Then the other Snow shoe Rabbit
tried to persuade him and he again
shook his head.
Sammy Muskrat was perfectly dis
gusted. for he had to set back home
and build his new dock.
Peter tremblsd with frlsht, and the
Snow Shoe Rabbits whispered to SAM

big rabbits pounced on Peter and car
ried him struggling and ciawing to the
little board raft OF Sammy Muskrats.
It was funny sight and all the ut

cried.
Jimmie Coon and Teddy Pessum
stood on their hind legs with excits-
ment.
Just as the two big rabbits were go-
ing to put Peter on tht raft, he slip
ped out of their arms and fell with .
big splash into the pond! Myi then.
there was sputtering and clawing.

THE FIVE GALLON CROCK IN TINE CELLAR.

Another blow has fallen. Havner
says that nome brewing is Illegal and
that when his agents run across a five
gallon crock in the cellar busily stor-
ins up enthusiasm for the near future,
those agents will spill the soup. put
the industry on the bum and the cap
tain and buck privates of said indus
try where the dogs can't get at him.
At least that's what one gathers from
the announcements of the attorney
general.
That's gotng to disturb Cedar Rap
ids, where the Republican suggested
that so per cent of the cellars were
smelling of hops and yeast risin's; also
it is likely to create some annoyance
in other parts of the state. They say
that the basement brau actually has
the actual. before the war outcry in 1t

somewhat of the pleasing utilization to
the palate IL stands up to be counted
after it is once down and that a party

shortly after the keg is tapped. Later
on the symptoms are very similar to
those observed when the barkeep used
to draw it from the wood, serape off

and you said, "eat it then and beat
it quick, blank, blank and y ought to
seen him GO" In shor, it was a voice
from the past, touch Of a vanished
hand and the lift Of q kick that is still.
And here comes Havner. What did
George Washington and Abraham Lin
coin and Anheuser Busch and Grommes
and Ulrich fight for? Where's our con-
stitutional rights anyhow?
But there he stands, clothed with au-
thority, a fateful figure, Havner with
his state agents at his beck and call
one eye cooked at the cellar and the
other towards the Jail. And the crock
in the basement just getting to the
right state to bottle.
Life grows hard in these later years.

You never would have thought litlo
Peter Rabbit could be 80 stubborn.
Jimmie Coon knew him 30 well that he
knew Just what he was saying, even II
no wasn't there.
Teddy Possum knew, too. They knew
he wouldn't come back. on account of
the swimming.
None of tho other little animals
knew what was the matter. and they
thought that since he swan out to the
reef SO well, Of course he would swim
back; and they all waited to see him
and to praise him for his fine SWIM
ming.
But no one knew what Sammy Musk
rat had to do with II or why he STOP
ped building his dock and swan out
to the reef.
Everybody could see little, Peter
shake his head many times. Jimmie
Coon and Teddy Postum wore worried
for they wanted to see little Petor
safe on shore before they went off aft
err the other fresh eggs for Mr.. Red
Fox; for they knew Mr.. Red Fox
wouldn't wait very long. They knew
he would be after them to see what
was the matter.
One of the Snow Shoe Rabbits said
Now, Peter, you must start to swim.
We will go one on each side Of you
and you will be perfectly SAFE" Pet
er only shook his head and trembled.

that he has cheerfully taken his
burden of the war while huge war
profits we're made on food stuffs by
producers and middlemen and specu-
lators and that he awaits a readjust-
ment.
Prices of food stuffs have reached
an extreme limit. If they are to be
maintained it will be- by decreased
production and not by the boot strap
method. At present there is only one
reasonable and legitimate way Of in
creasing the consumption of beef and
that is by lowered prices.

BooTsTRAPs AND BEEF PRICES.

Wallaces' Farmer sends out re-
print of an article published in it's
edition Of this week on the beef cattle
situation. The article explains that
during the war we built up great
beef export trade because lack Of
shipping practically cut of the Aus
tralian and South American supply
and Great Britain's need Of ships in
duced her to take our beef at con-
siderably higher prices. This situa-
ton permitted us to export more beef
in proportion to our population than
for twenty years past. Now that
shipping has been released by the
close of the war, foreign countries are
turning again to the cheaper markets.
New shipping has, been added at a
rapid rate, etc.:
Our export trade in beef is. there
fore, practically at an end for a time,
and to this Is attributed the slump OF
three to four dollars per hundred in
beef cattle. Neither Great Britain nor
time They are taking freely our pork
products, first, because of their need
for fats, and, second, because our
pork products can be shipped much
easier and can be stored for consider
able lengths of time.
Is there hope for betterment Of beef
cattle prices in the very near future !;
or must the cattle now in the feed lots,
put in at high cost and fed on high
priced feed be marketed at heavy
| loss? We do not wish to seem pessi-
mistic, but we must confess that we
| have little hope for any pronounced
| Improvement in prices. 1t Is quite
| possible that well-fnished light steers
| may sell during the next two months
for better prices than they are selling
now, especially If there are not toe
| many marketed. But we will soon bt
getting the run Of grass cattle, which
| will surely have a pronounced effect
on prices.
| The remedy for this condition sug-
gested by Wal1aces' Farmer is a cam
paign to induce people to eat more
beef, thus keeping up or improving
prices"
Summing up the Farmer declares
that we are suffering from restricted
consumption and expanded produc.
ton.
All OF which IS true. The reason We
are suffering from restricted con.
sumption" however is a vital poin
for consideration. Restricted con
sumption Of beef is caused by the pric'

