We believe that we are particularly fortunate to be able to offer in
vestors and clients such an attractive issue of general obligation bonds as
these from the Province of Saskatchewan. Investors will immediately see that
these are very unusual securities, on account of the fact that they have behind
them all the taxable resources of the entire province, all of the taxable prop
erty and wealth being pledged to the payment of both interest and principal
as they become' due. The full faith and credit of the Province, backed by
all its resources, guarantee these bonds. The interest yield of 6 is ex
ceedingly profitable. On account of the great desirability of these bonds
we ask -interested parties to call as soon as possible, or wire orders at our
expense. Be a coupon clipper.

Extension of Credits to Europe Will
Raise Prices Here, as Food Goes
Out and Gold Comes In.
That there is a decline in the cost of
living in some directions Is a feature of
the business situation that Is receiving con
sideration these days. Foreign trade has a
great effect upon prices in the United
Mates, and some writers take the atti
tude that extension of further credits to
Europe are calculated to be reflected In
continued high prices here. Tbe monthly
letter of the Alexander Hamilton Institute,
in commenting upon this phase of the
matter, aays:
During tbe past two months corn has
decreased about 45 cents a bushel, oats
15 cents, lard 10 cents a pound, and live
beef In Chicago about 15 per cent. Family
mess beef Is t'JD per barrel against $42
last April, and pork mess has declined
from 60 to $50 per barrel. There has
been an increase, however. In poultry,
eggs, butter and the better grades of meat,
and little reduction in clothing and house
hold goods. Automobile prices for next
year are being advanced.
Whatever relief la to be obtained must
come from an Increase in the volume of
supply, from greater temperance and
dared by Dr. G. A. Sheafe. president
ot the Washington Children's Home
society yesterday, to be the leading
causes of delinquency among juve
niles. Dr. Sheafe formerly was' head
of the state industrial school in Che
halis. He was attending the annual
Child Welfare conference here and
was one of the speakers Friday night
before its opening session.
"When a boy can earn $5 a day,"
Dr. Sheafe said, "he thinks he is as
good as anybody and can spend his
money as he pleases. Too much
money and too many automobiles
these are the causes."
discipline In consumption and a diminu
tion of buying on personal credit which is
merely another form of living on capital
instead of income. The recent decline in
com was largely due to an increase In the
estimates of production, and the decline
in cotton prices last month seemed di
rectly connected with the check to buying
on credit In Europe arising from the col
lapse of the foreign exchanges.
In looking to the future, it would seem
that if the countries of Europe are left to
work out their own salvation by hard work
and increased production Instead of by ob
taining further credit in the United States,
the supply of food and the supply of cloth
ing will be sufficiently plentiful to produce
a gradual and permanent decline In the
cost of living. If our government were to
endorse the promissory notes of European
purchasers to the extent of hundreds of
millions of dollars, however, there would
be an outflow of goods which would make
for continued scarcity. The fact that we
have been exporting more goods than we i
have Imported is the crux of the matter of
living costs. Our surplus exports have
been paid for with cargoes of gold and
European securities, and the possession of. PENDLETON, Or., Oct 12 (Spe
