The total wealth Of the warring nations
is $3oo,O00 900, 900, and if Tesla 3 figures On
the total cost of 200 days fighting are cor
rect, they mean that nearly Is per cent d
Europe's total wealth will be the sacrifice
which must be paid for the terrible spec
tacle which Is now going on.
For fifty years, Tesla says, Europe mud
pay and pay, and not even then viii tho
account be closed. Coming generations with
out blame for the conflict, will be burdened
with penalties. Even the victors will bs
penalized, for no gain of territory or war
indemnity will repair the losses which do
struction Of property, the killing Of human
beings and the manning Of others will bring
even to the victors.
The United States knows something about
wars penalties. We are yet paying the price
of conflict fifty years ago. That unfortun-
ate war tremendous handicap on tho na-
ton. The South suffered most, but the
North, conquering after tremendous sacrf
fices of men and money, is only now begin
ming to feel the burden lessen.
There will never be another war between
North and South. It is known now thst
men can live in harmony, and we realize
that America would be much further along
the road of progress had the Civil war never
been fought Europe will learn the lesson We
learned Wars accounts are not settled
when the fighting ends.

may grow to great mentality and physical
endowment by careful consideration Of the
proteids, carbohydrates, calories and gen.
eral foods that enter into his dieti These
and kindred questions are raised through the
organization of what is known as the "Clab-
Der Cult" which recommends the adoption
Of diet Of peanuts, raw cabbage and bonny-
clabber as a producer Of intellectual and
physical supefmen.
It is not claimed for the cult that one
may proceed to mental and physical heights
at one bound by close attention to the diet
Rather is it urged that devotees must have
patience, and await the slow and cumulative
effect of the years before realizing all that
is promised them.
No doubt one who confines his gustatory
wants to peanuts raw cabbage and bonny-
clabber over term Of years is entitled to
some high reward, says the Seattle Post
intelligencer Those who have followed the
diet for some months admit that the calm
pleasures of the dining table have vanished,
and that eating has become matter OF rote
However, there are present rewards. Tho
colony is free Of dependence upon the ordi-
nary food supplies, and as long as the plod-
ding COW continues in its work and the
goober and cabbage patches thrive the prob
lem Of living is greatly simpified.
Whatever the outcome of the experiment,
it is probable that humanity in general will
prefer to follow the old method of catering
to the appetite within the limits of the purse.
There are too many people who prefer to
live we'll while they live, rather than to live
abstemiously and live long. Without the
pleasures Of well-filled table, there are
people who would prefer to lay aside the
troubles of life and take nice, long sleep.

EUROPE'S PAYMENT.

n IIKOLA TESLA estimates the cost Of
N Europe's war at the end Of the 200th
day at $7O,OOO,0 100000. The mind can
hardly grasp the magnitude of such figures.
Tesla goes further than experts who have
merely estimated the cost Of military opera
tions. He includes the economic values of
lives which will be lost, the economic waste
through the crippling of able bodied men,
the cost of disease, the destruction of credit
and purchasing power, of property, CON-
merce and industry, taking in every factor,
immediate or in the future, which enters
into the conflict. He also estimates the price
which nations at war will have to pay for
retardation Of social progress.

torlal IN school paper may Apply:
Have an aim in life. Set up your goal and
then work with all your heart and soul to
attain it. Make your goal the big thing in
life, make it all yours.
High school students are too often with
out definite purpose in view. They are
not quite sure what they are attending
school for; they are simply going The aver
age girl or boy thinks of life after school
days as some vague unreality in the misty
future, something that will take care of
itself. Why should they give it second
thought? Concentrated effort means every
thing in this age Of specialization. To be
"Jack- of -all-trades" acknowledges in ineffl-
cheney now, and sooner or later acknowl-
edges failure. Throughout the history OF the
world the big men Of affairs have had one
aim in life. Napoleon, poor Corsican, made
himself master of France and her domain
simply because he set out to do so and kept
on until he bad accomplished his end. James
K. Polk set out to obtain California, and ne
got it. What these men have done on large
scale, every one Of you can do in narrow

engineering, make yourself an engineer; if
you have liking for science, take up some
scientific work; if you enjo working In the
out of-doors be farmer or surveyor. ANY
good, honest occupation is a worthy goal.
Make something Of yourself, and start In

NORTHWEST 1915,

for drawing the travel to the Califor-
MIA expositons at San Francisco and
San Diego through northwestern routes, a
conference Of the governors of Washing
ton, Oregon, Utah, Idaho and Montana has
been called by Governor West of Oregon, to
meet in Portland on November 26 and 27,
at the opening of the Pacific Northwest
Manufacturers and Land Products Exposi-
ton in that city. 1t is hoped that at this
time plans may be formulated to secure
northwestern routings for the visitors and
for the entertainment Of the tourists when
in this country. Governor Hiram johnson
Of California has also been invited to be
present at the meeting.
One purpose Of the meeting, if plans are
successful, will be to get the visitors to stop
Oft in the rural districts of the states inter
ested rather than to confine their attention
in the Northwest to the larger cities This is
Q movement which should have the hearty
cooperation of all farming folk for the in
terest of easterners in our agricultural and
stock raising pursuits is of decided value in
the development Of the Northwest. Too
often the tourist gains his knowledge Of the
resources Of the great Northwest in hasty
glance through car windows as his train
speeds across the land.
The agricultural communities form the
backbone of a state and their influence in
the development of the Northwest should
not be overlooked. In spite Of the splendid
manufacturing concerns that gain footholds
in the large cities and bring thousands of
men to the Northwest it is the land which
holds the possibilities of the future. The
more men who can be attracted to the farm,
the greater the prosperity Of the state.
In passing it may be mentioned that the
Manufacturers and Land Products Exposi-
ton in Portland is worthy Of the serious
consideration of the entire Northwest. The
holding of such fair is certain to result
in friendlier relationships and a wider
knowledge of the resources of the North
west
Should the conference of governors pro-
posed become fact it should make for a
greater Northwest. The securing of the enor-
nous hegira of visitors to California has
been through thousands of dollars spent in
advertising the Panama Pacific 1nterna-
tional Exposition. 1t remains for the North
west to profit by this in getting the travellers
to take the northwestern route. Entertain
ments of many kinds may be planned for
their benefit and everything possible should
be done to make their stay a pleasant one.
The states along the southern route to
California might object to our capturing the
travel, but there would be nothing to pre-
vent the visitors from taking that route on
their way home Yet, it is before the North
west to begin stern fight to persuade the
tourists to come by way of this fertile sec
ton. They will be much more receptive to
first impressions received in the Northwest
than to latter impressions of the Southwest
We want the visitors to see the Northwest
first Make that the slogan of all loyal sons
of the Northwest. "See the Northwest
first"
