LAS we are now just starting, we
must make a big noise about our work
and call the attention of the public tn
us. We can not go about this quietly
for the attention of the public must
be called to the work we propose to
do. We are now on the road to sue
cess, and the conservation movement
bids fair to be one of the greatest ever
started in this country
During the course of his talk, Mr..
Douglas gave interesting illustrations
on the conservation of thought, conser-
walton of property. conservation of
game and many other things and in
each case some different phase of the
movement was emphasized.
In closing he quoted poem which
he learned while at the University of
Washington a short time ago, being as
follows:
The forest rangers motto stands,
Create, conserve. restore,
Protect homebuilders and their land,
Bringing content on every hand,
Now and forevermore.
Seed time and harvest he computes,
And from her bounteous store,
Summons Dame Natures attributes,
To make two saplings shoot their
shoots,
Where one shot heretofore.
He dams the streams that overflow,
And tears the valley floor,
Ruiinng the farmers grain and spuds
so that two cows may chew their
cuds,
Where one "cud" heretofore.
And as the fruit of his master hand,
And knowledge Of forest lore,
Bearing the stockman's glaring brand

PROGRESS of the Cotton Crop.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 12.-Reports
from the cotton fields in this section
of the belt are favorable. though rains
have been more plentiful than needed
for the crop to be pitched in ideal
shape. Such complaints, however,
have not been serious enough to cause
any concern. and the prospect may
be said to be excellent so far.
1t is probable there Will be some
acreage increase in the Memphis dis
trict, although many of the best post
ed PEOPLE say not, because of the in
creased acreage devoted to grains and
other crops. The continued high price
of grain will do more to spread diver
sified farming than anything else that
has been devised, and it looks like the
present year will see much advance in
that particular.

EFFECT OF REDUCED
PRICES ON STEEL
In Steel Finance, the Current Quarter
Will Be the Real Test of the
Lowering of Selling
Prices.

PITTSBURG, May I'm Steel Cor
poration finance, the current quar-
ter will be the real test of the eff
feet of reduced prices. The open
market was not declared until the
quarter was half over, and orders de-
liVered prior thereto, and probably
some thereafter, were AT the former
prices. Estimates made ten days ago
of $17,500,000 for the second quarter
are now, in view of the first quarter S
showing, being revised. The actual
output this quarter bids fair to be the
largest since the panic, and the man
ner in which new orders are coming
in is said to be very gratifying. The
advance of 81 per ton in three com
modities is referred to as an old Car
negie Vancouver, and it is even hint
ed that the former prices on bars and
shapes can be obtained if the business
offering is attractive. Banks are re-
porting fair increase in pay rolls,
which is an excellent sign, and ex-
changes passing through the Pittsburg
clearing houses are ahead of last
year, though far below 1907. Small
Grating a little better, and wholesale
and retail trade is moderately larger.
Some of the old-line manufacturers
declare that jugglery and manipuia-
ton, which they charge to Wall
street methods may help the trade
temporarily, but will serve to keep
it more unsettled in the long run. But
they have evidently forgotten the
methods of the days before the era OF

Just what have always come TO The

one has only to turn to the page ad of
the Empire Life Insurance company In

The procuring of this ad was the di-

Advertiser laid down in the issue of
the day before. II simply told an ever
lasting fact, part of which is that "if
you want to do business. you will have
to let people know IT." 1t was first
the wisdom of John Wanamaker which
give birth to the maxim and since his
utterance 1t has been ringing through
the years of the present commercial
age.
Net the least important phase of ad-
vertising Is the Information which the
columns contain. The best rounded

wife and the best shoppers always rely
on what merchant or a manufacturer
has to say about his article of sale or
production. 1t always gives pause to a
person or corporation to put claim
on paper-and hence the value of an
ad. 1t is more than talk--it is writ
ten bulletin fresh from the store or
factory.
AS for The Advertiser It will con-
tinue to advertise in its own columns
for more advertising. 1t has that de-
gree of faith in the results that are
