Creating Wealth

A man named Holden lives In

.He has succeeded in creating wealth. He has created wealth to the extent of hundreds of thousands of dollars millions. . Yet he Is not rich. g Is he a spendthrift? Far from It. . .He hss created that wealth for the state. Holden Is the head of the agricultural extension work of Iowa State collegellolden of Ames.

Three or four years ago Holden was sent to Iowa with a special train. ' Tho railroads of Iowa paid all the expenses of the trip. Why? Simply because Holden was creating wealth. ' That's why for there are pretty good business mcu at the head of the railroads. They. know. And the farmers know. - It Is money In both their pockets. For the farmers are pretty good business men too.

Holden was showing them how to Increase the yield of corn 50 per cent. That Is a bio; gain in any business. iiolden did this by the "individual car row- and the "germination box." Yes, they are new fangled ideas. So Is the telephone, the daily market "report In the newspaper so is the automobile, so is the latest improvement on the binder and the mower. And these things all go together.

Now Isn't It Queer that though Iowa has the name for the best corn In the land, that Indiana raises better corn and more of it to the acre? Isn't it strange that Christie, of Purdue, was sent for last year to go out to- Ames and tell about his extension work? Isn't It queer that though we do all this that we hear more about Iowa than Indiana? " The time has come when Christie Is to come to Richmond. He too, has the story to tell of creating Wealth. It is more than a story It's a bank account. February 6-11.

That Ordinance

It Is a proof of the growing importance and the real growth of Rich' mond that a traffic ordinance was even considered by the common council. , That, therefore, can be set to one side. But the traffic ordinances of Richmond, though they have the same wording of the best traffic ordinances of the progressive cities of the country must bear the same relation to the town that traffic ordinances elsewhere do they must be nsed where needed. , . By this everyone knows that there is considerably more traffic at Sth and Main than on 21st street. And yet if there were to-be an encampment of several thousand people In the Glen the traffic ordinance would come into good play. A traffic ordinance is a police regulation. It is a good thing. But any police regulation must of necessity be left to the man on the spot. Every ordinance that we have is capable of such strict enforcement that life would become unbearable! ' (Have you ever read the ordinances of Richmond?) ' People must realize more and more as they look about them that a law Is simply the embodiment of popular thought. The popular thought of Richmond is that at such places as may be crowded, men must turn to the right and obey the officer in charge the officer in charge must have authority to back ' him up. It may be that the officer has enough power already but as far as Richmond is concerned the traffic ordinance means no more than that people should be careful about driving. , ! It we were to hazard a guess we should suppose that this had more to do with automoblllsts and dangerous violators of common decency and safety than jwlth the slow moving dray or the farmer with a load of hay. There are very few people that we know' of that have been run over by drays and hay wagons. But. now we all know that there Is an ordl-' nance and everyone will be more careful. That much good and it's a considerable good has been accomplished.

IN HISTORV'

A BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE PAST WEEK BY HENRY CLEWS

