the ROUGH ROAD
OF HARD KNOCKS or
the EASY ROAD
OF KNOWLEDGE

On which road will YOU send your
child through life? The farming bust
ness is right on the threshold OF pracfi:-
cal business methods.
1t is needed more to-day than ever be-
fore. The entire business world is fig
uring more keenly than over in its his
Tory.
Your boy or girl on the farm will
have to figure keenly to make the prof
it's that will pile-up wealth for them.
You do not want them to toll their lives
away, and when they have finished their
life's work, have nothing to show for
their labors.
It takes head work to make profits
and its profits that make wealth.
Let your child learn the business side
OF the farm in the College of Commerce.
It's the school best equipped to teach
them.
Its record of successful students is its
best recommendation. Send for Book

Realizing that the class OF Amerl-
can citizens, namely, the women,
who are most affected by tariff duties
know perhaps the least about that
question. one of the eastern maya
zines ladies Home JournaD has
taken it upon itself to educate
housewives. on the details and import
ance Of this question.
The article is in the form OF an
answer from a son to his mother $
request for information on How does
the tariff touch me as woman
After explaining the underlying pur-
pose OF tariff law to be ITO equal
ize the supposed differences between
the cost of production at home and
abroad" the son goes on to say: y
There is hardly thing that
you touch in your ordinary round OF
activities that is not paying AK
to the government if it is foreign
product. or the equivalent OF tax
in it's price if it is American. Sup
pose we glance at your average day.
In m king your morning toilet you
use a china bowl and pitcher, soap
dish and mug, taxed at So per cent;
hair and tooth brushes, taxed 40 per
cent; a comb taxed IS per cent;
tooth powder taxed 50 per cent and
soap taxed 80 per cent.
"Your breakfast is cooked on q
stove taxed one cent pound, and IS
eaten from dishes taxed IS per cent,
and glassware taxed 80 per cent,
with the aid of knives taxed 40 per
cent. Every article Of food you eat
| is taxed varying amounts, from one
oer cent up to 60 per cent and even
higher.
AFTER breakfast Alice practices an
hour on the piano taxed As per cent;
you run sweeper, taxed 40 per cent,
over a carpet taxed A cents square
ward. and 40 per cent additional. You
write letters with fountain pen
taxed IS per cent, on note paper tax
e5 8 cents a pound, and Is per cent
extra. and mail them in envelopes
saxeu 20 per cent. You wind up the
morning sewing buttons, taxed so per
cent, on fathers new overcoat, taxed
a cents pound, and 80 per cent ad-
ditional. On your afternoon out you
wear a silk gown taxed 60 per cent,
and carry handkerchiefs taxed at
least IS per cent. In the evening
you and Alice play game OF DOM
inoes. taxed SO per cent, and when
you go to bed you tuck yourselves IN
between sheets taxed SO per cent.
"And thus it goes, day or night,
walking or sleeping, at work or idle
you are paying tribute. Even after
death the same demands continue,
and the whole climax is capped when
there must be paid tax of SO per
cent on your tombstone.
A mighty battle is impending In
the United States over this question.
Next November every voter who
goes to the polls will try to make
his vote express his view on the tar
if issue. Some will demand free
trade; others will demand that the
tariff be cut down until it represents
only the difference in cost Of produc-
ton here and abroad, insteadApf be-
ing left so high that it not only COW
ers that difference, but gives the Am
erican manufacture plenty of margin
to gouge the consumer without dan
ger of foreign competition"
It will pay any woman to read this
article, and it will be found valuable

preme Court, and said the rule laid
down amounted to this: ''What man
has illegally joined together. let no
court pui asunder.''
In contrast with the record Of the
tariff protected trusts, Mr.. Brandeis
presented instances where prices
have been reduced, and wages raised,
in industries operated under free com
petition Yet the standpatters would
have the workingmen believe that

wall was put up exclusively for their
benefit.
Viii! Gather the Coin.
The republicans have selected the
man who is to be in charge of the
filling of the republican campaign bar
rel for the 1912 contest. He is Fred
w. Uphanl, who was assistant trust
contribution grabber in 1908. Be-
tween pres idential elections Mr.. Up
ham trains with the Busse machine
in Chicago, runs a coal monopoly
during the winter and an ice trust
during the summer, and also has a
lumber company, railroad, and
few banks and trust concerns. An
ideal selection.
