This being so, the man who asked William J. Bryan whether he really believed in advertising, paid Mr. Bry- an a compliment. It happened in Reading, Pa, last winter, and the modern Commoner indeed showed that he was a wise man by the reply he made, “The fellow who tries to attract business without ad- vertising is like the fellow who ilrows kisses his sweetheart a silent kiss in the dark. He knows what he is doing—but nobody else does.” 1t was: Collier's Weekly of September 9 contains an editorial under the cap- tion “Minnesota Land.” When na- tional magazines are attracted with the possibilities of this great state’s resources it is high time that the state do all in its power to bring these recourses and these possibili- ties before the seekers of opportuni- ties so forcibly that none will pass them by. The editorial follows: Minnesota Land. Once more let us impress upon the people of Minnesota the fact that their public lands are not going into the hands of farmers. There was slipped through the last Legislature § alaw removing all requirements from buyers, making of the State a ‘spec- ulators’ paradise.

The object of the State’s policy is naturally to put the land in the hands of the settlers as cheaply as possible, and thus encourage the development of its resources and the individual ownership-of the land. The present State Highway Commission is doing commendable work; but in the past the people of.Minnesota "have spent vast sums of money for roads without an actual present value of more than ten per cent of the amount invested. Recent laws have bettered road conditions. Those who have de- manded that Minxiesota apply modern methods of community settlement, of pushing the roads in before the set- tler, of helping him if need be, have been howled down as fanatics. The settler who has gone on to State lands, far from railroad and schools, without roads or neighbors, on the promise of conditions shortly being bettered, has been sorely disappoint- ed. There has been no intelligent vision in-the methods of the State officials. Minnesota is the gateway to the great Northwest. It is an agri- cultural empire. It is only a ques- tion of brief time when its prairies will fill with sturdy citizenship, as sturdy as that of its present towns 1t is up to the State now to keep an eye on the men whom it has entrusted with the protection of its public lands. If this is not done, the advancing settler will pass across Minnesota’s borders into more invit- ing fields.

Few housewivesiiof the city realize: that pear§ and:peaches purchased by the box are very cheap right at the pres- ent time. The fruit market has pre- sented a rather unusual situation this season and the fact that fruit could not be bought at reasonable prices when in an ordinary season, it is plentiful and cheap has led the con- sumers generally to think that the present season' is a poor one to buy fruit. This, however, is decidedly not the case. The California fruit sea- son this year is from two to three weeks later than usual and peaches, pears, oranges, etc., are'coming in in splendid quality and quantity. The housewife who is interested in having the best for winter at the cheapest possible price should not ov- {erlook the opportunity the market is going to offer during the next few weeks. Naturally there has been lit- tle change in fruit prices when they are bought by the dozen or in other small quantities but purchased by the box the best value for the money is secured. There is going to be a plen- tiful supply of grapes at reasonable prices when the Michigan Concords come in. » Michigan has an unusually large crop of excellent grapes this year. | The early supply of apples would in- dicate that there is going to he a wealth of this popular fruit during the coming months. The first sup- ply of ecrabapples is now the wane ply of crabapples is now on the wane and the mealy apples are making The Montana crabapple crop will, however, be on the market in about ten days_and a plentiful supply of high quality fruit may be expected according to reports received regard- ing the crop. Last year all of the ap- ples were received from the west. This year Michigan, Iowa, Wisconsin, southern Michigan, lowa, Wisconsin, southern Minnesota, in fact that group of states known as the central states are furnishing a splendid sup- ply. The plum season is now on the wane, but there are still some fine preserving purposes on the market. There is not going to be any low prices on canned or pressed fruit during the coming winter owing to the fierce competition during the ear- ly_season between the big canning companies, evaporated: fruit compa- nies and pressed fruit concerns. In their eagerness to get the supply of fruit, the competitors bid the price away up for the early fruit so that canned goods are going to cost the jobber a stiff price and the consumer will also come in for a like price in case he must buy canned goods. ‘The advantage therefore in buying the pears and peaches at their present low prices is very evident. The Bartlett pears from California and Washington are on the market and the season for the Elberta and Crawford peaches from Washington is also at hand. Last year Texas fur- nished $50,000 cars of peaches, while this year only 20 per cent of a crop is being furnished. The Texas crop, however, has no especial effect on lo- cal markets except in so far as to influence the price of early fruit. Peaches during the early season were scarce and high, but they are now plentiful and reasonable. The cen- tral states are showing a much larger crop of fruit than last year which is having its influence on the market. It is not often that the fruit crop is underestimated as it has been this year, but this mistake on the part of the big concerns means that the consumer will get the benefit and the unexpected quantity of fruit will be given to the consumer at lower prices. The value of fruit as food is too well known for the consumer to overlook taking advantage of the op- portunities offered. “I have a world of confidence in Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for I have used it with perfect success,” writes Mrs. M.

When James Russell Lowell was minister to England he was guest at a banquet at which one of the speak- ers was Sir Frederick Bramwell. Sir Frederick was to respond to the toast “Applied Science.” It was long after midnight when thé toast was pro- posed, and several speakers were still to be called. Rising in his place, the sclentist said: “At this hour of the night, or, rath- er, of the morning, my only interest in applied science is to apply the tip of the match to the side of the box upon which alone it ignites and to apply the flame so obtalned to the wick of a bedroom candle.” A moment later Lowell tossed a pa- per across the table to him bearing these two lines: Oh, brief Sip Frederick, would that all could catch Your happy talent and supply your match!
