SOUTH'S OPPORTUNITY
TO OBTAIN FOREIGN TRADE
May BE We'll 10 strike While the
Iron Seems to Re
" arm.

That the United States can develop
Il great trade with Central and South
America may be accepted without quca-
ton even by those who realize that
the growth Of u trade of this kind must
necessarily be attended with many diff
iicultics.
But" remarks the Manufacturers
Record, our manufacturers cannot
rush into hitherto limited foreign
markets to advantage without II very
careful investigation as to the kind Of
goods that will be salablc and the way
in which they must be packed and
shipped, Neither can we expect that
when tho war is over we shall not
have to meet the most aggressive COM
petition from European countries to
reclaim their Lost South American
trade.
These are the difficulties in the way.
but the people Of this country are
determined that the shipping facilities
shall be provided for Increased trade
between the United states and South
America, and they are determined to
capture fair share OF that trade even
though the effort may be attended with
much difficulty and with large eXpcndi-
lures.
Under these conditions it is of pre-
eminent Importance To the South that
every Southern port should prepare for
this traffic. The steamship lines which
are eventually Ia run between the
United States and Central and South
America Will not run from Southern
ports unless these ports are tirclrss
lin, their energy in securing them.
Traffic from Southern ports to South
America will not iustify the estab-
| lishment OF such steamship lines lIn-
] less Southern manufacturers ana husi-
hess men generally take hold OF the
proposition with all seriousness and
with the determination To win.
"If, however. the South misses the
opportunity of securing direct steam
ship connections with South America.
il Will lose one of the great oppor,lmi-
ties Of it's business life. When once
these steamship lines have been estub
liShcd from Northern ports il will be
very difficult for Southern ports to cap
turc the trade Every port in the SoutI,
that has the basis for justifying n tight
for such an important trade ought to
he vigorously ut work to impress upon
the country its own Importance, and
lit ought to be Immediately and con-
Istantly i'm touch with all OF the forces
l.that will be identified with the de-
'Vcionmcnt Of this South American
tEvadc.
| This is Il situation in which South
Urn municipal authorities and railroads
may well unite In active cooperation
with commercial organizations at
southern ports to bring about these

R7ESTLING among the stately pop
nj lars and the hardy locusts at the
v foot of the snow-capped peaks, of
the Wasatch near the mouth of
Little Cottonwood canyon, is the thrifty
little community Of Union, one Of the
oldest and most historic settlements III
Utah. Far away from the noise and
turmoil OF the city with cool canyon
breezes to clear the atmosphere and di-
minish the heat, the residents Of the
community listen to the music Of the
mountain streams bubbling along the
shady streets and enjoy the peace and
quietude Of well-to-do suburbanites.
The settlement Of the community
dates almost as far back as the settle
ment Of Salt Lake City; back TO 1s49
or 1850, when few OF the hardy pio-
neers established their homes along the
banks. of Little Cottonwood creek But
the erection Of the cabins and the till
ing OF the soil had scarcely begun when
the Indians became troublesome and the
settlers wore forced to unite for pro-
lection.

tract was inclosed with high rock
wall. It was called Union fort and its
site is the center Of the present CON-
munity of Union. The fort was COM
pleted in the early. sos, but, like the
Indians, with tho coming of tho white
men the old walls have gradually disap-
peared and now only occasional traces
of the foundation can be found.
Many OF the settlers abandoned their
cabins along the Little Cottonwood
when the work on the fort was begun
and built their new homes within the
fort. One Of the first, If not the first,
house completed WAS that Of Jehu Cox.
And so well did he build that the struc-
ture stands today in remarkable state
Of preservation and is one Of the prin.

More than tnat, it still serves as resi-

signed for homes were required. Some

What To DO
Everyone Should Know the Symptoms
of Pneumonia and What to Do
Before the Doctor Comes.

