For the past four years ! have been
corresponding with the 80 Welsh
colonies that are in the United States
and Canada, and other Welsh people
have been doing the same, keeping
them in close touch with the noted
Montezuma valley land. Now the
time has come to have them locate
here. l have told all about the valley
in the Welsh papers. and will do all !
can for to get them to locate here.
They have the money ito do SO. All l
ask from the people that desire to sell
is just half the amount now paid to the
real estate men-my price is only ~
per cent. If fail hope do no harm
and if l win that's all l am after and
the welfare of our noble valley.

By an important amendment to the
Postal Savings Act just approved by
President Wilson, q postal savings
depositor may now have an account
amounting to $1,000. Formerly $500
was the Maximum amount he could
have to his credit. This enlargement
of postal saving facilities win be very
gratifying to thousands Of depositors
who have already reached the old $5O(
limit and are anxious to entrust more
of their savings to Uncle Sam. Another
feature of the amendment that will
avoid further embarrassment to the
public and to postal officials is the do
ing away with the limit on the amount
that could be accepted from q depos-
itor monthly. Under the old law only
500 could be deposited in a calendar
month. The amendment abolishes this
restriction. This will be welcome news
to the painters, BARRIERS and printers
who are usually hampered by some fool
regulations in amassing fortune.

lwest admits that fhe hitherto rock
ribbed state Of Illinois IS very
doubtful = fact some time ago
known to gtbose familiar with 3 the
Situation. ~ MONS
Francis j. Heney states that Cal
ifornia is sure for Wilson, the Pro-
gressives there not being sheep that
follow blindly, but people whose
politics, are based on principles.
David Lawrence, Of The New York
Evening Post, after a tour of the
state of Minnesota, puts that state
in the Wilson column, and Michigan
is placed beside it by many political
judges. Strong confederation is Civ
en- this by the fact that Michigan Is
being given ten times the amount
of attention usually given it by the
Republicans. From the big guns
they are firing there one would
think it a Democratic verdun in
stead of a state usually rolling UP
a 100000 Republican majority.
$ From every state reports backed
by solid facts and reasoning come
in showing a tide of faith and 10y
atty toward the President moving
steadily over the land.
1t may lack sound and fury and
spectacularity; there are none Of
the ''haying" or "scourging' or
the the Hskinning them alive" features
in the movement such as character
ize the Republican campaign. 1t is
too deep for sound or foam. But it
moves forward and onward with in
evitable impetus, having behind it
as its source and force the grow
ing belief that President Wilson
has preserved us from war and
more than maintained, has in fact
increased the national honor; that
he has served the farming inter-
ests and the laboring interests as
well as the financial and business
interests of the nation with wisdom
and courage; that he has emanci-
pated the children of the country,
served the cause of humanity
abroad and kept faith with the
American people and with the world.

A SONG OF WHISKY

Sing a song of whisky,
A pocket without a pence;
A purse that's always empty,
A head that has no sense.
Four and-twenty jailbirds
Under lock and key,
Curse the drink that cost them
The birthright of the free.
The Brewer in his counting-house
Is counting out his money;
The Bar-man in his parlor
Is eating others honey.
While starving little children,
And women lean and poor,
In rags and broken hearted,
Beg from door to door.
Sing a song of whisky
Sound it all the time;
The horrid song of whisky
Sorrow, sin and crime.
-Everybody's.

Most Written-Up Country

If you were to mass the books on Italy the mountain of volumes would per- haps compare in size with Aetna and Vesuvius, for Italy is the most written up country on earth. In the March Woman's Home Companion Laura Spen- cer Portor says:
 France can show you hundreds of volumes written about the history, the art, the life of her greatest city; Eng land as many about hers; yet the books written by men of all nationalities about Rome and the Romans exceed them all And there are, besides, hundreds of vol umes about Florence, as about whole country: about Sienna and about Venice. These, it seems. are tireless subjects. The half can never be told of them.
 If one says over only those names which come most readily to mind, the names of the great of other lands who have travelled to Italy and loved her and written of her. what list it isl Montes- quieu. Milton. George Sand, De Musset, Hans Andersen, Landor, Wordsworth, Hunt. Hazlitt, Byron, Shelley. Keats. Scott Sterne, Gibbon. Reynolds, Thor waldsen. Goethe.

