From the Los Angeles Express.
Some one whose name we do not recall
that the United States has built its last
great city. The prediction Is somewhat
startling, and indeed 1t could be rather
disconcerting were 1t not for the fact that
IL Is only a prediction, only indeed an
opinion. and no one Is compelled to take
stock in II. For our part, We think the
prophet is mistaken. but we do agree with
him part way. Fewer large cities will be
founded and builded in proportion to the
country's population for the future Is 60
ing to find a larger percentage OF the peo-
pie on the soil and a smaller percentage in
the cities. The cities of the present day
have come in response to a demand, and
so will the new cities in the hereafter, to
serve large territories now scantily popu-
la sd, but which will then be closely peo-
pied and highly productive.
- 1t is perhaps true that disproportion-
ate part of present day manufacturing in
cities, which Is the basis Of their popula-
ton, has to do with the creation of lux
uries which in turn have called for artifi-
cial and extravagant standards of living
at high cost. II there Is anything In the
apparent logic of the situation, II Is clear
ly indicated that the demand of the future
Is going to be for a heavier production and
creation of the essentials OF life, particu-
larly the things we eat and wear; and

more people are going to reject the hurly-
burly and strained existence of the city
and devote themselves to taking comfort
able ''livings'' from natures storehouse,
at first hand. Under past conditions the
soil has served the cities. Hereafter the
cities must serve the SOIL
Any hope of attracting present city
dweliers, in large numbers, back to rural
life is probably vain; but there Is every
reason to believe there will be fewer de-
sertions of the country by country-bred
men and women, while conditions are
gradually shaping themselves to make ag-
riculture and its allied arts doubly attrac-
tive to those who come from afar.

They are trying In New York to find out
who gets the rake.off on eggs. Some re-
cent sales there disclosed the fact that
eggs are selling as high as 90 cents. The
farmer gets II cents, the middleman in
the west got 23h cents, the jobber paid
the wholesaler & cents, the retailer gave
the jobber an average of 2S1k cents and
in turn charged the consumer from 35 to

Clyde Poulter, of Kansas City, Mo-,
began his professional career as pub
lie entertainer in the fall of 1905, and
has met with phenomenal success. No
other ARTIST has so won the hearts
of the people wherever he has ap-
peared. Mr.. Poulter is the smallest
entertainer on the American platform,
being only little over three feet tall,
but he uses the talents God has given
him to make the world better, brighter
and happier. He is a man of high
ideals, and while his programs are
mostly humorous, back of all that hui
NOR is purpose. Throughout all his
programs, Astounding in humor and
pathos, SO varied as to please alike
both old and young, he presents his
characters of real men and women
without the use of costumes or make
up accessories. Absolutely different
from the usual humorous entertainer,
he leaves a burning impression. Just
to see what "That Little Man" can
do is an inspiration to everyone. Mon
day night at the Christian Church.
