The following script from the editorial , pen of u Texas publisher is so unusually good in its clever parable explamw tion of a cpndition, that caught so many of "us suckers' in the heydays of rapid fire investing a condition, in fact, that still manages to continue and "catch" to a certain degree that we consider it well worth reprinting here. At least; it's good, interesting reading if it doesn't impress a good Jesson; Ten men who, were financiers chipped In 910 each and bought a fine cow that gave ten gallons of milk every day. .These men received one gallon ench day as his share. Soon the neighbors far and near heard about the wonderful cow and said to one another, "Think of getting a. whole gallon of milk every day. What a wonderful return pn a flO Investment. I wish X had a share In that cow." When this talk was repeated to the ten financiers who owned the cow, they went Into a huddle and one of them said, "Loot's give these I people what they want. Our Hhares In the cow cost us $10 each and we can ell other shares In the cow at the same price." So they wont to a printer and had, him atrjkc off 1,000 ahects of paper, bearing the legend, "One share In the cow." Then they sold 500 of these shares at 910 each, which brought them In $5,000 In cash. Then they divided the other 500 shares among themselves I as their reward for being so smart. Each man of the ten now had fifty-one shares, besides tlie cash, whereas In the beginning each man had but one share. But one of the ten began to worry. "Say, fellers," said he, "look here. Every fellow who bought a share In this cow will expect a gallon of milk tonight and the cow only gives ten gallons. When f the milk ts divided into one thousand and ten parts, thews share- holders won't get a spoonful. Shares will drop to nothing over- night. We'd better unload while we can." V.; i So the ten men went out on the street to find investors. Each of them sold the 50 shares that liad been awarded to him, and thus they obtained another $5,000 to be divided among themselves. But now night was drawing near and again one of the ten began to worry. "Fellers," aald he., "here's bound to be a big row ut milking time tonight. Haf ton abroad and pent utt lie each of tho .. share-holders to sign a proxy, authorizing you to cast aa you thlnJc jy. best the vote to which the share entltlos him. Then return with the proxies and we wl.U do some voting." r . At twilight the ten men met at the barn where the cow was kept , and In their hands were 1,000 signed proxies to represent the ab sent share -holders, and the ten were entitled In their own right, for each still had his original share. - WKATIJEK FOHECAKT Oregon: Fair tonlRht and Satur day; I reiv.ii iff temperature, out eust and frost In went portion umigiit; nwderale raatcrly wind offshore. hOVMi WKATIIKH .

It la hereby moved and ijccojkIihI that each of us receive a salary of one gallon of milk per day. All In favor say 'Aye'." - And then they milked tho cow!
