AFTER THE One of the first speech
GREAT PICNIC .es made by Mr. Wil
son after his nomi
nation last summer was at a rural
gathering in New Jersey. "Here we
are at a farmer's picnic," he said,
"and on this day I suppose we might
say that the farmers occupy the cen
ter of the stage in our politics. I have
seen the interests of a great many
classes specially regarded in legisla
tion, but I must frankly say that I
have seldom seen the interests of the
tfarme1- regarded in legislation." As
Governor of New Jersey, the state of
monumental favors to inflated corpor
ations, the farmer cay seem a small
figure in business. But there are
forty-seven other states, chiefly much
larger in area. They know more than
Mr. Wilson seems to know about the
homestead law passed by the Repub
lican party early in its history, about
many other laws to promote agricul
ture, irrigation, rural free delivery,
protection' and develpment of native
productions, crops doubled in a dec
ade, and other accomplished facts of
the same sort.
Starting with the fancy that Amer
ican farmers have been overlooked in
national politics Mr. Wilson draws
further upon nis imagination by add
ing: "Anu one of the greatest im
positions upon the farmers of this
country that has ever been devised
A Greater Production
Foodstuffs Must Be
Obtained . -
By Professor MILTON WHITNEY, Chief of the United States
Eureau of Soils
roars - - JCTTrrg;
HK country is advancing. People are living better than ever
before. As a result we are stronger phvsioallv and tnentallv.
We are CONSUMING MO UK FOODSTUFFS fF!-f
CAPITA THAN T 1 1 K POPULATION OF THE EURO
PEAN C0lTjSTTKIES. and I would not for a moment attempt to
discourage less food consumption.
But it is plain that until we get a larger siipriv of foodstuffs and if
the period of high salaries continues we van expect the present high
cost of living to continue.
For instance, in the states north of the Potomac river and east
of the Ohio river th area under cultivation hi this territory is eati
mated at a little over 40,000,000 acres. Added to this is 27,000.000
acres used for forestry. So we have over 42.000.000 acres of idle land
in the territory lying in those states.
During the past thirty years the amount of land in use has steadily
decreased until it is now about TWENTY PER CENT LESS
THAN IN 1880, while the country as a whole ha? been growing at
a phenomenal rate. -
The conditions in the eastern section of the country are similar to
those existing in other sections of the country. So whether the 'st
of living is to be reduced or not it is perfectly plain to even the lav
man mind that to feed the present and constant growing population
of the country A GREATER PRODUCTION OF FOOD
STUFFS MUST BE RAISED.
TO DO THIS MORE PEOPLE HAVE GOT TO RETURN TO THE
FARMS. IT IS NECESSARY TO PUT MORE LAND UNDER CULTI
VATION, MORE IMPROVED METHODS OF AGRICULTURE AND MORE
INTENSIFIED FARMING MUST-BE FOLLOWED.

is the present tariff legislation of the
United States." Mr. Wilson is an
academic free trader, and now in a
special . position to urge upon Con
gress the passage of a free-trade law.
He has already told the farmers that
a protective tariff is one of the great
est impositions that have afflicted
them, and that they have been crowd
ed away from the center of the stage
to their loss and neglect. Look out
now for a great farm uplift from this
professor.
BUILD THE ELEVATOR While the!
SOON AS POSSIBLE Enterprise be
lieves the com
mittee named by the city council to
aake preliminary arrangements for
the elevator at the bluff, which was
authorized by the people at the last
election, is doing its work thorough
ly, the committee should not forget
that the elevator is an urgent need
and should be erected as soon as pos
sible. This town has outgrown steps.
It is no longer a stairway town. It
is a live, up-to-date city and the peo
ple at the polls have spoken in no
uncertain language regarding the erec
tion of au elevator. The thing to do
is to start work at once, if possible,
and build the lift the people want.
That an elavator to the hill section i
will be of great benefit to all sections !
is not questioned by persons alive to I
the interests of the city. It will en-
hance the value of property on the j
hill and it will bring more patronage j
to the merchants of Main Street. The
electorate of this city never did a
wiser thing than when it authorized
this improvement. The city council
should beed the wishes of the people
and have the elevator built as soon
as possible.

