Judge of our surprise after reaching

every day for over two months. She

which were given to another hen.
Gin about two weeks she began lay

Revival Closes.

Scranton, October 5:-The revival
services at the Methodist church
here closed Sunday night. Rev J
@ Burnette of Jordan did the
preaching and great interest was
manifested, and, we believe, much
good accomplished.
Rev Mr. Burnette handles his sub
iects with a great deal of thought
and care. He breaches with force
and earnestness that holds his au-
dlence spell-bound. His sermons
on the doctrines of the church were
very instructive and impressive.
At many of the services penitents
crowded around the altar seeking
salvation and a number of additions
were made to the church member
ship as result of the meetings.
Those who heard Mr. Burnett's SER
mon on the second coming of Christ
say it was the best Of the week, and
was the subject Of much favorable
comment. Should he ever return
here he will be greeted by even
larger congregations. | NJ e.

footing. This section is big pro-
ducer of wealth, and the average
man IS straightforward and good
moral risk.
Nothing but drastic conditions
can arrest such a general era of
overexpansion and overspreading as
we had before the war. 1t is very
good thing that this has taken place
and is now behind US. Looking to
the future, the country has undoubt-
edly profted tremendously by the
experiences of the last year and the
lesson taught by them.'

New York Banker Finds Pros
perity In South.

Vice President Beverly R Harris
of the National City Bank of New
York, the biggest bank in the Unit
ed States, who has just completed a
trip covering the South and South
west, gives in the Manufacturers
Record of a recent date very COM
prehensive review of the business
outlook in these parts as he saw it.
Mr. Harris says:
The South and Southwest in my
opinion, are getting on a sounder
credit footing than ever before, and
my feeling is that these sections are
about to enter the best and most
prosperous epoch in their history. l
look for a. great advancement in
population, wealth and the average
conditions of life within the next
decade. One of the important fac
tors in this will be a greater abund-
ance of money and cheaper average
interest rates. This territory pro-
duces real wealth-the consumable
commodities which the world must
have-and. with better methods in
the future, is bound to become very
rich and populous. Conditions, in
my opinion, are now distinctly on
the upgrade, and the outlook never
more consistent for a return to real,
genuine prosperity on a rock bot
tom basis.
Nothing is needed, however, but
better credit methods and more
thrift-as the experiences of the last
twelve months have proven-to rap
idly overcome the extravaganza prior
to that time and to get on a safe

THE SLUMP IN BOOZE.

According to the Wall Street Jour
nal of New York City, production of
whiskey in Kentucky in January was
100000 gallons against 6,102,452
gallons in January, 1914; productions
in Pennsylvania was 1,O73,836 gallons
in January against 1,553,445 a year
ago and in Maryland, 506,919 against
91S,592 last year. WhiSkey bottled
in bond in January was 691 sos gal
Ions, compared with 928,1S7 in Jan
uary, 1914, The decrease in Ken
tucky's production of whiskey amounts
to 66 2-3 per cent; in Pennsylvania it
is about 33 per cent; in Maryland
more than 40 per cent. These figures
(and others, for February, March
and other months), indicate that the
distillers, who can look ahead like any
one else, see that within few years
the commercial demand for whiskey
will fall off at the rate of unprece-
dented speed. The ditillers are buying
newspaper space in more than one city
to argue that prohibition doesn't pro-
hibit-that more liquor than ever is
being drunk in this country, but that
is a bluff. They are curtailing pro-
duction and quietly discounting their

manufactured articles that are usual
" imported and come into competition
with American manufs lures the glee-
ful S'We told you SOS" of the protec-
tionists are wholly inapplicable. The
whole doctrine of protection rests up
on the premise that it is advantageous
to restrict importation of all kinds
that compete with American products.
This has been accomplished by war
to a greater extent than ever was
done by any Republican Payne-Ald-
rich law, so that in effect we are liv-
ing under a sort of super tariff. which
we cannot escape. Under the protec-
ton theory we should have been inor-
dinately prosperous the past year.
Of course no reasonable argument
on the tariff can be based on the pres
ent utterly abnormal conditions, and
nobody but shellback protectionist
would attempt it. He, however, new
