MEN AND WOMEN BOOMERANG TARGETS.
By Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

How idly we use the phrase, Cast thy bread
upon the waters for thou shalt find 1t after
many days" But no truer words ever were
inspired by the divine sources of all truth.
Whether your bread is sweet or sour whole
some or poisonous, it shall return to you
after many days" Thought Is a boomerang.

this reacting nature; but the greater the DELAY

state railroad commissions FIIes IT'S
First Report.
The railroad commission of Wisconsin
has filed it's first report with the Gov
ernor. 1t recommends numerous changes
in the laws, particularly that the COM
missions jurisdiction over street railways
be increased or diminished The present
law gives it jurisdiction over interurban
lines but not over urban lines. The COM
mission says that while it is unable to fix
any estimate of the value of its work,
1.-THE mere existence of a commits
sion promotes in itself fair dealing on
all sides in matters relating to transpor-
tation."

Relative to the time Of harvesting
apples, the author of a bulletin, issued
by the Idaho station, calls special at
tention to the necessity Of harvesting
Jonathan apples when the seeds have
turned a light brown. If the fruit is
not picked until well colored and the
seeds are dark around the edges, 1t Is
likely to rot at the core while still
sound on the outside.

The dewberry is propagated by tips,
the same as blackcap raspberry; and,
with the creeping propensitles of its
canes, the grower will have no difficulty
in increasing his stock Of plants very
rapidly. If the natural rate Of increase,
however, is not sufficiently rapid, the
method Of propagation from cuttings
OF the canes when in a proper state Of
ripeness will satisfy the most exacting
propagation. 1t is said that some vari-
cites may be propagated very readily
from root cuttings.

One of the most important factors in
increasing the wheat yield is early
blowing. If you don't believe it, pillow
portion of the field early in August
and the balance at the end of Septem-
Der, and in the part plowed first, you
may have an increase of ten bushels an
acre over the other Early blowing is
especially necessary in clay lands. Gen
orally speaking, the field should be
rolled as soon as it Is piowed.

Nut trees, as a rule, have long tap
roots, and it has been handed down for
years that to cut thin tap roots when
transplanting them meant death to the
tree, but experience shows differently.
If the long tap root is cut many lat.
erals are sent out, and thus a fine,
strong root system is established, which
will make a good tree.

Circus Home Near Mendoza

The Ringing Bros, the we'll known
circus men. have just bought large
tract of land on the eastern shore of
Lake Mendoza and will turn it into win
ter quarters for their shows. AS they
own the Ringing, Forpaugh and Sells
circuses and are said to have a CONTROL
ing interest in the Barnum & Bailey
show, it is expected that ultimately all
three will make their winter home here.
The land purchased so far consists OF
fifty acres, forty of which were secured
from the M. J. Hoven estate and ten
from Julius Pfster. Negotiations are on
for the purchase of forty acres more ad
joining the first tract Later still more
will undoub tedly be bought. The land
so far secured cost the buyers $500 an
acre. 1t is particularly we'll located for
circus purposes, being high and dry, with
excellent water and railroad facilities.
1t is probable that the Sells and For
paugh and Barnum & Bailey clrcuses
will be the first brought here, probably
next fall and later the Ringing show
will be added. The Ringing show nov
winters at Baraboo and it is the inten
ton of the Ringlings to consolidate the
three shows.

THE Wisconsin railroad rate commits
sion has rendered a decision to the effect
that railroads may give lower than the
regular rates for the transportation OF
machinery and materials used in the
construction of manufacturing plants
along it's lines The Wisconsin Central
railway company issued circular some
time ago setting forth that, in accor-
dance with it's uniform practice, for the
purpose of encouraging the upbuilding
of manufacturing plants along it's lines,
il would haul the machinery and mater
ials used in the construction of such
plants at one half the regular rate charg-
ed for carrying such freight. The com
mission holds that this may legally be
done by railroads.

