Contentment with our lot is the
secret of health and happiness. Were
we contented our lives would be a
state of enjoyment But we run
away from peace and true pleasure
by signing after the pomps and van
tiles of the world. Exalted positions,
great wealth. glourious honors yield
no solid enjoyment, so long as dis
content turks in our bosom. The
saints above found out the true secret
of life. It was by conformity to the
Divine will, which alone brings con-
tentment.

the way, that you do not go alone. In
your struggles to lead better life
in your efforts to overcome passion
and to lay aside habits, He is near
you. not as an Idle looker-on, but as
one to give the soul the tonic to
strengthen it. God knows the weak
ness of human nature.
He knows all. Others may mis-
judge you by attributing all kinds of
motives to your actions, but He can
not be deceived. When you have won
a wonderful victory over yourself,
when you have sonquered your evil
inclinatfons, do you know that it was
Christ who helped you? Do you know
that one-half of that victory was His =?

SHORT BU-T TO THE POINT.

We are getting pretty tired of those
endless kilograms from Madrid. If
the prime minister has won why does
he not stop fighting? We have had
only two kilograms from the Vatican,
and they might be reduced to one
and that one could be condensed into
the single sentence: IF the govern
ment of Spain wants to go to the devil,
then let the government of Spain go to
the devil Western Waterman.

SONG OF THE STORM.

There's the song of a storm on the
old hill trails,
And the lure of a vanishing day;
There's the sound of the waves that
are never still,
AS they roll on the open bay.
There's the white. still hush of the
waiting woods,
And the call of the deer at eve,
And the sough of the pines that for
ever tell
Why the ancient oceans grieve.
There's the camp-fire's CLEAN on the
dusky trees,
There's pipe and a bit of song,
While the stars above through the
branches smile,
And the big moon dreams along.
And here are the streets with their
hordes of men
That the CLEAN of the gold pursue;
Oh, give me the gold on the pines at
dusk
My hills, how I long for you!
Arthur w Peach.

THE EUCHARIsTIC CONGRESS.

Is it not wonderful coincidence
that doctors, scholars and philoso-
pliers from every land and cline
should assemble in such an age as
this at the shrine Of Our Lady of
Mount Royal to proclaim to all the
world the unchanged and unchange-
able dogmas of the Church, which
was old ere the Frank crossed the
Rhine, or the Anglo-SaXon ceased to
be a painted savage. In an age Of
boastful infidelity and blatant unbe-
lief the proceedings of this convention
in Montreal speaks louder than peals
of thunder to listening world, that
Catholicism is today more potent,
more inspiring and more wonderful
in its achievement than ever in its
history.-The Catholic Messenger.

Everybody
KnOUs

That It is his duty, while young, to
make provision for later life when
his energy and earning capacity may
be less Yet too few do so. And
why? Not so much because of de-
feet in character or bad habits or
lack of energy and ambition as be
cause of incorrect business methods
in beginning life.
One young man opens a bank &C
count. He adds to it from time to
time. The money itself helps. Soon
he has enough to make q profitable
investment or to buy an interest in
a business in which his ready CAPT.
tai and his character cause him to
be desired. Result-at forty years,
he is well to do if not rich, and
properly classified as leading citi-
zen.
Another young man, similar in
character and the equal in education
and address of the former, pOstpOnes
the beginning of his career. He puts
his money in his pocket. He frivolS
it away, but ever deludes himself
with the weak promise that next
week or next month he will begin
saving in earnest. Result-at forty
years he is welded to a payroll and
lVlng from one payday to the next.
He isn't necessarily a "hewer of
wood and bearer of water" for the
remainder of mis- days. but this is
his probable station.
We wish to secure the accounts
eve know they'll be small at fiTst
of all the young men of this COM
munity who desire at the age of
forty to be factors in the CONNER
cial and financial life of the city.
Furthermore we are willing to help
those who show they have the quail
ties that make for success.

INCOME PAID as DESIRED

in our experience, extending
over a quarter Of a century, we
have found that some investors
desire the income from their
money as frequently during the
year as they can obtain it.
Others prefer to receive the in
terest only every SIX or twelve
months. To accommodate all in
vestors, we pay the interest on ,
our Secured Certificates by at
tached coupons monthly, quar-
terly or semi-annually. They
earn 6 per cent per annum. are
tax free, and are secured by first
mortgages on Salt Lake Real
Estate and the guarantee of this
company.

NEEnEn ADVICE.

Every investor who relies on his
own judgment. is at disadvantage.
The investment field is an ever-chang-
ing one. They who undertake to steer
clear of any advice in the securities
market, will sooner or later lose. They
who are guided by the judgment and
experience of a banker or other invest
ment specialist, rarely lose. Hence
the really intelligent investor will
never venture far in the purchasing
of securities without corresponding
with or interviewing a reliable invest
ment adviser Even investors of long
experience recognize the value of
counsel and information in new fields
of investment.

MUCH CORN IN MISSISSIPPI
State Will Make Largest Crop This
Year in History-one Hundred
Bushels to Acre.

