A Rockefeller View

Further evidence of the nations prosperity is shown in a dispatch from Denver giving an interview with Will liam Rockefeller, who had just re- turned from the Pacific coast over the Union Pacific, after an inspection of the Milwaukee Railway system. Mir Rockefeller was accompanied by President A. J. Earling of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul. MT. Earling said:
 'We found things in splendid shape everywhere in the West. Prosperity is not going to end with the war in Europe. Our factories will be just as busy after the war as much American material in rebuilding as it is using now in the work of destruction.
 Mir. Rockefeller became so interest ed that he forgot his refusal to be in terviewed, and interposed:
 ''The demand for manufactured and agricultural products is so great that it cannot we'll be otherwise. The de- vastation in Europe is so great that when peace is finally declared those countries must of necessity continue to purchase from the United States for many years. It will be long period of rehabilitation, and the business probably will greatly exceed that ere ated by war orders"

SENATOR REED CITES PROSPERITY RECORD
 IN NOTABLE SPEECH

Senator Reed of Missouri, on Au- gust 28, in a remarkable address to the United States senate, reviewed the deeds of the Wilson administration. He told the whole story in masterly way. The speech covered 41 months of the Democratic administration.
 Of the "unexampled prosperity of the country Senator Reed stated:
 ''Mr. Hughes declares we are living in Fools Paradise. now invite you to explore that delightful country"
 'In Wilson's first three years," he asserted, ''bank deposits have in creased nearly $6,OOO,OOO, 900 and have reached the stupendous sum of more than S26,OOO,OOO,OOO. Bank resources have increased nearly S7,750,OOO,000.
 '1n Roosevelt's four years bank de- posits increased 15 per cent; in Taft's four years, 15 per cent; in Wilson's three and a quarter years, 85 per cent.
 Gold Imports Increase
 During Taft's administration ex- ports of gold exceeded imports to the extent of S41,OS7,1O6.
 During Wilson's administration i'm ports of gold exceeded exports to the extent of nearly $386,OOO,OOO.
 "While we are creating wealth at a rate never before equaled by any peo- pie, the European countries are ex- pending 100000 a day in the de vastating work of war"
 After recounting the increased earn ings of railroads, of the postofice re- partment, our manufacturing and in dustrial prosperity and the increased wages of labor, Senator Reed con- tinued:
 "Such is the wonderful prosperity our great country enjoys. Such is the smiling picture which Candidate Hughes characterizes as "a fools para disc
 By what phrase would we have de- scribed conditions had they unhappily been reversed? Would not the man who is now curling his lip at the coun- try's prosperity, refusing his great an- tagonist any modicum of credit, and sneeringly exclaimed "a fools para dise,' have then charged disaster to the president and bitterly acclaimed of Democratic bread lines 'and Wilson soup houses?'
 Plainly, when the justice doffed his ermine he likewise cast aside the judi cial temperament.
 "When he plunged into the stream of politics he abandoned his honorable robes on the bench.
 "When he forsook the society of the justices of the supreme court and ex- changed the precepts of Blackstone, Coke and Marshal for the companion ship and counsel of Flynn and Wilcox, Perkins and Schwab, Gary and Gug- genheim ct al., he prepared to play the political game in all it's baser 
 Labor Is Content
 "Well, perhaps we do dwell in a fools paradise But the laboring man who, jobless and empty stomached, groped in the desert of Republican hard times during the Roosevelt panic and the Taft stringency' is now quite content to enter that fools para disc in which he can at once fill a job and fill his stomach"

GOOD HINTS ON STRAWBERRY
Most Profitable Varieties are Those
Not Influenced by Differences in
Soil and Climate.

Professor Lazenby gives the follow
ing summary of essential points to be
kept in mind:
The most profitable varieties for the
commercial grower are those not cas-
lily Influenced by differences of soil
and climate. Those which succeed
we'll on wide areas are usually better
than those which have mere local
reputation.
Pistillate varieties when properly
fertilized are more productive than
the sorts with perfect flowers.
The value of variety for fertilizing
pistillate flowers does not depend so
much upon the amount as upon the
potency Of the pollen.
The flowers of pistillate varieties
are less Liable to be injured by frost
than the flowers of perfect varieties.
r Varieties that are neither very ear
ly nor very late in point of maturity

The Natural Pride of Those Who
Take Part in 1t.

