A GRAND TRIUMPHANT

Bradstreet's Review for 1906
says that the year just pass
ed is a remarkable one. In spite
of a number Of draw backs, the
onward movements - CONNER
cial, Industrial and financial
viewed from the vantage ground
of achieved results, has been a
grand triumphant march of pro-
gress. Of especial interest was
very favorable crops vie Id.
There was a record breaking cut
put of cereals, and the agricnl-
tural values were greater than
any previous year, The total
number of the six leading cereals
were nearly five billion, the larg-
est single increase being in corn,
The values of all cereals and OF
all farm products are alike the
greatest ever recorded. In all
the financial circles there has
been an increase in the volume
of business. The combined bank
clearings of the country aggre-
gate sixteen billions more than
in 1905, and both the imports
and exports of the country, as
well as the railway earnings,
show great increase in dollars.
Prosperity beyond precedent
in 1906 and the high standard
thereby established make predic-
tions as to 1907 peculiarly diff
cult. However, the outlook may
be regarded as favorable, as
manufactures report orders from
there to nine months ahead. All
sections of all com N unities seem
to be prosperous and spending
more money than heretofore.
The view indicates throughout
in tone a certain reservation as
to what the future may bring
forth.

GULF STREAM MYTH.
CHANGES ITS COURSE, BUT DOES
NOT AFFECT CLIMATE.
Study Of the Peculiar Ocean Current
Shows That the Theory Of
Early Scientists Is
Wrong.

Scientists who have studied the
question know that the warm ocean
current known ass the gulf stream has
practically n0 effect on the climate o.
any part of the United States OF
Canada. and none at an on any part
OF Europe and yet the old theory ad-
vancod years ago after the discovery
of this strange ocean river that lt
was a great equalizer and m0dlher OF
the climate of both America and Eu-
rope sfln prevails in the minds Of
most people
II was Benjamin Franklin who gave
the name OF "Guif Stream % this
strange current and Franklin. like
many others after him erred In
ascribing 20 the guIf stream greater
influence than IL really had. II has
been determined that its effect is
practically nil after reaching north
latitude 80 degrees and west longitude
go degrees. where 10 loses itself in
many other slight currents Franklin
thought that the gulf stream had a
broad sweep ont 20 sea. and that Il
made a circuit OF the Gulf Of Mexico.
Even In his day there was probably
much speculation on what the effects
would De n the stream should shift IT'S
course. That sort of mental exercise
was not INDUCED I'm strongly until
later. when a United States officer
Lieut. Maury of the navy published
what was one of the most popular
scientific books ever printed In the
United States mp 10 that time This
book told of the immense effect Of the
gulf stream on the climate Of various
parts OF the world. and it led newt
ably 20 assertions that mere shit

The United states government was
working on the problem of the gull

ly that the gulf stream is caused main