The Mississippi agent of the bureau
of statistics makes the following COM
ment in regard to the corn crop of
that state:
Mississippi will this year make the
largest corn crop in the history of the
state-or within my knowledge at
least The crop is made and largely
gathered and the yield will be large.
In many sections on small acreages
more than one hundred measured
bushels per acre have been gathered.
For the first time considerable corn
will be shipped from the county in
which it was made Recently parties
went before the railroad commission
in this state and asked for and re-
ceived rates on corn to elevators, etc.
Heretofore there was so little corn
made for shipping that the rates were
never asked for.

Chicago.-No theory yet advanced

regions and journey with such mighty

weeks later the old bird and the
chicks start south. They loiter along
slowly until they reach Labrador
where they make a stand for some
weeks feasting on crow berries and

GOOD METHODS IN FARMING
Gradually Farmers Are Being Taught
to Abandon oId-Fashioned Ideas
and Take Up Modern.

The farmers capital being the soil
or that portion of his land" that is
used for the production of crops, 1t is
most important to the producer that
he should understand thoroughly and
determinately what are the constitu-
ent parts composing this soil, SO that
he can in his farming know just how
and why such matters should be add
ed or taken from his particular SOIL
In the past, no attention has been
given to this, but the farmers con-
tinued from year to year to cultivate
the same soil In the same old way
without considering the probability of
the exhaustion of the fertility of the
soil that had been placed in it when
1t was in state of nature. 1t has
been hard work to arouse the pro-
ducers of farm products and induce
them to study new methods and adopt
such as have been proven the best by
men who. having segregated the
facts from the experience of practical
and thoughtful men, stand ready to
furnish the information that will re-
store in a way all the necessary quail
ties to the soil that will make it Just
as good as new"
While the efforts of the United
States department of agriculture to
arouse the farmers to a realization of
the great importance of following the
instructions that will produce the best
results has been nearly a thankless
job in the past, still here and there
some have grasped the idea and have
applied such principles as were neces-
sary TO their own condition with sue
cess Gradually through constant les
sons and constant lectures, there has
grown up a disposition among more
and more of the farmers to follow the
new teachings and to abandon the old
and futile methods that had been
handed down to them from the ia
thers-
Among the causes for this change
may be mentioned the organization of
the Farmers union. the Farmers con-
gress, the Cotton Growers association
and kindred associations for the bet
ter protection and education of their
class along better lines. These organ
izations have through their methods
educated their membership slowly it
may be true. but surely, until today
there is a general awakening along
the line, and the future is bright with
hope for the rejuvenation of all the
farmers in the south at least

FoaI Shows.

Enterprising owners OF stations
who have established foal shows
where the produce of their horses
meet in competition have been sur
prised at the interest taken in them.
In some localities foal shows. open
to the get of all stations. are held
as the result OF the boost given at
the start by some wide-awake stall
lion owner. Competition in such
cases is quite keen. and it is not un-
common to see a score of foals lined
up for inspection. One of the best
features is the fact that good wean-
lings thus shown find ready buyers.
In eastern Ohio the second-prize draft
colt in one show was sold for $3.50.
and the general average is SIS to
500 for well-bred draft weanlings in
that locality. 1t will pay stallion own
ers to consider the foal show as
means of demonstrating the value of
their horses and encouraging the pro-
duction of good colts as wen as find

INCREASE PRICE OF COTTON
Christian Monitor Says Upward Ten
dency of Price of Staple Is Nat
urai and Wholesome.

In regard to the higher price of cot
ton. the Christian Monitor. published
in Boston, prints the following:
After the complaints from spinners
and others who are interested in
cheapening the price OF cotton to their
own advantage. it is certainly cheering
and refreshing to read the following
from a paper published in Boston. the
Christian Science Monitor Here is
what 1t has to say relative to the in
creasing price of cotton:
The great southern staple has been
making a steady advance since the
middle 'eos. Every recession. from
whatever cause. has left the price per-
manently some points higher. About
the time the Atlantic Cotton States ex
position was being promoted person
would have been set down as a dream
er If he had predicted that within fif-
teen years the. prics-of the staple
would go beyond ten cents Today the
south is familiarizing itself gracefully
with a higher figure. and conservative
men are looking forward confidently to
a continuation OF the advance The
same causes that have raised the price
OF nearly every other raw product are
behind the steady Increase in the quo
tations OF cotton. The principal of
these. of course. is the steady increase
in consumption. Cotton is entering into
more uses than ever before 1t is in
more universal demand. On the other
hand. the south Is not producing cotton
anywhere up TO its capacity. There is
q decided disposition among southern
farmers of the more Intelligent class to
prevent the cheapening of the stapl e
by over-production. The movement for
the diversification OF southern crops
has exercised considerable influence.
too On the whole. the upward ten
dency of cotton is natural and whole
some. and one of the many things at
this time adding to the sum of the
south's prosperity"

perplexing puzzles of ornithology
Some OF the old authorities surmised
that these mysterious birds retreated
into the soft mud at the bottom of
ponds. lakes and streams. Later au-
thorities say they disappear upward.
The swift reappears as mysteriously
as he disappears.
Hawks and vultures collect In tho

ton has assembled they move on ST.

titude and we see them no more until
next spring. when they return one at
a time. without any parade or spec
tacular performance. Many kinds OF
birds skulk and hide for days before
leaving for the south and then they
leave at night.
Contrasted with this apparent war;
derlust OF birds is the homing instinct
OF some birds and animals, the carrier
pigeon and the horse for notable in
stances. Perhaps the homing instinct
is the overpowering sentiment in all
