In A statement sent to the Western
Economic society, w. d. Hoard of Wis
consin declared that most of the oppo-
sition against reciprocity with Canada
was based on politics and that recipro-
city would help the farmers. His
statement follows: ''Back of all this
confusing cry of clamoring politicians
on one hand, and the insurgents look
ing for political advantage to their
group on the other, lies the great basal
recollection with me that always
in the history of this country has the
farmer prospered best when the manu-
facturer prospered best; when the
great army of workmen were employed
and their families consuming largely of
the farmers food. Never once have l
seen agriculture prosper when labor
was idle. For that reason | have faith
that reciprocity with Canada will slim
ulate a demand for the products of
labor this side of the line, and, as day
follows night, will it help the farmers.
Already have the farmers been given a
taste of declining prices for their food
products. Do they like it? Do they
want more of it? Then let them follow
the counsels of those politicians who
are fighting President Taft for political
purposes only, and in my opinion they
will get belly full of it. =

THE American Flag association, al

THE American Flag association, an
organization of individuals and flag
committees from patriotic societies, is
sending circulars to the governor of
each state, to the mayor of each Amer
lean city, the American press, officers
and members of all American patriotic
societies and to all citizens, calling at
tention to the fact that Wednesday,
June 18th, will be the 134th anniver-
sary of the adoption of the stars and
stripes as the flag of our country.
Through the influence of many of the
state governors and the mayors of
large American cities, flag day is OBJ
served by having the flag displayed up
or municipal and state buildings. This
movement is gaining in strength every
year and this years celebration prom
Uses to eclipse all others.

The complexion cure of the Irish so

to the Pail Mall Gazette. The Irish
woman puts on her raincoat, and a
small hat. without veil, and saunters
out for brisk walk in the hardest

on her face as they will. When she
returns to her home she changes her
wet clothes, rubs her face with soft,
warm towel and rests all her facial
muscles.

a great surprise to politicians. both To-

probably Democratic The result In New
Mexico WAS that practically all the state
