1h.. new school cf economists has been arguing that prosperity consists in scarcity and high prices. This fal- lacy, however is being rapidly eX- p1oded Managers Of soT2a Of our great trusts fell into tue error of adopting these new doctrines much to their present disccmfiturf and ap parently our farmers have yet to learn that the lessen of true pros pcrity lies iu abundance and not in scarcity. The country as whole would be indefinitely better off with big crops at moderate prices than limited crops at famine prices, such as are being paid today for the es- sentials of life Therefore, one of the first necessities of the day is big crops. American farmers should do their share in promoting the coun- try's welfare by providing q liberal increase In acreage and securing larger yield as far as possible by in- proved methods of cultivation. Pos sib1y they would not obtain so large a profit per bushel as in the last har- vest, but they. and the country as q whole, would prosper more under biz crops and reasonable prices during 1909.

ARKANSAS PEACHES
 WIN AT HOT SPRINGS
Fruit at First Spurned by JobberS After Trial is Preferred to Caliior nia Product.

Hct Springs. March S.-Arkansas peaches are to displace the California friul among the big hotels here. For years it has been thought that the epicurian palates of the millionaire guests would be satisfied with nOth ing but the western product but now this has all changed and tils. luscious fruit Of northwestern Arkansas has, after it's first trial, shown its superb ority over all rivals. It is pronounced sweeter and more "fruity" than that of California, the latte, having more insipil taste than tte Arkansas pro- duct
 Despite the demonstrated superior ity of the Bear State fruit ii was with great difficulty that it was introduced here. It's introduction is due chiefly to the efforts of Bert Johnson, super intendent of the Arkansas Orchard Planters Association. Upon his first trip here he was given a cold recep- ton by the iobbers, but he sold a car load of the canned fruit to retailers, and upon his second trip job6ers and hotel mon were eager to purchase Arkansas peaches.

SAFE BOTH WAYS.
Tn. Way Raj.h Birbar Saved His
Head BY Ready Wit.


Rajah Birbar, q boon companion OF
the Emperor Akbar, the great con.
temporary of Queen Elizabeth, was a
notable wit The story goes that the
emperor once sent Birbar with a mes
sage to the king Of Persia.
The latter, for some reason or other,
bore q grudge toward the rajah and In
order to see him lose the emperor's
favor thought Of device.
He asked Birbar: (Which Of us two
is greater in power and majesty-I or
Akbar? But, mind you, II your an
swer is in any way unfavorable TO me
1 will order your head to be struck
off,"
"Your majesty" replied Birbar with
out loss of time, "is like the full moon,
while the emperor, my master, resem-
bles the crescent"
The king was highly pleased with
his reply and let him 60.
This news was. however, carried to
Akbar, who was wild with rage when
he heard 1t. When Birbar returned to
his masters court he was asked to ex-
plain himself on pain Of death.
"My comparison" said Birbar,
meant only this much and nothing
more-that the decline Of the Persian
kings power had commenced, just as
the full moon. after 1t is full, goes on
waning, while your majesty is destined
to rise on and one till, like the crescent
becoming the full moon in time, it will
shine forth with magnificent splendor
Of glory"
The emperor, who was great patron
of wit and wisdom, heaped the rajah
with rewards.
