IMPOSSIBLE TO FORECAST
ANYTHING, HE DECLARES
Prccedcnts Are Shattered by Hughes

tBy Champ Clark, Speaker of the
House OF Representatives.
Washington, June il.--So long as
1t is undecided whether Col. Roose-
Welt will accept the nomination. the
situation Ia so mixed, so nebulous and
SO uncertain that even II the greatest
of major prophets could return to
earth, reincarnated, he could do no
better than guess. His prophecy
would rise no higher in dignity than
a mere guess,
But II Col. Roosevelt accepts the
Bull Moose nomination one thing IL
absolutely certain In the impending
campaign: Three able and patriotic
Americans whose names are familiar
to the ears of men are the presiden-
tial candidates, two of them of world
wide fame. Wilson and Roosevelt,
Napoleon tried to abolish the word
impossible, but he wound up at ST.
Helena. notwithstanding his effort at
amending the dictionary. there are
still things Impossible" In this world.
and one of them Is to say anything
new about Col. Roosevelt
Roosevelt Not Feased.
Every term. good. bad and indiffer-
ent, of praise and blame that the
combined ingenuity and Imagination
of man could invent has been applied
to him-and II has not leased him.
He Is stu in the limelight. and will be
till he ceases to talk. which will be
also the time when he ceases to
breathe.
President Wilson is much in the
same case--except that he has not
been so much abused and that no.
body has as yet compared him to Ma
poleon as soldier. Some perfervid
eulogist hot-foot after an ONCE. NAV

Oyster Bay. n. ", June ii
The great trouble Is that however
Colonel Roosevelt may kill him.
self of. the people won't permit
him To remain dead. kilograms
have poured In to Oyster Bay all
day demanding to know what he
Is going To do next.
There are reports of half
dozen delegations headed this way
to ask him to come out openly In
support Of Hughes or to ask him
to reconsider his dcclination to
head third ticket. Perkins,
Cortelyou, Van Valkenburg, Nc
Grath are all expected tomorrow.
There will undoubtedly be a series
OF conferences for the next few
days.
An emissary from Hughes is ex-
pected at any time. Colonel Roose-
veit's support Of the Republican ticket
many and a determined effort to bring
him into line is already In sight.
though there Is little to be said about
L just at present.
Ont of Politics, He isepeats.
II can be repeated with even more
tonight than last night that
Colonel Roosevelt is through. He re-
peated today his declaration that he
Is out of politics.- He went further.
He requested the newspaper cores
pondents not to visit him. This prop
osition is not absolute. OF course. He
extended a cordial invitation to them
10 visit him socially at any time. but
added:
II will have nothing to say. / will
answer no questions, so please don't
ask me any: | am out of politics"
Assumes the Impossible.
And this means, unless change
comes over the situation, that no mat
ter how he may be urged. Colonel
Roosevelt will play no part in the
coming campaign--he will neither en-
iorse Hughes, nor oppose him: he will
neither write nor speak in his sup
port.

latiOn that III man whose income re-
mains the same year after year win
deposit one-third his income each
month in savings bank that pays
four per cent, he will be able TO retire
at the end OF thirty-iye years, and
thereafter he or his heirs will receive
the full amount of his income.
IL he will steadily deposit one-quar-
ter OF his income In the same way he
will be able 10 retire ON full pay at
the end OF forty years.
\ NTH of his income saved and de-
posted in tins way, will enable him
TO stop work ON full income at the end
of forty-six years, while deposit OF
one-tenth of his income win retire him
at the end of the sixty years.
To be able TO retire on half income
as a result OF this kind of steady saw
ing is easier, This can be achieved In
twenty-four years by the deposit OF
one-third of the wages in savings
bank each month: in twenty-eight
years by the deposit of one-fourth OF
the wages; in thirty-two years by the
deposit Of one-tfth OF the income, and
forty-fiye years by the steady saving
OF one-tenth OF the wages
The nationwide campaign which the
American Bankers Association is coa-
Quoting encourages systematic saving
and wise spending of money through
the keeping Of a budget of private ex-
penses.

DISPLACEMENT OF HORSES BN
TRACTORS.

In investigating the value of trac-
tors from the farmers standpoint,
the specialists of the department OF
agriculture recently obtained from
over 400 owners of tractors in Him
ois. reports as to the number Of
horses that the tractors had enabled
them to do away with in farm work.
Briefly, the results OF these investi-
cations are as follows: To date, the
tractor has not displaced horses to
extent commonly expected by pur-
chasers, but its greatest advantage
lies in the fact that II does the heavy
work quickly and thus completes It
within the proper season, since It
places at the farmers command
large amount of power when needed.
To n certain extent the tractor does
dlsplaoe horses, but only in about
two thirds OF the cases where I, is
used on the same number of acres
previously farmed In these in
stances the horses displaced averag-
ed four and represented slightly less
than fifty per cent of the cost of the
tractor outfit. In the corn belt.
horses are seldom displaced on farms
where the average titled acreage per
horse Is 80 or more.
