OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUNG MEN.

Years ago ambitious young men could stake out
claim the public lands and in few years have goot
farm. Today good farm land commands high prices
Manufacturing business is so concentrated that man
needs influence and capital. Competition is fierce among
small retail stores and unless man is natural born
trader it is not promising field.
Yet many conditions favorable. One of these is
the fact that boys and young get all the work
they during school vacations and Immediately after
leaving school. Wages also have increased common
rate of wages for erand boys office boys and odd ob
boys in factories and stores formerly so cents day.
Very few boys have been working the past at
any such figure as that.
With the present demand for labor great many boys
should be able to money and little nest egg
1t much the amount of it the fact that they
have acquired the saving habit Many boys of course
have to contribute to family support If their parents
need the help to maintain good standard of family
fort the children should give it cheerfuly. No money
return they make begin to pay what has been
given them.
AT present prices of farm and factory work. the boy
who quits school with little bank account should be able
to add to it steadily There will be few times when he
will have to loaf He would better be careful how he
risks that capital in uncertain ventures.
But he can always be that land is good invest

TOWN LOYALTY.

"A tremendous improvement has been made in school
life during recent years by cultvatng what is called
school spirit You didn't hear much about it in the school
OF 70 years ago But in the thoroughly modern school,
you hear the idea constantly emphasized
The pupils brought up to see that they are not
merely individual and scattered units, but are working
toward certain ends that they all have in common If
they want their ball team to succeed they can't do it
merely by remaining indifferent standing off and crti-
elslng In the same way the pupils taught to back
up Whatever enterprise the school starts They learn that
the school is to have good reputation and get the
facilities it needs the pupils must consider not their own
pleasure alone but must work and study for the benefit
Of the school whole.
When that spirit is promoted, school acquires wide
reputation 1t is successful both in athletics and scholar
snip Now the question rises why can't this idea be ap-
ped to town life? These boys and girls that have been
Taught to stand by their school and its enterprises why
should not they come out and apply the idea to standing
by town enterprises?
The first element in town spirit is supporting all our
nome enterprises One phase of that not regarded by all
as 1t should be- standing by the home stores When
man starts retail business in town. he adds to it's ia
entities for comfortable living 1t is for everyones adj
vantage to have him succeed
But ne can't unless give him the preference over
te merchants of other cities town in which the spirit
OF home loyalty prevails always has the air of prosperity
II Is always growing and always it appears little better
gher and more prosperous than its actual census fig

Amsterdam, Oct. 8.-A dispatch
received here from Vienna describes
an imposing peace demonstration
which was held by the Christian So

Thousands Of persons were present.
Prince Alois Lichtenstein, presi-
dent Of the lower Austrian diet, op-
ened the proceedings by announcing
that the meeting had been convened
out Of gratitude to the pope and the
emperor to demand peace by agree
ment and general disarmament and
arbitration as outlined in the recent
speech of Count Czernin. the Austro-
Hungarian foreign minister.
We offer our hand for an honest
peace" said Prince Lichtenstein
'but~ff 1t is rejected we shall seize
the sword, which. as hitherto, with
Gods help, will decide in our favor"
Councillor Kunschook followed
with an eloquent speech in the same
tenor and was frequently applauded.

cillor. ito declare how warm and

SAVE FEED BY
USING THE SILO

The silo offers the best means Of
conserving the farm feed supply. It
enables the farmer to save the feed
stuffs for the future use of his farm
animals in much the same manner
that the canning machine enables the
housewife to save the vegetables and
fruits for the future use of the fam
lily. The present and prospective high
prices and the growing demand for
farm products Of all kinds make 1t at
once to the profit and the duty Of
farmers to increase IN every way the
efficiency Of their operations. To the
dairy farmer, at least, the silo Is es-
sential to efficiency. It's advantages
are too numerous to fully enumela'a
here. Suffice II to say thst expert
msnta have proved thnt Eilage will
greatly reduce the cost cf feed for
dcty cows and increase the milk pro-
duction. It is paleiahle feed, keeps
the stock IN q thrifty condition, and
the young stock growing al winter.
It is more conveniently fed ttan hay
or corn fodder. Silage enables one to
keep a larger number of live stock on
q given area OF land thsn may be
kept on forage crops cut f. hay. It
furnishes succulent feed i,ring the
summer when drouths frc, emily oc-
car. It prevents the waa' OF corn
coos, stalks and overripe t-tder that
would otherwise not be eaton by the
animals.
