President Asks Larger Army.

President Roosevelt, in his final
annual message to congress, propably
Will recommend an increase in the
numerical strength of the army to at
least 100, 900 men At present the
army is or a footing Of 80, 600 men,
the number provided for in time of
peace To the general staff it has
become evident, in the last two years,
that 60, 900 men are too few properly
to garrison the posts at which 1t is
necessary to maintain au armed force.
These posts include the garrisons in
the insular possessions of America.
The law provides that the army
may be increased to 100, 900 men in
time of need. This provision in the
opinion of military experts is likely
to prove a serious handicap to the
army If absolute necessity should
arise for a larger force 1t is expected
that the president will Recommend
in his message an increase of the
army by the addition of at least 10
egiments of infantry. FIVE regiments

APPLE GROWERS WILL
SHOW MUCH FINE FRUIT
National Apple Show Will Do
Vast Amount of Good to
the Industry.

The National apple show to be held
at Spokane. Washington from Decem'
Der 7th to 18th, 1908, will be an i'm
portsnt affair to those engaged in
apple culture. $25. 900 will be given
in prizes, $500 of which goes to the
owner of the best car Of apples A
letter from Z L. Stewart OF Prosser,
Washington, one Of the best known
applegro wers of the northwest says
81 will certainly enter the contest
with carload of apples. 1t seems to
me that this is grand opportunity
for the different apple districts of the
North west to show their faith in the
claims of growing superior apples.
II think the matter should be brought
to the attention of the commercial
clubs of the different districts, with a
view Of taking the matter up and get
ting the best equipped grower in each
district to enter tue competition.
at IL certainly the best opportunity
the West has ever had of showing to
the East that we are really growing
choice apples on commercial scale,
and at the same time, convince trem
that we lead the world in our GRADE
and PACK.
~ would prefer to be in competi-
tion with % competitors rather than
with only two or three, aud if it could
be known early enough how many
cars would be entered. it could be ar
ranged to have an auction sale of the
exhibitions Of this class, on the last
day of the show, and the buyer would
lard his purchase IN the eastern mar
ket in time for the holiday trade. l
believe this could be worked up to be
the most important feature of the
chow. and as the apples would all be
the Cream of the Northwest, l
think they would sell at prices never
before heard of in any country.
"The parties making exhibits in
this class would be running no risk
whatever, for it they put up meritor-
ious fruit In good shape. it is Ger.
tain to sell at a price to more than
repay the extra expense of making
exhibit, without taking into consider.
alton the prize money at all.
The competition cannot fail to do
a vast amount OF good to the whole
country, for it should bring out the
very best material. and the very best
ideas and workmanship in grade and
pack, and in this way, show thousands
of visitors the very best methods
known.

A Talk on Advertising from
THE STAR

Xerxes once led a million soldiers out of Persia
in an effort to capture Greece, but his invasion
failed utterly because a Spartan general had en-
Itrenched a hundred men in a narrow mountain pass
which controlled the road into Lacedaemon. The
man uho was first on the ground had the advantage.
Advertising is full of opportunities for men who
are first on the ground.
There are hundreds of advertising passes wait
ing for some one to occupy them. The first man
who realizes that his line will be helped by publicity
has a tremendous opportunay. He can gain an adj
vantage over his competitors that they can never
possess. Those who follow him must spend more
money to equal his returns. They must not only
inUest as much to get as much, but they must as we'll
spend an extra sum to counterfeit the influence that
he has alreudy established in the community.
Whatever men sell, whether it is actual mer-
chandise or brain vibrations, can be more easily sold
with the aid of advertising. Not one-half of the
businesses which should be exploited are appearing
in the newspapers. Trade grows as reputation grouOs
and ADVERTISING spreads reputation.
If YOU are engaged in a line which is waiting for
a newspaper pioneer, realize what a wonderful
chance you have of being the first of your kind to
appeal directly to the public. You stand a better
chance of leadership than those who have handi-
capped their strength by permitting you to get on the
around before they could outstrip you. You gain a
prestige that those who foUoO you must spend more
money to counterfeit.
If your particular business is similar to some
other trade or business which has already been in
troduced to the reading public, it's up to you to
start in right no0 and join your competitors in
for the attention of the community.
The longer you delay the more you decrease your.
chances of SURVIVING. Every man who ~outstrips you
is another opponent who must be met and grappled|
with for the right Of aoy.

He spoke for almost an hour to al
audience in the Taylor Opera House in

there to hear him. In his speech he
said that in almost every country there
were parties-one aristocratic and the
other that of the people. In this coun-

"Who would propose now that {
