moreover that they arise from pro-
found changes going on in the whole
structure and body Of society. since
the firm establishment Of the gold
standard, credit has found new and
broader and firmer basis. During the
last ten years we have had an era Of
unexampled prosperity. It may be
doubted whether any country ever
before had the like. Prosperity slim
ulates speculation. Extraordinary
advances in values have been Wit
messed. extravaganza in all direc-
lions is great. Consumption OF nee
essaries in our country has gained
enormously on production. Farmers
are getting astonishing prices for
nearly all varieties OF their products.
Wheat, wool, hops, dairy products.
meats and hides go at soaring prices.
Hogs sell, In all parts OF the country,
at 10 cents per pound. Time was
when good prices were thought to
signify good conditions; and there
was awful lamentation some years
ago when prices were low. But the
political orator is equal to the task
Of complaining about high prices at
one time and low prices at another.
Just now he is laying his grievance
about high prices to the charge Of
Joe Cannon"
This kind of humbug is likely to
win in the elections OF the present
year. The house of representatives,
very probably, will fall Into the
hands of the opposite party. Disap-
pearance Of Cannon from the speak
er's chair will be "a matter OF no
Importance. He is growing old, and
most likely win be elected to con-
gress but once more. 1t would be
some satisfaction to the old man,
doubtless, to witness, with the advent
of his political opponents to the seats
of power, tumble in prices that
would make them all look wild
again. Such occurrences are not un-
known; for when prices fall sharply
some other things usually fall with
them whole legions OF politicians,
for example. After all. when the
people really come to think of 1t and
to feel the consequences. they do not
like low prices. They prefer high
prices, industrial activity and gener-
al prosperity. But every few years
they are apt to forget. Then the les
son must come Portland Ore
gonian.

Old world dOmestlcs make the best
possible servants because they work
like machines, never forgetting an or
der and doing exactly as they are told,
without presuming to think for them
selves. But once in awhile this literal
adherence to duty produces some awk-
ward results. An American woman
living in India. with native servants,
once told her butler to see that there
was always a napkin at the bottom OF
the fruit dish, cake basket, etc, when
these were brought to the table. The
napkin was thereafter always seen in
its place. But one day a tureen OF
vegetable soup was served. and the
hostess began to WELD the long, old
fashioned silver ladle about in It.
Something very like a fringed rag
made its appearance in the first plate
full. The butler was summoned to re-
move the dish. 1T cannot be that the
mem sahib found no napkin at the
bottom" he hazarded, much distressed
because OF this unexplained disap-

THE IMPORTANCE OF
FOREST TREE PLANTING
Germans Appeal to United States for
Seeds.

ueEAHaus Apprtl 10 OMlNeu STATES Tor
Seeds.
The enterprise Of German foresters
and the Importance Of tree planting
for forest purposes are strikingly
shown by two items of news which
comes. the one from Montana, the
other from Ontario. 1t is reported
that a demand has developed for
Montana larch seeds to be used by
German nurserymen; while white
pine seedlings are to be imported
from Germany by the town of Guelph,
Ont, for planting 16S-acre tract of
land belonging to the municipality.
The Germans recognize that the
introduction into their forests of val
liable trees native to other countries
may be decidedly to their advantage.
Although as a rule the forest trees
best adapted to each region are those
which naturally grow in it, there
are many exceptions. Norway spruce
and Austrian and Scotch pine have
been carried from their native home
to other parts of Europe and Ameri-
ca and have been found well worth
the attention OF the grower of tim
Der. Several of our own species
have met with favor in Europe and
fIourished there, such as the Doug
las fir. black walnut and others. The
Australian eucalyptus is proving a
great find for America and South
Africa.
Our own white pine long ago cross
ed the Atlantic in response to the
needs of Europeans, whose forests
are comparatively poor in tree spe-
cies, and is now grown commercially
on such a scale that when It is
wanted for planting in its own native
habitat the German nurseryman Is
often ready to deliver young plants
here for a lower price than our own
nUrserymen will quote. Now the
Germans are going to try the west
ern larch also. The request from the
German nurseryman instrncts the col
lectors to gather the choicest seeds
when ripe this fall. One nursery
man on Flathead lake has offered to
exchange iarch seeds for seeds Of de
sirable German shrubs, which he IN
tends to cultivate and sell in Ameri-
ca. In the same region, four OF i've
months ago, foresters Of our own
department OF agriculture gathered
seed for use in the neighboring LolO
forest, where a new forest-planting
nursery was begun last year.
The objects Of the Guelph planting
are. according to local accounts. 70
project the uoEn's water source by 3
forest cover over its springs in the
hills, to make a beautiful woods for
a public park, and to provide for 4
future timber supply as a municipal
asset. In foreign countries. forest
tracts are often owned and managed

vestment and to insure a permanent