TO those who have built railroads
through and across the prairies of
Western Canada, connecting that great
empire of grain and cattle, horse and
sheep with the worlds markets in the
east, must be awarded the privilege
Of looking upon their work, and its
results with pardonable pride. If they
Renaissance, and tell of the hardships
and the privations, why shouldn't
they? The broad prairies on which
the buffalo roamed and fed, are now
alive with cities, towns and villages.
Farms-large and small-on which
machinery has chased the bugaboo Of
laborious work off the farm, anG max
ing farm life one Of the most pleasant
and prosperous Of occupations-are
being cultivated by men of the highest
stamp of manhood Many of these
have inherited from their forebears
the physical strength and the high
type of manliness that was theirs in
the days when they hewed their homes
out of the virgin forest, and made
them what may be seen today, beau
tiful farms in the east. On the whole
the western prairies breed high type
Of manhood, wrest from him faults
and diseases which would be his were
it not for the upbuilding influence and
character of prairie life.
When the builder of the western Ca
madam prairie looks upon the result OF
his work, why shouldn't his chest ex-
pand? 1t was probably some Of this
feeling of pride that took possession
Of Sir Donald Mann, vice president OF
the Canadian Northern Railway the
other day in Winnipeg, when he said:
81 am not in the habit of giving ad-
vice, but / have no hesitation Of advis-
ing the young men of Canada, every
young man, to get out and get a piece
of western Canada's land that now

time there were less than 10000
people west of Lake Huron in Canada.

HOW TO MAKE GRATING WAX
Rosin, BeesWax and TaIIoW Are Nee.
essary Three ngredients-ShouId
Be Melted Slowly.

There are three ingredients in the
best grating wax for use in outdoor
work: rosin, beeswax and tallow. The
proportions (by weight) are rosin four
parts, beeswax two parts, tallow one
part; in all, seven ounces or pounds.
They are to be melted slowly, in an
iron vessel, putting in the rosin ten
minutes OK SO before the beeswax and
tallow. Then all well mixed together
by much and careful stirring.
When thoroughly mixed Tin twenty
or thirty minutes) a convenient pOr-
ton is poured into bucket containing
cold water. In a short time-rather
less than a minute--it will be cool
enough to be lifted out by the hands
and pulled like taffy. The hands, of
course, must have been creased with
tallow, to prevent sticking. When it
becomes light yellow by pulling it is
ready to be made into short rolls, three
or four inches long and an inch thick,
and placed in another vessel of cold
water, to harden.
Additional portions of the melted
wax can be put through the same
operation until all is used up. The
sticks, when sufficiently hardened, can
be put away until required in grating.
This wax will not crack on the gratis,
nor will it melt and run down in the
hot sunshine. In using it, If the
weather is cool, it will need to lie in
water that is moderately warm. In
warm weather, cool water may be
necessary. In lifting it out of the wa
ter it will be best to shake off as much
OF the moisture as possible.

Caused Disease of the Kidneys

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
well known nowadays. AS soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial tension
is increased and the heart functions
are attacked. When the kidneys no
longer pour forth waste, uremic poi
soning occurs, and the person dies and
the cause is often given as heart dis
ease, or disease of brain or lungs.

BEST SOIL FOR BUSH FRUITS
Prepare Holes Large Enough in Plant
ing That Roots May Spread Out
Without Cramping.

Have the soil deeply plowed or
spaded and prepare it as soon as the
plants are ordered. Have the holes
large enough so the roots may be
well spread out without any craLaping
or twisting,
If there should be any delay be-
tween time of receiving plants and
putting them odt, bury the roots in
moist soil--the heeling-in process.
Remember that If these bushes and
plants are to make any returns the
ground must be kept well cultivated
and moist and fertilized, and the
bushes themselves be yearly pruned;
after the first year this pruning should
be rather severe.