A knowledge of home treatment of
various diseases often proves of in
estlmable value especially to those liv-
ing alta distance from town where a
physician is easily summoned. In
every home should be kept a few
simple remedies for use in emergen-
cles for common ailments and diseases.
In this climate no disease is of more
frequent occurrence than pneumonia
and if there are members of the fami-
ly subject to lung trouble, special pre-
caution should be taken to guard
against it, as quick attention given
before the doctor can arrive is often
imperative if a serious attack would
be averted, and in many cases might
save calling physician.
The first symptoms are pain in the
lungs, accompanied either by chilli
ness or fever. If no relief is obtained
and the disease progresses, in few
hours the discharge from the lungs
may become pinkish in color and the
lungs soon begin to fill up, causing OBJ
struction in breathing.
The easiest and safest way to avert
the disease is at the very start. The
common household remedies such as
mustard plaster or turpentine or kero-
sene, mixed with lard, to prevent
burning the skin, applied to the lungs
will help, but what is better and more
important than these, so physicians
say, is that the patient get into good
Precipitation. This is easily accom-
plished by wrapping in flannel or ex-
ira covering. 1t is not sufficient that
the patient be merely comfortably
warm, as the accompanying fever may
produce this effect. AS soon as the
Precipitation begins, pain in the lungs
ceases or begins to grow less. This is
because the circulation is again re-
stored to normal and the pores of
the skin being opened the disease, or
in other words the obstruction, is car
ried off this way instead of through
the cells of the lungs. The cause Of
the disease is removed, viz: closing of
the pores from taking cold.
This treatment should be kept up
more or less until the patient is SO
much improved that there is no dan
ger of relapse.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1914-05-07
BUSINESS SOUND BUT QUIET
Normal Weather is All that is Needed
to Insure Healthy Conditions
in All Lines.

There has been a feeling among
business men all over the country that
business is bad. In commenting on
the present conditions, Mr.. Sprague
of the First National Bank says: De-
velopements in industry, business and
finance, continue to prove puzzllng 70
those observers who wish to take a
broad and impartial view of affairs.
The month just closed centered lacg-
ely on the declining stock market, a
decline in the steel industry and the
poor net earnings of the railroads.
That general business has and con-
tinues to hold up we'll in the face Of
depressing factors is ample evidence
of an encouraging degree Of underly-
ing soundness. The situation as it
has existed the last few weeks may be
stated in a sentence: The unfavoraDlc
conditions have been Over-emphasized
and the favorable ones minimized.
"a study of the bank clearings
shows a great irregularity in business
which is proof enough that there Is
no general slump in trade. In the
last week or two there has been i'm
provement, and even New England,
which has been one of the blue spots
is showing expansion compared to a
year ago. The cotton industry is far
from depressed although quiet, and in
case of the wooden trade it has main
tanned a fair degree of activity. A
factor which cannot account for quiet
ness in business without touching the
soundness of fundamental conditions
is the weather. This has been quite
serious handicap to merchants and,
of course, to manufacturers. The un-
satisfactory winter has been succeed
ed by backward spring. 1t is to be
remembered that a cold snap sufficcd
to reduce the moderate accumuiations
of winter stocks on the shelves and
now the milder temperature has
quickened the demand for seasonable
goods. It would seem that with a
period of seasonable weather the re-
tail demand would be stimulated to the
maximum"

10000, 900 CATHOLICS IN L. S.

There are 16,O67,9S5 Catholics in
the United States, according 10 the
advance sheets of the 1914 edition OF
"The Official Catholic Directory" pub
lished by P ]. Kennedy L. Sons Of New
York City.
The most important feature of the
1914 volume is the new population
figure, showing an increase OF 3iS,-
827 Catholics for the year 1913.
This increase is, according to the
Directory editor, no exageration, ard
is accounted for principally by The
complete reports of the Ruthenian-
Greek Bishop.
This remarkable Increase Of 913,HE7
souls is shown despite the fact that
thirty-one dioceses mace no charges
in the population figures, and despite
the fact that eight dioceses show a
decrease in the number of Catholics
over the 1912 reports.
According to Joseph H Meier, the
editor of the Directory, who has been
studying the population figures for
ten years, the toJai-16.0i7,9 85-is a
very low and a very conservative
figure. According to Mr.. Meier, at
least 10 per cent should ne aided for
floating population"
