of play. If
the office man would understand the
delights of outdoors, get the best out
of his vacation and come home strong
instead Of weak, rested instead OF
weary, he will do we'll to take a leaf
from the presidents book Before TAX
irg his vacation let him take regular
outdoor exercise for a few weeks,
string up the faced muscles and cul-
tlvste his capacity to enjoy his outing.
Strong minds in strong bodies are
the results of change and exercise.
Every man needs vacation. Workers
on the same round day after day
grow "tracksick" like an overworked
race horse. BY all means take vaca-
tons, but double their comfort and
value by physical preparation.

they do it consistently when he re-

The RENTERS DISTRESS.

The trouble experienced by Monona
county farmers in their inability to
earn rental affording owners a fair
income on the value of their lands is
one Of the anomalies of the land bust
ness Practically all other values are
determined by their income bearing
capacities but land seems to al
ways be worth more than the price on
which it will earn six per cent and
owners actually refuse to rent it at an
income basis on which the renter can
come out even.
OF course some Of The trouble is due
to the renter himself for IL he had
plenty of capital with which to buy
livestock and could lease land for
long period and IL he were
first class farmer he could easily make
Monona county land pay SIS per acre
to the owner at profit to himself
But Monona county renters are the
average Of their class and are not ex-
ceptional when they refuse to rent
farms above $500 an acre.
Land in this state is constantly
rising in value. The babies that are
born every minute are crowding onto
the land which does not grow in area
until the demand constantly presses the
supply and prices rise. This rise In
value Of few dollars each year is
the second crop income which helps to
establish high values but in most cas-
es investors are willing to count on
this and content themselves with three
or four per cent crop or rental incomes
on the price of their land so the renter
is not oppressed.
There is still another element of
value in land which helps to explain
why it will constantly rise in value In
the face of crop incomes of three or
four per cent when almost every other
property must earn six per cert and
better or decline. Land in this country
is a certainty 1t is sought by the In
weston of trust funds seeking safety
first and income secondarily. The
money belonging to wards of guar
dian is put into land men of advanced
age and experience prefer to leave land
as a legacy than a life insurance pol
lev. Land has drifted into the gov
eminent bond class and government
bonds will circulate at par on two
per cent basis Owners of land, now
adays, should remember that renters
can earn only on one of the three inn
portant elements in land values, viz,
its productivity. Increase in popula-
ton does not help the renter so much
as it forces up the price Of land and
gives to the owner his increment of
speculative income. The certainty in
land as an investment puts up the
price another notch but does not help
the renter. He can not pay much
more than $500 per acre, often not
more than $3.50, even tho some Dutch
man will gladly pay the owner 500 to
s125 per acre for the farm. Land
values and rents cam not be figured
on the same basis as other forms of
investment.

(. In these days of scepticism and ag-
Mysticism, in these days when oul
churches not only have hard work tc
fill the pews, to say nothing of increas-

that more attention has not been turn

many recruits can be secured, always
provided that there was sentiment
universal such as is expressed by 3
correspondent of the New York Sun

Why is not Mr.. Goodwin Smith q
churchman? The answer is easy. Or
If he does, because he selects church
