American farmer is over 5000, OO0000
while the balance against the other
American producers combined amount
to nearly half billion.
The increased prosperity of the far
mer has enabled him to make him
self still richer by developing land
which was wholly or partially unpro-
ductive because of lack of money. AL
luvial land has been reclaimed marsh
, es have been drained, the proper seeds
or plants have been bought for spe-
cial soils. Rocky slopes. have been
planted with fruit trees and legumin-
Gus plants on sandy soil. Arid and
semi-arid soil has been irrigated. I'M
provements have not been halted by
lack OF cash. At the same time farm
life has been made less monotonous
by the introduction of the telephone
everywhere and by the trolley and free
rural delivery in the more settled dis
tricts.
The department of agriculture has
done much to stimulate this growth OF
prosperity. 1t has introduced a win
ter wheat which bears five bushels an
acre more than the old hind, and a
winter barley which bears 80 per cent.
more than spring barley. IT has been
found that the camplor tree flourish
es in Florida on land where the or
ange orchards have been destroyed
by frost, and that datepalms grow sue
cessfully in Arizona. The alkali lands
can now be reclaimed, promising new
development to Utah and States SIM
ilarly situated, while away to inocu-
late soils for leguminous crops has
been found even more successful than
the one hitherto used.
The farm is the strength of the ma
ton, and he city dweller wishes the
farmer long continuance of the pres
ent prosperity. AS long as the farmer
has work for the unemployed in the
cities and money to buy the products
of the factories, the cities share in
the good things of life. When crops
fail and the farmer is hard up the fac
tories must close and the workmen
out of a job look in vain to the farm
for a chance to share in the harvest.
The farmer has enough laid by to
stand a year or two of hard luck, but
everybody wishes him another year
like the last.

AT HISTORIC SPOT
ON HAMPTON ROADS
Where Capt. John Smith Govern
ed Will be The Jamestown
Exposition.

Three hundred years ago-to be pre-
else, on May Is, 1607--three boatloads
of Englishmen rowed up James river
landed at a spot some thirty niles a.
bove the present city of Norfolk, Vir-
ginia, and established the first perma-
nent English-speaking colony on this
continent. They called it james Fort
which subsequently became James
Town. They fought the Indians, were
massacred, built stockades, erected q
church, the tower of which still stand:
spread Christianity became acquainted
with potatoes, were initiated to the
delights of tobacco, formed govern
ment, multiplied and thrlved and final
ly established the colony of Virginia
and laid a firm foundation for the
greatness and prosperity of the ma
ton.
To commemorate all this the James
town exposition has been built, and
will be maintained from April 26, to
December /, on a beautiful spot
on the seashore overlooking Hampton
Roads. about five miles from Norfolk
Roads, about five miles from Norfolk.
It's promoters set forth that the expo
siton is to be Of historical and
educational character. Certainly few
places with more historical associa-
tons could be found on the continent
Beginning with bold Captain John
Smith (who was in one of the origi-
nal three boatloads), and Pocahontis
(who saved Johns life, and whom
we all felt as if we almost knew per-
sonally when we were studying his
tory at school, this part of the coun-
try is linked TO a continuous chain of
events that have cut deep notches into
our national genealogical tree. Even
now, the counties in that part of Vir-
ginia bear the good old English names
of Surrey, Sussex. MiddleseX, York, Es-
sex, Warwick, etc. and that part of
Chesapeake bay right off the EXPOSE
ton grounds where, among other no.
table conflicts, the Monitor fought the
Merrimac, must be fairly paved with
Federal and Confederate cannon balls.
All this makes a fine background for
a fair, and the fair itself, in its phys
ical aspect, promises to be worthy of
it's setting.

SENSATIONAL SUIT
To BE FILED.
KentuCkian Charged With Steal
Ing CinCinatian'S Pref
ty Spouse.

According to a story printed by
the Cincinnati Enquirer, papers have
been drawn in a sensational suit TO be
filed in the Federal Court either al
Covington or Cincinnati. The plaintiff
is Clarence NJ. Thomas, an accountant
of this city, and the defendant Will
liam l.. Grady, of Versailles, pro-
minent socially, and as a stockman
having a wife and grown-up sons and
daughters. The Grady home is a
beautiful one, and the farm is among
the best in the State.
Thomas charges that Grady has
alienated the affections of his wife
who is a very pretty woman, and that
she left him under the persuasion OF
the defendant. He sues for $4,000
damages. Both the men in the case
are Elks. 1t is said that the begin
ming of the cause of action dates back
TO 1903, when the Elks held their an
nual reunion in Baltimore, Md. Ac-
cording to the story, Grady and Mrs.
Thomas met there for the first time,
and their friendship has continued
since.
1t is said that Thomas did not sus-
pect anything until 1904, when the
Elks held their annual reunion in Gin
cinnati, even then it is said that he
did not surmise the full truth, until a
letter said to have been written by
Grady to Mrs. Thomas was found in
the possession of the latter. Thomas
then employed detectives with the re-
suit that he claims he has evidence
enough to institute the suit for $50, 200.

