continued and, too, if the beef-eating
public is to secure its regular quota at
prices below prohibitive levels.
The nation has in recent years
dawn too heavily upon the source Of
fat beef output, without due regard to
the future of the supply. Farmers of
the corn belt have been prone to look
to the west and southwest for their
supplies Of feeding cattle, not realizing
that the increasing population is con-
stantly calling for greater home pro
duction Of fat beeves.
Time has arrived when the west, a
few years back the breeding ground
for the corn belt feeders, is no longer
able to supply feeding cattle to the
farmers Of Missouri, Iowa, Illinois,
Indiana and Ohio except at almost fat
steer prices. The situation is growing
more acute each year. Within the
past two years the effect of home pro-
duction of beef steers in the states of
the middle west has been relatively
shorter supply of beef than consump-
tive capacity required, and the results
have been higher average prices for
fat steers than realized in thirty years
past. But instead of general prosper
ity it has been prosperity for the few,
because cattle raising and feeding has
declined.

SOME FRANK REMARKS
ON CATALOGUE BUYING,

The latest news is that company
backed by several million good, hard
American dollars is going to start a
great retail mail order house in New
York City and make determined effort
to secure the bigger part of that kind Of
trade all along the Eastern half OF the
country.
Along with this comes the announce
ment that one of the great Chicago mail
order houses has opened 100000 branch
in Kansas City and that it has acquired
a number of acres to take care of its ex-
pected expansion.
Also, we are told. Postmaster General
BurlesOn expects to ask the Interstate
Commerce Commission to allow him to
increase the Parcel Post weight limit to
100 lbs. Some people think il he sue
ceeds in this undertaking that it will
mean in the end nothing more or less
than flat rate for Parcel Post from one
end of the country to the Other.
You can put two and two together and
II you should conclude that the sun seems
to be shining on the retail mail order
mans side of the hedge so far as all out
ward appearances go you will not be
very far from right.
Now why is it that we have the nerve
to make these bold statements. and thus
give publicity to conditions that would
net seem to favor the country retailer?
We say these things to prove to you
that we are not afraid of retail mail
order. We don't care how fast it grows,
or how muny cities it invades. We are
not particularly worried over the out
look for parcel post. We.are not among
those who take peSs mistic view of
the future of the country town and the
country retailer We have confidence in
their ability to please customers and
thus get business, no matter what the
retail mail order houses may or may
not do.
We merely want to reiterate what we
have said before and that is they can
meet or beat retail mail order prices.
There are, we will admit, some things in
the retail mail order catalogues on which
they are undersOld, but they can save you
money IN the aggregate of your pur-
chases. Furthermore, they can prove it
if you will give them chance.
We are not going to quarrel with any
body who feels like sending away his
money to the big catalogue houses for
the necessities of life. We buy where
we can buy to the best advantage, all
things considered. Don't forget that
the "all things considered" part of the
proposition means a whole lot.
This much is sure-we are not going
TO knock the catalogue houses in an I'M
fair way. We not going to call them
robbers, because they are not. We are
not going to call them business sharks,
for they are not.
We do insist. however, that it is not
to the best interests of the average con-
sumner to buy of the retail mail order

IMPORTANCE or CLEAN SEED
Corn Crop of Country Has Been In
creased Millions of Bushels by
Good Seed Selection.

No farmer can get any one to take
the same pains in grading his seed
that he would himself. Some farmers
claim that it does not pay to clean
grain.
The corn crop Of this country has
been increased millions Of bushels by
intelligent seed selection. ALI other
grain crops can be improved by grad
ing the seed, SO that only good, plump,
healthy grains. free from all foul
weed seeds may be sown.
The tanning mill, judiciously used
will do much to increase the yield Of
every small grain crop and assist in
keeping our fields free from noxious
weeds.
1t will take cookie out of wheat,
buckthorn, plantain out Of clover, in
fact, it can be adjusted SO as.to han
die all kinds of grain and weed seeds.
II you decide that it pays to SOW
good seed and to keep your fields
free from noxious weeds, then do not
hesitate to invest few dollars in
a tanning mill.

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

1t is with regret that the meeting
Of the Twilight Club was SO inhar-
monious. School questions should
be discussed but bitter words will
not help much. Watertown has
public school system that it should
be proud of and words of praise
should rather be bestowed upon the
superintendent, the teachers and
school board for the great advance
made in the past ten years. The
school board is to be especially
commended on the adoption OF the
new courses and the new changes
which they have brought about and
which appear in the school board
proceedings Of the last meeting
which appear in this issue of the
Leader.
The president Of the State Retail
Merchants Association stated at a
meeting here that great aid to
local merchants was the large at
tendance of farmer children in the
city schools. We think therefore
that it was a mistake to raise the
rural tuition-a low tuition is a
special inducement for the farmer
to send his children to school here.

Preparation of Orchard.

As the orchard Is to occupy the
land for several years, the work Of
thoroughly preparing the soil before
planting is important.
Whether the planting is to be done
early or lats in the season, there is
no time during the whole year so OPP
perfume for effective work with the
plow, subsoil plow and harrow as just
after the first good fall rain. At this
time the subsoil is moist, not wet, and
lasting benefits result from stirring
and pulverizing the subsoil to good
depth when it is in just the right con-
dition
