An Announcement by the East
Jordan Board Of Trade.

Many of our cltizens have received
from time TO lme circulars from thf
West Michigan Development Bursau,
Possibly there may be some Who DO
not understand the work which this
bureau IL carrying on. It's sole pur-
pose - TO adyertlse the lands Ut
Western Michigan with view To at
tracing settlers to occupy The un'
improved lands and bring them under
cultivation. The effect of this is not
only to make market for the un-
improved lands but also To increase
The value Of improved property. The
work Is almost entirely 10 the interest
OF the farmer.
"A farmer for every forty" is their
motto and they are making rapid
strides towards settling up all that
part Of Michigan which can be cal led
desirable for farming purposes.
In all western Michigan there Is no
better land than that land around
East Jordan and II this could be fully
understood by investors there would
be no difficulty In advancing the
price OF East Jordan lands.
This information can be- disseminate
ed only by liberal advert Using, and
advertising necessarily costs money.
The East Jordan Board OF Trade
has not Only paid its membership fee
10 the West Michigan Development
Bureaa($2OO) but has also PAID for
some further advertising during the
past year.
AS the purpose Of this advertising
is to further agricultural interests IT
is no more than fair that those who
will directly receive benefit TO assist
10. a small way in deIraying the
necessary expenses. To this end a
solicitor, ]. II. Milford, representing
the East Jordan Board of Trade, will
visit the farmers In the vicinity Of
East Jordan and ask them TO become
members OF the association by paying
a fee u 81. 10 per year.
He also will distribute copies Of the
Wept chigan Development
Bureaus booklet, oyer 100000 which
have been distributed ia Chicago and
at various points in the south and
west, This booklet can also be
obtained at either Of the East Jordan
banks and at almost any East Jordan
place Of business.

which go to make up the entertain ment. While the working horses are massive PercherOns and Normans, the animals used by the bareback riders and the high school" equestrians are nearly all blOOded stock from the best English. German and American breeds. One important feature of this years circus will be the twenty four Arabi- an horses working in unison under the direction of Adolph Konyot, a celebrat- ed Hungarian rider, who is making his first tour of the United States.
 To care for the horses alone, 140 grOOms and hOstlers are carried with the show: two veterinary surgeons and a wagon loaded with surgical and med ical appliances for use in case of ac- cidents and sickness in the horse ranks, are in the immediate vicinity of the big top from the time the trains are unIoaded until the boss canvasman. happy Jack Smelling. gives the signal to strike and start for the next town.
 Several weeks ahead of the circus there goes a contracting agent whose principal duty is to arrange for the feed of the horses in each of the towns where the circus plays. The fact that ten tons of hay are used daily by the Barnum and Bailey show needs no fur ther comment. In some cities it is practically impossible to obtain suit able fodder in such large quantities

Before the ten events scheduled for the day had been shot off some of the most re- markable scores in the history of the association had been made, not alone by the professionals but by those entered as amateurs as we'll

Three hundred and fifty of these horses are used for hauling the heavy wagons to and from the four trains of eighty-nine cars which carry the show from city to city on it's transcontinental tour of Ameri- ca. They also play an important part in the daily street parade. The show could not go on without them. The other horses are performers and are used in the majority of the 125 acts

 Noble Animals.

(FrCm GlenmOre Davis, Barnum &
 Bailey Press Department)
 The expression Greatest Show on Earth" has been used so many times and for so many years in describing Barnum & Bailey's circus that it has taken on the characteristics of a trade mark. People have learned to accept it as a matter of course and have ceased to regard it as a truthful way of describing in a sentence the mag nitude of this tremendous amusement organization.
 Barnum & Bailey's circus will arrive in Phoenix early Monday morning. and when the tents are pitched and the crowds pay their first visit to the cir GUS lot, people will have an opportuni- ty to judge for themselves as to the relative size of this famous show com

and frequently the contracting agent finds 1t necessary to ship in the small towns hay, straw and oats enough to feed the animals. Circus horses are necessarily more valuable than the average fourfooted beast of burden. Ring horses are to the draught horses what the average college graduate is to the unskilled laborer. but even the draught horses must be so sound. so strong and so reliable that they can stand the wear and tear of a circus season where it is a question of work ing all day and most of the night and sleeping aboard moving trains.
 The horses with the Barnum and Bailey circus are worth in the neigh borhood of S5OO.OO0. People who love or who can appreciate a good horse will find infinite satisfaction in exam ming the contents of the big horse tents which will soon be pitched in this city

The professor of philosophy in the
agricultural college of Kansas proposes
a scientic course of matrimony, to be
made part of the instruction in the
public schools of the State. He has
outlined his plan in pamphlet, en-
titled "A Better Crop Of Boys and
Girls" In this pamphlet he repudiates
the old adage. that love is blind"-at
least he thinks It ought not to be Blind.
He says we have scientifically worked
out cards for the scoring of COWS, pigs
and chickens, "but how about scoring
young men and women who are can
didates for marriage? What are the
marks whereby young woman whose
hand is sought In marriage may know
good man when she sees him, and
those whereby young man may know
a good woman" He goes on to argue
that because advanced courses Of in
struction are provided for those who
would improve the breeding of horses,
cattle, hogs and sheep, we should set
up a standard Of requirement for those
who are engaged in the complex and
difficult task of rearing children and
improving the race. All of this sounds
very plausible from a scientific stand
point, nevertheless the idea can hardly
fall to be shocking to refined tastes.
1t takes all the romance out of love
and marriage. No doubt 1t would be
well If there could be some legislation
or regulation to prevent the marriage
of the mentally and physically unfit;
but the Idea Of comparing the mating
of human beings to the breeding OF
cattle is repulsive. The old way of
falling In love has produced good re-
suits on the whole. The race has
steadily improved. Scientific theories
OF raising children may be attractive
to old bachelors and old maids, but
with the father and mother the human
element founded on love is predominant
If all romance is to be done away with
and matrimony to to be based entirely
upon good Judgment and scientific cal
culation, then we would do we'll to
adopt the system prevailing in some
French society, and let the marriages
be arranged entirely by the parents or
guardians, the young people acqui-
escing quietly in whatever arrange
ments may be made. Then the mating
could be as devoid of emotion and SEN
tfment as the most scientific Gradgrind
could wish.

ways shall be exploited by the Chinese
and Japanese, allowing it to be infer
ferred that no one else may exploit
them. The policy of Japan is well
known to be backed by a desire to ex-
tend Its influence as far inland on the
Asiatic continent as possible. 1t needs
space for the expansion of its popula-
tion. Its policy Is also based on the
desire to secure for the Japanese ex-
elusive privileges. The danger to the
commerce Of the western powers, in
Guiding the United States, lies in the
possibility that Japan may be able to
obtain from the Chinese concessions
which are inconsistent with the main
tenance OF the open door for those
powers. If China chooses to resist Ia
pan In this matter 1t will find its trea-
ties useful, for 1t has agreed with the
other nations that they shall nave
equal commercial privileges. But even
II China should be Indifferent, the
other powers will not allow Japan to
obtain foothold which will prejudice
their interests. But before action is
taken there must be more than a sus-
piclon that the treaty rights are threat
ened.
