It will not be long until the of

It takes gome people all their
fives to lourn that a man who
iloean't make many promises doesn't
have munv to perform or break.
In Europe they are discussing
the Advisability ot making sailors
ont of women. Whereupon a cynic
remarks that the idea will novel
be popular with the women of
America since the first thing re
quired of a Bailor is obedience.
If the European grain crop turns
out to be as much of a failure as is
now predicted the ranks of the
Amorican nobility now headed by
the cattle, iron and coal barons will
"hsTe an addition in the persons of
the corlt and wheat barons.
General cleetiens will be hold on

New York, North Dakota and
Pennsylvania.
The fallowing very fair snake story
we copy from an exchange: "Harry
emu to the front this week with an
other snake story. He says, when a
hoy, he was plowing, and unearthed a
large rattlesnake which, In his efforts
to get revenge bit the mold-board of his
plow and before he could unhitch the
horaes the beam of the plow had swol
eu so much that it cracked open."
The greatest boom failure in the his
tory of the world is probably that of
Pasco. Keep your eye on Pasco for
only three seconds and you can see the
whole town, an almost depopulated
place, with a fifteen thousaud dollar
school house in the midst and about
half a dozen children to enter it, It
makes one's eye balls ache to watch
the spectacle. The bubble Is burst and
it Is lime to quit making bubbles-

lest the editor should think them anx
ious to see their names in print. He
will think nothing of the kind, but on
the contrary; he is glad to get such
Hems. Many seemingly unimportant
notes when printed, are news to
large number of readers.

WHFAT GOING UP.
The news of the sudden jump
f neat nas (aeon toward tuo high
water mark will no doubt lie re
ceived with a feeling akin to joy by
the farmer well stocked with this
commodity. The whole country is
interested in tire farmer receiving
u food round price for his grain
and, even though it may coome
01 us more vo supply ourselves witn
the staff of life when the price is
high, we will reap ths benefit that
must accrue to all from n general
prosperity among the farming pop
ulation. V
..if the- suddw rise has been
caused by an actual demand, be
cause nf (he scirrcity of the ptoduct
in Europe and growing out of Ger
many's increased demand the price
will undoubtedly remain up at a
ftgureJiigbiy remunerative to the
farmer. lti if the hand of the
speculator has been the most po
tent factor in the Win it will be
difficult to determine just how long
to hold grain for a big price or at
what stage of the market to sell.
It is always the unexpected the
grain gambler is trying to spring
ou the unsuspecting producer, and
until the backbone of the grain

price too abnormally high to corre
