When Skies Arc Blue.

It's easy enough to be cheerful
When favors are coming your way.
When close to success you eagerly press
And all Of your ventures spell a
When friends are around you in plenty
And every one gives you q show,
But can you be gay and in rapture sing
."Hey!'
When the fiatiron drops IN your toe?
To smile is not really a hardship
When life runs as smooth as a song.
When friends lend a hand and warmly
expand
To pleasantly push you along.
When strangers to you are attracted
And help you promotion to gain.
But, say. can you grin through thick n
through thin
II the sewer backs up through your
drainf
It's really a snap to be Joyous.
To spread out your chest and expand,
When money is coming in plenty
And favors fall into your hand,
When trouble Is not within calling. ,

But. say. can yonr girth Grow wider with
mirth
When Bill. the assessor, comes round?
Who couldn't feel gay and light hearted.
Sweet tempered and an to the good

Whose children were marvels and models,
Whose word ia his family was Law.
But could he be sweet from his head to
his feet

SECRETARY WILSON CHEERFUL
Head Of Agricultural Department on
Business and Political Condi-
tion1 in tho West.

James Wilson. secretary of agricul-
ture, who has just returned to Wash
ington from visit OF two months in
the West, brings Il cheering prosperity
bulletin. He declares that the West
doesn't know much about the alleged
business troubles. It's farmers have
magnificent crops growing. and are SELL
ing the old crops and are preparing
TO sell the new ones for high prices
Weather and crop conditions this sea-
son have been excellent. and the new
crops, the secretary believes, will have
most buoyant effect on financial and
commercial conditions all over the
country. He confidently looks for a
continuation of the improvement in
business which has been apparent every
where for the last few months, and
for it's forward movement at an ac-
tolerated speed
Generally speaking said the secre-
tary, 1.-THE information of our depart
ment shows that in recent years there
has been considerable increase in the
DroductiveneSs of the soil We have
investigated this carefully, and there is
no doubt that the acre yield of crops is
showing most significant increase.
We attribute it to better farming meth
obs, to assimilation of the scientific in
formation about crop rotation, caring
for the soil, etc. which the department
and the agricultural colleges have
placed at the command of the farmers.
and to a general effort at intelligent
preservation of the elements which en-
able the soil to do its best work.
Speaking of political conditions, Sec
rotary Wilson said that the drift in the
West is all for Taft, and he expressed
strong conviction, based on his in
| quirieS in Il number of states that Mr..
Taft will carry all the states that
President Roosevelt carried four wears
ago, so far as the West is concerned.
The feeling that Republican rule will
bring back general prosperity and as
sure it's continuance is a powerful in
fluence with the voters. Later in the
| campaign the secretary will go on a
speaking tour for the Republican ticket,
especially in New England.

A TRIBUTE TO TAFT.
New York's Governor Tells Why He
Supports Taft's Candidacy.


Speech)
NO one more than | desires to see
administration pursed of every selfish
faint, to have fair and impartial laws
faithfully executed. to get rid of every
yestige of special privilege at the ex-
pense of public interest, to liberate
trade from unjust entertainments, to
purify our electoral methods and to
maintain honest representative govern
ment. And it is because of his loyalty
to these ideals, because of his broad
sympathies, and his rare equipment in
character, ability and experience, be-
cause tested in the difficult fields of
judicial and administrative work, he
has proved his quality by eminent serv-
ice, because of his varied learning, his
acquaintance with affairs, his respect
for constitutional government and his
capacity intelligently and justly to plan
and direct necessary reforms that
most earnestly support the candidacy of
William Howard Taft

Question of Injunctions.

You ask me what | think of pro-
vision that no restraining order or in
junction shall issue except after notice
to the defendant and a hearing had.
This was the rule under the Federal
statutes for many years, but was subse-
quently abolished. In the class of cases
to which you refer l do not see any
objection to the re-enactment of that
Federal statute. Indeed, have taken
occasion to say in public speeches that
the power to issue injunction ex parte
has given rise to certain abuses and
injustice to the laborers in peaceable
strike.-Hon. VIM. III. Taft, in CORE

He made the first favorable report to

Let US wake 10 to our opportunities.
let US add good business thought and
Judgment to our operations for. the
reward is as surely ours as the sun
shines and the rains come.
Fifteen hundred dollars per wear
profit. Cut this.in the middle. and
we have, in round numbers, a net
profit of $3.50. 90 each wear. Four
years will pay for all improvements
and stock needed, and pay the in
terest on money borrowed to start
with. Then tor a pull of twenty
years. one will have SIP, $4,000 to the
good, over and above what the man
will have who farms on the ''grain
to sell" plan. A pretty good life in
surance, boys. pretty little sum to
have in the bank when one retires.
Think it over boys: figure it out;
and get on the right track.
We must admit that in the newer
and drier sections of our state. this
plan would not be feasible. and the
grazing. small grain raising style
must be the rule for several years.
But for the easteran and older
settled portions of oar states. we are
ready for intensive diversified farm
ing.
