a HALF MILLION SALUTE.

There was q ship Of war for every
state, IS In all, ranging in size from the
magnificent l8,OOO-ton Louisiana, just
completed, to the feet little torpedo
boat and the submarines and including
one troop ship and colliers. In three
columns there stretched along the sound
y battleships, four armoured, cruisers,
four protected cruisers, four monitors,
ok destroyers, six torpedo boats, three
submarines, q troop ship and five auxilia.
res. In peace paint Of spotless white,
wreathed In rainbows OF flags, ship
rails mAnned" close aboard" the splendid
feet underwent the ceremony Of inspec.
ton by the president Of the Uuited
States. Associated Press Telegram.
President Roosevelt inspected the new
navy Monday and the salptes fired in
his honor cost little over half million
dollars. But then, Teddy loves display
and let him have it. He has earned it.
Grafton News and Times.
/ The News and Times probably copied
its statement without analyzing the facts
The absurdity is..shown by doing little
figuring. According to the Associated
Press report there we're forty five vessels
in all. Nearly half of these were small
or suxiliaries which carry but q few
guns and 1t is certain that some of
them ct least, have no saluting batteries.
But allowing thst each of all the feet
present fred the regulation presidential
salute Of twenty-one guns, then the to-
tai number Of shots would be 945. Max
ing 1t 1000 for easy figuring, then each
shot must have cost $500 in order to
make total Of $4,000. As these sal
utes are always fired from small calibre
guns with blank cartridges containing
from two to five pounds Of powder, it
would bring the cost Of saluting powder
pretty high.
But any statement of this sort goes in
politics. .z-as the casual reader don't stop
tosthink and in some cases don't want
to think.
There is another misleading statement
in the News and Times paragraph: "the
salute fired in his honor The. salutes
were not fired in "his honor" The sa-
lutes were fred in honor of the presi-
dent OF the United States. This may be
q distinction that is not patent to people
who don't have much Of anything to do
with ceremonies pertaining to official
etiquette, but to the men who fred the
salute there is very vital difference.
The old sailor does not touch his hat to
the officer unless the, latter Is In uniform.
When the salute began the presiden-
tial flag, the sign of the presence of the
commsnder-in-chief of the army and
navy, was hoisted to the fore, and the
flag was saluted, not Mr.. Roosevelt.

WHEAT PRICES.

The fellows that make the price OF
wheat seem to have pulled the plug
from the bottom of the bin. We be-
lieve that wheat will be higher than it
is before next May, but that don't help
the farmers as most Of them have to
sell. We believe that wheat one year
with another is intrinsically worth 85
cents . bushel. Therefore when it is
below that price the chances are more
favorable to . rise in price than to fall.
When above that price the chances are
more favorable to drop.
Outside Of this basis of figuring, we
think no farmer can afford to speculate.
The crop reports Of the country and the
world as published intthe daily papers
are no,value to farmers, as they are un-
reliable. They are mostly supplied 20
the markets BY the men who are inter
Iested in making the price and who do
the peculating. Men, who have large
means and make business sof getting
crop reports are themselves often fooled
sin speculation.
# Putting wheat il store ii the eleya-
tors i inst lending money to the specu-y
5latorsst Is beat down the price. The
wheat isn't stored, il is sent to the mar
.ket, and the more WI eat goes to market
the less the price,. When. our farmers
build their own selesators and granaries
they en- y y Y some extent control the tlass
markets, md wll do q, for when she1
price il lox thsy \ viii naturially ~ least|
