Plans for another Bull Moose convention in
Chicago seem doomed to failure even before
they are we'll laid. Such an assemblase would
have two purposes, it is stated to name rum
ming mate for John NJ. Parker. Progressive nomi-
nee for Vice President, and to protest against
the Progressive Endorsement of Hughes No pub
lie statements have BEEN made of the other pur-
poses OF the proposed convention. Whatever thew
may be they cannot be less important than the
two purposes stated The Progressive party was
pronounced dead the day Hughes was nominated,
and buried the day the Colonel indorsed the
nominee There is only one who might bring it

The depression in the price of wheat coupled
with reports of large acreages in other countries
is causing the American farmer much concern.
But experts say he need not worry. A study Of
wheat prices during and following wars of the
last 200 years has shown that almost without ex-
ception the highest price has been reached after
the end Of the struggle instead of during its
progress.

Cardui Wins Suit,

After II trial in the United States
District Court of Chicago, before Judge
Carpenter and federal jury. the jury
found the American Medical Assoca-
ton guilty Of libeling Cardui, the won-
ans tonic, which they had denounced
as 'nostrum."
This Is vindication of the medicine
and a proof that 1t has merit, which
was recognized by jury after trial
of three months, one of the longest
civil cases on record.
Many doctors and chemists testified
on both sides and the evidence totaled
nearly four million words.

thing. 1t is only one Of many. All
of the garden products that can be
used In tiny space are utilized, and
around the edges, to work in little
art along with utility. there are flow-
ers.
The Rockefeller cabbage patch is
located in the yard of the world-fa-
nous Rockefeller institute at Sixty
sixth street and the East river, New
York city. 1t is In this remarkable
institution that the wise men of SCI
ence try germs on monkeys and dogs
so that they can learn how to save
the lives of babies and grownups. Many
of the greatest discoveries of science
have been made in the bag building.
But when the master Of the millions
came along he saw something beside
the germs and the mysterious re-
searches Of science in the vicinity. 1t
occurred to him that the germs had
nothing to do with the yard about the
place, and that no amount Of bacilli
could interfere with putting the open
ground to some use.
SO he ordered that the women and
children In the congested, poor neigh
borhood be given chance to raise
vegetables on the unused yard. The or
der brought about transformation.
Now on any day one may see the
woman with the hoe at work on the
garden that fringes the skirts Of
great learning. She Is not bowed by
the weight Of centuries like Edward
Markham's famous "Man With the
Hoe" She is happy in the chance
to make better table for her little
ones at the expense Of man whose
millions do not prevent him from see
ing little things clearly.
