financial hopes ana ASPIRATIONS OF those who had
survived the various ills that followed in the wake
of industrial over-expansion But since the panic
clouds have cleared away there has come another
and even more wonderful appreciation in values,
the most remarkable advance in the prices of all
commodities and securities that this country has
ever known. Probably more millonaires have been
made in the last IL months by the steadily rising
tide of tremendous prosperity than history ever
has recorded in similar period of time. The
number of those who have grown rich quickly is
greater probably than it was in the time OF mer-
ger and consolidation nearly decade ago. Be-
fore the panic of 1907 there were, perhaps, 5000
mionaires in New York. Now there are any
where between 5000 and 10000
The advances in the value of securities in the
last two years have been almost incredible. There
probably are more than 100000 persons who are

cific is next to Pennsylvania in the length of its
stockholders list. 1t is not only one of the most
popular investment securities, but also that is
specialized in most largely. Union Pacific COM
mon was 100 in 1907; this year it has been above

York Central Southern Pacific, Baltimore & Ohio,

the long list of railways and indusrials have ad-
vanced from SO to 100 more per cent. in value

ing the harvest. During the panic enormous
blocks of gilt-edge shares were thrown on the
markets when great spectators like Heinze and
Morse, and some others who were not so spectac-
uar daring, had to sacrifice anything and
erything for ready money. Their holdings now
scattered throughout the country and have been
tucked away in tens Of thousands of safes and
strong boxes.

In most cases the ground is pre-
pared for willows exactly as for corn
or wheat and the work is generally
done in the fall. The sprouts are
planted at varying distances in the
rows and the rows are made 21a to
three feet apart. With the rows
planted this distance apart it is best
to use a horse cultivator.

far and wide. But there is
another harvest that has
been growing and ripening all unno-
ticed by government statisticians and
by everybody else, and that Is the
bumper crop of new millionaires and
multi-millionaires. Never before were
there so many in New York as there
are to-day. Millionaires were made In
a night by the great wave of consoli-
dalton and the merging of hundreds
of industrial enterprises that was the
feature of the opening years of the
twentieth century, just after the close
of the Spanish-American war. There
were steel kings, steamship kings.
pump kings, kings Of car springs and
of air brakes and Of all sorts OF
things. They blossomed forth between
the sunset of one day and the dawn
of the next. The select circle of plu-
tocracy widened so swiftly that 1t
broke all barriers and created a new
aristocracy of wealth in America.
New York was invaded by horde of
westerners whose manners in some
cases shocked even the imperturbable
servitors at the expensive hotels
where they monopolized the royal
suites. Pittsburg, from being simply
a great mill town, a city of grimy
workmen, jumped into worldwide
prominence because 1t was discovered
suddenly that 1t had more millionaires
to the square inch than any other
spot on earth. In New York all sorts
of people achieved fortunes. paper or
actual, almost before they were
aware; Jockeys, walters, bartenders
and other humble folk glanced with
amaze at the balances with their
brokers and began making plans for
yachts and country houses. The his
tory of this period was one of the
wonders of America.

Marrow and Distant Planting.

This is not entirely a new industry,
but it has never received an impetus
until the government took hold of the
matter recently.
The demand for this product is
growing. There are number of
varieties of willows, but those adapted
to basket making thrive best where
they are not shaded. They do not
necessarily require marshy lands, but
because they need good, rich soil
and cannot tolerate shade, they are
generally found where other trees do
not exist.
Rods grown on moist, rich, we'll
drained bottom land are more flexible,
tougher and less branchy than those
grown on undrained marshy land.
These trees will thrive on land that
will produce a very poor quality Of
grass.
The closer planting of basket will

The usual method Of water-forcing
is to set the bulb in water just deep
enough to keep the base Of the bulb
immersed and keep in the dark until

BULBS ARE EASILY GROWN
Timely Suggestions Regarding the
Forcing Of Bulbs Either In
Water or Soil.

(EvA RYMAN-GAILORD.)
Bulbs should be ported in fairly rich
soil that has been pulverized until
free from Jumps; be given good wa
tering; have the soil we'll firmed
around them, but not packed hard un.
der them, and be kept in a cool, dark
place until root growth is well estab-
lished. Nothing is gained by bringing
bulbs to the light too soon, and often
the beauty of their flowers is sacri-
feed by so doing.

tiers until the roots show at the open

shares in scores of railway and In
