series of sixteen lectures on Economic

Powell, President of the Agricultural Ex-
perts Association. spoke on Present Ed1-
cational Needs in Agriculture" He de-
voted his time particularly TO the education
al requirements of farming as 8 business
and as a profession.
'The recent census has shown u.s. assert
ed the lecturer. "a marked Increase in
population of our cities. while the ratio Of
increase in the country has fallen off stu
pendously This leads us to the conclusion
that the consumer has grown out of all
proportion to the producer. To what more
reason, then, need we attribute this amaz-
ing problem of the high cost of living?
Why have eggs risen to the exorbitant price
of 60 cents per dozen and threaten TO reach
the dollar mark? Why have apples to-
day become almost a luxury In our modern
household?
You may discard the tariff as ele-
ment you may reason forever on your fine
economic theories and your philosophy. but
In the end you get back TO this simple So
mtion-the law of supply and demand. in
creased consumption and diminishing FRO

| he really had, himself, no deep-Seated
wish to overthrow either-least of all
the last. He simply had not thought it
out. Unlike Rousseau, he did not in
the least realize whittier his wild talk
tended. When a bereaved husband sent
him a copy Of a written prayer for Lord
Byron, found among his wife's papers,
instead Of being enraged at the intrusion
and the offence to his supposed creed,
Byron wrote that he had read the prayer
for himself with all the pleasure that
can arise from SO melancholy topic;
that in the course Of reading the story
Of mankind he never met with anything
so unostentatiously beautiful: and that
he would not exchange the prayer of
the deceased in his behalf for the united
glory of Homer, Caesar and Napoleon,
could such be accumulated upon a liv-
ing head" He closed his singularly
tender letter Of acknowledgment to his
bereayed clerical correspondent with an
appeal to be thought capable Of knowing
and approving the better course, how
ever much the tendency to follow the
worse one might have been applied TO
his conduct.
| Byron's fame would be better founded
! If It did not rest on so many works.
Here, too he approved the better course.

! publisher he deliberately laid down the
proposition that a good long poem was
! impossible-he, the author of one poem
! in sixteen cantos, of three poems of
high Importance in one year. of two in
| another, and of six in the last year of his
really valuable literary activity. Muir
ray had written that half of the third
and fourth cantos of certain work was

Byron's answer, for II II were ii would
