farmer will be the power, the m

ITO get ell there is to be gotten out
of rural life. the farmer must Keep IN
close touch with the world, should
know and understand what is going
on in the world, should understand the
conventions and organizations of the
social, commercial and industrial
world. should not isolate himself and
become narrow, full OF prejudices and
unintelligent conceits as those VINO
live too closely by themselves are apt
TO become.
Farmers must not allow any dema-
gogue who promises everything, but
has never performed anything to in
fluence them and guide them into all
sorts of clausible but impractical re-
forms which are impossible of fulfil
ment and lead nowhere. Trust should
rest with those who have demonstrate
ed ability and honesty. Votes and in
fuence should not be traded off for
promises. Remembeg promises are
for something TO be delivered in the

Crystal Lake, III.

1
The following from the Crystal
Lake Qn.,) Herald of April 5 will be
of interest to residents OF Benning'
ton:
The sudden death of Lewis NJ.
Gates, who was taken seriously Ill
with pneumonia last Wednesday neon
and passed away at II O'Clock Thurs
day night, was distinct shock TO the
residents of Crystal Lake, many OF
whom had hardly learned of his il
ness before news reached them that
he had succumbed TO the treacheroLs
disease which so quickly laid him low.
Lewis NJ Gates was born in Ben
nington, VT, On Oct. 10, 1912. He

Crystal Lake. where he continued his
work as hotel proprietor, first renting
the Richmond hotel, and two or three
years later purchasing what is now
known as the Gates House.
"A just and upright man, Mr.. Gates
won the confidence and high regard
not only of the travelling public, but OF
the people of this community, and his
genial personality impressed all with
whom he came in contact with che
rare qualities Of heart and mind that
made for him a place of real affec-
ton in that circle of congenial people
who knew him best
Through long years of service and
varied experiences in a work that
necessarily brought him in contact
with many people and many classes,
he was widely known and his high
qualities much appreciated by host
of good friends who loved him for the
fine manhood he exemplified
Two brothers, Charles H. Gates of
Mohall, South Dakota, and Henry S.
Gates of Chicago, several nieces and
nephews and other relatives are left
to mourn his departure.

GREAT PROSPERITY
Next Few Years Great Chance for
Small Farmers.

Small Farmers.
Washington, d. c., April 11.-An era
| of the greatest prosperity ever known
| to the United States and which will be
shared by all was predicted by Theo
| dore n. Vail here tonight before spe
| cial meeting of the National Agricul
tural society. Mr. Vail based his view
on the statement that the small but
productive farm and the small but
prosperous farmer. soon TO be d ,mi-
nant in agriculture will bring about
this prosperous state
The abundance of homes as a source
of great national strength and a no.
ticeable trend today toward country
life and country pursuits were pointed
cut by Mr. Vail. He also stated that
agriculture now offers probably the
greatest opportunity for individual
success of all the countrys industries
and all the farmers will be the future
power in the land
IN part Mr.. Vail said THE
strength of nation is in its abun-
dance of homes, homes though of
small size of abundance of comforts
and plenty of all that is essential. We
are on the threshold of such an era.
Country life and country pursuits
have become more attractive and
more profitable. Opportunities for
moderate, but sufficient success are as
great in rural pursuits as in the great
oenters OF industry, while the COM
forts and even luXuries that are now
available in the country put it on a
par with turban life, If not superior.
The rural home, with its diversified
production, will be restored. The

It will be one of the most signih-

when the worlds greatest powers will

and make arrangements possibly for

Palestine is the Jews goal, where the
Jews Of the world can reconvene and
live under their own rule perhaps
with the guidance and guardianship
of the world powers.
Twelve million Jews are scattered
over the globe, 6.500.000 in Russia.
100000 in the United States and
only 100000 in Palestine. The Jew
in Russia. Rumania. Galicia and Tur-
key still lives apart unable, in fact
not perm tied, to assimilate as his
brothers have done in this country.
In Russia. the Jews have been de-
MED full political and civil rights and
have been economically oppressed uE-
der the old regime, and even under
the new order they cannot enjoy all
the liberties and privileges of their
Christian fellow citizens
