One Of the factors in the increasing
cost of living has been the compara-
tive decrease of agriculture as in re-
spect to the growth of population. The
beef trust may be an oppressive mo-
nopoly, but there is no doubt consid-
cradle measure of truth in its assertion
that prices have risen partly through
the scarcity of live stock. The move
ment "back to the farm" which cor
respondent chronicles as taking place
in New England, is one that may well
be initiated elsewhere, says Philadel.
phia Public Ledger. The soil in this
country is still far from being worked
to its capacity, and q much larger num-
Der Of people could easily be support
ed on 1t. The neglect of agriculture
during n period of rapid industrial de-
velopment, to be sure. was natural and
inevitable. But the demand for the
necessaries of life has not reached n
point which should make the supply
of it exceedingly profitable. Here in
the east, too, there are large markets
near at hand-markets at present sup
piled at prices beyond the purchasing
power of many customers.

THURSDAY, DECEMBER "a, 1910

Many people imagine when an arti-
Gle is cast into the dustbin its days are
ended. This, however, is not so, for
all the contents of dust carts are care
fully sorted as they are emptied, any
thing of value being put aside. Dis
regarding things such as scissors,
knives, etc, many corporations are
making big profit out Df their dust"
says Philadelphia Inquirer. You
wouldn't think there would be any
value in eggshells, yet every year as
many as 400 tons are required in the
manufacture of so-called kid gloves,
and also i'm printed calico. Corks, too,
are a valuable item, for they sell to
manufacturers at the rate of nine cents
pound, and in year no fewer than
$500,000 worth are thrown away. Cy-
cles suffer a number of hardships be-
fore they reach an absolute end. Old
tires are bought at quite n good price
by manufacturers for the rubber on
them-inner tubes are especially val
liable and go to make rubber mats
and cheap rubber toys. The frame
supplies gasfitters with short lengths
of tube, and the rest of the machine
is melted down to make n fresh iron
article.

A circular recently issued by the
Missouri agricultural experiment sta
tion records the result of. a compari-
son made in 1912 between two groups
of farmers, viz, 554 who had received
only q rural school education and 102
who had received greater amount of
education, extending on an average,
through two years of high school.
From this comparison it appears that
the better educated farmer is max
ing an income of ia per cent greater
than the farmer with less education,
and even after the labor income of the
latter is adjusted to allow for his
smaller size Of business, the difference
still amounts to about 40 per cent.

Social reform is not to be secured by
noise and shouting, by complaints and
denunciation, by the formation of pur-
ties or the making Of revolutions, but
by the awakening Of thought and the
progress of ideas. Until there be
correct thought, there cannot be right
action and when there Is correct
thought right action will follow. Pow
er Is in the hands of the masses of
men. What oppresses the masses is
their own ignorance, their own short
sighted selfishness.-Henry George.

CHAIRMAN WOOD |S OUT r OR
 WICkERSHA|N

WASHINGTON, Oct 27 - In a statement today by its chairman, Rep resentative Prank P Woods, of Iowa. the national Republican congressional committee urged the reelection of Judge James Wickersham as a dele g4,e to congress from Alaska.
 "AIaskans could not select a better man to represent the territory in con gress than Judge Wickersham," said Chairman Woods.
 His long service in congress for moro than seven years has equipped him, from experience in congressional affairs, to represent the people of Alas&a in Washington better than any one else in the territory. Always vigi- lant for the interests of Alaska and the nation. Judge Wickersham is one of the most valuable public servants in congress.
 "A study of his work as a member Of the territories. mines and mining public lands. military affairs and In dian affairs committees. shows that he has done more in congress for the development of Alaska than any other member
 The national Republican congress sional committee believes that the people of Alaska will recognize the eminent services and high character of fudge Wickersham by re-electing him as a delegate to congress by a large majority"

HOW SOLD|E RS PASS TIME IN
 MEXICO 1

FIELD HEADQUARTERS OF THE AMERICAN PUNITIVE EXPEDITION IN MEXICO. Oct 27. - The army chaplains who accompany the Ameri- can punitive expedition in Mexico have not only marched abreast of their toughest charges clear through to the Sierra Madres, but here they have distinguished themselves in a new way. They have established the first electric light plant within a 125-mile radius of this spot in Chihuahua, for the lighting of reading room and a movie show.
 However commonplace the electric light has become in the states, 1t is still rather an innovation in this part of Mexico, especially fin an army camp in the Cases Grandes valley. But. thanks to the chaplains who devoted much time to pestering the authorities for permission to bring the necessary machinery in on motor trucks. the gas engine, generator and other equipment arrived about two months ago and now the meanest private can read the latest periodicals and write his let ters under electric lights. Even the general hasn't that privilege.
 As for the movie shows, ii is hard to understate their influence for good or the interest they have aroused and sustained. At home, the movies" mean nothing more than a nickel, a short walk and an hour or so killed. But in camp, the evening show is | something to look forward to all day and talk about the next day. Making | adobe brick and other officially pre- scTibed ways Of passing the time soon 1 pail, even cards and dice have their limitations, but the motion picture shows are always popular as ennui breakers.

equipment of Chaplain J Nj. Moose. of the Seventh cavalry. He also man ages the shows, censors most of the soldier mail for several regiments and acts as agent for the money order de partment of an express company From his stipend for issuing these orders came originally the funds for bringing down the films from Fl Paso. He. by the way, has made out money orders about $66,OO0 in three months, But the money he thus ex- pended from his chaplain fund will be paid back from the athletic fund that has grown to almost 5000 from the proceeds of half a dozen boxing exhibitions. Chaplain J. A. Randolph, of the Second engineers, performs the same offices at Fl Valle.
 The reading room, which is well lighted and supplied with benches and tables. Is in charge of Chaplain o. J. N. Scott, of the Tenth cavalry. The Young Mems Christian Association has furnished 61 ,000 envelopes and 160,000 letterheads, which are given out gratis. With the Red Cross and the Young Mems Hebrew Association, 1t also sends reading matter. The tent will accommodate several score. and generally is we'll filled.
 More than five months ago the chap lains filed their application for a cine matograph outfit, but 1t was not until the last day of August that the first show was given. During September there were twenty-six and all were we'll attended. Estimates of the nightly crowds run as high as 5000, and not even regimental minstrels cut down the number of patrons. The section reserved for officers, which holds about 15O. is always packed.
 The crowd comes early and stays until the last flicker Right after retreat, bearing gasoline cans, soap boxes, even cumbersome arm chairs, they secure the coveted positions sur rounding the projecting machine, pre- pared for an hour and a half wait. The show doesn't start until 7:50 and it lasts an hour and a half. Here Is where the chaplain shows his guile. He intends that the performance will both amuse his charges and keep them out of mischief So he holds them until g o'clock. Then there is not enough time before taps to do much of anything but return t) their tents.