getting rid of stumps, and which to be

Bore hole one or two inches in diane

Fill the hole with water and plug it up.
In the spring take out the plug, pour in

A UNIVERSAL fat rate of cents mile
for passenger traffic on all railroads in
the more thickly settled sections of the
country is evidently to be the rule soon
er than some people anticipate. Since
the Ohio state law went into effect pro-
viding that no passenger tariff should
exceed 2 cents a mile, railroads in Ger
tain other states have voluntarily adopt

EDITORIAL

In accordance with the desires of
Porto Rico, President Roosevelt will
be pres ented with a memorial asking
protection for Porto Rican coffee.
The idea Of such memorial has
met with the favor which was expec-
ted, the Committee to present the
petition has been named and the sig
natures to the important document
are now being secured.
The Directors Of the Banco Terri
torial y Agr1cola, in seconding the
plan of that most competent agricul
turist, Mr.. Gonzalez Canton, have
rendered to the coffee industry and
to the country in general, important
and signal service.
The commissioner from Porto Rice
to the United States. Mr.. Larrinaga
has co-operated splendidly, giving
has time, influence and efforts to tbs
success of the Memorial to be pres
ented to the President on the solemn
occasion.
The list that we published on Fri
day, giving the names Of the commit
LCC SppOIulCQ " SCCu1C IAC SI2udbuI-
es-to which other names have since
been added-is guarantee that the
memorial to De presented to Presi
dent Roosevelt will be a true expires
sion of the general desire and man
Hesitation Of popular aspiration.
The idea Of presenting this me
mortal to Mr.. Roosevelt may be quail
ifed as opportune and happy, and il
lrichly deserves the popular support
| which has been accorded it.
More than the festivities and hos
pitality proverbial among our people
this proa Of confidence, shown in the
presentation of such memorial t
the First Magistrate Of the Republic
of the United States, will touch the
feelings of our President.
Mr. Roosevelt will think that we are
country that knows how to defend
its interests. Of which we are not ne
glectful and unheedful, even in the
moment of greatest rejoicing and
fcstivity.
Evoking in such moments the in
justice Of which we have been made
| the victims, by the abandonment and
lneglect Of our first product and in
dustry to ruinous competition, we
BoletiÌn mercantil de Puerto Rico. (San Juan, P.R.) 18??-1918, 1906-11-19

Will be showing wisdom and degree
Iof good sense which wlll surely
appeal to the President.
And at the same time, we will be
giving a signal proof of our confden-,
ce IN Mi. Roosevelt, indicating clear
ly that we have faith in his placing
before the national powers the needs
Eof the inhabitants of this island,
their right in asking for an equal
free trade. We will be proving cur
faith in his willingness 10 intercedc
in our favor and defend our cause
beforeIthose who dispute our rights
This will be asproof that the Su-
lpreme Chief lof the grand Republic
will know to value at its full worth.
Will this not be a striking and
convincing demonstration that we
have not entirely lost confidence in
the dawning Of day equitable re-
paration2
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have been told day after day that It
is no use for US to repeat the request
for something that is impossible Of
lattaiment: the demand for projection
| for our coffee, we continue asking it
because we know that our demand is
just, that it is founded on reason and
justice, and when demands have such
a basis, it is useless to characterize
them S impossible, neither are there
any lnvinclble obstacles which can
/ oppose them, no matter how powerful
ard strong they may be.
| 1t would be a lamentab bic exhibi-
tion of faintheartedDess not to give
to the First Magistrate Of the great
Republic any proof of that confden--
ce which should always make peo-
piles feel perfectly free 10 speak to
their rulers. and which is advanta-
geous for both, because it demons
trates mutual understanding and con
lhdence
All should feel satisfied and proud
over what has been accomplished;
there is no doubt but what President
Roosevelt will appreciate the fact
that we are not an infantile and i'm
pulsive people, forgetting our needs
and the measures for defending them,
in the midst Of rejoicings and fest
lvitles no matter how glorious may
be the occasion.
