A FITTING SELECTION.


NNlnDeTly SaIl
1t is eminently fitting that William
Howard Taft should be selected to
head the peace league of the world.
MIR. Taft has had wide experience in
diplomatic affairs. His success in
making friends with the Filipinos
regardless of their views on independ-
ence and his triumphs in other diplo-
matte fields, show that he is big
enough and broad enough to head
movement of the kind now inaugural
ed Mr.. Taft has the qualities of a
really great man in very many re-
spects He is not a great executive
tor he fails to get in touch with the
masses at certain angles He is not
autocratic or ariStocratic in tempera-
ment, and is as friendly with and to-
ward the poor man as toward the
wealthy and so-called great, but he
tails to realize what the people are
thinking about He knows diplomacy,
because he knows diplomats. He
knows what the lawyers are thinking
about, because his is eminently a Judi
cial mind. And as the details of any
peace plan must be worked out BY
diplomats and lawyers, he is especially
htted Tor the work which the head Of
such league must assume.
MOREOVER. i'll this respect, Mr.. Taft
has the confidence Of the American
people. He is no demagogue He has
risen above petty politics and has low
ally supported his successor, Presi-
dent Wilson, in carrying out the for
eign policies which he has adopted.
He has. placed patriotism above per-
sonal pique.
Before he became president he made
a great record as war secretary, as
Judge, and as a diplomat Since he
left that high Office his word and work
has shown that he still retains the
powers in this respects that elevated
him to the only position which he has
ever held in which his success was un-
qualified. The country will rejoice
hat he has been spared to fill posi- |
ton. in which he may do the world |
much service.

It is whispered that Senator Borah

toga and get in training for the Re-
publican presidential nomination.
We don't believe the senator will
drop anything of the sort until he

therefor, firmly anchored. Borah

their agreement and this makes the
trip prohibitive, unless water trans

FARMERS, BEWARE

The eagerness with which some
OF our farmers are accepting the
bait that cheap loan sharks are
offering to them seems appalling
and The Chieftain believes this
to be the opportune moment to
warn all not to sign the applica-
tions for the loan until they know
just when they will receive the
money.
Under the terms of these bogus
contracts you are to begin at once
paying off the debt of say $1,000
at the rate of $40 per month, but
mind you you haven't got your
$1,000 yet. You have the prom
ise, though, that whenever the
company has the money to spare
you'll get your loan.
In other words, unless you have
been initiated into the mysteries
of geometrical progression you
may imagine that this sort of
thing can go on indefinitely; but
if you will take up your pencil and
figure it out, estimating the num-
ber of applicants for loans at
present to be 100. there would
have to be ten times as many
applicants the following year as
this year, and so on ad infn.
If, instead of paying $40
month into the treasury of one of
these companies, one were to de-
posit $40 month in a savings
bank, which would allow him in
terest month by month on all his
deposits, the following table
shows what he would have to his
credit at the end of each year.
The first column shows what he
would have to his credit in a saw
ings bank that allowed him 3 per
cent; the second column shows
what he would have to his credit
in savings bank that allowed
him A per cent. 1t will be noticed
that in either case, by the end of
the fourth year, he would have to
his credit more than $500.

BACK OF THE COW?

Reader, are you aware that the
dairy products of Wisconsin are
worth more than all the imported
raw silk or all the combined i'm.
ports of raw and manufactured
wool, or all the tin, all the iron and
steel and all the fertilizers CON-
bined as imports? The Wisconsin
COW 10 some animal.-Rural New
Yorker.
It is not the evolution of the
Wisconsin COW alone, although she
is great. But back of the COW is
the evolution of the farmer. More
light has shown on his path in this
dairy business than has shown up
on the farmer of any other state.
Let any farmer who was handling
COWS thirty years ago compare him
self and his knowledge of COWS
with what it was thirty years ago
and he will see pretty quickly why
the COW is what she is. 1t is the
development of the brains of
many farmers in the direction of
producing better COWS that gives
any state its proud prominence in
dairy farming.
