Last night marked the close of ere of the most important weeks of the entire contest and was one of the hardest weeks of the contest to secure votes and subscriptions, assthe heavy :. rains the first of the week made 1t impossible for contestants to get out among their friends and secure sub- scriptions. This however c1me to stop two days ago and since that time contestants have been using every minute of the past two days to secure every vote possible as all realize that they should make good use of the clear skies which prevailed on the closing of one of the best weeks Of the contest.
 All the contestants who are out for contest ihonors added thousands of votes to their reserve that will be used to good advantage at the cloze of the contest Ard that it will take good reserve is evident by the great num- Der of subscriptions that were sent in by both the city and country con- testants, and it is a toss up at this time as to who will poll the biggest vote at the final close.
 There is yet plenty of time for you to get in ard be Q winner All that is required is plenty of energy and per- severance in approaching your pros pect Do not let him put you off with the old saying "at the close of the contest" Now is the time that you want the subscriptions, not next sum- | mer, and if the party is really friend of yours they will net hesitate day in giving you their subscrip- tions for a year.
 It will only be a few days more and the automobiles will be handed out to the leading contestants of the city and country and their friends will be congratulaitng them on their popular ity Be the enc to receive the con gratulations of your friends and the public on April 9th. Then there are the other prizes to be awarded, each and every one of them worth the time spent in securing them. In fact such grand opportunity has >-ver been presented to the public In this terri tory or state before.
 Quoting the worss of one gentle man who happened to be standing near the automobiles in front of the Graphic office yesterday afternoon, Tt is certeinly the most generous offer of a newspaper that I have ever heard of for city of this size and the dis

states will soon osass 70 have .
surplus Of feoa stuRs for export


In n recent census bulletin the state
ment IL made that It IL only by reason
OF q great reduction in the expectation
Of agricultural products that the in
creasing consumption OF the country
has been supplied. Should present CON
dltions continue Il will not be many
years before we shall have TO look 10
other countries for much Of our food
supply. The contemplation Of such .
possibility forces recognition OF the
pressing need for improved cultivation.
France, Germany and other European
countries are now far in advance OF the
duction Of foodstufs. In the United
States the average yield Of wheat per
acre II about Is bushels, and In tho
NetherlAnd o. bushels.
THE statistics as to the production
Of potatoes are particularly striking. In
1909 France produced 10 bushels Of po-
tatoea per acre. Germany ~ bushels.
Russia 1S bushels. and Belgium 22s
bushels. In 1911 tho United States pro-
duced but 90 bushels OF potatoes per
acre and the importation OF potatoes
into this country II now assuming con-
siderable proportions.
The availability OF cheap money for
loans on farm lands would stimulate the
buying Of farms by many who now rent
land for cultivation. II would encourage
many engaged In other occupations to
purchase land and take UP farming a.
a means Of livelihood. At the present
time ~ per cent Of all the farms OF the
country are cultivated by tenants-an
increase Of 10 per cent since 1900 The
cultivation Of the soil by owners Ia OF
great Importance to the highest asricult-
, urai development. Tenants naturally are
not as much interested IN preserving
the vital qualities Of the soil as ars
owners. The selfish interest Of tenants
lies in getting all they can from the
| land during the years or their tenancy
with little thought OF providing against
the permanent Impeachment OF tho
soil"

health may follow facial treatment,
but health itself lies much deeper than
the surface.

and digestive organs. The weary
eyes. bad breath. frequent headaches,
pimples and general air of lassituds,

are various remedies prescribed for
