more from his Fall sales.
A few weeks ago nine filters of
silver foxes were born in the Regina

record for foxes bred in captivity.
The owner says every pup of the thir-

School book presses of America were
charged with 'tricking the innocent

the National Education convention
here to-day.
Plea for a higher standard in text

fessor Searson.

fer a distinctive, constructive im-
provement over texts already in USE"
Professor Searson suggested sew
eral definite steps which he said
should be followed in making dis
tinctive text books which answer the
highest need of>the pupils, teachers
and the public" One suggestion was
that no manuscript, regardless of
merit, be published merely for the
sake of sales. Another proposed
that publishers locate and cultivate
text book authors with scholarship
and real vision. A third suggested
that the authors manuscript be tried
in schools before publication.

BLOODHOUNDS ARE FOOLED
BY ESCAPED CONVICTS

The Reno police department was
notified to look for two convicts who
made their escape this week from the
State ~penitentiary at Carson. The
two fugitives are supposed to be
headed hat way. Their tracks were
followed to the railroad and there
lost, says the Gazette.
The dogs used at the prison for
trailing fugitives r said to have
been fooled by a trick Of the prison
ers. The dogs usually are given the
scent from the blankets used by the
prisoners in the cells. In this in
stance the two prisoners exchanged
blankets with other inmates of the
institution and the hounds were baf-
fed loon after leaving the prison on
the trail. y
The fugitives are Charles Stringer
who was sentenced from Lander
County in 1917 to serve from ten to
twenty years. and John Esser. who
was sentenced from Clark County to
sere from one to fourteen years.

THE BIG TREES
IN CALIFORNIA

The biggest trees in the world are
found in California. They are of two
varieties, both a species of evergreen,
sequoia Tin honor of a Cherokee In
diam redwood and sequoia gigentia.
The former grows quite extensively
in certain sections on the western
slope of the coast range; the latter
only on the western slope of the Sier-
ra Nevada mountains, at an elevation
of about n mile above sea level.
The former is. said to reproduce it.
self from the stump, the other from
little seeds which grow in pods.
The best-known and most frequent
ly visited grove of the redwood Sc
quotas is near the little city of Santa
Cruz on the coast some seventy miles
south of San Francisco. Some of
these trees are more than $50 feet
high and 20 feet n'diameter at the
base. The gigentia. however, is the
real thing in big trees. Some are al
most 400 feet high and 80 feetaround
at the base. The bark is of a red
dish brown color, very thick and fiut-
ed up and down. The branches are
very large, beginning so feet or more
from the ground.
The secret of their age is still one
of the unexplained problems of the
universe. Estimates range all the
way from 1000 to 10000 years. But
suppose it is only the former. Think
of living a million and a half of days!
Think of the changes which have
been wrought in that time! That
they are the ~tallest. stateliest and
oldest living taings in all the big
world of ours is an undisputed fact.

WOOL AND CATTLE
SITUATION BETTER

wool growers may look for a
change in the wool market within the
next thirty to sixty days" said J.
Sheehan. y~ice-president Of the First
National Rank of Winnemucca. to a
Silver State reporter on Tuesday. II
believe the wool market will be bet
ter then and am advising sheep men
to keep wool stored at railroad points
in anticipation of better prices. In
several necessary cases wool has been
shipped to Boston on consignment,
buyers advancing fifteen cents a
pound and furnishing free storage for
four months. advise against this
practice unless growers keep control
of their wool and insist upon being
informed of market conditions SO they
may wire instructions to sell when
they deem the time opportune."
Mr.. Sheehan was reluctant to pre-
dict a possible future price for wool,
saying that 1t is impossible for any
to forecast accurately, but left an
impression he was not Of opinion
wool will return to its former high
price around sixty cents per pound.
He explained the drawbacks to the
Federal reserve bank scheme for sup
plying wool men with money to car
ry them over. Under the plan of the
reserve board, put forward as relief
for wool growers, an amount of mon
ey similar to the fifteen cents ad-
vanced by wool buyers on consign-
ment shipments, may be obtained
from Federal reserve banks provided
the banks are willing to endorse the
paper. But these loans are only for
ninety days, at the end of which time
they are due and payable and might
leave the wool men in worse condi-
ton than eve in attempting to meet
their Indebtedness. Therefore banks
In this section are handling the wool
growers debts locally.
Merchants of Winnemucca seem to
be averse to wool men shipping on
consignment for various reasons and
are urging owners to hang on for a
time longer, In some cases offering to
carry" them to the extent of their
ability.
A survey of opinion on the wool
and livestock prospects seems to be
encouraging. Mr.. Sheehan said the
first shipment of sheep will be made
from Jungo on July 10, and from then
until the goth shipments from var
ious points in this vicinity will be fire.

dollars per hundred pounds. This
price is similar to that obtaining last
year and will act sheep men between
So and 81 for lambs.
1t is too early for cattle sales, Mr..
Sheehan said. and he does not expect
any beef movements until September,
which is usual in this section.

the Bankers Trust Company says,
raise the total by March 81, 1921,
to approximately f1,8S6, 900 900
(roughly $9,0O0,000, 000).
THE chancellor of the exchequer.
in his recent budget speech, estimat-
ed the advances to the allies as prob
ably realizable at about so per cent
of their face value. This would af-
ford an Offset of about 81, 200, 00e,-
900 (roundly $5,000,0 900 .0OO) against
Great Britain's gross debt"
Should this amount be realizable,
the Bankers Trust Company esti-
mates that the British national debt
maya be placed at $1,000, 600, 900
(about $4,000, 600, OOO). 1t would
then stand in the proportion of 80
per cent of the national wealth, which
is estimated at about ~ 1000, 0O0,-
900 (some $500. 900 900 .OOO). This
is about the same ratio of debt to
British national wealth which pre-
vailed at the end of the Napoleonic
wars in 1917. 1t indicates that Great
Britain ID not confronted to-day with
a greater burden than has been met
on other occasions.

THE LIBERTY BELL

This bell, the most treasured relic
in the nation, was cast by a London
bell founder. brought to America in

old State house IN Philadelphia. 1t
weighs about 1000 pounds.
1t was cracked by a stroke of its
clapper while being tested and was
.re-cast in Philadelphia in 1853.
Again 1t proved defective and again
it was re-cast. The words Proclaim
Liberty Throughout All the Land
Unto All the Inhabitants Thereof"
are inscribed upon it.
Before the British occupied Phila-
delphia 1t was taken down and hid in
the Delaware river, being removed
later and returned to its former po-
sition.
1t fulfilled the prophecy of its in

Democratic Nominee Long
Experienced In Public Life
Served Three Terms in Congress and Three Times
Elected Governor of Ohio

I Governor Cox displayed his ability as
a leader of his constituency in meet
ing the situation. This same leader
ship was carried on during the period
of the war and has since come through
the reconstruction, with all its at
tendant disorders, with domestic
peace and without at any time resort
ing to force.
STARTS AS TEACHER
James Middleton Cox started his
active career as a school teacher in
district No. / In Wayne township,
Butler County. where he had earlier
attended school. His evenings were
spent in the printing offices of the 10
cal publications and a few years later
he was accepted as a reporter on the
stan of the Cincinnati Enquirer. The
next ten years we're devoted to active
newspaper work in almost every ca
pacity of that newspaper.
He is next heard Of as private sec
rotary to Congressman Paul Sorg of
the Third Ohio district and at the
close of his service in Washington he
purchased the Dayton, Ohio. Daily
News, borrowing most of the money
with which to carry on the business
of the paper. which at the time had
a very small circulation.
Mr.. Cox put all his energies into
making the publication a successful
business venture and so well did he
carry out his plans that he was soon
owner also of the Springfield Daily
News. which to-day stands as one of
the newspaper successes of the coun-
try.
In 1908 he was nominated and
elected to Congress from the third
Ohio district and was reelected for
a second and third term.
In public life, Governor Cox was
always regarded as a progressive and
many of the laws now on the statute
books of his home State which bear
this progressive trend were sponsored
by him, both as congressman and gov
ernor.
Among these laws for which the
governor assumes responsibility are:
A model workman's compensation
act; a child labor law that has been
copied by several other States; a
mothers pension system; the initia-
tive and referendum; a scientific bud
get; a prison farm providing healthy
occupation for convicts; elimination
Of s~weatshops; a blue-sky law to
protect Ohio investors; consolidation
of useless bureaus; time limit on
storage of food products and to check
profiteering; extension of a good roads
system by main market and inter
county roads.
SCHOOL CODE A MONUMENT
School men in Ohio are quoted as
saying hat the Ohio school code of
to-day will live as an everlasting
monument to the achievements of
Governor Cox.
Governor Cox recently purchased
the farm near Jacksonburg upon
which he was born and is transform
ing 1t into a modern farm where he
expects to spend his later days. He
has a comfortable, modern suburban
home at Dayton. which he designed
and where he resides when not in the
State capitol attending to his official
duties.
Governor Cox has four children,
two boys and two girls.
