$500 to $500 trees, are not rare.
These are more than twice the size of
the biggest orchards in Massachusetts,
which has an orchard of 100 trees at
IHaydenville, declared to be the largest
in New England. However, big or
chards are net the rule, as there is
money in five-and 10-aere tracts. which
with the practice of irrigation, have
been made heavy producers. Thous-
lands Of acres of land tributary to Spo-
kane have been put under the ditch in
the last few years and thousands more
viii be added as quickly as the ma
terial and men necessary to do the
work can be assembled. 1t has been
demonstrated that a 20-acre orchard,
properly tended under irrigation. will
net more profit than the 100-acre fruit
farm in the east. These small tracts
are being rapidly occupied by men,
who, while working in Spokane and
NEARBY towns, find time to care for
their orchards. During the three
years the two-year-old trees are COM
ing into bearing, potatoes. corn and
other vegetables are planted, and small
fruits are also raised, the crops, in
many instances, more than paying the
| first cost of the land. In other parts
Of the state the government has in
stalled or is building plants to irrigate
| thousands Of acres of land, and it is
estimated by competent horticulturists
that before 1910 more than 10000
acres will be added to the commercial
orchards in Washington. While there
have been good and poor years in the
history of the apple industry in the
United States, the records show the
export business has been one of grad
iUal expansion.

and are deferred from long trips not so
much by the expense as by the fear
that they cannot get decent treatment
in return for their money. These au-
tomobilists would appreciate and pay
for any such effort on the part of the
people of Illinois as is made by the
country people of Connecticut to well
some and to accommodate tourists.
To reach the beautiful scenery of Illi-
nois one must often be content to
spend the night in wretched rooms, to
eat poor food, badly cooked, and to
carry all ones supplies from the city.
\ shower of gold is waiting to dis
charge itself upon the villages where
automo5ilists are assured of welcome
and comfort.
NeNatiOus local speed regulations
have been abolished by the state law
controlling automobiles 1t is possible,
however, under the same law for one
town to acquire reputation for wei
looming automobiles and another town
the opposite kind A substantial diff
ference will be made in the volume OF
the towns business by the reputation
1t holds among automobilists.

ABOUT SOUTH AMERICA

Some Of the European delegates had
criticized Brazi's unreasonable att1
tude,' because Norway, with over a
million tons of shipping, was satisfied
with one representative on the high
court, while Brazil, with only 1000.
600, wanted more. But the Brazilians
retorted that their country had $4,000,
900 inhabitants and Norway only $3.50,
600. This statement was a surprise
even to those who had kept up on pa
per with South American progress be-
cause the census of 1900 gave Brazil
only 1871 069 inhabitants, and it
was not realized that the population
had increased by nearly fifty per
cent in seven years. But the Brazil
ians insist that it has, and that their
country is more populous than Spain
or Turkey, not to speak Of the Neither
lands, all of which are rated by the
AnglO-G erman-American plan as Sec
Ond-class powers. AS to Norway,
which European compIacency would
put on a level with Brazil. there are
eight Latin-American republics that
surpass her in population and four in
commerce. Brazil Mexico, Argentina
and Chile deserve to rank in every
way with European powers of CORES

A DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH.

Chicago Tribune-DOWn in COnnec-
tiCut the state statistician has been
doing some figuring and has come to
the conclusion that the automobile is
a goose which is laying golden eggs
and should be encouraged rather than
killed. The shreWd statistician caIcu-
Iates that automobile tourists have
during the summer brought more than
$2,0O0,000 into the state and left it
there. Some Of this was paid into the
public treasury in the form Of fines
for fast going, but the most Of it
went into the pockets of the keepers OF
village inns, country grocers, Wayside
smiths, and other rural people. The
average business done amounted to
about $4,000 a day, and it went where
$4,000 a day is a good deal Of money.
Illinois is not situated as Connecticut
is, in the midst of large and small
tiles abOunding in milliOnares. 1t has
on the other hand, large and iIcreas-
ing number of automobile owners Of
moderate means who spend money
more freely than the thrifty Yankees

PAY IN THE ARMY AND NAVY.
Present Rate Was Established Nearly
Forty Years Ago.

The present rates Of army pay were
established nearly forty years ago,
and tne pay Of the navy is based up
on that for the army. When the law
was enacted C1S70) the allowance was
ample. 1t may be assumed, though,
that congress then provided nothing
in excess Of the reasonable needs of
