rich natural resources that We
have gone along carelessly for gen.
erations and are only beginning to
open our eyes to the possibilities Of
economy by the salvage route.
This is true of all industries, in
varying degrees.
For instance, the early farmers
in America mined the soil rather
than farmed it. They Slapped the
very life from wonderfully rich
and fertile earth-drained it Of the
best part Of its vitality-and it is
only within comparatively few
years that there has been any wide
spread movement to replenish the
soils richness by commercial fer
tilizer. ~,
There's a saying that Europe
could live on the food we Ameri-
cans waste in our garbage pals. An
exaggeration, yes; but it illustrates
"a true principle. Slowly, however,
we are leraning to economic with
food, though a period Of prosperity
quickly starts the garbage pals
overlooking.
The cream has been skinned
from our natural resources. Scien-
title economy is becoming compul-
sorry And economy on a big scale
will be worked out in the labora-
tories. a tremendous start has al
read been made in that direction.
Our future gold mines will be in
the waste basket, the garbage pail,
the ash heap and the trash pile.

FROM WASTE PAPER

In New York the Waste Paper

prices, petition the attorney gen

that the Salvation army, by con

is violating the provisions of the
act under which it was created as
a religious and charitable corpora
ton.
For instance, in one mase, the
army bid $1.37 per 100 pounds for
old paper, while, the next highest
bid, by a commercial competitor
was only G5 cents per 100 pouncs.
The average reader will not be

New York City alone is a 15-miI-

The money for this construction

ways by which big fortunes will be
made in the future.

HOW ONE FARMER
GOT HIS FARM.

Twenty thousand carloads of
stones were picked up and hauled
away by ]. P. Observation-Disclosures
in clearing land for his farm in
Sweden. SO no one objects to his
winning this years first prize of
the Swedish Agricultural Associa-
ton.
Wen call him Jake for short.
In 1895 he took there acres that
TO one else wanted; it was such
a rock pile. Patiently he set to
work, digging up the boulders.
Finally he had the stones all re-
moved and the soil bearing crops.
Generally, with profits saved from
his havests he bought more rock
pile. Now he has SO acres, 10 de-
voted to crops which support him
and his family, and 70 acres Of
forest which he planted.
Jake used his 10000 carloads
of stones to build beautiful wall
around his farm and a fine high
way along one side.
He and his wife can take things
more easily now, for their nine
children-whose living was wrested
frdm a hopeless-a-looking strip Of
land as can be found almost any
where-now are assisting in the
work.
How many men would have the
patimce, and The confidence in
thef own efforts to attempt the
tasE unaeftaken BY Jake back in
1888
Eis success demonstrates that
SUCCESS is largely up to the individ-
ual himself, that no handicap is
TOD Big to be overcome, that man
car create his own opportunity
The story Of Jake's life is
enough to make some Of the rest
of us ashamed of ourselves when
we grumble or become discouraged
at our lot, though we have easy
shedding compared with Jake.
viii power can overcome the
lack of opportunity.
A city man, living a relatively
soft existence, can't help but mar
vel at what Jake has accomplished.
And yet Jake's career is symbolic
of what farmers are doing all over
the world, especially the pioneers
at the outskirts of civilization.
Respect the farmers, you city
chaps, for they are the foundation
stones of civilization and carrying
a tremendous burden. Considering
the financial reward they get most
of the time, in comparison with
metropolitan income, it's a wonder
most of them aren't anarchists.
The champion agitators and com
planners, however, are city loafers
who never did an honest days
work.

A BALLAD OF AN EMPTY STOMACH

/ ,
The world is reeking with wrath and woe
And things hurryng to decay
The country's ruined, believe me, DO,
And there's the devil and all to pay!
The Skies are sullen and dull and gray,
My purse is thin and it's getting thinner;
However, there is this much to say,
Maybe I'll feel better after dinner!
My fond illusions have lost their glow,
May various idols have feet of clay;
find existence exceeding slow,
And there's the devil and all to pay!
My hopes seem all Of them gone astray
(But it may be due to my craving inner,
So l won't poison myself today.
For most of the worries that fret me so
Are due to hunger l can allay,
And though my spirits are falling low
And there's the devil and all to pay,
A steak and some fried potatoes may
Convince me l am a certain winner;
Though things seem all in terrible way,
Maybe I'll feel better after dinner
ENVOY
So though I'm awfully far from gay,
And there's the devil and all to pay,
And life seems tough to a-suffering sinner
Maybe I'll feel better-after dinner.

THE FATAL.
SHOT.

You recall Gavrio Prinzep, the
boy-assassin whose bullet started
the trouble between Austria and
Serbia in. 1914 and thereby pre-
cipitated the World war.
Prof, Stanoyevitch of University
of Belgrade, publishes a pamphlet
attributing leadership of the assas-
sination plot to Dragutin Dimitriye-
witch, lieutenant colonel and form
er leader of the Serbian military
party.
At the last minute he apparent
ly changed his mind and tried to
call off the assassination, but the
situation had gotten beyond his
control. Curiously enough, he had
the idea that impesding warfare
between Austria-Hungary and Ser.
bia could be avoided by killing
Archduke Ferdinand.
Dimitriyeyitch was court-martiaI,
ed and shot in 1917 in connection
with another murder. plot. He was
about 30 years. old when he de-.
parted this life.
Prof. Stanoyevitch's pamphlet
is historically important, for he had
access to Sinside information. He
seems sincerely convinced that the
Serbian government did not know
of the assassination plot.
Many people will comment: "Tbe
war had been brewing for many
generations, SO it cannot be traced
to any act of any one individual"
However, is that true? The So
cialists We're close to gaining the
whip-hand in Europe when the war
rushed them off their feet. And
it is, at least, remotely possible,
that the war might have been
avoided if a half-witted racial
youth, spurred on by moron milf
tarist, hadn't loaded his pistol and
set off the fireworks.
The world is making terrible
mistake if it inclines to attribute
the great war to fate-that it was
inevitable.
Yes, things might have been diff
ferent-tremendously different :
if the boy-assassin hadn't cut loose
with his pistol.
It's too late now, of course, to
unscramble the eggs. But the pis-
tol of Gavrio Prinzep should make
