STRONG POINTS MADE FOR RECIPROCITY BY

LET the agreement be adopted and go into operation and in six
months the farmers on the border who now have fears will rejoice in
neighbors. The whole country-farmer, manufacturer, railroad company,
middleman, warehouse man, all will be the gamer"
THE United States secures for the farmers the free listing Of such
important agricultural products IS cottonseed oil, all kinds of fruits and
vegetables, timothy and clover seeds, eggs and numerous other products
in which the movement to Canada from the United States is much
greater than from Canada to tie United States"
"The difference in the value of the acre between Manitoba and Min
nesota is but little more than So, while the difference between Minneso
Ia and Wisconsin is Sc, between Wisconsin and Illinois is $50, between
Wisconsin and Iowa is $40, between Michigan and Indiana is s3l. These
figures show incontestably that the fear of a reduction in farm land val
uss of this country by letting in Canada's products is wholly uHfounded.
"The principle of production takes away the justification for any
tariff whatever by way of protection, on articles imported from a coun-
try where the conditions as to labor and other circumstances are the
sam as in ous and thus makes the eest Of production substantially the
same"
Should we not, by taking down a useless and unnecessary tarix
wall bring within QUE agricultural resources the great plains of the
Northwest when they can bring to vi what We need and that without
hurting any of our own people"

corn raisers are concerned, Mr.. Taft
showed that the total Canadian yield
was but six-tenths of ! per cent of the
total production in the United States.
Certainly, with respect to corn" he
added, "the American farmer is king
and will remain so, reciprocity or no

This statement elected a quick re-
Spouse from the big audience and the
demonstration was renewed when the
president, In closing, said:
Let the agreement be adopted and
go into operation and in six months
the farmers on the boNer who now
have fears will rejoice in this great
step toward closer business and social
relations with our neighbors. The
whole country, farmer, manufacturer,

President Taft continued his
reciprocity campaign In Illinois today.
During the forenoon he made brief
extemporaneous speeches at Cham
paign and Decatur. In the afternoon
he delivered an address on reciprocity
before the Illinois state legislature at
Springfield and in the evening he
made an address at a Lincoln day ban.
quet in that city.
The president was met at the sta
ton by Governor Harmon, a commit
tee of citizens and a cavalry escort.
After a brief parade through the city,
Mr.. Taft motored out to the fair
grounds. Following his address, he
visited Governor Harmon's home for
a few minutes. He dined informally
with go guests at the Ohio state uni
versity, leaving later for Champaign.
Owing to a severe cold and sore
throat, the president was compelled to
cut a part of the program outlined for
him in this city. In order that he
might receive treatment and be in a
position to carry out the important
speaking engagements on the present
trip, the president brought his physi.
clan, DR.. j. j. Richardson of Washing
ton, along with him.
Mr.. Taft will be back in Washington
Monday morning, to remain until the
end of the session of congress. He
has not amplifed his position as to an
extra session, believing it is perfectly
well understood by this time and that
congress win govern itself according
ly.
Upon the heels of President Taft's
speech about 800 members OF the Ohio
Corn Improvement association, in SEES
sion at the exposition, adopted reso-
lutions condemning the proposed re-
duction in the tariff on farm products.

Columbus, Ohio. In carrying
forward his campaign for Canadian
reciprocity, President Taft made a di-
rect appeal to the American farmer
on that issue. He declared that the
impression which had gone abroad
that reciprocity with the Dominion
would injure the farmer was entirely
without foundation and by statistics
and arguments he sought to lend actu-
al proof to his assertions.
Mr.. Taft declared without reserva-
ton that the reciprocal agreement
with Canada would be a benefit rather
than a detriment to the agricultural
interests of this country. He said he
said this in answer to the criticism
which had been directed against the
measure presumably on the part of the
farmer. AS for himself, the president
said he felt that ~undoubted general
benefit of the pending agreement would
entirely yindicate those who are re-
~sponsible for it.
The greatest reason for the adop-
ton of the agreement, he argued, is
the fact that it would unite two coun-
tries with kindred people and lying
together across a wide continent, in a
commercial and social union, to the
great advantage of both.

dent, docs not need to be justified by

At the Corn Exposition.
Mr.. Taft's address. the first of his
present trip into the middle West, was
delivered at the National Corn expo
sition in the auditorium at the state
fair grounds. The auditorium, which
has a seating capacity Of more than
1900, was crowded to overlooking.
The crush about the doors was so
great that the services of a score of
policemen we're called for. MI. Taft's
address was listened to with the deep

plauded at intervals.
The presidents speech consisted in

HEREDlTY
Can BE Overcome In Cases.

The influence of heredity cannot, OF
course, be successfully disputed, but
It can be minimized or entirely over
come In some cases by correct food
and drink. A Conn. lady says:
Fer years while ] was a coffee
drinker I suffered from bilious at
lacks OF great severity, from which I
used to emerge as white as a ghost
and very weak. Our family physi-
clan gave me various prescriptions for
improving the digestion and stimulat-
ing the liver, which / tried faithfully
but without p~erceptible result.
"He was acquainted with my fam
lily history for several generations
back, and once when / visited him he
said: III you have inherited n of

suffer more or less from its inaction.
We can't dodge our inheritance, you
know,
II was not SO strong q believer In
heredity as he was, however, and, be
ginning to think for myself, / conclnd-
ed to stop drinking coffee, and xse

II have used Postum for three years,

fer from, and / have been entirely

fleets that used to result from them.

When one speaks Of granite the
mind naturally reverts to Vermont. 1t
is difficult to associate granite with
any section Of North America outside
New England, yet 1t must now be ac-
knowledged to the credit of the south
that Georgia, North Carolina, Mary
land and Virginia are producing large
quantities of stone Of good quality
which insures the south q place In
the market at any rate.
The annual output is now worth
about $3,500,000 and the industry is
growing. 1t may be of comparative
interest to know that New England's
output is about $1,000 900 worth of
stone annually.

on the picture, reading:
