The radical labor organizations see in

by inducing farmers to join item

Strenuous efforts made by govern
ment agents and district attorneys thru
out the country have, thus Ear, served
to reduce prices the producer of farm
products receives for his crops, but
have failed of further purpose, since
the cost Of these things to the consumer
remains about the same as before the
activity mentioned began. Hogs and
cattle have declined about SO per cent
of their early summer prices, but lard,
salt meat, breakfast bacon and hams
cost the consumer about the same they
did when hogs were high, while the
public pays about as much for its steaks
aud roast as any time during the year.
The net result has been that the farm
er gets less for hogs and cattle and the
packers and retailers get mere out of
handling them and the public goes right
ahead paying the same high prices paid
when the farmer got better prices for
animals.

MAY MEAN MUCH TO WORLD
Aviators Believe That Flying Is Bound
to Have Great Influence on the
Minds of Men.

Flying, in the opinion Of British
aviators, is going to change the char
acter of the worlds thought. 1t will
have a broadening influence and it
will bring a fresher, cleaner flow of
ideas into the brains Of men.
A man, the flyers argue, who has
seen before him at the same time the
cliffs of England, the long fiat fields of
Holland and the smiling countryside
of Belslum and France is bound to
think in different way than a man
whose horizon has always been bound
eG by bricks and mortar, or even by
hill and dale.
Travelling may have made him think
nationally, but flying will make him
think far more largely. He will see
England and France lying close to
each other, separated only by shin
ing strip of water He will see the
green and brown mosaic of Belgium,
which in its turn merges into the dis
tant shadow of Holland, while, still
farther on, across the wide Scheldt
he will see the distant lowlands sweep
on over the rim of the world.
How will he regard petty spites be-
tween individuals and cliques then?
the birdman asks. He can cover with
his thumb from the heights fever
ish city swarming with a million peo-
ple. What will he think of those who
live next to each other and will not
speak? How mean and petty their
quarrels and jealousies and hates will
seem.
The true meaning of human inter-
course and friendship will come home
80 him. He will gain an almost divine
outlook upon the world. Dishonesty,
civil strife, all will seem to him
contemplate. Perhaps, say the avia-
tors, this is the new view which will
bring the millennium.