Henry Wales, who romances in Paris
for the Chicago Tribune, has heard
that We are to be asked &c take charge
of Constantinople and guard that re-
gion for the European peoples. It has
been said that we can do 1t with q
hundred thousand men and few mill
lions of money. Very well, but why
not use the 100,0 men and the few
millians Of money in our business OF
which we are going to have enough ?
Some say it will safeguard Roberts
college and a few missions-but is not
the price a high one to pay? And are
We willing to use the government to
carry on these missions of some Of the
churches? We do not know, no one
knows about anything at the present
time, but our guess Is that the Ameri-
can people do not want US to take such
large contracts. We have not all gone
over the idea that 1t is our business to
attend to the business Of the rest OF
the world. No dout the Europeans
who want to go about their own busi-
ness will beg US to do the police work
for them. But since when have we

THIS IS THE BIRTHDAY OF
John D. Rockefeller,
IS 1T YOURS7
JULY 8. 1889.

The modern Creosus is rarely sur
rounded by as many romantic stories
as was the great Capitalist" OF an
Client times Possibly a reason is be-
cause our modern muti-miliionatres
spend their fortunes in great chari-
ties rather than barbaric feasts, which
do more good but make less exciting
reading.
John d. Rockefeller was born IN
Tioga county. New York. but moved
with his family to Cleveland and
went to high school there. He be-
came a devoted church member. ano
he held a position as clerk-for the
large sum of SO week. His bio
grapher claims Rockefeller saved
81, 900 in short time. but neglects
to say whether he had any Other
form OF income than the salary from
his clerkship.
However, with the $1,000 saved and
and another $1,000 borrowed. John D.
went into business. When he was Y
years old and had been in business
some years, he invested in oil re-
| finery. From this beginning grew tn
Standard Oil Company which gradu
ally absorbed into itself all the oil
| business of the country and oecam
the first and the largest trust. 1t wa
bitterly attacked during the ant-trus
excitement.
Rockefeller himself, had other N
terests. In 1895. when he was near
ing his sixties, he retired as prooaDl
the richest man in this country. y
to 1910 he had given $25.coo.0oO Z
the University of Chicago, and man
millions to other charities.

BRUTALITY AND sooss' MONEY.

| The films or the alleged flBht De-
tween Dempsey and Willard can not
be shown in Ohio. The censor has
barred them as inhupan and utterly
brutal, which they are, of course, If
they are pictures Of the scene.
The descriptions of the fight" were
toned down. What took place there
was most essentially british. One
physically powerful man beat another,
and apparently helpless, horribly. II
done in anger and on the street instead
of for pay and the delectation Of mob
with british instincts spectators would
cry shame and an indictment might
follow. Rivers of blood, teeth knock
ed out an exhausted man staggering
about a narrow ring while his opponen,
beat him savagely without return in
order to win purse and title to Elk
hibition moaey later. That was what
occurred at Toiedo. Why should an Elk
hibition Of depravity like that be pre-
served, shown and celebrated?
The prize fighting game has ceased
to be a game. 1t is now simply sor-
did and usually crooked scheme for
getting boobs' money. There was a
time when it had the elements Of sport,
brutal, of course, but still sport Of its
kind. In the earlier days Of the p. R.
| in England it was a sport for the cor
inthians who bet their money and
played one prize fighter against an
other as Roman sports played gladia-
tors. The game was a game and at
least square. Later in the United
States when prize fights must be pull
ed off in secret the contestants fought
for their hackers. Later yet, when the
synidcated gamblers and promoters
managed to gain permits for boxing
exhibitions" prize fighting became a
play with loaded dice. The boobs'
money at the gate and the boob bet
ter's money at the ringside were and
are now the detectives.
Horse racing went the same way. 1t
had been a sport and a noble sport I'M
tiltu the gambling synidcates tok 1t
over and went looking for the boobs'
money. Then the fine old breeders
who reared and raced horses for the
pure love Of the sport fell away and
the thoroughbred became an annex tc
the wired roulette wheel and the fla,
games.
The so-called fight at Toledo was
Essentially a brutal exhibition placed
land performed for tho boobs' money
The films, If they were to be permit
ted exhibition, would appeal only t.
those who seek, and perhaps enjoy, ex
hibitions Of plain brutality. Their
seems to have been little skill display
ed except the knowledge how to hit
helpless man hard and the brut'
; strength to do it.
The films have no title to exhibition
They should be suppressed.
