EIGHTY THOUSAND TOURISTS.

I'm the front page of this issue we reprint an ar
~ tcle giving the numbers of tourists that visited
Yellowstone Park this last summer In round
numbers it amounts to eighty thousand The figures
are, 1911. And every year the tourist stream
increases. And every year the tourist seeks new
scenes. If we will only get ready for them there will
come eighty thousand tourists in season to see Zion
Canyon and the Cedar Breaks Just let that soak in
eighty thousand people. If each should leave only
dollar in Cedar, that would be eighty thousand dol
lars. The average will be nearer FIVE apiece Is &C.

WOOLGROWERS
NEED PROTECTION
Difference in Exchange Between
English and American
Coin is Reason.

The following letter from Hallowell.
Jones and Donald, Boston wool mer-
chants at 252 Summer Street, Boston,
covers the present wool situation and
needs the earnest attention of the
public:
October %, 1920.
Dear Sir: We feel that our con-
signors should be given full infor-
nation regarding the wool situation
today so that if they wish to take
this matter up with their Senators
and Congressman they will have au-
thentic facts at their disposal.
/. About 80 per cent of this years
clip is now owned by the growers,
either in their possession or held by
their commission agents.
2. Due to the war there is a sur
plus of about two billion pounds of
foreign wool in the worlds market
today.
3. Shearing has started in the
southern hemisphere which means
that over another billion pounds of
wool is shortly to be marketed.
al France, Germany, Belgium, It
ally, Russia and Austria formerly
large buyers of wool, are unable to
finance their purchases this year ex-
cept in a very limited way.
5. Owing to the difference in ex-
change between England and this
country, wool can be imported at 80
per cent less than the price would be
if exchange were normal. This
means that wool can be purchased at
35 cts in Australia which with ex-
change at normal would cost 80 cts.
6. Owing to the exchange and the
relative cheaper labor in Europe, tops,
yarns and cloth can be dumped into
this country from abroad at prices
below those at which they can be pro-
duced by our manufactured.
7. The United States will be made
the dumping ground for this vast
weight of foreign wool, also tops,
yarns and cloth, unless action is taken
by Congress to prevent it.
8. Congress meets early in Deem
Der and if any legislation is to be put
through to save the situation, action
should be taken at once.
This firm believes that wool has
dropped to a point where it would be
great injustice to the producer to
allow it to go lower. We feel that IT
it for the best interests Of the entire
country that an Unrestricted amount
of foreign wool and wooden goods is
not dumped into this country when
the present market value of wool av-
erages approximately pre-war prices
We urge you to consider these facts
carefully and to take such action with
your Senators and Congressman as
will protect your interests.
Yours very truly,
HALLOWELL, JONES G. DONALD

TAXES.

X AMY have asked why there is such gloom OF
lNlsadness over all the days of Autumn. Some
have laid it to the chilling winds and the fall
ing leaves, but there are more who will say it is due
to the threat of taxes. 1t is the time of parting from
favorite horses pet cows prize porkers or even the
more fondly cherished hundred-dollar bills All to
satisfy the ever growing bill for taxes. They sadden
the souls of the poor and break the hearts of the
rich Every administration goes in with promise to
reduce taxes, only to be turned out in time by OPP
ponents who have won on the same promise. AND
all the while the tax bills grow 1t would not do OF
corse, but there is certain fascination in the wicked
speculation as TO what might happen if universal
strike were declared in the matter of digging up
the taxes

When the corn is dry, store in closely
woven muslin bags or heavy paper
bags. Tie tightly at the neck and
place within large bag, which also
should be tightly tied.
Do not allow the drying process 10

the corn is fairly dry. Corn is a
product which contains considerable
sugar and protein, and If the drying

Is interrupted by cloudy weather IN

HOPE FOR SHEEP AND CATTLE
THE ORGANIZATION last wee

HE ORGANIZATION last week in Chicago Of
l. thirty million dollar corporation to loan mon
ey to stockmen who would otherwise be forced
to sell young stuff at sacrifice is the first actual
come to an end. The only injustice comes where
certain commodities are made victims of the down
ward movement by market nlanpulators Wool and
cattle lacking the protection of great financial con-
nectons enjoyed by other industries were made such
victims Had all prices come down at like ratio,
sheepmen and cattlemen could have weathered the
storm without disaster. But the sudden slump com
ing without warning, and hitting only the two pro-
ducts, was real calamity. The government should
have relieved the situation as in pre-war days it re-
lieved the plight of the Southern cotton growers 1t
is good to note at last that some sort of help is in
sight.
