This will leave us but 2O,OOO,O 600
bushels as a surplus for export, while
In the past we have exported upward
OF -12O, 900 bushels per annum
So n can see that we will need all
our wheat to feed u own people.
Within the next five years the wheat
of Eastern Washington will be shipped
eastward to feed the people Of East
ern and Central Western States.
And in considering these facts It
must be remembered that the number
of live stock slaughtered last year
was 100000 fewer than the year
previous When farmers of. Iowa,
Minnesota and Nebraska can get
sixty-five cents q bushel for corn at
the country station they will not en-
dure the risk of hog cholera and the
labor incident to hog raising, but will
sell all their grain"

Here" put in Led. in that strong tone of his let me catch you. I'll come alongside"
 She looked from one to the other. Even in the terror of the position she saw something of the situation and wished for an instant that she could escape making a choice before the crowd. But look ahead told her that that was impossible-now was her time
 The hill was nearer and nearer. The people were wondering why she did not leap. for they saw il was impossi- ble for the riders to stop the team Suddenly she satisfied them. With an abandon that showed how strong was her faith, she threw herself far from the wagon-toward Led Norton.
 The young cattleman was ready for the duty of the minute. He reached out his strong right arm and as she came to him threw 1t around her waist. With a quick motion he brought her to the saddle and then turned his horse back toward the cen ter of the crowd.
 She jumped into the arms of a north ender." exclaimed a dozen of her friends, flor shame" But Dorine seemed not to care. She smiled at them when she rode back with Led's arm around her, and Harry was glad that he went on to catch the team and was not there to see.
 That was smart trick of yours" said Nr. Norton to his son, a day or two after.
 Not so smart as that of yours and the rest in trying to frighten and break up the south enders parade" was the reply. 'It did good in two ways; 1t won me a wife and put the two towns on friendly basis"
 What do you mean, sir? A wife and friends"
 Miss Vandele promed me to marry me as We rode back from the runaway and the people were so thoroughly mixed by the fright that they will quarrel no more. A marriage between the two leading families will help straighten things, too, don't you think?"
 Mir. Norton did not say what he thought-perhaps he did not think anything fit for expression. As for his son he was more than satisfied. He had won a goddess, as he put 1t, and had healed a neighborhood quarrel, and that was glory enough for one Fourth of July.

Want of occupation will ruin thS most promising of young men. When a youth sits down in idleness, with the idea that the world owes him a living. it's high time that his body was committed to the dust from whence il came. AS for his soul. noth- ing will ever be known of it. A rec. ord of the young men who have been unfortunate enough 10 have fortune left them shows that eight in ten never amount to a single atom in the world, and seven out of the eight die bankrupts, financially. morally and otherwise. When a father brings ur his son in idleness, never teaching him the first principle of economy or the value of a dollar, he commits a terri ble blunder The father guilty of such a crime generally has to saw wood for a living in his old age. Nine out oi ten of the boys with fathers who bring them up In idle luxury, ere they reach the meridian of life are total wrecks Money bags may. like bladders. keeI you above the waters of distress for time. but puncture them, let their con. tents escape. and you sink. Many plans have been suggested for the rem edy fo the evil of unearned fortunes But socialism. inheritance taxes, or government regulation of any descrip tion will avail but little until fathers over proyident, become wiser in their generation and see to 1t that their heirs are worthy of receiving the for tunes for which-they themselves have toiled.

Although in many States deaf mute. and the blind receive special training to enable them to earn a livelihood others of the handicapped, such as cripples, are not so provided for, and must frequently beg or go to the work. house or starye. But hundred crtp pies were cared for last year by the Employment Bureau for the Handi capped, a branch of the New York Charity Organization Society which although not organized until April, re ceiyed about thirteen hundred applica tions for employment, and found places for more than half the appli cants. Some corporations and business houses refuse 10 employ the physically defective. on the ground that they are peculiarly liable to accident and In. jury; and careful canvass Is neces. sary to find positions which they can fill. But there are such places. There is no reason why 6 one-armed man should not be faithful yatchman. or why a legless man should not be val uable at a factory bench, or why a lame woman should not earn her board and little more by doing light house work. Although as a rule they receive small wages, 1t Is surely better for them and for the community that they should be usefully employed and self supporting. In Chicago, as well as In New York. and It may be In other cities, the special problem which these unfortunates present has been taken up for solution. and already with ex- cellent results. But philanthropists now raise the point. and with good reason. that there is no community. large or small in which a helpful mis- sion to the handicapped cannot be car ried forward. 4 church guild could un. dertake 1t; charitable association which Is organized on reasonably broad lines might branch In this direc- tion; even an individual could accom- plish much. The need is so imperative that, once It Is clearly stated, money and service will be forthcoming. and many an employer will be glad to find places for the handicapped men, who ask nothing but honest work.

There are great numbers of others the enforce ment of which, or attempts to enforce which, Is productive of bribery. per jury, subornation Of perjury, animosi- ty, and hate among citizens, useless expenditure and many other public evils All these are fruits of the com mon notion, to correct which but little effort is anywhere made. that a legis- lative enactment is necessarily a law, and will certainly bring about or help bring about the goo -nded by it:

Celebrate? Of course we can't cele- orate in this town. We can't do noth- ng until we get together" Postmas- CT Haston threw away his cigar im- patiently and turned to the group of villagers.
 Maybe that's so. but it ought not Q be. Just because the cattlemen live n the north end and the land owners n the south they ought not to quar- -el,' replied Harry Morse. son of Banker Morse, and just home from col .ege.
 We'll get up our own then" sug- gested somebody. and let's meet to- morrow night. Fourth of July will be lere in a week"
 Harry on his wheel met Led Norton, he son of the owner of Hat Six ranch, on horseback a day later and the two young men rode side by side across he level plain for a time. Harry told his companion of the arrangement.
 That's all right" was the reply. The north end Is goin' to perform, 100. These old fogies may fight if they want to, but we won't be so foolish. We can't help it, of course, but let's go in for some fun out of it anyhow"

 That homely Miss Lyons. of course. She always forces herself to the front"
 "Wrong-Miss Dorine yandele.'
 Why, her father is worth half a million"
 Well, she will do anything for me- with a satisfied air.
 "Oh. ho, that's 1t, is it?" and the cat lie king-to-be rode away. In his heart was a little bitterness, for Dorine was 70 him something better than the rest south, and he did not like at all the one of his companions expression.
 So North Mayyille prepared for it's parade and speeches, and South May
 
 often and exchanged notes as to the progress of the work. It was to be a very bitter rivalry.
 For days the two sections of the town were excited. The tales of the ioings of "the other side" were related with great exaggeration. Dorine heard them and wondered if her party was 10 be so very much outshone.
 They tell me that they are getting up a caricature of me-" she said to Harry.
 They would not dare" was the eager response. "ff they did I would punish the author myself"
 Who is in charge of the other .ideT
 Ted Norton, of course"
 Dorine's color heightened. but Harry did not notice it. He was at last re. warded by securing her promise that she would act the principal part in he parade. He went away wondering how he could arrange 1t so that he might be near her on the glorious occasion.
 On the eve of the important day there was a gathering in the back room of the Cattlemen's Club. Around he table sat six of the largest owners of stock on the range. They talked sf the morrow.
