Kindly Thought

/ need no house, I need no bed,
Except the blue sky overhead.
l need no book and need no wine,
The wind and all the world are mine.
/ need no steeple and no spire,
/ warm myself by mine own fire;
/ need no hostel and no dome,
/ bide in peace Wbere'er / roam.
/ need no lamp to guide my feet,
Where'er / go the way is sweet
With light of laughter sweet faces
l lean to with my fairy graces.
] need no throne, for there on high
/ keep my state in Gods blue sky,
And round me like tent His love
Keeps me as warm as any dove.
My house, indeed, is all the world,
My flag the banner never furled;
For where around the world / go
My house is in the heart of woe.
My house is in their hearts that weep,
For when to them in JOY creep
There is a sunlight comes to bring
The warm, sweet glory of the spring.
My house is where ! go to heal
The aching and the pain men feel;
My hostel is the field of strife,
My tent is in the dream of life
There are no heralds run before
To hail me coming to my door;
There are no cOurieTs when | leave,
Though I'm the guest that all receive.
With smiling and with welcome warm,
Or II came in sun or storm,
Or II / come in winter chill,
Or when the sweet flowers paint the hill.
But ever where l roam, the poor
Make me most welcome at their door,
For unto them IL is l go
With wealth that only they can know

that was before the days of agriculture.
When it was Just the process of putting seeds in the
ground and waiting what came up, the process
could be called farming Science has entered into
the industry producing the things that people eat
and it has, therefore. become agriculture.
Not many years ago the farmer sneered at the ag-
ricuturist The farmer was growing things. Tho
agriculturist was the in the laboratoryfull of
theories experimental IDEAS To-day the agriculturst
and the farmer are one. The man of science has be-
come the special adviser of the farmer.
Perusal of the ancient stories of the geological
historian tell us of the days when primitive first
learned to scratch the of the EARTH put down
tain kernels and cover them with earth. That
the beginning of farming. Just slow the devel-

that certain seeds grow best in certain soils the
reasons why
In no other industry Of the world does tradition
die harder than the farm. AS his fathers did be-

oriental countries and undeveoped Mexico plants and
waits measure of the same tendency has long re-
tarded the progress of American agriculture, and in
agriculture America leads the world.
The science of seeds and soils for years was viewed
askance by the farmer.

Efficient Service Require.
Sufficient Facilities

To meet these requirements il Il
essential not only that there be at ali
times sufficient cable facilities, undez
one control, but that they should ID
operated INTERCHANGEABLE with eacH
other and in close physical conncc-
ton with land lines as one system.
Ample spare facilities are necessary
to provide against the very frequent
cable interruptions.
Neither the Western Union nor any
one of the companies of the Western
Union group has, independently of the
others, facilities enough to handle
the business which at times any one
company might be called upon to take
care of, because of some particulars
rush of business, or because of some
cable interruption. Nor could any one
company furnish all the direct circuits
necessary for efficient service, all
though the combined facilities Of
these companies are ample if they
could be used supplementary to each
other and interchange ably.
As it is, each company operates its
own cables through separate and dig
tinct Offices and under separate and
distinct management. All interchange
of business is by actual transfer of tho
business from one company to the
other, with the consequent delay and
interruption of a service in which
seconds are valuable.

Monopoly of Gable
Business Impossible

There is no cable monopoly pos
sible. The three systems-the
Western Union, the French and the
Mackay-will continue to exist.
The Mackay Companies is a hold
ing organization with no physical
property, but exercising through stock
ownership, lease or contract, operat-
ing control of various companies
owning land lines and cables which
make up the Mackay System. Through
this control all the various properties
are operated as one system to great
advantage in service over what could
be given by these same com panies
if operated separately.
The French cables form another
system.
The Western Union System, under
the proposed arrangement for ono
operating control over the present
segregated units, will be enabled to
make two distinct advances In the
transatlantic cable business:
I-BETTER SERVICE. This will be
insured by more efficient and econom-
ieal working resulting from single
direction over the operations of both
cables and land lines,
a-PUBLIC ADVANTAGES. The
greater part of the cable capacity has
been and Is now unutilized. 1t win
continue to lie dormant and unu tilized
under existing conditions and tradi-
.tions. The Western Union purposes
TO make these wasted facilities useful
to the public by means Of new kinds
of cable service.
In addition, the Western Union in-
tends to nationalize IT'S land lines by
opening them to all TRANSATLANTIC
cable companies.

Efficiency Increased,
Waste Prevented

The proposed arrangement between
the Western Union, the Anglo-Amer-
lean and the Direct u. s. companies
will bring the eight cables of the three
companies under one operating con-
troll. The consequent increase in
effectiveness and economy will place
the Western Union in a position to
offer certain advantages in cable
service not now enjoyed by the public.
The other way open to enable
the Western Union to make such i'm
provements and introduce such new
services as it proposes to do, would
be to lay new cables. This would
seem to be the height of folly.
Duplication of the existing trans
Atlantic cable facilities at a cost Of
many millions, when there are more
than ample facilities for all business,
would put an unnecessary financial
burden upon an already fully burdened
business and would probably postpone
the reduction of rates or introduction
of new services.

Proposed Modification of
Existing Arrangements

A provisional modification of an
arrangement which has existed for
many years has been reache d between
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, The Anglo-American Cable
Company and the Direct U. s. Gable
Company, under which the cable sys-
TENS of these companies now worked
exclusively in business connection
with each other, but operated and
separately, will be oper-
ated in direct physical connection
with each other and with the Western
Union land system.
Two objects are to be attained by
this arrangement:
First, more efficient and econoni-
cal operation.
Second, the introduction of neD
forms of service to the advantage of
the public.
