BOOSTERS.

The much-alixeness of the Plym-
outh Commercial Club is clearly
shown by the manner in which they
are boosting the Home Coming and
Harvest Festival week in this city.
The thoroughness, spicyness.' com.
pleteness and effectiveness of their
advertising. as well as the character
of the entertainment to be given
must be admitted by all. The pres
ept tour of the surrounding counties is
a foretaste of what is coming.
Those few who some months age
were wont to say that the CONNER
eial club could not do much and
would soon come to its end, have al
most altogether vanished in thin
air-at least we haven't seen mol
heard "hide nor hair" of them fol
some time. By the time the Home
Coming week is over everybody In
the city viii be booster for Plym-
oufh. and it will not be necessary tc
talk with a man to convince him
that his own city is the very best on
earth.
Let thts boosters keep on boosting

ABOUT CORN PALACE

huron. y d., August 80, 1911.
Mr. 5. L. Boys:
Deaf. SIR
AS | have been in South Dakota
for the past three weeks from Yank-
ton to Huron, | feel | can tell those
who would like to know the condition
out in this country how things are.
The reports that every thing is dried
up not true although it was very
dry and hot in the early summer,
however they have had plenty of
rain since then.
[ spent several days in Mitchell
and drove out in the country In ev-
erv direction and found corn good
with small grain fair. Mitchell is
where they hold the Corn Palace
each year, they are working, ON it
now. The Corn Palace is man.
moth building covered from top to
bottom with beautiful designs made
of different colored corn. There are
farmers there who raise the different
kinds of corn each year for the dec
Grafton of this building. From there
] came IL the Milwaukee railroad to
Alpena where my brother met us and
we drove to our ranch where /
helped make hay. The first time
had helped make hay on the old place
since we. (my brother and mvself),
were BOYS twenty years ago. Hay Is
not as heavy as in former years as
1 the early dry weather hurt it, still
they are getting enough for use this
winter with few tons for sale. Hav
ont here is $40 per ton. MY brother
has about % tons up and will put
up that much more. Wheat. oats,
speltz. millet and corn on our place
is good in fact my brother says he
has much better crop than he had
last year.
The farmers / have talked with
seem to feel good although they say
this is an off year. They have stock
and plenty of feed for this winter.
/ am informed however that west of
the Missouri river it is not so good.
but the late rains have brought on
the pasture so the stock is all right
l was just talking with the secre-
tary of the state Gair and he says
they are going to have the best fair
this year they have ever had. More
entries in all branches than has ever
been \ known. / was out to the
grounds yesterday and they have
beautiful buildings with everything
modern improvements. They not
only have the fair during the day
but also at night, with the races at
night under search lights. Thousands
of people visit the fair, not only from
South Dakota but other states. They
run excursions as far east as Chicago,
do not know how far north, south
and west they 90. Land here is worth
about the same as in Indiana from
$40 to- 1925 per acre owing to the
location and improvements. Well, I
will close as l have given all there
is to give in regard to things in
this part Of the west.
Yours respectfully,
! ]. M. Steele

OBITUARY.

Houstin Kramer was born in
Wabash, July 10, 1882 All the
years of his life have been spent in
this sity except year or more at
De Pauw university and one year
later in Oklahoma. Houstin united
with the Methodist church, when
quite young boy during Rev. c. U.
Wade pastorate and at the close of
his probation was taken in full
membership by Rev. Herrick and
from that time to the day of his
death he was faithful earnest
Christian. Four weeks ago Houstin
bought out the thinning derpart-
ment of business firm in Plym-
outh, Ind. and three weeks ago
yesterday he entered upon his new
business enterprise with great hope
of success-and even IN these three
weeks had made many friends.
There is no one In Wabash who
merits more words of praise and
love than Houstin Kramer. All
join together in pronouncing him a
true consistent Christian a truly
genial good young man lived
above reproach and worthy of the
love and confidence of his fellow
man, surely Houstin did. lie was an
active worker In the Sabbath school
having served as an officer and
teacher for many years. He was al
so faithful to every duty assigned
him in the Epworth league. He
served as one of the district officers
for several years. He was a faith
full member of the choir and his
deep. baritone voice sounded the
earnestness of his spirit. His tes-
timonies in the prayer services were
always fall of his intense desire
to do his best to honor his God.
Everywhere in all departments of
our church work Houstin will be
greatly missed-He was loved and
esteemed by everyone, and his loved
ones have the deepest sympathy and
sincere prayers not of his church
alone but from the whole community
and from everyone who personally
knew him.-Wabash Daily Times

BUDDHA.

