Wellesley Hills, Mass, July 90
When interviewing Roger w. Bah
son regarding the railroad and coal
strikes, Mr.. Babson did not seemed
surprised with recent Developments,
He believes that things are working
out in natural way and all inter
ests are DOING the best they can
with bad situation. What seems to
interest Mr.. Babson most is the pos
sible effect on prices in general fol-
lowing the strike settlements. Dis
cussing this possibility he says: =.
'The strikes while in progress ma
turally put general danper, ON
business. They have disheartening
effect on producers, jobbers and re-
tailers. Wage workers have less to
spend and manufacturers are less
interested in pushing their bushes.
All Of this tends to hold up trade
in general. Yet during this period
of strikes, people are living, eating
and dressing just as if no strikes
existed. Houses are deteriorating
young folks are getting married,
children are being born, clothes are
wearing out, and merchandise In
general is being consumed. If de-
terioration and consumption were
suspended during the depression Of
labor strikes, then strikes might be
good for the country at times Tn
fortunately, however, the deteriora-
ton and consumption goes on even
tho retail purchases decline. ~
"This means that after strikes are
settled there is general rush to
buy. The wage workers when re-
turning to work again feel prosper
Gus. They and their, families rush
to the stores and purchase goods.
The group of industries which have
been involved in the strike immedi-
ately receive an avalanche of orders.
They IN turn feel prosperous and
order new machinery and quantities
Of supplies. This sudden increase in
business from both wage workers
and employers is quickly felt by
the jobbers who in turn pour in or
ders upon the manufacturers.
"Thc immediate effect of this il
ito cause temporary scarcity Of
goods which in many instances re-
suits in the raising Of prices. There
fore, l should not be surprised to see
an increase in the wholeale prices
of many products this fall. In soma
sections of the country there will
be distinct shortage in some lines
of goods. Merchants, therefore, are
justified in stocking up now for fall
and winter trade. Those who have
contracts to fill should see that these
contracts are well covered. When
business is so dull as It Is at present
it is hard to bclive that few months

WOULD MARK HISTORIC
SITES TO AID TOURIST
Minnesota Historical Society
Site-Markins Plan Would
Increase Tourist Trade

Duluth, Mimi, July 29-Plans be-
ing developed by the Minnesota His
torical Society to bring about the
preservation and marking of historic
sites, if they materialize,. will play
an important part in building up
the summer tourist traffic to Min:
ncsota, according to Perry S Will
liams, Manager Of the Minneapolis
Journals Travel and Resort Bureau
who addressed the state convention
Of the Historical Society here Fri
day.
"This activity, which seeks to
bring about the proper marking and
preservation Of our historic spots
has very important bearing on
one Of the greatest industrial OPP
portunities for the State of Mime
sota," he said. e Minnesota's Won
dcrful vacation opportunities are at
tracing an ever increasing flow Of
tourists to this state. If in addition
to our good roads and our service
in guiding visitors over these roads
and to their vacation points, we add
the constant interest which is arous-
ed by marking the historical places
we will add greatly to the prestige
Of the state as place for the va
cationist The Historical Society, or
through it's influence some other in
stitution should publish a guide book
to Minncsota's historical places.
Such a book should describe briefly
the interesting events which make
each spot worthy of mark and also
give the method Of reaching the var
lous places by railroad and by high
way or water, as the case may be.
1.-The booklet should be put out
on basis which would make it
practicable to distribute it free in
large numbers through various chan
nels such as the one now offered
in the Minneapolis Journal Travel
and Resort Bureau.
"The proposed markings naturally
will attract the tourists to spots of
historical interest which otherwise
would not claim the attention of
the travellers because they do not
happen to be in a so-called resort
section" ....

TEN LAKES TOWNSHIP
FARMERS CLUB MEETS

On Thursday afternoon July q
there gathered ! at the farm of Art
IODINE in Ten Lakes Township a
ideal farmers club which is a live
organization Of; thoughtful people
who are bent upon improving the
local surroundings.
! "This is a beautiful country after
you get in" reports Assistant County
Agent Edison Washburn, but very
difficult to get in or out of it
owing. to the bad condition of the
roads and many lakes which must
be detoured, but with all we find a
class of thoughtful people from all
over the Northwest coming in to
make themselves better homes. Mr..
Rodine is an exservice man taking
vocational training and at present
is spending the summer here and
winter at school and developing his
farm as best heFcan."
Mr.. Washburn of the Land Clear
ing association attended the meeting
and gave a demonstration on the use
of explosives, both as to practice
and theory. Mr. Rodine being the
owner of good stump puller, they
were able to test the comparative
methods of blasting. for the stump
puller to follow, or blasting the
stumps entirely clear Of the ground.
This seemed to Sbe of considerable
interest to the farmers assembled.
Following this program Mr.. Nuzum
of Bemidji gave very interesting
and instructive talk on poultry, GULL
ing, feed and care, there being a
crop of hens AT hand on which Mr..
Nurzum demonstrated and described
the various methods Of judging a
laying hen. This was we'll rendered
and very earnestly received. They
hope to have many more such meet
ings in that district.

Washington, Julysa2s. q, United
Press Radio is taking the, world
by storm; reports from the depart
ment of Commerce show q,
No fad in recent years has spread
SO rapidly as the art Of listening in
on the air.
=, '"All over the globe bro adcasting
stations are daily disseminating
news, music, and commercial radio
news, ." says survey Of the depart
ment's electrical division.
"Outside of a few countries where
existing political conditions have i'm:
posed restrictions the use of the
radio has been taken up UNIVERSAL
.ly. The development has been most
rapid in this. country. In Europe.
in; South America, in Australia and
to- some extent Africa and Asia,
broadcasting stations are being in
stalled with resultant increasing
demand for receiving sets.
"In spite of an enorm ously in
creased manufacturing capacity
makers Of radio equipment are still
behind on their domestic orders and
this has naturally limited their in.
terest in export trade.
J Nevertheless the total volume OF
wireless equipment shipped abroad
during the first five months of this
year is more than 60 per cent of
the total for the calendar year 1921
and the inquiries from abroad have
increased considerably. AS produc-
tive capacity here catches up with
increased demand, a strong export
trade may be expected.
GAS an interesting feature of the
sales abroad, there has for several
months been considerable call for
receiving sets from. our neighbors
on the north and south-Can ada and
Mexico and Central America, Where
radio fans found that tube sets
would permit them to readily listen
in on some of the important Amer
lean broadcasting services"

be cut in half; in other words, mail
