Prosperity-with Postscript

Perhaps, as a number Of well known
business men have stated to the Pub
lie Ledger, the climax Of our prosper
ity, so far as it depends upon the
exports Of war munitions, has passed.
Yet the figures which have been OBJ
tanned with great care from trust
worthy sources reveal source Of
profit to which there has hitherto been
no parallel. The actual shipment OF
munitions to date amounts to S446,-
100000. tidy sum in itself. But this
does not take account Of the export
Of other articles for which the war
has stimulated the European demand.
such as blankets, shoes, rails, loco
motives and machinery. 1t is esti-
mated that these would bring the total
up to no less than S3,O0O,O0O. The
Imagination can hardly grasp the
significance of such figures. 1t can
hardly be convinced even by the in
creasing list Of millionaires.
There have been many computations
Of the cost of the war, and the burden
Of taxation which the belligerent
countries have incurred has often been
pointed out. But the other side of
the shield is on the whole more inn
pressive.
Such stupendous achievement may
not be wholly a matter for congratu-
lation. 1t involves economic prob

even they would hardly deny the

built by the tariff. Is it not reason
able to assume that when this wal

to be undertaken? Whatever the
extent of the necessity, we should
have a government able to cops with

On the controry, as Mr.. du Pont
points out, it is already endeavoring
to put fresh burdens upon industry.
The shipping bill, the armorplate plant
and the nitric-acid plant are schemes
hostile to individual initiative. The
fact that fortunes are being made
now in certain industries should not
be allowed to obscure the even more
important fact that business depends
on permanent, not temporary condi-
tions.-Philadelphia Ledger.

sive Quantities. is Poisonous

Samples of salt are occasionally
sent to the Agricultural College for
analysis with the statement that ami
mails, usually cattle or sheep, were
poisoned after eating it in consider
able quantities. In no case has any
foreign substance that would account
for the poisoning been found.
Since salt is necessary to life and
is in universal use it is difficult to
realize that in large amounts it is
poisonous. Many cases of poisoning
in chickens have been reported and
occasionally in larger animals. In
one instance salt was by mistake used
instead Of sugar in making a cake
The cake was given TO the chickens
and killed all of them. Chickens are
very susceptible to salt poisoning and,
while the amount that it takes to kill
horse or COW is considerable, this
sometimes occurs when these animals
are especially salt hungry.
When animals have not had access
to salt for long time it is safer to
give it to them sparingly at first

Live Stock Education

One Of the most important items in
connection with successful stock farm
ing is the ability of the stock farmer
to recognize quality in his live stock.
One Of the features Of the next an
nual National Western Stock Show
which will be held in Denver COM
mencing January 10th will be the
Students Judging Contest in which
Judging teams from agricultural col
leges from all over the west will par
ticipate. This will be the opening fea-
ture of the show and is expected to
attract more than usual interest at
the next show because Of the fact
that q number of western colleges that
have not heretofore taken part in the
contests are preparing TO enter judg-
ing teams. Aside from the premiums
won, the contestants in these contests
secure some very valuable knowledge
+ regarding the quality of all kinds of
live stock. The contestants are re-
quired to place number Of animals
in each class according to their ideas
as to their individual merit and art
then required to give their reasons
for SO placing them. Stock men gen
orally are commencing to take con-
siderable interest in these judging
contests and they are Of great edu-
cational value.

ANNUAL POTATO SHOW
ONE CROP BURNS MORTGAGES
AT MONTE VISTA.
Farmers Union Association Holds
Spud Show and Members Publicly
Celebrate Freedom Of Debt.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Monte Vista, Colo.-The first annual
potato show given by the Farmers
Union Association OF the Monte Vista
district was held here The potato
crop in this section this year has been
far beyond anything ever known be
fore Yield and prices have been phe-
nomenal. The farmers arranged the
show to exchange ideas as to the most
successful methods used, as well as to
celebrate their success in the growing
of their crops. During the exhibition
a number of farmers publicly burned
the mortgages on their land, this
years crop having enabled them TO
pay off all Indebtedness.
Some of the yields reported by indi-
vidual farmers were painted on
streamers and posted in conspicuous
places at the potato show. For in
stance, William Macy and sons report
ed a gross return Of 3i23.l0 from one
measured acre. William Bowsher
cleared $4,000 from 100 acres
About $1,000 carloads Of potatoes
have been shipped already from Mon
tie Vista and Del Nortc stations. and
1000 cars remain awaiting transport
alton facilities. The potato growers
plan to build a $4,000 storage house
next summer to hold their crops in
case other years have car shortages
such as marked the present year.
