Such is tho conclusion of tho Massachusetts commission on the cost of living, sas the New York World. It is a good deal like saying that the price of cake fixes the price of bread, but it is true, as common experi ence proves. So much leather is used nowadays in the manufacture of automobiles that hides arc higher, leather is higher and so on down step by step until the price of boots and shoes is raised. It is the same story with rubber. The demand for the crude material in the automobile trade has hoisted prices all along tho line, from overshoes to pneu matic tires, and most of all in London, for tho shares of new Scotch rubber-plantation companies. The more peo ple ride the more the man who walks pays for going afoot. The automobile has developed iuto an expensive luxury for the people who do not use it. . It has added to tho cost of maintaining the roads in good repair and of going well shod in dry and wet weather. It has created new styles of clothes and new resorts for dear food and drink. At the present rate of consumption lobsters and champagne are likely to go higher. Tho only thing that has been cheapened is human life. The cost of high living, as James J. Hill said, has made the cost of living higher. The auto mobile was well named "the devil wagon." A FITTING APPOINTMENT. (STATE OP OltEi in. t .

Theodore Roosevelt as special ambassador of the Unit ed States at King Edward's funeral was an ideal appoint ment. No other American could so fitly represent the great republic upon this solemn occasion as its only ex president; no other would be received in England in that capacity with such general satisfaction. The coincidence which found Mr. Roosevelt at this time aboard and able to discharge this duty was a fortunate one.

After 8trotching tho hoso, soveral automobiles ran over it, fortunately without damage. A severe penalty is provided for this offense, and Chief Amann nuuouncos that here after tho law will bo strictly enforc ed. "Thoro was no especial reason for tho automobiles to bo driven across tho firo hoso," said a- by stander. "Their timo was not so val uable that they could not havo waited a few minutes whilo that small firo was being extinguished or havo made a short dotonr nnd avoided tho fire hoso.

I have always maintained 'Bids will that if thorough fall spraying is practiced and if tho application of 5-5-50 Bordeaux is made before the winter rains begin there will be no need for any summer applications. It is a well-known fact that the peach and Japanese plum arc readily defoliated by fungicides such as Bordenux and lime-sulphur, and, if weather conditions are unfavorable, tho strength of either formula, as has been advised by others, will al ways produco injury. I have readily produced almost complete defoliation in test plots by spraying with dilu tions of 1 to 50, 1 to 75 and eien 1 to 100 of lime-sulphur, having n 30 degreo Baumo test. From this it can be cecn that the uso of 1 to 30 or 35 is certainly a long way below tho danger limit, nnd if weather conditions are moist or rainy, almost complete destruction of tho foliage and fruit will be tho re sult in case such concentrations are used. I have also caused very sori oub defoliation by tho uso of Bor deaux of 3-9-50 strength that is, 3 pounds of copper sulphate, 0 pounds of lime nnd 50 gallons of water although when wcathor conditions were perfectly dry no injury was caused by oven 5-5-50 Bordeaux.