New York, Jan. 28. The event of the week was the sale of f 60.000,000 New York City bonds at an average price of 1100.904. While the price realized was not entirely up to expecta tions, the avidity with which the bonds were taken made the sale a suc cess, especially considering the free dom with which this city has been putting its obligations upon the market within the last few years. There is a limit to the demand for even such questionable security as a New York City bond,' which ranks among the very -highest of securities; and this limit is evidently approaching. The chief significance of the bond sale, however, was as a test of the investment situation. Evidently there is a very fair amount of capital seeking investment, but it insists upon good returns During the past two weeks there has been an excellent demand for bonds at all the financial centers, and the preference is plainly in favor of those which yield the larger returns when the issue also ranks high in safety. Fqur per cent bonds, unless of the most unquestionable security, are not now in demand, proving the law that when commodity values are high low interest-bearing ! securities suffer because their returns are inadequate. Many bonds have now declined to a position .which yields good returns, and this fact is being fully recognized by discriminating investors. President Taft's reciprocity bill is a step in the right direction. It is much more liberal than expected, and should receive the, prompt sanction of both the American and "Canadian legislatures. There is no reason why trade on the northern border should be compelled to flow only East and West. It should also flow both North and South, and would thus benefit both countries. The chief obstacle is the undue selfishness of certain localities and interests on both sides of the line. There is no sound reason why New England should not buy her coal in the best market, that of Newfoundland; nor why Canada should not draw upon our interior coal fields when to her best advantage. Both countries would benefit immensely by thus lowering the barriers upon trade, which, it should be remembered, could not exist unless mutually profitable. A strong argument In favor of the bill Is that it aims to reduce the cost of living on both sides of the border by enlarging the free list on foodstuffs and the necessities of life. There , will of course be great opposition to the proposal, but the discussion will at least be enlightening and every effort should be made to secure its adoption. Little change is observable in the local money market. Rates continue very easy, owing to the return of funds from the interior, and the best com mercial paper is quoted as low as 3a 4 per cent. Needless to say the latter fact is a helpful feature of much po tency in the business situation. Concerning the latter there is a disposition to take a somewhat more hopeful view. The effect of recent liquidation has been beneficial and general busi ness, it is recognized, has been con ducted on shch conservative lines for several months past as to materially restrain any further . depression. Shelves generally are bare of merchan dise. In some departments of indus try, notably iron and steel, orders have been held back for so long a period that there is a large accumulation of business which sooner or later must be transacted. It is also generally recognized that financial, industrial and commercial conditions at the East are much better than for several months. At the West the situation may be somewhat spotty, especially where

credit has been strained through overspeculation in land and irrigation projects. In that portion of the country there has been a moderate reaction, and business there, too, has been conducted on strictly conservative lines; all of which will certainly prove beneficial. For some time to come easy money rates are likely to prevail in New .York. The reduction in the Bank of England rate to 4 per cent however, was a favorable factor, showing a stronger position at that center. Europe has been a fair buyer of our bonds since January 1 and is reputed to have taken about $10,000,000 of the New York City issue. The effect of these transactions has been to in increase the supply of financial bills and slightly depress foreign exchange.

LIFE IN ICELAND. Farmhouses Ara- Built af Turf -and Often Have Earthen Fleers. The guest room la the Iceland farmhouse contained a narrow bed, a big round table an$ an organ made iu Brattleboro, Vt. Our host produced the usual box of snuff and with it a box of geod cigars. The host and hostess then showed us all over the house. It is a turf structure and is typical of the older farmhouses, with narrow, dark, win dowless corridors winding in labyrinthian maze from room to room. One passageway leads to a large open mound where a fire is made ta smoke meat and fish and Incidentally the whole bouse and everything in it. Another passage leads to another kitchen with a modern stove. The walls are all of turf, as Is tha roof, with just enough driftwood in the roef to make a framework to hold it In place. Very steep stairs lead up to the badstofa, or sleeping apartment The badstofa frequently forms the sitting and common workroom of the family, especially in winter, as wen as the sleeping room of the entire household. Bunks built into the wall extend around the room and are often filled with seaweed or feathers, over which Is thrown a fold or two of wadmal and a thick coverTet ef eiderdown. The floors are sometimes covered witb boards, but more often consist of damt earth. From the ceiling are suspender numerous articles of domestic econ omy, while large - chests containing clothing and valuables are scarterei throughout the house. Springfield He publican.

WHAT'S THE USE? Dear. Editor; We have been read ing the new "right and left ordin ance and been led to exclaim as above, "what's the use. There is a law against bicycle riding on the sidewalk, but almost every day half grown, sometimes grown, boys are seen wheeling along, while ladies and children walking, get out of the way while they take the sidewalk. What's the use to protest? If one does, it is police court and a neighborhood row, which most self respecting citizens naturally avoid. We have noticed families working to beautify their yards, often these people are renters. planting grass seed, laying sod, all to have beautiful surroundings, but dogs boys, milk, delivery men and delivery boys, mail carriers and what not make a daily round across these yards and lots leaving after several months only their footprints to remind these home makers how hard they had worked to save the sod from the carelessness of these thoughtless ones. When we know better w,e ought to do better without the help of mayor, police or civic league. If one of these trespassers had the same experience at his home or farm, no doubt something would he done to stop it. No sensible man or woman likes to go out and request their milkman or mail carrier to use the sidewalk and yard walks. They think he knows better. If he don't, what's the use? These
