selfindulgence, where work is to be
had for the asking, and food to be OBJ

brought up in rude abundance If the
head OF the household earns in cash
even as little as $3.50 or 5000 a year,
and this he can do by working two
days week. On most Of the tidal
streams a boy Of ten can supply the
family with fish much OF the year by
tending a set net morning and eve

munities where all adults who choose
can earn from 81 to 81 day the year

THE farm Is the place for the peo.
pie of my race" said H. P. Ewing, in
referring to the Kaw Valley Truck
Farm company. I'VE aim to come to
Kansas City and hire our help. Men
who are loafing around the street cor
ners now will be given an opportunity
to earn good wages and also will be
taught practical farming in all its
branches. i.
I'VE are now employing nine men
at the farm and will have employ.
ment for 60 when harvest time comes.
As fast as our capital will permit we
will lease other lands, carrying out the
same system in vogue at our present
location, which we call Farm No. /.
Judge Sims of Kansas City, Kan, has
promised that he will parole to US
some Of the negroes sentenced for mi
nor offenses, SO that we may make bet.
ter men Of them"
Among some of the ideas Ewing
has put to practical use in his plan
for intensive farming Is in the rails
ing of spinach. This he drills in and
eultivates thoroughly. resulting in a
plant that commands a ready mar
ket. Between the spinach rows he
plants tomato vines. In 20 days the
spinach Is harvested and the tomato
plants are in shape to furnish another
good crop from the same piece Of
ground.
In one plot Of 20 acres on the asso-
citation farm he has watermelons, to-
matoes and turnips. Between the wa
termelon rows are two rows of tur-
nips, and between the turnip rows a
row Of tomatoes are planted. The
watermelon vines curling around the
tomato plants steady them during
hard winds, resulting in a sturdier
plant, while the tomato plants furnish
shade for the watermelons, each bene-
filing the other and at the same time
making the ground produce twice
what it otherwise would.
While a board Of directors controls
the Kaw Valley Truck Farm company.
the farm work is under the direct man
agement Of Ewing. The officers are:
Rev. ]. r. Richardson, president; Rev.
Bowen, vice-president; Rev. D. B. Jack
son, treasurer; H. P. Ewing, secretary
and manager; Rev. George McNeal, as
sistant treasurer; Nick Chiles, audi

TALK ELATES WEST
Former Comptroller of the Cur

Dawning.

CHICAGO. Sept. 2.-Business men of
the Middle West today expressed keen
interest in the forecast of Charles G..
Dawes. president of the Central Trust
Company, Of Illinois, and Comptroller
of the Currency under President McKin-
ley, that the nationl's greatest era Of
prosperity is about to dawn
Speaking at a banquet of the Illinois
Life Insurance Company last night.
Dawes pointed to the great crops, the
new Federal banking system, what he
called a natural reaction from the 1913
crisis and the accelerating force of the
European war, as factors bound to
make for prosperity.
There is no reason to doubt that
the United States is at the beginning
of a great era of prosperity said
Dawes, "provided-and l want to re-
fer to that which is perhaps the most
important thing for all Of US to con-
sider-that that quiet, anxious, be-
reaved, and great man, President Will
son, can hold this nation upon an

emergency as he did in that great

72IN PERIL IN WRECK
ON REVENUE CUTTER
Wireless Calls Aid When the
Tahoma Hits Rock Among
Aleutian Islands.

The revenue cutter Tahoma, one Of
the newest and largest boats of the
service. struck an uncharted rock
about forty miles east Of Aeattu island.
in the Aleutian group, off the Alaskan
coast. and Is in imminent danger. ac-
cording to a report received by Captain
Commander Bertholf. Captain Bertholf
received a wireless dispatch from Capt.
Richard o. Crisp. commanding the Ia
homa. which was picked up at sea and
re'ayed from Sitka. Alaska.
Revenue cutter officials awaited fur
ther news Of the Tahoma today with
anxiety. although Captain 6ertholf ex-
pressed the belief that the nine officers
and crew Of sixty-three carried by the
cutter are In no danger, as the ship Is
well supplied with boats. and the vicin-
ity in which the wreck occurred is dot
ted with small islands. on which tho
Ipsn may find refuge.
Reports that the revenue cutter
Bear and the coast survey steamer
Patterson have gone to the aid of
the Tahoma. however. proved to be in
accurate. The Bear is at Nome. Alas
ka, 700 miles away. and could not
reach the Tahoma in less than four
days. Tho Patterson is 900 miles away.
Telegraphic advices from Sitka, how
ever. state that the Jananese steam
er Maru and the steamer Senator
have picked up the Tahoma's wireless
call and have gone to her assistance.
The Tahoma Is one of the revenue
cutters of the first class. 1t was built
at Wilmington. Del. in 1908. 1t is 162
feet long and of ] 1,2l5 tons displacement
The vessel is Of steel construction.
The officers are Capt. Richard o.
Crisp. commanding: First Lieut.. Thomas

PLAN TO RAISE ALL
PASSENGER FARES

An increase of all passenger fares to
a basis Of 2k cents a mile. instead of 2
cents. as at present, is to be made by
all Of the Eastern and Western rail-
roads. 1t was stated on good authority
here today.
This increase Is in line with the sug-
sestion of the Interstate Commerce
Commi ssion in It's decision in the per
cent case. in which 1t was suggested
that passenger traffic did not bear a
fair share of the burden Of paying ex-
penses.
1t is probable that the railroads will
file new tariffs before the end Of the
present month. They must give thirty
days notice Of change.
