fore we are receiving greater proper
t:onate amount of money for our
products. A very considerable pro-
portion of the exports is made up cf
war supplies for the belligerents. We
! cannot export to Germany, Austria.
Bulgaria or Turkey, and the volume
OF our exports to South America, the
Orient and tie other notions at peace
is greater than before the war.
Our accumulation of gold is very
great, in fact, we have a supply near
ly equal to that OF all tie waring ma
tons combined. Therefore we have
vast fund for credit extension.
The close of the war will not i'm
mediately check our prosperity, al,
though undoubtedly large number
OF the men now working in munition
factories will be compelled within a
lew months to seek other employ
ment. Our business is progressing
al such rate that its very moment
um will carry it on for some time
to come, but | do not agree with
the statements which have been made
that at the close of the war we may
expect in this country a prolonged
continuance of the great prosperity
now existing. Therefore | think that
VIC should recognize the more or less
temporary character of our prosperity
and prepare ourselves for It's conserva-
ton
Left to itself our prosperity will
not continue Our chief danger is
in refusing to admit that danger is
ahead.
In this same connection there is
ground for improvement in the bust
ness methods of the national, State
and cuncicpal govern ments
throughout the country These gov
ernments have extravagantly or use
,essly expended many millions OF
dollars. | believe that if the business
methods of the United States Gov
ernment were as careful and econo-
mical as those of many corporations
hundreds of millions would be an
lually saved to the people of this
country. 1t is self evident that il
the Government wastes money and
thereby increase the taxes The cost
OF doing business will be increased
and by the amount of such increase
will We be Handicapped in Our COM

We must be prepared for radical
| changes in volume, in prices, and ir
| resources. There is danger of over

and liability, over-conhdencc. Busi-
ness men should realize there is pos
| sble danger ahead and should pro-
ceed with cautions aggressiveness

its natural resources, its productive
capacity, its location, and with a we'll

recently with the grandson, Morris
Williamson, on the way to Salt Lake

said. II just never had occasion TO go

II raised a family of eight children,
and, although they all insisted, / never
went to see any Of them. They usually
came home once a year and saved me
the trouble. My wife Travelled consid-
erably, considering, and one Of my
daughters has been to Europe, but l

closing days Of the week, today's esti-
mate being 1900 head. against 1,164
last Friday. 406 a week ago. and 1888
the corresponding day a year ago.
Increased supplies of cattle the
past two days here and the lower
markets at outside points during
opening days of the week are caus-
ing a lower closing at the local yards.
Fat cattle trade was weak today and
dime lower sales were not infre-
quent on steers and COW stuff.
Not enough stockers and feeders
arrived to alter conditions compared
with Thursday and the deal was gen.
orally steady.
Hog market developed fair form
and sales showed a steady basis of
prices. Tops landed at $500, with
bulk of sales from $7.65 W7.95. The
market closed strong.
Sheep market was steady with
Thursday. Quality was not especial
ly attractive on the morning market.

artificial teeth have at last been found

Frank Jefferson In divorce court told
y narrowing story Of the manner in
which his wife had frequently forced
him TO come across with money by
the simple e%xpedient of taking his
false teeth and hiding them.
The odd thing, to Jefferson's way Of
thinking, was that even when he wax
ed angry his wife would refuse TO re-
turn his teeth. Only Uncle Sans coin
of the realm would persuade her that
her husbands molars were essential
and necessary to his daily existence.
Mrs. Jefferson's side OF the case was
terse and to the point-hcr husband
had refused her the money she beliey-
cd she was entitled to as lady Of the
house. Consequently she took these
measures to get 1t.
