A good deal of Importance is at
tached to the National Farm Con-
gress in session at Chicago last week,
charged with the consideration of the
leading agricultural issues of the
time. With their production valued
at $1,000, 000,0 900 year the farmers
of the United States can claim a
leading place in the industries of the
country and on the front line of ma
terial progress. American farmers
have little need to study foreign
farm methods. The best farm ma
chinery was invented at home and
the nation raises large surplus to
be sold to countries with more linn
tied resources or less successful in
tilling the soil. But our own forty
six states, all of which are represent.
ed at the congress, have much to
learn by comparing notes and this is
mainly the object that brings the
delegates together. When the pro-
ceedings of this national meeting are
printed they will be found Of gener-
al interest and will present many
facts and ideas calculated to pro
mote the farmers business.

as the Methven sisters with three
ladies in the company arrived here
Saturday from Kansas City where
they have just closed in one of the
larger vaudeville houses. The act is
a new one in this part of the country
and is sure to make hit. Adelaide
Knight & Co., is the name of the
other company and they present a
one act western sketch entitled ''The
Girl and the Sheriff." There will be
special scenery and light effects put
on the vaudeville stage. An excel
lent picture program has been arrang
ed the feature film being war
drama "The Stolen Wireless" and
this will be particularly interesting at
this time owing to the great amount
of advertising the wireless system of
sending messages is receiving. Three
comedy films are offered in "A Case
of Lumbago," Holding up the We'd
ding" and "Sweet Toothed Dogs"
There will positively be matinee
this afternoon at 3 o'clock as one OF
the acts has arrived already and
