ITS USEFULNESS GONE

OiiSAhoiiy Vic iAOlCSIfC tol Ill III
the United States was based on the
theory that a moderate duty should
be maintained on imported goods
until such time as hor:e ind ustries
could be thoroughly established,
and able to take care of themselves
in competition with foreign manu-
facturers. The original pro-
tectionists were willing.to have the
duties removed when that time
arrived. This may be called the
infant industry theory.
After becoming intrenched
behind the barrier Of a protective
tariff and enjoying the benefits
of the special privilege thus
accorded. protected manufacturers
evolved the theory that a per-
manent tariff should be maintained
in the interests Of the American
laboring man, because of the higher
wages paid to him than to foreign
laborers. This was the wages
theory Of protection.
When by comparative statistics
it was shown that the labor cost
per unit of product was higher in
America than in Europe, because
Of the superior ability of the
American labOring man and the
more effective organization of
American industry, another point
of view became necessary to justify
the protective system, and the
theory was promulgated that the
tariff might be, even to the point OF
the absolute exclusion of foreign
goods because competition between
the rapidly developing American
manufacturer would keep prices
down to q reasonable level.
There came the era of trusts and
combinations to sutain prices, and
the purchaser of American manu-.
featured proucts realized that they
were at the mercy of the protected
industries.
This aspects Of the problem was
the real cause Of the wide spread
demand for a downward revision
of the tariff, that. in recent years,
has agitated those members of the
Republican party who are not
direct beneficiaries of the tariff
hut who have been sincere
advocates of protection because
they believe that it benefited the
country as a whole.
Outside of the ranks of direct
benefciaries of protection, who
are fighting to maintain the special
privileges they enjoy, practically
the entire Republican party has
now settled back to the theory
that the protective tariff should be
only sufficient to make up the
difference between the cost of
production abroad and at home.
Necessarily,a corroll airy of this
theory is that no protection is
needed against the products of n
country in which conditions of pro-
duction are similar to those of the
United States.
On this ground President Taft
is insisting that the reciprocity
agreement between this country
and Canada is just and should BE-
adopted.
This marks an advance step
which means the ultimate downfall
Of the whole protective system,
because unprejudicial investigation
will demonstrate that in most
industries the vast resources, the
enormous home market, the
inventive genius, and the capacity

coal than any nation outside of the
United States except Great Britain
and Germany and is. firmly established
as second Of the. great coal pro

the average price of the coal OF the
state for 1910 was but ninety-two
cents a ton. Had the-aevrage price
been onlysSa- dollar ton, which is
not high price for the coal OF
other states, the coal operators OF
the state would have realized in
round numbers five. million dollars
more in one year for their output.
'Tf the small mines are left out
of consideration" said Mr.. Parker,
there were only three counties in
West virginia in which the average
price of coal in 1910 exceeded one
dollar per ton, and the aggregate
output of these three counties was
only little over 100000 tons
less than two per cent of the total
production. The general average for
the state was 90 cents. In 1909 1t
was SO cents.

in the superior quality of coal. but
this is largely dfcounted by the lack

While it has been known for some

1910, the actual figures have not
been made public before. The total

for 1910 is stated by Mr.. Parker as

of nearly ten million tons over the

Landscape Gardening

Frederick J. Haskin in Sioux City tribune.
Landscape gardening as a profession is
one OF the newer callings in America, but
during the past decade it has progressed
faster than any other. In communities
where the appearance, of the landscape
has never before been considered. beaut1-
ful picturesque effects will be achieved
during the coming ummer. After an
American usfne man has acquired q
comfortable competence his mind natur-
ally turns towards securing beautiful en-
yfronments for himself. The American
landscape gardener Is prepared to meet
these demands. so that all who are able to
employ high skill in out-of-door art. can
find plenty of their own countrymen com
petent to produce the required effects.
America now rivals Europe both in the
number and beauty CT its large landed es-
tates.
The competent landscape gardener must
be both a scientist and an artist. He must
have a scientific education enabling him
quickly to determine the chemical compo-
sition of soil, the relative heat and cold
of a locality from its exposure to the sun,
as well as the climatic conditions required
for the growth of he various trees. plants
and ~shrubbery. Then, in addition to pos
sessing the eye OF an artist. he should
have the ingenuity of an inventor for he
must be ever ready to suggest original de-
signs in compliance With some idea, per-
haps absolutely in~congruous, OF his en-
pioyer.
The work OF a skilled landscape gardener
may be felt in It's practical commercial
value in a year or two. A progressive real
estate firm in a New England village two
years ago employed a landscape gardener
to improve the appearance OF three blocks
of ground for the site OF several apartment
houses. The situation was carefully stud
led. u practical plan laid cat in which
certain hardy trees and shrubs were suit
ably placed. Proper attention was given
to the parking and some plain. comfort
able apartment houses were erected. AL
though these were much less expensive
and elaborate In their construction than
other houses in adjoining squares they
were Immediately taken at much higher
rent, the rental value In a single apart
ment averaging from Sic to $50 a month
higher. all because of the attractive sur
~roundings.
The value of the landscape gardeners
work is being recognized by the municipal
authorities and in consequence the present
season is showing more active results
along his line. Shelton. Ia, a~pproprlated
$4,000 to be utilized this spring by a hewly
appointed landscape gardener to provide