Parcels in the mails must not be 1
so tightly sealed that their contents
can not be readily examined by the

about the postmistress and postal cards !

ENTERTAIN AT SALEM
(Salem Statesman.)
The social season that opened so
auspiciously with Governor and Mrs.
West's reception on New Year s
night promises to be one of unusual
brilliancy even in the annals of the
Capital city, deservedly famous for
its recherche affairs. The most bril
liant event so far was the unique and
delightful musicale -'at which Mrs.
William Brown, Mrs. W. H. Eldridg'e
and Mrs. Clifford Brown were hostess
es on Thursday afternoon. The occa
sion also marked the opening of the
beautiful . reception, auditorium and
women's rooms of the new Masonic
temple. Exquisite floral decorations
of palms and ferns, relieved by mass
es of pink carnations, charming bits
of furniture, ariental rugs and cozy
corners enhanced the effect of the
mural decorations. ',At every step
the guests were surprised by some
new and charming feature in this
modern fairyland.
The hostesses received in the spa
cious reception room where the soft
oriental color scheme assisted by the
subdued overhead lights, brought out
the ncn tones of their beautiful

Scattered about the rooms were a
number of Salem's most popular ma
trons, smartly gowned, adding gaiety
and distinction to the scene. Seldom
at an afternoon function have so many
beautiful gowns "been in evidence.
The guests presented a kaleidoscopic
effect of lovliness against the stately

Rarely has a Salem audience had
the pleasure of hearing two such ar-
tists as Mrs. Neita Barlow Lawrence
and Mrs. Imogene Harding Brodie.
Mrs. Brodie of Portland studied un
der Arens of New York for several
years and sang one of his composi
tions during the afternoon. Her work
was finished and artistic. Mrs. Law
rence of Oregon City comes of a mus
ical family, being an aunt of Mrs.
Beatrice Dierke, the noted pianist.
She received her musical training in
San Francisco. Their different num
bers were received with rounds of ap
plause and it was difficult to choose
between the deep sad tone of Mrs.
Lawrence's 'dramatic voice and the
exquisite finish and charm of Mrs.
Brodie's. In the beautiful duet, "Oh!
That We Two Were Maying," they
sang together and the guests knew
then that they loved them both.
Miss Aiton, the talented young vi
olinist,, played several large numbers
with unusual dash and verve. She
was a great favorite in all of her
numbers but quite carried away the
listener's with her fine rendering of
"The Devil's Trill."
Mrs. Lawrence was beautifully
gowned in blue and silver chiffon
cloth over blue charmeuse paneled
in white Chantilly lace.
Mrs. Brodie wore an exquisite shade
of amethyst velvet. She wore a gold
butterfly in her coiffure and her cor
sage boquet was of roses and violets.
Miss Aiton's frock of ecrise chiffon
trimmed with black velvet and chif
fon roses was much admired.
Mrs. W. H. Burghardt, Jr., and
Miss Gesner presided at the piano
alternately. Mrs. Burghardt was in
black charmeuse with red carnations,
Miss Gesner in blue silk.

HIS TROUBLE
NOT OF HEART
Real Facts In Regard To F. R.
Huffman's Illness. Relief Ob
tained By Curing His
Stomach Ailments.
Waynesville.N. C Mr. F. R. Huffman,
of this city, says : "I suffered dreadfully
with what I thought was heart trouble,
and tried various medicines in vain.
After other remedies had failed, Thed
ford's Black-Draught restored me to
health. I would not feel safe without
Black-Draught in the house. I consider
it worth its weight in gold.
It cured my indigestion, and by this
means I was restored to health. I can
not express my gratitude for its benefits."
Good health depends on the condition
of your digestion. Poor digestion and
good health do not go together.
Thedford's Black-Draught will
thoroughly cleanse and set in order your
digestive system.
It has done this for others, during the
past 70 years, and is today the most
popular vegetable liver remedy on tha
market. Try it.
