, but. placing their confidence in the
weather mans forecast. those in
charre took advantage Of the oppor-
tuuity to make final preparations for

1ust as soon as the sun presented
itself. They were not disappointed.
and even at noon the crowd number
ed close to 10000. BY 2 p. m. the
grounds we're crowded. and all through
the afternoon they continued to come.
Archbishop ireland visited the
grounds twice, and each time he ex-
pressed his surprise at the proportions
of the crowd and the orderly and cap
able manner in which it was being

upon to speak, and responded with a

cost of maintenance was $435 in
1912. In 1911 it was $4.73. This was
not the expenses for repairs on each
meter repaired, but the average for
all meters in use. The small house
holder in story-and-a-half cottage
pays a water tax of $4.68 per year
1t is readily seen that repairs on
meters alone is more than the aver
age tax of the ordinary householder
and is one of the main reasons why
the meter should not be installed.
They have an average of rs men in
the meter repair shops to keep the
10000 meters repaired. 300, 900 would
require at least 800 more plumbers,
to say nothing of teams and drivers.
The average salary of these rs men is
Sc a day. The increase in salary for
the meter repair department would
be about $1,300,000.
The 1911 report tells us that the
city has beeh experimenting with a
number of different types of meters
and hopes to soon present a perfect
meter which will give entire satisfac-
ton to the public. We are credibly
informed that there is a new meter
which has not yet been placed on the
market, but which will be placed on
the market as soon as the water
meter ordinance is passed by our city
council. 1T Is SAID THAT A NEAR
RELATIVE TO ONE OF THE
HIGHEST OFFICIALS IN THE CITY
OF CHICAGO CONTROLS THIS
PROPOSED NEW WATER METER.
The Water Bureau, under the law,
can use its funds only for the pur-
pose of keeping up the expenses of

HOW EDITORS GET RICH.

After a great deal of worry and
study we have at last figured out
how SO many country editors get rich.
Here is the secret of their success.
There is child born in the neigh.
borhood. The attending physician
gets $40. The editor gives the loud.
lunged youngster a great send-off and
geths 50. It is christened, and the
minister gets IS and the editor gets
500. 1t grows and marries. The editor
publishes another long-winded flowery
article and tells dozen lies about
"the beautiful and accomplished
bride" The minister gets $40 and a
piece of cake. The editor gets 5000
and a request to carry the groom's
subscription account another year. In
the course of time she dies. The doc.
tor gets from SIS to 500, the minister
gets from IS to 500, the editor pub.
fishes a notice of death and an obit.
uary two columns long, lodge resolu-
tons, lot Of poetry and card of
thanks and gets 10000. No wonder so
many country editors get rich.-Ex.

The person who let's the other fel-

The person who lets the other fel-
low set both the selling and buying
price is not getting his fair share.
The farmer is in just about that kind
Of q fix. How can it be remedied?
Labor was in just that fix until they
organised. When organized in unions
they could bargain as to the thing
they had to sell-their labor. The
farmers will have to cooperate If they
want to have something to say In tix-
ing prices. The fruit growers of the
west have become prosperous through
the fact that they are organized. They
no longer put their whole fruit crop
on the market the day it rlpens and
so glut the market. They hold their
fruit until the market needs 1t. In
this, way they get good price all the
time. They do their own selling so
no one can manipulate the market.
Some seem to think that a big or
organisation is necessary. 1t is ad-
vantageous but the beginning must
needs be small Three or four farm
ers can very well start cooperating
They can grow the same kind of hogs
and market together. II in dairying
they can sell their cream together.
They can buy their groceries together
