A HUNDRED YEARS FROM Now

The surging sea OF human life for
ever onward rolls,
And bears TO the eternal shore Its
daily freight OF souls,
Though bravely sails our bark today,
pale death sits at the Prov,
And few shall know We ever lived a
hundred years from now.
o mighty human brotherhood Why
fiercely war and strive,
While Gods great world has ample
space for everything alive7
Broad fields uncultured and un-
claimed, are waiting for the
pillow
OF progress that shall make them
bloom a hundred years from
now.
Why should We try so earnestly In
life's short, narrow span
On golden stairs to climb so high
above our brother mani
Why blindly at an earthly shrine In
slavish homage bow?
Our gold will rust, ourselves be dust,
hundred years from now.
Why prize so much the worlds ap-
plause7 Why dread so much
its blame?
A fleeing echo is It's voice OF censure
or of fame;
The praise that thrills the heart, the
scorn that dyes with shame
the brow,
VIII be as long-forgotten dreams a
hundred years from now.
o patient hearts, that meekly bear
your weary load of wrongl
o earnest hearts, that bravely dare,
and striving, grow more
strongl
Press on till perfect peace Is won;
youth never dream Of how
You struggled DER life's thorny road
hundred years from now.
Grand, lofty souls, who live and toll
that freedom, right and truth
Alone may rule the universe, for you
Is endless youth;
When mid the blest, with God you
rest, the grateful lands shall
bow
Above your clay in rev'rent love a
hundred years from now.
Earth's empires rise and fall. o
Time! Like breakers on thy
shore;
They rush upon the rocks of doom,
go down, and are no more;
The starry wilderness of worlds that
gem nights radiant brow
viii light the skies for other eyes a
hundred years from now.
Our Father, to whose sleepless eyes
the past and future stand
An open page, like babes we cling to
Thy protecting hand;
Change, sorrow, death are naught to
us II We may safely bow
Beneath the shadow of Thy throne a
hundred years from now.

YOUR DUTY.

With the approach of st. Patrick's
day many stores will begin to display
their stock of st. Patrick's day
novelties, many OF which, though in
tended to be humorous, can not be
accepted in that spirit by Irishmen
or Catholics. Would 1t not there
tore be prudent for Irish societies
to consider this matter in time and
to see that those stors which display
insulting emblems are informed OF
the attitude of their Irish patrons
toward them? We will doubtless hear
people say that this or that st. Pat
rick's day novelty is not intended
to be insulting to the Irish people. 1t
Is an incongruity which has humor,
not malice, for It's purpose. To them
Il must be answered that not all in
congruities are humorous. Uniting
the sublime with what is obviously
base does not come within the def
milton OF humor. The green which
is worn on st. Patrick's day was or
lginally identified with the sham
rock, which in turn st. Patrick
associated with the Trinity. Now
any attempt to associate the green
with what is low as, for instance,
covering toy pigs with 1t, is carrying
lncongruity to the extreme. It is
indirectly associating the idea OF
God himself with one of the grimest
species of the animal kingdom, a
step which the Catholic can not be
expected to make easily. 1t is the
duty OF Catholics to call the attention
Of those who overlook the meaning
Of such an association to It. No one
would like to see the American flag
made into the shape of a grunting
swine and placed in the windows of
stores for sale on Flag day. And
yet the flag represents only a nation,
while the green is emblematic of the
Triune God. Think 1t over and be
ready to give your reasons for OBJ
jecting TO the association OF the
green OF the shamrock with unbe-
coming objects.

YOUNGEST INVENTOR.

There is no age limit to patentees.
Donald M. Murphy, of st. John, Can
ada, could not even write his own
name when he produced a sounding
toy for which the United States
granted him a patent. But do not
blame him for his lack OF schooling,
for Donald was only six years old
when he filed the application, and
as far as is known is the youngest
applicant for patent In this or any
other country. The toy patented by
him is a simple contrivance including
a bar with handle knobs at its ends
and two clapper disks slideable along
the bar. so that they can sound
against each other and against the
handle knobs.

Farmer friend, can you realize
that today the farmer is the worst
slave we have?
Writing this from a farmers
standpoint, I would request you to
answer these questions:
How many of of you have worked
less than twelve hours day since
March? The majority will answer
fifteen hours. What have you to
show for it? What is the reason?
Did ever slave work harder than
we do t"day for our meager living?
l do not pretend to answer these
questions for you. You must an
swer them for yourself.
Notwithstanding the fact that we
have had a good season and good
crops we have nothing to show for
1t. Mr.. Farmer, it is this, we do
not get paid for our labor.
Ii we could get just one-half of
the retail price for our products it
wonld enable us all to work shorter
hours. Think! Where do we come
In for our work?
Another thing, the orchardist and
horticulturist must have educated
and experienced help. How are we
going to get them? Such men can
not afford to work for such wages
as we are prepared to pay.
The farmer as well as his hired
help must also have time to read
and study. We need him in pol
itics but how is he going to get there
when he is working from daylight
until darkness.
| We must get our produce to the
consumer and have the consumer
pay us something and not give it
all to the middlemen.
| Was slavery ever worse than it
is today? Can we let it run on any
longer? Is there no way to better
these conditions which mean every.
thing to you and me.
When you have answered these
questions for yourself, you will know
what move to make. We have
been run down until now we are
compelled to do something and dc
it Immediately.
If unions have been the solution
in other great questions, is there
no opening there for US?

POTATO BLIGHT

The blight of the potato, which
has this year appeared in the form
of an epidemic in many parts of
Western Washington, has been
identified by the Pathologist of the
State Experiment Station as the So
called late blight a disease due
to infection by a parasitic fungus
Of internal habit of growth. A care
full study of the distribution of this
disease has shown it to be most
common in the New England states,
certain sections of the Mississippi
valley, and in the potato growing
regions of Canada. Occasionally an
outbreak of this fungus pest appears
within our own state as in the case
this year.
The symptoms of the disease are
quite characteristic, its first evil
dence being the appearance of brown
spots on the margins OF the leaves,
and the gradual extension of these
areas, until the entire leaf is in
volved. In moist regions these
spotted leaves have a water soaked
appearance, sometimes accompanied
by purplish tint. A general cpl
demic of the late blight of the po-
tato, often, though not always, ac-
companies seasons of unusual rain
fall. The fungus invades not only
the leaves of the diseased plants,
but the stems and branches as we'll
extending from these, in the case
of some varieties, into the tubers.
The development of the fungus
is very rapid, requiring from a few
hours to three or four days to bring
about destruction of many or all
of the plants in field.
An examination of the tubers of
seriously diseased plants usually re-
veals the presence of discolored It's
sue. This is certain evidence oil
the disease and such tubers should
never be used for seed. Oftentimes
a few or all of the potatoes within a
hill are affected and in cases where
there is plenty of moisture in the
soil, accompanied by warm wealth.
or, a wet rot may follow.
This disease may be controlled
by the use of Bordeau Mixture ii
