If some person would take the initi- alive and apply to the Department Of Agriculture for cuttings of basket willow, it is safe to say that the swampy ground of this section could be made to produce large quantities of this material. The climate and na. ture of the soil are perfect for the production of basket willow, and tie department Of agriculture encourages it's growing by furnishing cuttings and instruction free to any one who may apply. New York leads .he un- ion in the production of willow for manufacture of baskets and wicker ware, and many of her farmers are making good profits from its culture. Ninety-nine per cent. of the best grades of basket willow used in the United States is imported. The gov. ernmenS has recently been experi- menting with this willow, and select cuttings have been distributed among the farmers, with directions for plant. ing and preparing for the market. Particular attention is given to select ing the varieties and strains best suit. ed to the soil where the planting will be made. The demand for basket vii. low is so great and the production SC quick and easy that hardly any other farm crop can compete with it. Here ! Is somebody's opportunity to make a fortune. .-WrangelI Sentinel,

The Cheapest
Binding Irvine

It takes two and three-quarter feet
4 OF Irvine to bind an average bundle of
wheat. Suppose you have fifty acres to
cut and bind. How much do you need ?
From our experience we would say that
there would be about $4,000 bundles in
all, and it would take $3.50 feet Of
Irvine to bind it. How many pounds
of Irvine will it take to give 63.250 feet?
It depends on the Irvine. If it runs an
average OF sos feet to the pound it will
require about 125 lbs; if it runs $50
feet it will require 140 lbs; and II it
runs only 400 feet it will require 1853
lbs
II the same price per pound was
asked for all the different kinds Of
Irvine. you would see at once that 1t
is far cheaper to buy 125 lbs. to get the
same number Of feet, than It is to buy
140 lbs. or 1853 lbs, but the smart dealer,
In order to make you think his Twine
IS cheapest, will ask you a half cent per
pound less for the short kind.
In other words. Irvine is cheap or
dear, depending on its length per
pound. What you are interested in, is
not the price per pound, but price per
foot.

runs an average of sos feet per pound

COUNIRY'S SALVATION
 LIES IN DEMOCRACY
So MT. Bryan Declared in Speech Celebrating His Birthday

Chicago. March 19.-Declaring the present day evil to be the domination of politics by favor-seeking corpora tions and asserting that the democratic party is best qualified to undertake the task of correcting this, William J. Bryan tonight celebrated his forty eighth birthday by delivering a speech on National Issues before a big mass meeting in the Seventh regiment ar mory. Bryan took for his subject: Why Democracy?"
 After discussing the records Of Roosevelt, Hughes and Taft, in regard to corporation legislation he answered the question by saying: Because the democratic party is the only party sufficiently large to give hope of sue cess and is sufficiently democratic to give hope of relief after the victory has been won.
 Bryan's speech was the only one de- livered at the meeting Carter H. Har- ricon, former mayor of Chicago and head of the Bryan league under the auspices of which the gathering was held. introduced the speaker after de- claring that the meeting had been or ganized to give Bryan full OppOrtu nifty to express his views on the issues which may be expected to come up in the national campaign.

PROPOSED ABOLITION
 OF PENSION AGENCIES
The Foremost Subject In Discussion by the
 House of the Pension Bill
The Debate Wandered Off In.the Hands of Demo- cratic Members to Criticisms of the President On Various Grounds.

Washington, March 19 - Following speeches by Messrs. Bowers of Miss issippi and Keller. of Ohio in support of a proposition to abolish the seven teen pension agencies throughout the country, and to have instead, a general agency to be located in Washington. the house today considered the pen sion appropriation bill for amendment.
 An amendment by MT. Taylor of Ohio. to restore the pension agencies which the bill drops in the interest of consolidation of pension disbursements in Washington aroused considerable discussion.
 On points of order by Mir. Dalzell. there were stricken from the bill the provisions authorizing the commits sioner of pensions to group pensioners for payment at certain dates. authoriz- ing the chief clerk of the pension agencies to act in the absence of agents. and authorizing agents to des- ignate clerks to sign the agents names to pension checks
 The bill then passed. It carries an appropriation of $l5O, O,S69,OOO
 In the course of the debate. MT. Fitzgerald of New York. accused the president of using federal patronage to further the interests of Secretary Taft for the presidency. Early in the day the president was attacked by MT.
