his way still further into the west,
Taft arrived In Denver and last
night in the Denver auditorium,
where year ago Bryan was nomi-
mated as his opponent in the presi-
dental race, and faced crowd of
thousands that recalled some of the
scenes of convention week.
The President, switching from his
purpose to discuss the question OF
conservation of natural resources
last night took up the corporation
tax passed as a part of the Payne
tariff bill, ana defended it as against
the proposition to impose a direct
income tax, which he acknowledged
seemed most likeL to pass the sen
ate when the corporation tax was
devised as a compromise.
The President strongly urged that
all states should adopt a proposed
amendment to the constitution, now
ever, to make an income tax posi-
BILE in time OF need.
Taft was joined here by the secre
tary of the interior, Ballinger, who
will accompany him on part OF his
trip through The far northwest. II
is likely the President desired turth
er conference with Ballinger before
making final exposition OF the aims
and objects of this administration

PAINT DURABILITY.

The first thought in painting should,
of course, be durability-and dura-
bility means simply pure paint prop
erly applied. Pure paint is pure
white lead and linseeS oil with or
without tinting materially.
Some years ago the paint-buyer was
likely to get adulterated or counter
felt white lead if he was not familiar
with brands To-day he may buy
with perfect safety if he only makes
sure that the Dutch Boy Painter
trademark is on the packages OF
white lead that he buys. This trade
mark was adopted by National Lead
Company to distinguish the pure
white lead made by them from the
worthless adulterated and fake goods
1t is a guarantee as valuable to the
HORSEPOWER as the education of 6
paint expert could be.

London.-Scientifc men at Cam.
bridge who are devoting themselves
to AGRICULTURAL research are on the
eve of establishing proud claim
made year ago. They said that they
would increase the value of wheat
crops by $40 an acre.
But in the race for the perfect
grain-wheat, barley and oats-tney
are being pressed hard by other dis
coverers who are total disbelievers in
the Cambridge methods, and the race
for the perfect grain under the diff
ferent methods is becoming exciting
The chief competitors of Mr.. Biffen,
Mr.. Punnett and the Cambridge school
are M. Vilmorin of Paris, Mr.. Burbank,
who is called the California wizard,
and John Carton of Warrington.
John Carton and Mr. Burbank have
exchanged letters, and agree that the
making Of the perfect grain is more
or less a fuke. Mr.. Carton, for ex-
ample, produced an oat which m
/ creased the yield by ten to 20 per
cent, and grew large grain by using
the wild oat, which has the smallest
of all grain and was thought to be
useless.
Mr.. Biffen, on the other hand. works
wholly by system, and has two tri
umphs to his credit. He has produced
wheat absolutely proof against rust
which is the most prevalent of whea
diseases, and he has been able, by fol
lowing the law of Mendel, to fix thes'
new sorts in two or three years wher'
previously the work took eight or ten

creation has greatly excited men
science all over the world.
The present position in the rae
is this, that the Cambridge school ha
produced grains which resist diseas
and are very "strong" -that is, ar
good for milling. The French hybr
: dizers and Mr.. Carton have produce
grains remarkable for heavy yiel'
The achievement which is yet
come is the joining together of tn
disease resisters and the heavy yiel'
: ers. When that is done the farmer
l. fortune Is made, If wheat will sta

This hull, too, is smooth, and can

times come true was evidenced when
Moses Hangen, laborer employed

Marriage and Meanness.

Some years ago there lived in Atch-

good works and gentleness. She was
always helping the poor and was pa
tent and kind and universally adj
mired. She married a fairly good man
and abused him within three months
She had been good and patient for
years, but husband was too much
for her; she had never been cross to
any one until she was cross to her
husband. There is something about
marriage that stirs up hidden depths
of meanness on both sides.-Atchison

The Ever Changing Waist Line.

Consider the mental agility it takes

headlines in the morning papers the
waist line is positively at the knees.
There is absolutely no use in prognos-
ticating anything about it any longer.
That the waist line occurred at the
waist was an axiom accepted as I'M

ZEPPELIN'S AlRSHlP
NOT BADLY DAMAGED

Berlin, June Mechanics vile
are repairing Count Zepperlin's
wrecked airship, zepperlin III, near
Gottenen today, stated that the dam
age to the craft Is not so great as
was first believed. Although It will
take some time to make the neces-
sary repairs It is believed that the
ship can be sent to zepperlins shops
at Friederichafen by Thursday.
When the craft is in the shops
Zepperlin's entire force will be set to
work repairing the bow plates OF
aluminium which we're torn out by
contact with a tree yesterday when
the counts long flight was ended by
accident. II IS probable that II will
be several weeks before the airship
is in shape TO make another flight.
Count Zepperlin is not in the least
