COST OF LIVING STILL
GOING UP EVERYWHERE
Prices Higher Now Than Ever
Before, Except In Time
of War.

New York, June lit costs
more to live in this, the month of
June, 1912, than ever before in the
history of the United States, except
perhaps during war time. Prices
were high year ago, but to-day
they are on the average nearly ten
per cent. higher according to trade
authority quotations. ...
Food products are the highest on
record. Meat, eggs, butter, fish,
coffee, tea, sugar. salt, molasses,
rice, beans and peas average TWEEN
ty-two sper cent. higher wheat,
corn, oats, barley. -four, etc., thirty
three per cent. higher. 9Th. s-s
Fruits are the only things good
to eat that have grown cheaper dur
ing the last twelve months, but they
are still higher than in 1910. Leath-
er products cost twelve per cent.
and chemicals and drugs thirteen
per cent. more than a year ago.
Textile goods, however, are a trifie
cheaper. .. -r.'
The average incl ease In food prod
ucts is nearly twenty per cent,
which means that the housewife
must pay Sc to fill a market basket
that only cost her s. to fill in June,
1911; in other words, 81 will only
buy five-sixths as much as it did
year ago.
The biggest advances have been
in meat products; beef twenty-six
per cent; hog products forty per
cent, and mutton over fifty per
cent. Dealers lay the increase to

general high cost of animal proven

EXAGGERATED IDEAS OF
THE FARnERA ALL WRONG
He is a Man of Intellect and
Study, Quite Up With
the Times.

The farmer was once caricatured
as the embodiment of ignorance
and credulity. He was pictured as
the prey of gold brick vendors. He
was thought to be totally without
savior faire in personal conduct and
far behind in -the-times
information.
But the day when such an idea
of the farmer had much application
has gone and evidences that it is
gone are to be found everywhere.
Here is a very recent one:
Questions asked the prospective
jurors thus far have disclosed the
fact" says newspaper dispatch of
the trial of the packers at Chicago,
that farmers are closer readers of
the newspapers than are persons
who live in the city. AS a result
the lawyers have found that men
from the rural districts, as a rule,
have divided opinions on Govern
ment regulations of business and in
many cases are better versed in the
intent and meaning of the Sherman
act than many of their city neigh
bors."
The old notion of a farmer was
always a gross exaggeration. Now
ii is too far away from the truth to
arouse even smile.
The farmer knows fewer things
than does the city man, but what
he knows he knows thoroughly and
not specifically. Superficial knowl-
edge is characteristic of dwellers of
the city, particularly of the large
cities.
The newspaper Is the one best
means of conveying information,
not only of current events, but Of
the course Of developments, wheth-
er the developments be CONNER
cial, civic or political.
The farmer, cut off from the
many distractions of city life. not
only reads his newspaper. but he
studies it. He thinks on his own
account.
And thus his grasp of public
questions equals where it does not
evceld that of the average city
man.

MIR. BRYAN'S FORECAST OF
THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE

We have now approached near
enough to the Republican National
Convention to forecast the action
of that, body, EX-President Roose-
welt will, apparently, have a major
ity of the D., northern States, while
President Taft seems to- have a ma
jority of the convention--including
the southern delegates, who repre-
sent merely, patronage and Doodle.
Mr.. Roosevelt. has been careful to
arrange for contesting delegates
from the South-this was the first
indication of his intention to bolt.
With a majority of the northern
delegates he is in position to have
a convention of his own in case his
contesting delegates are refused
admission.
The conclusion, therefore, is that
Mr.. Roosevelt will be the nominee
of the regular convention or the
nominee of a boiling convention.
Get ready for his candidacy-he is
quite sure to run.
Can Roosevelt be defeated? Yes,
by any good progressive. A pro-
gressive will hold the Democratic
vote and the Republicans who OPP
pose a third term will do the rest
Mr.. Clark and Mr. Wilson are the
leading progressive candidates
either one Of them can defeat
Roosevelt. The country will never |
have a President for a third term. !

he invited her to GIencairn, where
she remained for fortnight before
the beginning of her London theat-

mer Tammany chieftain physical
culture and swimming lessons.

boss sat in a ffty-cent seat in the

Of Cookers presence, graciously Of
fered him a box, but he declined,
saying that from the box one lost
