Brazil has trade of $500, 900, 900!
The trade of South America is
already more than treble, almost
quadruple, the entire trade of
China.
So suddenly has this come that
the trade of these countries is an
open field for the competition of
the world. Their vast material
wealth of agriculture, of mines
and of forests is just beginning to
develop in them consuming
and purchasing power such as
has never been equalled on earth,
except in the United States.
South America is still an open
field for us to enter and at the
same time, coincidentally with
the opening of this great new
field for the consumption of our
products, we have risen to a point
where we are able to embark
upon foreign trade. We are today

WE are approaching the point

when more and more we shall use
our own cotton in making in our
own mills our own textile fabrics.
When we reach that point where
are we going to pay for our enor-
nous purchases abroad but by

products and where are we going
to sell them?

have been committed for more

1t is no secret that foreign
steamship lines, which are now
our sole dependence for the carry
ing of mails and commerce be-
tween this country and the great
ports of South America, are COM
bined in an agreement to raise
prices. AS the result of the for
nation of that combination every
breakfast table in the United
States is taxed. We bought last
year more than S7O,OOO,OOO worth

DEMONSTRATION PLOTS
 IN OVER TEN TOWNS
Secured For Lessons in Hay Growing
 by County Agent Lincoln.

County Agent Murray D. Lincoln of the New London County Improvement league! has made considerable pro gress with the plans for hay plot ready has plots offered to him for this use in nearly ten of the towns of the county, and others are to be se- cured. one in each town.
 When the plan is in operation 1t will be easy for any one to locate and keep and eye on a demonstration plot as each will have on it a sign indi- eating that it is one of the demonstra- ton plots under the supervision of the County Improvement league. Plots have already been secured in Norwich, Groton. Mystic, North Stonington, Wa terford Franklin, Montville and Yantic.
 The plan is to secure a plot for use on two and three year basis, as this will allow wor variations fin sea- sons, wet or dry. If the experiment were conducted for only one year 1t might be a dry season, and the demon stration might be very unsatisfactory
 One half the demonstration acre will be fertilized, the farmer buying the fertilizer and applying it under the supervision of the county agent. The farmer take, the crop from the fertl- lized acre and also from the other half of the plo< which is used as check plot against the fertlized portion. Careful records are kept of all ex- penses, work and what is realized.
 County Agent Lincoln has been find ing a great demand for visits from him on behalf of the granges. He had not been d member Of the grange be- fore coming here to this work, but at the last meeting of Norwich grange he was one of a class of eighteen can didates who received the first and sec- ond degrees.
 Regarding the announced plan of the Improvement league to form poultry and pig clubs among the boys, the New London Globe said Friday:
 It is the intention of the New Lon- don County Improvement Society to endeavor to interest boys in farm work. Fowl clubs and pig clubs are to be organized and prizes offered. Fine! Applies, of course to farmer boys. Mako them want to stay on the farm, as it were. So far as city boys are concerned, nothing doing Just approach a parent with 8, sug- gestion, that his boy be interested in farming! Just assk the boy himselfi What are you thinking of? My son a farmer" ffMe," a farmer from the boy. Preposterous absolutely : That boys farming club may go all right among farming boys who want to stay farning-but in the city, noth- ing doing, as stated before.

POETRY
THE ExILE's PRAYER.

 Beneath far-off Australian sky an Irish exile lay, The sand from out his glass of life was ebblnS fast away; The friends who stood around his cot nls eyes could scarcely see Ills thoughts, which soon would be at In spirit once again he stood, upon his native sod, Where. as child and as a man. his foot had lightly trod In 1ancy he could feel upon his brow the mountain air And from his parted lips there issued forth the exfle's prayer.
 CHORUS. Lay me on the hillside, with my face
 turned toward the west; Toward that sacred island the land 1 love the best Let bunch of shamrocks green be planted per my grave My dying prayer is, may God bless the Island of the Brave, Eviction foul and cruel drove him far
 across the foam, From that sweet spot which Irishmen
 where CT they be call home; The land whose halls have felt the
 tread of princes and of kings. whose harp once wOoed the world, Is
 now a mass of broken strings; They were forced to leave the land that gave their fathers birth, As strangers and as outcastS to wander
 OCT the earth; The time came back to him again when
 ne was but a child, With memories of sweet rambles
 through her woods and valleys
 wild
 CHORUS. Each eye was wet with briny tears, his words had touched their heart, For they were exiles. too. and time had
 failed to heal their smart; In every cline beneath the sky the Irish race are seen, Yet their every thought is fixed upon
 that little isle green He calls his friends around him, for
 the end is drawing near, And from his pale and haggard cheek
 they wipe away tear. Another victim of misrule has felt the
 hands oe death. God bless you. Ireland" were the
 words that filled his dying
 breath.