This is the 2500th anniversary of
Buddha. SAYS the Review of Reviews
the anniversary of what the
Orientals call Buddha s attainment
of enlightenment"
In the Hindustan Review, Prof.
H. G. Rawlinson has a long analysis
of Buddhists and their historical
mission. After telling again the
story of the great religious founder,
the Professor derives from it four
chief lessons:
First. its intensely practical
character. The ideal of the Buddhist
religionNis (1) to cleanse ones own
heart, (2) to love and help our fell
low men.
Second, its inder Evidence. "Man. is
mans own SAVIOR
Third, its splendid -altruism, Glove
for all men, and the power of in
ward culture over the human heart.
These are the keynotes of the Bud
dhist faith.'' ~
Finally, the cosmopolitan char
acter of that faith. Perhaps, he
says if ever he east finds unity and
lasting peace, it may be under the
great creed which expresses in so
universal form the mighty truths
of Indian wisdom.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
Dun and Bradstreet ShoW Conditions Generally
Improved Throughout the Country.

New York, March A-Bradstreet's re-
view Of the state Of trade tomorrow
will say: 6
Trade reports do not differ materially
from last week, and, while individual
lines show some variations, business as
a whole Is quiet For this the long pres
ent caution in buying. irregular weather
conditions, the late Easter season, and
the increasing activity of the farmers in
crop work are all held responsible. The
volume of house buying is smaller at
most cities. and the returns from travel
ers on the road are now the chief source
OF new business at wholesale
"Jobbers report the demand for some
time past to be for small lots for quick
shipment. Retail trade for spring has
not yet opened up actively. owing part
ly to cool weather. At some cities price
reductions are still in evidence to move
heavy goods
Women's wear goods, notably milli-
merry, fine dress cottons, and similar ma
terials, are quite active, and the advance
of the season seems bound to benefit
these from now on. Clothing is quiet, and
the shoe trade could be more active. On
the other hand, the seasonal period helps
building somewhat, and paints. despite
the very high PRICES of materials. show
more activity.
In the farming regions, implements,
fertilizers. and seeds are all active. The
lumber trade is irregular. The agricul-
tural situation shows good progress. and
winter wheat is as a whole in good shape,
considering the aforementioned start last
fall"

REALTY AND FINANCE
Stock Exchange Session Was
Uneventful. ,

Only on after call was any appreciable
activity developed at yesterdays session
of the Stock Exchange, and the whole
proceedings showed practically no real
business.
A small skirmish developed over
another offering of Bank Of Washington
stock. These shares have been coming
into the board for sale for the last two
weeks in small lots. The Offering yes
terday was at N4. but despite efforts to
draw forth a better price the buyer main
tanned a uniform bid Of 21, at which
mark ten shares were sold
The fact that there has been an addi-
tional issue of more than $4,000 of Po-
tomac consolidated bs tends to keep
the price in these securities around
par. They are now being offered at
100. with the bid price steady at 997s.
but as these bonds are held largely in
this community any disposition TO make
any fair commitments for investment
purposes undoubtedly would call for a
better price.
Railway Is were traded in to the extent
of $4,000 with the price varying from Sc
for single thousand to S511 for round
lots.
Tradings in Virginia secu-
rifles were without feature Common was
strong at S61:.
Railway preferred was strong, coming
up with good front and selling at SS4

Georgetown Gas attracted some atten-

rupted for time by a discussion anent
the possibilities for further advancement
in the stock. in the course of which one
of the debaters expressed the opinion
that there was no stock to be had. A

New YORK. March A.-Todays cotton market
was strong, but inactive throughout the session.
Infnences most under discussion related to sta
tistics and the Census Bureaus report proved a
strong argument in favor of higher prices
The report made the stocks held in America
by spinners farmers. and in warehouses on Feb
rasry IS last TO be 40ds sE bales This cpnpares
with 66 bales held on the corresponding date
Of 1910. From this report it appears that not
withstanding csrtailment and unfayorabie trade

bales Of their stocks during that period though they
have probably taken npOo bales les from the
worlds supplies since September l last
The amount brought In sight from farmers hands
during the week s 90 34 bales against ll2 36 bales
