STRANGE VOLCANO.

A geological map Of Iceland by Doctor
T0hrodsen, who has spent many years
on the work, gives much information
about one of the worlds most wonder
full islands, which few visitors ever see.
An example of the strangeness Of Ice
land is furnished by the volcano Katla.
This is buried under immense snow
fields, but from time to time its fires
burst through the glitterlng blankets.
and then such floods are poured from
the melting ice that great stretch Of
country between the volcano and the
sea is inundated and huge masses Of
Ice are carried out into the ocean.

COOPERATIVE Farm Marketing

The passage by the senate of the house bill for
cooperative farm marketing legal barrier that
detrimental to the public interests well to
those of the farmer. 1t desirable upon the broad
grounds of national policy that the farmer, well as
all other producers, should receive liberal return for
his service to the community 1t desirable, also that
the consumer shall have constant supply of the things
the farmer produces at prices low the costs of
production and distribution will permit.
The interests of the carriers and of the distributors
secondary those of the producers and the
ers. 1t is right that they shall be paid fair reward
for their service, but the of that service ought to
be reduced the lowest possible amount. And parti
euarly there ought to be- in the system of trans
portston and distribution, any opportunity for any
reduce the price to the producer to raise the price
to the except fair charge for necessary
service rendered.
Cooperative marketing tends TO protect the interests
both the producer and of the and it also
works against the specuator and the profeer. This
not theoretical statement but its truth is atested by
the history of cooperative marketing Now that
gress has removed the barriers of federal law this plan
will be greatly extended and the results will unquestior
ably be for the public benefit

Foreign Trade and Home Trade

The United States has at the present time the
greatest power of production and the greatest capacity
for consumption in all the world. All the imports that
can be brought into United States all the exports
that be out of the United States to foreign
lands, small in comparison with the tremendous
volume and value of things that made in the United
States and sold and consumed in the United States.
1t ought therefore TO be evident to that the
industrial policy of this nation should have its main
foundation domestic production and domestic consump-
on So far as is possible the things that needed
in the United States to eat to and to should
he grown or made in the United States; and far
United State. should be eaten used in the
United States.
To much greater degree than Is common among
the nations the United States is sufficient 1t has
the variety of soil and climate, and the variety and
volume of vegetable and mineral and other resources
sufficient for the needs of its people 1t true that there
are some things that civilized desire and need that the
United States does not produce in sufficient quantity,
and it is also true that there things that
produced the United States in greater amount than
the needs of its people require But this requirement of
imports and this for export very small in
comparison with the huge bulk of domestic production and
consumption, and they would be allowed to deter
mine national industrial financial policy.
To the persons actively engaged in foreign trade,
however, no other interests quite important
their own They would like to exports greatly in
creased imports greatly increased also regardless
of the fact that will be much better for the American
nation if the American producer and the American
sumer deal directly with each other
There is no market in the world so well worth having
the American market There is source of produc-
ton in the world equal to that of the American mines
farms and factories.

Canal and Transcontinental Railroads

The attention of the Chieftain has been directed to
the Panama canal factor in the railroad problem,
especially it the western transcontinental
lines.
1t is undoubtedly true that vast volume of freight
that used to be carried by the railroads the western
plains and thu the Rocky mountains goes by ship
thru the Panama canal This freight originates only
Atlantic seapors but in the Mississippi valley and the
railroad haul is either greatly shortened eliminated
altogether.
1t is not reasonable to advocate that this trans