Th0maS'S Bee.

Our teachers fine" said Thomas
to his sister Margaret. To-day he
told us he was going to give us some
bees, and he hoped they'd make honey
in our lives"
Sure-enough bees?' Margaret ask
ed.
mo, of course not. He hasn't any
real bees"
Then what kind of bees did he
give you, I'd like to know?" Margaret
again questioned.
well, sister, if you'll keep still
long enough, I'll tell you" Thomas
answered good-naturedly. Now here
they are:
'Be clean. Be thoughtful. Be ear
nest. BE prayerful. Be watchful. Be
good"
They're funny bees" Margaret
20, know they haven't wings or
anything of that kind; but he said if
we'd take them home with us and let
them live in our lives, before long
we'd find our hearts full of the sweet
est honey"
well, what will the honey look
like?" Margaret ventured to ask.
20, you can't see it with your eyes,"
Thomas replied. ITS hidden in our
souls. He called it the honey of love,
joy, peace, kindness, meekness, and
temperance"
Then, Thomas, hope you brought
the bees home with YOU" Margaret
sighed.
IL did, and I'm never going to tease
beam.

Their Rating but They all Drink.

A number of years ago certain
firm of four men in Boston were rated
as "A l." They were rich, prosper
Gus, young, and prompt.
One of them had the curiosity to
see how they were rated, and he found
the above facts in Duns and felt sat-
isfied. But at the end of these words
were added: But they all drink"
He thought it a good joke at the
time; but a few years later two of
them were dead, another was a drunk.

their rating was the most important

In his pleadings, Mr.. Kittinger al
leges that Westerfield did, on the Sth
day of August, 1906, wrongfully and
without authority issue a capias di-
recting the marshal of Central City
to arrest said plaintiff and safely keep
him until he should satisfy the sum of
$3.50, alleged to be due the town of
Central City upon judgment, and
that the marshal did arrest him and
confined him in the city lookup.
Plaintiff alleges that said Judgment
had prior thereto been fully satisfied,
and that said capias was void and of
no force. And Plaintiff by reason OF
said arrest and Imprisonment was
greatly exposed and Inundated and
injured in bis credit and circumstan-
ces and suffered great mental anguish
therefrom, by all of which he was

Fairbanks for 1908.

NJ. fairhaukss Presidential boom
is quiet but actively astir, and is the
subject Of srowing comment. Every
body knows that Mr.. Fairbanks is in
the field and not i'm a merely re
cepti'e" and mildly deprecatory way,
as some gentlemen in reality quite as
induar.u as Mr. Fairbanks affect 20
be.
But there is "A mistaken notion that
Mr.. Fairbanks is buster than any
other candidate stringing wires and
laying plans against the campaign of
1908; and on that assumption it is
argued that those men who III the
past have pursued the presidential
prize most actively have failed to
reach it.
That is a superficial observation
based, not on any principle of logic,
but on a few striking instances sup
porting it.. But there are instances
the other way; and the Washington
Star, which believes that the dignifed
and substantial Vice Presidents posi-
ton and abilities warrant the quota
tion of his stock high up in the list,
cites few of them;
Jackson reached the goal after one
terrible disappointment and some very
protracted and strenuous campaigning

The Wealth of The Farm.

This year just passed has been one
of the most successful years the farm
ers of this country have ever known
says Chicago Tribune. The value OF
the farm products, including live stocl
is estimated by the secretary of agri-
culture at the inconceivable figure of
Sc, 794 900 900, nearly half billion NOR
than last year, and over two billions
more than in 1899. An increase of "A
per cent. in seven years is cause
enough for Thanksgiving. Over a mil
lion farmers who were debtors ten
years ago, trying TO pay the interest
on mortgages on their farms. are now
looking for investments for their
money.
The exports of farm products, in
spite of increased consumption at
home. have grown to 1916 100000. In
spite of the injurious statements print
ed about the packing houses the fig
ures for exports of packing house pro-
ducts exceed $2OO,O00,0O0 for the first
time. The balance of trade in favor
of the American farmer. that is, the
excess of expectation of American ag-
ricultural products over imports of
the same character, was for last year
$433, 100000, as against $4,000 for all
other classes of exports and imports.