FURTHER BREAK
 IN WHEAT PRICES
Largely Influenced by Foreign Situation and
 Early Gains Are Lost

Chicago. March 1.-Disturbing reports rine issue in Congress and touching the status of the German ambassador there caused wheat prices to break today after the market had rallied from the bearish effect of news that seemed to show in- creased activity in the destruction of British ships. Prices closed nervous 1z@ ssc to &c net lower, with May at s1.11s4 and July at s1.0S7s.
 At first the trade appeared to be in- clined to take a pessimistic view of the outlook. Prices accordingly fell, infiu- enced to some extent by bearish estimates of domestic farm reserves Later the at tention of the majority of speculators veered to reports of unusual active buy ing on the part of ,millers at Minneapolis and to advices of serious winter killing in nearly all of the soft wheat states. The result was a temporarily forcible upturn in values.
 Washington developments took effect on wheat chiefly in the last hour of trade. In addition to word that vote was to be forced on the question of garning Americans from taking passage on armed merchant ships, baseless ru- mors were current that Ambassador Bernstorff had been given his passports. The result was to more than wipe all advances in wheat quotations and to leave the market at the finish in a de- cided1y unsettled condition
 Corn weakened with wheat. Besides a bearish construction was paced on es- inmates of farm reserves of corn as well as of wheat. Export saes of 100000 bushels of oats failed to act as much of a stimulus of the oats market. Quota lions of oats appeared to depend almost hn ~H AAI.

FAIR SPOT DEMAND STEAD|ED MARKET Values Had Higher Trend on Opening Call and Cables
 Stimulate Buying

New Orleans, March 1-Reports bearIns on the foreign relations of this country were the main influences in the cotton market here today, causing both ad. vances and declines It was not large market but the tone was steady. Except on one or two occasions, little pressure to sell developed. The net change for the session was loss of 2 points
 Value had d higher trend on the open ing call, buying being stimulated by good cables. The active months went to points over yesterdays close. This slight advance was followed by a sharp slump to a level F to 1s points under yesterdays final figures, brought about by offerings based on the report of the sinking of two British ships which the trade feared might bring complications in the submarine controversy. The market held steady at the decline and finally recovered almost to the level of yester- days close on reports of indications that Congress would indorse the administra- tion's foreign policy
 To some extent, the market was stead led by claims of a fair spot demand. but no great attention was paid to anything but international politics.

Curiosities of Hindu Etiquette

Homer Croy in Leslie's.
 You can never tell what is manners and what isn't in India. When woman wants to be very polite to man she turns her back on him: it flatters any Hindu man to have a pretty woman plainly and ostentatiously turn her back on him. Between husband and wife there Is queer system of etiquette. whatever happens, a Hindu wife must, never mention her husband by name. when she goes to call on her neighbor lightly chatting the afternoon through. comparing notes on the latest nose-rfnes and the best way to stain the fingers with the fashionable henna, she must never let the conversation swing around so that she will have to mention her husband, If she should go so far as to forget her. self and mention her lord and master to her shocked companion, her hostess would soon yawn and explain that she had to go and put the bread in. How ever, she can talk about her children alb she wants to; there is nothing in the Hindu etiquette book against that. She can tell what funny thing Jamjiji said the other night at the supper table. how much he helps her around the house and delicately hint how much brighter he is than the other children in the neigh borhood, but she must never under any circumstances mention his father.
 Even stricter social rules govern the men. One Hindu man must never aAK another Hindu man how his wife is get ting along. That would brand the man as not having the slightest idea what drawing room usage was. All the men at the club would shun him: no one would dare to ask him to como over to the table and have grape juice for fear right before everybody he might ask how his wife was. When a Hindu goes to call it is not good manners to leave until the host gets up and tells him to go.

MARKET
 MAKESLATE RALLY
While Close Was Steady Confusion in Reference to
 Shipping Affects Prices

New York, March 1.-An early decline was followed by rallies in the cotton mar ket today with May selling from 11.34c to .43c and closing at the latter figure. The general list closed steady, net 1 point higher to points lower. March be- ing higher while others were unchanged to points lower.
 Sentiment seemed to be very nervous and unsettled during the early trading owing to renewed confusion with refer ence to shipping conditions. Steadness in Liverpool was quite generally attrb- uted to the reported advance in marine war risks, and after opening easy at an advance of points on May, but gener- ally 1 to s points lower, active months here sold off to net loss of 8 to 13 points. Irregularity in the stock market uneasiness over political conditions and uncertainty as to the effect on shipping facilities of the new submarine policies seemed to discourage recent local buyers. Their liquidation was also promoted by weakness in New Orleans, while there were New Orleans selling orders around the local ring, and the decline to Il 53c for July and Il. TOO for October carried these months back to within or points Of the recent low levels. The decline was then checked by covering and prices showed rallies of 10 or 12 points from the lowest in the later trading with part of the buying attributed to covering of hedges by southern spot interests against recent sales of actual.
 Trading was generally quiet during the day, and it did not require large orders to influence prices Rumors of easier ocean freights in the southwest may have been factor on the late afternoon rally, but sentiment with reference to the export outlook was unsettled during the entire day, and much of the trading here Was supposed to represent an evening up or commitments pending fresh develop ments in this direction, or some change in the news from the south. Some scat tered buying by local trade interests were sad to be against calling by spinners.
