Central Japan Prosperous.

The people Of central Japan. where
some Of the principal agricultural dis
tricts are located, appear prosperous
and contented and crop prospects are
favorable, due to the fact that the
farmers had money with which to buy
fertilizers and have given their crops
excellent care.
Rice, millet and vegetable crops are
In splendid condition, while the silk
crop is the best in years. Fine, large
cocoons are the result of well fertilized
n,ulberries and favorable weather. It
is believed that American silk manu-
facturers would do wen to lay In a
supply of the better grades.

AZ That, Il Must Be Admitted He Got
Out Of Tight Situation Rather
Neatly.


He was the picture Of sedate middle
age, from the broad-toed shoes to ths
pincenez suspended by broad black
ribbon.
He gazed long and longingly at the
portrait Of a maiden In rather skimpy
attire which adorned the lobby Of .
theater.
He entered the lobby.
He came out again.
He was met by an equally sedate
middle-aged woman.
"What are you doing in thereT" she
demanded.
"Why. my dear. I thought 1t was the
entrance to the bird store, but hurried
out as soon as I discovered my mis-
take" was his rather halting reply.
As they started away. the man drew
something from his pocket ana
dropped 1t surreptitiously to the side
walk.
A newsboy quickly picked 1t up.
"Gee," he muttered, "a orchestry

CANADA BIG WINNER
Captures Many Prizes at Lead
ing American Fairs.
Remarkable Showing Made 1t tntsrna.
tIeaai Live steek show at CHI
ease-carrisd on swsspstakss
Fer All Wheat

: Something that lends emphasis to,
and affords definite proof Of, the gen.
erosity of the soil and climate Of
western Canada, 10 shown By the
numerous exhibits made by both the
government and Individual farmers
and stock raisers Of that country, at
many Of the leading state and county
fairs in the United States this season.
Particularly is this the case with re.
gard to exhibits made at the Inter
national Live Stock Show recently
held at Chicago.
First and foremost to the average
farmer will appeal the fact that
Canada carried OF the sweepstakes
for all wheat. and that out OF total
Of twenty-five prizes, Canada took
twenty. In oats the Grand Champion
ship was won by a farmer living in
the Province Of Alberta. Canada also
was awarded the championship for
Durum wheat, while for Flint Corn out
Of total Of ten prizes, Canada took
frst, second, third. sixth and seventh.
Not only in grains did Canada prove
her right to rank as first class agri-
cultural country, but she carried on
many prizes for cattle, horses, sheep
and hogs, partial list Of which fol-
lows:
Cattle, Canada was awarded the
championship for Grade Shorthorns.
also in the College Special class, Can
ada gained first, fourth and sixth
prizes.
Horses, Grand Championship for
Clydesdale stallion, also Grand Cham
pionship for American bred mare, as
we'll as first for three-year-old Clydes-
dale stallion. first for one-year-old
Clydesdale stallion, and second for
the aged class.
In the Belgian class. Canada OBJ
tanned first and reserve for Champion
ship Belgians, as well as second for
Aged stallion.
Sheep. Canada obtained Champion.
ship for block, male and female, in ad-
dition to first prize in all group
prizes.
Hogs, in the Yorkshire class Canada
was very prominent, taking the Cham
pionship for pen Of Yorkshires, and
Championship for best single barrow.
as well as over twenty first, second
and third prizes in other classes Of
Yorkshires.
With regard to the live stock shown
1t must be borne In mind that these
have not been fed on corn, on which
the average western farmer places his
reliance, but on the wonderful oats
and barley grown in western Canada,
supplemented by the native grasses,
of which most artistic display was
made by our neighbors to the north.
Canada has conclusively proved that
not only can she take prizes for the
grain she raises, but can also take
prizes with the animals to which
these grains have been fed. and this
in open competition with the world.

Payments to Roads Handicap.
II cannot overemphasize the neces-
stty of economy in government ap-
propriations and expenditures and
the avoidance by the Congress of
practices which take money from the
treasury by indefinite or revolving
fund appropriations.
"The estimates for the present year
show that over q billion dollars of
expenditures were authorised by the
last Congress in addition to the
amounts shown in the usual compiled
statements of appropriations. This
strikingly illustrates the importance
of making direct and specific appro-
priations.
1.-THE relation between the current
receipts and current expenditures Of
the government during the present
fiscal year, rs we'll as during the last
half Of the last fiscal year. has been
disturbed by the extraordinary bur-
dens thrown upon the treasury by
the transportation act, in connection
With the return of the railroads to
private control. Over 100000, 900
has already been paid to the rail-
roads under this act-$3S0,0 900, 900
during the present fiscal year-and

aggregating possibly 3sso.o00, 900
