the rural automobiles is as suscepu- ble to what is sometimes called the speed mania as is his city cousin, and even the most conservative agrl- culturist is not averse, on occasion, to darting past his more conservative neighbor who yet drives the patient but less speedy dapple mare.
 A day or two ago farmer who re- gently became the possessor Of wheezy two-lunger. of one of the an- cient vintages sailed through South avenue and past the county buildings at gait which would have made Maud S., in her palmy days, green with envy. The ancient motor car, with it's muffler open, made more noise than an old time threshing ma- chine, but it ate up the miles quick ly. and left a trail of smoke like that emitted from an overloaded can- al tug, as 1t vanished toward Hen> rietta. And no owner of a six-cylin- der touring car of the model of 1914 was more proud of his toy than was the farmer, who once voiced his wrath against the inroads of the "iuggernaut" car.

Farmer Now Burns Gasoline.

(Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.)
 Not many moons ago the farmer. residing in the neighborhood of a city, was outspoken in his disapprov- al of the introduction of the gasoline wagon. He declared that 1t scared his horses, endangered the lives of members of his family and slaught- cred his fowls; that it was, in truth, and in fact, device of his satanic majesty; he gave it the spectacular name of devil wagon," and he de- manded strict speed regulations.
 Now it is different. Providence or Nature, or both, has smiled upon the industry of the tiller of the soil and the grower of fruits of late years. Re- sentiment, which does not for long find lodgment in the heart of men who come close to the earth and com- mune with Nature far from the tur- moil of the city, has given way to the desire to join the ever increasing ranks of automobolists. Everywhere along the countryside garages are now given places of honor above the carriage house and the odor of gaso- line intermingles with that of the uewly-mown hay. The farmer Is enlisting in the ranks of the joy rid- CTS.
 It is becoming apparent, also, that

fnyalidS.
(New York Times.) )

The battle for existence is not to the strong, as shown by the case or the woman of Trent, Penn., a life long invalid, who died last week aged
 1O1. President Victor c. Vaughan
 of the American Medical association
 multiplied instances of great mortal
 ity among strong, busy men ana
 women suddenly attacked by disease.
 They are not prepared for It's trials,
 they put forth their strength in sick
 ness, and they are vanquished. Those
 who are threatened before they arc
 stricken live long.
 They may even attain vigorous and
 lasting health. The case of Theodore
 Roosevelt, who was a sickly child, Is
 in point. Horace Fletcher a
 prey to complication of diseases, awoke to his danger when rejected
 for life insurance at 49, and by talk
 ing thought grew younger, until Dl-
 rector Anderson of the Yale gymna-
 sium pronounced him more strong
 and enduring than his own young
 athletes John D. Rockefeller, who
 seemed a hopeless dyspeptic many
 years ago, has just rounded out his
 seventy-fifth year in good physician
 condition.
 The mystery OI SlChHcSS IS Ii1O
 mystery also of discerning health. Even the most desperate cases have rallied-note that of the woman who year or so ago pleaded that the doctors put her to a painless death because she was doomed to lie, with out moving hand or foot, a lifelong burden to herself and her family. Press dispatches proclaimed the other day that she had recovered and was no longer an invalid. Life itself is a reaction againSt external forces that threaten it, and conversion of those forces. or partkof them, into weapons of defense. In such emergencies pluck, grit and cool-headedness count for much, and when they have extri- cated their displayer make his life still more useful to those about him.

Sec. Bryan's Declaration in Favor of

Washington, July 17.-Secretary Bryan's formal declaration that he favored the granting of the ballot to women was being widely discussed here today. Women suffrage work CTS were enthusiastic over the en- couragement given their cause by the secretary who in a formal statement says he finds objections to granting the ballot to women who are not well founded and arguments in favor of it are convincing.
 The question of equal suffrage will be voted on in Nebraska in Novem- Der and women suffragists here to-. day professed to believe that Sec retary Bryan's announced position on the subject will materially assist them in their campaign.

Kansas City Cattlemen Attributed De
 crease to the Drought.

Kansas City, Mo-, July 17.-Thus far this year 15O,OOO fewer cattle have been marketed in Kansas City than in the same period of 1913, the receipts being the smallest of any similar period in twenty years. The decrease is attributed to the drought in the southwest last summer.
 Prices are the highest ever known for this month. The demand now, cattlemen and meat packers say, must be supplied mostly from grass fed cattle. Another crop of prime corn fed beefs cannot be made they say, until the corn crop of 1914 is avail able, probably not sooner than the middle of November. If August prices for corn fatted steers are as much higher than the July level as they were in 1912, next month will see prime beeves bringing $11 hum dred pounds in Kansas City. Reeves of the sort mentioned sold here yes terday at $9.85
