Never have the banks of the
Northwest held so much money as
was reported at the close of bust
ness on Nov. 16, when the comp
troller Of the currency called for
the last statement of the year. In
almost every instance increased de-
posts over the statement of Sept.
[. were reported. And the money
is not all in for 1909 crops, show
ing that the pinched conditions of
1907 have been overcome. Another
encouraging feature is the increased
loans reported. This item is par
ticularl y notable because the banks
in the middle west and eastern
banking centers have been reduc-
ing their loans in response to local
conditions.

Mr.. Mann says unless some legis-

adopted, or a reciprocal treaty with
Canada be agreed to, Canada, smart
ing under the injustice of the Payne
tariff law, is likely to forbid the ex-
portation of pulp wood from Can

A Great Mans Telephone.

"His great instrument was the
phone" said biographer of the
late Edward H. Hartman in the
Wall Street Journal. "He always
had it beside him. The Hartman
switchboard was one of the best
equipped and the busiest in New
York. Whether in his office, his
library, his bedroom or his bath
room, the telephone was always
there, and when he went into the
Oregon wilderness the telephone

New York editor in commenting
on Hartman and his telephone.
Nonsense said Hartman, when
this was called to his attention
the telephone is slave to me-"
1t is altogether likely that much
of the power and influence of the
late Mr. Hartman was due to the
aid of his telephone. In fact, he
admitted as much. His telephone
was his ever-present messenger
always ready for service. With it
he reached all of his business asso-
ciates and every corner of his vast
railroad territory. A man who
puts the telephone in his home
places himself in the avenue of ap-
proach to millions Of other homes
shops, offices and farms.
Just as with the railroad king

perhaps is proving even more of a

probably just as important in the
mind of the farmer who wrote:

is in bringing nearer to home the
physician and the veterinary, in

The telephones on farms are
growing more popular and numer-

the Western Electric Co., manufac-
turer of the ''Bell" telephones, that
over 100000 of it's new type of
rural telephones have been sold iu
the past 10 months. There are now
close to two million telephones on
farms in this country.
When President Roosevelt's
country life commission went
among the farmers last year, hear
ing testimony on conditions of
farm life, it reported that the great
est encouragement to farming of the
better sort and more healthful life
in country districts was given by
just such agencies as good roads,
the extension of the rural mail
system and the farm telephone.
